Dark and Light Martial Emperor

Chapter 507

Episode 507

Summary and Challenge (7)

“I think about that every once in a while.”

My father’s voice sounded calmer than ever.

“Instead of getting involved in martial arts affairs, how about using the martial arts and treasures that the family has accumulated so far solely for the sake of the people?”

“You’re still like that now, right?”

“Yes, but at the same time, you also have a foot in the martial arts world, right? “If you truly lived for them, there was no need to set foot in the Murim Alliance.”

“It’s not wrong.”

“The reason I agreed to the creation of the Murim Alliance and the reason I sat here and participated in countless meetings was because I wanted to be a force for the world in my own way.”

“….”

“There will be no change in those thoughts in the future. but….”

“…?”

A self-mocking smile appeared on Yeonwi’s face as she looked up at the sky.

“It’s been a long time. “I felt my own desire so vividly.”

“yes?”

“You met the Lord of the Ink Dragon, right?”

Yeon Ho-jeong smiled.

“How was it?”

“He was someone I couldn’t handle.”

Yeonwi shook his head.

“I had a vague idea. The strong people of Seongcheon are the strong people of Cheonocheon. “But I didn’t really know the difference.”

“Because you’ve never seen it before.”

“It did. Now I understand clearly. “Why is the Thirteenth Place of Saint Heaven called the strongest?”

Yeonwi stuck her tongue out.

“It was completely different. It wasn’t a person. The moment she faced him, Abby felt overwhelmed. “It was truly a martial arts skill of a different level.”

It was not normal for someone to gently express these feelings in front of their child. Yeon Ho-jeong thought that her father was a great person in many ways.

“At the same time, the goal became clearer. The point I had only vaguely looked up to was now within my grasp. I also had this thought. “I wonder if I will ever be able to step into such a supreme state.”

Yeon Ho-jeong shook his head.

“Your father will definitely be able to reach that level. “I guarantee it.”

“Is that so?”

“Have you forgotten? “I am also someone who reached that level in the past.”

Yeonwi smiled.

“Yeah, I guess that’s what I thought about.”

He completely believed the words of his son, who had experienced the time of the Emperor of Darkness.

However, sometimes I forgot that fact. I’ve heard about it, but I’ve never seen it. I believed my son’s words, but it was difficult to recall the fact vividly.

But hearing this now, my son definitely seemed amazing.

Yeon Ho-jeong smiled.

“My father has accumulated martial arts skills more honestly than anyone else. “You’re different from someone like me who looks for tricks and tips first.”

“There’s no need to say that.”

“I just want you to know. What I’m saying is not just to comfort your father. “I’m sure my father will reach that level of light in the near future.”

Yeonwi nodded.

“When you say that, I feel confident too.”

“Fortunately, the.”

“That aside.”

Yeonwi changed the topic.

“Other than martial arts, I understand why you highly value Yang Buju.”

“Is that so?”

“It was a rare hero. He is definitely a person with human charm. But…”

“It’s dangerous.”

“Yes.”

Yeonwi sighed.

“He is a greedy person. “For his own purposes, he would be so vicious that he would even sacrifice people around him.”

“Good to see you.”

“I heard him talking about you. “He didn’t just look favorably on you, he coveted you a lot.”

Yeon Ho-jeong smiled bitterly.

“Isn’t it the natural way for humans to covet what they can’t have?”

It was a statement that clearly drew a line. It also meant that even if the sky fell, there would be no way for anyone to truly fall under him.

Yeonwi patted Yeonhojeong on the shoulder.

“I believe he will do well there as well.”

“Do not worry.”

“I’ve often told you that even if you fail your mission, you should return safely.”

“….”

“Abby’s heart is always the same. “Work for the world, but you must not get hurt and come back unharmed.”

Yeon Ho-jeong bowed on the spot.

“I’ll have a nice trip.”

* * *

Kugugoogung!

The Jujakhwamun (????), the southern gate of the Murim Alliance, opened with a solemn sound.

Zhuge Wenhu personally came out to the castle gate to see them off.

“This is travel expenses I pay separately.”

“There’s no need for that…”

“Accept it. Isn’t it true that people become ugly when they don’t have money? You are going to the Mukryongbu as the representative of the Murim Alliance. “I’ve done well so far, but I need to be more careful in the future.”

Yeon Ho-jeong smiled slightly.

“Since you said so, I will be grateful.”

“Anyway, where did you put the ax you originally used? Would you be okay with those two hatchets?”

“it’s okay. In fact, you may not be able to use an ax in the Mukryong Club.”

“hmm.”

There must be another reason. Zhuge Wenhu nodded.

“Please take care of your loss rate.”

Paeyul said with a sour face.

“Don’t worry. “Even if he gets into an accident, he sees where he’s lying and hits him.”

“Hehe, I’m not saying this because I’m afraid you’ll get into an accident.”

“I will serve well as the leader of the Murim Alliance.”

Zhuge Wenhu quenched his appetite. Paeyul’s blunt personality was very difficult to deal with.

“I understand. And Prosecutor Kang. “You too, take care of yourself.”

“yep.”

It’s a cheerful answer. Zhuge Munho chuckled and then looked at Kang Ryang with puzzled eyes.

“But why are your eyes so bright? “I had a black-and-white bruise.”

“Oh, this…”

Kangryang cleared his throat and turned his head.

The loss rate was ridiculous.

“This is the result of Kangho’s senior giving affectionate lessons to his junior.”

It was a well-spoken teaching, but at this level it seemed almost like a one-sided assault.

