Dark and Light Martial Emperor

Episode 89

Different Dreams (1)

A time past midnight.

Prince Moyong, who had sent Yeonhojeong off, was drinking alone while looking at the cooled food.

“How long has it been since I drank this much alcohol?”

He was someone who had tried to suppress his inner energy and was drunk. Thanks to this, my neck and face turned red.

Moyong smiled faintly.

He was thinking about his conversation with Yeon Ho-jeong.

‘But this permit. ‘Isn’t this useless?’

‘her! What kind of rude thing is that? It has the seal of the Moyong family head on it.’

‘If I don’t trust the other person, I don’t trust the evidence they give me. Also, we analyze the situation before trusting the other person. ‘Aren’t you and me too greedy for us to trust each other and proceed with our work?’

‘….’

‘I’ll leave this behind. ‘Please buy me a drink later.’

Moyong-gun looked at the permit placed next to him.

“…He’s like a snake.”

amazing.

He is truly an amazing talent, no matter how many times I say he is amazing.

“Look at you, Hojeong. But that’s it. “You’re all good, but you overlooked one thing.”

Tsutsutsu.

The permit flew away in a hurry and landed on the greasy food.

“An angular stone is the right thing to do. They say that a person of excellence is someone who is recognized by everyone even if he does not reveal himself, but this is not a common saying in the world of power. Do you know why?”

He mutters as if Yeon Ho-jeong is next to him.

Moyong grinned.

“Murim people have a lot to worry about. I can’t leave the protruding awl alone. “Once the awl appears to be sticking out, it grabs it and twists it away.”

It’s too good to just leave it alone.

He is smart and quick-witted. I know how to grasp the context of a task at a glance and how to create a flow by combining situations.

You should never give a guy like this too much information. This is because information is analyzed and combined to identify the true intention lurking behind it.

Additionally, you should not give too much time. Even if there is no information, you can somehow find out and see what happened.

He was a difficult guy. So you shouldn’t just leave it alone.

“If possible, I wish I could taste some bitterness in Anhui. “Isn’t that so?”

Prince Moyong looked back.

To my surprise, Jang Han, in his forties, was standing in a corner of the room with his arms crossed.

“Did you know?”

“haha! of course. “How could I not recognize your unique wind-like strength?”

Zhang Han’s eyes sank deeply.

The moment he showed off his popularity, he was giving off a subtle sense of intimidation like fog. He wasn’t an average expert.

“Maybe you should have come sooner. “You too could have seen Yeon Ho-jeong’s friend.”

“I’m not interested.”

“Hehe, it’s still the same.”

“So I only need to spray it at Namgung House?”

“That’s right. “You know this, but the source of the information must never be revealed.”

“Namgung Gaju is a sharp person. “I am not a person who can trust information without a source.”

“I’m not the kind of person who just suffers at the same time. “I’m sure they’ll make a move even if they’re just curious.”

“Can I ask one question?”

“Ask.”

“Why are you so concerned about this guy Yeon Ho-jeong?”

Mo Yong-gun’s eyes turned cold for a moment.

“Because it’s so outstanding.”

“That much?”

“He’s the one who didn’t even reach the terms. I’m nervous about that guy. Even when I drove out my brothers and took over as head of the family, there was no one like him.”

“….”

“Do you understand what I mean? It means that at that age, he is a monster who sees what I see the same way. “He’s even excellent at martial arts.”

“….”

“If it grows like this, I don’t know what a terrifying monster it will become in the future.”

Jang Han felt his heart grow cold.

He knew Prince Moyong well. I knew his abilities and character.

So I didn’t trust him, but at the same time I couldn’t escape him.

‘A talent that would make even Lord Moyong of the world nervous…’

Jang Han opened his mouth.

“What if he finds out?”

“It doesn’t matter. Even if I knew it was a trap, I wouldn’t fight back.”

“How can you be sure of that?”

Moyong-gun smiled.

“Because he knows the fear of public opinion. So, aren’t we also leaking information to the Nangong family?”

“….”

“Affection is such a scary thing. And pride is as scary as that affection. “For the Namgung family, Yeon Ho-jeong is that kind of person.”

“….”

“Now, let’s get started.”

Prince Moyong raised his glass.

“The results don’t matter. What’s important is conflict. “Whether it dies, gets smashed, or comes back alive, it will be a very interesting experience to watch.”

* * *

Yeon Ho-jeong, who returned Chang Eung-dae to her home, became alone for the first time in a while.

Boom!

Yeonhojeong’s movements climbing the mountain path were cheerful.

It was not the speed of someone running with 80 pounds of iron on their shoulders. It could easily be called a first-class divine law.

‘It’s a bit difficult as expected.’

I was training a new method using only the minimum amount of internal energy.

It was different from when I returned from the late index meeting and practiced Jin Gak. At that time, I was pulling it up with maximum force, but now I was lightly pushing it away with minimum force.

The five characters of Gyeong (輕), Chu (推), San (散), Bal (發), and Yu (柔) are the essence of Gyeongsinjutsu (輕身術).

You can say that you have reached the state only when you have completely mastered the five essentials and are able to operate them all unconsciously.

‘It’s still not enough.’

The Sasinmu that Yeon Ho-jeong learned is worthy of being called the best in the world.

However, he did not learn the divine law separately. It was like that even during the time of the Emperor of Darkness.

What mattered was fighting and killing, not tracking. Moreover, even though Shinbeop was not exceptional, his physical strength was the best in the midfield, so he did not get tired even after running for several days.

But now it is different.

‘The new law needs to be strengthened. Even if it’s just so that I don’t have the same regrets as before.’

At least during the time of the Emperor of Darkness, there were subordinates who could be trusted and entrusted to him. But now I had to do everything alone.

