Dark and Light Martial Emperor

Chapter 164

Episode 164

The essence of darkness (4)

The founding ceremony of Tangma Army was held on a much grander scale than expected.

It is different from the beginning with the Mortal Army. Not only the commander of the Tangma army, Mo Yong-wu, but also the five hundred warriors under his command were all wearing luxurious light armor and even carrying ceremonial weapons.

Those who attended the founding ceremony could not help but admire the outstanding majesty of Tangmagun.

Perhaps because they had not yet had any proper training, each one was full of individuality, but the stern spirit they exuded was enough to warrant them being called elite soldiers.

And Mo Yong-woo, who stood in front of them, was by far the highlight of them all. Countless people couldn’t help but admire Mo Yongwu’s appearance and cool spirit.

Thus ended the founding ceremony of Tangma Army.

Of course, this day was not just the founding ceremony of the Tangma Army. Afterwards, the founding ceremony of the Murim Alliance affiliated organizations followed, and the event, which started at noon, ended only at sunset.

As soon as the long founding ceremony was over, a festival began. The warriors gathered in groups of twos and threes to drink alcohol and eat meat.

There were no mortals in that harmonious place.

* * *

“Hehehe!”

On the way back to residence.

Mr. Moyong kept bursting into laughter, wondering what was so good about it.

“Good job. Well done indeed. “I knew you weren’t normal, but you really made your presence felt in front of so many people.”

Mo Yong-woo filed a complaint.

“It was a show-and-tell approach.”

“There are a lot of people who fall behind because they can’t show that. “No matter how hard it must have been for your simple personality, it was all necessary.”

“I know.”

“Hehehe!”

It seemed like he was in a really good mood. I couldn’t stop laughing the entire walk from Museongjeon to here.

Mo Yong-woo bowed his head.

“If you do that, I’ll just go.”

“hmm? Where are you planning to go? “I’d like to drink to get drunk with you, at least for today.”

“The Tangma army is a great force. But a unit that doesn’t stick together is just a ragtag bunch.”

“Hey, wouldn’t it be okay if I rested today?”

“I plan to let the soldiers rest, but I can’t do that. If I do my job properly, Tangma-kun will also shine. Also, shouldn’t we be able to help you by controlling them as soon as possible?”

“what? ha ha ha!”

Moyong smiled in satisfaction.

“You don’t have to push yourself that hard. “Are you sure you can take care of it?”

“When everyone was excited and relaxed, problems inevitably arose. “I think it would be a good idea to spend today alone to strengthen myself.”

Moyong-gun smiled.

Mo Yong-woo is right. The enemy is always looking for the moment when the opponent relaxes. Of course, such tension is not a bad thing as to whether there is anyone in the Murim Alliance who can be called an enemy.

“If that’s what you think, fine. “If my younger brother says he’s going to try hard, I shouldn’t be the older brother and stop him.”

“Thank you for your understanding.”

“Before that, I want to ask you something.”

“Please speak.”

Mo Yong asked quietly.

“Are you planning to be with the Tang family’s daughter?”

It was one of the reasons why he was in such a good mood.

Mo Yong-yu accepted Tang Sang-er as Tang Ma-gun. This is the same in other organizations, but due to the nature of Yugun, the command of the commander is absolute. If Mo Yongyu had not wanted it, she would not have been able to join the Tangma Army.

Mo Yong-woo quenched his appetite.

It’s not what he wanted, but now that he has accepted her, he has no choice but to carry her.

“No matter how good a person is, it is difficult to know his true character at just one look. However, the first impression was not bad and her abilities are outstanding, so she will be helpful to Tangma Army.”

“Hahaha! Well done, really well done.”

With this, the party also had something to say. Haven’t we been dragging this issue on for quite some time? I felt like the tooth I was suffering from had fallen out.

And before that, I liked that he had the guts to use even the person who would become his wife for his own gain.

‘I saw one person correctly.’

good night. very good Mo Yong-woo, who had not shown his presence until now, has recently been proving his ability in earnest.

