Moon-Shadow Sword Emperor
Chapter 446

Episode 446:

The news that Yan Soul Sword regained consciousness quickly spread throughout the Hainan Sect.

‘It’s coming.’

A powerful figure approaching the room at high speed.

I turned my head and stared in the direction of the door.

“I finally woke up…!”

The moment when Jang Moon-in, who ran into the hospital room, was about to shout something at the Flame Soul Sword.

I covered the area around the bed with a figurative curtain and put my index finger to my lips.

“You just fell asleep.”

“already? “Haven’t you just woken up?”

“My body has not fully recovered yet. It is bound to be difficult to stay awake for long periods of time. To be honest, I wonder how I was already conscious.”

“It’s a shame. “I had a lot of things I wanted to say.”

“There are plenty of opportunities for conversation ahead, aren’t there? “It would be best to let the patient rest for now.”

“I understand.”

Jang Moon-in nodded, pulled a chair next to the bed and sat down.

He then grabbed Flame Soul Sword’s wrist and felt his pulse.

He closed his eyes for a while and examined the Flame Soul Sword’s body, then sighed, not knowing whether it was a sigh or an exclamation.

“Actually, I didn’t have high expectations.”

“……?”

“I felt skeptical while writing the letter to you. “I thought that even the Dragon King would not be able to save a warrior who suffered from madness.”

“Did you?”

“I thought that the private secrets would only be exposed to the outside world and would not produce good results.”

“Even so, didn’t you come out to the front door and greet me and my group?”

“Is it really okay to invite someone due to special circumstances and then show off as being untrustworthy? “I was just welcoming you as a courtesy.”

“I don’t understand why you suddenly say that. “I don’t think there was anything that made me feel uncomfortable.”

“If it hadn’t been mentioned separately, I would have overlooked it, so why are you asking me to scrape it and make a crust?”

“That’s right.”

“Because I want you to know that I am truly grateful to you right now.”

Haenammunju’s lips drew an arc.

It was a smile that was a bit burdensome, but made me feel good.

He bowed his head and spoke in a voice filled with strength.

“The Haenam faction will not forget the kindness you gave us. never.”

“Don’t do this. As I said, we are not yet at the stage where we can guarantee complete recovery.”

“Even so, isn’t it clear that you have come a long way for Haenampa and the patient’s physical condition has improved?”

“…….”

“The only thing I did this time was to send a letter because I couldn’t overcome the pressure of the elders who were angry and said I should grasp at straws. “I almost left behind a thousand regrets.”

Haenam Munju took out a fist-sized jade bead from her bosom and handed it to me.

I looked at the marble in my hand and opened my eyes wide.

The shapes of waves, dragons, and swords were embossed on the smooth surface.

‘This!’

I recognized it the moment I saw it.

This is an object modeled after the Haenam faction’s Jangmunryeongbu (掌門令符).

In the past, when I was the head of the Sacheon branch, I received something similar from the Ami faction and the Cheongseong faction.

I quickly packed the jade beads in my bosom in case Haenammunju changed his mind.

“Are you okay? “You can give me something like this.”

“As a representative of a sect, shouldn’t I do at least this much? “There’s no need to feel pressured.”

“I will accept it gratefully.”

“Would you please take the time to visit Jangmun-in’s room later? “If it’s okay with you, I’d like to have a drink separately.”

“There is no reason to refuse. “I will come see you as soon as I finish treatment.”

Haenam Munju leaves the place.

I muttered as I looked down at the Flame Soul Sword that was sleeping as if it were dead.

‘He’s a guy whose personality I don’t like at all, but he’s very happy.’

* * *

Jangseogak (藏書閣) within the Haenam faction.

I pushed the documents scattered across the desk to one side, relaxed my aching shoulders, and let out a yawn.

I spent a few days researching the relationship between the Haenam faction and Wolhwajang, but I couldn’t get the information I wanted.

All that was discovered was a record that several of Wolhwajang’s immediate blood relatives had visited Haenampa to hold a friendly meeting.

‘I wish there was a record of the absolute experts produced by Wolhwajang.’

Perhaps we can replace traces of Wolhwajang that Maseon has not been able to erase yet.

I started this project with that thought in mind, but it was literally a waste of time.

I was worried that my body would not come out like this.

I got up with a groan and headed out of Haenampa and towards the nearby coast.

As I reached the sheer cliff, a strong wind blew in and blew my hair.

widely!

I jumped down and landed on a small road located in the middle of the cliff.

When I raised my head, a huge sword mark carved on the wall came into view.

It was already my fifth time coming here.

I knew in my head that there was nothing good about having regrets, but the human heart was not that simple.

Some kind of attraction that cannot be explained in words kept calling me here.

I looked at the sword marks blankly for a while.

‘uh?’

As if possessed, I approached the wall and held my breath.

The inside of a deep cut.

In a place where it was hard to see because it was dark, familiar marks were engraved at regular intervals.

When I came here earlier, I didn’t notice it because it was late in the evening or at night.

