Chapter 277: Within the Sword Creek (3)
Dark night…

There was a place where the entire area was surrounded by giant rocks. There was opening on the top, so it was only visible from high up. And within the place, there was a large mansion. Inside the mansion’s building, there were a whole bunch of pots brewing medicines and the storage of various medicinal herbs. It looked like a hospital of some kind from the first glimpse.

This place was the hideout of the Godly Doctor located within the large rock of the Sword Creek. Inside, there were many beds with one man getting treated above it. The man was the Fourth Elder of Demonic Cult, Yang Danwa. He moaned in pain.

“Ugh!”

“Alright, alright. Man up, will you?”

There was an old woman holding on to Yang Danwa’s head so he wouldn’t move. She looked well over her sixties but she had a very well built body. Her thick arms reminded one of a heavily-built body like Ko Wanghur.

“Hah…”

There was the reason why Yang Danwa was such pain. It was because of the location of the wound. With the sword qi cutting down on him from the right forehead down to the bottom of his eyes, he had lost his sight. It was a wound he got while fighting the old man from the inn. He had lost an eye, but it was fortunate that he survived.

‘I would not have survived if it wasn’t for Master Mun.’

She was worthy to be one of the Six Swords. She looked innocent and harmless usually, but Yang Danwa saw her raging through her attacks. Most warriors would lose control and go on a rampage in such anger, but Mun Ku helped Yang Danwa effectively to attack the old man. It was why they were able to hold out until ‘he’ appeared.

‘It’s an amazing talent. Maybe we will have another woman warrior as powerful as Elder Yin in a few years.’

It was thanks to Mun Ku that they were alive. Yang Danwa valued this very highly.

“Ugh!”

Even if he tried to endure, the sewing on his face was hurt. And when it was almost over, he heard wailing coming from the opposite bed.

“Waaaah…. Prince…”

“…How can this be…”

There was a girl wailing with both hands on her face. It was Mun Ku. There was another woman, tall and large, hugging her. It was Hou Sangwha who was said to be missing. She was actually at the hideout of the Godly Doctor. Of course, there were others who were alive from the team.

“Nnnngh… Master!”

“…”

And there was Hu Bong, with linen wrapped all around his body, lying down on the bed with an exhausted expression. He was moaning and crying with Bakgi sitting next to him with a dumbfounded face. He was just mumbling the same words.

“I can’t believe this…”

He just kept on saying the same thing. Bakgi and Hou Sangwha began doing this after they heard that Chun Yeowun was caught in the explosion and fell off the cliff.

“Well, you folks are quite different from one another.”

The old woman glanced back at wailing and spoke. She was talking about Hou Sangwha and Bakgi, who didn’t talk much, compared to Mun Ku and Hu Bong who openly expressed their emotions.

“But that master of yours must have been a good master. Seeing that all of you are crying.”

“…”

Yang Danwa couldn’t say anything to that. He too felt miserable to think about the dead Chun Yeowun. He had to give his life for the sin of not being able to protect the Lord, but he had a job to do.

The old woman finished sewing up the wound and dabbed mashed herbs over the wound. Yang Danwa then asked the woman carefully.

“…Godly Doctor.”

The old woman was the Godly Doctor they had been searching for. She was the master of this hidden mansion, and Godly Doctor Gam Rosu. She raised her eyebrows and spoke.

“What did I tell you to call me by?”

“…Granny Gam.”

The old woman didn’t like to be called Godly Doctor surprisingly. Yang Danwa first thought maybe she had learned martial arts from her physics, but she didn’t know any martial arts. When Danwa became curious, Gam Rosu simply replied,

‘Well, you’re a doctor so you need to be in shape for long surgeries. Don’t you think?’

That was reasonable of course, although Gam Rosu seemed to be overly trained for that. Yang Danwa then asked again.

“Like I asked earlier… can I make a request to… UGH!”

Gam Rosu then pushed on the wound where she was dabbing the medicine. Her strength was powerful. Yang Danwa had to stop speaking because of the pain.

“Hah…”

Strangely, Gam Rosu kept on cutting them off from asking on the request ever since they met. She then glanced at the entrance of the room, toward the two warriors watching her. It seemed they were keeping their eyes on the doctor.

‘Is she concerned about them?’

Yang Danwa also realized her attitude wasn’t normal so he stopped his request. He didn’t realize at first because he was only thankful for being saved, but he now knew that something strange was going on within this mansion.

After patching up the wound and putting linen wrap over it, the Godly Doctor Gam Rosu got up from her seat. She spoke to Yang Danwa.

“Well, you will need at least 7 days of treatment. Get some rest now.”
