Episode 250
Time of Resurrection (6)
“I see.”
Mo Yong smiled bitterly.
“It was to get involved in the Murim Lord election… that was it.”
Surprisingly, Yangcheon obediently answered Moyonggun’s questions.
And seeing Yangcheon like that, Moyonggun couldn’t help but feel an even greater burden.
‘Now there is nothing to hesitate about.’
The Mukryongbu was an organization that had not yet revealed itself to the world.
Now, it was all in vain, but at least it wasn’t a situation that was completely impossible to resolve. In that case, Yangcheon also needed to be approached more cautiously.
But Yang Cheon didn’t do that.
He was extremely angry and wanted the truth. That’s why I came here in person, risking all my efforts being in vain.
And it proved one chilling fact.
‘I could die.’
The moment Moyong realized that difficult-to-avoid reality, he felt his back becoming wet.
I had been running my whole life to become the best, and in fact, the best position was right in front of me. There were many obstacles, but I was steadily building up the numbers to defeat them.
But all of that is in danger of going to waste.
“This is truly a bold and dangerous tactic. “You tried to use a tactic that was literally no different from gambling.”
“Now tell me.”
Yang Chen lifted his chin.
“Why did you attack the headquarters? Given the circumstances, it seems like you already knew about the existence of the headquarters, but how much did you know? What did you hope to achieve by messing with us? “I’m sure you didn’t think someone like Mo Yong-se could handle the headquarters, right?”
It was an extremely arrogant tone of voice.
Prince Moyong shook his head.
“The power of the main family is said to be the greatest among the six generations. However, even if only half of the power of the Mukryongbu that I have researched is true, it would be difficult for the main family to handle the Mukryongbu.”
Yang Chen’s eyes sparkled.
Prince Moyong now said, ‘This is the Mukryongbu that I investigated.’ This meant that the Murim Alliance may not be aware of the existence of the Mukryongbu.
“And yet you touched me? “Why?”
For a moment, Prince Moyong almost mentioned the existence of Yeonhojeong without even realizing it.
‘A weak guy.’
He internally gritted his teeth at Yeon Ho-jeong.
Telling Yeon Ho-jeong’s true identity here and now is the worst of all handshakes. In a short period of time, Yeon Ho-jeong gained the trust of Yang Cheon and further achieved the feat of assuming the central position of the Mukryongbu.
In other words, he completely deceived Yang Cheon. In the meantime, if the truth were revealed now, would Yang Cheon be grateful? Rather, his anger exploded and he would kill himself first, strike Mo Yong Sega, and then declare war on the Murim Alliance.
At least that would be the case if it were you. If it’s an unavoidable fight, you have to at least reduce the enemy’s strength.
‘You must never let anyone know that this was a mission of the Murim Alliance.’
I didn’t intend to do that in the first place, but it really looks like I can’t even remove it. Killing the head of the intelligence department and blowing up the entrance to the Mukryongbu must be entirely of one’s own will.
It was truly an incredible situation.
‘Did he see this far?’
Even though I thought it couldn’t be possible, a part of me also thought that it could be possible.
‘Scary guy.’
Prince Moyong calmly opened his mouth.
“It is unintentional, similar to carelessness.”
“Do you have similar intentions as mine?”
“exactly.”
“Explain.”
“You sent the head of the intelligence department instead of the vice president, right? “When I talked to him, he wasn’t your average, murderous guy.”
Yang Chen’s face was noticeably distorted.
I tried not to think about it, but Jeong’s face kept coming to mind.
Jamryong’s face has a confident expression, yet is cautious and has a keen eye.
“Because…?”
“But I didn’t know that Buju was someone he cared about. To be honest, it didn’t really matter.”
“what?”
“Buju broke his promise. In front of the name of the Thirteenth Place of Seongcheon, the title of head of the Moyong family is bound to fade, but I am also the owner of a family and the leader of the Murim Alliance. “It’s bound to be unpleasant.”
Yang Chen’s eyes trembled.
“Did they kill the Headquarters Intelligence Director just for that reason?”
“He was the one who poured oil on the burning house.”
“…?!”
“It is clear that he is an outstanding talent, but he is still young. The muzzle is not maintained well. “If you showed up at a meeting between the heads of two groups without any contact, you should have apologized first, but instead you provoked them?”
Mo Yong-gun’s eyes became cold.
In fact, when I thought of Yeonhojeong, I couldn’t control my boiling emotions.
“Not only me, but anyone else would have pulled out a sword.”
Yang Chen closed his eyes.
‘Hey.’
It didn’t seem like Moyong was lying. I wouldn’t lie if I made a mistake and could end up dead.
Actually, listening to Moyong’s words made me understand.
‘How could such a delicate person make such a mistake?’
Jeong was a man who knew his own politics. However, the tendency itself was focused on strength rather than softness. As Moyong said, it is possible to make mistakes.
Perhaps Jeong lost his precious life because of that one mistake.
‘If you were going to go in such vain, you would have rather not come to my side.’
Flash!
Yang Chen opened his eyes.
Moyong-gun had to experience a chill in his stomach as he saw those extremely sharp eyes.
“Is it because you were angry that you bombed the entrance to the headquarters?”
“No way. I told you, right? “It’s a similar reason to Buju.”
“what?”
Mo Yong smiled coldly.
“I wanted to see how it turned out.”
“…?!”
“I didn’t know that the Vice Lord would come in person.”
Yang Chen laughed.
“They blew up the entrance to the headquarters just to see my reaction? “Are you asking me to believe that now?”
“If it wasn’t for that, would there be any need to touch the Ink Dragon Club? “If I had intended to destroy the Mukryongbu with other words, I would have prepared more secretly and buried them all alive at once.”
