Episode 88
The wind does not break (6)
Two days later.
“Oh, are you here?”
“This is how we meet again.”
“Haha, that’s right.”
Prince Moyong was still the same.
Even though it was hot summer, she wore luxurious clothes that covered her sleeves and legs. Since the level he has achieved is so great, he will not be affected by the cold weather.
Yeon Ho-jeong looked at the table.
There were five or six different types of freshly prepared food on the table. All of them were expensive and fancy dishes.
Moyong-gun pointed to the chair.
“Sit there.”
“Of course.”
Yeon Ho-jeong sat down and looked around.
“By the way, aren’t you here with your daughter today?”
“softening? The child is at home. “Unlike you, I still have a lot to learn.”
Yeon Ho-jeong smiled.
“I don’t know about your martial arts skills, but your resourcefulness seems outstanding.”
“Hehe, did you see it that way too?”
of course.
Moyong Yeonhwa during the time of Emperor Heukam was a heroine who showed a level of resourcefulness that was no less lacking than that of the current Moyonggun. In fact, thanks to her resourcefulness, Saeumgyo’s forces also suffered significant damage.
Of course, Heukjeseong also suffered losses knowingly or unknowingly.
“If you sharpen it well, it will be renowned as the world’s treasured sword.”
“How great it would be if that were the case. In fact, if the child had been a boy, he could have been made the head of the small family in the near future.”
“That’s unexpected.”
“hmm? what?”
“I know how the matriarch got to that position. “Because he was that kind of person, it seemed like he didn’t care about blood or any distinction between men and women.”
Moyong-gun smiled.
He says he knows how he became the head of the family. Although the meaning behind those words was significant, he did not waver at all.
“I don’t care. But the world wasn’t like that. “If a girl becomes the head of the family, many people will point fingers at the family.”
“Is that so.”
“Being the head of a family is not a position that can be achieved through ability alone. Martial arts, resourcefulness, and personality are all important. “But only if it’s a man.”
“….”
“You also need talent that fits the times. I think gender is also part of talent. “It is the most unfortunate talent that Yeonhwa was not born with.”
It’s a lie.
After Prince Moyong became the Murim lord, he passed the family name to Moyong Yeonhwa.
To be precise, he did not let go of his position as the head of the family until then. However, as the acting head of the family, he only put Moyong Yeonhwa at the forefront.
And before the Battle of Hyeongsan took place, he gave Moyong Yeonhwa the position of head of the family and fought the last fight.
Are you feeling weak because it’s a fight you can’t promise tomorrow? at all.
That fight was a fight with a high probability of winning. He probably didn’t think he was going to die.
‘It’s something that keeps me in check.’
Yes.
Right now, he may not have any intention of handing over the position of head of the family to Mo Yong Yeon Hwa. However, Mo Yong was not a person who thought gender was a talent.
It’s just about reassuring the other person. He’s an excellent kid, but unfortunately, he can’t be the head of the family. Since he is a non-renowned person, there is nothing to worry about.
‘It’s different from before. ‘I’m paying a little more attention.’
After going through a series of events that buried a famous family, his wariness towards himself increased.
That’s why it’s hidden. Even the smallest details.
‘I need to focus on today’s conversation.’
Prince Moyong picked up the bottle.
“Are you feeling better?”
“It’s clean.”
“Hehe, it seems like it’s good to be young. Have you already recovered from such a serious injury? “You surprise me in many ways.”
This was sincere. Prince Moyong was purely surprised by Yeonhojeong’s resilience.
Yeon Ho-jeong smiled bitterly and raised his glass.
“It was a long way away.”
“Don’t go anywhere and say something like that. They get criticized. Actually, I can’t even swear easily. “Isn’t he the passionate boy who cut out the rotten pus of the Baekdo martial arts group?”
Yeon Ho-jeong wrinkled his face.
“You don’t know how tired I am because of that.”
People look at the results, not the process. If Yeon Ho-jeong, who was not a famous family, had been attacked, Yeon Ho-jeong would have been engraved in history as a villain of the world.
However, Myeongga collapsed and Yeonhojeong survived.
Only then will people begin to see the process. Why did Yeon Ho-jeong fight alone against the Myeong family and how did he deal with the Myeong family?
In this way, the three letters of the name Yeonhojeong were firmly embedded in the minds of the martial artists living at that time.
“It can be tiring. But accept it. “If you pay attention to every single thing people look at, you end up not being able to do anything.”
There was a cool energy in Yeon Ho-jeong’s smile.
“I can feel it.”
And because of you, I will feel it once more.
“Let’s have a drink.”
The two people coolly emptied their glasses.
“But why did you call me?”
“This person? Hehe, you and I joined hands and brought down the famous family. “I need to know what kind of punishment the famous family will receive.”
