Legend of the Evil Martial God
Chapter 109
The elder’s name was Mok Yonggi and his granddaughter’s name was Mok Hwaran.
When their names were called, the two people began trembling while holding each other tightly.
Jeok Wigang reassured them.
“You don’t need to be so afraid. I’ll stay by your side.”
“No. P-please, Benefactor, just stay inside. I’m afraid they might harm you too.”
After saying that, he suddenly got up from his seat and hurriedly went outside.
When he came outside, soldiers were standing around the house with frightening expressions.
“Why did you come out so late!”
One soldier, seemingly angry, tried to strike the elder’s stomach with the lower part of his spear.
At that moment.
Thud-.
A hand suddenly appeared and grabbed the spear.
The soldier looked up in surprise to see Jeok Wigang standing there, holding the spear.
“What? Was there an accomplice?”
“The Magistrate said to bring everyone connected to these people. Capture that guy too.”
“You heard him? Let go right now and obediently accept the rope bonds.”
“I don’t want to.”
“This bastard? Are you saying you’ll resist right now?”
“Yeah.”
“You need to get a taste of pain to come to your senses! What are you all doing! Beat him up!”
As the soldiers all rushed toward Jeok Wigang at once, there was someone who blocked them.
It was Ye Yahyeon.
“Don’t kill them, just make them obedient.”
“Yes.”
At Jeok Wigang’s words, he grinned and moved toward the charging soldiers.
Thud thud thud thud-.
“Kugh!”
“Kehk!”
Soldiers flying backward in an instant.
The moment they tried to regain their senses.
Along with a flash like twinkling stars, they felt a heavy impact as if their heads and bodies were being separated.
Crack-.
The soldier who took Ye Yahyeon’s kick to the temple foamed at the mouth and fainted on the spot.
Then the soldiers who were getting up also all fainted from Ye Yahyeon’s attacks.
“I told you to make them obedient. What are you doing making them faint?”
“I hit them gently, but what can I do if these guys are weak?”
“Wake them up again.”
“Yes.”
Ye Yahyeon began waking up the fainted soldiers with a dissatisfied expression.
Tap tap-.
After tapping the bodies of the fainted soldiers a few times.
“Kyaaaak!”
The soldiers got up screaming.
Then they began writhing wildly like earthworms exposed to sunlight.
“Kyeoeoook!”
Ye Yahyeon watched the suffering soldiers without intervening.
They were in such agony that it was unbearable to watch with open eyes.
Mok Yonggi and Mok Hwaran squeezed their eyes shut and turned their heads away.
How much time passed like that.
“They should be obedient now.”
Ye Yahyeon asked while releasing the soldiers’ pressure points.
“You’ll listen well, right?”
The soldiers answered as soon as Ye Yahyeon finished speaking.
“Yes! That’s right!”
“Just give us any order!”
“Good.”
Satisfied with the soldiers’ reaction, Ye Yahyeon said to Jeok Wigang.
“Preparations are complete.”
“Stand up.”
The soldiers immediately stood up at Jeok Wigang’s words.
“Who did the Magistrate tell you to bring?”
“Th-that elder over there…”
Crack-.
Thud-.
“You should call him Elder.”
When Ye Yahyeon corrected with a grin, the fallen soldier jumped up from his spot and said.
“Yes! I was told to bring that Elder and the young lady!”
“You also said to bring anyone related.”
“Yes! If there are any suspicious people near the Elder, I was told to bring them too!”
“Why?”
“Because Im Baekmun keeps saying strange things, and he suspects that the Elder had someone torture Im Baekmun!”
“Really? Let’s go see. I’m curious what he’s saying.”
“Yes! I’ll guide you!”
“Are we just going like this?”
“Pardon?”
“You’re making the Elder walk?”
“Th-that is.”
“Seems like you still haven’t come to your senses? What’s going on?”
When Jeok Wigang spoke with a displeased expression, Ye Yahyeon’s eyes turned frighteningly cold.
