Dad Is the Demonic Cult Leader – Chapter 89

89

Chapter 89

“Kekeke! So-yun. How can you be so bright? Not only do you learn to speak and read quickly, but you also have great talent in martial arts…… Your father is a truly blessed man.”

“Hehehe! So-yun. That’s right, that’s right. If you unleash your form like that, your opponent will be completely helpless. Our niece is a genius, a genius indeed.”

“Indeed, older brother. Everyone in Chang’an acknowledges that So-yun is a genius.”

“Tsk tsk. Older brother Yi-dong. You should speak properly. It’s not everyone in Chang’an, but everyone in the Central Plains who will acknowledge it.”

“Kekeke!”

“Hehehe!”

“Hahaha!”

“Kikiki!”

Medical Hall Master Dongbyeok and Vice Sect Leader Il-dong.

Along with 1st Unit Leader Yi-dong and 2nd Unit Leader Sam-dong.

Truly, all the executives of the Dawn Heaven Sect spared no praise, using every imaginable word to describe a single five-year-old child.

“Hehehe! Grandpa, Uncles! Am I really a genius?!”

However.

Those were not empty words.

The Dawn Heaven Sect’s little princess, Jin So-yun……

……was undoubtedly a genius.

Moreover, So-yun, who had turned five, had become more mature in her behavior compared to last year.

Just last year, she would act like an ordinary child, asking to play when bored and occasionally throwing tantrums.

But from this year onwards, she had acquired a maturity beyond her age, like a seven or eight-year-old disciple from a prestigious righteous sect……

“So-yun. Do you want to eat?”

“So-yun. Do you want to wear this?”

“So-yun. Should Uncle give you a piggyback ride?”

Not only Master Dongbyeok and the Dongdong brothers.

Every disciple of the Dawn Heaven Sect volunteered to be So-yun’s guardian, cherishing and caring for her both materially and emotionally.

Furthermore.

“So-yun! Let’s plaaaay!!”

Recently, So-yun had also made a friend.

That friend was a girl of the same age named Yeon Ri-won. This child was also exceptionally bright, belonging to the”gifted”category who spoke and acted beyond her years.

That’s because……

“Welcome, Provincial Governor.”

“Greetings, Master Dongbyeok.”

Yeon Ri-won was the only daughter of the current Shaanxi Provincial Governor, who could be considered the most prestigious family in Shaanxi, surpassing even Chang’an.

The Provincial Governor of Shaanxi was a self-made man who had passed the civil service examination at a young age, a genius-type bureaucrat.

In that sense, it was only natural that Yeon Ri-won, the daughter of such a Provincial Governor, would be intelligent.

“Hehe━ Ri-won. Come here!”

The two children became friends through the Provincial Governor’s frequent visits.

Actually……

It was unusual for the daughter of a high-ranking official like the Provincial Governor of Chengdu to befriend the only daughter of a small local sect.

Usually, the world was dominated by the principle of”officials and martial artists should not interfere with each other,”and even in terms of so-called”social status,”the two families were not on the same level.

However……

The Provincial Governor was a very unconventional person, and the achievements Jin So-cheon had accumulated in the martial world over the past year were truly remarkable.

“Haha. Master Dongbyeok. It seems the construction of the Dawn Heaven Sect’s annex is nearing completion. The Dawn Heaven Sect looks much more magnificent and impressive than my own house. I congratulate you on the birth of such a martial arts sect in Shaanxi, which is under my jurisdiction, and I also thank you as an official.”

“You are too kind, Provincial Governor. I heard that the Provincial Governor’s help was significant when the Sect Leader first tried to establish himself in Chang’an. Rather, it is the Dawn Heaven Sect that should be grateful.”

In that way, the Provincial Governor and the Dawn Heaven Sect.

Jin So-yun and Yeon Ri-won were building a close friendship.

“Grandpa. Can I go to Chang’an Bridge with Ri-won?”

“Huh-huh. It’s not appropriate for two five-year-old children to go to the waterside alone. Gil-bok. Accompany So-yun and Miss Yeon.”

“Yes, Sect Leader.”

A little while later……

While So-yun and Ri-won went out for a walk.

The Provincial Governor, who was drinking Yongjeong tea in the outdoor pavilion of the Dawn Heaven Sect’s main building, subtly spoke to Master Dongbyeok.

