Episode 72
Wonsu (怨讐) and Wonsu (原水) (2)
“Commander. “It is a report that Yeonhojeong is heading south after contacting and annihilating the Blue Party!”
“okay?”
Myungwoosan clenched his fists.
‘done.’
The Blue Party was nothing more than bait, so to speak.
Given the nature of Yeon Ho-jeong that had been reported so far, it seemed unlikely that he would be easily captured. It was also a good thing if he was escorted to the famous house without a fight.
In the end, people would have seen Yeon Ho-jeong’s ruthless side. It was the moment when the rumor became truth.
That’s it. Myeong Woo-san, who had turned Yeon Ho-jeong into a serious criminal with just one Blue Party, did not intend to expend any more troops.
“Contact the three brothers. Fight in a crowded place. “We must capture Yeonhojeong with overwhelming force.”
“All right.”
Myeongwoosan was finally able to take a breather.
‘It’s barely over.’
When I think about it, it was really absurd.
Yeon Ho-jeong was a great guy. With martial arts beyond imagination, combat power beyond imagination, and response beyond imagination, the famous family was taken aback.
But when I thought about it more, it seemed that the entire Myeong family was not in trouble only because of Yeonhojeong. The main axis was Yeonho-jeong, but it occurred to me that something else was eating away at Myeong-ga’s flesh.
I don’t know what that is. An inexplicable feeling of discomfort keeps stimulating my brain.
‘…Well, it doesn’t matter now.’
I will never know about Myeongwu Mountain for the rest of my life. That it is fate.
Yeon Ho-jeong made the wheel of fate turn faster through his own efforts and sacrifices. I just wanted to destroy it with my own hands before it collapsed on its own.
The Ming Wu Mountain family did not know that.
“by the way.”
After reviewing several documents, Myungwoosan was lost in thought.
“It’s too fast.”
It was Myeong-ga who spread the rumor that Yeon Ho-jeong was the suspect in an unsolved crime in Jiangsu Province.
It was information manipulation to gain justification. It was all the work of the famous family that took steps to spread the rumor quickly.
But it was too fast.
It would have taken five days at the earliest for the rumor to spread, but the information that broke out in the vicinity of Jeongju and Gaebong spread throughout Hanam in three days.
Myeongwoosan was taken aback by the incredible speed. Myeongcheon scolded him for what was the problem, but it always became a problem when something unintended happened.
‘Is it really open? ‘That can’t be possible.’
If the opening fueled the rumor, the entire Hanam area would be in an uproar within three days.
The question was why. Openness has helped Yeonhojeong so far. If the intention was to dispel the rumor, there would be no reason to inflate it.
Therefore, the probability of it being open is low.
Then who is it?
“…Okay, just like the matriarch said, let’s skip the trivial things. “Because that’s not important right now.”
Wrong.
He should have kept asking about that until the end. Therefore, we had to constantly dig into the organization that inflated the rumor and why it was inflated.
Of course, by the time he finds out, the situation will have already gotten out of control.
* * *
Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu.
As he walked through Gwando, Yeon Ho-jeong thought about his martial arts skills.
‘Byeoknajingyeol has reached the eight-star level.’
Byeoknajingyeol, who had stayed in Yukseong before leaving the family, has now grown two levels.
I already know everything about Byeokna Jin-gyeol. Since it is a process of attaching the realization accepted in your head to your body, you are bound to achieve it faster than others.
Even so, it wasn’t enough to grow two levels in that short a time. If I had only learned Byeoknajingyeol, I would have been snooping around the Chilseong (七成) by now.
‘It’s thanks to Sashinmu.’
Baekhogi Hyeonmugi.
Thanks to the two energies, the total amount of energy received by the body increased. At the same time, it expelled turbidity at every moment to keep the body in optimal condition.
The airway, which was like a stream, became wide like a river. Then the quantity and quality of flowing energy increased.
A constant virtuous cycle. Thanks to this, the achievements of Byeoknajingyeol went on a steep upward curve.
Ugh. Wooooow.
With each step, light blue energy rose like smoke from the soles of my feet.
It was a mysterious sight. It was to control the atmosphere, but at the same time, he was practicing martial arts.
Byeoklajingi increases the density of the outer wall of the Danjeon.
‘Eight stars… that’s not enough.’
It was a quick achievement, but I still feel like it’s not enough.
This is because you never know what kind of expert will emerge from a famous family. If the supreme master master came out, it would be difficult to block the world’s era.
‘Well, if you think about it that way, it doesn’t make sense that you’re heading towards a famous family.’
Myeongga is the best in the world, both in name and reality. There must have been an incalculable number of masters.
‘Even if I couldn’t do it, I should have raised it to nine castles. ‘I wish I could upload it now.’
impossible. For now.
