Dark and Light Martial Emperor

Chapter 726

?Episode 726.

Invisible Eyes (1)

The loss rate was calmer than expected.

Although he seemed to want to go with him, he also seemed to have some things to organize.

It meant that his way of looking at the world was much different than before. He always wanted only fierce fighting, but after experiencing war once, he realized that there was something more valuable than fighting.

It was fortunate for Yeonhojeong.

“Are you ready?”

Yeon Ho-jeong lowered his head in response to Yang Cheon’s question.

“I will take care of it and come back as soon as possible.”

“Is there anything to be done? “I just need to see King Bi’s reaction and come back.”

“If it ends like that, I think I’ll be lucky.”

“Hmm.”

“If King Bi is truly related to the imperial palace, he can become either an enemy or an ally. “If it’s an ally, it’ll be okay, but if it’s an enemy, it could be a pretty tough fight.”

“I guess so. Even if King Bi has no ties to the imperial palace, the strong people of Seongcheon are humans who do not know where they will fall. “No matter what the situation is, it is always dangerous.”

“I guess so.”

“So you’re so armed?”

“yes?”

Yang Chen said with a sullen face.

“I’ve seen it everywhere, wearing light armor and even carrying a vicious moon sword. “It really looks like they are going to war.”

Unlike usual, Yeon Ho-jeong was wearing light armor from the Yongah Iron Team.

That wasn’t all. In addition to the grey-black helmet that resembled light armor, they also wore a black mask that exposed only their eyes, and their appearance was that of an elite cavalry soldier on a special mission.

He even holds a light dragon and a large moon sword in his hands.

Yeon Ho-jeong said.

“It was like this before, but especially while handling matters in Sichuan and Shaanxi, they are keeping a clear eye on me.”

“Of course.”

“Judging by the reactions so far, it appears that his face is not properly known.”

Whoops!

The spear of Woldo and Gwangryongbu clashed together, making a clear sound.

“With just the Light Dragon Club, they will know my identity.”

“Then why do you use such fancy weapons? “With your skills, it would be okay to use a more common weapon.”

“Because it’s the most convenient. And these axes were made by masters of the world. “The power is different.”

“You’re really handsome.”

Chiri ririn.

Yeonhojeong placed the Gwangryongbu, Gyoryongswae, and Black and White Twin Dragons on the floor of the main hall.

“I would like you to take care of it until I come back.”

Yang Chen frowned.

“Aside from that black giant soldier, are you going to leave behind a chain and a hatchet?”

“You never know.”

“Hmm.”

Yang Cheon laughed as if it was fun.

“There will be people who are not with us, so is there any reason to entrust those items to me?”

“Isn’t this a promise to come back?”

“You’re laughing. “Since when did you have such romance?”

Phew.

When Yang Chen stretched out his hand, the Light Dragon Wing and the Black and White Twin Dragon Wing Gyoryongsae flew through the air and were placed next to the Taesa.

Yang Cheon quenched his appetite.

“It’s a new weapon made from hard-to-find materials. Should I just melt it down and sell it?”

“Anyway.”

“You boring guy.”

Yang Cheon buried his back in Taesa Temple.

“Hey Hojeong.”

“yes.”

“I don’t know how things will turn out, but if anything, from now on I’ll just leave this kind of work to someone else.”

“If I could, I would.”

“It’s not for any other reason. I have overcome difficult times with my two fists my whole life, but among the masters who fought against me, most were those who cherished their weapons as if they were their own bodies. “The ‘real’ ones all breathed life into my weapons.”

“….”

“The weapon is iron. There is no life in iron. However, under their endless affection and polish, lifeless weapons become treasures that demonstrate the greatest power in the hands of their owners.”

Yang Chen shook his head.

“The missions you have undertaken so far have all been special. “You are very smart and good at handling things, so you have solved them well, but your fundamentals ultimately lie in martial arts.”

“….”

“Don’t treat Byeong-gi too harshly.”

Yeon Ho-jeong lowered his head.

“I’ll keep that in mind.”

Yang Chen smiled.

One of Yeonhojeong’s countless strengths was that kind of attitude. At times, he may be more narrow-minded than anyone else in the world, but when the other person speaks sincerely, he knows how to open his heart and accept it without prejudice.

