The World's Greatest Troublemaker

Chapter 95

The Huashan Sect was at a loss as to how to deal with it. Since the magistrate was investigating it himself, they couldn't press down with force.

"What should we do about this? That crazy bastard is spreading rumors everywhere."

Mok Wigun hadn't just sent a letter and finished. He had used all sorts of methods to spread rumors. So everyone was looking forward to how Huashan would come out. Isn't it said that there's nothing as fun as watching a fight?

"Haha. It's really tiring because he's rushing in without looking back and forth like this."

When had there ever been a place that had charged at the Huashan Sect like that? Since the opponent was coming out so recklessly, the Huashan Sect was also flustered.

"It's not a good way to deal with that."

The sect leader said. Whether he apologized or settled the dispute. Either way was disadvantageous to the Huashan Sect. So it was better not to touch that problem.

"But since he's spreading rumors like that, we can't just keep ignoring it, can we?"

"So there has to be something to divert people's attention."

"Is there anything with that much of an impact?"

The sect leader also seemed to be troubled. Because it seemed difficult to cover up the matter with the Demon Dragon Manor with just any ordinary matter. But he soon came up with a good idea. He had remembered that there was something that always worked well in the martial world.

That was the Demonic Cult and the Blood Cult. Those two were issues that always focused everyone's attention.

"Let's try to make one. Won't it be possible enough if we make good use of the information we've gathered so far?"

The sect leader added one more thing to that.

"And isn't it strange? That a child named Mok Wigun and the Light Wind Unit caught those monsters."

* * *

"They say the Demon Dragon Manor caught the single-horned great serpent from beginning to end?"

"The magistrate investigated, and that's the conclusion he came to."

Because the magistrate had announced the results of the investigation, the news had spread throughout Chang'an. But there were still people who raised questions.

"Aish. Honestly, what ability does the Demon Dragon Manor have to catch those monsters? Hundreds of masters, including the Huashan Sect, failed and died."

"That's what I'm saying. It doesn't make sense. They either almost caught it before, or someone from the reclusive masters caught it, and the Demon Dragon Manor just brought it."

You can't convince everyone.

"And there's no need to. Why? Just let the people who think that way think that way."

Mok Wigun said to train in that time if he had time to worry about such things.

"Gu Mungoe. Got it?"

"Why are you only picking on me?"

Gu Mungoe grumbled.

"It's because you're the one who can't stand it the most and keeps fighting."

Mok Wigun said not to create trouble for no reason.

"The Huashan Sect is too quiet, so the signs are strange. So everyone, be careful with your behavior."

At times like this, they're planning something. If not, they would have already responded. And these days, there were a lot of other things to do besides that. Merchants were coming to ask for protection.

"It's to the point where it's troublesome because too many have come."

Dan Bulseok said as if it was a headache. The Demon Dragon Manor had become the strongest force in the Chang'an area. It was all because the Mok family and the Baek family had fallen.

If the Mok family and the Baek family had fallen, what would happen to the places that had been protected by the two families? Of course, they can't protect all of them.

"Because they're anxious. What would happen if there was no one to protect them in times like these?"

Although it's less so inside Chang'an Castle, the outside is full of lawless places. So they were asking for the protection of a place with strong military power, even if it was dirty. Because if not, it wouldn't be strange to die at any time.

"But let me ask you one thing."

Mok Wigun asked the seven Light Wind Unit members. Because they were Mok Wigun's closest aides and the people who would lead the Light Wind Unit.

"Are you thinking of doing a proper job of protecting them?"

"What do you mean by 'proper'?"

"I'm asking if you're really protecting them because you want to. And if you have a concrete plan."

They all just looked at each other's faces. But they soon came to an agreement.

"We're thinking of doing as much as we can."

"What's the reason?"

"Because we've experienced it."

They had experienced what it was like not to be protected very desperately. The misery was indescribable. So they couldn't refuse the request to protect them.

"Is your resolve firm? Are you confident that you won't give up in the middle if it's too much?"

"Of course. There will never be such a thing."

Mok Wigun, who had confirmed that the will of all seven members was firm, hardened his thoughts. Since it had come to this, he thought he would do it properly.

"Actually, we're still a little short in terms of numbers. And the training is also not finished yet."

Although he's praised from the outside, in Mok Wigun's eyes, he was still terrible. Since the Demon Dragon Manor is currently making a name for itself, there won't be a big problem, but as time passes, many incidents will occur.

"The problem is that it's a very chaotic time right now, so guys like thieves can aim anywhere."

Mok Wigun is satisfied only when he does things for sure. If he promised to protect them, he must keep it. He thinks it's better not to make a promise at all if he can't.

"I can't stand it if we get robbed by thieves after we promised to protect them."

It's impossible to prevent such a thing from happening even once. But it can be minimized.

"So let's make our symbol. And tell them to put it up."

This is a place protected by the Demon Dragon Manor. So don't touch it. It's a sign like this.

