Episode 129Baekdo Murim Alliance (4)
It took almost half an hour just to get from the outer castle to the entrance to the inner castle. If a master at the peak reaches his maximum speed without stopping, will it take just a fraction of the time?
Although it was not as wide as the outer castle, the inner castle was also spacious. As it is the middle ground of the Murim League, the layout of the buildings has become more strategic and splendid at the same time.
âThis is where we will stay.â
The place where Yeonga stayed in Naeseong was Pagungak (ç ´è»é£). The exteriors of the buildings looked particularly old-fashioned and solid.
Yeonwi said after unpacking.
âAbby will go straight to the Wusheng Hall. âPlease rest.â
âPlease be careful.â
âDonât cause an accident.â
âIâm not hitting it.â
Yeonwi glanced at Full Sang.
He was lingering outside the building. He looked quite anxious as he was twirling around with his back to his mouth and licking his lips.
Yeon Ho-jeong cleared his throat loudly.
âI will hold you tight.â
After hesitating for a moment, Yeonwi spoke.
âIf necessary, I may use force.â
This meant that if he went crazy and started a riot, he was to be suppressed immediately. Yeon Ho-jeong chuckled.
âIâm not that kind of person. Do not worry.â
âI get it. âIf you do that, I will trust you and come back.â
âyes.â
Yeonwi left Pagungak.
Yeon Ho-jeong, who was seeing Yeon Wi off, frowned and said.
âIâm going to turn. âWhy do you keep doing this so crazy?â
Full-sang approached quickly.
âLetâs drink alcohol. âI havenât been able to drink even a drop of alcohol for half a year.â
âItâs alcohol, but if you drink it, you drink itâ¦â
Yeon Ho-jeong looked the full table up and down.
âAnyway, things have changed a lot in half a year?â
Although he may be acting like a poor person, his prayers were completely different from when I saw him last summer.
âMy strength has skyrocketed.â
Even if you count it as a small number, it has increased three to four times since the last time I saw it.
It is truly an enormous amount of power. It is no exaggeration to say that he is a transcendent expert, considering his internal power is comparable to that of Mukbi.
Of course, only half of them could be used properly. This is because full enlightenment was lacking.
âDifferent body power. Did Yongdu Ark pass on some of his inner skills?â
That is highly likely. The energy that could not be controlled was very fierce, but it was refined to a high level. It was a power that could not be obtained through elixirs.
âItâs not just about improving your skills.â
Crucially, the thickness of the prayer uttered by Full Sang changed.
Although it was only half a year, every day must have been like hell. Yeon Ho-jeong suddenly felt a desire to win.
âOne round before drinking?â
Full-sang shouted.
âYou crazy guy! I ran out because I didnât want to practice, but what was holding me back? Set the table first!â
âDonât you think itâs too shameless when itâs not even your house?â
âGive me the drink! alcohol!â
âIf you give it a try.â
Gaeun-sang grabbed Yeon Ho-jeongâs fist and punched him in the face.
âOh no, I lost! I lost! Yeon Ho-jeong, this bastard is too strong! âI canât win!â
Full-sang lay down, grabbed his face, and rolled around.
Yeon Ho-jeong felt steam leaking out. I felt weak, not because I felt sorry for the other person, but because I felt like they were out of their minds.
âLetâs fucking go in.â
âHehehe.â
Full-sang went into the residence before Yeon-ho-jeong. I had absolutely no home of my own.
Mukbi, who was watching the scene from the side, said with a shocked face.
âThere are really a lot of amazing people in Gangho, right?â
âThat person is the highlight of all. âItâs hard to find a fool like that.â
âExcept for my family, everyone I know is abnormal.â
âI know. âYouâre not normal either, right?â
âWhat am I!â
âOkay, do you want to have a drink too?â
Mukbi shook his head as if he was disgusted.
âYou want me to deal with that horrible hangover? Iâm done. âI want to rest.â
âYou can just drink it in moderation.â
âItâs okay.â
âI get it. âRest.â
âSee you later.â
âDonât forget to wash before you rest.â
âItâs much cleaner than you!â
Mukbi wheezed and entered his quarters.
Yeon Ho-jeong grinned. He also has a taste for teasing.
After a while, a small drinking table was set up at Yeon Ho-jeongâs residence. It was thanks to the inmates and servants of Chilseonggak (䏿é£), which was now the residence of the Sixth Generation rather than the Seven Generations, that they carried the drinking table into the room.
