Dark and Light Martial Emperor

Chapter 958

Episode 958

Enlightenment (8)

The group passed through Hebei and moved to Angukhyeon.

On the way there, Yang Cheon was greatly surprised by Yeon Wei and Peng Wugang.

‘It really isn’t that easy.’

The more they talk, the more surprised he is by Yeonwi’s insight and the more impressed he is by Peng Mu-gang’s Yongin skills.

At first, I only had eyes for Yeonwi, but as time went by, I found myself admiring Peng Mu-gang more. Perhaps because he is someone I didn’t expect much from, every time he shows an unexpected side of me, it comes as a bigger surprise.

What is important is that both of them are talented enough to attract the attention of Yang Cheon, one of the leading experts in the powerhouse and the head of the Black Island Martial Arts.

‘There are not many people in the Ink Dragon who are as well trained as this.’

Both in terms of martial arts and character.

Furthermore, the ability to manage people as well as thorough self-management.

‘It’s time for a water change, though.’

The actual masters of the Mukryongbu, excluding the zodiac gods, were scattered among the elders and chairs of the combat units.

This can also be seen as due to the special nature of the black island.

The history of each individual sect in the Black Island is incomparably shorter than that in the White Island. He treats betrayal like a meal and decides everything into a battle of life and death.

Of course, once he takes his place, he does not hesitate to do all kinds of terrible things to assert his authority. In other words, the majority of organizations end up taking the path of a reign of terror.

And the moment one chooses that path, the person who gains authority faces decline.

A place where no one can touch me and if I get caught, I can kill them. Even none of the below think such a structure is strange.

What if such powerful people gather together?

Of course, there is no way the organization will run properly.

It was for this reason that when Yang Cheon first established the Mukryongbu, he had the zodiac gods in his entourage rather than the heads of the Heukdo clan.

To ensure that the organization runs smoothly, people who fit each individual’s characteristics were assigned. However, only the minimum number of private military organizations were permitted under the zodiac.

As time has passed, if the current Mukryongbu was like the Murim Alliance, the leaders of the factions who would have been at the top of the group have been moved down to the middle class.

It may be said that there is no need to be dissatisfied. However, no complaints could come out in front of the name Tuwang Yangcheon.

This could also be said to be another form of reign of terror, but at least that was the reason why the Mukryongbu was able to grow in size so far.

Even private soldiers were forbidden to the elders, who were highly skilled, and were tied to the Mukryongbu with only dreams, passion, and a considerable amount of monthly salary.

and combat units.

The leaders of numerous units trained around the Yongah Iron Team, the strongest unit in the Mukryongbu, all possessed tremendous military power.

In other words, it could be seen that the zodiac signs and the commanders of the combat units divided the roles of the Murim League servants into two.

‘Even because of the origins of the Black Island, it is impossible to converge opinions like those of the Murim Alliance. The strongest person should always sit at the head of the Black Island. However…’

Yangcheon hardened his thoughts as he watched Peng Mu-gang eating beef jerky and flirting with not only the King’s Army but also members of the Mukryongbu unit.

‘We can introduce it.’

Just as Zhuge Munho was impressed by the boldness of the Mukryongbu and wanted to establish a Murim lord as soon as possible.

Yangcheon also feels this when looking at the warriors of the Murim League. That kind of harmony is needed even in the dark.

“You’re an interesting person, right?”

Yan Wei’s words brought Yang Chen out of his thoughts.

“That’s right.”

“We don’t talk that much during our public meetings. However, I get along very informally with my subordinates. So, the officials pay more attention to their pens than they seem.”

“Because of public opinion?”

“yes. This is because there are so many people who have become friends with Pangaju. “If such a person breaks silence once in a while and presents an opinion, it is not easy for the officials to ignore his opinion.”

Yang Chen chuckled.

“He is someone who knows politics.”

“I don’t think it was specifically intentional. “I think that is Pangaju’s character.”

“It’s not politics that doesn’t betray one’s character. As Yeongaju said, it would have been difficult for a person like that to be called the head of the six families if he did not know how to show his intentions.”

Yeonwi smiled sheepishly.

“Then I am disqualified as the head of the six families. “I don’t know how to do such calculations.”

“No way. “You just won’t show it yourself, but when you analyze others, you’ll be as sharp as a ghost.”

“That’s too much praise.”

“Furthermore, the fact that you have achieved enlightenment at such a young age makes you a person worthy of being the head of the six families.”

“haha.”

As the two continued to talk loudly, Peng Mu-gang approached from a distance.

“What interesting conversations are you two having?”

Yang Chen said in a cheerful tone.

“I was mocking you.”

“Oh! “Is that so?”

Peng Wugang looked at Yan Wei with sharp eyes.

“I didn’t see it that way, Yeongaju.”

“It’s secretly fun to talk behind people’s backs.”

“I’ve accepted it. Later, I will have fun disparaging Yeongaju together with the military.”

Yeonwi, who was laughing, looked at the place where Pengmugang was.

There, the warriors of the Great King and the Dragon Guard of the Mukryongbu were having a long conversation.

“I became friends with a lot of people in just two days.”

“That’s right. “It’s all the same wherever people live.”

Yang Chen looked at Peng Wujiang with coy eyes.

In fact, it was thanks to Peng Mu-gang’s activities that the warriors of the Peng family and the warriors of the Mukryongbu began to become closer.

He didn’t really give a speech or do anything that stood out, but the moment he ate in the middle and opened the exchange with a hollow dance, black and white became one.