“I don’t want to worry about cleaning up after that.”
“Are you the kind of person who doesn’t care about the meat on the chicken bones you eat?”
“It doesn’t even leave any flesh in the first place.”
Prince Moyong shook his head.
“You are thinking wrong. Myeongga is a force that has lived for a long time with the four words ‘the best in the world’. “They are the ones who ran away because they were labeled as martial arts heroes, so they can’t go anywhere and boast about it, but they deserve to be watched for at least a few years.”
Mr. Moyong probably doesn’t know. Why does Yeon Ho-jeong say this?
Even if they abolish the Danjeon, the fake Four Gods they have learned remain in their bodies. And depending on the nature of the true energy, that energy will stay in one of the heart, liver, lungs and kidneys and constantly refresh the body.
If you are accused of being a martial artist, the minimum you will face is 10 years in prison. None of them will be able to serve the entire ten-year sentence.
“I’m sure the high-ranking people in the martial arts world will take care of that.”
Moyong-gun smiled.
I knew that Yeon Ho-jeong was truly not interested in that part. At the same time, he was urging me to tell him the real reason why he called me.
‘He’s a sharp guy.’
The more I looked at it, the more I wanted it.
And I felt wary. The more he talked, the more he felt that he was not a great man worthy of being subordinated to him.
“You are such a great person.”
“That’s too much praise.”
“Good. “Since you’re glaring at me with your eyes raised like that, I guess I’m scared so I should get to the point.”
Prince Moyong filled his glass and continued speaking.
“Do you know that you are the Hoenam Demon Head?”
“I don’t know.”
“Well I forgot. “It was called a more famous nickname than that.”
“…?”
“What about Anhui blood palace?”
For a moment, Yeon Ho-jeong’s eyes flashed.
Moyong-gun smiled.
“It seems like you know.”
I know.
‘I never thought I’d hear that name here.’
Anhui Blood Palace.
The first time I heard that name was when he was sweeping the Heukdo Murim.
It was a name I had never heard of before the family went extinct. It was a time when I had no interest in the world to begin with. How embarrassing is it that he didn’t even know about the Zhuge Dynasty’s Socheon Gidan.
However, after the destruction of the Munmun, he learned martial arts from his teacher and was able to hear about the notoriety of the enemy Anhui Blood Palace that swept the Black Island martial arts world.
That wasn’t all. He had even met Anhui Blood Palace and even shared a hand in hand.
And later, when Heukje Castle was built.
Yeon Ho-jeong appointed him as the leader of the Five Great Gods, the strongest vanguard of Heukje Castle.
‘Silence!’
Anhui blood palace, not the shrine (神弓) silent monument.
The best archer in the world who has perfected the rarely used archery technique that is difficult to achieve in martial arts to the limit.
He is a great sniper and a god of death who has gained notoriety for his monstrous skills, so much so that he can compete with other five great gods even with his bare hands.
Why does that name, Byeongho, pop out of Moyonggun’s mouth right now?
“I’ll just call Anhui Hyeolgung ‘Hyeolgung’ for convenience. “The reason blood palaces began to gain notoriety in the world was because of the bloodshed that occurred in Huenan, Anhui, five years ago.”
“….”
“He single-handedly exterminated a sect called Geumgeommun (金劍門) located in Hoenam. “Do you know Geumgeommun?”
“…I do not know.”
“Well, the Jingeommun was a fairly famous sect in northern Anhui. “They say it had a lot of military power, and in particular, as the name Gold Sword suggests, it had great financial power.”
“….”
“Geumgeommun was a sect that knew the path of righteousness. With his outstanding financial resources, whenever there was a famine, he released granaries to feed the poor people. “When Geumgeommun was destroyed, all the people in the northern part of Anhui hit the ground and wept, I guess?”
“….”
“Of course, Anhui Wulin was also excited. “There was an uproar to capture and kill the blood palace immediately.”
“I see.”
“But the blood palace disappeared without even a mouse or a bird noticing. “We dispatched professional searchers and investigators, but they couldn’t find even his footprints.”
Of course.
An archer had to have excellent physical skills to be able to demonstrate proper skills. An archer is someone who widens the distance and drives back the enemy with constant checks and shooting.
‘That gentleman was certainly capable of discussing the divine law as the best in the world.’
In addition to his nickname, Mukbi, he also had the notoriety of being a ghostly ghost. Because once it started moving, you couldn’t see it or catch it.
“He appeared at Palgongsan Mountain in Anhui not long ago.”
Palgongsan Mountain was a mountain located south of Hoenam, or Huai River.
Prince Moyong frowned.
“I don’t know why. I don’t know if it’s because of his so-called bad taste in wanting to see the home of the sect he destroyed, or some other reason. “The important thing is that he has been there for a long time.”