Knowing how to accept worry as worry rather than interference. For a speaker, there is no listener who is as burdensome as this.

“Has the group been formed?”

“Preparations are complete.”

“Is there anything else I can help you with?”

“You need a horse with great endurance and experience.”

“I will tell the iron lord. “You should be able to receive it within half an hour.”

“thank you.”

Yeon Ho-jeong lowered his head.

“Then I’ll be back.”

“Hojeong.”

“Please speak.”

Yang Chen sighed.

“No. “Don’t die and come back safely.”

“yes.”

Yeon Ho-jeong left Daejeon.

Yangcheon, who was alone, buried the back of his head in the chair.

“…her.”

For some reason, I feel depressed.

Yang Chen sighed deeply.

“There is no other solution. “Since when have you been so greedy for talent?”

* * *

Yeon Ho-jeong thought as he headed out of the Mukryongbu.

‘I don’t know why.’

Sreuk.

Yeon Ho-jeong stopped for a moment and looked behind him.

Numerous workers were still carrying out construction work in the huge square. Even though I once thought it was complete, the sound of hammering continued as if there were still parts missing.

Yeon Ho-jeong’s eyes deepened.

‘Even though I know I can’t have it, I can’t give up.’

The Yangcheon he knew was a fairly neat person.

As a human being, there were times when I expressed regret, but I wasn’t the type of person to necessarily show regret over something that couldn’t be helped.

And yet, he wants me endlessly. Even though he knew that he was not a person worthy of being part of the Mukryong Club.

‘That’s how highly they think of me, but…’

Yeon Ho-jeong, who had been looking in the direction of Daejeon for a while, turned again.

After the conversation with Yang Chen, he somehow felt his mood sinking. The reason was unknown.

After a while.

“Everyone is gathered.”

Outside the entrance to Mukryongbu, there were Mukbi and Gangryang Jinyang wearing the same light armor and helmet as Yeonhojeong.

Mukbi was carrying a red lotus bow and a black javelin. Kang Ryang, who had his original sword on his waist, was holding a clunky and thick greatsword.

Jinyang, like Yeonhojeong, held up the iron sword of the iron sword given to him by the Mukryongbu.

Ki Woo-hee was in her usual uniform, and there were fifty masked people standing behind her.

Yeon Ho-jeong spoke to the masked people.

“Please take care of me.”

The masked people bowed their heads briefly.

“If a battle breaks out, you must never step out. Your top priority is to protect Representative Ki Woo-hee’s safety. “I hope you keep that in mind.”

The reserve members of the Masked Inkryongdae silently brightened their eyes.

Slurp.

The crew scattered around. Their mission has already begun.

After half an examination.

“Adjutant Yeon.”

The person who led the war horses was Hwang Seok-tae.

Yeon Ho-jeong said with a smile.

“Please take care of me.”

Hwang Seok-tae chuckled.

“I am the master of the Yongah Iron Team. “I have to give that to the vice-lord.”

“I did it.”

“He’s such a difficult person to know.”

Yeon Ho-jeong, Mukbi Kang Ryang, and Jinyang Ki Woo-hee all got on the horse.

Hwang Seok-tae took control.

“Good luck.”

Yeon Ho-jeong grabbed the gun.

“Please take good care of senior Paeyul and Jeong Gwang.”

“I understand.”

“then.”

Hee hee hee!

Five horses galloped towards the north. And fifty members of the Inkryongdae secretly followed behind them.

They leave again not long after returning.

There was a glimpse of regret in Hwang Seok-tae’s eyes as he looked at the group’s back as they walked away.

“It would be nice if you could join us.”

Although they obtained good battle horses, the party had no intention of going up by land.

“I have been contacted. Please get on the boat.”

There was a huge boat on the rippling river.

If you are an expert who is confident in divine law, Ki Woo-hee was here. Moreover, considering the members of the Mukryongdae guarding Ki Woo-hee, there was no reason to insist on the land route. In the first place, it was faster to use the waterway.

The ship was much more spacious and comfortable than it looked from the outside.

In one place, there was a dedicated space for horses. In addition, many other people were stationed here and there on the ship preparing for the voyage, and all of them behaved very neatly, as if they had been doing this their entire lives.

‘amazing.’

The ship finally sets sail.

