Episode 239The world does not change (1)
âAre you ready?â
âThatâs right.â
ââ¦.â
âHow can you look so bad?â
âno.â
âAs you already know, we are people who are not worthy of sympathy. âEven though my family was taken hostage and everyone was chronically addicted to poison, that doesnât mean the sins Iâve already committed go away.â
ââ¦.â
âTo be more honest⦠we moved under orders from Prince Moyong, but we also committed terrible acts without our superiors knowing.â
ââ¦.â
âThere are many families that have fallen into ruin not because of Moyong-gun but because of us. âMaybe it was a feeling of desperation, but such excuses are meaningless.â
âStop it.â
âSo thereâs no need to look so sad. âThis kind of death is rather undeserved for us who have abandoned human duties.â
ââ¦.â
âIt is a satisfying death just because the elder of the Jeomchang Sect bowed his head to us.â
âI will never forget your names.â
âIt is an honour.â
âThe only thing Iâm worried about is your family. âThe working-level manager will take care of it well, but Iâm worried that there might be some damage.â
âHaha, you actually care more about us than we, your family. âLooking at things like this, we still have a long way to go.â
âI know that my heart will never reach your level.â
âNo, we are not really worried. âIf I had been concerned about that, I wouldnât have done business with the practitioner in the first place.â
âWhoa.â
âEven though they were bred like dogs, they know things. Mr. Moyong is a person who values face. âI may cross the line sometimes, but I am not one to break my promises.â
âIf you guys believe that, Iâll put my worries aside too.â
âthank you.â
âNow⦠letâs begin.â
âAll right. And senior Paeyul.â
âPlease speak.â
âThank you so much.â
ââ¦I am not worthy of such a greeting.â
Paeyul sighed deeply.
Chaaaaang!
A powerful true energy rose from the drawn sword body.
âLetâs get started.â
After a while.
Kwaaaaang!
The groupâs residence exploded, sparks flying in all directions.
* * *
ââ¦.â
A strange silence surrounded the table.
Mo Yong-gun thought as he looked at Yeon Ho-jeongâs relaxed expression.
âWhat are your intentions?â
When Yeon Ho-jeong first opened the door and came in, I really thought my heart was being ripped out. I wondered if something had gone wrong.
I calmed down my shocked mind, but I still felt a chill running down my spine.
âWhy did you appear? âWithout any further contact?â
It is unlikely that his identity was discovered or that he was taken in by the Mukryongbu. It was certain.
But he wasnât the kind of guy who would show up without saying anything except for that reason. No matter how urgent it is, heâs not so incompetent that he canât even send a letter.
âEven Hugae said that work was progressing well.â
Mo Yong-gunâs eyes wavered.
âYou guys canât believe me?â
Is it to be offered as a sacrifice to the Mukryongbu?
ââ¦why?â
Mo Yong-gun, who was quietly examining Yeon Ho-jeongâs eyes, shook his head inwardly.
âno. These guys have no intention of selling me to the Mukryongbu.â
If you really meant to sell it, there is no need to show it like this. In other words, the problem will end if you send the top leaders of the Mukryongbu and their subordinate troops to control the entire area and raid it. There is no reason to do something this complicated.
âWhat on earth are you thinking, you bastard?â
At that time, Yeon Ho-jeong opened his mouth.
âYou seem very surprised.â
Moyong smiled bitterly.
âBut thatâs beyond words. âI thought I would have this opportunity to meet the great master Tuwang.â
âI understand.â
âYou will understand this too. âIâm not feeling well right now.â
Yeon Ho-jeong shrugged his shoulders.
âI completely understand, but anyway, as long as the results are good, it doesnât matter.â
âItâs not wrong. âThe only thing Iâm curious about is whether you have the authority to do that.â
âI came as Vice Presidentâs representative. Although I am not a master like him, you can think of my judgment as the judgment of the Vice Lord.â
Prince Moyong, who was quietly looking at Yeonhojeong, smiled.
âLooking at you, you are truly an amazing talent.â
âexactly?â
âYou look tall and your martial arts skills are also great. Moreover, at that age, not only did he hold the position of head of the intelligence department, but he was appointed deputy chief agent, which means he was a powerful person among powerful people.â
ââ¦.â
âThere is a young man similar to you in our headquarters. âHe was also young and surprised everyone with his outstanding martial arts skills and amazing strategies.â
Yeon Ho-jeong chuckled.
âIt seems he is the rumored commander of the Mortal Army.â
Mo Yong-gunâs eyes sparkled.
âYou say it out loud?â
It was said to provoke the other person. However, Yeonhojeongâs response was very bold.
âI mean itâs not just to stab me in the back.â
Prince Moyong glanced at the flower garden.
He had a quite cold expression. But he could read the strange discomfort on the painterâs face.
âHmm.â
Moyong smiled brightly.
âWould you like a drink?â
âI donât really like alcohol.â
âHehe, I guess youâre at an age where youâre starting to open your eyes to the arts?â
âI have no doubt that the matriarch would not do that, but you never know. âMaybe the alcohol was poisoned.â
For a moment, Hwawon flinched.
Even though Mo Yong-gun was watching Yeon Ho-jeong the whole time, he noticed Hwa-wonâs reaction like a ghost.
âThere was a disturbance.â
Prince Moyong said in a slightly sad tone.
