Chronicles Of The Martial God’s Return

< Return of the Warlord Episode 99 >

The newly built Namgung family has several outbuildings.

Among them, a separate building where only the most important guests can stay. Jeok Mu-seong, who was staying there, was sitting in front of his bed, looking noticeably better than when he left Shanxi.

Kwon Moo-jin was always by his side, perhaps to provide assistance, and the sight of him never leaving his side seemed to mean more than just providing assistance.

Jeok Moo-seong looked at Kwon Moo-jin quietly and sighed.

“Isn’t it funny? “This is the appearance of the enemy.”

“no. “You are still like heaven to me.”

“ha ha ha! “He speaks well.”

Jeok Mu-seong smiled, as if he wasn’t particularly offended when he heard it. It’s the same as the polite words of the guys I saw in Emperor Wu’s Castle, but it has a completely different feeling.

There is no intention.

Kwon Moo-jin seemed to have nothing but awe and respect for Jeok Museong.

“Now there is no Emperor Wu…. What do you think?”

“…I don’t think about anything.”

Seeing this person speaking boldly, Jeok Mu-seong smiled bitterly. Even though he shows respect by helping out like this, the fact that ultimately Kwon Moo-jin’s owner is Dan Woo-hyeon does not change.

So Kwon Moo-jin couldn’t think of anything else.

Because I made that decision myself.

However, this is not the position of the Red Army.

The collapse of the Imperial Palace is equivalent to saying that a period of great chaos is coming to Sapa. Neither Jeongdo nor Demon will leave Sapa alone as he stumbles and loses his head.

In the end, there is also a possibility that the power of Sapa itself will be absorbed into one of the two.

Especially if you are Zhuge Un, you will not miss this opportunity.

There will be no better opportunity than this, as there is no enemy castle, the Emperor Wu Castle has collapsed, and the absolute masters who led the Sa Sect have been killed.

“You… do it.”

“…?!”

“After me, you… become the monarch of Sapa.”

It was by no means a hasty idea.

This is a guy who achieved his position solely through hard work. Also, looking at the fact that Dan Woo-hyeon kept him alive instead of killing him, it is like saying that Kwon Moo-jin has a bright future and is a talented person capable of leading people.

As a result of observing for a long time, Jeok Museong was planning to call Kwon Mu-jin again to succeed Emperor Mu, even if it were not for this incident.

“Uh… old man… what is that….”

“Or were you planning to watch Sapa collapse with your own eyes?”

“….”

“It is only in times of chaos that heroes emerge. “You… become that hero and bring about Safa.”

Kwon Moo-jin said nothing.

In fact, in the past, I had no desire to return to Sapa. In particular, when Jeok Mu-seong went out to Honam Danga, saying he was returning to Emperor Wu-seong, Kwon Moo-jin also wanted to follow him.

Because Emperor Wu is like his hometown.

But life isn’t bad now either.

At best, I only do some escort work, like chasing after children, but it is also true that I feel more at ease than before because I think I can live without having to kill.

But to go back there again?

“You don’t think so either, ma’am?”

At that time, Jeok Museong looked at the door and opened his mouth.

For a moment, Kwon Moo-jin, whose eyes widened, quickly turned his back. Eventually, the door squeaked open and Dan Woo-hyeon with a calm expression appeared.

“If you want to cover it, I have no intention of stopping it.”

“Haha… You have a lot of people watching over you. It doesn’t matter if it’s not Mujin. “I decided that way.”

I can’t refute it.

No, I didn’t even think about retorting.

This is because I know that what Jeok Mu-seong says is never wrong.

Just because Kwon Moo-jin is missing doesn’t mean he can’t stay by Dan So-mi’s side. That child always has a white tiger and a white cat, and Jang Sam-tae is just as talented.

Moreover, people like Namgung-cheon, Sadohak, and Bicheon-woong will also be comfortable for the next ten years, so Kwon Moo-jin’s vacancy will not be conspicuous.

It’s just… a little bitter.

“From now on… it’s going to get a little lonely.”

“Lord… Lord?! I still…”

“If there is a path you have to go, walk it.”

“…!”

“If you get tired from walking, you can come back.”

I believe that each person has his or her own way.

Dan Woo-hyeon was like that, and Nam Gung-cheon and Sadohak were the same. The path that Kwon Moo-jin is trying to take now may also be an important path that will allow him to achieve what he most desires.

A big reason is that he doesn’t want to block something that may be important in his life just because he feels bitter.

“Please stop by often.”

“…yes.”

Kwon Moo-jin lowered his head and could not bear to raise his face. The reason he falls to the floor is probably because he is grateful to Dan Woo-hyeon, who is understanding his feelings.

Also, the one word he said became a decisive moment that changed his life.

Jeok Mu-seong smiled faintly.

“From today onwards, call me teacher. And for the next few years… I will personally guide you.”

“…?!”

Looking at the person’s surprised expression, Jeok Mu-seong showed a satisfied expression. It was like looking at a child full of mischief, but his eyes were more serious than ever.

“Let’s go deep into the mountains.”

“Are you talking now?”

“So, shouldn’t you learn everything about me as soon as possible?”