“Master Dongbyeok.”

“Speak freely.”

“……I’m embarrassed to say this, but there’s something I’d like to ask.”

“Sir. Why are you hesitating? Please speak your mind openly.”

“Ahem! Well…… It’s nothing else, but…… I heard that you have a great knowledge in various fields besides medicine?”

“I don’t have any particular expertise. However, I can handle various Taoist magic, including formations related to Gimun techniques, and recently, I’ve been focusing on internal alchemy and elixir refinement.”

“You are truly remarkable. The word ‘versatile’ is an understatement.”

“You flatter me, sir.”

“But…… I heard that you also possess other abilities. Ahem!”

For some reason……

The Provincial Governor seemed to be coughing excessively and unable to get to the main point.

However, Master Dongbyeok, who was perceptive, quickly understood the Provincial Governor’s intentions and smiled.

“Sir. Are you perhaps interested in cosmetic surgery or plastic surgery?”

“Well…… It’s not me, but my wife. She heard a rumor somewhere and asked me to inquire if it’s possible to receive cosmetic surgery or plastic surgery from the Medical Hall Master.”

Master Dongbyeok responded with an even wider smile.

“Hahaha. My schedule for procedures is quite full, but…… if it’s a request from the Provincial Governor, I should prioritize it. Please bring your wife and visit me.”

“Ah! Really, Master Dongbyeok?”

“Would any doctor lie about such a thing?”

“Thank you. Hahaha. But I still don’t understand. A person’s appearance is something they are born with. Can it really be changed artificially?”

Master Dongbyeok burst into laughter again at the Provincial Governor’s innocent question.

“Kekeke! Provincial Governor. In the martial world, there are even transformation techniques that can change not only one’s appearance but also their physique. Of course, my cosmetic surgery and plastic surgery are different from such profound methods…… It’s a type of medical treatment.”

“As expected of someone with a reputation as one of the three greatest doctors in the world. You are truly remarkable.”

“Hehehe. Anyway, please visit me anytime.”

“Yes. And Master Dongbyeok.”

“Speak freely.”

“I would like to have my daughter…… taught at the Dawn Heaven Sect. Would that be possible?”

“Miss Yeon?”

This time, even Master Dongbyeok’s eyes widened in surprise.

What kind of place was the Dawn Heaven Sect?

As far as Master Dongbyeok knew, the Dawn Heaven Sect was the most rigorous sect in the world in terms of training.

Having the Provincial Governor’s daughter trained at the Dawn Heaven Sect was an unthinkable idea.

However.

“I wish for Ri-won to learn literature with So-yun at the Dawn Heaven Sect and also acquire martial arts for self-defense. My wife has also agreed, so if Master Dongbyeok or Sect Leader Jin permits, I would like to do so.”

“Sir. I also wholeheartedly agree, as Miss Yeon would become a close friend of So-yun if she learns at the Dawn Heaven Sect, but……”

“Why? Is there a problem?”

“The problem is the Sect Leader. Even if Miss Yeon is your daughter, the Sect Leader will undoubtedly train her rigorously without any preferential treatment. Of course, since she’s still young, he will train her at an appropriate level, but…… still……”

“Master. Don’t worry about that. I don’t intend to raise my child as a delicate flower. Even if it’s a bit challenging, it’s good for her to grow strong.”

“Hmm…… Then, since the Sect Leader is currently away, we can’t officially accept Miss Yeon as a disciple, but how about having her come and go for a while, studying literature with So-yun, and I can teach her physical exercises that are beneficial for health? If she shows talent, I will speak to the Sect Leader and have him take her as a direct disciple.”

“Ah! Would you really do that, Master Dongbyeok?”

“Of course. Miss Yeon is a good child. She will also be a good friend to So-yun.”

The two men exchanged pleasant smiles and shared a cup of alcohol.

Then, the Provincial Governor asked Master Dongbyeok again.

“Master Dongbyeok. Do you think Sect Leader Jin will achieve remarkable results in this martial arts tournament? Of course, I know that Sect Leader Jin’s martial arts skills are extraordinary, but I heard that this tournament is not limited to the righteous path but also includes the black path…… It’s truly a martial arts tournament for the entire martial world. Many promising young martial artists of the Nine Phoenixes level will also participate, won’t they?”

Master Dongbyeok replied with a relaxed expression.

