Episode 230 One step towards a new world (2)âHmm.â
Dam Sa-young frowned.
âIt feels really strange.â
Ten-colored flowers have bloomed again.
Now, if you plant ten flowers, five will bloom. This was a truly great harvest. Iâve been experimenting with one or two flowers for a while now, but now I feel like itâs time to study it properly.
I couldnât help but laugh, but strangely, I didnât feel good.
At that time, a warrior came running in with a gasp.
âLord Hawk!â
âhmm?â
âJang Mun-in of the Volcanic Sect heard about the Battle of Maengju! He was so reckless that I couldnât stop himâ¦â
âIs that so?â
Damsayoung clicked her tongue.
âIt is clear that it was a road gate before it was a sword gate, but the person who could not control himself ended up as a long gateman. âIs the once powerful spirit of the volcano about to decline?â
He straightened his back and wiped his hands with a towel.
âLead the way.â
âyes!â
âand.â
âOh yeah!â
âIf something like this happens again in the future, none of you will be safe.â
The warriorâs face turned pale.
Since he is the person who serves her side by side, he knows more about Dam Sa-yeong than anyone else. He is a do-it-yourselfer. He dominated the martial arts faction with his amazing ruling power, but he was also a very scary person.
âI will keep that in mind!â
âLetâs go.â
Dam Sa-yeong entered Meng Ju-jeonâs conference room.
As soon as he entered, a middle-aged Taoist stood up, slamming the table.
âWhat are we doing here?â
Damsayoung frowned.
The gate guards were unable to do either this or that. In a way, it was a natural reaction since the opponent was a member of the Hwasan faction.
But Hwasan Jangmun-in should not behave like that. Because the people below are watching.
âYou guys just leave.â
âI follow your orders!â
The face of Hongsanzi (鴻山å), the long face of the volcano, turned red.
Unlike his angry self, Maengju looks very calm. That fueled his anger even more.
Damsayoung sat on the chair. It was a very leisurely movement.
âCalm down and sit down.â
âDo I look calm now?!â
âThis is Maengjujeon. âLetâs not raise our voices.â
âLord!â
âEven Jang Mun-inâs teacher did not dare to raise his voice in the battle of Mengju. âStop smearing your teacherâs face and sit down.â
Hong Sanziâs face distorted.
Dam Sa-young continued speaking calmly.
âI wonât give you three chances. âIf you show undignified behavior in front of me again, I will have your qualifications as an elder of the main group revoked.â
âprofit!â
âPlease sit down.â
All the heads of the Gupailbang and Odaesae families were running the martial arts world as elders of the Uicheonmaeng. If the volcanic wave is left out, it will be a lasting shame.
Of course, the position of elder cannot be removed at the discretion of the leader. However, Dam Sa-yeong, the leader of the time, was skilled in politics and could easily make it happen if he decided to do so.
Hong Sanja, who was huffing, sat down. I realized that this is not something that can be solved just by getting angry.
Damsayoung nodded.
âSo, why did you go so far as to break the rules and enter the Battle of Maengju?â
Itâs an intrusion. It was quite a provocative word, but Hong Sanja held back one more time.
âAre you sure you donât know why?â
âIâm the type of person who doesnât have enough time just to run a business. âI donât have time to look at things that donât need to be concerned.â
Dam Sa-youngâs tone was old-fashioned and full of dignity.
Is that why? Even if you say provocative words, it never sounds provocative. It can be said that it is truly a tone specialized for speech.
However, even his unique soft speaking skills did not work on Hong Sanja. Once he got angry, he didnât care about what to do.
âRunning a gang? âAre you saying the person running the business handled things like that?â
âYou must have been very angry. It seems like you think itâs me thatâs the reason, so Iâll forgive your rudeness once more. âSo what brought you here?â
Itâs a very calm response. Hong Sanjaâs stomach turned and felt like it was going to explode.
âSeo Jeong-pyo-guk (西åé¢å±) has been a member of Hwasanâs family for generations! Moreover, the person who established that symbol was also a disciple of Bonsan!â
âPlease continue.â
âBut are you going to hand over Seo Jeong-pyo to the Jongnam faction? âIs it because you donât know the location of Seo Jeong-pyoâs country in Shaanxi?!â
Damsayoung shook her head.
