Chapter 135

 

He reassured the surprised Ju In-hye.

 

“The Elixir Room is even better. If we use this True Origin Pill, the treatment will be faster. Since Young Lady made it herself, the compatibility should be good too.”

 

“Ah!”

 

After hearing the explanation, she quickly understood.

 

“Being treated with medicine you made yourself is a precious experience, isn’t it.”

 

“That’s right.”

 

“It won’t take long.”

 

For some reason, as he exercised his Divine Power, her Self-Blood Technique no longer worsened.

 

‘The Domain probably helps too.’

 

Swoosh-

 

Jung Myeong conducted a direct diagnosis and understood.

 

The blocked Qi and Blood was being cleared, and Divine Power was flowing through that Qi and Blood, helping with recovery.

 

At the same time, he also understood one benefit she had gained.

 

‘This could be called a fortuitous encounter.’

 

With her Qi and Blood blocked, she couldn’t properly handle Divine Power.

 

Like suffering from Divine Blood, falling into lethargy and being trapped in her own body was her daily routine.

 

When Jung Myeong cleared it for her, the Divine Power was moving like a fish that had found water.

 

Meanwhile, the method was also unique.

 

The Divine Power seemed to wish that her body wouldn’t be further damaged.

 

It was moving carefully, circulating only through her Qi and Blood.

 

Divine Power protecting its own master?

 

Wasn’t Divine Power usually something that would devour its own master?

 

Because of this, didn’t those who possessed Divine Power end their lives with short lifespans?

 

However, she was completely different.

 

It was clearly circulating as if protecting her body, no matter how he looked at it.

 

‘Does Ju In-hye’s Divine Power possess will? Or… is this the original nature of Divine Power?’

 

He discovered an unexpected characteristic.

 

[You comprehend a part of the power called Divine Power.]

 

In fact, this was something that would have been difficult for Jeon to know in the past.

 

If it weren’t for the heightened Ki Sensing he gained from undergoing Bone Transformation and opening the Heavenly Central Acupoint, he wouldn’t have been able to feel this flow at all.

 

‘Anyway… I’ve discovered something interesting.’

 

Now that he could see the flow of Divine Power, treatment different from before was possible.

 

[Commencing treatment.]

 

Swoosh- Swoosh-

 

He responded to the flow of her Divine Power while simultaneously opening the blocked Blood Meridians together.

 

‘This is easy.’

 

Unlike before when he only used his own Internal Energy, with her Divine Power joining in, the treatment became much easier.

 

Though the simple treatment took quite a while.

 

“It’s finished.”

 

He could definitely produce results.

 

* * *

 

After finishing the treatment, her face was flushed bright red.

 

“Ah…!”

 

It was thanks to her body improving and her complexion getting better.

 

She clearly looked better at a glance, but procedures had to be followed.

 

Confirmation through the patient herself.

 

After treatment, knowing what the patient herself felt was also a very important procedure.

 

“How do you feel?”

 

“My body… feels so light?”

 

Fortunately, the answer was correct.

 

Her body had actually improved.

 

She seemed to be brimming with vitality.

 

“Physician. Would I be mistaken if I thought the treatment showed much greater progress than before?”

 

A question filled with anxiety, wondering if it might be a mistake.

 

“No. There has actually been significant progress.”

 

“As I thought…! I knew it!”

 

When Jung Myeong answered with confidence, her expression brightened.

 

It was such a beautiful smile that it seemed to brighten even the surroundings.

 

‘Good.’

 

When the patient was happy like this.

 

This was the most fulfilling moment for him.

 

A smile naturally bloomed on his face as well.

 

Here, he told her about one more benefit.

 

“Yes. And don’t you feel something?”

 

“Feel something, you mean?”

 

“The flow of Divine Power.”

 

“Wait a moment. Ah… You’re right!? Divine Power is… mmm…”

 

She was someone who knew how to handle Divine Power.

 

It was the moment when she, who could hear and feel from afar, exercised her Divine Power.

 

“Young Lady?”

 

“…”

 

As if sensing something, she fell deeply into concentration.

 

She gave off the same atmosphere as when Yeo Eun-so had been in crisis before.

 

‘What on earth?’

 

It wasn’t a mistake.

 

She was sensing the flow when she suddenly opened her eyes wide and pointed in one direction.

 

“Over there! There’s someone over there looking for you, Physician.”

 

“…Is that so?”

 

“Yes. I’m not sure exactly, but… I think you should go see. The flow isn’t bad.”

 

Was it an effect of the treatment?

 

Unlike before, her words were a bit more specific.

 

‘This is something new?’

 

He felt deep curiosity about that.

 

Yet he didn’t forget one thing.

 

That was the verification process.

 

The process to confirm how much stronger her Divine Power had become.

 

The method of verification for him was simple.

 

“Then I’ll be going.”

 

Jung Myeong launched his body in the direction she pointed.

 

* * *

 

‘Indeed… I wonder what will happen this time?’

 

Jung Myeong’s mind was filled with curiosity.

 

With the last manifestation of Divine Power, he had saved Yeo Eun-so.

 

This time she spoke of a flow. It felt more like an opportunity than a crisis.

 

It was positive. So naturally his curiosity was overflowing.

 

Swoosh-

 

And so he continued steadily in one direction.

 

“Huh…!”

 

Just then, he felt intense Killing Intent as if trying to catch his footsteps.

 

Killing Intent at such an unexpected time.

 

‘Was it wrong?’

 

Rather than feeling threatened by the Killing Intent, he felt confused.

