Dark and Light Martial Emperor

Chapter 743

Episode 743

Blood-stained throne (4)

Sreuk.

Three people stood up at the sight of a presence outside.

It was already past midnight and the celebration was approaching. Since there had been no contact until then, the three naturally had no choice but to be nervous.

Zhuge Yan opened his mouth.

“Are you the North Heaven Commander?”

“exactly. “I’m going in.”

It’s a different voice than before. I could feel some embarrassment in his uniquely blunt and deep voice.

“I will not be able to meet Her Majesty the Empress today.”

Peng Wugang asked.

“Has something happened?”

Asking such a question to the Empress may itself be an act of lese majeste, but Doban did not care about that. It seemed like there was no need to worry.

“You went to the palace at the request of His Majesty the Emperor.”

“…?!”

It was an ambitious time. No matter how much the emperor was, it was unreasonable for him to call the empress at this time.

Zhuge Zhen’s face hardened.

There was no point in worrying about a few trivial things right now.

“By any chance, Taegam?”

“I don’t know. “I have not yet figured out whether the Grand Master went to Your Majesty’s residence first or whether Your Majesty called him.”

In any case, this means that Taegamdo also headed to the royal palace.

There was tension on everyone’s faces.

At that time, Yeonwi said.

“It’s dangerous.”

The three people looked at Yeonwi.

Yeonwi continued speaking with a stiff expression on her face.

“Not even a day has passed since we entered the palace. However, if the Prime Minister’s intelligence is excellent, there is a possibility that he would have realized that Her Majesty the Empress was up to something.”

Doban’s eyes wavered.

“If this was done by the Grand Master, it could be detrimental to the existence of Her Majesty the Empress.”

“Just in case, the direct officials of the General Military Department followed along.”

“Under the governor, there will be masters beyond imagination. “I won’t go to that extent, but if you plan to see blood, it may be difficult to protect Her Majesty even if the entire General Military Department steps forward.”

It was not the time to hurt your pride. Doban’s face suddenly turned pale.

But he also believed in something.

“I don’t think so, but as the head of the family said, we can’t rule out just one case. So we have prepared something.”

“preparation?”

“Let’s go to the general’s office.”

The eyes of the three people lit up.

Doban said urgently.

“The general will also leave. “I would like you three to disguise yourself as the general’s direct subordinates and go with me.”

This too was going too far.

No matter how much the emperor’s status has fallen, he plans to disguise Kangho’s military officers as the general’s subordinates and bring them to the royal palace.

This means that Doban is pledging allegiance to the Empress and the General, but if you think of it the other way around, it also means that hundreds of years of resignation are the same as the wind.

Aside from everything else, the emperor did not call the general, the empress’s brother. Nevertheless, there was a risk that bringing in even a small number of troops could be seen as a mutiny.

In other words, this situation could be dangerous not only for the Empress and the General, but also for the three people involved.

The three people looked at each other.

Peng Wugang nodded vigorously.

“Let’s go quickly.”

Did you say that life is always a series of surprises?

However, Yeon Ho-jeong had never been more surprised than at this moment.

“You want me to catch and eat the black sword?”

“Yes.”

“What does that mean all of a sudden?”

“Your eyes are shaking very brightly. Hehe, do you understand now? What was the worry lurking in your heart? “What are the worries you have been trying to ignore, even though they are old and smell like mold?”

“….”

Yeon Ho-jeong’s face, looking at Tak Mu-ja with cold eyes, was one of confusion itself.

“How did you know what happened so far?”

“hmm?”

“What happened in Sacheon and the poisoning of Yongdu Ark. And my…”

Yeon Ho-jeong paused for a moment and glared at Tak Mu-ja with slightly bloodshot eyes.

“I had no idea that the intelligence power of independent factions was so great.”

Takmuja snorted.

“They are truly funny guys. Even though they are my subordinates, I do not have a simple relationship with them. Now that we have set foot in a bloody river, we should make an effort to survive there, but the current shaman faction is starting to deviate little by little. Now, even if it is a decent Murim Bangpa, there is no awkwardness.”

“….”

“But thanks to that, I was able to get a glimpse of how the world is going while living here.”

“Did you hear this from non-partisan informants?”

“Is it written only after Taoist monks run around here and there trying to gather information? “It’s information that comes from the top of the page.”

“But that’s not enough…”

“I’m definitely close to Yongdu Ark.”

Yeon Ho-jeong’s eyes sparkled.

‘I guess so.’

A peak full of beauty. This environment is so bizarre that even masters of martial arts can feel abnormal signals in their senses.

And the swordsman Takmuja.

Because of the conversation between the environment and the characters, I began to wonder if Takmuja really had abilities that only immortals could use.

Even Yeonhojeong of the world had such thoughts for a moment, showing how outstanding Zhuo Muzi’s natural presence was.

“It’s not just that. We don’t know everything about the world. “I’m just looking closely at a few people who are causing trouble in the world.”

“….”

“One of them is yours.”

“….”

“A passionate boy who fought against the Nine Ju Myeong Family who were attacking his family and drove them to extinction. He gained a reputation as the best reviewer in the world, and before we knew it, he was a fierce flame who was traveling across the central plains and solving all kinds of cases.”