Moyong was very satisfied with his younger brother’s appearance.

“The night was deep. “Don’t push yourself too hard.”

“All right.”

Mo Yong-woo bowed his head.

“If you do, please rest well, brother.”

“OK. “Let’s have lunch or something tomorrow.”

“yes.”

Prince Mo Yong, who sent Mo Yong Woo off like that, smiled and headed to his residence.

How long did you walk?

Around the time when the main gate of the residence began to appear.

‘….’

Frost settled on Moyonggun’s face, which was full of smiles.

Tsutsutsutsu.

The subtle presence emanating from him stimulated his five senses.

A frighteningly deep energy. We were somehow able to get it under control, but the subtly spreading, bloody energy was spreading over the wall and reaching this place.

It is a feeling that is difficult to feel even if you are a peak expert. It was a presence that could only be felt when one’s sixth sense developed and the density of energy rose beyond the barrier of transcendental perfection.

‘That’s interesting.’

A cold smile appeared on Mo Yong-gun’s face.

‘I can’t believe you came here at this hour. It always exceeds expectations.’

After a while, Prince Moyong arrived in front of the gate.

At the same time, a young man appeared from a shaded area inside the gate.

“How have you been?”

Moyong-gun smiled. Wherever his cool expression went, his face was full of composure.

“How are you?”

“As you can see.”

Yeon Ho-jeong spread both hands. The fluttering hem of the long cloth looked like wings.

Mo Yong-gun’s eyes deepened.

‘I’m a nan.’

A body that appears slender at first glance may be well-built with extremely compressed muscles. However, wearing such luxurious long clothes made the atmosphere different from before.

Could it be said that he is like a scholar with lofty ideals? Just looking at that figure, it is hard to imagine him swinging an enormous ax weighing over 80 pounds.

“What are you doing here at this late hour of the night?”

“I don’t think other people’s attention would be focused on it outside of this time.”

“Is there something you want to say?”

Yeon Ho-jeong smiled.

“I called it a grand festival, but I haven’t even taken a sip of alcohol yet. “I would be grateful if the person who took out the Lord of Death’s position at the founding ceremony could give me a consolation drink.”

Mr. Moyong spoke clearly.

“There is no comfort to give you.”

“It comes out hard.”

“Hehe, you don’t think we’re a good relationship to laugh and have a drink?”

“But you’re not so cold that you can’t even pour me a drink, are you?”

That’s a strange thing to say.

Mo Yong-gun felt a strange atmosphere in Yeon Ho-jeong’s words and actions.

‘I don’t think I came here to do anything in particular.’

After creating the Mortal Army and using the card called Dream, there was no longer any need for the two to meet face to face. All that is needed is for each person to work hard for their desires in their respective positions.

‘I’m sure you know that well.’

Yeon Ho-jeong is a fighting genius.

He was a man who achieved victory through skillful methods, whether it was martial arts or politics. Moreover, he is very bold and does not get upset over trivial matters.

It is not a vessel worthy of being criticized for being excluded from the founding ceremony. Although they were enemies, Prince Moyong recognized Yeonhojeong.

‘Are you here to ask for something? Or…’

Yeon Ho-jeong smiled.

“If you’re curious, let’s go in.”

It was as if I was reading his thoughts.

Moyong-gun chuckled.

“I can’t serve common alcohol to someone who is the leader of an army of mortals. Let’s go in. There is no comfort, but there is good-smelling alcohol. “I recently got some decent alcohol.”

“Good.”

After a while.

“Hoo, the scent is quite heavy?”

Moyong-gun burst into laughter.

“It’s the Five Liang Liquids of Sichuan. Although it was heavy, the rear end was strangely light.”

“Sacheon silk?”

“I received it from the head of the party.”

Yeon Ho-jeong chuckled.

“You have nothing to hide now?”

Prince Moyong spoke as if there was no problem.

“You already know everything, so is there any need to hide it?”

“You have become more bold than before.”