This time, it was Yangcheon’s turn to get angry.
‘This guy is serious.’
Really, I couldn’t help but acknowledge one distribution.
‘You have no hesitation in saying that you would have buried the headquarters alive in front of Yangcheon.’
He recalled his conversation with White Paper.
‘If he had known of our existence, he wouldn’t have taken out his troops and blown up the entrance.’
The white paper clearly said so.
And Yangcheon also agreed with those words. If I had intended to touch it properly, I would have done so and attacked it. If not, I would not have touched it at all.
In other words, there is a high probability that the Murim Alliance is unaware of the existence of the Mukryongbu. At the same time, Prince Moyong wants something from the Mukryongbu.
If you think about it, didn’t you come here yourself to confirm that very thing?
Moyong-gun quenched his appetite.
“The reason young boys play cruel pranks on girls is because they want attention. “It’s a bit of an embarrassing analogy, but what I did was similar.”
“….”
“And I am now seeing the full effect. “It is truly an honor for the Vice Lord to come visit us in person.”
“Whatever the reason, we cannot sit idly by and ignore what was done to our headquarters. In addition, I killed the head of headquarters’ intelligence department and three members of the Chinese zodiac.”
Yang Cheon’s face looked lifeless.
“Now tell me why I shouldn’t kill you.”
At that moment, Moyong-gun was inwardly delighted.
‘it’s okay.’
Why not kill it?
There is no need to say such things in the current situation. If Yang Chen was truly angry, he would have launched an attack right away.
In other words, Yangcheon is giving himself a chance now.
It was a word that confirmed that it was possible to start a transaction with a chance to return home safely.
My pride was hurt, but now was not the time to think about such things. On the contrary, it is a situation that can be a blessing in disguise.
Prince Moyong spoke calmly.
“Whatever the reason, just as many of the subordinates under Buju died, so did many of the warriors of the main family.”
“There is no comparison. The men you killed were talented people who held important positions at headquarters. In comparison, what you lost was only a diploma.”
“Then wouldn’t it be okay to adjust the weights a bit?”
“Weigh?”
“If both sides have something to lose, I think it’s better to end the emotional fight here. On the contrary, I think our relationship can become stronger through this fight. What do you think about Carelessness?”
Yang Chen’s eyes lit up.
“What do you mean?”
“exactly. “I will agree to the deal I originally wanted to make.”
“…!”
“Please intervene in the presidential election that will be held next year. So, if you become my leader, I will properly push the Mukryongbu from behind.”
Yang Chen smiled coldly.
“They say they are adjusting the weight, but aren’t they actually asking us to take one more loss?”
“It was unreasonable for the vice-lord to intervene in the election in the first place. It’s a gamble. But I am saying that I am willing to take the gamble and risk my life.”
“…!”
“I will replace the lives of the men you lost with my own. And depending on how I use my life, it could be of great help to the Mukryongbu.”
“….”
“Of course, that’s not all. A transaction must be certain. If you agree to this transaction…”
Prince Moyong’s eyes deepened.
‘I’m sorry.’
For now, this was the only way.
‘It may be a big shock, but this can also serve as a foundation for your growth. If you make this one sacrifice, I will use you greatly in my future.’
He truly made up his mind to do so.
“…I will send my daughter to Buju.”
For a moment, Yang Chen was surprised.
“Are you going to send your daughter away?”
“Of course, you shouldn’t treat my daughter as if you were going to catch her. “Although he is still young and lacks experience, he is a child who knows how to be quite cunning.”
“…!”
“Depending on how you handle it, it could be of great help to the Mukryongbu. “Please treat me well.”
Yang Chen’s eyes twitched.
It was revealed that the black sheep sent by Saeumgyo was a traitor. In many ways, it was difficult to believe that his trading partner would send someone to him.
However, if it is blood relatives, it is a different story.
“Are you going to send your daughter hostage to take your life?”
Prince Moyong spoke in a cheerful tone.
“I hope people see me as someone who knows how to make such unconventional moves. Also, if it were my daughter’s life, wouldn’t it be of some help in balancing the weight?”
Moyonggun’s eyes blazed like flames.
His eyes, filled with desire, ambition, and excitement, were shining so brilliantly that even Yang Heaven in the world felt burdened to face them.
“Now what are you going to do? Will you make up for what you lost with this one transaction? Or will you kill me and prepare for battle with the Murim Alliance?”

“Puhaaaaa!”
As soon as he crossed the Yangtze River in central Hubei Province, Full Sang let out a deep breath.
“Wow, the air is different.”
Yeon Ho-jeong nodded.
“I think it’s okay to forget about the existence of the pursuer now. Now that we have crossed the Yangtze River, not only the Mukryongbu but also any sect from the Black Island will not be able to chase us.”
He looked around at everyone.
“Thank you for your hard work.”
Everyone in the group breathed a sigh of relief. Yeon Ho-jeong says yes, so you can really put your mind at ease now.
Paeyul grumbled.
“From next time, call me when you go somewhere hot. “I thought I was going to die from frustration.”
“All right.”
Tang Sang-ah shook his head.
“It’s better to fight against an enemy that you can’t handle. Infiltration warfare is really difficult.”
“It’s like that.”
Zhuge Zhenyan quietly asked.
“By the way, Jeong.”
“say.”
“We are ourselves. What happened to the commander? Are you able to get out safely?”
“I don’t know.”
Yeon Ho-jeong looked south.
A meaningful light appeared in his cool, sunken eyes.
“…If he comes back alive and well, there must be a good reason.”
