Episode 282Shadow War (2)
âHmm, the scent is quite nice.â
âThank goodness.â
âBut for some reason I feel like drinking today.â
âThe sun rose in the sky. âI donât think itâs a good time to be drinking.â
Prince Mo Yong smiled at Zhuge Mun-hoâs polite refusal.
âThe days of drinking while counting the time are over, soldier.â
âIs that so?â
âYou donât seem to be very impressed. âItâs been a while since I came here to talk about something serious.â
Zhuge Wenhuâs eyes sparkled.
ââ¦I see. âIt would be very regrettable if I just served tea even though I had something important to discuss.â
âHehehe.â
âI happen to have a studying family that I received from Yeonga-ju. How about a drink with that?â
âVery good.â
After a while, a small drinking table was set up between the two.
âPlease take a drink.â
Moyongâs eyes widened as he took the drink and lightly moistened his lips.
âHey, I heard that the volume of gongjaju has decreased significantly this year, but it seems there was a reason for it all. âThe taste and aroma have become very smooth.â
âThatâs right. âItâs such a rare drink that I donât easily take it out unless Iâm a VIP.â
After drinking one drink, it meant that I should get to the point.
Mo Yong-gun smiled and filled Zhuge Mun-hoâs cup.
âMilitary.â
âPlease tell me, Lord Moyong.â
âArenât you acquainted with Dr. Tongcheonshin?â
Zhuge Wenhuâs eyes sparkled.
âItâs not like weâre friends, but weâve had tea a few times. âA person as great as Tong Tian Xin Yi will not easily interact with an uneducated bastard like me.â
âHehe, a long time ago, when Commander Yeon was on the brink of death due to a fight with a famous family, you called Tongcheonshinui and helped him heal, right?â
âOf course I did. However, at that time, he came not at my request, but at the request of my daughter.â
âIn any case, it is clear that there is some level of connection between your family and Tong Tianxin.â
âIf that is also a fate, it can definitely be a precious one.â
I didnât know what the other person would say, so there was no need to give a hasty answer. Zhuge Wenhu took a cautious approach.
Mo Yong nodded his head.
âAs you know, Tongcheonshinui is famous for his eccentric temperament, but his skills are enough to be considered the best in the central region.â
âYou are a great person.â
âBut heâs also a congressman. âI donât know where he learned medicine in the past, but if his medical skills were apostolic, he would have been buried long ago.â
Zhuge Wenhu frowned.
âIt is an overgeneralization to disparage his abilities just because his temperament is eccentric.â
âI know. I believe that Tongcheonshinui continued the orthodox spirit of the Jungwon. âIf it werenât for that, no matter how much he was the most senior member of the medical world, he wouldnât have been able to continue his activities until now.â
âWhat do you want to say?â
Moyong-gun picked up the cloth that had been left under the chair and placed it on the table.
âWhat is this?â
âItâs a thousand years old. âThatâs as many as three roots.â
ââ¦?!â
âThere is a saying that Hagok is one of the top three in Hanam. âWhat he gave to this man as a bribe were three roots of Millennium ginseng.â
Zhuge Wenhuâs eyes became sharp.
Prince Moyong waved his hand.
âDonât misunderstand. âIf I really wanted to take a bribe, would I have said it out loud in front of the military?â
âWhat does it mean?â
âDo you know about the organization called Uisinhoe?â
âUisinhoe?â
Mo Yong nodded his head.
âLet me explain.â
He briefly explained what he had heard from Hagok.
Zhuge Wenhu frowned.
âIt is a union of lawmakers who have continued the tradition of the Central Committee.â
âDidnât you dispatch the commanders of Tangma Murderous Temple to bring back the Western Goddess this time?â
âOf course I did.â
Zhuge Wenhu stroked his beard.
âEven without that, I felt uneasy. The skills of the Western Station Lady are certain. However, it seems that many of the members of the House of Representatives envy her and even harm her.â
âItâs not like harm was done.â
âokay. âIf what Lord Moyong said is true, those who called themselves heirs to the central government systematically mistreated her.â
âThatâs right. They even maintain a close relationship with government officials.â
Zhuge Wenhuâs eyes became sharp.
âHas this been confirmed?â
Moyong-gun smiled.
âWhat do you think of this person?â
ââ¦.â
âYou can be sure of that. Moreover, after listening to Hagokâs words, it seems that the Uisinhoe side approached the military commanders and committed a rather rude act.â
âwhat?!â
Prince Moyong did not briefly skip over this part.
Zhuge Wenhu heard his words and sighed.
âYou shake hands like that, but you shake hands like that.â
âThatâs right.â
âWell, I said this to Commander Yeon. If there are people who try to mess with even one thing, you should smash them to pieces and come back. I canât believe they would come forward and do something like this in an organized mannerâ¦.â
âThe military probably knows Commander Yeonâs personality. Commander Yeon will never forget what happened. Moreover, his abilities are more outstanding than anyone elseâs.â
âI will never let this go.â
âThatâs right. Of course, since the mission comes first, we will start work after bringing in the West Region priestess.â
Zhuge Wenhu sighed.
âWhy are you telling this person this?â
âBecause Iâm angry.â
âAre you angry?â
At that moment, murderousness emanated from Moyonggunâs eyes.