âYou donât know that disciples from the old faction run businesses such as Pyo Guk Store, and part of their income goes back to the old faction.
I heard that the old sect lends their name to prevent them from being exploited, and sometimes sends disciples from the main temple to act as guards.â
âEven though I knew everythingâ¦!â
âBut didnât you know that even such bonds can deteriorate over time?â
âWhat do you mean deterioration?â
âI heard that the contract between Volcanic Sect and Seo Jeong-pyo has expired. âIn order to maintain that relationship, we will have to renew the contract.â
âexactly!â
âBut isnât that contract ultimately just a superficial shackle?â
âwhat?!â
âPyo Guk-ju said so. âThe number of people visiting Pyoguk has been decreasing recently.â
bang!
Hong Sanjaâs face became even redder after hitting the table.
âexactly! Itâs all because of Byeoksanpyoguk (碧山é¢å±) created in Jongnam! In the meantime, Seo Jeong-pyoâ¦!â
âShouldnât the Jongnam faction create a national flag?â
âThatâs not what youâre saying, is it?â
âJang Mun-in said. Seo Jeong-pyo is said to be a descendant of Hwasan.
In that case, shouldnât you have taken the situation into account and received repayment? âMy income is decreasing, but I am taking in so much in repayment, so itâs no wonder Seo Jeong-pyo-guk is crying out in pain.â
Hong Sanzi gritted his teeth.
âWhy are you interfering in the affairs between the headquarters and Seo Jeong-pyo Bureau?â
âSince one side is asking for help, of course it has to be that way.
âThe contract was based on a 30% repayment, but it is not your fault that we received the same amount as before even though the overall profit decreased.â
âprofit!â
âI am the leader of Uicheon. âYou canât help but be concerned about volcanic waves, but you canât turn a blind eye to the cries of the weak for help.â
âIf something like that had happened, you could have told me in advance! How can you do this, connecting Seo Jeong-pyo-guk with Jong-nam?!â
âI just did what Seo Jeong-pyo wanted.â
Hong Sanjaâs eyes were burning. The look in his eyes was so rough that you couldnât even think of it as a Taoist monkâs eyes.
âPyo Guk-ju said that? âYou want to join hands with Jong-nam?â
âTo be exact, you said you wanted to stop dealing with the Volcanic Sect.â
âthis person!â
Damsayoung tilted her head.
âWhy are you angry?â
âYou donât seem to be angry?!â
âIâm curious. âWhy did Seo Jeong-pyo become so arrogant that he was a descendant of Hwasan, even though he created a contract to show off?â
ââ¦!â
âThe fact that Munpa and Pyo-guk signed a contract means that they are strangers. âI am saying that Seo Jeong-pyo is an independent country, not a source of income for Hwasan.â
Damsayoung smiled.
It was a smile whose meaning was difficult to understand. It was a laugh that seemed either to mock the other person or to sympathize with them.
Hong Sanjaâs hands were now shaking. If the opponent wasnât Lord Uicheon, he would have drawn his sword right away.
âThe Hwasan faction is the one who demanded excessive repayment like a robber even though they were a weak trading partner.â
âLord!!â
âWas I wrong? âIf Iâm wrong, tell me Iâm wrong.â
Hong Sanja pursed his lips. There was nothing to refute.
Damsayoung smiled.
âIf you wanted to maintain a good relationship, your faction should have respected Seo Jeong-pyo. But what purpose is there in the actions of the Hwasan faction, which only demanded excessive repayment without the slightest respect?â
ââ¦.â
âIt was just a matter of timing, but the relationship between your faction and Seo Jeong-pyoâs country had no choice but to end up like this. And most of the mistakes were made by volcanoes first.â
ââ¦.â
âAre you done now?â S~eaÊá´h the nôvel_Fire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
âNo!â
âhmm?â
Hong Sanzi spoke in a suppressed voice.