 

Someone with this level of Killing Intent was no longer his match.

 

What mattered to him now was whether Ju In-hye’s Divine Power had worked or not.

 

But Killing Intent in a place where there should be a good flow?

 

‘I don’t understand.’

 

That flow certainly wasn’t referring to Killing Intent.

 

There must be some other meaning.

 

In any case, hadn’t he encountered Killing Intent directed at him while running in one direction?

 

One thing was certain.

 

The one who sent him Killing Intent was the one connected to whatever flow she was talking about.

 

“Since we have nothing to hide from each other, why don’t you reveal yourself?”

 

He had found the source of the killing intent.

 

Shortly after, just as he said, the owner of the killing intent revealed himself.

 

“It’s been a while.”

 

“What brings you here? This is quite close to my Medical Clinic, unlike your usual haunts?”

 

The one who revealed himself was someone Jung Myeong knew.

 

‘Not a welcome sight.’

 

For Jung Myeong, this wasn’t a face he wanted to see.

 

Every time he met this person, his mental energy would be greatly depleted.

 

Especially, the closer this fellow got to his Medical Clinic, the more complicated things became.

 

So he couldn’t help but dislike it.

 

The other party surely knew this too, yet despite Jung Myeong’s words, his expression remained calm.

 

“I happened to be heading to your Medical Clinic when I saw you passing by.”

 

“What a coincidental stroke of chance?”

 

“That’s right.”

 

A coincidence, he says.

 

‘This is probably true.’

 

Since Jung Myeong also moved trusting in Divine Power, a coincidence would indeed be a coincidence.

 

Or perhaps they had touched upon some kind of flow.

 

“I seem to be quite lucky.”

 

The other party happened to be delighted at seeing Jung Myeong.

 

Since he openly displayed his emotions without hiding them, Jung Myeong decided to be contrary.

 

“Then what was that sudden killing intent about?”

 

“It seemed like the fastest way to stop your steps.”

 

“Good grief…”

 

The question about the killing intent. The answer that came back was absurd.

 

To suddenly send out killing intent just to stop someone’s steps.

 

‘This isn’t even the Demon Sect…’

 

He had crossed the line by far.

 

A madman.

 

But considering this man’s nickname, it wasn’t incomprehensible.

 

“That’s why the character for madness is attached to his nickname. Because he’s insane.”

 

“Hehe… When the world is mad, how can I alone be sane?”

 

“Oh my. Seeing you speak as if reciting verses, have you gone mad in yet another way?”

 

“Seeing how the world turns, I’ve become even madder.”

 

“Is that so?”

 

“The timing is suspicious.”

 

“And you came to see me at such a suspicious time?”

 

“Bonjwa has no one else to consult with besides you.”

 

“That network of yours is narrower than I thought.”

 

“Indeed it is.”

 

“Well then. Let’s get straight to the point. What’s the reason you came to find me, Gyeom Gwang-ja?”

 

Gyeom Gwang-ja!

 

This was the moment when he who had met with the Old Man came to find Jung Myeong.

 

* * *

 

The moment of continuing a special meeting also took place outside Hangzhou.

 

Amid the lapping waves, the Old Man arrived at one of the islands in the Jusan Archipelago. As if this wasn’t his first time here, he immediately proceeded straight ahead.

 

Not long after he set out, a wooden stockade came into view.

 

In front of it, a man who had been crouching like a scoundrel looking at poppies slowly raised his head.

 

“Who goes there?”

 

Ju Ha-nangeom, who acted like a scoundrel but possessed extraordinary sword power within.

 

This was the moment he greeted the Old Man.

 

“Hmm… You don’t recognize me. Time must have passed indeed.”

 

The Old Man seemed quite disappointed.

 

This piqued Ju Ha-nangeom’s interest.

 

“Recognize what? What nonsense are you spouting?”

 

“Isn’t this the place of the Nanha Sect?”

 

A question instead of an answer.

 

“Nanha Sect? Hmm… I’m not sure. Ah. I heard it was called by that name before.”

 

“Before?”

 

“Now it’s been dead for a long time.”

 

“Huh. So they couldn’t hold out in the end.”

 

To this, Ju Ha-nangeom answered obediently.

 

It was kindness uncharacteristic of someone with his usual brutal temperament.

 

“Old man, you seem to have gone senile. If you’re going to talk nonsense, get lost. I’m in a good mood today because something valuable came in… Grrk… Gk….”

 

However, kindness doesn’t always return as kindness.

 

Before he knew it, a deep line had been drawn across Ju Ha-nangeom’s neck.

 

‘Wh, when….’

 

Ju Ha-nangeom, famous for his Swift Sword, hadn’t even seen it.

 

By the time he felt pain, red streams of blood were already flowing down.

 

‘So futilely like this….’

 

Living by the sword, he had thought he would die someday.

 

However, Ju Ha-nangeom had never imagined it would be like this.

 

Even as he looked with resentment, the Old Man didn’t avoid his eyes.

 

“You go on ahead. I need to go Inside.”

 

‘That old bastard… damn….’

 

Thud.

 

Unable to even respond, he collapsed as a cold corpse.

 

As if that was the signal.

 

Clang- Clang-

 

Someone watching from atop the wooden fence rang the warning bell, and inside the stockade became chaotic. The alert level immediately rose.

 

The Old Man surely wasn’t unaware of this.

 

“It’s been a long time.”

 

With eyes as welcoming as if visiting his hometown, he stepped Inside.
