The World's Greatest Troublemaker

Chapter 142

As Mok Wigun decided to take action, three of the Eastern Depot's guards fell at once. And they couldn't move at all.

"You bastard!"

Eunuch Yang shouted and attacked Mok Wigun from behind.

"Where are you going?"

Eunuch Yang was startled. It was because someone had pulled him by the scruff of his neck. He quickly swung his sword and turned around to see Pyon Juksu standing there.

"So it was you."

Eunuch Yang was tense. It was because he had seen Pyon Juksu's skill in erasing his aura earlier. It was an aura he had spread with determination. To erase all of that just by waving his hand? With that level of skill, he was definitely a higher master than himself.

So Eunuch Yang thought of running away first. He fights only when he is confident that he can win. Otherwise, his creed was to avoid it unconditionally.

"Take this!"

Eunuch Yang threw the hidden weapons he was carrying. He didn't think he could do anything to the opponent with this. He just needed to buy a little time.

After throwing the hidden weapons, he immediately turned around and went out through the window. And he tried to run away at full speed.

"Ugh!"

This time too, someone grabbed him by the scruff of his neck. This time, it wasn't just being caught. Suddenly, he felt a sharp pain and couldn't move his body. His acupoints had been pressed.

"Why do you keep trying to go somewhere? I came to ask you something."

The opponent said in an annoyed tone. He knew who it was without turning around. Pyon Juksu dragged Eunuch Yang like that and went back into the room.

The situation in the room was also sorted out. Mok Wigun had pressed everyone's acupoints and made them unable to move.

"Let's see."

Mok Wigun approached Eunuch Yang, who was seated in a chair.

"Do you think you can get away with treating the Eastern Depot like this?"

"Huh? It was the Eastern Depot? I didn't know."

Mok Wigun said with exaggerated fuss.

"What should I do?"

"Even if it's the Eastern Depot, they can't talk if they're dead, can they?"

Pyon Juksu answered. And in a very indifferent tone. At those words, both the guards of the Eastern Depot and Eunuch Yang trembled.

"Wait. We have to ask something before we kill them or not."

Mok Wigun approached Eunuch Yang and asked.

"You were talking about the inner core earlier. Why did you need the inner core? I was so curious I couldn't sleep."

At Mok Wigun's words, Eunuch Yang hesitated for a moment and then opened his mouth.

"Let's go to another room. I don't want to be humiliated in front of my subordinates."

"Really? You're a guy with a strange sense of pride."

Mok Wigun gave Pyon Juksu a subtle glance. And Mok Wigun and Pyon Juksu left the room. But the eyes of the fallen Eastern Depot guards widened to the point of tearing. The chair that Eunuch Yang was seated on was floating in the air and moving.

To think they had thought of rushing at such a master. The guards all felt a chill down their spines. And they thought that if he wanted to kill them, he could do so as much as he wanted.

"Alright. The sound won't be heard here, so shall we talk?"

After moving to another room, Mok Wigun said. Eunuch Yang answered obediently.

"I was looking for the inner core because someone needed it."

"There must be a lot of good things in the imperial palace."

"It was because there is no inner core of the single-horned great serpent in the imperial palace."

It means it must be the inner core of the single-horned great serpent. Mok Wigun asked why that was.

"I don't know the reason either. I just heard that the inner core of the single-horned great serpent is needed."

It didn't seem like he was lying.

"Then why did you come here?"

"I didn't know you were here. I came because of that guy Ju Yeongbak."

The imperial kinsman that Ju Yeongbak was connected to. He had ordered Eunuch Yang to come here.

"Who is that person?"

"It's Imperial Uncle Wu."

Eunuch Yang obediently answered everything he was asked.

"But your martial arts seemed a bit unique. Where did you learn it? It didn't seem like imperial martial arts."

"How did you know that?"

Eunuch Yang was surprised for the first time.

"Because I've seen imperial martial arts. And are you going to talk about something else instead of answering? I asked where you learned that martial arts."

"I learned it from the Imperial Uncle Wu I mentioned earlier."

He said it was a martial art that Imperial Uncle Wu had created by referring to imperial martial arts and various other martial arts. That couldn't be. So he asked a few more questions, but Eunuch Yang seemed to really believe so.

"But why did you attack me earlier?"

"Attack? I just checked what your skill was like."

Eunuch Yang said that although Mok Wigun was a person to watch out for, he was not a target for assassination. He just said that he had done so to check because he lacked information.

"But is it okay for you to tell me all this?"

"There's nothing to keep secret. It's okay to talk about this much."

Eunuch Yang seemed to be a very lenient person to himself. Mok Wigun asked if he was lying. But Eunuch Yang said as if he was being wronged.

"I haven't said a single lie. On the Eastern Depot's list, Mok Wigun is listed as a target to be recruited if possible."

"Even though he is related to the Empress Dowager by marriage and has a good relationship with the general's manor?"

"Even if he is related by marriage, there has been no contact for a long time. Then he is no different from a stranger. And isn't it true that he is not directly related to the general's manor?"

So he said he was not clearly classified as an enemy.

