Dark and Light Martial Emperor

Chapter 499

Episode 499.

Time for Patience (4)

“…There was a report from Uiseongakju that there would be no more deaths due to the ongoing situation.”

Zhuge Wenhu’s voice was very calm.

But those who heard him knew. He is very depressed and is holding back his anger with superhuman patience.

“This concludes the secondary casualty statistics, and next I will report on the damaged supplies within the area.”

Zhuge Wenhu reported in detail where the explosion occurred and the cost and duration of repairs there.

It was impossible for an ordinary person to suppress his rising anger, investigate calmly, and report it like this. In many ways, this was a testament to Zhuge Li’s greatness.

“We will conclude the report on the above damage.”

The public ambassador, who had his eyes closed, opened his mouth.

“Did you say that Sejak was a windbreaker?”

“That’s right.”

The atmosphere in the conference hall became even heavier.

It was usually a place where only government officials could enter, but it was different now. Elders of other nine factions, as well as representatives of minor Bang factions, came and listened to Zhuge Munhao’s report.

“A poor person… a poor person…”

Ambassador Gong Gong lamented.

“How can this be? He wasn’t without his fair-mindedness, but he also had a rare sense of humanity. “I could not have imagined that Pungbyeokja, who was a man of great character and ability as a member of the Qingseong faction, would turn out to be Sejak.”

The crowd closed their mouths and remained silent.

In particular, the expression on the face of the recovery incident was truly cruel. Haven’t you been friends with Pungbyeokja for a long time? I really didn’t have any doubts that he would be a member of the Three Religions.

Zhuge Wenhu said.

“I’ll tell you about that. “I am saying this out of concern that the servants and elders may feel uneasy, so please criticize me for being cold-hearted only after the meeting is over.”

“….”

“As a result of the investigation, it can be said that there are no more incidents. “The three of us were all poor, but we had managers and contacts who looked after them.”

There was no need to use the word cool in public.

Nevertheless, Zhuge Lianghu tried to comfort the minds of the leaders by using such words. Because it would be such a shock to everyone.

“And let me tell you one more thing. “I intentionally left it out of the list of victims, but I feel like the people here should know.”

“….”

“As you might have expected… Yonghwajinin could not avoid the explosion.”

Sighs came from all over.

It was such a huge explosion that the entire building of Hyeongdang was destroyed. Moreover, Yonghwajin’s inner strength was blocked. No matter how much purple energy was flowing throughout his body, he would not have been safe from the explosion.

Zhuge Wenhu lowered his head.

“It was to catch Sejak, but it is clear that it was a somewhat drastic measure. “Is there anyone in the world who would be okay with dying for no reason? Yonghwajin was someone who should never have died like that.”

“….”

“It’s all my fault. “Please reprimand the poor soldier.”

The crowd closed their mouths again.

Yes. In a way, Yonghwajin died because of Zhuge Wenhu and Yan Haozheng. If the situation had not been driven to the extreme by such drastic actions, Yonghwajin would not have died.

However, the risk of the variables of the Three Schools and the Three Jobs was too great to use this incident as an excuse to criticize Zhuge Liang.

You may be subject to disciplinary action due to problems in the search process. However, it was too much to take responsibility for this and make him step down or imprison him.

Seunghyeonjinin opened his mouth.

“Military.”

“Yes Jinin.”

“The soldier suspected three of Bonggong. “Me, Bokhosatae, and Pungbukja.”

“I did.”

“I think I worked hard in my own way, but I felt very bad just because I was suspected of being a Sejak.”

“I understand.”

I understand, but I don’t say I’m sorry. It was because I didn’t think that part was something to apologize for.

And his attitude surprisingly satisfied Seung Hyeon-jin’s heart.

“Why are we gathered here? “It may seem grandiose, but isn’t it ultimately a gathering for the well-being and peace of the world?”

“….”

“How can we only insist on clean methods to achieve such a goal? “There are times when somewhat drastic measures are necessary, as long as they do not cross the line.”

Namgung-in, who had been quiet, opened his mouth.

“I agree, but this Yonghwajin incident seems to have gone beyond the extreme level.”

Several scholars nodded.

Regardless of what Namgung-in thought, it was an issue that was quite acceptable. In any case, they were not accustomed to this kind of arbitrary behavior.

Seung Hyun Jin-in nodded.

“exactly. “This case clearly crossed the line.” “Even if it’s not disciplinary action

, it may be

a matter of limiting authority…” “If it’s not a war, I think you can think of it that way.”

“…?!”

Everyone looked at Seunghyunjin with puzzled eyes.

Seunghyeonjinin sighed.

“I’ll be honest. Even when the military said that there was a king among us and even when he suggested sending Yeonhojeong to Mukryongbu, I could not accept the military’s words. “I must confess, it is true that I thought he was an overly worried person.”

“….”

“But after experiencing this incident, I changed my mind.”

Seunghyeonjinin looked around the audience.

“This is war.”

A few people swallowed their saliva.

These are words spoken by an officer of the Shaman sect known as Taesanbukdu along with Shaolin. The weight was amazing.

