Episode 203
Nangjungjichu (囊中之錐) (3)
“What did you say just now?”
The official’s eyes sparkled with menacing brilliance.
Moyong thought. This person is a person who shows more sides than you might think.
After Tang Sang-ah entered the working group, the mood at the party was close to the worst.
Prince Moyong didn’t know whether it was because of his concern for his daughter or because of Yeon Ho-jeong, who was an obvious political enemy although he did not admit it.
‘It could be both.’
Prince Moyong spoke after quenching his thirst with tea.
“They said that the reason Yeon Ho-jeong took the daughter of the family head was because of the Tang family’s cancer skills.”
bang!
The table shook from the harsh punch.
The officer spoke in a terrifying voice.
“In other words, he was trying to attract Yang Chen’s interest by using his family’s studies?”
“exactly.”
“Because we’ll need real power until the Black Islanders stock up on power, right?”
“exactly.”
“…!”
“Of course, even if I were Yangcheon, I would have come that way.”
Pusssss.
The officer’s fist went through the table. The fierce poison that spewed out from the fist melted the tree.
Prince Moyong clicked his tongue.
“It’s a table that I paid a lot for.”
The doctor’s mouth opened.
“How dare that damned b*stard look down on my family’s cancer technology?”
In some ways, memorization is more difficult to learn than the recommended batu or military skills.
There is no device that can be fixed to a bow like an arrow. When dealing with memorization, the caster’s delicate senses and concentration are absolutely necessary.
In other words, contrary to popular perception, memorization is a difficult study to master. Even within the party family, there are at least ten blood relatives who lose their lives every year while learning cancer techniques.
Are you just using such extreme study as a way to attract the enemy’s interest?
For the party, this was truly a blow to our pride.
Mo Yong smiled bitterly.
“Do you think he would have looked down on the Tang family’s cancer technology?”
“Then what if Sang-Ah falls for this guy’s trick and teaches him the vision of the Tang family?!”
“That won’t happen.”
“Are you confident?”
“I am confident.”
Tang Gwan’s eyes deepened.
“Does holding his hand, even just for a moment, make your bad feelings toward him lessen?”
At that moment, Mo Yong-gun’s eyes took on a dazzling blue glow.
Flash!
It seemed like lightning was flashing.
It was a look full of intimidation that had never been shown in front of the hotel before. Of course, the party official could not help but be surprised.
“house owner.”
“….”
“I don’t want to have to talk about this between us every time, so I’ll make it clear today.”
Mo Yong gave a cold smile.
“To me, not only Yeon Haojeong but also the Yeon family and Zhuge family are all enemies.”
“….”
“We can hold hands at times? Of course it is. “I can’t just kill my enemies and ruin the world I will own in the future.”
Pajik! Puzzle!
Lightning flashed in the air.
Moyonggun’s thunder spirit instantly burned away the poison flowing in the room. Moyong himself is fine, but the energy is so strong that others can become addicted and suffer from bone disease.
And the official was very surprised by that momentary revelation of inner strength.
‘Incredible energy!’
The density of Jingi was beyond imagination.
It was the true power of Moyong-gun, who had never shown his true skills before. The power unleashed momentarily was this much, but it was questionable how powerful it would be if it were unleashed with intention.
“But for him to criticize me by saying that I have weakened my will and that I have forgotten my dream is quite unpleasant.”
“….”
The official looked at Prince Mo Yong in silence.
Moyong, who had maintained a cold expression, smiled for a moment.
“I tried to reach out to Gaju and she was looking for someone to be with. The two of us were intertwined through necessity, and we both benefited a lot, right? “We are closer than any other political alliance.”
“hmm.”
“Life is too short to live with a smile. “Let us not be suspicious of each other, even among ourselves.”
The official, who was looking at Moyonggun quietly, nodded.
“I apologize.”
It was a plain apple.
In that one word, the character of our institution was fully revealed. Moyong-gun burst into laughter.
“In a way, this person also overreacted. “I feel like I ruined the atmosphere for no reason, so I feel no shame.”
“You said what you needed to say. “I too have had complicated reviews recently, so I hope you understand.”
“No problem. Aren’t we going to become one both publicly and privately?”
This was said about the marriage of Mo Yong-woo and Tang Sang-ah.
The guest’s complexion became much more relaxed. When families become entangled in marriage, they have to follow the same path even if they don’t like it. What Mo Yong said was absolutely right.
Prince Moyong continued.
“Back to the original story, even Yeon Ho-jeong cannot urge the head of the family to present the vision of the party.”
“I need an explanation.”
“Because there is no need to cut off an ally’s arm and offer it up just to check on the person you bumped into during a turf war.”
The official’s eyes sparkled.
“He’s an ally.”
“exactly. Now we must act as allies, not as enemies. “I will have explained the reason to you before.”
“Even if we become the most powerful person in Baekdo, Yangcheon is a nuisance.”
“That’s correct.”
The official’s eyes lit up.
“Do you feel the same way?”
Moyong-gun smiled.
“I think the same thing. But right now, Yeon Ho-jeong is not in the Murim Alliance.”
This meant that preparations were being made steadily.
The official laughed.
“Couldn’t you have told me sooner?”
“It’s not because I don’t trust the head of the family, so I hope you don’t feel upset.”
“I’m not upset about that.”
“I know. “I’m just telling you this just in case.”
“Whoa.”
The official sighed.
My disorganized feeling has calmed down quite a bit. However, the review was still complicated.
Mo Yong asked.
“I have one question.”
“Please speak.”
“This is a question I ask because I am not good at memorization. “I know that each cancer technique has its own unique characteristics, but isn’t it true that traces of each sect are also visible in the basic techniques?”
