Chapter 971: Regret (5)
The funeral was delayed, so Seong Guk-eon had the yukgaejang (spicy beef soup) prepared by Seong Guk-eon himself for breakfast.
After finishing their early breakfast, everyone sneaked out and left Seong Guk-eon’s house.
Before the sun had risen, a fair number of journalists were lingering around the house.
“Seong Guk-eon was very active yesterday, and there was a mysterious explosion at his house, so it’s worth investigating.”
It was better to keep the fact that Seongwoo’s body had become a target for dark spirits and spiritual energy a secret, so pretending that there had been no attack was the best option.
As more people become afraid of evil, their popularity rises, making it harder to deal with them, and the resentment toward the true descendants dealing with the spiritual energy would increase, placing the baron and the dragon in a disadvantageous position.
Moreover, the fact that the body of a hero like Seongwoo had fallen into the hands of the enemy, was only regained after decades of effort, and the fact that the congressman held a funeral at the Spirit Hall would not bode well if it became known.
However, the location of Seong Guk-eon’s house was well-known, and the destroyed house was filmed from above by a helicopter, revealing its destruction.
So this time, the fugitive was entrusted with everything.
The fugitive remotely summoned multiple pillars of flame from Oumsan and the village. It didn’t make sense that the fugitive targeted Seong Guk-eon’s house.
Jeon Mu-young shared this information with the journalists he knew, and soon enough, the article appeared.
The congressman had been dealing with the fugitive for a long time, but some of the bad people, who were upset that he was unharmed, were overjoyed at the sight of the destroyed house.
