Episode 859
What is a Murim lord? (9)
Yeon Ho-jeong, who came to Pagungak, met his father and younger brother.
Yeon Ji-pyeong looked at Yeon Ho-jeong with envious eyes, and Yeon Wi was much calmer than expected.
Yeon Ho-jeong just said hello to the two people and went into the room he originally used.
Whether or not one has entered martial arts, it is important for a martial artist to take the time to make enlightenment his or her own.
Yeonwi and Yeonjipyeong never touched Yeonhojeong and never left Pagungak. It’s about protecting yourself in case something happens.
That wasn’t all. Since the surveillance on Yeonga had not yet been lifted, the dispatched Hwaryongdan members also indirectly played a similar role in protecting Yeonhojeong.
In the middle, Mukbi and Kangryang came. The Yeonwi allowed the two people to enter, but did not allow them to talk loudly.
Another day passed like that.
Sigh.
Yeon Ho-jeong came out of the room and appeared outside the building.
“Yeon Gongja.”
“older brother.”
Mukbi and Kangryang Yeonjipyeong stood up as if they were happy to see each other.
Yeon Ho-jeong said with a smile.
“You guys are here too.”
Mukbi asked first.
“are you okay?”
“of course. “It can’t be okay.”
Yeon Ho-jeong’s usual speaking tone was the same. Kang-ryang sighed in relief and then grumbled.
“Oh, the world is really unfair. What kind of merit did you accumulate in your past life that your development is still on an upward curve? “Do people without talent live in sorrow?”
If you knew what I went through in my past life, you would never say that.
Yeon Ho-jeong just smiled.
Yeonwi, who was sitting on a bench drinking tea, pointed across from her as if nothing had happened.
“I thought he would probably come out around now, so I prepared the car in advance. “I want you to quench your thirst.”
“yes.”
Yeonhojeong and Yeonwi sitting on a table.
The faces of the two father and son were very calm.
If his son had achieved great enlightenment and become stronger, he would have expressed joy, but Yeonwi showed no such sign.
Yeon Ho-jeong also seemed to think that such a father figure was natural.
Mukbi and Kangryang Yeonjipyeong also sat around the wide bench.
Yeon Ho-jeong was the first to open his mouth.
“Did you see it?”
It was a random comment.
Yeonwi nodded.
“It was visible. And I felt it.”
“You are amazing.”
“Hehe, there are a lot of things to be great about. “It’s just that my realization was a little different from others.”
“That’s not it.”
“hmm?”
Yeon Ho-jeong looked at Yeon Wi with deep eyes.
Eyes that are much deeper and more serene than before. It was like looking into the eyes of a seer.
“Now I understand. “How supreme is my father’s level.”
Mukbi and Kangryang’s eyes widened slightly.
It is clear that Yan Wei is a great power. He was even an unrivaled swordsman who had reached a level of swordsmanship that only a few of the masters of Seongcheon had realized.
If that were the case, it would not be an exaggeration to say that the whole world could be discussed. However, if we only look at the level achieved, Yeon Ho-jeong was overwhelming Yeon Wi. However, they still say things like that.
“I didn’t really understand it when I had only the Four Gods around me. “I just knew that he had reached the point of mastering the mind and sword, and I was impressed to see that my father’s extreme level of upper-level fighting was as good as that of the masters of Seongcheon.”
“Is that so?”
“But now I realize it. “That’s not everything.”
Yeon Ho-jeong continued calmly.
“The way you look at the world is different from ours.”
Yeonwi burst out laughing.
“Each person has a different way of looking at the world.”
Yeonwi knows that’s not what he meant. But what Yeonwi said was not wrong.
Being different also meant that I was no different from before. Even though my abilities have improved, I am no different from before, so it doesn’t mean much whether I hold a sword or a stick in my hand.
Yeonhojeong is Yeonhojeong and Yeonwi is Yeonwi.
Hwangryong is Hwangryong and Simgeom is Simgeom.
“Of all the amazing people I have met, the most extraordinary was definitely Geomseon Takmuja.”