âOkay, letâs say itâs the volcano factionâs fault! âNo matter what, how can you make an alliance with the Jongnam faction unless the leader looks down on the original faction?â
Hwasan and Jongnam were sects that settled in the same island region.
Both schools started as Taomun (éé) and were Geommun (åé) who taught swordsmanship, and their influence was similar. Of course, a sense of competition was bound to arise.
That competitive spirit has been passed down from generation to generation, and the relationship between the two natural schools has become something that no martial artist can understand.
For the Hwasan faction, it was heartbreaking just to lose their beloved symbol, and to make matters worse, that symbol started trading with a rival faction. It was something worth a thousand dollars.
Damsayoung smiled.
âDid you say you were looking at the volcano in a funny way?â
âexactly!â
âThatâs right.â
ââ¦what?â
âI look down on volcanoes.â
Wooooow!
A mysterious purple energy flowed from Hong Sanjaâs body. Jahashingong (ç´«éç¥å), the strongest martial art in Hwasan, was used spontaneously.
âHow dare you call it a pierced mouthâ¦!â
âdare?â
Dam Sa-youngâs smile became even deeper.
âHow could someone so reckless become the master of a clan? âI am truly disappointed in the insight of the former great scholar.â
As soon as those words were finished, a powerful energy erupted from Dam Sa-youngâs body.
ââ¦!â
Hong Sanziâs face suddenly turned pale.
It was quiet, but for an instant, the energy that erupted violently disintegrated Jashingong in one go.
It was a wave that could not be resisted. Although he is young, Hong Sanja, who was said to boast of incompetence that is comparable to that of other old faction scholars, was pushed out by Gi faction.
âHey, Jang Mun-in.â
Dam Sa-youngâs eyes became sharp.
âWould you like to replace me with someone else right now in that precious position that I have only enjoyed for three years?â
Creepy!
The sincerity contained in the threatening words was more frightening than the energy waves emitted.
âThe reason people are better than dogs is because they have brains that can think.
Even dogs are busy running away from big opponents, so what do you believe in that makes you bark like that?â
ââ¦.â
âDid the position of leader seem so funny?â
Hong Sanja could not easily keep his mouth shut.
Dam Sa-youngâs dignified voice sounded like the voice of an evil spirit coming from a married woman. He was pushed out of the momentum and was unable to open his mouth.
Dam Sa-young looked out the door.
âCome in.â
The door opened and the gatekeeper came in.
âTell this to the head of the Criminal Justice Department. Leave one of the deepest prisons empty. âTell him that Jang Mun-in of the Hwasan Sect will be imprisoned soon, so do not give him any convenience.â
ânumber of people!â
Hong Sanja stood up without realizing it.
Damsayoung sipped tea.
âEven if you donât have a designated heir, there will be someone who has your eye on you and I will give you a visit, so please send a letter to the headquarters. âElect a new writer.â
ââ¦lord.â
âIâm telling you just in case, it would be better to give up any thoughts of running away. âIt would be difficult to deal with the elite soldiers of the original alliance with force that even I canât do anything about.â
Hong Sanzi gritted his teeth.
âReally⦠is it going to come out like this?â
âDonât you need a half-time inspection? Good. âThen letâs proceed right away.â
âLord! Do you think you can get away with putting pressure on the old sectâs master in this way?!â
Dam Sa-young chuckled. It seemed like there was no need to say anything more.
âI donât want to do anything myself. âSeal your inner strength yourself.â
âLord!!â
âIf thatâs true, Iâll give you my choice.â
Dam Sa-yeong placed her clasped hands on the data table.
âPlease announce to Kangho the details of the contract between the Hwasan faction and Seo Jeong-pyoâs bureau and the amount of money and income paid so far.â
âWhat?!â
âOtherwise, I will put Jang Moon-in in prison right now. âI have committed so many crimes in the past that other people wonât think itâs strange if I charge them with any crime.â
Damsayoung asked mischievously.
âAre you in prison? Or are you in disgrace?â
Dam Sa-yeong, who was watching Hong San-ja helplessly leaving Maengjujeon, turned her head to the window.
He yawned loudly.
âItâs already fall.â
