“Ho ho ho. Do you really want to die, young master? If you had just asked properly, I would have obliged right away without you needing to do such a thing.”
“No way, Chief Yoo. How could I refuse a letter from you? I should open it in front of everyone with gratitude.”
Yoo Ho pronounced two words very quietly, lest anyone hear.
“Why don’t you just advertise that it’s from the Demonic Sect?”
That’s right. It was a letter from the Demonic Sect.
And instinctively, it seed like Little Heavenly Demon, Yeo Ha-ryoon, had sent it.
Jin Cheon-hee answered nonchalantly.
“Our dical pavilion has connections with the Demonic Sect too, you know.”
“That’s internal information, not sothing to be spread around the neighborhood, as you well know.”
While Hwaju dical Pavilion takes care of the righteous path and Dark Palace dical Pavilion the evil path, White Dragon dical Pavilion didn’t belong to either of those two paths.
Patients who ca to White Dragon dical Pavilion were accepted regardless of whether they were righteous or evil.
What mattered wasn’t the patient’s personal ideology or sect.
It was the disease the patient was suffering from.
It might sound impressive when put like this, but it’s a bit different.
To be more precise, the master didn’t discriminate in his thods when it ca to researching his own body.
Even if it was the Demonic Sect, he didn’t hesitate if there was a clue.
In a way, if you only consider the greed for knowledge, he might not be different from the Bloodborne Elder Eccentric.
It’s just that the master walked the middle path by packaging it in a clever way.
He accepts patients from the Demonic Sect.
While that’s a serious matter from the perspective of the righteous sects, it didn’t matter at all to Jin Cheon-hee, a modern person.
‘Not discriminating against patients and treating them all is a good virtue for a doctor.’
Jin Cheon-hee just smiled instead of answering.
“I want to open your head, young master. Alright. I’ll be going now, so open it leisurely by yourself.”
“Ah, you’re leaving?”
“Yes. After checking, there’s nothing dangerous inside. Well, those people have always been courteous to the dical pavilion, so it’s to be expected.”
“Okay. Then one more cup of tea.”
“Ugh. Alright, young master.”
Yoo Ho admitted defeat.
Jin Cheon-hee sat at the table in an empty room and examined the wooden box.
The wooden box was tied with a silk string, which was quite luxurious.
Jin Cheon-hee untied the knot and opened the wooden box.
Click-
The box, which had fit together perfectly like a single piece of wood, split in half with a sound.
A letter and a silk pouch.
The letter read:
-Although they said it was okay to send a letter from the sect, you’re the only person I could send it to, so I’m sending it like this.
I’m doing well and staying healthy. When the ti cos, I’ll co to see you.
Although the sender wasn’t written, it was clear who had sent it.
‘Has he already risen so much in rank? He’ll soon beco the Young Sect Leader at this rate?’
For a mber of the Demonic Sect to send a letter outside, you need to be at least that high in position. But this was too fast, even for that.
Wasn’t it supposed to take at least 5 years originally? What change could have…
‘Ah. I see. It’s because of my teachings.’
What Jin Cheon-hee had taught Yeo Ha-ryoon was just basic social skills.
Not the logic of power that martial artists use against each other, but just how people treat each other. It wasn’t anything special.
Common sense that everyone knows.
‘Judging by the stiff tone, it doesn’t seem like his personality has changed though. Hmm.’
And one more thing. Jin Cheon-hee had asked him to think three tis before killing soone.
Yeo Ha-ryoon said three tis was too slow, so he’d do it twice.
That’s what created this situation.
‘Scary guy. It couldn’t have been easy to overco the instincts of the Heavenly Killing Star.’
And one more thing.
‘He’s succeeded in suppressing the blood gu.’
The phrase “doing well and staying healthy” ant that.
He felt proud as a dical professional.
‘Well then, all that’s left is to open this silk pouch.’
It’s quite heavy.
Jin Cheon-hee opened the pouch. Inside was a jet-black bracelet.
As if to prove it was from the Demonic Sect, a black dragon decoration was coiled around the bracelet.
