Park Bucheng suddenly woke up, gasping for air like a fish out of water. Damn it, he almost met his end in that dream. He sat up in bed, rubbing his temples; his hungover head felt as heavy as if it were filled with glue.
He vaguely remembered the dream from last night: Kim Jeong-soo's sinister smile, the shocking conspiracy recorded on the USB drive, hurried footsteps echoing in the corridor...
Wait! Footsteps?
Park Bucheng quickly glanced toward the door. The corridor was silent and empty.
Just a false alarm.
He threw off the covers and got out of bed, walking to the window. He pulled back the curtains, and blinding sunlight flooded the room. Damn it, that cursed hangover. Squinting, he looked out at the bustling streets of Seoul; the noise seemed to burrow into his brain, making him even more irritable. The dream from last night left him feeling restless, as if something was about to happen.
He went to the bathroom and splashed cold water on his face, feeling a bit more awake. In the mirror, he saw a pale face with stubble and dark circles under his eyes—a picture of despair. Park Bucheng, oh Park Bucheng, when did you become so paranoid? He chuckled self-deprecatingly and wiped away the droplets on the mirror, only to find that behind them, his eyes were filled with vigilance and unease.
The scene from last night's meeting at Taiji Gang Headquarters replayed in his mind. Li Zhenghao's shifty eyes, Kim Jeong-soo's feigned calmness... Damn it, those two definitely had something going on!
The more Park Bucheng thought about it, the more uneasy he felt. He had to uncover the truth behind the Qingfeng Plan and understand the roles Kim Jeong-soo and Li Zhenghao played in it. He returned to his room and took out the USB drive from his laptop bag, plugging it into his computer.
With a beep, the USB drive was successfully read. Park Bucheng took a deep breath and opened the files on it. Inside were records of a shocking conspiracy orchestrated by JK Group and Taiji Consortium—the Qingfeng Plan. This plan aimed to manipulate gangsters and political figures to control Taiji Nation's government and use it as America's strategic foothold in Asia. And Kim Jeong-soo was their pawn embedded within the gangsters, responsible for gathering intelligence and executing their plans.
After reading the documents, Park Bucheng's anger erupted like a volcano. Damn it, these bastards dared to treat Taiji Nation as a pawn! He had to stop their conspiracy!
But he was currently weak and needed to find a powerful ally. Li Zhenghao? That old fox was too cunning; who knew what schemes he had in mind? Suddenly, he thought of someone—Li Xuanwei, the reclusive martial arts master hidden away in the mountains; perhaps he could help him.
Without hesitation, Park Bucheng packed his things and left the hotel. Following the address left by Li Xuanwei, he asked around until he finally found his secluded cabin.
"Senior, I need your help!" Park Bucheng stated directly as he entered.
Li Xuanwei was sitting in the courtyard meditating when he heard Park Bucheng's voice. He slowly opened his eyes, stroked his beard, and looked at him calmly. "What is it?"
Park Bucheng recounted the details of the Qingfeng Plan and his suspicions to Li Xuanwei. He even explained how he had designed false intelligence to lure Jin Tai Hwan into a trap, detailing the transactions between Jin Tai Hwan and the Chaebol contacts.
After listening, Li Xuanwei fell silent for a moment. "So, you have evidence of Jin Tai Hwan colluding with the Chaebol?"
"Yes, senior," Park Bucheng replied confidently.
"Good, we will act tonight," a glint of determination flashed in Li Xuanwei's eyes.
As night fell, Seoul was shrouded in darkness. Park Bucheng and Li Xuanwei infiltrated the Taiji Gang Headquarters. According to their plan, Park Bucheng intentionally spread rumors that he had evidence of Jin Tai Hwan's embezzlement and arranged to meet him at an underground casino.
Jin Tai Hwan took the bait and nervously arrived at the casino, only to find Park Bucheng waiting for him. "Park Bucheng, what do you want from me?"
Park Bucheng sneered, "Jin Tai Hwan, you don't need to pretend anymore; your crimes have been exposed!"
Jin Tai Hwan's face changed dramatically. "You... what nonsense are you talking about?"
"Hmph! Do you think you can hide what you've done?" Park Bucheng pulled out the prepared evidence and threw it in front of Jin Tai Hwan. "Take a look for yourself!"
The evidence was irrefutable, and Jin Tai Hwan collapsed to the ground, knowing it was over for him.
At that moment, Li Zhenghao arrived with a group of men. "Park Bucheng, how dare you betray me!"
"Li Zhenghao, you are the real traitor!" Park Bucheng shouted fiercely. "You colluded with the Chaebol and sold out Taiji Nation; your crimes are unforgivable!"
Li Zhenghao's expression darkened as he realized that his deeds had been uncovered; he no longer pretended. "Kill him!"
The members of the gang surged forward, but Park Bucheng remained calm. His figure moved like a ghost, effortlessly weaving through the crowd as he executed the Graceful Wave Steps to perfection. At the same time, the sword energy of the Six Meridians Divine Sword shot from his fingertips, accurately striking the vital points of his enemies and rendering them unable to fight.
Li Zhenghao, seeing his subordinates overwhelmed, was filled with rage. He drew a handgun and aimed it at Park Bucheng. "Die!"
"Bang!" The gunshot rang out.
In a split second, Park Bucheng sidestepped, the bullet grazing his cheek and leaving a shallow wound. His eyes narrowed, and in an instant, he appeared before Li Zhenghao, delivering a swift chop to his neck. Li Zhenghao fell to the ground with a thud.
At that moment, a woman in a tight black outfit, her figure alluring, descended from above with twin blades in hand, charging at Park Bucheng. She was Sofia, an assassin sent by the Chaebol.
Sofia's knife skills were fierce and lethal, and for a moment, Park Bucheng found himself at a disadvantage. He fought while retreating, searching for an opportunity to counterattack. Suddenly, an idea struck him; he feigned weakness to lure Sofia closer.
Just as Sofia believed victory was assured, Park Bucheng unleashed a move called "Kang Long You Hui," sending a powerful gust of wind that knocked her back several steps. Before she could react, he closed in again and struck her vital point with the Six Meridians Divine Sword. Sofia was instantly immobilized.
"You..." Sofia looked at Park Bucheng in terror.
Park Bucheng sneered. "Now it's time to talk about who your master is."
At that moment, hurried footsteps echoed nearby.
Not good—someone was coming!