‘You have to know how to do everything. You have to be an all-rounder.’

Boom!

The speed was accelerated.

Even after a day or two, Yeonhojeong did not stop. When I was tired, I drank water and ate rice balls. I didn’t even sleep.

It was not until the third day that he reached Daeja-ja on an unknown mountain.

It was an ignorant training method. It was fortunate that he didn’t die.

The next day, after sleeping for more than six hours, he ran toward Mt. Palgong, practicing spiritual techniques again.

After a few days, we were finally able to enter Anhui.

Shoot!

Heavy rain poured down.

It was expected to rain for the next three or four days.

Yeon Ho-jeong decided to stop practicing divine law. If we had entered Anhui, it would have been safe to say that we had slowly entered the battlefield. From now on, I had to increase my stamina and maintain perfect condition.

Clap! Clap!

I fell several times while coming down a wet mountain path.

After descending the mountain for a while, he was finally able to enter a large camp called Sanyinjeong in Taihua County, Anhui.

“Please give me a south-facing room on the top floor of the sponsorship. “Please give me some bath water.”

“Oh, I understand.”

I was afraid that I might be treated as a beggar, so I took out a gold cloth. Jeomsoy’s eyes and posture completely changed.

There were a lot of people on base.

However, no one thought that Yeon Ho-jeong was the person in the rumors. Although he was holding an imposing axe, his appearance was very shabby.

It was fortunate. Because I just hate being tired.

“Ugh.”

After two examinations.

After taking a bath and eating all the food on the table, Yeon Ho-jeong collapsed on the bed.

“…I practice really ignorantly. Are you really the Emperor of Darkness?”

next day.

Yeon Ho-jeong, who slept all day and only opened his eyes at sunset, suddenly woke up to the strange sign of popularity outside the window.

“Okay. “Who?”

Surprisingly, a calm voice was heard from the roof above the window.

“I came from Hwangpungjeong (荒風亭).”

“Hwangpungjeong?”

“It’s the intelligence organization of the Moyong family.”

“ah.”

I had requested the necessary things from Prince Moyong. One of them was information.

Anhui Province was an area tightly controlled by the Namgung family. However, because it was so big and wide, it was impossible to check everything one by one.

This was the reason why Hwang Pung-jeong’s informant could exist in Anhui Province.

“An interim report. “I will come back at this time tomorrow.”

“effort.”

Sreuk.

A neatly bound letter flew in from outside the window.

The way things are done is different from openness. The opening was more scattered than these, but that was only cosmetic, and it was much more organized and professional.

I understand why Openness is called the best information organization in the hundred provinces.

Yeon Ho-jeong opened the letter.

“hmm.”

Sleep and fatigue disappeared in an instant.

“It came sooner than I thought.”

Even though I chose a mountain path to practice spiritual methods, I came faster than Myeong Heo-rim. Myeong Heo-rim was currently unable to escape Hanam.

It had to be that way. Myeong Heo-rim must be moving around under extreme tension and paying attention to his surroundings.

Of course, Hwang Pung-jeong’s informants could not accurately determine Myeong Heo-rim’s location. I only knew roughly where he was based on his traces.

‘If you start tracking him from behind, he won’t stop by Mt. Palgong. It would be better to go first and wait.’

The letter also included the location of a safe house on Mt. Palgong.

Of course, even if you know the location, you can’t go in. Because you will need a unique method for entry and exit. All you have to do is wait in front of it.

“then.”

Yeon Ho-jeong’s eyes deepened.

“I guess we can meet in advance.”

Actually, there was no need to accept this job. Because Mo Yong-woo was 10,000 times more important to him than Myeong Heo-rim.

But I couldn’t ignore the fact that Mukbi was here.

A small smile appeared on Yeon Ho-jeong’s face.

“What was that gentleman’s younger days like?”

Mukbi was a quiet person. Of course, I didn’t even know the past history. He even always wore a mask. The only person who saw Mukbi’s true face was Yeonhojeong.

Yeon Ho-jeong’s smiling face gradually became indifferent.

“It’s called Geumgeommun.”

Why did Mukbi destroy Geumgeommun?

The Mukbi he knew was not the kind of person who would shoot arrows for no reason. Even though he possessed extreme martial arts skills within three fingers of the Black Emperor Castle, he did not kill carelessly.

He was a man who knew restraint and responsibility. So Yeon Ho-jeong preferred to remain silent.

Yeon Ho-jeong turned his wrist.

There was a crunching sound and my entire arm felt cool.

“Let’s move slowly.”

I wasn’t even hungry because I thought I would soon meet Mukbi. Well, I ate a lot yesterday before going to bed.

He put his foot on the window.

Boom!

I definitely felt like the new method of teaching became more cheerful after practicing with my mind occupied for even a few days.

He quickly moved from the center of Taehwahyeon to the outskirts and soon discovered a shabby den of beggars.

Faaagh!

“Kwaaagh! It’s a surprise! huh? “Who are you?”

Yeon Ho-jeong took out a black card from his arms.

In an instant, the beggar’s eyes changed.

“The entire Jungwon branch received a call from Hugai. “See you, the practitioner.”

“I stopped by because I wanted to know something.”

“Hwang Pung-jeong…?”

I also know that it came with Moyongga’s Hwangpungjeong. This is truly great information.

“I don’t really get along with those guys. “Information is also open.”

The beggar grinned.

“What information did you come for?”

“That Anhwihyeol on Mt. Palgong….”

That was then.

Wow!

A faint scream came from far to the south.

The expressions of Yeon Ho-jeong and the beggar suddenly changed.

Ugh!

The two men broke through the den of beggars.
