Ice Demon King (4)
“Right.”
After hearing Su Jeong-gwang’s words, Muk-bi nodded.
“As a result, it is difficult to know Binggung’s intentions, but it means that the probability that it has a meaningful relationship with the Shinhwa Church is quite high.”
“That’s the way it is.”
Mukbi looked at Ki Cheonwoong.
Gi Cheon-woong tilted his head.
“Why do you look at me like that?”
“There’s something I’d like to ask you.”
“Okay, ask me.”
“Please note that this may be a somewhat sensitive question.”
“The very fact that I came here to the midfield was incomprehensible to you. “You don’t have to worry about that.”
“Then feel free to ask. “I heard that the current minor leader of the Shinhwa Church, that is, your son-in-law, is nothing more than a puppet of the Shinhwa Church, but is he in a state where he cannot even take accidental actions on his own?”
It was definitely a burdensome question. So much so that even So Jeong-gwang notices Ki Cheon-woong.
But unexpectedly, Ki Cheon-woong spoke in a calm tone as if nothing had happened.
“Words are just puppets, but since the myth has nothing to do with it, will they really just do as they are told? Moreover, although he is my son, his personality is completely different from mine. “Of course, I won’t do as I’m told.”
“What parts are different?”
“I have been particularly hot-tempered since I was young. There was too much fire in my heart. Well, thanks to that, I showed great talent in practicing Yeoyanggong, and after reaching the level, I became much calmer, but there was no room for explosions.”
“Does that mean it’s still like that now?”
“That’s right. “It’s still like that.”
Gi Cheon-woong’s eyes deepened.
No matter how calm I have become, it is difficult to remain calm when I remember the moment when I had a fight with my son right after leaving the closing room.
“Honestly, as Abby, I’m not a good person. I have never been a good parent to my children. So, I don’t know what my children are thinking or what they feel disappointed about.”
“… … .”
“I just know a little bit about him. “He was very ambitious and possessed a sense of superiority, so he had a strong tendency to treat his subordinates carelessly, but at least he knew how to take care of his own people.”
“It’s like the head of the Moyong family.”
“hmm?”
“That was the head of the Moyong family before it changed. He was good to me, but he also cut me off like a knife when I thought he didn’t need it. He was also a very smart person.”
“Yes, that aspect is strong. instead… … .”
Ki Cheon-woong licked his lips.
“He’s such a great guy that his martial arts talent is worthy of discussion throughout history, but if you ask him if he’s smart, it’s hard to say he is. Of course, it’s not that they’re ugly, but compared to those who are outstanding, they can be seen as extremely ordinary.”
“He may not have a great brain, but he is hot-headed and has a genius martial ability, so he must have great pride, so there is a good chance that he will act accidentally at times.”
“But since I’m acting as the head of an organization, I’m not going to use my brain. In fact, I handled a lot of various tasks before closing the building, so it’s not like I don’t have any practical experience.”
“That’s ambiguous.”
Yes. iffy.
Just hearing it in words makes it impossible to know what anyone will do.
However, the senses of warriors who live in the midst of life and death are so sharp that, if you have enough experience, you can draw a picture of the character’s behavior just by hearing the general personality.
However, with the exception of one martial arts expert, it was impossible to predict for ordinary people.
Excluding martial arts, it seems impossible to say that he is an extraordinary person, but that makes him more likely to deviate.
From the perspective of Mukbi, who has always only seen outstanding people, it can be said that he is a person who cannot be interpreted.
“But why are you asking that?”
Mukbi sighed and said.
“There is no way the Shinhwa Church will stand by and watch when the Bingung, or rather, the Bingryun Bridge cultists move south. “It’s common sense.”
“Of course I think so too. “Whether he touched it or not, at least he couldn’t have been unaware of the movement of the Bingryunists.”
“In that case, you would have to worry about whether you just let them go or joined hands, but based on what I heard just a moment ago, it seems difficult to say that they joined hands.”
“If you think about past history, that’s true.”
“However, it is difficult to understand why such closed-minded people bothered to reach the midfield. In other words, it is a question that is difficult to answer no matter how you think about it.”
“I think so too. “It is possible to determine which side is more likely, but it is difficult to predict intent.”
“In fact, we have already sent someone, so it would be ridiculous to worry about it further. However, what I am worried about is… … .”
“hmm?”
There was a little tension on Muk Fei’s face.
“If Shinhwaism was a sect strong enough to be nervous, wouldn’t that mean there could be a Mugeuksu?”
Gi Cheon-woong nodded.
“Of course it is.”
“… … .”
“In different regions, the martial arts developed are also different. However, all martial arts show similar appearances when they reach a certain level. The history of Bingryun Bridge spans a thousand years. “No one knows how many masters will reach the Heavenly Flower Sutra level.”
“Probably not much.”
“Why do you think that?”
“The development of martial arts is the development of technology, which in turn leads to the development of society. From what I have seen, contact and exchange with other societies are essential for the advancement of any study.”
“… … yes.”
“Of course, a rare genius may be born, change the existing framework and deliver revolutionary enlightenment. However, it is difficult for even one such person to be born in one generation. “If Bingryun Bridge was such a closed group, there wouldn’t be a large number of non-members, even considering its thousand-year history.”