“….”

“Of course, even Taengjung, who lives far away, will be keeping an eye on you.”

Daengjung lives far away.

There was no way I didn’t know who it was referring to. But that wasn’t the important thing.

Yeon Ho-jeong felt embarrassed.

“why?”

“why? What a stupid question. Is it possible that you were not even aware of the kind of tectonic changes that the matters you personally took action to solve would cause in the world?”

“…!”

Of course not. You couldn’t have known that unless you were an idiot. However, Yeon Ho-jeong was just not interested in how the problems he had solved were viewed by the world.

He had a lifelong goal. And in order to achieve that goal, there was no need to think deeply about how the world viewed oneself or why the world was watching oneself.

‘ah!’

Yeon Ho-jeong finally realized.

The reason why Zhuge Liang always puts himself forward at important moments.

The reason why Yang Cheon leaves many of his subordinates alone, worries about what is happening in various parts of the central plains, and then sends them on a sortie.

And sometimes, the reason why they looked at themselves was absurd.

‘I knew it. But I didn’t understand.’

There was no awareness.

Even though people around him praised him for the problems he solved, Yeon Ho-jeong just smiled and did not feel the slightest pride.

Because it was something that had to be done. This is because, regardless of agreement or justice, it was a matter that had to be tackled at all costs in order to achieve one’s goal.

Things that can happen at any time on the way to your goal.

Something like that could happen tomorrow or even now. If that happens, Yeon Ho-jeong will immediately rush out and try to resolve the issue.

Because it has to be done that way. At least for Yeon Ho-jeong.

“You are already standing in the middle of the vast Central Plains and receiving everyone’s attention.”

“…!”

“You’re young? Because they are young, the impact is greater. “There are many people who are jealous and suspicious, but because you don’t pay attention to what those people think, the world is watching you even more.”

Takmuja’s clear and deep eyes suddenly flashed sharply.

“In a way, if we were to just consider your immediate influence, you could be said to be ahead of the masters of Seongcheon. because? “It’s because you are fighting against some group that is trying to burn down the central plain.”

“….”

“No one can move like you. It is not a question of level of ability. Some people are trying to achieve Buddhism, some people are trying to follow Tao, and some people are unable to step forward because of an unchanging sense of belonging. But not you.”

“….”

“I got through it all with determination at a young age. Even the head of the Yeonga family, who was called the judge and had strict distinctions between public and private affairs, left his son free to roam the world.”

Zhuo Wuzi’s eyes, which had been sharpened, became soft again.

“The four guys galloped forward without any hesitation, and each step they took was shaking the world. “There is no way not to keep an eye on it.”

Yeon Ho-jeong swallowed his saliva without realizing it.

I had heard similar things before, but there was something different about what Takmuja said. It contained similar, yet much more fundamental content and questions.

“Do you understand?”

“….”

“Before using force, you would have already risen to the top of the world just by that influence alone.”

At that moment, Yeon Ho-jeong felt a chill.

The pinnacle of the world.

Those words came from the mouth of no one else but one of the closest people to the world at the time.

A word that was not easily heard even during the time of the Emperor of Darkness.

“But for some reason, I got a strange feeling whenever I heard rumors about you.”

“…What is that?”

“You are clearly descended from the Yeon family, a member of the Baekdo political faction. Even before age is considered, your soul, bones, and flesh definitely came from Yeonga. “I see it in my eyes.”

“….”

“But the blood flowing through your body is never heading towards the right path. “The blood reveals the primal life of beasts that is much more cruel and difficult to understand with fundamental human sensibilities.”

“…?”

“It’s a black road.”

“…!”

“Yangcheon is now Lord of the Inkryong? I heard you did quite a lot by holding hands with that person, right? If you listen to the information from that time, the impression is completely different from when you were in the Murim Alliance. “It wasn’t a matter of efficiency, but your movements themselves were different.”

“Of course…”

“Because you are a member of the Ink Dragon Club? it is not so. Absolutely not. And this you too will be aware of.”

Yeon Ho-jeong’s eyes wavered.

Zhu Muzi stuck out his head and looked straight into his eyes.

“And now, looking at the rare Pungwoonah sitting before my eyes, I am convinced.”

“….”

“The place where your blood is heading is not the Murim Alliance. “This is not the way to handle everything through proper consultation and clear perspective.”

“….”

“Furthermore, you yourself will understand. “What kind of life should I live and what decisions should I make?”

“I am the eldest son of the Yeon family.”

“No matter what choice you make in the future, you will know where the road you need to head right now leads. And…”

Takmuja straightened his posture.

“You will also understand that this path is one of the surest ways to prevent the bloodshed that will hit the midfield.”

Yeon Ho-jeong clenched his fists without realizing it.

Takmuja smiled.

“When I see you struggling in the middle, there are times when I want to run straight to the peak, call the executives of the Murim Alliance and Yang Cheon, and hit their heads. But don’t they have their own circumstances?”

“….”

“If you want to move properly, if you want to measure heaven and earth with the perspective from the peak.”

“….”

“Become the king of the dark island.”