The official nodded.
“Memorization is the same as swordsmanship. Just throw and hit? “The basic principles of stabbing and cutting with a sword are the same.”
“yes.”
“The traces of the sect are bound to be revealed everywhere, including the subtle changes in the wrist, the movement of the fingers, the angle of swinging the arm, and the elasticity of the waist.”
Moyong-gun stroked his chin.
“Those characteristics are evident even when teaching basic balls…”
“That’s right. It even varies depending on regional characteristics and type of memorization. “The world of memorization is so complicated.”
“In the end, this is the best outcome for the working group. “Infiltrate and extract information without teaching the enemy anything.”
“Is that possible?”
“well. “That is the responsibility of the working-level team, and it is not easy to predict because there are so many variables.”
Moyong looked out the window.
“And Yeon Ho-jeong probably doesn’t know this fact either.”
* * *
Paeyul’s eyes sparkled.
‘strong.’
Among the seven masters, he is the one who stands in the center and looks at this place with cold eyes.
His martial arts skills were so strong that even Paeyul, the elder of Jeomchang, was surprised.
Ugh.
The air trembles even though it is not intentionally radiating inner energy or showing signs of death.
I don’t know if it’s because of the atmosphere I was born with or because of the martial arts I learned and mastered. Whatever it was, the rough energy waves felt even when standing still were quite impressive.
‘There was a person in the dark island as well.’
In an instant, the spirit of victory soared. He was a talented person who was not inferior at all compared to himself.
Full-sang asked in a cold voice.
“Who are you?”
It was a voice clearly filled with discomfort.
The middle-aged man was not excited. Although his characteristic roughness was the same, he seemed to have a much calmer personality than expected.
“I am Blue Tiger.”
Cheongho.
It’s a very common name, but surprisingly, it’s also a name you’ve never heard of. Even the full world.
“I am working under an old man who is the strongest of the Black Island Martial Forest and is about to dominate the martial arts world.”
“…!”
“It means that I came under orders from Elder Yang, Lord Mukryong.”
Full-sang’s eyes shone.
‘Tell me?’
I proudly put Yangcheon in my mouth. Furthermore, he even told me the name of the organization he founded before even asking.
‘I’m not as careful as I thought. But that side isn’t without its head either. It’s not that I’m not careful, but I should interpret it to mean that I don’t need to be careful.’
The reason is that?
“Are you planning to tell the world soon?”
Full-sang looked to the side.
Before I knew it, Yeon Ho-jeong was walking out.
“Mukryongbura? “It’s a name I’ve never heard before.”
“….”
“It seems like you moved quite carefully, but you’re giving it to me too easily.”
Cheongho opened his mouth.
“You cannot deviate from two paths.”
Yeon Ho-jeong’s eyes sparkled.
“Live or die?”
“Yes.”
This means that if you make a mistake, you will be killed, so it doesn’t matter if you tell them the name of your group. It was a great feeling of confidence.
Yeon Ho-jeong asked Gaeun-sang.
“The ambassador type. What would you like to do?”
There was a conflict two days ago, but Gaeun-sang got the word out in a perfect manner.
“Well, that’s it? Anyway, we came to see that old man, right? “I don’t want to die, so I guess I should find a way to live, right?”
“As expected.”
“of course. “I don’t want to die.”
Yeon Ho-jeong chuckled.
He asked Cheong-ho.
“So what do you want?”
“proof.”
“Proof what?”
Cheongho’s eyes became cold.
“If you can prove that you are truly from the Martial Order Gate, I will take you to the Ink Dragon Club.”
Yeon Ho-jeong tilted his head.
“Do you know what sect the Mujongmun is?”
“know.”
“Do you say such bullshit knowingly?”
Crumbling. Crumbling.
For a moment, a bloody murderous spirit rose from the bodies of the six masters standing behind Cheongho.
Zhuge Zhen’s face hardened as he watched them from afar.
‘strong.’
Yeonhojeong’s defeat rate is full of Dang Sang-ah.
Among them, there is not a single one who is not an expert. In particular, Yeonhojeong’s martial arts skills were already part of a single family, and given his skills, it was easy to establish a school.
However, Yeonhojeong should be considered a special case. Furthermore, Pae-yul was also the youngest elder of the Jeomchang sect, and Bujeong-sang and Dang Sang-ah were the best later exponents of their sect.
In other words, they were a group of some of the most talented people in the Baekdo Island, but they were not like that.
‘He is probably not the strongest expert under Yang Cheon. Almost certain. But it’s not normal for people to be that strong.’
Tension appeared on Zhuge Yan’s face.
‘It’s a much stronger group than I thought.’
What was even more surprising was the response of Cheongho, the leader of the group.
“Look for that kind of common sense somewhere else.”
“….”
“If you cannot prove that you are from the Martial Order, the only path ahead of you is death.”
Full-sang glanced at Yeon-ho-jeong.
It comes out loud…?
Yeon Ho-jeong tilted his head.
“There has to be one way.”
“Then prove it.”
“Are you okay? “It might be a little dangerous.”
“Never speak twice with the same mouth.”
“I like that.”
Yeon Ho-jeong lifted the long spear that was standing next to him.
At that moment, Full Sang’s mouth widened. Not only Paeyul, but also Tang Sang’er and Zhuge Yan looked at him in surprise.
‘That human?’
Buuuung.
The true energy that flowed from the window that cut through the air pushed the air heavily.
Yeonhojeong’s eyes sparkled with fire.
“Now prove it.”
Ugh!
Cheongho’s eyes wavered.
Before he knew it, the blade of the spear was flying towards his uvula.
