“It is here.”

The place they arrived with Hao Mundo was a fairly large house. Similar sized houses were clustered nearby. It seemed to be a town where people with little money lived.

There was a long wall of high walls, and in the middle was a large, tightly closed door. Byeok Tae-san tilted his head in front of the door.

“Are you sure you are here?”

“Yes. I’m sure. His name is Seung Do-heung. He was a master of considerable skill. However, it was not a well-known name. He moved to Uichang three months ago and has lived in this house ever since.”

Tae-san, who nodded once at the information Hao Mundo was reciting, approached the door and gently pushed it with his hand.

Then, the door opened gently. Haomundo’s eyes widened. That door was obviously locked.

However, looking at it now, it didn’t seem like that.

‘Is it strange? Seung Do-heung is really strict with only one thing?’

Hao Mundo hurriedly followed Byeok Tae-san into the house.

“There are a lot of people who live here. So, please say goodbye to me at once…”

His words didn’t go any further. The chill he felt the moment he entered the house made him shut his mouth.

His experience of sneaking into countless houses was telling him. It was going to be really hard to find people in this house.

“This house is empty.” Haomundo nodded his head at Byeok Tae-san’s words. “Yeah, it seems so.”

Byeok Tae-san strode past the garden and entered the building. The inside of the building was empty. No one stole the furniture or anything. There was no sign of touching anything.

He probably didn’t touch the furniture on purpose. If one were to take things outside or break them inside, there was a high chance that they would be revealed.

Byeok Tae-san went inside and looked around, then snapped his finger at Hao Mundo. Haomundo quickly approached Byeok Tae-san.

“Are you tracking me?”

“I can do it, but there are people who are better than me when it comes to tracking. May I call you?”

When Byeok Tae-san nodded, Hao Mundo ran out and came back after a while. He then delivered the instructions of Byeok Tae-san to Hao Mundo, who was nearby.

Soon, the three Hao Mundo rushed in.

“I heard you found it.”

“Examine the traces in this. Find out where these guys have gone.”

“Yes.”

At this, the Haomundos quickly dispersed and began to look for traces. Byeok Tae-san had no intention of entrusting everything to them alone.

Slowly looking around the house, he carefully grasped the traces or the flow of qi. “He said he was a jinbeopga, and he also put jinbeop in his house.”

Hao Mundo, who was standing next to him, was startled by the murmuring of Byeok Tae-san.

“Are you saying that there is a truth in this house?”

“Okay.”

Of course, he didn’t know what the truth was. However, there was a truth that was not quite small in scale.

“Hmm.”

Byeok Tae-san carefully observed the flow of Qi. In addition to this, he figured out the structure through it.

“It smells like blood.”

If it smelled like blood, it meant that blood was spilled here. “How long do you think this house has been vacant?”

“It must have been over a month, at least.”

A faint smell of blood still lingered, even after a month has passed, indicating that a lot of blood had been spilled. Something had happened.

Byeok Tae-san then stood there and waited for a while. First, Hao Mundo must find a clue to their pursuit. If this was broken, it would be quite difficult to find traces.

“I found traces.”

“Okay?”

Byeok Tae-san laughed and raised his feet. Everyone looked at Byeok Tae-san with bewildered expressions.

Byeok Tae-san slammed his foot down.

Thud! A gigantic echo spread out in all directions, centering on the foot of Byeok Tae-san. The Hao Mundos were standing next to Mt. Byeoktai and felt that an invisible force was pushing them away.

Eventually, it was pushed back. Awesome! The sound of something twisting and breaking could be heard throughout the house.

Byeok Tae-san stood still and moved while looking to one side. “Anyway, the insidious things called Jinbeopga don’t change.”

The Haomundos followed Byeok Tae-san with expressions that could not be understood. The place where Byeok Tae-san was headed was the backside of the building. Those who arrived at the support opened their eyes wide to see the change from before.

A pit had formed in the corner of the backing. It was as if something underneath had fallen and the soil had been rolled up. With that, jinbeop installed in this house was meant to cover that pit.

As Byeok Tae-san destroyed the jinbeop, a pit that had been covered by the jinbeop appeared. Byeok Tae-san strode towards the pit. All of the Haomundos were attached to the back of Byeok Tae-san and followed them with curious expressions.

Inside the pit was a box made of porcelain iron. When Byeok Tae-san was beckoning, one of Hao Mundo quickly went down to the pit and took out a box. Then, after shaking off the dirt from the box, he politely presented it to Byeok Tae-san.

Byeok Tae-san received the box, which had no seams in it. It was as if it was made by melting and hardening ink iron in a box-shaped frame.

However, this was clearly out of the box. This was because his stomach was empty. The Hao Mundo looked at the box that Byeok Tae-san was holding with curious eyes. If it was a box like that, it seemed like it would have to be ripped off with force.

Actually, they were not confident, but if they were about Byeok Tae-san, they would be able to rip them off with just their fingers. However, Byeok Tae-san didn’t do that. He just looked around the box with strange eyes.

“Look at this?” Byeok Tae-san murmuring surprised Haomundo. The tone was so cold. It seemed to him that he could feel a soft life. click.

At this. Haomundo’s eyes widened. The box was opened as to what Byeok Tae-san did. It was obviously a seamless box, only the lid fell off.

Inside the box was a bluish vial and a needle made of iron. The vial had a tightly sealed mouth, and Byeok Tae-san pierced the vial with a needle.

With that, he sniffed the smell that was coming out of it. Byeok Tae-san checked the smell and then rubbed the hole with his finger.

Then, the hole drilled with the needle was filled like a ditch.

“Let’s go.” Byeok Tae-san swiveled his body and began to walk in stride. The Haomundos were panicked and followed them quickly.