“I guess not many people know.”
“I saw it well. If the rumor spreads, the royal palace might run away, right? “The information is strictly controlled.”
Yeon Ho-jeong drank alcohol and tried to calm his mind.
“But why are you mentioning the author Anhui Hyeolgung?”
“Myeong Heo-rim (明虛林).”
“…?”
“It is said that the prince of a famous family who escaped is headed to Anhui. But I heard that the place he was going to escape to was Mt. Palgong.”
Yeon Ho-jeong frowned.
“Is it a coincidence?”
“I can only see it as a coincidence. “I also heard it from a man named Myeong Woo-san, who was the head of the Myeong family.”
It’s a coincidence… Is this really a coincidence?
“It is said that the famous families have set up their secret residences throughout the central plains. “It can be seen as a place like a murderer’s safe house.”
“Isn’t that the same for the other Seven Great Families?”
Moyong scratched his cheek.
“Well, that’s right. Of course, it won’t be as good as the famous ones.”
“So, there is a safe house of a famous family on Mt. Palgong?”
“That’s right. They said there are also in Hanam, but currently, countless number of martial artists in Hanam are capturing warriors from famous families who have run away. “They say the closest place, excluding Hanam, is Palgongsan Mountain.”
Yeon Ho-jeong’s eyes grew cold.
Moyong’s smile deepened.
“Why do you look at it that way?”
“Please be honest. Are you pursuing the establishment of the Murim Alliance?”
Moyong felt eerie before admiring it.
‘Is there such a thing as a ghost?’
He skipped a few steps in the conversation and said something unexpected.
The problem is that he was right. It will become known soon, but for now, only the heads of state who attended the conference know this.
“…That’s right.”
“You’re not planning on celebrating the opening of a new martial arts alliance by toasting the head of Myeong Heo-rim, the grand duke of the Myeong family, are you?”
Moyong-gun burst into laughter.
“Do you think we are both black and white? “You’re good at saying terrible things.”
“….”
“Yes, just as you said, the Murim Alliance will be established soon. “You know that my dream is to become the Murim Lord, right?”
“Are you trying to use this Myeongga incident as an excuse to push ahead in earnest?”
“Hehehe.”
Yeon Ho-jeong nodded.
“okay.”
Although he did not show it on the outside, Yeon Ho-jeong was happy on the inside.
‘good.’
You can’t have a person sit in a place where there is no organization or position.
He thought of Mo Yong-woo.
A leader who is more suited to the position of Murim Lord than anyone else.
‘If this opportunity arises for the Murim Alliance, it would be better for me. ‘Good.’
Unlike Yeon Ho-jeong, who was happy, Mo Yong-gun’s heart was as cold as ice.
‘That won’t work. I have to do something to end this. ‘This guy is too dangerous.’
Yeon Ho-jeong asked.
“Does telling me this important information mean that you want to join hands with me again?”
Moyong grinned.
The eyes were not smiling.
“That’s right.”
“I will ask you directly. What can I get?”
After all, this guy is the same type as me.
Moyong, who hid his inner thoughts, took out a document.
“What is that?”
“It’s a permit.”
“A permit?”
“Everything in the family declared as a martial arts official belongs to the martial arts alliance. “The property, martial arts books, and even the elixir that I had.”
“…?”
“If you capture Myeong Heo-rim, I will allow you to view the martial arts books of the famous family. “This is the permit that makes that possible.”
Yeon Ho-jeong’s eyes sparkled.
“Of course, you can replace it with something else. “You can go ahead and replace it with what you need.”
“….”
“What are you going to do? Would you like to catch Myeong Heo-rim?”
“Before that, let me ask you something.”
“You tell me.”
“Why me?”
Moyong-gun smiled again.
“A young tiger from Gangdong. The rare Pungwoonah who fought alone against the greatest family in the world for his family. King of Sopae or Reincarnation of Six Sons.”
“….”
“These are all words to describe you. You have sufficiently proven your abilities to the Baekdo martial arts team. “It goes without saying to me.”
“….”
“You must be ambitious too. “Shouldn’t we shake off all the remnants of our past and grow by helping each other if there is anything we can do?”
Yeon Ho-jeong, who was looking at Mo Yong-gun with transparent eyes, smiled for a moment.
“Would you like a drink?”
It was acceptance.
Mo Yong laughed out loud.
“As expected, it’s great. I thought you would accept. “Now, you get a drink too.”
The two people burst into laughter and shared a drink. The way they looked at each other showed a deep sense of kinship and even goodwill.
But they both knew that what they were showing to each other was a complete act and a lie.
Another incident filled with fate and evil came to Yeonhojeong.