‘no way.’

My heart was pounding.

Although it was slightly weathered due to the passage of a considerable amount of time, there was no problem in recognizing it.

I never thought I would discover the arrangements left by Wolhwajang’s predecessor in this way.

‘I’m sure. This is the trace of the twenty-fifth herbivory being cast.’

The last Choshik of the Wolyeonggeom, which was not recorded in the martial arts book in the Cheonryung Bookstore.

Mokwonse found traces exactly like this in my secret space.

I couldn’t be mistaken.

Is there anyone who would not be able to recognize the shape of a rubbing copy that they have looked at from time to time?

I put my arm in and swept away the dust and twigs that had accumulated in the crevices of the wall.

My hands were dirty and dirty, and my clothes were stained black, but that was a good thing.

We had to figure out for what purpose Wolhwajang’s predecessor left these traces.

‘It looks no different from what I saw at Mokwonse…’

It’s just smaller than what I saw at the time.

The traces carved at regular intervals all had the same shape.

My excited mind calmed down.

‘Of course there is no noticeable difference, and there is not even an explanation.’

In this way, it was no different from when I first discovered traces of herbivory for the 25th time.

After all, wasn’t there an arrangement within Bi-dong for the later people to learn herbivory?

When I thought that, the strength in my shoulders went away.

While scratching my head and thinking of all sorts of possibilities, I shook off the remaining dust to examine the traces in more detail.

‘wait.’

Then, I felt something strange.

Traces carved at regular intervals.

As I looked at the first and second traces alternately, I let out an exclamation.

Why did the master of Wolhwajang take the trouble of engraving dozens of identical traces?

‘Are you telling me the order!’

The reason was right here.

It was a subtle difference that could not be noticed unless you looked closely.

Among the lines that make up the trace, there was one that dug particularly deeply into the wall.

To the naked eye, it appears to be a line of the same thickness, but even my senses, which had reached absolute perfection, could not be fooled.

The first trace is a straight road.

The second trace has a diagonal line connecting it.

The dozens of traces were a kind of signpost.

A milestone that indicates the order in which the twenty-fifth herbivorous meal is unfolded.

‘under.’

Laughter naturally flowed out.

I finally realized it.

That Bi-dong was just a trick.

These are the traces of the arrangements left behind by the former at Wolhwajang for the latter.

‘Maseon. ‘The old man was so deceived.’

I felt pleasant.

At this point, I even felt grateful.

In a way, isn’t it possible to arrive at the right answer thanks to Masun damaging Bi-dong?

If it weren’t for him, I too would have been distracted by fake arrangements and not seen the most important thing.

‘They say it’s a blessing in disguise.’

The world was really interesting.

I never thought things would work out this way.

Who would have thought that coming here repeatedly for several days because I couldn’t let go of my regrets would bear fruit.

Sometimes, it seemed like it was helpful to act out of frustration.

‘This is not the time.’

I had to go back to Haenampa immediately and bring ink and paper.

If you want to go back to the main altar and practice, wouldn’t you have to make a rubbing and take it with you?

I immediately kicked into the air and climbed up the jumping cliff.

* * *

Fifteen days and three days have passed since we arrived in Haenam Island.

The work of treating the Flame Soul Sword was roughly completed.

Now that the energy that has spread throughout the body has been driven into the dantian and all the turbid energy has been removed, all that remains is to watch the trend.

“thank you! Daehyup!”

“Daehyeop is the benefactor of the Haenam faction!”

The disciples of the Haenam faction expressed their gratitude to me.

That sight felt quite foreign to me.

Yeomhongeom said that many people were injured because of his reckless driving.

As he said, there may be some who are uncomfortable with his recovery, but at least among the Haenam believers I have met so far, not a single one has shown such signs.

It seemed that the Flame Soul Sword was more popular among his students than it seemed.

This is why I couldn’t judge a person by looking at only one side.

‘This concludes our schedule in Haenampa.’

Soon it was time to board the ship heading to land.

It seems that Haenam Munju wanted me to stay in the clan a little longer, but I couldn’t do that.

The picture of people playing and eating while being treated as benefactors was attractive, but the problem was that you never knew when the devil would act.

Wasn’t the reason I rushed my schedule to come to Haenam in the first place because I was worried about that?

In addition, I also wanted to quickly practice following the milestones left by Wolhwajang’s predecessor.

Because in Haenam School, I couldn’t practice privately with peace of mind.

“We will leave tomorrow.”

“That fast?”

“Please understand. “I need to expedite my schedule as much as possible.”

“It’s unfortunate, but there’s nothing we can do. “I will give you disciples to make your journey easier.”

“thank you.”

It was the time when I visited Jang Moon-in’s room and said goodbye.

Yook Seong-dam, a first-generation disciple of the Haenam Sect, rushed into the room and shouted in a voice full of energy.

“It’s urgent!”

“What are you making such a fuss about?”

“It is said that the demonic forces have begun to move! “A large-scale battle took place on the front in Hebei!”

“…!”
