Chapter 96
Episode 96.
Inevitability created by chance (2)
Namgungsin’s eyes as he looked at Yeonhojeong were full of honest admiration.
“Are you Yeon Ho-jeong?”
“Do you know me?”
Phew.
A cool feeling of anticipation emanated from the bodies of the prosecutors standing behind Namgung Shin.
Namgungsin was the last of the eight elders in the direct line of Namgungse. This means that distribution is the same as that of the head of the household.
But the tone of this young guy, who may have already signed a contract, is really nasty. That touched the hearts of prosecutors.
However, Namgung Shin, who was involved, nodded as if he did not care.
“Of course I know. You can tell just by looking at that enormous ax you are holding. Moreover, this prayer that is passed down unconsciously is not at all like that of a young person.”
Surprisingly, Namgung Shin seemed happy. Her face was filled with pure admiration and joy.
“They say he showed the courage to take on the best in the world on his own. He is indeed an amazing talent. “The nickname Byeoksanhojang (碧山虎將) suits him perfectly.”
Coral wall?
‘It’s not even funny.’
When was the last time it was called Gwangpungsa Temple, but this time it is called Byeoksanhojang? Even though he was a martial artist himself, he really deserved to know the fuss made by the martial people.
“Oh, I’m sorry. I didn’t even introduce myself to the person. “I am a person called Shin of the Nangong family in Anhui.”
Yeon Ho-jeong blinked.
Namgung Shin quenched his appetite.
“Have you never heard of it?”
“I’m not really interested in other people.”
No matter how much I thought about it, it wasn’t something I should say to my senior at Moorim. Moreover, Namgoong Shin was older than Yeongaju.
The prosecutors’ eyes gradually became colder. The subtle anticipation grew stronger.
Namgoong Shin burst out laughing.
“He is an exciting young man. “If you’re a cancer man, you should have that kind of distribution.”
“Anyway, I’ll just leave. “Please make way.”
“Previously.”
“…?”
“Is that person on your side Myeong Heo-rim?”
Yeon Ho-jeong’s eyes sparkled.
For a moment, I thought, ‘How did you know?’
However, Namgung Se is also the central force of the Murim Alliance. It was well known that Myeong Heo-rim was heading to Anhui.
“exactly.”
“As expected. The young hero who exposed the true face of the famous martial arts family even caught the son of the famous hero who escaped. “Your reputation will once again shake the Great River South and North.”
Yeon Ho-jeong shook his head. It was an action that showed annoyance.
“Just get out of the way. “I have a long way to go.”
“her! That’s how it should be. We tried to catch him first, but it ended up being a disappointment. Well, who cares who catches it? “It would have been nice if I caught it.”
Namgung-shin glanced at Myeongheo-rim as if he was disappointed and took a step to the side.
“Make a way.”
Thirty prosecutors lined up left and right.
Yeon Ho-jeong’s eyes sparkled.
‘It’s significant.’
The anticipation felt from left and right was great.
It was not an ordinary armed force organization. It is probably one of the best fighting units in Namgung.
However, it was a problem that had nothing to do with Yeonhojeong. He trotted down the street.
It was then.
“But you’re sleeping.”
Yeon Ho-jeong stopped walking.
“I heard you scolded my nephews quite a bit in the past.”
“….”
“Hehe, there’s no need to be nervous. Even though they are nephews, I think those kids were mean. “Hyeon-i committed fraud, and Sang-hwa’s behavior was so frivolous that he showed a petty behavior that only children would commit.”
“But?”
“But…”
Namgoong Shin’s smile was still the same.
“I understand those two incidents, but I don’t understand the other incident, no matter how much I do.”
Yeon Ho-jeong turned around.
He frowned.
“Stop spinning around and say what you want to say.”
Namgung Shin nodded.
“Since you came out so coolly, I will put aside the pretentiousness and speak.”
Namgung Shin’s face, which was full of smiles, became cold for an instant.
“I heard you have a relationship with the child who will be Hyeon-i’s partner?”
Yeon Ho-jeong was quickly able to think of one person.
“Jegal Yeon?”
“Yes, Jegal Ah-yeon. “I’m talking about that child.”
“Because we are friends… there is no such thing as a great friendship.”