“It’s the same now as it was before. “It’s just that my evaluation of you has changed.”

“Has your evaluation gone up?”

“It was adjusted upward.”

“It’s an honor.”

Moyong smiled and raised his glass.

“Let’s have a drink.”

Ching!

The glasses clashed together, making a clear and beautiful sound.

After emptying the glass, Yeon Ho-jeong coughed.

“You’re stronger than I thought.”

“If you drink it, you won’t even know it’s strong. “Rather, this is average.”

“I understand why it’s called Myeongju.”

“yes? “I’ve never been a fan of alcohol, but I feel like if I drink alcohol like this, I’ll quickly become a drunkard.”

“Do you have enough? “I want to drink a lot.”

“Haha! Don’t worry. “There’s enough to get you drunk.”

Yeon Ho-jeong grinned.

“For the first time in a while, I’m going to remove some dirt from my throat.”

The two people drank some alcohol.

Surprisingly, the two never talked about the world or politics. The conversation was mainly about trivial everyday topics or things that we didn’t know about each other.

It was a peaceful drinking party. It was as if a senior member of Moorim, who had formed a family, was serving drinks to a talented junior member.

At least that was how it seemed on the outside.

How much time has passed like that?

“You know what?”

“What do you mean?”

“I thought about this once. ah! “I think I want to make this guy my person and put him under me.”

Yeon Ho-jeong chuckled.

“You and I are of different species.”

“You think so? Surprisingly. “I thought we were the same species.”

“exactly?”

“That’s right. It is difficult to find people as fierce as us in the contemporary martial arts world. “Aren’t you and I beasts waiting for an opportunity to rip off a piece of flesh?”

I don’t know anything else, but I sympathize with the word beast.

The fierce political struggle between Yeonhojeong and Prince Moyong is like a fight between wild beasts. It may seem luxurious at first glance, but deep inside, there is a base desire to destroy others and achieve one’s own goals.

It is right to burn one’s life to achieve one’s goal. But on the other hand, there is no need to fight like this.

A fight between beasts that only humans can do.

There is no right way for Yeonhojeong or Moyonggun.

“So I’ll ask.”

Mo Yong-gun’s eyes lit up.

“I’m not asking you to come under me. Because you are not worthy of being under anyone. “How about joining hands with me?”

“Let’s hold hands…”

“That’s right.”

It was a great offer.

Mo Yong-gun made his own choices throughout his life and was not a person who made suggestions to anyone. This was especially true when his situation was good.

It also meant that he held Yeonhojeong in high esteem.

At the same time, he felt sorry for Yeon Ho-jeong.

Even though there is an easier and faster way to develop that incredible talent, you still fight with yourself. If I were just a little more gentle, I could reach the top faster than anyone else.

Yeon Ho-jeong smiled faintly.

“Just in case.”

“hmm?”

“In the future, when I defeat you, I hope you change your mind. “I, too, am disappointed in your abilities.”

“haha.”

“I guess we’re just destined to live like this.”

Moyong-gun chuckled.

“Are you really here to drink today?”

“There should be days like this too. Isn’t that right?”

“That’s true, but like I said, aren’t we beasts? “It’s not like you come here without a purpose.”

“but.”

“Tell me. “Is there something you want from me?”

“I’m just trying to make it a little easier.”

“What do you mean?”

Ting Ting.

Yeon Ho-jeong tapped the empty glass with his index finger nail.

“The person who gave me this drink.”

“…?”

“Please make room with that person. “For some reason, I feel like they’ll give me a hard time if I go to see them.”

“Dangaju?”

“exactly.”

Interest arose on Moyong’s face.

“If I grant you that favor, what will you do for me?”

“I will protect Commander Tangma.”

“…?!”

“I gave up my algebra seat, but I was thinking about it. “What should we do with him?”

“Hmm.”

“It will be a shield, not a sword. At least this time.”

Moyong-gun chuckled.

I thought it was truly Yeonhojeong.

“My good mood today is to your benefit.”
