Episode 871
Eyes of the Kings (3)
Yeon Ho-jeong gathered together not only Yeon Wi, but also Mukbi, Gangnyang Jinyang, and Yeon Ji-pyeong and explained his situation.
“Are you leaving again?”
A look of disappointment was evident on Yeon Ji-pyeong’s face.
It’s been a while since I saw my brother. It is said that the older brother is joining the Murim Alliance again. There didn’t seem to be any promise as to when I would be able to see it.
“There is no choice.”
Yeonwi nodded.
“You are right. The owner of Shinmarim is a strong man who claims to be the best in the world. “At least one strong person from Seongcheon must go so that even if the worst situation arises, we will be able to deal with it.”
“I guess so.”
“But…”
Yeonwi looked at Makwon without realizing it.
Makwon grinned.
“What are you so worried about? “There’s no way I could have left you to go alone, right?”
“Hehe, I’m just sorry.”
“It’s my little brother. I’ve devoted the rest of my life to this friend. At least until the war ends.”
Makwon tapped Yeonhojeong on the shoulder.
“When I think of the grace I received from my younger brother, it is not a waste to give up my life. So don’t worry too much, matriarch.”
Yeon Ho-jeong laughed bitterly.
“It would make things easier if you came with me.”
“It will be much easier if they are not special people. If there are stronger people than expected, it may be better to bring a combat unit rather than me.”
“Maybe so.”
Yeon Ho-jeong looked at Muk-bi.
“I haven’t heard from Prince Cheon about the situation yet, but in any fight, it would be good to have someone who specializes in sniping.”
Mukbi smiled.
“It’s a long way, but it’ll be okay.”
Kang-ryang raised his hand.
“Me too…”
“You and Jinyang will stay here.”
“yes?!”
Kang Ryang’s eyebrows rose high.
“why!”
Jinyang hit Kangryang with his elbow.
“What are you so upset about? The Murimmaeng rice was delicious. It’s such an annoyingly long way…”
“Oh brother, just shut up!”
“This damn kid? Hey man! “Amman, just shut up!”
Yeon Ho-jeong raised his hand and stopped the conversation between the two people.
“father.”
“OK.”
“Please take care of the two of them.”
Yeonwi chuckled.
“Don’t worry. “I already checked the martial arts skills of the two people, and I was very disappointed in an unexpected part.”
Kang Ryang and Jin Yang flinched.
“and.”
Yeonwi spoke honestly.
“It was the same with Via.”
Mo Fei’s face turned slightly red.
“I’m sorry.”
“hmm? Haha, how can you say sorry? “Is it something to feel sorry for or feel sorry for someone because you have shortcomings?”
“But…”
“If you want to become a leader in that field, all you have to do is admit your shortcomings and work hard. Is there anyone in this world who doesn’t have any shortcomings? “I’m not good at anything, and even Hojeong and our seniors, who are stronger than us, each have their own shortcomings.”
Yeonwi looked at Makwon and asked.
“Isn’t that right?”
Makwon smiled brightly and said.
“Yes, there are still many things lacking. To be honest, I felt prickly when I saw my senior apprentice a little while ago. “If I just dragged it into a fight, it would probably end up in a fight, but if I just kept fighting, I thought it would be hard to get past 80 sum.”
“That’s a significant difference.”
“That’s right. I expected that he would be stronger than me, but it was a truly surprising realization. “It didn’t seem like a particularly good match.”
Yeonwi said while looking at Mukbi.
“Did you see it? Even masters who have reached great heights have shortcomings. “It’s never something to be ashamed of.”
“…yes.”
“What I’m curious about, however, is that although it is true that your martial arts skills are higher than Gangryang and Jinyang, there is clearly still room for training.”
Yeonwi turned his gaze to Yeonhojeong.
“Are you planning on leaving Via alone? In my opinion, if BIA focuses well, it seems that explosive growth can be achieved in a short period of time.”
“So, I would like to go with someone who can help this guy.”
“Hmm?”
Everyone’s eyes were focused on Yeon Ho-jeong.
Yeon Ho-jeong shrugged his shoulders.