Ki Cheon-woong looked at Muk-bi with admiring eyes.
“You’re good at it, aren’t you?”
Just like himself, it was not easy for the smart Jeonggwang So to make predictions about organizations or fields he did not know.
But silence was different. Rather, because there are many things they do not know, their ability to actively expand and apply what they know and experience is excellent.
This is possible because you always try to find the best move within your knowledge.
So Jeong-gwang said with a stern face.
“If you do what you said… … .”
“hmm?”
“If, as you said, the number of non-geuks is extremely small, then of course it seems like it must be a small number.”
“… … ?”
“I think we can infer their intentions depending on whether they sent the Mugeuksu or not.”
“What does that mean?”
When Ki Cheon-woong was puzzled, Mok-bi clapped his hands.
“Under the judgment that Binggung only has a very small number of absolute experts, if only a few experts came along… … .”
“Even if we don’t know what the intention is, we can guess what the other party is thinking.”
“Yes, that could happen.”
Mukbi asked Ki Cheonwoong.
“I don’t really know because my level is low, but I heard that those who have reached the ultimate level have explosively sensitive energy because they control vast amounts of energy, and in some cases, they even show superpowers that allow them to understand the intentions of others.”
“There are quite a few people like that. Of course, many preparations will be necessary. They must resonate with each other. but… … .”
Gi Cheon-woong looked at the two people with strange eyes.
“Yes, there is a possibility. “I also have had a lot of trouble reading other people’s desires since Sangsangjeon was devastated.”
Mukbi asked Su Jeonggwang.
“Who is the closest Mugeuksu to Shaanxi currently?”
“They are probably members of the Murim Alliance. “Because there is a King of Fist and the Lord of Swords there.”
“Are you currently aware of senior Mak’s location?”
“We received intelligence that he entered Gansu with Prince Cheon Hyo-rak some time ago, but there has been no news since then.”
Gi Cheon-woong shook his head.
“Even if there is a non-polar water that can be operated right now, it is a problem. Their words are non-polar, and they too are people with flesh and blood. “Even if you run with crazy martial arts skills, no one knows how long it will take to reach Shaanxi.”
“In the end, we just have to wait and see.”
“That’s the way it is.”
Gi Cheon-woong said with a chuckle.
“Still, didn’t we send that young prosecutor because we judged that he had sufficient response capabilities? I too have seen many masters, but I have never seen so many well-trained swordsmen. “It seems like your judgment is flexible.”
“yes. So I sent it.”
“I can’t help but worry, but as a leader, you must not look back when ordering subordinates. “I trusted you and sent you, so now the only answer is to wait and see.”
Mukbi laughed bitterly.
“Not even my subordinates.”
“Whatever.”
Gi Cheon-woong looked around.
“Anyway, where is Seongju? People are so busy running around. “I’m not the type of person to play alone while others are working.”
“Ah, Lord Seong.”
So Jeong-gwang scratched his head.
“The lord of the castle is doing something that only the lord of the castle can do.”
* * *
Slurp.
Mo Yong-woo got off his horse and suddenly appeared next to Kang Ryang.
Hatsun’s eyes sparkled.
“Great move. “They say there are a lot of talented people on the continent, but the power is unbefitting for someone of his age.”
Mo Yong-woo took the lead.
“Mo Yong-woo, the minor leader of the Baekdo faction, the Murim League, meets the master of the North Sea.”
“You’re being too polite.”
“It’s a natural courtesy in the midfield.”
Hatseon glanced at Kang Ryang and said.
“That warrior is different.”
“The continent is large. Just as the culture is different in each region, each person’s personality is also different.”
“That seems plausible.”
“So, I’ll ask.”
Mo Yong-woo got straight to the point.
“For what reason did the ice palace experts come to the continent?”
Mojaseon looked around and said.
“Where is the owner of the land? “It’s not a crack, nor is it an object.”
“… … .”
“I just came because it was worth it. “Is that such a big problem?”
“The palace lord knows very well that I am not saying such things.”
“Do you think so?”
“Isn’t the palace lord stationed here for a long time because he didn’t know how the people here would react?”
“You are the ones who said that any further movement would be considered an act of aggression and that you would fight back.”
“And yet you stopped. “It means that you know everything that’s going on in the world.”
A hint of interest appeared on Mojaseon’s face.
Mo Yong-woo has a softness that does not fit the personalities of Binggung people.
But I liked the atmosphere and attitude. The packaging is soft, but the kernels are hard. He knew how to ask directly what he wanted and had the ability to constantly delve into his partner’s true feelings.
Other people in the Bing Palace might say that he was like a snake, but in the eyes of her who runs an organization, Mo Yong-woo’s speaking skills were not usually great skills.
“That’s literally it. I just came because it was worth it. They stayed stationed because they didn’t want to engage in a useless fight, but if a battle broke out, they would never back down. “We’re not that soft.”
“Does this mean we can take it at face value?”
“Of course.”
Mo Yong-woo’s eyes deepened.
The moment when he was quietly looking at the hat line and was about to open his mouth again.
“The palace collapsed, the ice melted, and over 500 of our family members died en masse, so we had to find a place to go.”
“… … ?!”
“That’s how I came here. That is our answer.”
