Chapter 88. Cho Ryu Hyang’s First Business Venture
“Ow……. my body hurts so much.”
The man who was stretching while looking into the mirror, was none other than the heir of the North Sea Ice Palace, Juk Hyul Myung.
He stretched a few times, and cracked his neck a bit.
Crack-
Craack-!
After stretching all his muscles, Juk Hyul Myung grinned a toothy grin.
“Fufu, I have revived completely. Perfect.”
A lot of things went wrong in his plan because of his battle with Shi Yup.
But after much rest, he had completely recovered.
Juk Hyul Myung admired his self through the mirror, as he sang to himself.
Then, he moved his gaze down to his chest.
After looking at it for a bit, he licked his lips, and covered up his chest with his clothes.
The scar was quite hard to see, as it was well-hidden by the clothes.
But he would never be able to forget it.
“Well, I learned a good lesson from it, so it’s all good, I guess.”
He tried to erase it, but it didn’t really work.
After all, the wound was quite big.
It was sad that his beautiful body was injured, but since he learned something from it, he was able to let it go.
“I can take a wound like this.”
It was the first time he got a scar from someone.
This motivated him very much.
“This won’t happen ever again.”
As he resolved himself, someone began to knock.
Knock knock-
As Juk Hyul Myung was able to sense the person, he didn’t bother responding.
He just kept admiring the mirror.
Knock knock knock-!
The sound of the doorknock got louder.
Juk Hyul Myung ignored it, and kept praising himself through the mirror.
Soon enough, a girl walked in without permission and complained.
“…….Senior brother, isn’t this humanely too much? You should at least pretend to notice me. You make me really feel bad.”
“You really don’t realize how much courage it takes for me to look at an ugly person like you, do you?”
“…….tch.”
Juk Hyul Myung’s Junior Sister, Ju Da Hye, pouted.
Only then did Juk Hyul Myung turn around.
“Ehh? What’s up with that face, junior sister? You look very discontent?”
When Juk Hyul Myung said this with a threatening tone, Ju Da Hye inched backwards.
Then she shouted out in fear.
“…….D, don’t forget I’m your savior!”
Juk Hyul Myung stopped.
He then spoke with a tired face.
“Damn, so you managed to find a weakness of mine.”
When it looked like Juk Hyul Myung wasn’t going to tease her, Ju Da Hye lifted her head and grinned.
“Ehehe, senior brother~”
“What? Why are you smiling like that?”
“Senior brotherrr~!”
Ju Da Hye suddenly latched onto Juk Hyul Myung’s waist.

Juk Hyul Myung turned pale.
“Junior sister, aren’t you going a little too far?”
“Eh? What? Are you going to hit me? Your savior?”
When Ju Da Hye said this, Juk Hyul Myung’s cheeks twitched a bit.
He couldn’t hit her.
Normally, he’d attack her, but he just couldn’t this time.
This made him extremely pained.
‘Shi Yup……. I will have my revenge.’
As Juk Hyul Myung strengthened his resolve to have his revenge,
Ju Da Hye buried her face into Juk Hyul Myung’s chest, and muttered to herself.
“When else would I be able to touch you, other than now? If the sisters in the palace heard of this, they’d be so jealous! Hehe, it’s good that I came here with you.”
“…….Oh my, you think completely different from me.”
Juk Hyul Myung frowned when he realized Ju Da Hye wasn’t going to let him go.
At that point, Ju Da Hyu blushed a bit, and let go.
“Someone called.”
“About time. It’s been too long.”
He went missing at a critical time.
Juk Hyul Myung stretched out his hand, disregarding Ju Da Hye’s blushed face.
“Give it.”
Ju Da Hye made a slightly disappointed face, then gave him a piece of paper.
“Let’s read, shall we……”
The paper was encrypted, but since Juk Hyul Myung memorized everything already, it was easy for him to decode it.
His eyes began flashing as he read.
“Hoh? So that great heir of the church is in Sichuan?”
“Yes. I think he came as the representative.”
“How daring.”
It was unexpected.
Why would a heir of the church come out to a dangerous place like this?
“Teacher wants him eliminated.”
Obviously.
Pretty much everyone in the world except the church was probably thinking this.
‘We can’t create a new Gongson Chun Gi.’
The heir of the church, and the student of Gongson Chun Gi. That enough made it worth risking one’s life to kill the boy.
Juk Hyul Myung thought this as he stroked his chin, and smiled.
‘How strong are you?’
There was no information whatsoever about the heir.
That was strange.
No one knew the heir’s gender, age, habits, or likes. There wasn’t even basic info.
That just served to boost his expectations.
It made him believe that the heir would be worthy of having Gongson Chun Gi as a teacher.
‘But…….’
It wouldn’t happen a second time.
A monster like Gongson Chun Gi mustn’t live on.
There was a need to strike the roots when it was still young.
Everyone moved towards Sichuan while thinking this.

Cho Ryu Hyang realized that he actually felt quite exhausted when he woke up.
It was actually tiring to even lift a finger.
‘What happened?’