“There are people who haven’t mastered archery, but if they put their mind to it and learn it, they can become masters in an instant.”
“Who is that?”
“Isn’t there a family in the martial arts world that can be proudly said to be the best in the world when it comes to projectile weapons?”
“…Hoo.”
Yeonwi’s eyes lit up.
“This is a person who came to elect a leader. Can we join hands and feet together?”
“I guessed it once before. Moreover, his ability to kill on a mass scale is as good as anyone else’s, so he could be of great help.”
“Of course it is. “If you go with that person, there will be no need to bring a combat unit.”
“And…”
Yeon Ho-jeong looked at Yeon Ji-pyeong.
“I would like to take Okcheong and Jipyeong, shamans belonging to Uijeonggun.”
Yeon Ji-pyeong was surprised.
Yeonwi was equally surprised. But his expression was calmer than expected.
“Are you going to take Jipyeong with you?”
“yes.”
“Do you have any other thoughts?”
“Ji-pyeong’s talent is amazing. “If you had been traveling through the martial arts world with me and fighting, you would have crossed the border by now.”
“Instead, I wouldn’t have been able to gain the same insight I have now.”
“That’s right. Even without that bloody experience, my horizons grew well. “In terms of insight and understanding, he is no less than the master of a faction.”
Yeonwi’s eyes deepened.
“Ji-pyeong’s amazing talent does not need teaching. “At least I thought my teaching would not be necessary.”
“But?”
“It’s different now.”
Yeon Ho-jeong smiled.
“After reaching this level, I feel like I have something to share with Jipyeong. “I want to be with you.”
Yeon Ji-pyeong looked at Yeon Ho-jeong with an impressed face.
“older brother.”
“You b*stard, don’t look at me like that. It’s nice to say that you have something to give, but in the end, you’re going to a place where you don’t know what’s going to happen. “It’s good to be nervous.”
“Yes, I will be nervous.”
“You don’t look nervous at all.”
Yeon Ho-jeong smiled and turned his gaze to Yeon Wi.
Yeonwi nodded.
“I will guard this place well. “Take care of your little brother.”
“Yes, I understand.”
“Is there anyone else you can join?”
“There is a floating boat.”
“By Buseon, do you mean your samae?”
“That’s right. “I will probably arrive at Maeng with senior Gok-gyeong within three days.”
Yeonwi nodded.
“He’s your senior… Did you call him a leader?”
“That’s right. It seems like I was thinking of going straight to Mukryongbu, but I couldn’t do that. The atmosphere will vary depending on where you stop first.”
“Okay, good job. “If your senior had headed straight to the Mukryongbu, there would have been some degree of tension between the Murim Alliance and the Mukryongbu as it coincided with the leader election period.”
“Furthermore, once tension and doubt arise, they rarely go away. After the Murim Alliance came to congratulate us, it would be a good idea to go to the Mukryongbu with the Murim Alliance personnel.”
If it’s a minor detail, it’s a minor detail. However, the subjects who create that minor conflict are the emperor and his army.
Then it can no longer be a trivial problem. If the imperial palace sends someone to the Mukryongbu for a wedding ceremony ahead of the appointment ceremony of the first Murim lord, the picture becomes very ambiguous.
Even though things may be okay for each other, those caught in the middle are starting to notice. It may not be a problem, but there is no need to make room for it.
“Then let’s see.”
Yeonwi folded her fingers and said.
“You, Senior Makwon, Bia, and Jipyeong are going. Taoist Okcheong of Uijeong-gun will be with us, and ‘he’ and the person who will be your samai will also go together.”
“That’s right.”
“Hmm, I’ll figure it out, but there won’t be many people who have worked together, so is that okay?”
Of course, if it is rain, it will be rain.
Makwon’s abilities are comparable to Yeonhojeong’s. Even if you have never put your hands and feet together before, you will do well, and apart from that, your very existence is a huge help.
Mukbi and ‘he’ said that they had worked hand in hand with Yeonhojeong before, but they were taking Yeonjipyeong and Okcheong with them. There is no need to say how talented the two are, but even outstanding talent can be in vain in real life.
