Chapter 104

Episode 104Change of idea (4)

Paaang!

Yeon Ho-jeong, who had exhausted all his strength with the last blow, collapsed to the ground.

“Whoa.”

It’s been a long time since I’ve practiced just the beats all day for several days.

Box fighting techniques performed with the bare body are essential training even if you are not a martial arts expert. At a small scale, it is good for physical training, and at a large scale, it is good for improving reaction speed and senses.

However, Yeonhojeong’s persecution went beyond that level.

A skill that does not significantly lag in power even without lifting an axe. It is no exaggeration to say that he created a family through martial arts alone.

Yeon Ho-jeong, leaning against a small rock, let go of his inner energy naturally.

Wooooow.

As I inhaled, the white tiger rose spontaneously. Baekhogi drew in more air and natural energy and spread it throughout the body.

As blood flow speeds up, the heart’s main mechanism becomes more active. As a certain amount of turbid Qi was collected due to the rapidly circulating blood, the Xianmu Qi of the kidneys surged and expelled all the turbid Qi.

Wooooow.

As Samsingi quickly recovered his body, Byeoknajingi naturally stood up and gained strength.

“Let’s end today’s training with this.”

After returning to the family, not a single moment was wasted. It was a process of looking back on past martial arts skills and at the same time constantly checking the way forward.

Fortunately, he did not have the same talent as Yeon Ji-pyeong, but he had his own path that was honed through the chaos.

This was the reason why I was able to become this strong in a short moment.

“Now, slowly…”

Yeon Ho-jeong’s eyes lit up.

“You have to choose.”

After returning, his goals were largely divided into two.

Preventing the extinction of the first family.

Second, prepare for the invasion of the Central Plains by the Three Religions of Gwangsin.

The extinction of the family was prevented immediately. Although the Moyong family remains, Moyonggun will not go to extreme lengths to attack Yeonga. In other words, there is enough time.

So what about the Gwangshinsamgyo?

He also has time. However, unlike the fact that the family’s enemy was clear and they were able to strike first, preparing for the invasion of the Three Religions of Guangshin was too broad and vague.

Yeon Ho-jeong did not know detailed information about them. All I knew was that they had a base somewhere outside the country, and that their power was unprecedentedly strong.

Complete preparation is difficult with limited information. If so, just do everything you can to prepare.

‘It’s just that I’m worried.’

There is only one reason to prevent their invasion. Because my people are in danger.

But they weren’t the only ones in danger.

‘Moyong-gun.’

Unlike Prince Moyong, who became the Murim lord, the current Prince Moyong was like the embodiment of greed.

It was the difference between those who got everything and those who wanted to get everything. Mo Yong-gun will commit any vicious act to become the top of the midfield.

And he will definitely try to take annual leave as soon as possible.

To be exact, he will try to hit himself.

“Moyongga’s control and contrast between the three religions. You can’t choose just one or the other. “It has to be done at the same time.”

So what I thought of was Mo Yong-woo.

If it had not been for Muk Fei in the first place, he would have headed straight to Zhejiang after catching Ming Heo-lin.

‘It is clear that Moyong is the one who encouraged Namgung. ‘You probably expected me and Namgung to clash.’

He would have hoped for even the slightest conflict to arise. Their relationship was not good to begin with, and she knew that Yeon Ho-jeong would not treat Namgung kindly due to her personality.

However, thanks to his silence, he was able to turn Namgung’s attention away. So to speak, it is a situation where one kills two birds with one stone.

It’s the same this time too.

“Killing two birds with one stone… We need to create a political ally so that we can establish an opponent named Mo Yong-woo to keep Mo Yong-gun in check and at the same time take control of the Murim Alliance.”

Something you can’t do alone. Even if it goes against morals, they will use everything around them to achieve results.

In a way, we need to become more toxic than during the time of the Dark Emperor.

Yeon Ho-jeong filed the complaint without even realizing it.

“One way or another, I am not destined to live an easy life.”

He got up, cleaned himself with a bath, and then headed to the head office.

“Your Majesty?”

“I came to see my father.”

It’s late at night, but I know you’re not sleeping.

The water gate inspector lowered his head.

“Please wait.”

After a while, the floodgate inspection committee spoke.

“I received a call. Please come in.”

“Good luck.”

Yeonhojeong, who was heading to the head office, changed direction. It was because he felt his father’s strong presence through sponsorship.

Soon, Yeon Ho-jeong, who entered the sponsorship training hall, saw two people moving quickly.

Shhh! Whoops!

“Huh!”

Yeon Ji-pyeong, who took a step back from the powerful sword, took a deep breath.

Yeonwi raised his sword with a middle finger.

“again.”

Wow!

Even though he was breathing very hard, his approach speed was fast.

Yeon Ho-jeong’s eyes deepened as he looked at Yeon Ji-pyeong, leaning against the wall.

