Seeds of Conflict (8)
“You’ve lost some weight.”
These were the father’s first lines after seeing his son for a long time.
“sorry.”
That was the first line of the shameless son.
“I should be sorry.”
Yeonwi said with a smile.
“Anyway, you b*stard, why didn’t you at least give me a hint in advance? “Of course, I had in mind the possibility of you converting to Black Island, but I never thought you would actually commit it.”
“….”
“Don’t you get treated poorly there?”
“Yes, you are good.”
“Well, if Manager Yang had eyes, he wouldn’t treat someone like you who’s just starting out poorly. “If you don’t want to make a fuss, you have to treat him well.”
“….”
“It looks like you were very busy. “The more you do that, the more you need to eat.”
“I’ll keep that in mind.”
“Also, no matter how busy you are, you should not violate the minimum sleep time. No matter how great a person has reached, he or she is still human. “Health is something you must take care of while you are young.”
“Yes, I understand.”
“okay.”
Even though they said they would scold Yeon Wi, they could not reprimand Yeon Ho Jeong in any way.
How can you reprimand? The status of the Yeon family was somewhat tarnished due to the decisions made by Yeon Ho-jeong, but he had never cared about the family’s fortune throughout his life.
Rather, Yeonhojeong’s judgment was for the good of the world. In fact, after Yeon Ho-jeong became the successor to the Mukryongbu, public opinion worrying about provocations or surprise attacks by the Mukryongbu decreased noticeably.
It was all my son’s fault. I was disappointed that they didn’t tell me in advance, but that happens sometimes when you’re doing great work.
Yeonwi tapped Yeonhojeong on the shoulder.
“As your position is such that it will be difficult to see you often within the group. Still, whenever you have time, stop by and have a cup of tea.”
“Of course you should.”
“Okay, that’s it.”
The somewhat tense atmosphere was relaxed.
Yeon Ji-pyeong, who was looking at Yeon Ho-jeong with trembling eyes, finally opened her mouth.
“older brother.”
“It’s been a while since I last saw you.”
Yeon Ho-jeong’s face was filled with joy and surprise when he saw his younger brother.
“I knew it would grow a lot, but I didn’t know it would get this big.”
“You’ve been so indifferent so far.”
“Okay, I’m sorry.”
“Unlike my father, I do not have any position. “I don’t know when he will leave, so I will stick with you like a leech and harass you while you are in the prison.”
“haha.”
Yeon Ho-jeong, who burst out laughing, shook his head.
“Anyway, what happened to your martial arts skills?”
“yes?”
“I actually thought you would have broken through Martial Arts by now.”
Yeon Ji-pyeong smiled as if embarrassed.
“Because I don’t have as much talent as you.”
“That’s ridiculous. “In terms of talent, there are not many people in the world today who can compare to you.”
“It’s because I’m lacking a lot.”
“No, not at all.”
Yeon Ho-jeong looked at Yeon Wi and asked.
“This guy is completely identical to his father?”
“Do you think so too?”
“yes.”
Yeon Ho-jeong’s face became strange.
“The level he has achieved is roughly on par with that of King Mujong, but the sword energy that harmonizes with his entire body is almost comparable to that of Senior Paeyul or Brother Moyong.”
His understanding of the sword is on a different level from that of his peers.
If Yeon Ji-pyeong had penetrated Mujong, I would have been surprised, even if I had guessed it. He must have been full of praise for having brought his genius sense into full bloom.
However, instead of running faster, Yeon Ji-pyeong focused on improving herself. And the effort came back as a powerful sword that was beyond arduous.
Although it wasn’t noticeable, Yeon Ho-jeong was truly surprised.
“I have everything I can take in my arms, so as long as I break through the Mujong, it will be truly something to see.”
Yeon Ji-pyeong scratched his head as if embarrassed.
It was a bit awkward since I hadn’t seen him in such a long time. However, his older brother, who had become a top player in the powerhouse, was truly impressed by his growth.
I was embarrassed and proud of myself. I felt fortunate that my efforts so far were not in vain, but I also felt determined to improve even more.
“by the way.”
Yeon Ho-jeong glanced out the window.
“Are you a watcher?”
“This is the Fire Dragon. “Thanks to your wonderful choice, warriors were attached to keep an eye on us.”
Yeon Ho-jeong cleared his throat.
Yeonwi said with a smile.
“They are grateful people who take care of all sorts of things. “I actually feel sorry because the Zhuge army gave it to me on purpose.”
“I see you are often indebted to the soldier.”
It was Yeon Ho-jeong who could see through Zhuge Li’s intentions right away. Perhaps his appointment of a watchdog was a measure to quell the reckless and malicious public opinion toward Yeonga.
“And…”
We wanted to talk about various things, but Yeonwi told us about the biggest incident first.
“Did you hear about the head of the Moyong family?”
“I haven’t heard it yet… but now that I think about it, I haven’t seen the face of the Moyong family yet. “I heard you came out of a closed building.”
“Hmm, I guess Master Moyong didn’t say anything either.”
“yes. What’s going on?”
Yeonwi briefly explained what had happened.
Yeon Ho-jeong’s eyes widened.
“Did he really do that?”
“okay.”
“….”
Yeon Ho-jeong couldn’t believe it.
People change. But there are some things that never change.
Yeon Ho-jeong thought that the only desire that would not change even after Prince Moyong died was to become the Murim lord, which he would carry with him for the rest of his life.
But you shook everything and headed to Gangseo?
