Episode 235
There would have been plenty of opportunities.
Now, I have beco a famous person in martial arts that even Hao Wen cannot touch, but in the past, I was just an unknown minor with no background.
From Hao Moon’s perspective, there could not have been a more delicious al.
“Well, from your point of view, there might be so doubts.”
Hao Wenzhou burst out laughing.
Unlike the mouth muscles moving, the eyes were motionless, giving an eerie feeling.
“There are many reasons. “There are limits to the information that can be obtained through torture, and there is also the need for ti to observe you.”
“Is that all?”
“Besides, there’s no way the future King of Fist would stay silent if he hard you carelessly.”
“…….”
“Of course, the fact that you didn’t know that you were a regressor also played a big role. “If I had known, I might have tried to secure you at all costs.”
“Has your curiosity been resolved?”
“yes. “To so extent.”
“Then now it’s my turn to ask a question. “Before you regressed, when was the last ti you in your previous life t your end?”
“It is exactly eleven years from now. “My last mory is of losing my life after getting caught up in a power struggle on campus.”
“Is that so? “The timing coincides with the end of my life that I saw through a precognitive dream.”
Hao Wenzhou nodded slowly and muttered.
My eyes widened at the unexpected remark.
Hao Wen-ju died at the sa ti as ?
“Have you ever thought of sothing like that? There is cause and effect in everything in the world. “Then why did you and I experience this strange phenonon?”
“…….”
“Why is it you and and not anyone else? Because there is so common denominator? “Why are two people who have never had a proper conversation?”
“…….”
“Surprisingly, the answer was simple. “You and I had only one thing in common.”
“What is that?”
“Bidong of Muyeongsintu.”
“…!”
For a mont, my shoulders stiffened.
I knew it the mont I heard the story.
What is Hao Wen-ju trying to say?
What is the purpose of coming to see alone?
“You must be curious. “How did my future self end up dying?”
“yes.”
“The person who killed Future Day is a man you know well.”
“Are you the Demon Cult leader?”
“You’re quick-witted. “At that ti, I was gathering information about the assassination party in his hands without knowing the aning of Muyeongsintu.”
I thought so.
How many people in the world are capable of killing the absolute master Hao Wenju?
It’s a guess, but Ma Jyoju was probably trying to eliminate Haomunju and use a double to take control of Haomun.
You might say that there is no one in the world who could act as a double for a big man like Hao Wen-ju, but there was one person in the Demonic Cult who could do that.
Cheoljonghu, the absolute master and white-faced god of death, who occupied the first place in the eight great demon armies.
He was one of Master Ma’s favorite confidants.
“So to speak, I t my end while investigating the sa place in the sa area at the sa ti as you.”
The endings of each person’s mories matched.
At the ti, Hao Wen-ju and I were also conducting research on Bidong.
“It’s too elaborate for a coincidence.”
Hao Wen-ju was just saying this to .
It is said that the secret of return lies dormant in the secret cave of Shintu.
“Let’s move on to the main topic.”
“…….”
“You are planning to attack the Bi-dong of Muyeong Shintu, right?”
“That’s right.”
“Let make a suggestion. “Would you like to join hands with ?”
I placed my clasped hands on my knees and was lost in thought.
Hao Wen-ju had expected this to happen from the first ti he ntioned Bidong.
Apparently, Hao Wen-ju only knew the existence and approximate location of Bi-dong, but did not know how to enter and exit there.
If I had known, I wouldn’t have left Pang Gonhu alone until now.
“What will be the benefit to if I accept Master Moon’s offer?”
“Saving ti, securing manpower and maintaining security.”
“……Maintain security. Are you threatening to spread information about Bidong if you don’t accept the offer?”
“You misunderstood what I said. “It ant that I would make every effort to prevent rumors from spreading outside during the attack on Bidong.”
It wasn’t such a bad story.
Attacking Muyeongsintu’s Bi-dong was by no ans an easy task.
There would be a risk that could not be compared to the ti when they climbed Mt. Seoldu Mountain to claim the inheritance of Gija Cheon.
Considering the scale of Bi-dong and the installed traps, at least double digits of professional manpower would be needed.
‘It’s not easy to gather that many people one by one.’
In the worst case, it could be necessary to hire hundreds of workers to clean up the spilled debris from accidentally touching the trap.
Actually, sothing similar happened in my past life.
‘It is inevitable that as the number of people increases, maintaining security becos more difficult. If I can get help from Hao Mun, I don’t have to worry about that.’
After completing the calculations in my head, I nodded calmly.
In any case, since Hao Wen-ju knew about the secret secrets of the martial arts god, it was almost impossible to proceed with the attack without his eyes.
Rather than refuse and create a competitor, it would be better to join the sa team even if this side’s share is slightly reduced.
“You’re accepting it more obediently than I thought.”
“Even if I refuse, you won’t quietly back down, right?”
“You don’t have to worry about distribution issues. There is one thing I want. The goal is to determine the cause of the phenonon that you and I experienced. “I’m not particularly interested in the martial arts or gold and silver treasures left behind by Muyeongsintu, so you can keep them all for yourself.”