‘This, could it be… the one I saw in the novel? The one Yeo Ha-ryoon was supposed to be wearing himself?’
He wasn’t sure.
Jin Cheon-hee twisted the head of the black dragon.
Click–
A black thread so thin it was almost invisible to the eye appeared.
Though thinner than a thread, it’s sharp enough to cut flesh. That hidden weapon among hidden weapons.
‘Gasp, the Black Heavens Blood Thread? Why is this precious thing coming in a letter?’
Black Heavens Blood Thread.
It’s one of the hidden weapons used by the Heavenly Demon.
In the Demonic Sect where blood and flesh fly, one needs sothing to protect oneself.
That doesn’t just an a large greatsword.
An invisible string that strangles and cuts the enemy’s neck. In ergencies, it could create traps to ensnare hundreds of masters.
‘He’s made a connection with the Black Darkness Hidden Weapon Monster. Has he beco his disciple?’
It’s a protective weapon possessed by the Black Darkness Hidden Weapon Monster, called the king of hidden weapons.
In the original work, Little Heavenly Demon Yeo Ha-ryoon barely defeats the Black Darkness Hidden Weapon Monster and obtains this Black Heavens Blood Thread.
Its tensile strength is like elephant tendons, and when infused with special inner force, its sharpness becos enough to cut diamond.
It’s a secret treasure that the Black Darkness Hidden Weapon Monster cherished all his life, said to be more fearso than ten thousand flying daggers.
The Black Darkness Hidden Weapon Monster is quite a sensible person within the Demonic Sect and a considerable powerhouse. However, Yeo Ha-ryoon, unable to overco the temperant of the Heavenly Killing Star, kills his child.
That was during the Young Sect Leader’s Blood Frenzy.
The wounds Yeo Ha-ryoon suffered then beca shackles that tornted him.
But this ti seems to have been different.
The bracelet was without a scratch.
It would be impossible for the current Yeo Ha-ryoon to forcibly take it.
It seems he achieved sothing stickier than a grudge.
Whether he beca the Black Darkness Hidden Weapon Monster’s disciple, or sohow bestowed so favor on his only child, he obtained this secret treasure in a good way, 4 years earlier.
‘But why is this Heavenly Demon giving this to ? He should use it himself.’
He just threw it out there without even trying to take credit, as if saying “I picked this up sowhere.”
‘No, if I were an ordinary person, I wouldn’t have known the value of this bracelet. What if I had sold it?’
It was cold.
The Heavenly Demon’s coolness was too cold.
Jin Cheon-hee put on the bracelet.
It’s a bit loose now, but it should be fine when his body grows.
‘I should write a reply, right?’
It’s better not to write nas on this side either, in case soone peeks.
Before that, even if a ssenger bird reaches the Demonic Sect branch, it might not properly get to the Heavenly Demon guy.
Jin Cheon-hee wrote a simple reply.
It was a formal reply telling him to eat well and stay healthy.
***
After sending the ssenger bird, Jin Cheon-hee sat on the porch and fiddled with the Black Heavens Blood Thread.
Indeed, from the outside, it looks like an ordinary bracelet.
No, it’s extrely luxurious and looks very expensive, so it’s far from ordinary.
‘The craftsman who made the Black Heavens Blood Thread must have been a weird guy who likes flashy things.’
Aren’t hidden weapons better the more ordinary they look for easy concealnt?
This bracelet is ordinary by rich young master standards.
Even so, it didn’t feel real that this was such an incredible secret treasure.
He tried pulling out the black thread by turning the dragon’s head as a test.
He could tell the tensile strength was amazing, but it didn’t seem to have high cutting power.
Suddenly, he tried flowing inner energy into it.
“…”
There was no change with just this.
This ti, he tried putting in inner force, changing the combination little by little.
When he mixed the tal and water energies of the Five-Elental Divine Technique in a 2:1 ratio, it finally reacted.
Zzrrrr-
The entire black thread reacts.