Seeing those eyes, the soldiers presented their backs and sat down.
“P-please get on. We’ll escort you comfortably to the government office.”
“Hey, then we walk? Why are you all so clueless? Should I really do it one more time?”
“N-no! We’ll get a horse cart right away!”
“That’s right. Now you’re finally making sense. Get one quickly. If you try to escape elsewhere, be prepared. I’ll chase you to the ends of the Central Plains and skin you alive.”
At Ye Yahyeon’s words, Jeok Wigang scolded him.
“What do you mean skin alive? So cruel. Use gentler words.”
“Yes.”
Damn…
Ye Yahyeon grumbled inwardly with dissatisfaction.
“What are you looking at? Why aren’t you moving?”
“Huh? Yes!”
The soldiers frantically ran off to get a horse cart while the Mok family grandparent and grandchild watched in a daze.
“I-is this really okay?”
When Mok Yonggi asked in a fearful voice, Jeok Wigang smiled and said.
“Yes. You don’t need to worry about anything, so please be at ease.”
Though Jeok Wigang reassured him, Mok Yonggi’s anxious feelings only grew.
The soldiers who brought the horse cart.
Drenched in sweat, they opened the door and bowed their heads.
“Please get in. We’ll escort you comfortably to the government office.”
At this, Jeok Wigang said to Mok Yonggi.
“Let’s get in.”
“A-are we really getting in?”
“Yes. They said they’ll escort us comfortably. Don’t worry and get in.”
Mok Yonggi and Mok Hwaran got into the horse cart anxiously.
Jeok Wigang followed and climbed in after them.
Ye Yahyeon didn’t follow them up but closed the door.
Looking at the soldiers, they were all trembling with fear.
If they went like this, the magistrate’s anger would be directed at them.
But if they didn’t do it, Ye Yahyeon was too frightening.
Either way, they were in big trouble.
To the soldiers standing with dejected expressions, Ye Yahyeon said.
“Why are you all so dejected? Don’t worry. The magistrate won’t be able to say anything to you either.”
“Huh?”
Ye Yahyeon showed them his waist.
The soldiers looked puzzled about why he was showing them that.
“This is called a Dragon Insignia Token. Have you heard of it?”
They all shook their heads.
“They don’t educate you properly. They should have educated you to recognize it immediately. This is a plaque given only to Imperial Guard Commanders. I am that Imperial Guard Commander, which means I have a much higher position than some mere seventh-rank magistrate.”
“I-Imperial Guard Commander?”
“That’s right. Now do you have some idea of which side to take?”
“Huh? Yes! Great Person!”
At Ye Yahyeon’s words, hope seemed to bloom in the soldiers’ eyes as they nodded vigorously and changed their behavior.
Then someone came to mind.
Inside the horse cart was a person that even the Imperial Guard Commander couldn’t treat carelessly and had to follow.
A person that even the Imperial Guard Commander couldn’t sit with.
Then how high must that person’s position be.
The soldiers no longer needed to be afraid.
All with relaxed expressions, they set off toward the government office.
The soldiers in front of the government office looked back and forth between the horse cart and their colleague soldiers with bewildered expressions.
“Hey… Are you guys crazy? What the hell are you doing right now?”
He didn’t care what his colleague soldiers were saying and was busy treating the people in the horse cart with courtesy.
“We’ve arrived. Please get out.”
From inside the horse cart, Mok Yonggi’s grandson, whom the magistrate had ordered to be brought, got out.
Everyone was staring blankly, unable to grasp what this situation was about.
“Please come inside.”
The soldiers personally escorted them to the main hall where the magistrate was.
Mok Yonggi’s grandson looked around nervously with a fearful expression.
When they arrived at the main hall, a scream was heard.
“Eek!”
It was Im Baekmun.
Im Baekmun, who had been sitting quietly, was startled the moment he saw Mok Yonggi’s grandson and prostrated himself flat on the ground, begging.
