Episode 142

Army of Death and Death (2)

His expression was serious, but what he said was quite extreme.

Yeo-guk frowned.

“A ragtag group of people?”

At that time, Yunho nodded.

“The teacher is right. “We are a ragtag bunch.”

Most of the latter-day indexes, including Yeo Guk, looked at Yunho.

Yunho licked his lips.

“Now that we’ve talked, let’s talk. How many of the people gathered here have come with a clear decision to join the Confucian army led by the practitioner?”

Since what he said wasn’t wrong, no one could argue with Yunho’s words.

Yunho’s face became serious.

“Any group in the world whose purpose is unclear cannot help but be called a ragtag group. Even if each member of the organization is exceptional.”

“Hmm.”

Late-stage indices were depressed.

Yunho asked Yeonhojeong.

“Am I right?”

Yeon Ho-jeong smiled.

“You’re half right.”

“What do you mean by half?”

“You are a ragtag group because you are not united as one, and you are a ragtag group because you are not skilled.”

Yunho’s face hardened.

‘Skill…’

He was a great disciple of the Hwasan Sect. Even though I didn’t learn all of Hwasan’s secret techniques, I was confident that I could take down a decent group of bandits by myself even if I went to Gangho right away.

‘I’m angry, but.’

Yunho sighed softly.

‘I can’t help but admit it in front of that person.’

Yeon Ho-jeong accepted countless challenges from late Jisoo over the course of several days. And he won all of those battles.

He even won every match overwhelmingly. Yunho also never exceeded three sums while competing with Yeonhojeong five times.

In other words, it doesn’t matter how high a level you have built.

Yunho could not defeat Yeonhojeong. Let alone a successful attack, it wasn’t even a threat.

In the end, Yunho was weak and Yeonhojeong was strong. That was it.

Yeon Ho-jeong said.

“But he said something interesting. “Everyone’s purpose is different?”

Yunho said with a shocked face.

“Of course I do.”

“of course?”

“…?”

“Does this mean it’s natural? Why do you say of course?”

“What… do you mean?”

Yeon Ho-jeong frowned.

“Doesn’t that mean that most of you are petty bastards who use caution as an excuse to risk their lives on the path they choose?”

“…!”

The faces of the late exponents became noticeably stiff.

Yeon Ho-jeong’s eyes became cold.

“I will tell you clearly when I make this proposal to you. “The Independence Army is the first organization of the Murim League to be re-established after decades, and it is a unit that performs independent missions, breaking away from the politics of the League.”

“….”

“A unit with such special characteristics should have a sense of responsibility commensurate with it. I also added that since there is not much time left, we should think more carefully. “Don’t you remember?”

Yunho stuttered.

“You said so….”

“We are all people walking on a knife edge. If you decide to come here, you have to risk your life. “Were you planning on taking a tour of the river and having some fun and then going back to your respective homes?”

The later exponents have become mute. This is because the majority actually had that mindset.

Then a young man said:

“That can’t be right.”

Yeon Ho-jeong turned his head.

He was a young man. He seemed to be almost the same age as Yeon Ji-pyeong. At most, he’s one or two years older.

‘Jeomchangpa (???).’

Surprisingly, the young man was the only person from the Jeomchang faction.

Yeon Ho-jeong asked.

“name is?”

“This is Cheokgang (??).”

“Are you a disciple of the Jeom Chang Sect?”

“I am a great disciple of the Jeomchang school.”

“Yes, Cheokgang. Does this mean you risked your life?”

“of course.”

Although he was a young man with a gentle appearance, his clear eyes were full of strength.

“I’m going out into the world. I will go out into the world and practice my martial arts skills. But there’s no way a martial artist who doesn’t risk his or her life can be strong.”

Cheok Gang’s voice contained strong confidence and belief.

“While I was thinking about that, Captain Yeon came to us. I thought it was an opportunity. “That’s why I came.”

Yeon Ho-jeong smiled.

“Do you want to practice martial arts in the gap between life and death?”

“It wasn’t a pure purpose. I offer a clear apology for that. But it is true that I came here prepared to bury my bones.”

Cheok Gang took control.

“I hope to go along well.”

He looks full of spirit.

When Cheokgang, the youngest among them, showed such an appearance, the faces of the later members also looked embarrassed. Because they didn’t have that much sincerity.

“I said to carefully consider the special characteristics of the independence fighters. But we never said anything about what our unit would do. But it is not easy to risk your life and hope to enlist.”

Yeon Ho-jeong gave Cheok Gang power.

“No matter your reason, I will become a captain you will not be ashamed of. “Thank you for being with us.”

He raised his head and looked around at the late indexes.

Most people were lowering their heads as if they were embarrassed, and some were frowning.

“Why should I bow only to Cheok Gang?”

Yeon Ho-jeong frowned.

“You should have received my greeting. But I don’t want to bow down to any of you, except for that friend named Cheokgang.”

“….”

“I know it’s a shame. “You lost to Cheok Gang in your attitude toward life before martial arts.”

At that time, Yeo-guk opened her mouth.

“I definitely apologize for that.”

“The name?”

“This is the female kingdom of the Kunlun Sect.”

Yeo-guk continued.

“Yeah, I remember. You were serious. But I wasn’t as serious as you. I know that in your eyes, I may be seen as a simpleton who only cares. “I apologize.”

Yeon Ho-jeong nodded.

“good night. “I accept your apology.”

“But talking about your attitude toward life only seems to be an intention to insult us.”

Yeo Guk’s eyes deepened.

“That friend Cheokgang is definitely great. “It is usually not a big deal to come to an organization regardless of one’s seniority and with an unclear purpose and with the determination to risk one’s life.”