“The conditions are too advantageous for .”
“Think of it as repaying Hao Mun’s debt to you. Of course, we need to properly distribute shares to those hired from outside.”
“Anyway, there is plenty of money. “I’ll give you as much gold and silver treasure as you can.”

Afterwards, Hao Wen-ju and I had various conversations.
We had a lot of questions about each other.
“Then is it in the sa context that you appointed Cheonnyeo as the branch leader?”
“I see. “Because she owed you a favor.”
“…….”
“I am grateful to you. “If it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t have been able to find a disciple.”
“Now that I think about it, it must have been around that ti. “The ti when Lord Wen was convinced that I was the fifth disciple of the Demonic Cult in my past life.”
“Well, the only ones who can save a patient suffering from ntal demons through the arrangents of the Demon Cultist are the Cultist himself and his disciples who followed his progress. “And even the nas were the sa, so I couldn’t not recognize them.”
I let out a long sigh in my heart.
I had no choice but to admit it.
In the past, I was complacent.
I thought I had prepared my own safety asures and contacted Hao Moon.
It turns out that the danger was simply avoided because several situational factors ca together.
What if Hao Wen-ju had discovered the existence of the returner early and had harbored a bitter intention?
‘It is no excuse to not know that there would be soone other than who knows the future.’
In conclusion, things worked out well.
However, there was a need to reflect on the process.
Even if it’s just to avoid repeating the sa mistake.
“When I found out that my disciple had fallen into a demonic state through the arrangent of the demonic cult leader, my vision beca dark. “I think we should cooperate with the Demonic Cult just like we did in the precognitive dream…”
“Now that I think about it, there is sothing I have wanted to ask Lord Mun for a while.”
“Sothing?”
“Is it possible that Cheon Soje is Lord Wen’s biological relative?”
“…Can I ask why you ca up with that thought?”
For the first ti, Hao Wenju appeared agitated.
Honestly, I was a little surprised.
I would have thought that the man in front of also had a human side.
“I thought it was strange. Isn’t the Hao clan a group that prioritizes the survival of the clan over the well-being of each mber? Even though Chen Xiaozhe is Master Wen’s disciple, I don’t understand why Hao Wen decided to join hands with Demonic Cult based on that alone.”
In his previous life, Hao Wen fell for the appeasent of the Ma Cultist and supported the Cult.
At the ti, I didn’t have any questions because I was a mber of the Demonic Cult, but after I returned and my position changed, I began to feel uncomfortable with the decision that Hao Wenju made at the ti.
The Hao clan I knew was a group that, if it had to weigh the life of one leader and the interests of the entire clan, would definitely choose the latter.
Despite this, Hao Wen-ju personally visited the headquarters of the Demonic Cult and negotiated with the Demon Cultist in order to save Chen Jiaryeong’s life.
‘It couldn’t have happened in the first place.’
If you think about it, there were many strange things about Cheon Ji-ryeong.
For example, for a leader of Hao Wen, he belongs to the group with a lot of emotions.
Even though they commit deviant acts such as going in and out of black poetry, they are not subject to any particular sanctions.
In a strange way, I couldn’t shake the feeling that I was receiving a lot of consideration from Hao Wen-ju.
“It wouldn’t an much if I denied it. “It’s as you think.”
Hao Wen-ju nodded and answered, burying herself in the back of the chair.
The sa goes for Nanhakken and Hao Wenju.
It seed that no matter how cold-hearted a person was, he could not help but beco weak in front of the affection of his flesh and blood.
“Now that I think about it, I didn’t say sothing important.”
“……?”
“That child, Cheon Ji-ryeong, finished closing and left the training complex.”
I sighed inwardly.
A conversation I had with Cheon Ga-ryeong in the past flashed through my mind.
[You said you were instructed to close the training center. Isn’t there an exact deadline set?]
[Yes. He told not to leave the training center until I entered the next realm. You may finish it quickly and co out, or you may not be able to co out even after several years.]
Completing the closing training ant that Cheon Ga-ryeong had reached the pinnacle of excellence.
The last ti I saw her was four months ago now.
I never would have guessed that I had overco the wall in such a short period of ti.
Should we really say that he is a talent who inherits the blood of Hao Wen-ju?
[There is a way to significantly shorten the ti required for lung training. Would you like to hear it?]
It was rewarding to clean the blood vessels with white light energy.
Among the later exponents of her age, only a few achieved the sa level as her.
At most, Tang Seo-yeon or Namgung Seong-hoon?
Considering that Cheon Ga-ryeong was the sa age as , her martial skills could be said to be the best among the later martial artists excluding .
“Soon, you will be given the role of a dedicated officer again and assigned to the Sacheon branch.”
“Is that so.”
“You don’t look very happy.”
“I knew this because I heard it from the person involved. “I was told that once I completed the closing training, I would return to my original duties.”
“I ask you this not as the owner of a single door, but as the father of a child. “Treat that child well.”
“……father?”
I tilted my head.
He is my father, not my grandfather.
At what age did this person get married?
