Dark and Light Martial Emperor

Episode 71

Enmity (怨讐) and Enmity (原水) (1)

There are many true incidents and accidents in the world.

Thousands of crimes will occur every day without people knowing. And of those, less than five percent of cases will be resolved with the culprit caught.

It’s the same in any region. Although professional investigators are trained at government offices or military departments, the number of them is small and the land mass of Jungwon is so large that many cases are buried in the dark.

Unsolved criminal cases. A serious crime that neither the government nor the military could solve.

Among them, the unresolved cases that occurred in Jiangsu Province began to surface around the time the warm spring weather was getting hotter.

The shocking rumor started in Hanam and spread to nearby areas.

And the main character of the rumor was Yeon Ho-jeong, the eldest son of Byeoksan Yeonga.

Yeon Ho-jeong, the culprit of the Huisan fire in Jiangsu Province five years ago.

Yeon Ho-jeong, the culprit of the mass suicide of the Haemin family in Jiangsu Province five years ago.

Yeon Ho-jeong, the culprit of the murder of a courtesan in Sangju, Jiangsu Province three years ago.

Yeon Ho-jeong, the culprit of the fire incident at Taihu Main Building in Jiangsu Province two years ago.

It is highly likely that he may have committed other similar crimes, including fire, murder, and rape.

Yeonhojeong. The eldest son of Byeoksan Yeonga.

In the past, he was called a fortune-teller, but in recent years, he has gained a reputation as a gwangpungsa due to his outstanding martial arts skills.

It is said that the descendants of that famous family committed countless crimes in Jiangsu Province. And all of those cases remained unresolved.

The impact of the rumor was tremendous. They whispered that not only Moorim but also government officials should find out whether it was true or not.

No one knew where the rumor started.

It is not easy for unsourced rumors to spread so quickly. Many people looked at Yeon Ho-jeong with disgust, but those who thought deeply could immediately realize that this situation was not normal.

People who criticize Yeon Ho-jeong, people who try to keep an eye on the situation, people who notice something strange, etc.

Yeonhojeong finally appeared in Hanam, which was in turmoil.

* * *

Jumble.

Yeonhojeong’s steps were refreshing. And Chang Eung-dae’s steps following behind him did not falter even an inch.

People retreated left and right all at once to avoid them.

There was no murmur.

Yeon Ho-jeong and his party, crossing the wide canal and heading towards Heochang, looked very majestic.

Flap!

Surprisingly, about a dozen members of the response team were holding flagpoles that were over one and a half long.

On the flag hung on the flagpole, the words Byeoksan (碧山) and Yeon (燕) were written in large letters in elegant calligraphy.

It is a procession of the Byeoksan Yeonga, a member of the Seven Great Families and praised as a great family. The procession was as majestic as that of a triumphal general.

And at the head of the group was Yeon Ho-jeong.

I don’t know where I got it, but over my pure white military uniform, I wore a loose white long cloth that went down to my calves. His slim physique, handsome face, and flawless white clothes made him look very noble.

This was the reason why people could not bear to openly criticize Yeon Ho-jeong and his group even after seeing them.

Because they are part of the Seven Great Families? Or is it because they are a group of swordsmen who move around while maintaining sharp alert?

Not like that.

Most people’s eyes were focused on Yeonhojeong. They were not even frightened by the bloody ax that Yeon Ho-jeong was holding.

Ugh.

Step by step.

Every time I took a step, a mysterious light blue haze rose from beneath my feet.

The character Yeon Ho-jeong itself is special. People thought so. Whether he was holding an ax or not, people did not dare to open their mouths due to the dignity of a strong civil servant with an incision as straight as a bamboo.

It was an overwhelming appearance.

The infinitely rough and ferocious Emperor of Darkness also has this appearance. At times, he knows how to show a mysterious side that shakes the hearts of the audience.

‘That’s amazing.’

Lee Cheol-gyeong, who was looking down at Yeonhojeong from the top of a high castle tower, stuck out his tongue.