In addition, Bu-seon, Yeonho-jeong’s master, had no experience in group warfare.
“It will be fine. Even if it doesn’t work, we have to do it. “If a war breaks out in the future, you can’t just kill someone with a sword just because they never fought together.”
“You’re right, though.”
Yeon Ho-jeong stood up.
“We will do that for now. “I’ll come back later.”
“Are you going to that person?”
“yes. “If you don’t come first, I’m going to lose my temper again.”
“Just change your clothes and go. “My whole body is covered in blood.”
Makwon cleared his throat. Because he was the one who made Yeonhojeong covered in blood.
Well, if you look at it that way, Makwon wasn’t normal either. Thanks to the extreme use of the Heavenly Martial God Weapon, there were no significant injuries, but the internal injuries were significant.
After a while, Yeon Ho-jeong, who had changed his clothes, spoke to Yeon Wi.
“I’ll be back.”
“OK.”
“And father.”
“hmm?”
“Your father is slowly making up his mind now.”
For a moment, Yeonwi’s eyes wavered.
Yeon Ho-jeong lowered his head.
“You can even forget what you have. “Your father will know.”
“…okay.”
“There must be a reason why you don’t go up. “I can only guess, but I don’t think it will be any good if it drags on for too long.”
“Remember this.”
“yes.”
With those words, Yeon Ho-jeong left Pagungak.
* * *
Shhh! thud!
When Yeon Ho-jeong arrived at ‘his’ residence, a fight was in full swing there.
Piiiiing! Ting!
The sound of tearing the air, the sound of a piece of iron being thrown away.
It’s truly brutal. There were no noticeable shock waves or scary killing sounds, but just the sound of steel clashing against steel was enough to send goosebumps all over my body.
“surely.”
Even though they knew that Yeon Ho-jeong was blatantly standing on the wall, the official’s eyes were focused on the other person.
“Kwanilgong… that’s amazing. It’s much more powerful than before. “I thought it boasted excellent perfection back then, but now it seems like there is literally no way to go higher.”
Paeyul, who retrieved the short spear, nodded.
“It was an incredible cancer technique. “Just by flicking out a fingernail-sized instrument, my entire upper body shakes.”
“Isn’t the world changing rapidly? I ended up reading sutras thanks to my father, but it is not a memorization technique. “I had no choice but to pay more attention.”
“I felt like I would grow even more. That’s why it’s even creepier. It’s still like this now, but later…”
“I don’t want to infer an area that hasn’t been reached. Anyway, I enjoyed it.”
The loss rate was extremely high.
“Thank you for accepting the secret service.”
“I learned a lot too.”
The Guan Ilchang and the Guan Il Sword are as powerful as a beam of light and produce a killing result with a single strike.
It is a strong and amazing martial art, but strangely its basis is closer to shooting techniques such as archery and arm techniques than to other spear techniques and sword techniques.
This was the reason Paeyul asked the party official to take care of the affairs for a few days. Thanks to this, Paeyul’s martial arts skills were also experiencing another change in just a few days.
“so.”
The official frowned openly and looked at Yeon Ho-jeong.
“What are you doing? “Without any message?”
Paeyul tilted his head.
“What’s going on?”
Why?
Yeon Ho-jeong fell to the floor, thinking that the two people’s personalities and speaking styles were very similar.
“I didn’t even think about Paeyul, but it turned out better. “Both of you, please prepare to leave within five days.”
“What are you talking about all of a sudden?”
“What are you talking about? “You know my strengths and weaknesses clearly.”
“Hey, are you going to see blood again?”
“That’s it.”
“What did you do in your past life? Where are you this time?”
“Cheonghae Castle.”
“Let’s see, he’s really fierce.”
Although they grumbled, the two still did not reject Yeon Ho-jeong’s offer.
What was surprising was the hotel. There would still be some housework left to do, but Yongke nodded and said he would gladly join us.
It was fortunate for Yeonhojeong. Although others may not know, the party had no master who could replace him.
In less than a day, Yeon Ho-jeong gathered all the masters to go with him.
