Chapter 28

Episode 28Reason for Fight (3)

The atmosphere in the restaurant became cold.

Chu Seong’s face was truly distorted in a cruel way. Namgoonghyeon, who was sitting at the end of the restaurant drinking tea, also had his face frozen.

Yeon Ji-pyeong swallowed his saliva.

“Brother tongue.”

“why? “Aren’t you hungry?”

“…It’s not that.”

“If you’re not going to eat it, I’ll eat it all? “I’ve been practicing since dawn, and it feels like the skin on my stomach is sticking to my back.”

thud!

The ground shook.

Everyone’s eyes except Yeon Ho-jeong turned to Chu-seong.

“What did you say just now?”

Yeon Ho-jeong glanced at Chu-seong.

Those eyes were truly strange. Instead of looking at people, I was indifferent, as if I was looking at a passing animal or an insignificant scenery.

Yeon Ho-jeong, who was watching Chu-seong, started chewing meat again.

It was complete disregard. Chu Seong’s face turned red.

“I asked you what you said!!”

“It’s noisy.”

Yeon Ho-jeong picked his ears.

“After all, an animal is an animal. “I can’t understand what people are saying.”

Pour oil into a burning fire.

“How dare you!”

It was then.

“Stop it.”

Namgoonghyeon, who was sitting far away, approached.

Chu-seong did not look at Namgung-hyeon. My anger rose to the top of my head. It seemed like he wanted to pull out his sword right now.

In fact, he was clenching and opening his hands repeatedly. He was really ready to draw his sword.

Namgoong Hyun added strength to his voice.

“Chu Danju!”

“….”

“Stay back.”

Chu-seong, who was gritting his teeth, turned around. The gesture was so rough that the hem of his clothes fluttered.

Namgung-hyeon, who inwardly sighed with relief, spoke in a voice like frost.

“What are we going to do?”

Yeon Ho-jeong tilted his head.

“Are you talking to me?”

“Then I am speaking to you, to whom am I speaking?”

“What did I do that you said that?”

“Do you think the family will be fine with the act of insulting a guard captain from another family?”

Yeon Ho-jeong chuckled.

“When did I insult your guard captain?”

“what?”

“I understand you never said who it was?”

“That’s petty. No pun intended. Anyone who has seen this situation…”

“Okay, well said.”

Yeon Ho-jeong’s face became serious.

“Even though you were watching this situation, why didn’t you come out sooner? “Are you leisurely drinking tea after seeing all of my temper tantrums yesterday?”

“What?”

“If you have something to say, come out and say it yourself. “Don’t just look around with the old guard captain in front of you.”

“What kind of nonsense?!”

“I’m telling you not to be petty. What is it that is so regrettable about a man who is as good as a scholar from the Namgung family that he can’t even tell me to go out? “Are you really scared of me?”

“Illusion is also a common mistake. Driving people like that…”

Yeon Ho-jeong waved his hand.

Not listening to the other person until the end. If you’ve heard it anyway, it’s probably obvious.

If it’s obvious that you’re going to say something that will hit a nerve, just say what you have to say comfortably.

“I know very well that you don’t have any good feelings towards me. Then, like a military man, you can confidently ask for a meeting or ask to have a drink. If you’re going to play a trick, you better not let it show.”

“It’s a sight to behold. Why did I…”

“No? “You must have been thinking about it because of your sister, right?”

Namgoonghyun’s expression suddenly changed.

You brought up the story of Namgung Sanghwa when everyone was watching? This was dangerous.

When Namgung-hyeon hurriedly opened his mouth, Yeon Ho-jeong’s words were already pouring out.

“You may have a twisted personality, it may be your nature, but if you have learned the laws of that prestigious family, you should not cross the line. “Looking at you and your younger sister, I feel like the name Namgung is a waste.”

Namgoonghyun’s face became grim.

“Are you insulting your family now?”

“If you don’t want to listen to animals, you need to listen to people properly. The fact that the name Namgung is a waste means that you or your sister were not worthy of the Namgung family. “Is this level of nonsense uninterpretable?”