“Hehe, if you’re thinking of getting out of the way with words like that, it’s going to be difficult. “Actually, I don’t care how deep your friendship is between you and that child, but the situation is strangely bad.”
Namgung Shin frowned.
Even thinking about it himself, he seemed reluctant to get involved in something like this. But I couldn’t help but do it. Both as a family elder and as an uncle.
“I don’t know if you know, but my family sent a hawk to the Zhuge family. “I’m talking about that child.”
“I know.”
“Know? Hehe, if that’s the case, we’ll talk quickly.”
Namgung Shin spoke in a cold voice.
“Never meet the eldest daughter of the Zhuge family again. “That child is the wife of the Duke of Yi from our family.”
Yeon Ho-jeong chuckled without realizing it.
Namgung Shin’s eyes deepened.
“Why are you smiling so much?”
I can’t help but laugh.
It seemed that the Zhuge family was planning to refuse marriage talks with the Namgung family. However, the Namgung family tells them not to spread rumors about her being their daughter-in-law.
I wondered if he wanted to start a fuss, but it didn’t seem like that.
‘I knew it anyway.’
What was important to Yeon Ho-jeong was not the marriage of Jegal A-yeon and Nam Gung-hyeon.
‘These guys knew I was here.’
This incident was something only Moyong and himself knew. At least that was the case on the surface.
Did King Namgung also dispatch troops to capture Myeong Heo-rim? it could be. But that cannot be proof that this meeting was accidental.
‘Moyong-gun.’
It’s obvious chatter. It was certain that this incident was committed by Prince Moyong.
The reason is because even if you know, you can’t argue with it. There was no evidence and there was no need to cause unnecessary trouble and rumors.
And it was the same with the Namgung family.
Yeon Ho-jeong shrugged his shoulders.
“Don’t worry. I never asked to meet him in the first place. “That guy found me first.”
It was fortunate.
It was a good thing, but it was a strangely unpleasant word. It would be better if Yeon Ho-jeong had feelings for Jegal A-yeon. If it were the other way around, it would be a problem for Namgung as well.
“So there’s no need to strain your eyes that much.”
Tsutsutsutsu.
A subtle blue energy wavered from the prosecutors’ bodies.
It was Changgunggi (蒼穹氣). All of them learned the speargun technique, the pinnacle martial art of the Namgung family.
I also learned all of them deeply. The waves of momentum crashing in from left and right were surprisingly strong.
Namgung Shin, who had been glaring at Yeon Ho-jeong for a long time, returned his smile.
“You may be an arrogant person, but at least you don’t seem like a liar.”
Do it whenever you need to.
“I will believe you. “Please be careful in the future.”
“Don’t worry. “Because I don’t want to be someone who ruins someone else’s marriage.”
“Hehe, he is a young man who understands.”
Namgung Shin raised his hand.
At the same time, the energy waves flowing from the left and right became quiet.
“I’m sorry I caught you for no reason. “Just go on your way.”
“Good luck.”
“I know. ah! “Let me ask you one more question.”
Namgung Shin frowned.
“Have you ever seen an archery expert around here?”
Yeon Ho-jeong’s eyes sparkled.
“Archery?”
“That’s right. I don’t know if you know, but there is a demon head called Anhui Blood Palace that destroyed Geumgeommun five years ago. “They said that the horse head appeared near Palgongsan Mountain recently.”
“…!”
“Myeong Heo-rim, it’s a shame that you captured it, but we must capture Anhui Blood Palace.”
Namgung Shin scratched his head.
“I saw traces of violence not far from here. I couldn’t look at it in detail, but it was an incredible archery technique that combined Qigong. “I think it’s definitely a martial art from the Anhui Blood Palace.”
“….”
“Didn’t you wait to catch Myeong Heo-lin? Have you ever felt such a powerful energy wave?”
Yeon Ho-jeong spoke naturally.
“I’ve never seen it. “I only came a day ago.”
“is it?”
Namgung Shin quenched his appetite.
“I understand. “If there is anyone suspicious carrying a bow, please tell the nearby branch.”
“I understand.”
“Just go and see. “Congratulations on catching Myeong Heo-rim.”
“I wish you luck.”
In this way, Yeonhojeong became distant from Namgung Se’s troops.
How far did you come down from the mountain?
“Gasp! Female Yeonja?”