“That’s true.”

“But it can also be said to be just as foolish. Risking your life is something that is worth risking. “An individual’s life is not that light.”

Yeoguk pointed to Yeonhojeong.

“Didn’t you say thank you to Cheok Gang because you knew how heavy it was?”

Yeon Ho-jeong smiled.

“That is also true. “You’re smart.”

“exactly. But not everyone can be the same. “The differences between individuals must be clearly recognized.”

Yeo-guk shook his head.

“It’s okay if you don’t receive an apology for the insult. “I just want you to know that we didn’t come here lightly.”

Depending on what you hear, it may get on your nerves. However, there was some truth to Yeo Guk’s words.

Yeon Ho-jeong shook his head.

“Did you say Yeo-guk?”

“exactly.”

“I hope you stay until the end.”

Yeo-guk frowned.

Are you staying till the end? What does this mean?

Yeon Ho-jeong crossed his arms.

“If it weren’t for the special circumstances you find yourself in, I wouldn’t have pointed out your attitude.”

The eyes of the late exponents widened.

A special environment?

Yeon Ho-jeong’s voice became cold.

“Yeo-guk.”

“Please speak.”

“You could live comfortably if you went back to the Kunlun Sect or if you stayed in the Murim Alliance, so why did you come here?”

“…!”

“Is it because I can’t be the best? Or did you want to escape?”

Yeo Guk’s face clearly hardened.

That wasn’t all. The facial expressions of most of the late Jisoo’s became similar to Yeo Guk’s.

Yeon Ho-jeong clicked his tongue.

“The reason I was late when you gathered under the auspices of Pagungak was because I came to check your position in each faction.”

Yeon Ho-jeong smiled.

“There is no way that talented people who are tightly held in each faction can come to me on their own, right? I was curious. “What are the circumstances?”

The faces of the late exponents turned red.

Yeon Ho-jeong shook his head.

“If what I saw is true, you should be more ashamed.”

He saw Yeoguk.

Yeo-guk was biting her lip.

“Yeo-guk.”

“….”

“Say it again. “Is there a reason why I should treat you as well as Cheokgang?”

Yeo-guk couldn’t say anything.

Yeon Ho-jeong smiled.

“But you’re not wrong either. I was a little excited too. “It wasn’t my intention to insult you, but it may seem like an insult to those who receive it.”

“….”

“I said there was no need to apologize, but I will still apologize. “Everyone has different natures and different upbringings, but I judged you too much based on myself.”

“….”

“sorry.”

Yeon Ho-jeong’s apology was sincere.

But in a way, it was an apology that was worse than not making anything at all. Because if they receive that apology, they become truly ugly people.

It was a time when the late Jisoos were filled with endless shame and inexplicable anger.

[Student. [They are martial arts people.] Yeon Ho-

jeong’s eyes lit up at the sound of silence.

[What is the number?]

[Over one hundred. But… no matter how you look at it, he’s not a member of the Murim League?]

There’s nothing strange about it at all.

The Daebyeol Mountain Range spanned three provinces. The Murim Alliance was just located at one point of Daebyeolsan Mountain.

However, there is clearly a problem at this point as news of the creation of the Murim Alliance is spreading throughout the central plains.

The person who discovered the suspicious movement and their identity was Full Sang. And Gaeul-sang immediately shared that information with Yeon Ho-jeong.

This was the reason why Yeon Ho-jeong brought Yu-gun and his group here.

“And one more apology.”

The later indexes looked up at Yeonhojeong.

For a moment, they flinched without realizing it.

Yeon Ho-jeong’s eyes were frighteningly cold. At the same time, it was that hot.

A strange majesty that they had never felt before was burning in their mysterious eyes that were difficult to describe in words.

“No matter what circumstances brought you here, I will never allow you to leave.”

“…?!”

“Because you have nothing to do? Want to check your liver? It may be rude, but do you really think I would give up an army the size of yours? “No matter where you look in the midfield, it’s hard to find a young expert with your level of strength.”

Yeon Ho-jeong smiled brightly.

“You have been my servants from the moment you gathered at the back of Pagungak. Reject me? That can’t be possible. “Now that you are under my command, the only way to escape from me is to die.”

It was a terrifying statement. It was too much of a stimulus for the self-respecting late exponents of the old school.

Yeo-guk gritted her teeth and was about to open her mouth, but for a moment she felt an inexplicable sense of discomfort.

‘what?’

His eyes wavered.

‘Didn’t that person tell me that he wanted me to stay until the end?’

Why did the person who said that no one would give up and that no one would be able to escape me unless he died say that? Isn’t this an incoherent statement?

‘What on earth are you thinking…?’

At that time, Mukbi sent a warning message to Yeonhojeong again.

[We are approaching the valley! Besides, they… are strong. They are experts!]

Yeon Ho-jeong opened his mouth.

“Now, let me tell you about the purpose of the founding of this army.”

[We have entered the entrance to the valley!]

“The enemies you will have to face from now on are demons who can easily kill even the peak expert with unimaginable tricks and viciousness.”

[It’s fast! We’ll be there in just a little while! What should I do? Are you an enemy? If it’s an enemy, you should at least fire in check…!]

“Think of the fight as a warm-up before you fight against real fighters. “I tell you in advance, if you don’t kill them, you could die.”

[Student!]

“Now, here’s your first mission.”

Phew!

A fierce group of people appeared from inside the narrow passage.

They were people with a strong smell of blood. The force they gave off before using force was full of horrifying murder.

Yeonhojeong’s eyes turned blue.

“Exterminate the enemy.”