“this…!”

“and.”

A faint light appeared in Yeon Ho-jeong’s eyes.

At that moment, Namgoonghyun’s body flinched. For a moment, it seemed as if a flash of light passed through my eyeballs and into the back of my head.

“Right now, here you are, using yesterday’s incident, which was concluded, as an excuse to insult my family through me and my younger brother. “Is there any reason why I shouldn’t insult you?”

“What an insult!”

Yeon Ho-jeong smiled.

“Wasn’t it an insult? “So you’re saying you didn’t order the guard captain to do this?”

“Of course not!”

“If you do that, I won’t have anything to say even if I take action against your guard captain who insulted my family.”

It was nonsense.

But Yeon Ho-jeong made that nonsense into something that made sense.

“If it wasn’t something you asked me to do, your guard captain would have gone out on his own and insulted another family. “As the eldest son of a family that has been insulted, shouldn’t I resolve this resentment?”

“That’s absurd! Danju Chu was simply exercising his authority for the sake of the meeting, not insulting anyone…!”

“I told you not to be petty to me, right? I hope you don’t do that too. “Everyone in this restaurant saw the overbearing attitude of your proud guard captain.”

Namgoonghyeon looked around without even realizing it. Sёarch* The nôᴠel Fire.nёt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Young men and women standing here and there were looking at this place. Some people were anxious and some were interested.

What is important is that they are all members of the Seven Great Families.

Namgoonghyun gritted his teeth.

‘Shit!’

He simply wanted to freshen up the mood for the second day of the banquet.

It was he who had Chuseong drive away Yeon Ho-jeong. However, there was no real intention to drive out the Yeon brothers. Even though the family is small, Yeonga is also a member of the Seven Great Families.

I just planned to step forward at the right moment and clear up this incident in front of everyone. He intended to not only build up his own prestige but also discourage his opponents, and further catch Yeon Ho-jeong off guard.

And at a critical moment, he planned to reduce the opponent’s face and announce Namgung’s power.

But what is this? Those in the left who were supposed to create a situation that was advantageous to them were instead becoming the strength of the other party.

“If you really don’t like that, you can scold the guard captain yourself instead of me.”

“What?!”

“Whether authorized or not, your guard crossed the line. “As the nobleman of the family, shouldn’t I be severely scolded?”

“…!!”

“Choose.”

Namgoong Hyun was originally a cold-hearted person.

But he had never encountered such a reckless situation. In fact, this was a minor dispute that could hardly be called an incident.

However, the other party put the burden of family honor on this trivial dispute. No matter how smart Namgoong Hyun was, he couldn’t help but be embarrassed.

It was then.

“It’s enough if I take responsibility.”

Namgung-hyeon looked back at Chu-seong.

Chu Seong’s eyes were burning like fire.

“Anyway, this happened because of me, so shouldn’t I handle it on my own terms? There is no need for Confucius to worry about it.”

The color drained from Namgoonghyeon’s face.

‘Holy shit!’

It was the worst.

Chu-seong should not have acted like this. Rather, I should have said things like, “Don’t be deceived by the other person’s words, and I am not guilty.”

But he says he will take responsibility. Those words were no different from admitting that it was true that he had insulted Yeonga.

Yeon Ho-jeong grinned.

It was a truly pleasant smile that revealed all of her white teeth.

“Unlike my master, you know how to take responsibility. “I like that one.”

Ugh.

Chu Seong took a step forward.

Although it was not emitting internal energy, an unusual prayer was spreading.

“So, how do you intend to hold this Chu Seong accountable?”

“Is there anything remarkable about the way the martial people resolve conflicts?”

“Are you saying we should at least have a handjob?”

“Wouldn’t that be neat?”

From Chuseong’s perspective, it was a truly absurd situation.

Even though he was the eldest son of the Seven Great Generations, he was still a young man under the age of twenty. On the contrary, he was a first-class person who had experienced the life and death of Gangho for over fifteen years.

Do you want to dance with yourself like that? I didn’t understand the other person’s confidence.