Zhuge Munho clicked his tongue.

“Don’t be too harsh. Still, aren’t you a senior?”

“That is something that cannot be ignored.”

Paeyul rolled up his sleeves.

For a moment, Zhuge Wenhu was speechless. Blood was still oozing out of Paeyul’s arm, which was tightly bound with bandages.

“Do you know how ferocious that crazy sword is? If I had made a mistake, my bones would have been broken into pieces. It’s a good thing it’s just a black eye. “I thought he was just a cheap guy, but I never thought he was just a crazy guy.”

Kang-ryang cleared his throat again.

Zhuge Wenhu sighed.

“Restrain yourself from now on. both.”

“I told you not to worry.”

Yeon Ho-jeong said with a smile.

“Both of them are people with a clear distinction between construction and construction. “Don’t worry too much.”

“If you say so.”

Paeyul grumbled softly. I muttered in a voice that even the person next to me couldn’t understand, and I roughly thought, ‘I’m so sad that I’m going to live.’ ‘How old am I?’ ‘If I keep doing this, I’ll end up serving as a junior servant.’ There were lines like this.

Of course, Zhuge Wenhu ignored his complaints. I couldn’t hear very well and I didn’t really have any intention of responding.

“Then I wish you luck.”

So the three people headed to Mukryongbu, Hunan Province.

Yeon Ho-jeong, who drove the horse at the front, was never in a hurry.

Rather, I rode the horse at a moderate speed that made me feel relaxed. He looked around and smiled once in a while, but it was similar to a person who went on a trip because he had nothing to do.

Paeyul asked.

“Shouldn’t we go quickly?”

“You can go in moderation. “They’re probably compiling a list of things they want me to do anyway.”

“Is that so?”

“I don’t know when I’ll be able to come back. “I don’t particularly like to immerse myself in memories, but wouldn’t it be nice to think of the scenery around here every once in a while when I feel lonely?”

“hmm.”

Paeyul glanced around.

“It’s not a memorable sight.”

“Is that so.”

With those words, Paeyul closed his mouth. Riding his horse at a similar speed to Yeonhojeong, he instantly fell into meditation.

All the time available each day is focused on martial arts training. Even though it was just meditation, Paeyul devoted himself to the practice.

Kang Ryang, who wanted to mess around, also fell into meditation while watching the defeat. Although he was quite a rough person, this part was worth learning from.

‘It’s a good combination.’

Yeon Ho-jeong looked at the two people and nodded inwardly.

‘We will clash a lot, but we will be able to provide enough help to each other.’

The strength was challenging, and the loss rate was full of strong winning spirit.

Even so, the line was not crossed. They will bicker all the time, but in the process, both of them will be able to grow quickly.

‘It’s growth.’

Ugh.

Yeon Ho-jeong contemplated his inner self.

‘We’ve established the foundation, now all that’s left to do is expand it.’

The Yeongasindan he has now trained contains four of the five major martial arts combined into one.

The shrine itself can emit an enormous amount of magical energy. The energy of the four divine techniques can be released with the desired concentration and force according to the situation.

Then, the Sasinmu that receives that power will also exert even more powerful power.

‘It’s enough now, but if you want more than that, it would be better to strike a balance.’

I learned Byeoknajingyeol the longest, and after that I learned Yongpojingi.

Compared to those two martial arts, sword fighting and stretching skills should be considered at a baby level. This means that although the understanding of Shingong was perfect, the level of softness was so-so.

‘There is no need to increase the achievements of each martial arts since we have become one as a Shindan. But it’s better for the future to have a perfect balance.’

Yeon Ho-jeong’s eyes lit up.

‘For the time being, I’ll have to focus on my sword fighting skills and kidney skills.’

I had a lot of thoughts about this and that, but it still felt good. This was because martial arts, which had been stagnant for a while, was showing signs of development again.

And where will this development end?

‘It’s Seongcheon.’

In the past, during the time of the Emperor of Darkness, he was called the greatest fighter due to his fearsome fighting skills.

At the very least, you should have more power than that. That way, future fights will be much more comfortable.

As I thought about my military achievements and my future, my thoughts naturally turned to the Mukryongbu and the Seongcheon Thirteen Pillars.

‘What is the first mission that the Inkryongbuju wants from me? At least it won’t be easy.’

During our previous meeting, I talked to Yang Cheon about various things before we parted ways.

Yeon Ho-jeong recalled the conversation at that time.

‘If you come and work with me, nothing will be as good as that. But the headquarters runs just fine without you. In other words, there is no need for you to come to the headquarters and do things like run operations or manage the combat organization.’

‘If you do that, there’s no need for me to be dispatched, right?’

‘You can come to headquarters and play. Because of you alone, many people can learn and I won’t be bored.’

‘I don’t want to come more and more.’

‘But that won’t work. In other words, you will be responsible for tasks that we would not dare to do.’

‘What is that?’

‘Well… I guess I’ll have to think about it.’

‘What are you thinking about? ‘It looks like you’ve already thought about it.’

‘Hehe, I was just thinking about it. In fact, it is desirable for black and white to join hands before the war against the three religions, but there are many masters in the martial arts world besides us.’

‘…no way?’

‘That’s just the way it is. But wouldn’t it be good for both the political faction and us if we could join hands with some of ‘them’?’

‘….’

‘Think about it for a moment. ‘I’ll think about it too.’

Yeon Ho-jeong sighed.

“Seongcheon… It’s finally that area. In many ways.”