âI think you think too negatively of this person. âThey say that these days, even city officials donât do things like that.â
âHaha, my words were a bit harsh. Unfortunately, Iâm not as good at distribution as my assistant. âI know you wonât do that, but thereâs no harm in being careful with each other.â
âHeh, thatâs right.â
Yeon Ho-jeong looked around.
âIt looks like the matriarch has made some preparations as well. âDid you put gunpowder, not poison?â
ââ¦.â
âWhen I looked down at this neighborhood earlier, I thought it was an amazing place. The retreat route is to the west, leading to the river and mountains⦠Have you also deployed the warriors of the Sega family?â
For a moment, Moyong was taken aback.
âThis guy?â
Someone from the Mukryongbu is also there, so what if I say that out loud?
Of course, knowing that wouldnât change the situation, but it wasnât necessary. At least thatâs what Moyong thought.
âHehe, this is one hit.â
âLike I said, thereâs nothing wrong with being careful with each other, right?â
âThat is correct.â
Moyong quietly crossed his legs.
âIâm a little embarrassed, but I also know youâre not normal. Of course, you must have planted coriander in this area, right?â
Yeon Ho-jeong accepted it happily.
âI heard that the matriarchâs level is very outstanding.â
âalso.â
Moyong said with a smile.
The conversation just goes nowhere. Someone needed to turn the tide.
âso.â
Prince Moyongâs eyes suddenly became bloodthirsty.
âWhy did you show up like this without any prior notice?â
The tone of speech changed.
Yeon Ho-jeong shrugged his shoulders.
âWhy do you think that is?â
âI donât know.â
Did he just want to get rid of all these boring plays?
Mo Yongâs face was noticeably distorted.
âI really donât know. If things were handled this way, no good would come out for either of us. âItâs not like I donât know that.â
âYou donât know.â
Yeon Ho-jeongâs expression also gradually became cold.
âBut Iâd like to ask you something from my side as well. âYou really thought I would just overlook it?â
He meant that he would now speak openly. It also meant that there was no need to worry about the painter. Seará´h the novÑlF~ire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
âOf course.â
Mo Yong-gunâs voice was full of sincerity.
âIn other words, they had nothing to do with you. âYou may be angry, but whatâs important to you is accomplishing your mission, not stabbing me in the back.â
âAre you serious?â
âDid you really think it wasnât true?â
Yeon Ho-jeong shook his head.
âYou killed innocent people for your own self-interest.â
âSo did any harm come to you?â
âYou canât join hands with someone you donât trust. And before that, please think about why we were sent on this mission.â
âWhat do you want to say?â
âOn a small scale, it is to keep the opponent in check, but on a larger scale, isnât it to create a better world? âBut even though you were the commander of this operation, you killed innocent people to satisfy your own selfish desires, so you left the cleanup to the working group.â
Yeon Ho-jeong said with a smile.
âNow, answer me. Aside from trusting each otherâs abilities, can you trust a person who drives you crazy by doing petty things that even a third-rate gangster wouldnât do?â
âIâm telling you clearlyâ¦â
âIf I do something like that without saying a word to you while youâre going through such a hard time, how will you get out?â
Prince Moyong kept his mouth shut.
Yeon Ho-jeong nodded.
âSomething like that. As you know, I am quite narrow-minded. âOnce something happens, you never forget it.â
âAh yes. You and I are both narrow-minded people. However, the reason it does not act as a major disadvantage is because you know when the time is right.â
Flash! Flash!
A lightning-like spark leapt from Mo Yongâs eyes.
Mo Yong-gun was truly angry. The power of Sang-goâs Jeolhak Noejeonggong, which he had been controlling well, was slowly leaking out.
âTell me. Are you serious? âDid you really do such a useless thing because you wanted to see me embarrassed?â
âThen what are you going to do?â
âYou will be disappointed. sincerely.â
Moyong-gun frowned.
âAre you this much of a person? âIf you wanted to vent your anger, you can do it after this mission is over.â
âYou can never do that.â
âwhat?â
âItâs obvious that after this mission, you know Iâm going to hit you and have a plan in place, so why do I need to give you time to prepare?â
Prince Moyong was dumbfounded.
âDo you want this mission to fail?â
âThatâs it. âComplete this mission will be your top priority, so you wonât waste anything on me, right?â
ââ¦!â
âThatâs a pretty funny certainty, too. âIs there really a need to choose between succeeding in the mission and having your own head ripped off?â
Mo Yong-gunâs face hardened.
The cool, subdued air. Inside, Hwawon could not help but be embarrassed.
âwhat? âWhat kind of conversation is this?â
Could it be that the two people knew each other?
âWhat on earthâ¦?â
Moyong glanced at her in confusion and spoke bitterly.
âIn any case, bringing in that obnoxious woman means that it doesnât matter if an accident happens in this space, right?â
âexactly.â
âCome back and see. âI daresay that you will not be able to avoid censure this time.â
Yeon Ho-jeong chuckled.
âYou better look forward too. âBecause the boards are all laid out.â
âwhat?â
It was then.
Whoa whoa!
A look of astonishment appeared on the painterâs face.
âmonkey.â
Yeon Ho-jeong, who had already planted a spear in her solar plexus, spoke coldly.
âDidnât I tell you? Thereâs no need to return the favor.â
âKukkkeok!â
âIf you want to play with alcohol in the afterlife, first find out the other personâs level and then hit them.â
Hwawonâs body trembled.
âYou son of a bitchâ¦!â
Yeon Ho-jeong raised his spear and struck.
Fuwaaaaak!
Hwawonâs body was split lengthwise.