‘Hanam is evaluated as the center of martial arts in the Central Plains thanks to Shaolin and Myeongga. Even if the opponent is a martial artist, the angry public does not think about the opponent’s power or prestige.’

In other words, it is normal for even the powerless civilians to openly boo.

But look at that scene. No one is opening their mouths, as if they can even hear the sound of ants passing by. There wasn’t even the slightest murmur.

Because I was overwhelmed.

The mysterious prayer that the being named Yeon Ho-jeong was emitting completely silenced the audience.

‘What an amazing young man.’

Something like that might be something you were born with, but it is impossible unless you are someone who has worked with countless people.

However, since the terms and conditions were not reached, such an experience cannot be possible. In other words, the innate dignity is so great.

‘At least if you look at it this way, it doesn’t look like you committed a crime.’

Lee Cheol-kyung shook his head.

‘Let’s not jump to conclusions.’

Most of those who accumulate bad karma are people who don’t look like they would. If you think about it that way, Yeonhojeong also cannot be free from this evil rumor.

As Yeon Ho-jeong moved, Lee Cheol-kyung also moved to another building.

Sarah.

It was an amazing new law.

I kicked off the roof with just the strength of my ankles, and before I knew it, my body had climbed to the top of the building I was aiming for.

Even before the accomplishments, the level of the divine law itself was outstanding. It was the ultimate divine method of moving the whole body without a single movement.

People revered this divine law and called it the Diamond Immovable Body Law.

‘Anyway, it’s slower than I thought. If we keep going like this, it won’t be until the end of the night… Huh?’

Lee Cheol-kyung turned his gaze to the south.

There was surprise on his face.

‘Famous family?!’

There was a group of people coming up the Guandu from the far south.

It was a famous house.

About a hundred warriors came up in line with Oh, and the speed was quite fast. As if they had woven it, they were holding a flag with the four letters ‘Nuju Myeongga’ written on it, just like Yeon Ho-jeong and his group.

Lee Cheol-kyung concentrated his eyesight.

Ugh!

The majestic energy that surged from the dantian rapidly raised his eyesight.

‘Blue Hall?’

There were numerous military organizations distributed under the famous family.

Among them, there is an organization called the Five Elements Hall, which is divided into five organizations: red, blue, black, white, and yellow.

The blue hall of the Five Elements Hall symbolizes wood, and they were all spearmen who were skilled in the art of spearing.

‘Of course you knew about Yeonhojeong’s appearance. But…’

Lee Cheol-kyung was secretly curious.

‘Why the Blue Party?’

He only found out yesterday that the Myeong family had dispatched troops to capture Yeon Ho-jeong.

I don’t know anything else, but it was certain that they had sent a top expert from the Cheong Military Academy and warriors from Ho Myeong-jeon. And it was said that Yeon Ho-jeong defeated them alone.

What was even more surprising was the battle with the blue langur.

It is not yet clear whether the blue langurs belong to a famous family, but it is said that Yeon Ho-jeong fought against 70 blue langurs and killed them all.

Lee Cheol-kyung couldn’t believe it. Actually, it was still hard to believe.

Regardless of whether they were strong in martial arts or not, Cheongnanggui were experts in murder. A young man who couldn’t reach an agreement single-handedly exterminates those bloody-smelling bastards?

‘It must have been waterproof. But…’

Whatever the reason, even a famous family would not be unaware of Yeonhojeong’s power.

However, the Blue Party was dispatched. If a battle breaks out without words, it will be difficult for the Blue Party to stop Yeonhojeong and Changeungdae.

But why did they bother sending the Blue Party?

thud!

Ogok, head of the Blue House, took the spear. Then all the Blue Party leaders stopped moving.

Before we knew it, Yeon Ho-jeong and his party were approaching from a distance of twenty feet away from the Blue Party.

Ogok shouted.