“We received information that some kind of organization is gathering there. “I was going to meet you today and tell you about that, but the Murim Alliance already knew about it.”
“To be exact, it was something Hugai sharply captured. “I didn’t know that that group had ties to the head of the Moyong family.”
“It’s the Gangseo Union….”
As I guessed, it was a union of small and medium-sized factions.
However, I never thought that the organization would be Moyonggun’s political funds and supporters.
‘It’s scary as expected.’
If we hadn’t formed an alliance, we wouldn’t have known until the end. It was such meticulous personnel management.
‘Precise is also precise.’
Yeon Ho-jeong’s eyes were greatly shaken as he looked up at the ceiling.
‘Have you really changed?’
A time with myself that was painful enough to remind me of suicide.
Although it was only closed for a few months, the change in Moyong-gun facing its whole self was more meaningful than the closure of the building for decades.
‘Honestly, it’s hard to believe.’
Because I knew that Prince Moyong’s desire would not go away easily, and because I knew how terrifying his goal-oriented life was, I didn’t think I could trust him unless I saw it with my own eyes.
but.
‘I’m not the type of person who speaks weakly in front of others.’
Just by bowing his head and talking about his weakness and past mistakes, you can see how much Mo Yong has changed.
‘Whatever it is, it’s much scarier than before.’
If it is not sincere, Moyong-gun will be so scared that he will put aside his stiff pride and catch the other person off guard.
And if you are sincere.
If he really changed himself, Moyong would also achieve tremendous growth. Because a master can jump up dozens of stairs with just one enlightenment.
The growth and development is scary.
‘If you have truly changed the way you see the world, everyone else will point fingers at you, but I will welcome you with open arms. However, if your appearance was just a ruse to achieve your goal…’
I will show you hell.
‘but.’
Yeon Ho-jeong closed his eyes.
‘Mr. Moyong is a smart person. ‘You’ll know there’s no need to act like this.’
Actually, the answer has been found.
The answer came, but even so, I couldn’t easily believe it. This was because he had a very conflicted relationship with Prince Moyong.
‘If it had really changed… it would have been very painful.’
Yang Cheon personally persuaded her to give up her dream. Mr. Moyong tries to change himself and start again from the bottom.
Yeon Ho-jeong felt bitter.
No matter how great their dreams are, protecting my land must come first. However, he felt strange knowing that he was the one who directly or indirectly destroyed the dreams of the two giants.
‘Did I destroy other people’s future for my own goal?’
His actions were justified for the public good and purpose.
But
I feel a little… no, a lot of regret.
Yeonwi said while looking at Yeonhojeong who was confused for some reason.
“I think Moyong Gaju did her best in the circumstances she was given.”
“….”
“As humans live, they exchange influence with countless others. “There is no need to be too bitter.”
He was the one who could read his son’s thoughts like a ghost.
Yeon Ho-jeong quenched his appetite.
“Why do I feel like drinking again today?”
“Hold on for today. “Shouldn’t we meet with the military later?”
“Yes, I know. In fact, we should prepare now, not later.”
“preparation?”
“About the election of the Murim Lord.”
Yeonwi’s face hardened slightly.
“I trust you more than anyone else, but you’d better be careful when it comes to electing a leader.”
“Yes, if you do it wrong, it could lead to interference in internal affairs.”
“yes. “You know very well.”
“We will meet privately and just talk about this and that. In the end, the Murim Lord must elect someone who everyone can understand, so there is nothing I can do about it if I step forward.”
“Now that you say that, I can rest assured.”
“yes.”
After finishing the heavy talk, Yeon Ho-jeong looked around again.
“Anyway, where is your daughter?”
“I heard it was closed.”
“Closed?”
“Yes, I trained harder than anyone else. “It wouldn’t be surprising if we surpassed Mujong right now.”
“okay.”
Yeonhojeong silent monument Gangryang Jinyang.
Mo Yong-woo, Dang Sang-ah, Nam Gung-pyo, etc.
In the past few years, talented people have raised their level through unimaginable efforts. Of course, there are less than a handful of geniuses in the wide world, but if you look at them one by one, they are by no means a small number.
It’s the intersection of generations.
In previous generations, there were geniuses of similar age who broke through martial arts. And the generation before them was also the same.
Yeonhojeong was finally able to feel it. This era, the world of Moorim, is going through another period of transition.
At this time, the old era’s masters are retiring one by one and the new era’s leading figures are beginning to reveal their presence.
Yeon Ho-jeong sincerely hoped that this turbulent era would not be completely destroyed by the war between the three religions.
“Oh and father.”
“okay.”
“Well… well, anyway, I have a sister, right?”
Yeonwi’s eyes sparkled.
“You mean Yang Buju’s disciple?”
“That’s right. If you look at the time of initiation, it is my sister-in-law, and since I am a special case, the gentleman said that he would give me preferential treatment by being executed first. “I think the picture will be prettier that way.”
“He must be a good person.”
“I’m not sure about that.”
“But why him?”
“I was given some work to do on my way back. “I will arrive soon, so I would like you to stay here.”
“Not Palseonggak?”
“yes.”
“Of course it doesn’t matter to me, but is there any other reason?”
“That’s…”
Yeon Ho-jeong, who was about to say something, looked out the window in shock.
“Why are you doing that?”
“…Hmm.”
A smile spread across Yeon Ho-jeong’s face.
“It’s good that the Murim League is good. Good connections keep coming together.”
“hmm?”
After a while, surprise appeared on Yeonwi and Yeon Jipyeong’s faces.
“Is it there?”
It was the return of the party.
