Episode 1016
Changed history (6)
Namgunghyeon completely froze.
His posture and expression froze, like a child caught doing something naughty.
“Why are you doing that?”
Seung Namgung slowly lifted his buttocks from the rock.
He looked very tired. A strong person who has achieved victory will hardly ever be tired due to his physical strength unless he fights to the death.
“Is it so surprising that your grandfather is here?”
“Jo…”
Namgung-hyeon coughed as he spoke. My throat was locked and no words came out.
“okay.”
Why?
The back seems to be slightly bent.
His back was bent and his face was full of fatigue, but his eyes were bright.
Creepy!
Namgoonghyun felt scared as if he was going to lose his breath.
A reddish air current is visible in the blue eye light. It wasn’t the eyes that looked at blood relatives.
Dangerous.
This was not the image of the best swordsman in the Jungwon region who devoted his entire life to kendo and lived a noble life. Even if you were faced with the enemy of your life, you wouldn’t be able to show something like that.
“You might wonder. “You might be surprised to see that a great elder from the family who had gone to cultivate with old man Zongli in the distance suddenly appeared in a place like this.”
“…!”
“Then why is this old man here? “You can’t help but wonder about it again.”
Grrrr.
Namgoonghyeon’s body trembled.
Namgung Seung’s eyes deepened.
“Why did you do that?”
Conversation as blood relatives is no longer necessary.
Seung Namgung asked for the exact reason.
His question got to the root. Rather than asking who Namgoong-hyeon met and broke down and why he did such a dangerous thing, I am asking why he grew up like this.
Therefore, the question could not help but be self-mocking.
The reason my bloodline was damaged was because my predecessor’s teachings were incorrect.
Because the previous generation paid less attention to the previous generation, the previous generation was unable to properly control it, so the later generation changed like that.
“Grandpa Joe.”
“In the past, when you and Pyo came to me for teachings, it wasn’t at this level. At that time, I knew I was already devastated, but I understood because I also had that experience. “When you are young, you have great joy and great frustration.”
“….”
“I didn’t think it was too late. Namgung’s blood is strong. “We may face many setbacks, but the strength to always stand up and aim our sword at the world is ingrained in our blood.”
“I just…!”
“So while teaching you martial arts, I tried to teach you the correctness of the sword rather than the sharpness of the sword. The sword shows the true heart of a warrior. It’s not the day, it’s the shape. “Even though you may shake and sometimes break, you must always move forward.”
Namgoonghyun swallowed his saliva repeatedly.
I didn’t understand my grandfather’s words. It was like hundreds of bees buzzing in my ears.
However, the will of Namgung Seung, his grandfather’s sword emperor, was forced through Namgung Hyeon’s fear and astonishment.
“Pyo-ah was like that too. The guy was overly arrogant. “I was born with talent, but my growth stopped because I forgot the four letters ‘Jeongjeojiwa (井底之蛙).’”
“….”
“Obsessing on being the best, being mistaken for being the best, and dreaming of being the best are all different.”
Namgung Seung closed his eyes.
“Your father was obsessed with excellence. I mistakenly thought Pyo Ah was the best. And I dreamed of the best.”
“…!”
“You are different from anyone else.”
“Grandfather.”
“I truly could not have imagined that the difference would be so vicious that even in the face of corruption, we would turn a blind eye.”
It’s over.
Namgoonghyeon realized that everything was broken.
Seung Namgung spoke of his corruption. That meant that he knew roughly how his father’s death occurred.
“more.”
Slurp.
Namgung Seung drew his sword.
A nameless sword. Although it was a sword without much decoration, a brilliant brilliance rose from its body as it caught the light that penetrated through the leaves.
“Do you have anything to say?”
Namgoonghyun took a step back without realizing it.
Even at the moment of drawing the sword, there was no momentum. Rather, it was scarier.
“I… no, I did this…”
Namgung Seung’s eyes lit up.
Suddenly!
Namgoonghyeon opened his mouth wide.
dump.
Nam Gung-hyeon, who was kneeling, had his eyes wide open.
It felt like all strength in my body was gone. Even saliva flowed from the open mouth.
“Huh. “Whoop.”
Namgung Seung’s face turned pale in an instant.
The sword in my hand suddenly tilted to the ground. The calm prayer became a little rough.
But even for a moment.
After taking a deep breath and praying, Namgung Seung slowly walked in front of Namgung Hyeon.
“….”
Namgung Seung’s eyes wavered.
Namgoonghyeon knelt down and bowed his head, and before he knew it, he lost consciousness.
“What the hell…”
His eyes were full of all kinds of emotions.
There will be no end to the complexity. He was unable to recover from the shock of his son’s death.
I said many things to my grandson, but in fact, the most difficult thing was Namgung Seung.
‘I lived wrongly.’
Even after seeing his son’s misbehavior, he just clicked his tongue and did not properly correct it. Because it had already grown too big to correct.
I had faith that at least I would not tarnish my family’s name, so I devoted myself to kendo.
But the reality was different.
If I had treated my son properly from a young age, my grandchildren would not have shown such ugly behavior.
And… my son wouldn’t have died in vain like this.
Grumbling.
Tears flowed from Namgungseung’s eyes.
‘Let’s die.’
Even if you are a master of holy heaven, it is difficult to maintain your sanity in the face of broken flesh and blood.
As his son also died, Namgung Seung’s heart fire and frustration reached their peak.
‘I’ll kill you and take this money with you.’
The moment Namgung Seung raises his sword.
Sreuk.
