Chapter 131
Chapter 131
Mok Wigun naturally delivered a blow. It was the same as saying that the Huashan Sect was being unreasonable.
"Really? How are you going to confirm it?"
The Huashan Sect leader asked. In fact, it was not an easy task to prove that he had taken the Gwanghyeoldan later.
"So I have brought people who can confirm it."
When Mok Wigun gestured, people in physician's attire came out in a line from one side.
"It's the Divine Physician Valley."
"Huh? Isn't the one in the front the Divine Physician?"
The person who was coming out at the very front of the physicians of the Divine Physician Valley, stroking his beard. It was the Divine Physician.
When the Divine Physician appeared, the face of the Huashan Sect leader slightly distorted. If it was the Divine Physician, he was more than qualified to verify it. Isn't the Divine Physician one of the top figures in medical skills?
"It has been about a day and a half since this person took the Gwanghyeoldan."
"Is that so? I will examine him."
The Divine Physician began to examine the person who had taken the Gwanghyeoldan with the other physicians. People's attention was focused.
The Divine Physician conducted a considerable number of tests. Not just simply looking with his eyes, but he used various tools to examine whether he had taken the Gwanghyeoldan in various ways.
"It is clear that he has taken the Gwanghyeoldan."
After a considerable amount of time, the Divine Physician said.
"I can guarantee it on the name of the Divine Physician Valley."
The Divine Physician even mentioned the name of the Divine Physician Valley. Who could raise an objection to that? But the Huashan Sect's side couldn't just take it lying down.
"Aren't you saying that because you have some kind of secret agreement with the Demon Dragon Manor?"
Someone shouted that from within the crowd. It was one of the people that Huashan had planted to liven up the atmosphere. At that, the Divine Physician showed a look of displeasure.
"As some of you may know, the Demon Dragon Manor and the Divine Physician Valley are not on very good terms."
Many people knew the story of the treatment of the magistrate's mother in Chang'an. No. There were fewer people who didn't know about that incident. Because it was a famous story that was connected all the way to the Flame Pond. So almost everyone knew that the Demon Dragon Manor and the Divine Physician Valley had clashed and had not ended on good terms.
"Nevertheless, the reason we came here was because of the Gwanghyeoldan. This medicine is something that should not exist in the world, and it is a remnant of the Blood Cult."
The Divine Physician looked around and said.
"The Divine Physician Valley, as a member of the Martial, could not remain silent at the news that the Gwanghyeoldan had appeared in the world. So we came here to confirm it."
Everyone agreed. The Huashan Sect also had nothing more to say. Mok Wigun greeted the Divine Physician, saying he had worked hard.
"I hope you keep your promise. Demon Dragon Manor Lord."
"Have you ever seen me not keep a promise? I'll deliver the contents, so don't worry."
There was no reason for the Divine Physician Valley to get involved in such a thing. Because it was a matter that could put them at odds with the Huashan Sect. So Mok Wigun had promised to pass on his medical skills.
The medical skills that Mok Wigun had further developed based on the contents of the medical book he had seen. He had promised to pass on a part of it. For the Divine Physician Valley, it was a matter of being able to hear the praise of standing for justice and also being able to take the substance of Mok Wigun's medical skills.
"Heh heh. The Gwanghyeoldan. Let's immediately imprison that person and investigate."
The Huashan Sect leader said.
"We will investigate that person. Because we are the organizers of the tournament."
"That's troublesome. You can't entrust the fish to the cat, can you?"
How can I trust you with what you're going to do? You're going to take him and kill him, right? That's what he meant. At that, the sect leader said.
"That person has nothing to do with us."
Of course, he knew he would come out like that. If he hadn't prepared for such a thing, would he have brought that person here?
"Who gave you the Gwanghyeoldan?"
The man with difficulty raised his hand. At the tip of his finger was Taeseokgwan.
"Tae... Seokgwan. That person gave it to me..."
"Lies. Why are you framing me?"
Taeseokgwan jumped up. He strongly denied that he had ever done such a thing.
"The person himself has testified, but you don't believe it?"
"You can manipulate that as much as you want, can't you? You could have tortured him."
Mok Wigun gestured again. This time, Baek Seokhu and Lady Jang were dragged out. Seeing them, Taeseokgwan's expression also changed.
"You know these two well, right?"
"I know them, but they have nothing to do with this."
Taeseokgwan strongly denied it. He thought he could somehow solve it if he held out. But Baek Seokhu and Lady Jang, who had been caught, had different thoughts. They were thinking that the situation was already tilted.
"Let's hear the story."
Mok Wigun quieted the surroundings and then told them to speak. Baek Seokhu sighed and then began to speak.
"That person said to eliminate the Zhongnan Sect..."
"The Zhongnan Sect? Why did he say to eliminate the Zhongnan Sect?"
Baek Seokhu hesitated. Because he had to reveal his own shame as well. But he couldn't not cooperate with Mok Wigun.
Now, it wasn't a matter of gaining an advantage, but of surviving. To do that, he had to either trust the Huashan Sect and keep his mouth shut, or stick to Mok Wigun. He had to choose one of the two. But if he kept his mouth shut now, would the Huashan Sect protect him?
'Not a chance. They'll rather try to kill me.'
Baek Seokhu's choice was only one. To cooperate with Mok Wigun and somehow survive.
"The Huashan Sect tried to exclude the Zhongnan Sect from the Nine Great Sects..."
"Shut up!"
A shout erupted from the Huashan Sect.
"I can't listen to any more. Where are you getting such a scheme?"
