Chapter 138: Oddities (2)

Sichuans Ark family.

A prestigious warrior family that shook the entire Murim world once upon a time. However, at one point, they disappeared from the memory of every single warrior.

And Ark Young was a descendant of the famous Ark family. On the outside, he seemed middle-aged, but he was actually 119 years old.

Which meant he lived a long time, but even for him, this was surprising.

Kwakwakwang!

A part of the forest, which was covered with thick greenery, was blown away.

In the midst of the fan-shaped destruction, he stood with crossed arms crossed and ragged clothes.

Kuck!

Blood came out of his mouth.

I blocked it but

He couldnt fully block it. The defense he tried to use was impenetrable, but even that was pierced.

The space shook like a raging storm.

The unification of energy the legend

In disbelief, Ark Young said.

You how did you know of the techniques of the Ark family?

Chun Yeowun responded.

For a descendant of the East God, you are so weak.

East God?

Ark Youngs eyes fluttered.

How did he come to know of that name?

Among the ancestors, there was only one person who had the name of East God and was pretty famous too.

It was Ark Wui, the 8th generation member, who was the most prominent and proficient warrior.

In the records of the Murim, it was said that Ark Wui, who was famous for a long time as a member of the Five Great Warriors, had one day disappeared.

Shhh!

Chun Yeowun, who held onto Elder Wangs finger, suddenly appeared ahead.

Ach!

Startled, Ark Young tried to hit him.

The fist made of the essence of energy and 10 level power within.

It was a one-shot kill. However,

Pak!

Chun Yeowun grabbed it.

Not yet!

Ark Youngs hand was twisted. The fist he used was the Wind Gods Fist, which should have taken down the opponent at once, but wouldnt work if the opponent was stronger.

Crack!

Kuaak!

Ark Youngs arm, which was twisted, soon dislocated and dropped.

Stupid too.

Chun Yeowun seemed disappointed. And that made Ark Young feel absurd.

How can someone who looks so young have such energy?

In general, with body transformation after enlightenment, finding out the age was difficult.

But there was one way to guess.

Tooth.

In case a tooth was pulled out and the color was checked, one could guess the age, but Chun Yeowuns teeth were pure white.

Chun Mu-seong. What are you

Crack!

Ack!

Thud!

When Chun Yeowun added more power, Ark Youngs knee bent down, and his arm was twisted.

I will be the one asking questions.

Kuak.

What is your relationship with the MS Group?

MS?

Ark Young seemed confused at the question.

Pretending not to know?

I have no idea what you are talking about. Isnt MS Group a company which disappeared a long time ago?

That was what Ark Young remembered. He remembered it to be a company of tech and military development.

Chun Yeoeun looked at that and said,

What is the possibility of a lie?

[Considering the changes in the facial muscles, including the pupil contractions, it is less than 5% likely to be a lie.]

Nanos ability to detect lies.

It wasnt 100% accurate as it was based on science, but it was almost 80-90% accurate.

Chun Yeowun asked.

Then why were you wandering around here?

At that, Ark Young responded.

That is what I want to ask. The Vice-chairman of Yongchun is no, Demonic Cult

Grab!

Kuak!

Demonic Cult?

Ah

Ark Young, who noticed what he said, changed his words.

I-isn't it strange that you, a member of the Sky Demon Order, has come to such a remote place?

At that, Chun Yeowun responded.

Heavenly Killing Star.

!?

At the mention of that, Ark Young went stiff.

How did this person come to know?

It was a secret.

Ark Youngs face, which gave out the hints, tried to cover it.

What are you trying to say?

So awkward.

You are horrible at lying. You wouldnt say that Sayogi isnt the Heavenly Killing star now, right?

You know Sayogi?

I ran into him.

No you met Sayogi outside this place?

Yes.

At that, Ark Young sighed. He occasionally told Sayogi about the outside Murim world, but he didnt think he would leave.

He just talked about it because he didnt want the man to feel suffocated in the forest, but it seemed like a lot had happened.

Sigh I must be out of it.

That happened?

Having seen Sayogis memories, Chun Yeowun knew that he walked out willingly.

Chun Yeowun asked.

Did you let him go even after knowing he is the Heavenly Killing Star?

Ah! I didnt! If that was the case, I would have trapped the man here forever.

Forever?

Sayogi lived for nearly 90 years. Hes old, but he is just a kid who knows nothing.

Chun Yeowun nodded, agreeing to it. He got that when he battled with the man. Ark Young continued to speak.

Mr. Cho and I did our best to help Sayogi overcome the situation. Please dont misunderstand.

So the problem of Heavenly Killing Star can be overcome?

Chun Yeowun, who was curious about the Heavenly Killing Star, had looked through ancient books.

However, all of them said that the slaughter couldnt be stopped as it was simple karma. It was said that the killing was done for the sake of the other living beings.

At Chun Yeowuns question, Ark Young spoke in a loud voice.

It can be overcome! Actually, there are cases of overcoming

Are you talking about the old man? Sayogis grandfather.

H-How did you know?

Ark Young couldnt hide his shock. He wasnt sure how far Chun Yeowun knew the truth. So he decided to be upfront.

If you know the old man, you must know that Heavenly Killing Stars Blood Kill energy can be stopped.

Dont know.

What?

You call that old man Mr. Cho?

Shit!

Ark Young realized that the man knew nothing.

And as far as the old man's existence is concerned, even in that place, not many could know about him.

Unknowingly he said the name out.

As he was shocked, Chun Yeowun asked.

Do you really think that old man managed to overcome it?

what are you trying to say?

Why are you so sure?

At that, Ark Young turned furious.

Mr. Cho has never committed an act of killing till now. If that had happened, not just the Murim world, everyone would have been destroyed.