âHere, take a drinkâ¦â
I tried to fill his glass, but he suddenly picked up the bottle and took a gulp.
âNabalâ¦?â
Itâs a pretty strong drink, isnât it? Wouldnât that hurt my stomach?
Well, it seemed like a monstrous stomach that had digested twelve pounds of pork could easily handle it. Yeon Ho-jeong grumbled and filled his glass.
âHave you always liked drinking that much?â
âOoh! âIs there a beggar in the world who doesnât like alcohol?â
âStill, itâs a bit harsh.â
âThatâs it. âWow, I drank a bottle and I got really drunk.â
Full-sang buried his back in the chair. My neck was slowly turning red. It was clear that he had forcibly suppressed his inner energy.
Yeon Ho-jeong smiled.
âStill, you seem to be doing well.â
âWhat if I have a healthy body? âMy mind hurts.â
âThatâs right. âYou werenât this crazy beggar, were you?â
ââ¦.â
âWhy are you doing that?â
âYouâve changed quite a bit since I havenât seen you, huh?â
âexactly?â
âIn the past, you used to stab me with a knife, but now you smile and slap me.â
âI understand that means itâs better now.â
âBoth are bad!â
Full-sang grumbled.
âAnyway, you seem to be healthy too. âYouâve done a lot of dangerous things, right?â
âhmm?â
âI caught Myeong Heo-rim, George Mo Yong-yeon, stabbed the assassins, and harpooned the Zhejiang trader. What else was there?â
âAs expected, you knew everything, right?â
âIsnât it obvious? Why did I give you the Ojeongpae? âMy kids used it well.â
âThanks to you, it makes things quite easy.â
Full Sangâs face became serious.
âLetâs talk about the past.â
After making such a fuss about having drinks, it seems like he ended up having a lot to talk about with Yeon Ho-jeong.
âFirst of all, there is something I want to ask you.â
âPlease speak.â
âAre you the Anhui blood palace that came with you?â
In most cases, it would be better not to hide the truth from Geung-sang.
âItâs not Anhui Blood Palace. However, it does belong to Gwanilgok.â
âPlease explain in detail.â
Yeon Ho-jeong spoke about Baekhyangâs past without exception. What kind of group is Gwanilgok and how did the name Anhui Blood Palace come to be known to the world?
Full-sangâs eyes widened.
âA murderous religion? Indeed, there are still quite a few mysterious sects in Gangho that we donât know about.â
âI heard itâs closer to a religion than a sect.â
âso? To stop them, you borrowed a sword called Namgung Sega and cut down a place called Gwanilgok?â
âexactly.â
Full-sang stuck out his tongue.
âHow many lives? âOh my god, if you were caught doing something like that against the Namgung family, you would be in big trouble!â
âYou didnât get caught.â
ââ¦I have nothing to say since you say that.â
âAnd I didnât lie. Anhui Blood Palace is someone from the Yesin Joint Battle that took place five years ago. Geumgeommun was caught up in that strange battle of life and death and went extinct.â
âTsk.â
âIn the end, it was a good thing for the Namgung family. âBecause we captured the Anhui blood palace.â
Full-sang nodded.
âAnyway, the question has been resolved. âIt was an archer from Gwanilgok who killed the kids in that branch.â
âI am sorry. But I couldnât give up on that guy.â
âItâs okay. You canât turn the arrow of resentment towards someone just because they were members of the same organization. âBesides, the wife said she killed the criminal herself, so Iâm thankful and sorry.â
At times like this, it was clear that Full Sang was no ordinary person. Even though Eunwon had a warmer heart than anyone else, it was never easy to completely hide it.
âWell, that part was the hardest part. âIf thatâs the case, I completely understand.â SÑará´h the NôvelFire.nÑt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
Only then did Full Sang pour alcohol into his glass.
âWhat happened to the sprinkler? âI told the kids to investigate separately, but I couldnât tell where they came from.â
âI donât know either. âI think they are probably assassins active in Hubei, but I canât be certain.â
âHubei? âHow did you know?â
âI just got a feeling. âItâs too late to investigate now anyway, so itâs meaningless.â
âThatâs true, butâ¦â
After emptying his glass, Full Sangâs eyes flashed.
âIs it Moyongse?â
âI think it is the most likely. âIâm just not sure.â
âI guess so. âHeâs got such a shitty personality, so I guess heâll have at least one enemy?â
âIt breaks the head.â
âI am not the enemy. âDonât misunderstand.â
The two people giggled and laughed. Even though we were talking about serious things, there was a lot of leisure.