The Huashan Sect leader also shouted and flew. He flew through the air and arrived at the place where Mok Wigun and Baek Seokhu were. As the sect leader landed, the Huashan Sect people soon arrived in a rush.
"What do you think you're doing?"
"What do you mean? There's a problem, so aren't we trying to find out what happened?"
Mok Wigun answered calmly. And he gestured lightly. At that, Dan Bulseok shouted.
"Light Wind Unit!"
A unified movement. The seven people, including Dan Bulseok, blocked the way between the Huashan Sect and Mok Wigun.
"Wow. Those people are the Light Wind Unit."
"That's right. That's right. I saw them bringing that single-horned great serpent and the human-faced spider. It's those people."
A firm attitude of not allowing approach. The Huashan Sect people also just looked at each other's faces when the opponent came out like this.
The sect leader was also at a loss. He couldn't tell them to attack when so many people were watching, and he couldn't just leave them alone.
Mok Wigun said to Baek Seokhu.
"Alright. Continue talking."
"That's..."
Seeing that the Light Wind Unit was completely blocking, Baek Seokhu stammered but confessed everything.
"To have the Zhongnan Sect be excluded, they had to have a bad result in the Western Academy preliminaries, so they manipulated the match-up table in the beginning."
"How did they manipulate the match-up table?"
"Taeseokgwan received gold from us and delivered it. The people who received the gold changed the match-up table."
A buzz arose from all sides.
"What are you talking about? It's all lies."
Another denial came from the Huashan Sect. Mok Wigun said to the scholar who had come from the Son family.
"Are the preparations finished?"
"I've been waiting for a long time."
The scholar gestured, and the warriors who had come with him brought a few people and gold. Seeing that, Taeseokgwan was surprised and then he bowed his head and sighed.
Because he could feel how meticulously the opponent had prepared. And he also knew that he was finished now.
"What is this? Phew. The gold is enormous."
There was a pile of gold that ordinary people would have a hard time even seeing.
"No. You get this for just fixing the match-up table a little? Besides, it seems this wasn't the first or second time."
The people who had been caught also knew they were ashamed and bowed their heads deeply.
"Wow. Isn't this too much?"
"The things that a prestigious righteous sect like the Huashan Sect does are worse than a gangster."
Criticism poured out from all sides.
"Wait!"
The Huashan Sect leader stepped forward.
"Who are you to do this? By what right do you arrest people like this..."
At those words, a warrior stepped forward. He was the one who had greeted Dan Bulseok when they had first met, and he showed a gold plaque and said.
"I am Son Gyeongbaek, a Northern Pacification Warrior of the Embroidered Uniform Guard."
At the words 'Embroidered Uniform Guard', all sides became quiet. What kind of place is the Embroidered Uniform Guard? It is the emperor's personal guard and secret police. The law? The Embroidered Uniform Guard exists above such things. They have the authority to carry out summary executions if they judge that it is harmful to the emperor.
"Ah... I see."
Even the Huashan Sect leader had to lower himself in front of the Embroidered Uniform Guard. Because you don't know what will happen if you get on their bad side. Son Gyeongbaek glanced around. At that, people were busy avoiding his eyes. The Embroidered Uniform Guard was that much of an object of fear.
"Please continue. Young Master Mok."
"Shall I?"
Mok Wigun patted Baek Seokhu. At that, Baek Seokhu was startled and then he moved his mouth faster than before. Seeing that even the Embroidered Uniform Guard was on Mok Wigun's side, he had completely made up his mind.
"The one who gave that guy the Gwanghyeoldan is also Taeseokgwan. He said he had secretly researched the Blood Cult's things."
The Gwanghyeoldan is a serious matter that cannot be compared to manipulating the match-up table.
"I don't know anything about it. The Gwanghyeoldan. How would I know that?"
Taeseokgwan was also desperate about the Gwanghyeoldan. Because he knew that if he was involved with the Gwanghyeoldan, it would not end simply. The Huashan Sect leader also looked at the atmosphere and then cautiously stepped forward.
"You can't say that he took the Gwanghyeoldan during the match, can you? You could have fed it to him after you caught him..."
But Son Gyeongbaek stepped forward.
"That's not possible. I have been watching from the moment this person was brought here until now."
Since a person from the Embroidered Uniform Guard had said that, the sect leader also had nothing to say.
"There's no evidence that I gave it to him. I really don't know."
At Taeseokgwan's words, Baek Seokhu hesitated and then opened his mouth.
"That's a lie. There is a secret space under that person's desk, and I saw a few Gwanghyeoldan there."
At Baek Seokhu's words, Mok Wigun gestured with his eyes. At that, Dan Bulseok and Son Gyeongbaek moved together. The two of them flew like the wind to the place where Taeseokgwan's room was.
Taeseokgwan began to tremble. He was a dead man now. How did Baek Seokhu know that? He had done it without anyone knowing, and he had only taken it out when no one was there. But Baek Seokhu was telling the answer in detail.
"It was a very dangerous thing, so I was against it. But that person said it would be fine and proceeded with it... So I secretly watched."
He had made a safety device. To use it in case of an emergency. Mok Wigun thought that if it was Baek Seokhu, he would have done that.
"What happens if the Gwanghyeoldan is real?"
Mok Wigun asked Daoist Master Chongun.
"If it's the Gwanghyeoldan, it's really serious. The Martial Alliance will also have to send an investigation team."
The Martial Alliance's fact-finding investigation team. In a word, the Huashan Sect will be thoroughly investigated.
"That's right. We have to investigate this without any suspicion."
Mok Wigun said, looking at the Huashan Sect leader.
