Ice Demon King (5)
I lost my family and land.
The meaning of those words was not light. Even Mo Yong-woo was at a loss for words for an instant.
Hatsun looked around.
“This continent isn’t bad either. It can’t be compared to the North Sea, but the winter weather is pretty good. “I heard it gets very hot further south.”
“That’s right.”
“But if you adapt, you will live well. “You can’t go all the way down south, though.”
Kang Ryang’s eyes deepened.
‘It’s the north.’
He didn’t sense the lie in Mojaseon’s words. Mo Yong-woo is probably similar.
Moreover, since they come from a very cold region, if they settle in the central plains, they have no choice but to stay in the north. Mojaseon’s words were very valid.
but.
‘If they join hands with the three religions, they will be able to reside in the north and communicate with the enemy to open the access road.’
If it were a time when there were no worries about war, Jiang Liang would not have cared at all whether the North Sea Ice Palace came in or the three religions settled down.
The problem is that the war between the martial arts and the three religions in the central plains has become visible, and because of that, no organization can be viewed with suspicion.
Kang Liang looked at Mo Yongwu.
Feeling his gaze, Mo Yong-woo nodded slightly. Although no words were exchanged, it probably means that both people feel the same way.
Mo Yong-woo opened his mouth.
“A big problem has occurred at the Ice Palace.”
“That’s the way it is.”
Mojaseon remained calm while saying that he had lost his home.
No matter how quick-witted Mo Yong-woo was, it was difficult to figure out Go Soo’s feelings in detail as he reached the end of his life. She decided that what she said was not a lie, but she had no idea what on earth she had in mind that brought her here.
“You don’t seem to like unnecessary politeness, so I’ll ask what I want to ask too.”
“… … .”
“The palace lord’s martial arts skills are worthy of being considered the pinnacle of the world. “I haven’t reached that level, so I don’t know the exact level, but it seems to be almost no different from Seongcheon, which is said to be the best in the central region.”
To be more specific, it seemed like he was at the level of a king. This is also just a guess, but in Mo Yong-wu’s opinion, Mo Seon’s martial arts skills were not at least enough to give him an edge over the Three Emperors.
“With a martial artist of that level, it is not surprising that he lost the will to fight against external enemies, but I wonder why he came all the way to Ye with his family.”
“Is it a personal curiosity? Or is it just curiosity as a representative of Moorim?”
“I am not a representative of the Murim Alliance, but I am a representative of the Murim Alliance.”
“Don’t they mean the same thing?”
“different. “The Murim Alliance is just an alliance of political factions in the White Islands, and the Black Islands are separate.”
“It’s black and white.”
“Anyway, my question is both personal and public.”
The corners of Hatsun’s mouth rose slightly. The change was almost invisible, but Kang Ryang could read bitterness in her expression.
“There is no end to martial arts. When you think it’s the end, the stars of the North Star will tell you that there’s always a new horizon. Since the sights each person sees is different, the path taken is also different, and as a result, there is no such thing as absolute invincibility. “The heavens do not allow you to be alone, so even if you claim the reputation of the strongest, there is always a natural enemy lurking somewhere in the world.”
In the emotionless and hard tone of speech, a distant time and a deep understanding are present.
“That is why my existence, which has reached its peak on our earth, may be mere prey for the Absolute in another world.”
“… … .”
“Moreover, I have relatives to protect. “My pride does not allow me to use the word ‘flight,’ but I cannot stand by and watch the thousand-year history of the Ice Palace crumble in the face of the enemy’s onslaught.”
“What you mean by enemy… … .”
“It wouldn’t be so bad if I died fighting. However, if I cannot die and am in a position to be humiliated by the enemy, my only choice as a monarch is to flee.”
Kang Ryang asked directly.
“Are they the three religions?”
Mojaseon looked at Kangryang.
The eyes were so beautiful and deep, and filled with such chill.
“If the three religions you are talking about are the three religions and religions, then you can say so.”
“… … !”
“But not the entire Sangong family stepped forward. Among the three gong families, there was no painter (fire family) who could be considered a mortal enemy. “The irrational, crazy demons and the lustful ghosts joined hands and came in.”
It probably means light blood and death.
I could say it was truly unexpected, but at the same time, I felt like it was worth it.
The name of the North Sea Ice Palace was a mystery, but the fact that their military power was comparable to that of any of the Great Gates of the Central Plains was constantly talked about.
In order to attack them, you would have to be at least the Three Schools.
It was surprising that the two places joined forces to attack.
‘No, rather, that is reasonable.’
From the perspective of the three schools, which are facing a war with the martial arts in the central region, it is necessary to prevent unnecessary power leaks. Nevertheless, if there is a reason to eliminate Bingungung, it makes sense to join forces and push through with overwhelming firepower.
‘How far are you going to touch me?’
Kang Liang felt fed up with the Sangyo’s mad acts of destruction.
Right now, the Jungwon martial arts base was extremely vast. They weren’t just trying to take over this continent, they were also trying to devour the world outside the continent.
Mo Yong-woo asked.
“Do you know the enemies’ intentions?”
Hatsun tilted her head.
“They invaded and fought. They are not afraid of death, but rather than become their playthings, they escape and plan for the future. “That was it.”
“After listening carefully, it seems that the palace lord believes that their purpose is not simple destruction.”
“Of course. Although this palace is a closed group, we are not stupid. Although it is very far away, it is not crazy enough to not look into enemies that could pose a threat to the main palace.”
