Wu Jang-rak eventually had no choice but to accept Pung Nosan’s offer.
It would impolite for him to refuse the invitation of the Heavenly Silver Marketplace for no reason.
Above all, he had to build a good relationship with a clan like the Heavenly Silver Marketplace for them to receive some help when passing through the area.
After considering various factors, Wu Jang-rak decided to stay for a few days at the Heavenly Silver Marketplace.
Pyo-wol also followed Wu Jang-rak’s decision. Because the leader of the group was Wu Jang-rak. That’s how their trip to the Heavenly Silver Marketplace was decided.
When the party got closer to the Heavenly Silver Marketplace, the darker the expression on Mok Gahye and Shin Mugum’s faces became.
When the ship finally arrived at Enshi, Mo Gahye looked almost as if she was about to cry.
Now that they have finally entered the Heavenly Silver Marketplace, the only thing left for her to do was to become the concubine of the old man, Hwa Yucheon.
It’s already too late for her to change her mind.
“Ha!”
Mok Gahye, who was locked in the cabin, sighed.
Shin Mugum who was guarding her cabin also had a dark shadow cast on his face.
Thud!
The ship docked at Enshi’s wharf.
The moment Mok Gahye appeared on the deck, loud voices were heard.
“We sincerely welcome your arrival, Lady Mok!”
Dozens of men lined up at the dock.
They were warriors from the Heavenly Silver Marketplace.
The eyes of the people around the docks were all focused on Mok Gahye.
Mok Gahye could feel her face burning up. If she could, she wanted to hide somewhere, even if it was a mouse hole.
She felt a belated wave of regret.
She wished she could go back.
Mok Gahye took a deep breath and carefully descended from the ship.
Shim Mugum quietly followed behind her.
Everyone’s eyes were focused on them.
Seeing the back of Mok Gahye going down first, Pung Nosan smiled.
Mok Gahye had nowhere to escape.
She will become Hwa Yucheon’s concubine, and the sword that was passed down on her Family will become a stepping stone for them to soar higher.
‘I didn’t expect things would work out this smoothly.’
Pung Nosan looked back slowly.
He saw the appearance of Wu Jang-rak.
‘He must be a member of the Snow Cloud Villa.’
Yu Gi-cheon of the Snow Cloud Villa was a person who left a very big mark in the merchant world. Although Yu Gi-cheon had already retired, his son was still active in the merchant world.
It was clear that if they use this opportunity to strengthen their relationship with the Snow Cloud Villa, they would be of great help to the Heavenly Silver Marketplace.
This was the reason why he invited Wu Jang-rak and his party to the Heavenly Silver Marketplace, even though he committed disrespect.
And although he was a little reluctant to bring in the mercenaries hired by Wu Jang-rak to Heavenly Silver Marketplace, he was willing to tolerate and accommodate at least that much.
The important thing for now is to build a friendship with Wu Jang-rak. If he strengthened his relationship with Wu Jang-rak, his career as a party leader would be a success.
Pung Nosan’s attention was all focused on Wu Jang-rak. So he could not even pay attention to Pyo-wol and Soma, who were far away from the party.
No, he didn’t even know they existed.
This is because Pyo-wol and Soma have been confined to the cabin the moment Pung Nosan boarded the ship.
When Pyo-wol and Soma came out, Wu Jang-rak hurriedly approached them and said,
“I’m sorry. They invited us so earnestly that I could not refuse. It seems like the schedule will be delayed for a few more days.”‘
“I told you that I leave everything to you. I don’t care.”
“Thank you for your understanding.”
After Wu Jang-rak thanked him, he hurriedly got off the boat.
Pyo-wol and Soma deliberately moved with the mercenaries. This made the other people think that they were also hired mercenaries.
The Heavenly Silver Marketplace was not far from the dock.
People were amazed at the sheer size of Heavenly Silver Marketplace.
Dozens of pavilions could be seen above the high fences. It was not the size of a manor. It was as if a section of Chengdu had been removed and moved.
“This is amazing. I knew that Heavenly Silver Marketplace’s power was great, but I didn’t expect it to be like this.”
Wu Jang-rak admired the huge appearance of the Heavenly Silver marketplace.
The Snow Cloud Villa was also quite large, but it was shabby compared to the Heavenly Silver Marketplace in front of them.
In front of the main gate of Heavenly Silver Marketplace, a man in his early fifties was waiting for them.
Clear eyes and a clean impression created a neat atmosphere.
He looked around the visitors.
“Welcome. My name is Mae Bulgun. I am the steward of the Heavenly Silver Marketplace. Thank you for visiting our sect. You must be tired from the long journey, so please take this time to rest and attend the evening banquet.”
“Thank you for the invitation, Lord Mae!”
“No. I’m the one who’s grateful for your visit. Let us talk in detail at the dinner party. Everyone should take a break for now. We have an empty guest hall for all of you.”
“Okay. We will talk in the evening then.”
“At that time, the banquet will be hosted by the head of the main sect, and not me.”
“Okay.”
“I’ll see you then, Lord Wu!”
Mae Bulgun said his farewell to Wu Jang-rak.
He then approached Mok Gahye.
As he came closer, Mok Ga-hye flinched involuntarily.
‘I feel nervous.’
Mae Bulgun had a spotless clear eyes. However, as soon as she saw his eyes, Mok Gahye could feel goosebumps running all over her body.
“We have set up a separate residence for Lady Mok. You can rest there.”
“I want to be with them.”
“Pardon?”
Mae Bulgun blinked.
He didn’t expect Mok Gahye to say something like this.
He tried to smile and said,
“But the Lord directly instructed us serve and give special attention to Lady Mok. If it’s known that you’re staying in the guest house with the others, a lot of people will be shocked.”
“Why do I have to get special attention?”
“That–”
“I’m not a member of the Heavenly Silver Marketplace yet. I think it’s more natural for me to stay in the empty guest hall. Isn’t that right?”
“………”
Mae Bulgun’s complexion visibly hardened at Mok Gahye’s bold words. But since there were so many people were watching, he immediately loosened his expression and said,
“Haha! If that’s what Lady Mok wishes, then I will do so. Alright. I’ll arrange a residence for you in the guest hall. Feel free to stay there, but if you feel uncomfortable, please let us know. We will immediately arrange another place.”
“Thank you.”
Mok Gahye bowed her head.
For a moment, Mae Bulgun’s eyes seemed to looked down at her. But when Mok Gahye looked up again, his eyes had already returned to normal.
“Then I’ll see you later in the evening, Lady Mok.”
Mae Bulgun withdrew after saying his goodbye.
“Hoo!”
Mok Gahye sighed softly as he disappeared from her view.
She tried to pretend to be calm, but she was very nervous.
All of this was unfamiliar to Mok Gahye.
A huge manor with people concealing their thoughts. All of this made her feel more scared.