Yeon Ho-jeong opened his eyes wide.
“Socheong branch leader?”
“Wow! Gasp! Now, just take a moment to breathe…”
Su Qing sat down on the spot and continued to breathe heavily.
Behind Socheong, there was Baekhyang, a quiet and bright person.
Yeon Ho-jeong’s eyes lit up.
“Muk… Baekhyang?”
Baekhyang looked at Yeonhojeong in silence.
His eyes had lost focus. The energy of emptiness emanating from his entire body was extremely dark.
Su Qing gasped and said.
“This Sojeo was brought here to find a practitioner. Huh! “Huh!”
Yeon Ho-jeong put down Myeong Heo-rim.
“I didn’t expect you to find me so quickly.”
Baekhyang, who was looking at Yeonhojeong, lowered his head.
“I came to say hello.”
“greeting?”
“I’m going back to Gwanilgok.”
Yeon Ho-jeong quenched his appetite.
“Are you trying to become that Yesin or something?”
“no.”
“…then?”
Baekhyang spat out scary words with an expressionless face.
“I want to get rid of it with my own hands.”
“…!”
Yeon Ho-jeong’s face hardened.
“Brother Gungcheon said. I think you can protect me. But Gwanilgok is strong. And they will try to catch the escaped Ye-shin somehow.”
“is it.”
“yes. “I don’t know who the powerhouse is, but unless you are from a sect that is said to be the most powerful in the powerhouse, you probably won’t be able to deal with Gwanilgok.”
“So you will destroy them all with your own hands?”
Baekhyang’s eyes became even darker.
Beneath the deep, dark darkness, there was a subtle anger and murderousness.
“I hate them. “Anyway, everyone I could call family is dead, and they will try to catch me somehow.”
“….”
“In that case, it would be better to get rid of everything.”
It’s truly poisonous.
In most cases, it is difficult to make such a promise. Still, isn’t Gwanilgok her hometown?
Yeon Ho-jeong looked into Baek-hyang’s eyes.
It was as if it was trying to absorb all the light in the world. It was that dark and dark.
‘It’s not just about this incident.’
I thought that this joint battle between Yesin and Shin was just a trigger and that she also hated Gwanilgok. Of course, it’s a guess.
“Can you deal with it alone?”
“Because I was familiar with the geographical features of that place. “There are many experts, but none are better than those who participated in the competition.”
“It’s going to be a tough fight though.”
“….”
“It’s a fight that might be difficult to come back from, right? “Isn’t that why you came to say hello?”
“…that’s right.”
Baekhyang bowed his head again.
“Thanks to you, Brother Gungcheon went away in peace. “I too have been indebted to you, so I wanted to say goodbye and leave, which might be my last.”
Yeon Ho-jeong sighed.
“I advised him to live his life proactively, but he actually said he was going to die.”
“I don’t want to die.”
“hmm?”
“I don’t want to die. But unless we get rid of them, we won’t be alive even if we survive.”
“….”
“That’s how harsh they are.”
“So, this is also an inevitable choice?”
“…yes.”
“Is that so?”
It was a somewhat sly reply.
Yeon Ho-jeong immediately put his arm around Baek-hyang’s shoulder. Baekhyang flinched.
“Hey, Muk… No, Baek… Oh, that’s it! You will remain silent from now on. “I’ll call you Mukbi.”
“yes yes?”
“I have a great idea. Would you like to hear it?”
“…is this a good idea?”
Yeon Ho-jeong looked up at the ridge in the distance.
His eyes sank deeply.
“Would you like to give me some advice for you as you enter the world in the future?”
“…?”
“If you’re going to get your hands dirty, it’s better to do it yourself. But if it’s something that’s bothersome, it’s okay to leave it in someone else’s hands.”
“yes? “What does that mean?”
“I’m saying there’s no need to be upset because I didn’t do what I was supposed to do. Especially if the opponent is an enemy who deserves death.”
Yeon Ho-jeong said to So-cheong.
“Branch manager. Please bring some Myeongheolim. “I have something to talk about with this friend.”
“Gasp! “Do I pay?”
“Please.”
“Huh! “Huff. Ah, I understand.”
Yeon Ho-jeong smiled and looked back at Baek-hyang.
“Have you ever heard of the car-do-murder system?”