“Sir. Sect Leader Jin……”

“……”

“……will definitely make himself known throughout the world in this tournament.”

“What do you mean?”

“To put it bluntly, unless middle-aged martial artists over forty, in other words, elders from each sect participate…… Sect Leader Jin will undoubtedly be the sole winner.”

The Provincial Governor’s eyes widened at Master Dongbyeok’s words.

‘I…… I have truly judged him well. The intensity of our first encounter…… was not mistaken.’

Once again……

The Provincial Governor recalled Jin So-cheon from the past, who had abruptly held out his hand, demanding a reward. He chuckled.

At that time, he had never imagined that Jin So-cheon would become such a prominent figure.

But now, somehow……

‘Perhaps…… Haha.’

The vague thought that Jin So-cheon might truly become a legend known throughout the world turned into a conviction.

◈ ◈ ◈

Often……

People say that humans”never”change.

I agree with that too.

But that statement is”half”right and”half”wrong.

Why?

Because while humans generally don’t change……

……there are always those who do.

Perhaps I am the foremost”authority”or”researcher”on this proposition.

It’s deeply connected to my past life. When I was the leader of the Assassin’s Guild in my previous life, I actually had a history of changing many people.

Of course, truly changing a person requires tremendous effort.

Not only must the subject of change possess remarkable perseverance, determination, and resolve, but the virtues of the leader who guides them are also crucial.

In that sense, Yeon-u is”lucky.”

Because Yeon-u’s innate nature is one of perseverance, and my ability to guide him is truly the best in the world.

Therefore……

That’s how I changed Yeon-u.

As a guest of the Dawn Heaven Sect, undergoing the”Asura-Naga Training,”Yeon-u cultivated the”mindset”of a martial artist, and through various adventures with me, he also acquired the”heart”of a martial artist.

And……

“We’re almost at the Martial Alliance Headquarters, older brother.”

During the past month or so……

“You’ve worked hard on the way here.”

Yeon-u transformed into a”real man”with an indomitable spirit, like an unyielding iron fortress that wouldn’t waver even in a raging typhoon.

“Older brother is the one who worked hard.”

A faint air of composure settled on Yeon-u’s face.

I……

……know what that expression means.

Yeon-u is probably itching to fight the disciples of the prestigious sects right now.

That’s how much Yeon-u’s training has been a”true h*ll,”a pain that can’t be described simply as excruciating.

‘It’s all thanks to me.’

At first……

Since most of the martial arts Yeon-u had learned were from the Mount Hua Sect, I had pondered how to develop him.

But I soon found the answer, and that answer lay in pushing Yeon-u’s physical abilities to the”limit.”

“That’s right. I’m the one who did all the hard work.”

“……”

“But well…… You also worked hard, so.”

“Thank you for acknowledging that?”

“That doesn’t sound like you’re grateful.”

“No, it is. Thank. You. Are you satisfied now?”

“If you know, then act accordingly.”

“What do you mean?”

“I’m saying don’t get beaten up by just anyone in the tournament.”

At my words, Yeon-u……

……radiated blazing eyes and spoke in a serious tone.

“You don’t have to worry about that.”

“……”

“I’m not an easy target anymore.”

Yes.

I’ll admit that……

……something feels off.

“Go s*it in your pants.”

“What?”

Pak━.

“Ah! You’re hitting me again!!”

I smacked the back of his head and chuckled.

“Don’t get cocky.”

“Always nagging, hitting, cursing, looking down on me, despising me…… Ugh!”

“Enough.”

“……”

“Let’s go, to the Martial Alliance.”

I patted Yeon-u’s shoulder and was about to move on.

Or so I thought……

“Alright! In this tournament, we will uphold the pride of the Shaanxi Province martial artists!!”

Yeon-u started acting up, showing off his nauseating gaze, voice, and spirit.

“……”

For a moment……

The surrounding martial artists, who clearly seemed to have arrived in Chengdu to participate in the tournament, glanced in our direction.

Ashamed, I didn’t even look back and ran, leaving Yeon-u behind.

“Older brother! Older brother So-cheon! So-yun’s dad, older brother Jin So-cheooooon! Let’s go together!”

Yeon-u clung to me like a leech, calling my name.

‘Did I train him too hard?’

I think Yeon-u……

……has gone crazy.