Not everyone can do that. Whenever the atmosphere seemed to be about to become harsh, Peng Wu-gang subtly intervened to calm the atmosphere, and at times, he put strong pressure on each other to make them feel like they were on the same page.

‘I guess that wasn’t the intention.’

In Yang Chen’s view, Peng Wugang’s skill in handling people was innate.

‘Is there someone like that at headquarters?’

At that time, Peng Mu-gang grumbled.

“Anyway, when are the samurai from Yeonga coming?”

Yang Chen looked at Yan Wei in surprise.

“Are the samurai from Yeonga coming too?”

“of course. “As the situation is so severe, wouldn’t it be impossible to leisurely train people in Gangdong?”

“Huh.”

“These are people who should have been dispatched to the military at some point. “The imperial palace is in danger, so there would be no better opportunity for Gangho to escape.”

“Interesting. From what I heard, the power of the Yeon family is the smallest among the six families, but the level of each prosecutor is superior to that of any other family.”

Peng Wugang nodded.

“Even the family’s Jinsin Festival is passed down as is, so there is no choice but to do so.”

“…!”

Yangcheon was once again surprised by Yeonwi’s distribution.

Yeonwi scratched his head and said.

“I don’t know how long it will take because the way to get there is different. However, I contacted him through an open door and he will come by Shandong, so it is not too late…”

That was then.

Beep!

The loud cries of a hawk rang out from somewhere high in the sky.

Yeonwi’s face hardened.

Yang Chen and Peng Wugang’s faces automatically became serious when they saw his face.

“Is it the imperial palace?”

“yes.”

After a while.

In the distance, a black hawk glided quickly and then descended at incredible speed.

The speed was much faster than the divine method of the Transcendent Master. Because it was so far away, it seemed a bit slow, but in reality, it came down to the ground in the blink of an eye.

Flap!

The hawk approached, flapping its wide wings, soaring slightly and landing on Yeonwi’s shoulder.

After removing the chimney from Mae’s ankle, Yeonwi immediately opened it and took out a rolled-up letter.

Yan Wei quickly read the contents and delivered the letter to Yang Cheon and Peng Mu-gang.

The eyes of both people flashed.

“It has begun.”

“We need to speed up.”

Yang Chen shouted.

“The imperial palace is under attack! “We will run without stopping for a moment, so everyone be on your toes!”

* * *

There are many masters in the imperial palace.

In particular, the officers of the imperial palace, who had previously suffered great hardships, took measures to defend the center by calling in more than 70% of the officers and masters who had left on missions in all directions.

The eyes of Geum Heon-tae, the commander-in-chief of the imperial palace guard and the strongest expert in the imperial palace, sparkled.

“That way.”

All residents of villages near the imperial palace had already been evacuated, and advance guards and spies had been stationed in their villages.

Thanks to this, they were able to detect the appearance of the enemy much sooner than expected.

Grumble.

Geum Heon-tae saw a group of people approaching. Although it was a long distance, I was able to immediately estimate the number of enemies due to my long combat experience.

‘A thousand people?’

It was clearly a force of around 1,000.

Geum Heon-tae was dumbfounded.

‘Is it possible that they decided to protect the imperial palace with only that many troops?’

Of course, since he was a super expert who was just a stone’s throw away from reaching the level of a member of the old school, he knew very well how someone who properly learned martial arts could accumulate a terrible record.

However, group warfare and war are different things. Furthermore, there is a huge difference between the group tactics learned in the military and the group warfare of the martial arts people.

If ten warriors and ten imperial soldiers fight, the imperial army will inevitably lose.

If a hundred warriors and a hundred imperial soldiers fight, the imperial army’s defeat is certain.

However, if there are 1,000 warriors and 1,000 imperial soldiers, it is difficult to guarantee victory.

As the number increases (10,000, 20,000, etc.), the power of military tactics increases exponentially. The imperial army is the ones who can respond to any extraordinary martial arts attack.

Furthermore, there are a huge number of masters in the imperial palace whose names are not known to the world.

One mistake puts His Majesty’s life in danger, but there is no such thing as two mistakes. It was not for nothing that the imperial army and masters spread across the world were gathered together.

‘There must be something. Even if the leader of the cult was an expert at the level of the Thirteenth Place in Heaven, it would be difficult to penetrate the imperial palace with that much force.’

It was such an obvious fact.

Because it was so natural, Geum Heon-tae was actually nervous.

The ministers dispatched by the Shinhwa Church had been in the imperial palace for a long time, so there was no way they would not know the true power of the imperial palace. In other words, it was judged that it would be possible to attack around 1,000 people.

Or, another force may be targeting another area of the imperial palace.

Anyway, the time has finally come.

Geum Heon-tae said to the manager.

“Raise the flag. Light a signal fire so that it can be delivered to the four armies.”

“I follow your orders!”

The moment Geum Heon-tae nodded and turned his head towards his enemies again.

‘uh?’

He saw that the 1,000 enemies that were well over 300 feet away had already approached 200 feet away.

And something was flying at high speed from behind the group.

It is not an arrow, a sword or a spear.

‘…Fireball?!’

A fireball the size of a small rock was launched after hitting as many as two hundred pieces.

Geum Heon-tae shouted.

“Get out of the gate!”

Kwaaaaang!

The fireball flew like a thunderbolt and shattered the castle gate, sending out colorful fireworks in all directions.

It was tremendous power. It was an indescribable feat of martial arts.

According to Geum Heon-tae’s common sense, even a master who had reached great heights could not have achieved such ridiculous power.

And at that moment, a solemn yet sonorous voice rang out from behind the enemy.

“Call the emperor.”