The life was so brutal that even Zhuge Liang had to flinch for a moment.
It is difficult to show this level of living unless it comes from the heart. Zhuge Wenhu realized that Mo Yong was truly angry.
âIf youâre a member of the National Assembly, you should only focus on fixing peopleâs bodies. How dare you try to muddy the waters by interfering with the Murim Leagueâs events.â
ââ¦.â
âThe Murim Alliance is the strongest organization of the time. No organization should challenge the authority of the Murim Alliance. Even if itâs a government official.â
âThis is a dangerous statement.â
âYou donât think so about the military?â seaÊá´h thÑ nôvel_Fire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
âOf course, I am also angry at the Uishinhoeâs actions. Actually, Iâm still dumbfounded because I didnât even know such an organization existed. However, I think that since we are the strongest organization in the midfield, we need to lower our heads and bow even more.â
âEven if you bend down, you should not hesitate when it comes time to draw your sword. âIsnât it because the military knows that thatâs why they sent Commander Yeon?â
It wasnât wrong.
However, the two people had different perspectives. Zhuge Liâs eyes were focused on prudent justice, and Mo Yongâs eyes were focused on the strong authority that could determine justice.
Since everyoneâs perspective was different, even if they were equally angry, they couldnât help but think of different ways to respond.
âMilitary. âI will talk openly about it here and now.â
Prince Mo Yong glared at Zhuge Wenhu with sparkling eyes.
âI donât like the military. I donât like the lightness of not trying to go beyond this despite having such good abilities. âI donât like both the timidity disguised as the virtue of prudence and the pursuit of shallow ideals that do not acknowledge the limits of reality.â
It was very harsh language. It was extremely rare for Mo Yong-gun to speak so harshly, whether in public or private settings.
âNevertheless, the reason I respect the military is not because I am afraid of you, nor is it to check the movements of the opposing faction.â
âHow can you respect me if you do that?â
âBecause I know that you, too, are needed by the Murim Alliance.â
Zhuge Wenhuâs eyes deepened.
Prince Moyong continued.
âSince we already know everything, letâs go a little deeper.â
âWhat do you mean?â
âI am a person who is greedy for power.â
ââ¦.â
âI want to obtain the greatest authority in the world, which no one, no matter how hard they try, would dare to reach my feet. I want to obtain overwhelming power that no one, whether the Thirteen Saints or the elders of each sect, can oppose me. âI have that ambition.â
âI know.â
âBut I could never achieve that level of strength on my own. âI need a lot of talented people.â
âAre you sure you want to appease this person?â
âFrom my perspective, you are someone who does not need to be appeased.â
ââ¦?!â
âNo matter who the leader is, as long as you are sure that the leader is not someone who can throw the world into chaos, he or she is someone who considers the safety of the peopleâs lives as his top priority. âAnd I want to become the best with the Murim Alliance, and I have no intention of killing all opposing factions.â
Zhuge Wenhoâs face hardened.
A blue lightning flashed in Mo Yongâs eyes. When I am truly angry, the brain energy that I had been trying to suppress is released spontaneously.
âDo you understand? The reason I keep you in check and sometimes stab you with a dagger or hit you with a club is because you are blocking my path. However, this means that if I become the leader, there will be no purges of opposing factions.â
ââ¦.â
âI am that kind of person. So I cherish my people. Likewise, the Murim Alliance that I want to acquire is a sacred organization that should not be looked down upon by any other organization.â
âhouse owner.â
âwhich!â
bang!
Mo Yong struck the table with his fist.
Bottles and glasses fell to the floor and scattered.
âLetâs talk about what applies to you too.â
ââ¦!â
âEven if you look at it from a different perspective, you should be angry too. reason? The reason is clear. âThose mediocre congressmen are daring to attack the best organization of Baekdo Murim just because they have obtained a small amount of power!â
ââ¦.â
âUnderstanding the feelings of the weak is certainly a virtue that a person in power must possess. However, if you are going to play politics by looking out for the weak, get down from that position immediately!â
Zhuge Wenhuâs eyes wavered.
Mo Yong-gunâs cheeks trembled as he glared at him with scary eyes.
âThose bastards dared to threaten my brother.â
ââ¦.â
âYeonhojeong, not that damn leech! âYou touched my precious little brother who came back to me after ten years!â
Jeeeeee!
An unusual brain energy erupted from Mo Yongâs body.
Although it was not spewing out external air with strong patience, it felt like watching a fire bomb about to explode. Thatâs how angry I was.
âI am willing to sacrifice even my own flesh and blood to gain power. However, all of those actions are also for the sake of everyone under my command who participated in my dream or fell under my tongue, but ultimately became one.â
ââ¦.â
âThe military commanders of the Murim Alliance have received threats. If this continues, I will not forgive you even if it means giving up my position as the next great leader.â
Moyong-gun stood up from his seat.
He took a moment to catch his breath and spoke coldly.
âI spoke to Hagog. Donât provoke Yeon Ho-jeong anymore. I gave them a firm scare that not only the Uisinhoe but also the roots of the government office would be uprooted. âDo you know why?â
ââ¦.â
âBecause they must fall by our hands.â
ââ¦.â
âI will definitely wait and see. âAre you truly qualified to be a soldier?â
bang!
Mo Yong closed the door and left.