You have a strong belief in him.

I am a witness. Mr. Cho and Sayogi never left this place till now. Occasionally I would come by to bring clothes and other necessities.

Chun Yeowun looked at Ark Young. It didnt seem like he was lying, but there was one problem.

So close yet you dont know anything.

What?

Bring that old man and follow me.

?

Where Chun Yeowun pointed was the place where Elder Wang fainted.

You should know better that you cant run away, right?

At those words, Ark Youngs expression darkened. He couldnt escape while holding an unconscious man in his arms.

The red-haired man was also strong.

Chun Yeowun walked to where the thatched house was.

It was now empty.

They didnt realize it from a distance, but everything was really gone.

What the hell happened with Mr. Cho?

At Ark Youngs ignorance, Chun Yeowun used the Time Remind power and showed what happened.

Seeing that, Ark Wui couldnt hide his shock.

This just how

These were things he didnt know. He didnt know that Mr. Cho interacted with other people.

He never expected the man to have a hidden duality within him.

Know what they are saying?

Ark Young shook his head. It was difficult for him to understand what they were talking about.

What was certain was that the old man had Sayogi with him for a purpose and now there was no more need for him.

Ah!

Ark Young suddenly remembered something.

What? Did you remember something?

the problem just turned more severe.

Problem?

Mr. Cho must not leave this place because of the oath.

Now what is that?

Ark Young, who wasnt sure what to do, looked at Chun Yeowun and then said,

You might know that Mr. Cho is also a Heavenly Killing Star. He overcame it, but not many believed it. So, in front of everyone, Mr. Cho made an oath to hide himself in Death Valley for the rest of his life.

You said you believed him, now what is this?

At Chun Yeowuns sarcastic question, Ark Young said,

What? Just like there are those who trust him like me, there are those who dont.

Chun Yeowun asked,

You keep saying it, so who else apart from you and h

Uhhhhh.

Ah! Elder Wang!

Coincidentally, Eder Wang, who passed out, woke up. Even though he had an injured arm, Ark Young rushed to the man to check his condition.

Hmm.

If Chun Yeowuns guess was correct, that person is a descendant of the All Truth clan.

But that man didnt exist in Sayogis memories.

Why did you bring him? Does he know that Sayogi is the Heavenly Killing Star?

When Chun Yeowun asked in a tone of doubt, Ark Young responded.

Elder Wang was here to help Sayogi.

help?

There is a technique which corrects the raging evil intent in the All Truth clans cultivation. He came over to help the man.

That was the purpose Ark Young brought him alone. He felt sorry for Sayogi, who was imprisoned all his life and asked Elder Wang to help the man.

He was the only one who accepted it.

Ark Young felt grateful for that person.

Chun Yeowun, who looked at the two, commented,

That is quite strange.

What?

I am told that he had been imprisoned here for 90 years, but only now the person comes to teach the cultivation method?

At those words, Ark Young turned defensive.

It isnt an easy thing. And the eyes of people in the opposition and Sayogi

Tak!

At that time, Elder Wang put his hand on Ark Youngs shoulder and said.

Ark Young I am sorry. It wasnt because I didnt trust you.

Elder Wang what are you saying?

Ark Young couldnt understand what was being told.

Chun Yeowun shook his head as he spouted,

The scent which comes from the old man, cant you smell it?

Scent?

Ark Young looked at Elder Wang. He couldnt smell anything. However, Elder Wang had a perplexed expression.

He is speaking of the Thousand Miles Chase Scent?

It was a tracking scent made in a place called Amhyang, which is known to be a legendary Murim place.

It is a scent that can literally track people from thousands of miles away, but it couldnt be detected by humans.

Only those who have taken a special medication can take it.

Elder Wang

Ark Young suddenly felt something was bad. However, something struck his mind.

This

Numerous martial arts warriors were secretly approaching the place. No matter how much the presence was hidden, the people who were inferior in level could be noticed from a distance.

Approaching secretly and surrounding the place they were at.

A siege.

Elder Wang spoke to Chun Yeowun.

Cough Cough Chun Mu-seong. I dont know how you sniffed out the scent, but it is too late. At least the strongest elders must have made their way here.

Hmm.

About the disappeared Heavenly Killing Star and all, I am going to tell everything.

At that, Ark Young hurriedly said,

Elder Wang, there seems to be some kind of mistake

Chun Yeowun interrupted him and said,

It seems like he is on the other side. Seeing that three hundred and fifty people came, it seems like they wanted to kill the Heavenly Killing Star.

!?

Ark Young and Elder Wang were both shocked.

Understanding the siege was one thing, but pinpointing the exact number of people was impossible. What they were feeling couldnt be described.

A person with such good sense knew of the siege but didnt run away, why? Why no!

Elder Wangs eyes widened.

Slow. I was getting tired of waiting.

What?

Lets move on this side first.

Chun Yeowun moved slightly away from them and held out his right hand. The black wrist guard disassembled and turned into the Sky Demon Sword.

Chachacha!

Chun Yeowun grabbed the sword and pushed it to the ground.

Puck!

They looked to see what he was doing and noticed a blue light from the sword entering the ground.

Chun Yeowun mumbled,

Come out.

As soon as the words fell, opaque auras began to rise one after another.

Shrek! Shrek! Shrek!

Ghosts.

Huh?

G-ghosts?

Elder Wang was shocked upon seeing the Ghosts.

This is this.

The appearance of so many ghosts would need another word than terrifying.

When they filled around, a terrifying coldness spread out and Chun Yeowun gave the orders.

All of them.

Shhhh!

And with those short words, the Ghosts scattered all over the place passing through trees and bushes without hesitation. At the terrifying sight, Elder Wang was dumbfounded.

How, how can a human summon ghosts?