Since his aging body is returning to normal to some extent and Dan Woo-hyeon has even freed up the clogged blood vessels, there is nothing particularly strange about the situation.

This is because one hour a day was a waste from the Red Army’s point of view.

“The old man is a bit short-tempered. “Are you going to leave without telling us?”

“Hehehe- I’m sorry.”

At that time, the door was opened again and Namgung-cheon and Sadohak came in. As if they had already predicted that something like this would happen, they were not at all surprised and just accepted the situation calmly.

If they were in the same situation as Jeok Mu-seong, they would definitely have been thinking the same thing.

Jeok Mu-seong looked at the faces of his friends and smiled.

It’s truly a shockingly long relationship.

But because of them, the enemy can rise again.

“Don’t go to Danga and die, just hang on for a little while. “I’m going to teach this guy stubbornly, and then we’ll have a drink and relax with you guys.”

“joy! “Don’t you die.”

“Hehe- don’t forget that you look the oldest.”

Dan Woo-hyeon looked at the three people with a calm expression.

The look in their eyes clearly shows that they trust each other. It was like the past three thousand people looking at each other.

It couldn’t be a moment when memories of the past came to mind.

So I laughed without realizing it.

Isn’t fate truly a fun thing?

I don’t know why I didn’t know this at the time.

* * *

“Um… are you really saying you’re going this fast?”

Namgung Yong tried to keep his expression as if he was trying not to show it, but he didn’t feel like leaving after only staying for two days at most.

However, he knew that it was impossible to stop Dan Woo-hyeon, who was no one else, from the beginning, and his father, Nam Gung-cheon, had already packed his bags to leave, so it was impossible to stop him.

I just wish I could stay one more day.

“How are you? “Don’t you want to stay a little longer?”

Namgung Yong quickly turned his head and looked at Sohye.

In this situation, I thought that if only Sohye was allowed, I could somehow hold them back for at least one more day.

But she shrugged.

“If I say I will stay one more day, Confucius Dan will tell me to come later and leave first. “Right?”

“You know me well.”

“Of course, grandpa will follow Confucius Dan…”

“Hehehe – have you already read that?”

Namgung Sohye nodded as if it was obvious.

It was an answer that seemed to come out without much thought.

Moreover, if that were the case, when she returned to Honamdanga later, she would have to move alone without even a companion, so she was not very pleased with Namgung-yong’s proposal.

“So I packed my bags first too.”

Namgung Sohye smiled brightly and lifted the luggage.

It feels different from the luggage she usually carries around. The size had increased a lot and the weight seemed to be considerable, and it seemed as if all the necessary things had been packed in, as if they had no intention of returning to Anhui for the time being.

“B… But I still have a lot to take care of, and… I haven’t even been able to treat you to a lot of delicious food…”

“Hehe – do we look like people who can’t eat?”

“Ugh…”

Namgung Yong had no choice but to swallow a moan.

He is none other than Dan Woo-hyeon, and by his side are Nam Gung-cheon, Sadohak, and Jeok Mu-seong. It was unimaginable that these people were not able to eat and eat, so I felt once again that no matter what I said, I couldn’t hold them back.

Finally, I let out a long sigh.

“All right. Well then… since it’s going to be a long journey, I’ll bring some things with me.”

“Hehehe – do whatever you want.”

Looking at the back of Nam Gu-yong, who quickly turned his back and ran away, Nam Gung-cheon knew that he could no longer refuse. He said he would take care of his father even in this way, but he couldn’t refuse even this.

“You’re a good boy.”

“Are you jealous? Hehe – Then why don’t you have another one too? “I have a pretty sexy girl by my side…”

“Grandpa!”

“Hehehe-I didn’t say it was you.”

At that moment, Namgung Sohye blushed brightly and glared. His eyes, like forged blades, were so cool that Nam Gung-cheon, who was smiling, had a hard time looking away.

I felt like I would get hit if I went any further.

“Then let’s try to move slowly.”

“is it so. Ugh… it feels distant to think about going back.”

It is the end of a long journey.

From Anhui to Hunan.

It won’t be a short journey, but if you think about the path you’ve taken so far, it’s no exaggeration to say that there really isn’t much left.

“If it’s long, it’s long… If it’s short, it’s short. A lot of things happened, hehe.”

Namgungcheon smiled as he briefly recalled the past.

From the moment I first left Honam until now.

Although I expected it, it was a more interesting journey than I thought. I don’t know about other people, but for Nam Gung-cheon and Sadohak, the trip to Jungwon could possibly be the last time in their lives, so they couldn’t help but feel even more special about it.

Although it wasn’t smooth sailing, it was fun.

It was the first time in a long time that I was able to enjoy myself in Moorim to the fullest.

It was a sufficiently satisfying journey.

Shouldn’t we enjoy the end even more now?

Did you feel that feeling?

Dan Woo-hyeon opened his mouth.

“It would be nice to go to Gangseo and see Poyang Lake.”

“Hehehe! That’s great! “It’s a place as beautiful as Dongjeong Lake.”

“It’s good! Why not go boating and have a drink? Hahaha!”

They were two old men already full of anticipation.