Was it so absurd? Chu Seong said in a sarcastic tone.

“Yes, seeing you fight with the three princes of the famous family, it seems that you are truly skilled in box fighting. Now, how about giving this Chu-seong a harsh lesson in front of everyone?”

While it was a joke, it was also an opportunity to publicize the greatness of the Namgung family. Chu-seong really wanted to thoroughly defeat Yeon Ho-jeong in front of the Later Jisoos.

So what about Yeonhojeong?

‘What kind of rice cake is this?’

Yeon Ho-jeong smiled broadly without realizing it.

I already wanted to start a fight, but you said something like that? I almost wanted to forget everything that happened a moment ago.

“Really? “I guess that would be good, right?”

It seems like people who are supposed to cringe like it too much.

For a moment, Chu-seong wondered if the other person was planning something. No matter how much he thought about it, the chances of Yeon Ho-jeong beating him were less than 100%.

Yeon Ho-jeong jumped up from his seat.

“Because there is such a thing as a friendly match. “Wouldn’t it be meaningful to hold you accountable and then show off your skills with the late Jisoo?”

Chu-seong said without even realizing it! He burst out laughing.

“Do whatever you like.”

“Good, very good.”

Yeon Ho-jeong’s eyes shone sinisterly.

At this moment, his eyes were looking at Myeong Ho-rim, not Chu-seong.

“Let’s have some fun.”

* * *

“What?!”

Zhuge Yan opened his mouth wide.

“Chuseong? Could it be that the brain-hyeop Chuseong who was inaugurated not long ago as the head of the Namgung family?!”

“…yes.”

Zhuge Zhenyan touched his forehead without realizing it.

“Holy shit! “What should I do with someone like that?!”

Brain Hyeop Chuseong.

Chu Seong was a mid-level expert who enjoyed considerable fame in Hanam and Anhui.

Characterized by his fiery temperament and violent swordsmanship, he was famous for single-handedly subduing 30% of the bandits in Hanam and Anhui over a period of 15 years.

Among the bandits, most of them were skilled in martial arts. Although most of them were from Heukdo, there were also many large bandit gangs numbering in the hundreds.

In other words, he was not a person capable of mastering martial arts at the level of the late Jisoo. A late-rounder is someone who is exceptional among his or her peers. Sometimes, a genius of the century emerges, but fighting a real prosecutor who has experienced countless battles is a risky task for anyone.

Could it be that the Namgung family placed Chu Seong in the position of lord for no reason?

“We have to stop it! No matter how excellent Gojeong’s martial arts skills are, this is not the case!”

“That…”

Yeon Ji-pyeong sighed.

“Preparations are already underway at the outer training hall. “It’s a deal that will start later.”

“Huh!”

Zhuge Zhenyan made a sound out of breath.

“But that doesn’t work! Chu-seong is a person who is known to have as strong a hand as a martial artist! “I’m not the type to pay attention to what people think!”

“I can not help it. “If I step down from here, my brother’s reputation will be ruined even before my family.”

Zhuge Zinc was astonished.

“No, but Pyeong, why are you so aloof? Did you throw it all away? Have you been liberated?”

Yeon Ji-pyeong sighed.

“Is that possible? I’m worried too. I tried to stop him several times. But…”

“But?”

“As much as I’m worried, I trust you.”

“…!”

“Up until now, the older brother I have seen has always done what he can take responsibility for, even if it may seem a bit extreme to others. “As a blood relative, I am worried, but I believe you have thoughts.”

Zhuge Zhen’s eyes wavered.

You believe in your brother? No matter how much you trust your brother, isn’t this a bit much?

These are truly strange brothers. Are you worried but believe it? It was not an ordinary person’s accident.

‘Brothers are brothers.’

But Yeon Ji-pyeong’s eyes did not waver. I wasn’t anxious.

It was clear that he trusted his brother’s judgment as well as his abilities.

“You guys really are a difficult problem in many ways.”

“yes?”

“it’s okay! Let’s go to the training ground quickly! Jun! You too, come out quickly!”