But even for a moment.
âSpeaking of Mo Yong-se.â
âPlease speak.â
Full Sangâs face became serious. He wasnât the beggar who was begging for drinks just a moment ago.
âPlease tell Lord Yeonga to be careful of the Mo Yong family.â
âWhatâs new?â
âIt is said that some of the masters of the famous family who were imprisoned in the Murimmaeng Prison have disappeared.â
Yeon Ho-jeongâs eyes sparkled.
âIâm not sure, but it seems like a few of them were taken out of the nine factions and the six generations.â
âAs allies?â
âI guess so.â
Yeon Ho-jeong nodded.
âIt would be good if you have the capacity.â
Full Sang frowned.
âAre you saying that now? Regardless of the reason, all members of the Nine Masters Family deserve to be imprisoned and punished according to the law. Even if you are a pillar of the White Path, secretly stealing a criminal is a serious crime.â
âYes, it is a serious crime, but who will report the crime?â
ââ¦.â
âBesides, the current Murim Alliance is temporary. Looking at the atmosphere, it looks like the Murim Alliance will be rebuilt, but if they push it forward without any evidence, they will be the only ones suffering.â
Full Sang sighed deeply.
âItâs because Iâm frustrated too. No matter how greedy I am for talent, I secretly steal it without going through the necessary proceduresâ¦â
âHuman greed transcends law and order. This is why there is no perfect law in the world. âEven if thousands of years pass, the law will continue to change.â
âHuh.â
âAnd thanks to you, I also benefited a bit.â
âhuh? benefit?â
Yeon Ho-jeong said as he filled his glass again.
âThe day we were attacked by the assassins, there was also an attack by a pretty strong expert.â
âGosura? If a practitioner can say thatâ¦.â
âHe uses the four-point sword technique of the Jeomchang school.â
ââ¦!!â
Full-sangâs eyes widened.
âIs that really true?â
âReally. âIt was easy to catch him because he was silent, but considering my martial arts skills at the time, it may have been difficult to gain the upper hand in a head-to-head match.â
ââ¦!â
âAge: late thirties to early forties. He had a strong smell of blood. Probably too many people to countâ¦â
âDream.â
âhmm?â
thud!
Full-sang slammed the table.
âIt must be a dream. A great disciple of Jang Mun-in of the Jeomchang sect and a person who acquired the Four-Il Sword Technique, which was said to have been lost. âHe is the one who killed Jang Mun-in of the previous generation and disappeared.â
The two people looked at each other.
Yeon Ho-jeong opened his mouth.
âAre you from a famous family?â
âIâm not sure, but thatâs what we think in this room.â
âHmm, your mouth is really heavy. âIâm still locked up in my hometownâs prison.â
Full-sangâs eyes became cold.
âThen, if we trace who took Meng Yi, we will also be able to find out the criminal who tried to kill the practitioner.â
âI guess so.â
âLetâs find out right away starting todayâ¦â
âThatâs enough.â
âUgh?â
Yeon Ho-jeong chuckled.
âIf Prince Moyong was the one who sent the dream, he would have erased all traces. âIf you keep hurting unnecessarily, youâll only make Moyong more nervous.â
âIt might not be Mr. Moyong, right? âWhat are you going to do if itâs a new enemy?â
âLetâs go and think about it then. By any chance? âI wonder if thereâs somewhere else I can use it.â
Full-sang pounded his chest.
âI still havenât gotten rid of my outgoing temperament. This guy! Prince Moyong recently acquired another powerful treasured sword! Itâs like having wings on a tigerâs back? âAt least we have to make it so they canât move carelessly!â
âwing?â
âMo Yong-woo! Mo Yong-segaâs hidden genius! Even the monster who was the head of the Zhejiang branch came under Mo Yongâs command!â
âIs that so?â
âYou donât know Mo Yong-woo, right? That guy is a genius among geniuses that the world doesnât know about. Itâs as if Moyong-gun has become two! Of course, considering its natureâ¦.â
ââ¦.â
ââ¦What? know?â
âI want to ask. Didnât you know? âWork was easy thanks to the head of your Hangju branch?â
âI didnât hear that story? Are you really joining hands with Mo Yong-woo?â
Yeon Ho-jeong sighed in relief and buried his back in the chair.
âYou donât have to worry from now on.â