"How about it? Cooperating with the Eastern Depot. If you do that, I will make today's incident as if it never happened."

"My personality is a bit dirty, so I'm not good at cooperating with people."

"But you won't be able to stay alone forever. So joining hands with the Eastern Depot..."

Mok Wigun covered Eunuch Yang's mouth.

"I also don't like people who talk a lot and are noisy. I was originally going to just let everyone go, but suddenly I want to cut off your tongue and send you away."

At those words, Eunuch Yang was startled. The warning seemed to have worked properly, and even when he removed his hand, he did not open his mouth.

"I don't do anything unless I'm touched first. How about it? I think we can have a good relationship if the Eastern Depot doesn't do anything strange."

"We also have no intention of attacking and making enemies."

An unbelievable thing to say. But there are times when you have to deliberately show such a side.

"Alright. Let's get along well like that. You probably know if you've investigated me. That if you touch me first, I'll pay you back several times over."

Mok Wigun gave Pyon Juksu a glance. At that, Pyon Juksu moved behind Eunuch Yang.

"It seems there was a misunderstanding, so let's forget everything that happened today. The acupoints will be released in a little while, so you don't have to worry. How about it? It would be good to do that, right?"

In the meantime, Pyon Juksu, who was behind Eunuch Yang, was using his power with both hands on the guy's head. Eunuch Yang didn't know, but behind him, black and red energy was surging, creating a bizarre scene.

"Do you agree?"

"Alright. I will do so."

Eunuch Yang said in a slightly sleepy voice.

"You'll go back and report well, right?"

"Of course. I will go back and report that Mok Wigun is not hostile to the Eastern Depot."

"Good. Very good. Then we'll go back, so let's get along well in the future."

From behind, Pyon Juksu staggered for a moment. But he nodded his head as if he had finished safely. And all the surging black and red energy was sucked into Pyon Juksu's body.

After finishing the work like that, Mok Wigun and Pyon Juksu went outside. When they were a little away from the building where the guys were, Mok Wigun asked.

"You planted it properly, right?"

"Of course. Who am I?"

It would only be a headache to beat up the guys. So he was thinking of using them to find out more information.

"Haa. But it's really hard. In the past, this much would have been no problem."

"It will get better gradually. I'll look for something good, so just wait a little."

"Yes. I think I really need some blood these days."

He had planted a power in Eunuch Yang's head. If he talked about the events here, his senses would be shared with Pyon Juksu. Then he would be able to know who he met and what he talked about.

Mok Wigun and Pyon Juksu walked towards So Jeonghak's house under the moonlight.

* * *

"Huh? The effect seems a little weak."

Won Gagyeol, who had eaten the Cheongsim Hwallyeokhwan, said. It was a daily routine for the disciples of the Zhongnan Sect to take medicine for quick recovery after training. But he felt that his stamina was recovering less than usual.

"The one you just ate will be like that."

At Mok Wigun's words, all the disciples were disappointed. The effect of the one for sale was lowered. It was made that way to produce it in large quantities. Still, it was an amazing item.

"So you're selling the regular version and selling the original one for special customers?"

Pyon Juksu said with interest.

"Because that's much better for sales."

"It's convenient for me. It's not really difficult to make the one with lowered efficacy."

"By the way, the work will be finished today, so we'll have to leave now."

Today, So Jeonghak's father had returned. So Jeonghak had gone and was in the middle of talking. So all the work would be clearly finished. After that, they would leave for Mount Wudang tomorrow.

It seemed better to have stayed here. The food that Jeonghak's mother made was also delicious, and he could comfortably focus only on training.

At that time, So Jeonghak was talking with his parents. So Jeonghak's father had heard all the stories so far, and he had also heard So Jeonghak's words.

"Let's consider the marriage talks to be off."

The main wife said with a troubled expression.

"But even for the sake of the relationship with Lord Ju."

She emphasized that Lord Ju strongly wanted it. But So Jeonghak's father shook his head.

"Then are you saying we should give up the item for the sake of the marriage talks with Lord Ju?"

The item that the So family merchant group would sell was enormous. Considering the value of that item, the relationship with Lord Ju was nothing.

"As a merchant, if I have to choose one of the two, I will choose the item."

Jeonghak's father, who spoke firmly. The main wife, Lady Yu, realized that things had gone wrong.

"Do as you please."

Saying so, she left the room. Jeonghak's father looked at her with a bitter expression. Then he looked at his son So Jeonghak and smiled.

"You are admirable. It's all thanks to you."

"I didn't do anything. It's all thanks to my friend."

At So Jeonghak's words, his father said with a serious posture.

"That is also your ability and strength. As you get older, who is around you becomes more important than your own ability."

He said that's why people try so hard to enter the great sects. Because the connections made there will be a great help to their lives later.

But he hadn't expected that from So Jeonghak. Because he knew the situation of Zhongnan well. But he had managed to have a good friend and had solved such a big family matter.

"So cherish your relationships."

So Jeonghak thought he should thank Mok Wigun once more when he met him. No matter how much of a friend he was, it's not easy to find someone who gives such a gift. Mok Wigun was a friend, a benefactor, and a master. He was the person who had changed his life.