When he touched the end of the thread to his finger, a red line appeared. It had cutting power like a scalpel.
‘I heard you need to inject special inner force, but it seems the Five-Elental Divine Technique can sowhat imitate it.’
Originally, it probably would have reacted to the demonic arts of the Demonic Sect.
‘Hmm. Indeed, shortcuts are sweet.’
How much did Yeo Ha-ryoon know when he sent this?
Jin Cheon-hee fell into thought.
“What on earth are you thinking?”
Yoo Ho collected the tea and snacks Jin Cheon-hee had consud, as well as the wooden box.
Jin Cheon-hee calmly answered while touching the bracelet.
“I’m wondering how I can use this to save people’s lives.”
“You’re going to use a hidden weapon made to kill people for dical purposes?”
“Does it sound crazy?”
“When were you ever in your right mind, young master? That’s normal for you.”
‘This guy?’
As Jin Cheon-hee was pondering how to retort this ti, Yoo Ho added a word.
“That’s why he gave it to you. Because you’re not in your right mind, he thought you might use it in a different way from himself.”
“…?”
Jin Cheon-hee glanced back, wondering how he knew that.
Yoo Ho furrowed her brow.
“Well, those who have been to the bottom tend to think similarly. It’s obvious how such a person would use that if they got their hands on it.”
“The bottom, the bottom…”
Yoo Ho’s words were strangely convincing. As if he had been there himself.
Co to think of it, he once referred to himself as a lowly creature.
Did he roll around in slums as a child? Or was he kidnapped by an evil sect or the Demonic Sect when he was young and escaped?
He could have been brainwashed after being kidnapped by a sect that specializes in assassination.
That’s how the martial arts world is. You can’t tell from the outside.
‘Well, I have no intention of overlooking soone who threatens to kill every day.’
Anyway, it seed Yeo Ha-ryoon hoped he would use this in a different way.
Of course, it would also be for self-defense.
‘He’s half right. I was already wondering if I could use it for dical purposes anyway.’
Yoo Ho placed another cup of tea and three rice cakes for Jin Cheon-hee before leaving.
With a bit of sarcasm.
Jin Cheon-hee laughed heartily and fed such a Yoo Ho.
After spending a few hours alone on the porch like that.
While he was busily applying the usage of the Black Heavens Blood Thread in his mind, he felt soone approaching him.
‘Is it Yoo Ho? No.’
Yoo Ho’s footsteps are closer to those of a four-legged beast than a human.
It’s probably due to the martial arts he’s learning, but the footsteps he heard this ti were not like that.
Light and quick footsteps.
“Cheon-hee.”
It was Wang Gak-yeon.
She was now not only cured but had even opened all her body ridians.
Among her peers, there was hardly anyone who could beat her even among the famous clans of the martial arts world.
On her back was a large horn bow.
It was a weapon called the Destroyer Horn Bow, which, while not a divine weapon, was modified to be good for using the Destroyer Divine Technique.
Judging by the wear on it, it was the bow her father, the Phantom Archer, had used.
For Phantom Archer, who had reached the Transformation Realm, the Destroyer Horn Bow was no longer necessary.
Because he had transcended the realm of being bound by a bow.
So he passed it on to his daughter, Wang Gak-yeon.
Although it was a large bow for a young girl’s fra, she wielded it freely.
“What’s the matter? Why are you so out of breath?”
Wang Gak-yeon said,
“I heard you’re good at lightness skill?”
“I can use the Three-Elents Stride Lightness Skill derived from the Three-Elents Stride sowhat.”
The Three-Elents Stride Lightness Skill is no different from the Three-Elents Stride.
Left, right, forward. That’s all there is to it.
Normally, it would be taken as a joke, a low-level lightness skill, but Wang Gak-yeon’s expression was serious.
“Can you co with for a mont? There’s soone I want you to treat.”
She fumbled in her bosom and took out one silver coin and nine iron coins.
Jin Cheon-hee knew that was all her wealth.
“What’s going on?”
“Please…”
It ant she couldn’t answer right now.