Go Jun-kwang could not hide his cruel expression. “Under! It’s frustrating.”

It wasn’t funny. How the hell could this plan fail? In this plan, there was only one goal set by Go Jun-kwang. It was to kill or capture Byeok Tae-san.

And so, he mobilized every available force. In order to eliminate uncertainty, it was difficult to bring in the margin tube. In fact, Ma Jin-kwan was a person who should not be attracted like this.

This was because he had other missions. Still, he was confident. He believed he would definitely be able to handle it if Margin Coffin helped him. Margin tube was stronger than Gokyang head.

With the addition of the four blood and the demon sword, he didn’t think it was a matter of dealing with a single mountain of wall. In addition to this, he gathered all those who fed the Jeunghyeoldan and sent them to the Heukcheolbang.

He also wielded most of the improved blood daggers. If this was enough, even if Homuryeonju was there, he would have been able to kill him.

Go Jun-gwang shook his head sharply. “Who the hell was there to make this happen?”

In the past, there were some prejudices about Byeok Tae-san.

However recently, there had been no such prejudice. From what he found out after removing the prejudice like that, Byeok Tae-san was definitely under Majingwan. And so, it was reasonable to judge that someone had an assistant.

However, Go Jun-kwang’s thoughts were leaning toward whether he had misjudged Byeok Tae-san’s power rather than his assistant.

“Hey, what good is that now?”

Anyway, he was done now. The consequences of this would soon reach the lord’s ears. The last chance given to him flew away.

One would probably die when you return. However, there would be a difference between dying painfully or dying cleanly.

“If you want to die cleanly, you have to take care of the rest.”

Go Jun-kwang muttered like that, got up from his seat, and walked to the window. He was now at the top of the five-story pavilion. There was a fairly large garden outside the window, and the garden was full of Bangangsi.

If only those anti-gangsters were well taken care of, they might die cleanly.

“Oh, and he was there too.”

Go Jun-gwang frowned as he remembered a person. The disposition for the very quirky guy who was about to hit the back of the head a while ago must also be decided slowly.

Of course, he almost made up his mind. He would go where his master was and rob him of his talents. That was, until he died of old age or exhaustion.

“Well, because he was a man of considerable skill.”

* * *

Hao Mundo called Byeok Tae-san with an anxious expression.

“I… Confucius.”

Byeok Tae-san did not stop walking and turned his head slightly to look at Hao Mun-do, who spoke.

“If you go this way, you will get out of the spear.”

“I know.”

Hao Mundo was startled and asked quickly. “May I know where the destination is? I would like to contact my colleagues in advance.”

That way, it will be convenient for you, and if you have the information you want, you will be able to find out in advance.

“I still don’t know. If you go this way, where are you going?”

Hao Mundo quickly responded to Byeok Tae-san’s words with a bewildered expression.

“Once you keep going this way, you will find a dangyang, but… Is your destination Dangyang?”

“It is very likely the case.”

However, one would have to go all the way to the end. Now, Byeok Tae-san was following Chujonghyang. The box of ink iron found at Seung Do-heung’s house earlier was a box made with a special secret in the Cheonma Shinkyo. It wasn’t just a simple box, it was a special box in which all the contents would melt if not opened in a certain way.

In addition to this, what was in the bottle inside the box was the drug used to track the follower. It was also a follower incense used in the Cheonma Shinkyo.

The basic recipe was changed in various ways, so that each person who used the follower incense had a different scent. In order to track the follow-up scent, you must use a special drug made together with the follow-up scent.

And so, Byeok Tae-san’s conclusion was, it was said that Seung Do-heung, a lawyer, belonged to the Cheonma Shintokyo, and prepared for the follow-up in anticipation of what would happen to him.

The smell of the incense was very faint. If it wasn’t for Byeok Tae-san, it might have been difficult to track. In addition to this, if more time passed like this or if Seungdoheung moved to a more distant place, it may not be able to find it.

“Hurry up.” Byeok Tae-san’s speed increased faster. The Haomundos were frightened and followed Mt. Byeoktai.

However, the gap was getting wider. Soon, the appearance of Byeok Tae-san became a black dot and disappeared.

“What?”

One of Hao Mundo looked at his colleagues with a puzzled expression.

“What, what, how? Let’s go to Dangyang You put a chimney on the side of Dangyang. You go back to Uichang and report. I’ll go to Dangyang.”

At this, the Haomundos moved hastily. If one hurried, they would probably be able to move the Haomundos on the Dangyang side at the right time.

* * *

The smell of chaojong incense grew stronger. After entering Dangyang,

Byeok Tae-san moved along the smell to some extent and then slowed down a bit. The principle of follow-up incense was that a person who put incense on his body left a scent on the way he passed, and followed the path of the scent.

Due to this, there was no problem coming here to Dangyang. Whether one came here captured or trapped in a carriage, if one had a hole to breathe, the scent would continue to flow and land around you.

However, upon entering Dangyang, there was not a single road made of incense. The guy who took Seung Do-heung didn’t just go straight to his destination from here, but moved around in a complicated way. He didn’t know whether he had business in various places or to prepare for a possible chase, but the smell was intersecting everywhere, so it seemed that it would take some time to pursue it from here.

Of course, one would have to find it eventually. When Byeok Tae-san was moving along the incense, Haomundo from Dangyang quietly approached.

“I will see you, Master.” Byeok Tae-san nodded and continued to work.

Soon, he found the place where Seung Do-heung was captured. It was a fairly large manor, and the main gate of the manor led directly to the chapel.

Byeok Tae-san, who had been staring at the manor quietly, raised the corners of his mouth.

“After all, is it the law of heaven that if you do something good, you will be rewarded?”

There was definitely a lot of elixir feeling in this manor.