Of course, there is one way to immediately increase the achievement of Byeoknajingi.
‘If only I could summon one more of the remaining two of the Four Gods’ energy…’
He called out Hyeonmu and opened the White Tiger.
Now there is no need to obtain another Shinigami in the battle of life and death. If you balance the White Tiger and the Hyeonmugi and increase their size endlessly, you will be able to summon another Shinigami at some point.
But that too is short on time.
In the end, Byeoknajingyeol has to end in this state where he is eight years old.
‘If only I could summon one of the remaining two in this fight.’
Yeon Ho-jeong’s eyes lit up.
‘Which should I choose between Suzaku (朱雀) and Blue Dragon (靑龍)?’
No matter what you get, your body and overall martial arts will greatly improve.
Moreover, calling it out is not everything. Even if you have all the four divine energies, endless training is required. Like Byeokna Jin-gyeol, the Sashingi was an energy that deepened without limits and did not divide achievements.
‘In other words, after completing Byeokna Jingyeol, you have to learn about the other five great gods. If you look at it that way, it’s a blue dragon… rather than a Suzaku
.
Once you acquire the blue dragon energy, not only your body but also the new skills you are learning will be completely transformed. The characteristics of the Blue Dragon itself were the same, and it would be even more so after obtaining the White Tiger, which is the opposite of the Blue Dragon.
‘Is that really possible?’
Yeon Ho-jeong quenched his appetite.
‘First, let’s use what we have well.’
Hyeonmugi, which was brought in first, grew greatly through the interaction with Byeoklajin result.
On the other hand, Baekhogi is still far away. Although it was fully established due to the training and life-or-death experience, it was only a fifth of the level compared to the Hyeonmugi.
Start with the white tiger. That’s the order.
“Your Majesty.”
Yeon Ho-jeong looked back.
It was a new mother.
“why?”
“Are you okay with it like this?”
There isn’t much left until the famous house. After just half a day, we will enter the realm of the famous family.
Yeon Ho-jeong smiled.
“why? “Are you nervous?”
“of course.”
One of Shinmo’s countless strengths was honesty. He also knew when it was okay to be honest.
“They were desperate to catch you, Grand Duke. Nevertheless, the reason we sent the Blue Party was….”
“It was to make the rumors true. “The intention is to confirm it in front of everyone.”
“I think so too.”
A cool anticipation emanated from Shinmo’s eyes.
“Now we won’t waste our troops. I will send you the real thing. “I will not let you enter the famous family, but will send a master with the intention of leading you.”
“I think the same thing.”
Shinmo sighed inwardly.
I know everything. This rough, reckless, yet wise archduke was able to see clearly his opponent’s moves.
Nevertheless, going to a famous place means having faith. However, as a new mother who claimed to be the archduke’s bodyguard, she could not help but be worried.
Yeon Ho-jeong said as if he was throwing it away.
“If you’re really that worried, why don’t you bring out your hidden strength?”
At that moment, Shinmo’s eyes widened.
“yes?”
“Isn’t it? “It seems like a tremendous amount of power has been sealed away?”
Shinmo was surprised.
“How did you know that?”
“How do you know? “I know because I see it.”
“Are you saying you saw that?”
“I never felt it before. “It was only when I saw you this time that I realized it.”
Shinmo’s face, which was full of surprise, gradually revealed admiration.
“You are amazing, Grand Duke. “No one has ever seen this power before.”
“okay?”
“That’s right.”
Yeon Ho-jeong tilted his head.
“But that power is very familiar. “Is this a new technique from the main family?”
“That’s right. “The head of the family taught this ugly guy the dragon martial arts.”
This time, surprise appeared on Yeon Ho-jeong’s face.
“Yongpogi?”
“yes.”
Yongpo Shingong was one of Yeonga’s five major gods.
Among the five major martial arts, the most stable one was Byeokna Jingyeol and the straightest and sharpest one was Geomgeuksagi, while Yongpo Shingong was considered the best martial arts in terms of the destructive power of Balgyeong.
Yeon Ho-jeong smiled faintly.
“If anything happens in the future, I can just hide behind Shin Daeju.”
“Oh no. Heavenly luck reached me and I was able to take the elixir, but if it wasn’t for the Yongpo Shingong, I would have been unable to control my energy and would have fallen into a demonic state. “It’s still not enough.”
“So you were hiding it. “I haven’t been able to control it properly yet.”
“That’s right.”
“Can we still open it?”
“It’s okay if it’s just for a little while.”
Yeon Ho-jeong nodded.
“Try to hide that power well. “There is no need to reveal your decisive move to the enemy.”
Shinmo’s expression hardened.
“All right.”
The Archduke seemed determined to see this to an end.
‘I guess I can’t stop it.’