“Listen to Yeon Ho-jeong, the eldest son of the Yeon family and a suspect in unsolved crimes in Jiangsu Province! Drop your weapons right then and there and obediently go to Myeongga…”

Ogok was unable to continue speaking.

Yeon Ho-jeong did not stop walking. Even though we are seeing that the Blue Party is still standing strong.

“Arrogant bastard.”

Death appeared in Ogok’s eyes.

How can I not even flinch once? They do not care at all about the existence of the Blue Party.

In this way, Yeon Ho-jeong and his group narrowed the distance to ten feet.

Ogok shouted again.

“If you don’t stop on the spot, we will forcefully transport you away!”

Still, it doesn’t stop. The walking speed was the same, and the sharp airway did not waver at all.

The distance was narrowed down to five chapters.

Ogok, who was glaring at Yeon Ho-jeong, shouted.

“Geochang!”

Wooooow.

A hundred Blue Party members aimed their spears forward.

Ogok raised his spear and shouted.

“The Blue Party has identified suspect Yeon Ho-jeong…!”

It was then.

bang!

Ogok’s eyes were wide open as if they were torn.

I felt like taking a strong step forward, but before I knew it, it was right in front of me. Behind the hem of the long cloth fluttering in the wind, an ax the size of a human body was raised high into the sky.

Ogok, surprised, raised his spear.

Yeon Ho-jeong coolly struck down the ax.

Wow! Pow!

The ax that split the spear shaft split the five grains lengthwise.

Fuwaaaaak!

Fresh blood spurted out.

It looks like red dye was dropped on the rice paper. The pure white long cloth worn by Yeon Ho-jeong was stained with five grains of blood.

“All of them, head of the family!”

“this guy!”

It was then.

Whiiingling!

A small, pure white wind shape gathered around the bloody axe.

The white tiger, burning with deadly energy, formed the fighting spirit of the Tiger King.

bang!

Yeon Ho-jeong took one step forward and swung the ax.

Damn it! Kwarung!

“Aaaah!”

“Ugh!”

Swipe once and sweep away.

The overwhelming light wind spread by Dok2 blew away the fifteen spearmen at the front.

The spears held by the spearmen were broken. Fifteen Changsu’s hands were severely damaged or completely cut off. In an instant, the line was broken.

Yeonhojeong, who disrupted the ranks of the entire Blue Party with a single action.

He said in a calm voice.

“Exterminate the enemy.”

“Jonmyeong!”

Chaaaaang!

Yeon Ho-jeong, who wore an ax on his shoulder blade, was attacked by prosecutors who rushed over him and struck him with merciless attacks.

Suddenly! Kaaaaang!

“Aaaahhh!”

“Raise the car window!”

It became a mess in an instant.

The spacious Guando quickly became a place of chaos. The civilians who were watching Yeonhojeong move screamed and fled in all directions.

Pow! Sigh!

“Stop it! Stop it!”

“You bastards! How dare you touch us… Argh!”

Changeungdae’s sword was cold.

It was a killing sword wielded without any mercy. Chang Eung-dae, who saw Yeon Ho-jeong’s overwhelming martial arts skills, used amazing sword skills that were not ashamed of the Grand Duke’s martial arts skills.

It was a moment when the Blue Party collapsed.

The leader died, the ranks were disorganized, and the force was overwhelmed. Moreover, the inaction of Chang Eung University could not even be compared to that of the Blue Party.

This was not a confrontation, but a one-sided massacre. The Changeungdae thoroughly exploited the opponent’s loopholes and quickly killed the Blue Party members.

In the middle of the battlefield.

Yeon Ho-jeong leisurely crossed the battlefield as if it had nothing to do with him. The blind-eyed Changsu attacked Yeonhojeong, but the Changeung prosecutors did not let them do it.

Just like that, some time has passed.

Changeungdae, which destroyed the Blue Party without a single casualty, followed behind Yeonhojeong.

Flap!

The ten members who had been stabbed raised the flagpole again. They leisurely headed south along Guandu.

There was fear on the faces of the civilians.