“okay.”
“My father’s top-tier play is different, but he is comparable to Takmu-ja.”
“It’s an honor.”
“In terms of vastness, Takmuja may be superior, but in terms of depth, my father is even better. “Now I know it.”
Yeonwi shook his head.
“The size or depth of the top battle is not important, like a martial arts fight where the outcome cannot be known without actually fighting, even though the difference in numbers is large.”
“….”
“It’s important what you see, what you focus on, and what you aim for.”
“Yes, I know.”
I just wanted to say that my father’s spirit was so great that it was comparable to that of Tak Mu-ja.
Yeonwi asked.
“Is it enough to look back on martial arts to that extent?”
“If nothing else had happened, I would have looked back more. However, even if you do that, you will not achieve quick results. “I just try to go with the flow and move forward.”
“Is that so?”
“yes. “Because my martial arts is not going anywhere.”
A look of satisfaction appeared on Yeonwi’s face.
He was the one who felt the change in his son the most. Nevertheless, the reason we didn’t show it was because we had reached a point where we knew each other so well that we didn’t have to say anything.
However, I was proud to see my son honestly and honestly acknowledging himself without being embarrassed. There seemed to be no need to suppress that much.
“Looks like I have work to do. “Your eyes are focused on something other than martial arts.”
“Geomje Seonbae also said that.”
“He is an extraordinary person. “Regardless of whether it is a top battle or not, people who have reached the end in a field are different no matter what.”
“It looks like my father will soon go to a similar point as Geomje Seon-bae.”
“Hehe, I don’t know that.”
Yeon Ho-jeong drank tea.
It wasn’t a very luxurious car, but to him it was the most delicious car in the world.
“I will do my job and come back. “Let’s have dinner together today.”
“It’s good. “Let’s get together with the family for the first time in a while and have a drink.”
Yeonwi said while looking at Mukbi and Kangryang.
“Please also bring senior Baek Byeong-shin and a warrior named Jinyang. “If it’s someone Hojeong cares about, aren’t they also our family?”
Mukbi smiled.
“Yes, father.”
“It looks like Hojeong has something else to do, so let’s take a look at your martial arts skills in the meantime. Even at first glance, it doesn’t seem like he has grown normally.”
“yes!”
Yeon Ho-jeong smiled and stood up.
Yeon Ji-pyeong said.
“older brother.”
“Be sure to see your martial arts skills before dinner. “It’s hard to have time alone because things keep happening.”
“Good. “I wanted to tell you that too.”
“haha.”
Yeon Ho-jeong bowed his head towards Yeon Wi.
“I’ll be back.”
Yeonwi said calmly.
“Each person has their own circumstances. “Don’t push yourself too hard.”
“Do you know who I’m going to see?”
“You are putting aside the trivial things and looking at the fundamentals. “There is only one event that is most important in the Tanggeum Murim Alliance.”
“….”
“And there aren’t many people who are suitable for the position right now.”
“You are truly amazing.”
“Please come back.”
“yes.”
Just like that, Yeon Ho-jeong left Pagungak.
Yeon Ho-jeong left and Yeon Wi pushed the pyeongsang to the side.
“Shall we look at Via first?”
* * *
Yeon Ho-jeong headed straight to Museongjeon but soon stopped.
“….”
He took a deep breath and looked around, then changed direction again. It was the military department.
This time too, there were many people who looked sideways at him. The views were similar to those when I first came here as a small business owner.
But the eyes of real experts were different.
These people are very surprised when they see Yeonhojeong. Knowing that Yeon Ho-jeong was the one who gave off that strange and hard-to-disobey energy, they wanted to talk to him, but they couldn’t bear to approach him.
It was not because of his position as the minor lord of the Mukryongbu.
This is what their energy is feeling. The calm majesty that naturally emanates from Yeon Ho-jeong’s body.
And Yeonho also knew that.
‘I definitely need to trim it.’
I tried to take it slowly, but after seeing people’s reactions, I felt like I shouldn’t leave it like this. Starting tomorrow, I really need to spend some time refining my martial arts.