This is a person who will do something once they say they will do it. Shinmo’s view of Yeonhojeong was like that.
In that case, there is no choice. I have no choice but to protect the Grand Duke, even if it means burying his bones here.
In that way, Yeon Ho-jeong and his party moved south without hesitation.
From time to time, people saw them and ran away in fright. This was because the rumors were much faster than their movement speed.
Yeon Ho-jeong was resolute. He did not react to people’s angry or fearful looks. I just went on my way.
‘The sun is setting.’
The sun began to set over the distant western ridge.
A red sunset illuminated the world. It was the color of warm emptiness.
Night is coming soon.
A night filled with cool winds and silence, filled with insidious murder.
‘….’
Just before entering the realm of the famous family.
‘…what.’
Yeon Ho-jeong felt a strange sense of déjà vu.
Something familiar came out in the blowing wind. It was both living and speculation.
“Your Majesty.”
“know.”
There was deep tension on Shinmo’s face.
“He is a great expert. That’s a whopping three.”
“Right.”
The other side of the distant road that you can’t see even if you concentrate your eyes.
There were three people leisurely walking from there. And behind those three people, there were three hundred warriors displaying a powerful military spirit that could not even be compared to that of the Blue Party.
Three super experts who appeared leading a combat unit military organization.
For a moment, Yeon Ho-jeong’s eyes wavered.
‘strong.’
The martial arts skills of those three are strong. It wasn’t just strong, it was surprisingly strong.
If it were a simple martial arts level, he was several steps higher than the current Yeonhojeong. There were three such experts, so that alone was an incredible feat.
But…
‘Why is it so familiar?’
What surprised Yeon Ho-jeong was not the strength of his opponent. Now that the Blue Party has been blown away, it is time for experts of that level to come.
The problem was their prayers.
As a master of a famous family, of course he would have learned the martial arts of a famous family.
I was familiar with the martial arts of that famous family. It was an energy I felt once.
‘When exactly?’
chuck.
Yeonhojeong’s steps stopped for the first time.
“Your Majesty?”
“….”
Huuuuung.
The wind was low.
Shin’s mother, who was looking at Yeon Ho-jeong with puzzled eyes, felt a shiver run down her spine.
Cheeeeeeeek!
Byeokrajingi gushes out from both feet that hit the floor.
But the charm wasn’t the same as usual. At this moment, the mysterious light blue Byeoknajingi became a terrible and evil blue madness, supporting Yeon Ho-jeong’s body.
Whiiiiing!!
A gust of wind began to blow around the low wind.
“omg!”
“Ugh!”
The entire response team took a few steps back.
Shinmo shouted in embarrassment.
“Your Majesty!”
Damn it! Damn it!
Following the blue madness and white storm, even a dark chill comes.
It was the dark and cool energy of the north. The energy of death blowing from the final destination of the world at the end of life filled Yeon Ho-jeong’s eyes.
Hehehe!
The roar of the Tiger King coming from somewhere in the west.
The ax containing both the White Tiger and the Hyeonmugi wriggled arbitrarily.
Byeoknajingyeol Baekhogi and Hyeonmugi.
Three divine energies of different textures arose simultaneously.
“…You can show up a little more slowly.”
My voice was trembling.
Is it fear or joy?
“I could have endured more. No, I could have endured it forever.”
Woooo!! Woooooo!!
The ax vibrated horribly. It was filled with a deep, murderous spirit, as if it was asking for someone to swing at it at any moment.
“I never thought we would meet so soon.”
Pupils filled with blue madness looked straight at the three masters in the lead.
Yeon Ho-jeong lived in the present, but his eyes were scanning the past.
‘father.’
My father blocked wave after wave of enemy attacks with his iron-clad sword.
And the leader of the strange sword that made my father’s body covered in blood.
‘Pyeong-ah.’
The younger brother avoided fighting with the enemy and chose to run away for the future of his family.
And the leader of the monster who broke his younger brother’s spine.
Furthermore, there is a huge spearhead who broke down the gate of a historic love house and attacked.
The whites of Yeonhojeong’s eyes became increasingly red.
Present and Past The only emotion that connects the past and the present.
It was Pacheon’s anger towards Marshal Cheolcheon.
Quang!
One step of the white tiger.
With that one step, Yeon Ho-jeong’s body disappeared on the spot.
Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwak!
The successive explosions receded at an alarming speed.
“What is it?”
The large middle-aged man in the lead looked into space in surprise.
The beast flew high into the sky after covering the long distance using only the white tiger reign.
Flash!
Is it the light of the setting sun or is it spraying blood red blood?
The Lord of Darkness, whose eyes filled with flames spread across the world, raised a ferocious giant soldier.
“Nice to meet you, friends.”
The ax fell on the top of the man’s head.
Wow! Wow!