“They were waging war. Before we knew it. But even though we heard that Sejak existed, we did not prepare for war. “I didn’t even listen properly to the words of people who could see the situation clearly, and I was busy criticizing the use of extremely extreme methods.”

Namgung-in cautiously opened his mouth.

“But Seunghyunjin. The military’s dogmatism should at least be resolved after a meeting with the public servants here…”

“Has the meeting been held? “I wonder if the military’s persuasion worked for us, who did not believe in the existence of Sejak and thought of the rare enemy of the Three Churches as only a vague problem.”

“It’s not wrong, but it’s a bit excessive. People here are not stupid. Moreover, the military is not a place to commit dogmatism just because something cannot be persuaded, but a place where you have to find a solution somehow.”

“Do you have to struggle alone to find the solution? Why does the military exist? “Are we just baby birds that only accept the work done by the military?”

Namgung-in closed his mouth.

To put it bluntly, this is a discussion that could last for three days and nights. However, grabbing the horse’s tail itself can look ugly. In particular, the opponent was Seung Hyeon-jin, who was suspected of being a Sejak.

If you go any further and undermine the prestige of the military, you will only be a fool who cannot see the essence.

“Even if there are no three religions, we must help the military. It’s not just the military. It is right for us to help each other and lead the Murim Alliance in a better direction. But now, even though we have a clear enemy, instead of helping each other, we split into factions and maligned the other. “I may not know it, but I think there are people who have taken advantage of their positions as Murim League bonggongs or elders to gain their own personal gain.”

Seunghyeonjinin has never been like that.

However, some people who heard him blushed. This is criticizing a person who knew what he really wanted to say and at the same time sold his eyes on something he didn’t want to say.

“Please don’t think that Bondo supports the military because he says this. It is true that the military’s actions were clearly wrong. But what I am saying is that the reason he did this ultimately lies with us.”

Seung Hyun Jin-in’s voice was serious and full of appeal.

“The fault for Yonghwajin’s death and the countless casualties is not solely the responsibility of the military. We all have it.”

“….”

“All of us who did not open our ears and see properly bear the same sin as the soldiers. “I think so.”

Seung Hyun Jin-in asked while looking at the decryption incident.

“Decryption incident.”

“…Tell me.”

“Is this person wrong?”

The recovery situation was lamentable.

“You’re not wrong. You’re not wrong. “If even the old man in the back room had seen the situation properly, he wouldn’t have sat there with his butt hurting, but it seems that even the way we see and hear has become that of an old man.”

She is dumbfounded by the shocking fact that her close friend, Jang Mun-in of Cheongseong, was Se-jak. Perhaps because it was her speaking, the depth of her words was different.

Fu Hao-sai looked at Zhuge Wen-hu and said.

“Military.”

“Please speak.”

“I don’t want to discuss military methods. Do you know why?”

“….”

“Because only now have I fully accepted the fact that we are at war.”

Creepy!

The sad words about the restoration incident gave goosebumps to everyone who heard it.

“The enemy is doing their best to target the midfield. They’re trying to take over the imperial palace too, right? I even tried to hold the ink dragon buju and shake it. What’s more, you even made one of the Bonggongs, none other than the Murim Alliance, a Sejak.”

“….”

“This is war. It is a dark war that cannot be stopped until one side is defeated. In such a war, only the military and the Yeon Dae-su knew of the seriousness of the situation and took action. “It means that you silently did your best in a fierce place where there was no glory and in a situation where no one recognized you.”

Bokhosatae looked around and said.

Her eyes were very bloodshot.

“I speak clearly. If you want to hold the military responsible for the death of Yonghwajin, ask this person as well. “I hope you will kick out this incompetent old man who didn’t even know his old friend was Sejak.”

The atmosphere became solemn.

Seunghyeonjinin’s words had power, but the words of the Bokho incident literally struck the hearts of the audience. I was able to feel her sincerity all the more because no one knew how close she was to Jang Mun-in of Cheongseong.

Namgung-in opened his mouth.

“May I say something?”

“Please speak.”

“After listening to Seunghyeonjinin and the Bokho incident, I think I was looking at the situation too myopically.”

“You don’t have to say that. What the Lord Namgung said also makes sense.”

“Thank you for your consideration, but the important thing is to prevent this situation from happening again. Also, we can’t just pretend we don’t know what’s already happened.”

Namgoongin sighed.

“No matter who is responsible, Yonghwajin’s incident cannot be ignored. “If a volcanic wave breaks out, even the Murim Alliance will be in trouble.”

Zhuge Wenhu said.

“I will go to the volcano group.”

Everyone looked at him in surprise.

“As Lord Namgung said, this matter is not something that can just be overlooked. “No matter what the process was, there must be someone responsible, and that responsibility should be taken by me, who led this incident.”

Zhuge Wenhu lowered his head.

“I will clearly take responsibility for Yonghwajin’s affairs.”

At that time, the public ambassador spoke.

“I have something to tell you about that.”

“yes?”

The public ambassador shouted out the conference room door.

“Please come in.”

After a while, the door opened and a person appeared.

“Greetings to the dignitaries of the Murim Alliance.”

A middle-aged monk with a sharp expression spoke in a calm tone.

“It is said to be the Dragon Boat of the Volcanic Sect.”