“So you’ve learned about the Three Religions.”
“It’s been like that for hundreds of years. I don’t know much. However, they knew that if they joined forces, no country or organization would be able to handle it. “I also know that they are crazy people who treat those who are not of the same sect as worse than slaves or worse than insects.”
Hatsun’s eyes deepened.
“Preparations for that have been ongoing. And I consistently failed.”
“Why did you fail?”
“There is no obligation to tell outsiders that. However, if you have seen and experienced the world, you would know that things do not always go as planned.”
It was completely understandable. It was understandable, but there were still many questions.
‘at last.’
There is a limit to what you can find out even if you have a conversation here and in this state.
Moreover, the military power of the Ice Palace gathered here was absolutely formidable. Even if the palace lord alone goes on a rampage right now, the two elite black and white troops, including Mo Yong-woo and Kang Ryang, will suffer a crushing blow.
Mo Yong-woo bowed his head.
“You said something that could be sensitive from Bingung’s point of view. Thank you.”
“You guys are too sorry and too grateful. “I understand everything else, but that attitude is really hard to understand.”
“If you’re going to settle down in the midfield even for a while, shouldn’t you get used to our attitude?”
Mojaseon’s eyes sparkled.
“Are you saying you won’t touch us?”
“Unfortunately, that is not possible.”
Mo Yong-woo’s answer was clear and concise.
Saaaaagh.
A bitter chill rose from the bodies of the Bingungung people.
Kang Ryang’s eyes wavered.
‘A plague.’
The chill that soared for an instant was carried by the wind, and the resolute pressure was incredible. I almost thought that if a fight broke out, I would really see blood.
Hatsun raised her hand.
Huh.
At the same time, the momentum of the Bingungung people disappeared as if washed away.
The expression of momentum was free. Although the individuals were strong, their organizational strength, which was close to military discipline, was impressive.
Should I say that it is similar to Dangga? Absolute loyalty and trust toward the leader seemed to be more than party values.
“Are you going to touch me?”
“To be precise, I have a suggestion.”
“I’m listening.”
“If it weren’t for wartime, we wouldn’t have been involved in whether Bingung settled in the midfield or not. Of course, informants would have been brought in to find out what the intention was, but even though there was tension, there would not have been a sharp confrontation.”
“Is it different now?”
“As you know, we are preparing for war against the Three Religions. “The palace lord said that he came here after fighting against the three religions, but we cannot just believe it because we did not see it in person.”
“That’s a valid opinion.”
“Thank you for your understanding. Therefore, if Binggung also wants comfortable housing without any problems, I think it would be a good idea to have a conversation with the representatives of Moorim that you mentioned earlier.”
“You mean the master of the Murim Alliance and the master of the Black Blade Alliance?”
“That’s right. “No matter which of the two you talk to, we will be able to treat Binggung as a fellow continenter or as an antagonist, depending on your wishes.”
Mojaseon’s smile became a little clearer.
“I understand your situation. “We would have done the same.”
“thank you.”
“good night. “I accept your offer.”
Mo Yong-woo bowed his head without saying a word.
“Which place do you want?”
“You mean you have to choose between black and white.”
“That’s right.”
“I will go to both places.”
“yes?”
“I am doing this because I understand and acknowledge what you are saying. “If we want to gain your trust, it would be good for you to show both black and white our intentions.”
Mo Yong-woo smiled.
“I just want to thank you for your concern. Then, because of the distance, the Murim League comes first… … .”
“Did you say it was untitled in black and white?”
“… … ?”
“It is a name not heard in the land of the North Sea. “On the tenth day after moving south, I heard that a legendary figure had appeared on the continent and was uniting the world.”
“It cannot be seen as true unity, but it is true that he is a great person. If it weren’t for him, the Three Religions would have invaded the continent long ago, and many people would have suffered unjust deaths.”
Mo Yong-woo’s eyes became faint.
“He truly deserves to be called a hero of the continent.”
“I want to meet him. Since I am the person who represents Bingunggung, wouldn’t it be quicker to meet someone who represents the continent?”
He was clearly a person with little knowledge about the Jungwon martial arts world.
But she wasn’t entirely wrong.
“Are you okay?”
“why? “Is Black and White Untitled an eccentric person?”
Kang Yang muttered softly.
“Sometimes it’s fucking true.”
Mo Yong-woo shook his head.
“The Lord of the Black Emperor, the master of the Black and White Wu Emperor and the Black Dao Alliance, is a man with a clear enemy and who loves truth. What I mean is, from the palace lord’s point of view, he came into an unknown world, and he asked if it would be okay to divide the troops.”
“Don’t worry. Woogungju and Bingungungin are strong. Although she was defeated by that nameless swordsman, if she were willing to die, Murimmaeng would also have several of her pillar roots blown away.”
“okay.”
“I didn’t come here because I was afraid of defeat and death. I came because, as a human being, I could not bear not being able to die or live. and… … .”
“… … .”
“At least in my eyes, you are indeed a trustworthy person, even if your words are long-winded. “If such a person is the minor master of the Murim Alliance, I think it would be okay to leave my family in charge of him for a while.”
Mo Yong-woo took the lead.
“We will guarantee absolute safety in the Murim Alliance.”
Mojaseon looked at Kangryang.
Kangryang, who was scratching his head, cleared his throat.
“Let’s go, senior.”
“senior?”
“If you are old enough, you are all senior.”
Hatsun shook her head.
“These people really don’t understand.”