An old sword touched the body of Namgung Seung’s sword.
Namgung Seung turned his head.
There was a jonglibaek there.
“you…?”
“Don’t do that.”
Before we knew it, the two people had decided to make friends.
Zhong Libai shook his head.
“A person like this knows that death is not a responsibility but an escape.”
“….”
“Your grandchild should be locked in prison. And as the adult of Namgung, you must take responsibility, even if it is harsh. “That is the royal road.”
Namgung Seung, who was looking at Jong-ri Baek with wet eyes, lowered his sword helplessly.
A sad look appeared on Zhong Libai’s face.
Although we had previously regarded each other as sworn enemies rather than archenemies, we actually got along well when we discussed the issue.
The two became friends in an instant, and in a short period of time, they got to know each other better than anyone else.
So, Zhonglibaek understood Nangungseung’s feelings. He has no children, but if he had children, he would have reacted not much different from Namgung Seung.
Tuk.
Zhonglibaek placed the large bundle he was holding in his left hand on the floor.
“That is…?”
“It’s a fire bomb. Sobuju was right. The area around the leader of the Murim League was the center of the explosion. “I don’t know how powerful it was, but the explosion probably reached all the way to the core.”
Anger appeared in Namgung Seung’s eyes.
It was extreme anger towards the person who drove his son to death and gave that object to his grandson.
Zhonglibaek said while looking at Namgunghyeon.
“You used your well-honed heart sword like this. “Their consciousness was completely blown away… That’s amazing.”
“I didn’t know that I would already be using the power I gained through training with you.”
“That’s right.”
“It was possible because my grandson’s level was much lower than mine. “No one who has reached the top will be defeated.”
Namgung Seung, who regained his composure for a moment, put Namgung Hyeon on his shoulder.
“Go to the military department.”
* * *
“That’s amazing. When will we get there?”
“Before I hid in the mountain behind Maengjubu, I ran like a lightning bolt.”
Hong Ik-cheon stuck his tongue out.
This is not to elicit a reaction from the other person, but to be genuinely surprised.
“How did you know that they were planning to explode the Maengjubu area?”
“I narrowed it down to a total of four culprits. Two of them were very unlikely. Then there are only two left, and they have only recently joined the Murim Alliance. Fortunately, you had a lot of time.”
“….”
“He may have been picking on quite a few people besides Namgung-hyeon in the Namgung family, but the important thing was what was the reason for this situation.”
Hong Ik-cheon looked at Yeon Ho-jeong in silence.
“You are a pervert who finds people’s reactions interesting and takes pleasure in manipulating them. But you can’t move without any purpose. “The fact that they falsely accused me means that they will destroy me, but no matter how I looked at it, I was surprised that their response afterward was so clumsy.”
“I did.”
“In the end, there is only one answer. You have no intention of destroying me. Of course, if that actually happens, that’s not a bad thing either.”
“….”
“You had a clear purpose. “They were trying to do something while the Murim League was boiling over and the leadership’s attention was distracted.”
“….”
“It is difficult to assassinate the leaders. Even the best assassin would have a hard time getting through here. “In the end, it is information or disturbance.”
Yeon Ho-jeong smiled faintly.
“It is nearly impossible to steal information from the military department in charge of Zhuge Dynasty. In that case, it is highly likely that the main purpose is to disrupt the entire alliance and cause a crack in the Baekdo political faction’s trust in the Murim Alliance.”
“….”
“Meanwhile, Meng was already confused by the death of the Nangong family. “Then there aren’t many options.”
“Is that so.”
“It was amazing. Namgoong Hyun’s jealousy toward me and even took advantage of me to cause confusion. Even if the anti-black faction loses momentum, once the distrust toward the black people was kindled, it would not be difficult for it to be kindled a second time.”
“….”
“If it were an ordinary Sejak, you would have focused your enthusiasm on the explosion near Maengjubu, but in the meantime, you took care of the pleasure you wanted to get. “In the end, that’s what held you back.”
Hong Ik-cheon’s face was filled with admiration.
“You are truly terrifying.”
“A devil? “The devil is inherently scary.”
“I thought he was a unique person who I could not understand. But that wasn’t it. You are the same person. “I’m just higher than everyone else.”
“Thank you for the compliment.”
It was then.
Squeeze!
Mo Yong’s brain energy spread throughout the room.
It surrounds the area with thunder energy without harming anyone.
The delicacy of Qigong has reached its peak. Hong Ik-cheon’s eyes became strange.
“The head of the Moyong family has also been hiding his skills.”
“I never hid it. I just didn’t reveal it. “But I’ve thought a lot about how I can beat you.”
“Me?”
The corners of Moyong’s mouth rose.
“It is the fate of a warrior. “No matter how close someone is to you, if they see your skills, they will immediately look for ways to destroy you.”
Hong Ik-cheon shook his head.
“You both went way beyond common sense.”
“Are you the only one who can do it?”
“So is this the result?”
“He always twitched his index finger before using martial arts.”
“…?!”
“It doesn’t seem to be a habit, and it appears to be a nervous effect caused by the nature of internal energy, but I can’t know the details. “The only thing that matters is that I know you.”
Hong Ik-cheon’s eyes widened.
Prince Moyong said calmly.
“Your martial arts skill involves using extreme techniques. Driving away moisture with the heat of brain energy is an advantageous way to fight against you.”
“….”
“You were so busy looking out for others that you didn’t pay attention to yourself.”
Hong Ik-cheon, who was quietly looking at Mo Yong-gun, nodded.
“I lost.”