‘I just have to ask my brother for a favor.’
Makwon was an outstanding strongman who could freely use all weapons, not just a hundred weapons. In other words, he was the person who could most effectively give Yeon Ho-jeong what she needed.
Yeon Ho-jeong, who was walking with a resolve in his mind, finally saw the building of the Military Department.
After a while.
“Sir.”
“Hojeong, is that you?”
“yes.”
“Come in.”
When I opened the door and went in, there was Zhuge Li, Ambassador Gong Gong, and Seung Hyeon Jin-in drinking tea.
The three people greeted Yeon Ho-jeong with happy and surprised faces.
Yeon Ho-jeong took control.
“It’s been a while since we’ve seen each other like this.”
“haha.”
Ambassador Gong Gong burst out laughing and Seung Hyeon-jin shook his head.
“Before I went to war, I taught you Taijiquan.”
“The teachings at that time were a great help.”
“He was amazing at the time, but he was a bit clumsy and over-the-top, so I was secretly worried even though he wasn’t a shaman. It was like a child thrown into the water. But that talented person has returned as a giant casting a shadow over the world.”
“That’s too much praise.”
Seunghyunjin smiled.
“It seems the soldier has other things to attend to. “I feel like I want to hold on to it and just talk to you, but it’s an important conversation, so please leave the room.”
“no. “I also have something to tell you two.”
“Huh, was that so?”
Seung Hyeon-jin-in looked at Zhuge Wen-ho.
Zhuge Wenhu smiled and nodded.
“Sit down. “I’ll give you a cup of tea.”
“thank you.”
Soon a teacup was placed in front of Yeonhojeong.
The public ambassador opened his mouth.
“I want to tell you a lot about you. However, as Seunghyeonjinin said, I think it would be better to first tell you why you came all the way to Ye.”
“All right.”
Yeon Ho-jeong said while looking at Zhuge Mun-ho.
“Sir.”
“You tell me.”
“I know you must be having a hard time regarding the Murim Lord matter.”
Suddenly, a story about the Murim lord appears.
Either way, it was bound to be a sensitive topic. Ambassador Gong Gong and Seung Hyeon-jin’s expressions hardened slightly.
Zhuge Wenhu sighed.
“Yeah, it’s a pain in the ass. “How could it not hurt?”
“I don’t think they’re saying this because there’s no one qualified.”
“Of course. If you look around the Murim Alliance right now, there are many people who could become the leader. Rather, I am worried because there are so many.”
“I guess that’s not it.”
“hmm? “No?”
“Don’t you think it’s the same no matter who you put on the throne?”
It was quite aggressive and direct speech.
But for some reason, the feeling was quite different.
Like Yeon Ho-jeong before, he did not bother to bring up this issue. However, it did not have the power to shake the listener’s heart like before.
His words sounded natural, as if they just came naturally to him. It seemed like he was stating an obvious point that anyone could understand.
Zhuge Wenho’s expression became strange.
“It’s a bit of a dangerous statement, but… To be honest, that’s true.”
Rather, Ambassador Gong Gong and Seung Hyeon-jin-in were surprised by Zhuge Mun-ho’s answer.
Yeon Ho-jeong nodded.
“That’s why I think they will want to give up many of their leaders and want strong talent who can become the pillars of the next generation of martial arts.”
“As expected, you talk quickly. That’s right. “As a military officer, I want such talent.”
“As the Sobuju of the Inkryongbu, I also agree with your thoughts.”
“I thought you would think that way.”
“But as Yeonhojeong, a martial arts person facing a war that could break out at any moment, I am against that idea.”
Zhuge Wenhu’s eyes sparkled.
“Then who do you want to be the leader?”
“That person may not become a leader just because I wish. However, the first leader who is like a cornerstone that I hope for is people that many people can recognize.”
Yeon Ho-jeong looked at the public ambassador and Seung Hyeon-jin.
“I want one of you to become the first leader.”
“…?!”
“And if possible, I would like you to become a public ambassador.”