‘You’ve crossed the limit.’

Blah blah blah!

Yeon Ji-pyeong’s arrest was quick.

I don’t have the skills to handle such a quick and intense sword attack. But we are actually solving it.

Yeon Ho-jeong looked into Yeon Ji-pyeong’s eyes.

Yeon Ji-pyeong’s eyes were blurry.

I’m half out of my mind. Both physical strength and endurance were at an all-time low. It wasn’t strange when I collapsed.

The herbivorous actions of the Iron Sword Demonstration unfold unconsciously. Sёarᴄh the Novёlƒire.n(e)t website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

No matter how genius you are, you cannot unconsciously implement a sword technique that you have just learned. Yeon Ji-pyeong’s sword was uncharacteristically fierce and ferocious.

Yeonwi, who had blocked dozens of sword strikes, suddenly stretched out his left hand.

Teuong!

Yeon Ji-pyeong flew far away and collapsed without even letting out a groan.

Slurp.

At the same time, Yeon Wi appeared behind Yeon Ji-pyeong and placed her hand on his chest.

Wooooow!

A cold and sharp energy flowed into Yeon Ji-pyeong’s body.

“Whoa.”

Yeon Ji-pyeong’s breathing returned to normal in an instant.

That wasn’t all. By stimulating all kinds of acupuncture points in the body, it dispels turbid energy, transfers trace amounts of internal energy, and stimulates the growth of internal energy with high-concentration sword-pointing techniques.

Yeon Ho-jeong’s face was filled with surprise.

‘Body power?!’

Energy has a tendency to follow the higher quality. The energy of Yeonwi that remains in Yeon Ji-pyeong’s body will heal the damaged blood vessels and at the same time, continuously lead Yeon Ji-pyeong’s energy to a higher level.

‘also.’

It’s an amazing skill.

Excessive physical power can damage the caster’s stamina. Yeonwi is maintaining a tight line and raising Yeonjipyeong’s level of endurance.

“Put in the lotus position.”

“Cough! yes? Ah yep!”

Yeon Ji-pyeong, who must have regained her senses, immediately sat cross-legged and used internal energy.

I quickly concentrated and went to breakfast. He had the concentration to not be surprised even if lightning struck next to him.

“Are you here?”

“yes.”

Only then did Yeonhojeong go up to the training ground.

Yeonwi asked.

“How did you see it?”

“yes?”

“This kind of practice.”

Yeon Ho-jeong commented honestly.

“I think we need to be more harsh.”

“okay?”

“Jipyeong will grow well on its own. However, I think that if you grow up with a moderately strong training, there may be confusion about your own training methods in the future.”

Yeonwi shook his head.

“Once again, I am surprised by your temperament. “I thought it was a tough enough practice.”

It’s so poisonous. Not only was it not enough to exhaust one’s stamina and internal energy to the bottom, it was usually not difficult to push him until he went out of his mind and then induce him to unconsciously unleash his sword.

“Unmanned academia can grow most explosively in the gap between life and death. There are clear limits to those who do not risk their lives. “No matter how great a talent is, a person who has not experienced the crossroads of life and death is only half-hearted.”

He laughs and says something horrifyingly cold.

Yeonwi looked at Yeonhojeong blankly.

“Is it because you risked your life to fight that you grew so much?”

“That’s right.”

To be more specific, it was like that during the time of the Dark Emperor. Because I couldn’t spend a single day of the year in peace and saw blood.

However, after becoming stronger, I was no longer obsessed with life or death.

Yeonwi shook his head.

“The horizon is not ready yet.”

“That is also true.”

The most important thing in a life-or-death situation is bold decisions and sharp living.

It’s a mindset that I will have to force myself to learn at some point, but at least not now.

“So, what brought you here?”

After a pause, Yeon Ho-jeong asked.

“The Murim Alliance will be founded soon, right?”

“Yes.”

“The main family is also a member of the six generations. “If you are the head of the nine families and the six great families, you will be at least appointed as an elder or Bonggong of the Murim Alliance.”

“I guess so. “If the Murim Alliance continues.”

Yeonwi shook his head.

“The Murim Alliance that is currently being created is temporary. “It has not yet been decided whether or not to focus Baekdo’s efforts.”

“After a meeting among the heads, we will call in several prominent scholars and representatives of small and medium-sized schools to make a decision.”

“I guess so.”

Right here.

Yeon Ho-jeong spoke bluntly.

“I hope your father will vote yes.”

Yeonwi’s eyes widened.

“agree?”

“That’s right.”

“I agree… I agree. Do you think the Murim Alliance is absolutely necessary?”

“I think it absolutely has to be there.”

“What is the reason?”

“This is because I think we need a decision-making body that can control not only the nine major factions and the six major clans, but also the numerous white factions.”

Yeonwi’s expression changed.