“I’m sorry! I’m sorry!”
Seeing this, the magistrate was convinced.
Mok Yonggi must have done something to Im Baekmun.
More than that, the soldiers’ behavior was strange.
They were bringing Mok Yonggi’s grandson as if treating an honored guest.
Had those fools gone mad?
Behind them were two more people he’d never seen before.
“Who are those men?”
“They are related individuals.”
“Individuals?”
He had ordered to bring related people too, but using such honorific language?
Then Jeok Wigang stepped forward.
“Are you the magistrate?”
“What?”
This one doesn’t seem right in the head either?
Like Im Baekmun, why are there so many people not in their right minds today?
The magistrate pressed his forehead.
“What is your relationship with Mok Yonggi?”
“We met by chance while passing by.”
“By chance? Then, do you also know Im Baekmun over there?”
“I know him. I’m the one who made him like that.”
The magistrate looked at Jeok Wigang as if he couldn’t believe what he was hearing.
“Are you confessing to a crime right now?”
“Crime? That bastard committed the crime, and I merely gave him appropriate punishment.”
“The country has clear laws, and harming others based on personal feelings is illegal! You framed the innocent Im Baekmun who was released without charges and destroyed him! Do you know how grave a crime this is!”
“I don’t know about that. Why did you do it?”
“What?”
“You knew too. That these people here were innocent.”
“Shut up! This is contempt of a magistrate! Guards! Arrest that man and give him a hundred lashes!”
As the soldiers tried to move, Ye Yahyeon stepped forward.
“Don’t move any further. Not if you want to live.”
Along with his words, tremendous killing intent burst forth, and the soldiers froze in terror.
The magistrate also felt that killing intent and spoke with a startled face, stammering.
“Wh-what are you doing?”
“Just answer the question. Why did you frame innocent people?”
“I never did such a thing!”
“Really? I figured you wouldn’t talk easily. Thanks.”
What was he thankful for?
The moment he thought that, Jeok Wigang had somehow approached right beside him.
The startled magistrate stepped back and shouted.
“What are you doing! Stop this man! No, kill him! Kill him right now!”
The moment the soldiers tried to move at the magistrate’s command.
Thud thud thud thud-.
Thump- Thump- Thump-.
Ye Yahyeon instantly suppressed the soldiers with movements too fast to see.
The magistrate shouted outside.
“Intruders! These men are trying to harm the magistrate!”
Hearing that cry, soldiers came rushing in droves.
Ye Yahyeon sighed and said.
“I’ll go handle them and come back.”
“Go ahead.”
Jeok Wigang looked at the magistrate.
“How many people must have suffered unjustly from your wrong verdicts all this time?”
“Wh-what are you saying! I always made fair and just verdicts… Gack!”
“This tongue is the problem. Right?”
Jeok Wigang grabbed the magistrate’s tongue.
He began to pull on it.
“Kyaaaaaaak!”
A chilling scream filled the main hall, and Mok Yonggi’s grandson who was watching the scene was horrified.
Im Baekmun was covering his ears, lying face down and trembling violently.
Rip-.
With the sound of a tongue tearing, blood flowed down between his lips.
Riiip-.
With a loud tearing sound, the magistrate’s tongue was ripped out.
Cough-! Cough-!
“Keuuuk!”
The magistrate covered his mouth in agony.
His face was covered in blood from the overflowing gore.
“Now there won’t be any more innocent victims, right?”
Jeok Wigang said while making eye contact with the suffering magistrate.
“Innocent people come to you trusting only in you, but you not only trampled on their desperation, you even framed them and punished them. What kind of punishment should be given for this?”
The magistrate’s pupils shook.
Hadn’t punishment already been given just now?
Seeing his expression, Jeok Wigang chuckled and said.
“Ah, ripping out your tongue wasn’t punishment – it seemed like an unnecessary part for you, so I kindly removed it for you. The real punishment starts now.”