As the ship left, about a dozen small ships followed from behind. Inside the small ship were rough-looking men who did not look very good and seemed to make a living by stealing.

They were pirates from the Yangtze River Waterway and were in charge of escorting the ship. It was clear that the Mukryongbu put a lot of care into it.

‘The work is done very smoothly and quickly.’

Mukbi internally compared the Mukryongbu and the Murim Alliance.

‘It’s different.’

For some reason, Mukbi’s face was filled with confusion as he stood at the head of the ship moving through the current and looked towards the north.

‘The Murim League is bigger than the Mukryongbu. But there is no leader yet. Even if there is a leader, it will be impossible to handle things this quickly and smoothly as it is an alliance.’

Of course, it may vary depending on how much authority is given to the leader. However, no matter how much authority one had, a one-man dictatorship was impossible for the Murim League.

On the other hand, the Mukryongbu was different.

The Mukryongbu, led by a rare hero named Yang Cheon, absolutely obeys Buju’s orders.

I was silent, having never seriously thought about the system, but now I had no choice but to think. In the first place, she also led numerous battles as the head of the Uijeonggun Army.

‘Dictatorship is bound to collapse at any time. From a systemic perspective, the limitations are clear. But… if loyal people gather under an outstanding figure in these difficult times…’

Mukbi closed his eyes.

‘Could even the Murim League be like this?’

if it is possible.

‘This year is almost over. After this year, we will elect a leader next year.’

Mukbi looked up at the sky.

The humid sky looked oddly dark.

‘There’s going to be chaos again.’

At that time, Yeon Ho-jeong came next to her.

“What are you thinking about so much?”

Mukbi chuckled.

“I’ve been worrying about a world where I don’t fit in.”

“I know? “Why are you so worried that you don’t fit in?”

“A practitioner does it.”

Yeon Ho-jeong smiled.

“Now you recognize my hard work. how is it? “Your head hurts so much, right?”

“Aside from the headache, it is impossible to make an analogy because there is no basic knowledge.”

“It’s hard even if you know, and it’s hard not to know. “That’s what happens in the world.”

Mukbi, who was quietly looking at Yeonhojeong, suddenly asked.

“How was it?”

“what?”

“Heukje Castle.”

“….”

“Was the Black Emperor at that time as fast and precise as the Ink Dragon Club of now?”

Yeon Ho-jeong looked at the river in silence.

Yeon Ho-jeong, who had been standing motionless for a while, shook his head.

“It was different from the Inkryongbu.”

“okay.”

“It was faster, more destructive, and more thorough than the Ink Dragon Club.”

“…!”

Mukbi’s eyes wavered.

Yeon Ho-jeong leaned his upper body on the leading railing.

“Buju Yang is a man full of ambition. So, I live hidden in that unprecedented cave and watch the world. But Heukjeseong was different.”

“….”

“We went outside the world and looked up at the sky. “It’s because I had clear dreams and goals, not ambition.”

“Is that different?”

“I think it’s the same but different. At least we did.”

“….”

“I just looked back and thought nothing of it. It was a group that was created by chance, but the moment I became convinced that the group could shake the world, we became the vanguard of dreams to prove that there is light even in a world painted black.”

Vanguard of dreams.

At those words, Mukbi felt his heart tremble.

Yeon Ho-jeong continued speaking in a monotonous tone.

“I went on a rampage to turn Heukdo, a world of beasts, into a world where people live. We didn’t need any great politics. “He just showed everything through his actions.”

“…I see.”

Yeon Ho-jeong, who was staring at the river, shrugged his shoulders and turned around.

“We will discuss the future. “Let’s go into the cabin.”

“yes.”

Mukbi thought as he watched Yeonhojeong moving away.

‘It doesn’t suit me.’

Yeon Ho-jeong is not suitable to be a Murim lord. Whatever it is, Yeonhojeong is too subversive to be considered a white power.

however.

‘…If it’s a black island.’

Silence’s shaking eyes began to shine little by little.

‘If that person becomes the leader of the Black Island.’

What would happen if that happens?

“What are you doing? Let’s go.”

“all right.”

A smile appeared on Mukbi’s face as he followed Yeonhojeong’s urging.

‘No matter what happens, it will be a very interesting life.’