"Ah. It's like a mark."

A security agency also puts up a mark when transporting goods. It means, 'We are this kind of place, so don't attack us carelessly.'

"That's right. If there's something like that, it will be effective."

"A flag would be good. Who would dare to attack if we hang up a flag with the words 'Demon Dragon Manor' on it? Kuhahaha."

Gu Mungoe said with a loud laugh. Mok Wigun shook his head.

"The Demon Dragon Manor is good, but how about that?"

Mok Wigun pointed to the horn of the single-horned great serpent.

"Good. Since there are many people who don't know the characters, it would be better to use that horn as a mark."

There are few people who know the characters. What do they know about what characters are written on the flag? So a security agency doesn't just hang up a flag, but they also shout as they pass by. They shout out loud which security agency they are.

"Good. But from now on is important. There will still be guys who touch it."

Since it's not well known yet, an incident will definitely break out. And how they respond at that time will determine the future of the Demon Dragon Manor.

"If they're caught, they'll be crushed. It's the end. We have to show them for sure what happens if they touch us."

"Of course."

Everyone said it was natural. But Mok Wigun looked at the Light Wind Unit who had answered.

"You may have to handle it much more cruelly than you think."

If you handle it clumsily, it's the same as inviting another attack or plunder. So there is also a need to be cruel to the point where it makes you frown.

"We've also lived as ronin for a long time. What would a ronin do? We've done a lot of bloody things in the meantime."

Mok Wigun also knows about the life of a ronin. He didn't ask because he didn't know that. He had asked once more to confirm if their resolve was really firm.

"Alright. Then from now on, the mark of the Demon Dragon Manor is that."

Mok Wigun pointed to the huge horn that was placed in the courtyard of the manor. The horn of the single-horned great serpent was placed on a high platform, and it was to be seen from a distance.

And after that, the places that had raised a flag high one by one increased. A huge horn was drawn on that flag.

"Do I have to steal it from the magistrate's treasure vault?"

Mok Wigun was troubled. It was because he couldn't find a way to get a luminous pearl. He had also inquired with Yi Jeong-gi, but the reaction was similar to Yuk Samcheon's. He doesn't know at all. Even if he finds out, the price is enormous. And there's a high possibility that it can't be solved with money.

"Everything else is fine, but this one is giving me a headache."

Really, everything except for the dantian was fine. Everything was proceeding smoothly and was settling down. First of all, the merchant group side was as good as it could be. The largest, the Three Thousand Merchant Group and the World Merchant Group. Because he had established a close relationship with those two places.

"You're also really amazing. Usually, if you connect with one of the two, you're bound to be at odds with the other."

Pyon Juksu muttered from the side.

"Phew. I think my potion research will bear fruit if I do a little more, but that little bit is difficult. I think I'm going crazy."

The guy also had a problem and had come to discuss it, and they ended up complaining to each other like this.

"Should I try to find out through Haomun?"

But the possibility was slim. Since the luminous pearl is such a precious and secretly held item, the probability of there being information is very low.

Still, it was convenient because he was getting most of the information through Haomun. Since he was also maintaining a very good relationship with Haomun, there was no big problem with the information side either.

The problem was the number and level of the Light Wind Unit. And Mok Wigun's internal energy problem.

"Ah... If I could just accumulate internal energy, I wouldn't have any worries..."

To do that, he has to do the bone marrow washing, and to do that, he needs a luminous pearl. But the luminous pearl is hard to get.

"Data! I'm also short on data."

The guy said that if he could know even a little about the existing method, it would be helpful, but since he doesn't know it at all, it feels like he's looking for a needle in a haystack.

"Get me some data. I think I'm going to go crazy at this rate. Even that Hwangbo Ryeong has a limit to what she knows, so I'm not making any progress."

Pyon Juksu whined, asking him to get something, even if it's not related to pills, but related to formations or barriers.

"Am I doing this just for myself? Try to get something."

"I'm also continuously looking into it, so wait. It's because it's not that easy to get."

Mok Wigun subtly suggested.

"You can just bring it out like you did with the fruit of the thousand-year-old flower spirit grass."

"That's not possible."

Pyon Juksu said with a sullen expression.

"I want to, but my blood won't allow such a thing."

"Even though you brought out the fruit?"

"I told you. That was for a just punishment. I can't tolerate doing it for my own personal gain."

"You live a tiring life."

Pyon Juksu got annoyed.

"I wish I could. But what can I do if it doesn't work like that? What can I do if that's what I am? Damn it."

The guy also seemed to be frustrated.

"Alright. There must be a way somehow."

He had hit a wall in many ways. The luminous pearl and what Pyon Juksu wanted were all things that were hard to get.

"Phew. I don't know, so I'll have to make a request to Haomun for now."

Mok Wigun headed to Yeseowon with a frustrated heart. Hoping that there would be a good solution there.