“Is it because of this famous family incident?”

“Not necessarily, but there is no reason why.”

“hmm.”

“And one more thing.”

“…?”

“I also believe that it is time for my father to spread his wings to the fullest, which he has never done before.”

“…Spread your wings?”

“That’s right.”

“You are saying such dangerous things. “What do you mean…?”

Yeon Ho-jeong spoke more seriously than ever.

“The position of leader must be left empty for someone worthy of it. However, we need wise men who will control the world together with the leader.”

“…!!”

“I don’t think there’s a single governor like my father.”

It was a surprising statement. Yeonwi had no idea that her son was even thinking like this.

He watched Yeon Ho-jeong with sharp eyes.

A certain determination and even tension could be seen on Yeon Ho-jeong’s face. However, there was no trace of greed in his clear, deep eyes.

‘…is there any greed?’

The son’s will was for the world. Although conquering the world sounds exciting, I hoped that I would not walk down a path full of blood and death.

Fortunately, my son did not show the temperament of an ambitious person who wanted to take over the world. At least that’s what it seemed like on the outside.

Yeonwi, who had been watching her son for a while, opened her mouth.

“I don’t want you to worry about that yet.”

“….”

“I’m telling you this in case you misunderstand. This father in no way disparages your abilities. Aside from your martial arts skills, the insight and response skills you showed while dealing with famous families were world-class.”

“It’s no big deal.”

“Nonsense. It is another talent that resides in a completely different realm from martial arts or military strategic intelligence. “I said it was talent, but in reality it was something unknown that couldn’t be expressed with the word talent.”

“….”

“You read the flow of a world you had never experienced, and with strong confidence in yourself, you faced the world alone and overcame it. “It is an ability that goes beyond the category of talent and is worthy of being called divine eyes.”

My father doesn’t know. That he has lived at odds with the world for decades.

He does not know himself as a dark emperor who fought to survive, not to win, and trained to kill, not to become strong.

That’s why people praise it and call it a talent, even using grand words like divine eyes.

“You are a genius in a different sense than Jipyeong. But your talent comes with risks.”

“Danger…”

“Yes, danger. “It is a talent that runs the risk of being exposed to demons that can corrupt even a Taoist monk or a monk who has devoted their entire life to cultivating it.”

Yeon Ho-jeong closed his eyes.

He could understand deeply what his father was going to say.

“Are you afraid that I will be swayed by my desires?”

A warm expression appeared on Yeonwi’s cold face.

“If you were thinking that far, you are truly amazing. “He is my son, but I don’t think he is a very energetic young man.”

“Are you hoping that I won’t be concerned about such things, lest I be swayed by greed?”

“No way. You will not stray.”

“How can you be so confident?”

“Because I believe it.”

“….”

“But I don’t want to see you getting tired already. You can call it the stubbornness of parents or the excessive worries of a generation that has become outdated.”

“….”

“Because I trust you, I don’t want to leave my son with a burden that I can carry.”

Yeon Ho-jeong opened his eyes.

He understood his father’s feelings. Also, after listening to my father’s words, I realized that I did not have enough time.

It was only after some time had passed that Yeon Ho-jeong, who had been lost in thought for a while, opened his mouth.

“Promise me one thing.”

“Say it.”

“Whenever you are in trouble, never try to solve it alone. Please call me.”

Yeonwi smiled.

“Isn’t that why I’m sending you to Zhejiang?”

“…Well, that’s true too.”

Yeon Ho-jeong scratched his head.

As the worry hanging over my chest disappeared, my shoulders felt lighter. He said with a cheerful face.

“No matter what anyone says, I will follow my own path. “Don’t regret listening to your son later.”

“When did I say I was ignoring your words?”

“yes?”

Yeonwi nodded.

“Let’s think deeply about voting in favor of the creation of the Murim Alliance.”

Considering the destructive power of the three fanatic religions, it is clear that even if we prepare now, it will not be enough.

But Yeon Ho-jeong thought it was okay.

Clothes that are worn loosely tend to wear out quickly. At least in this regard, he thought his father’s choice was better than his own.

It’s urgent, but it’s okay. Just as her father believed in her, Yeon Ho-jeong also believed in her father.

I believed that the wisdom of life that my father realized would apply.

“I guess I was just worried for no reason. Looking at things like this, I too have a long way to go. “I realized something big thanks to my father.”

“Is that so?”

“That’s right.”

“Then will this father tell me what he learned thanks to you?”

“yes?”

“As I felt your change, I realized that two roles as a parent are enough in this world.”

“What is?”

“Protecting my family and waiting forever.”

“….”

“You are big enough that I don’t have to protect you. “Then there is only one thing I have to do now.”

Yeonwi turned and approached Yeon Jipyeong and said.

“I will wait forever. “I will embrace anything. Whenever you are having a hard time, come to Abby.”
