Chapter 502

Episode 502Summary and Challenge (2)

Yeon Ho-jeong’s first greeting was quite impressive.

“I see you, Bong-gong. “This is Yeon Ho-jeong, the head of Uijeong-gun.”

He does not refer to the other person as the head of the Namgung family, nor does he refer to himself as the eldest son of the Byuksan love family.

This meant that it was strictly a public affair. At least that would be the ostensible reason for coming here.

Namgoongin smiled and pointed across from him.

“Sit down.”

Yeon Ho-jeong sat across from Namgung-in.

‘her.’

We’ve seen each other a few times, but this was the first time we were alone together like this.

Is that why? Somehow the other person seemed new.

‘He’s really not an ordinary guy.’

Looking at his straight back, straight chest, and clear, deep eyes, I couldn’t believe he was a young man his age.

Regardless of the strength or weakness of the force, the person himself looks excellent. The atmosphere that came out naturally, even without being conscious of it, was already that of a Buddhist monk.

Namgung-in clicked his tongue inwardly.

‘Are you saying you didn’t even recognize this genius and stuck your head in to try to defeat him?’

The second is Namgung-hyeon and the third is Namgung Sang-hwa.

The bad relationship started with Namgung Sanghwa. It is only now that the old resentment has somehow been resolved, but it was Namgung Sang-hwa who was at fault in the first place.

In addition, Namgoong-hyeon, who approached the problem with full confidence but was blinded by mere lust and lost without even being able to fight, looked really bad.

In martial arts, there is no skill more important than recognizing the capabilities of others. In that regard, Namgung-hyeon and Namgung Sang-hwa had a problem.

Even though I’m a child, isn’t it really frustrating?

“Are you good at drinking?”

Yeon Ho-jeong nodded to Namgung-in’s question.

“We do it once.”

“How is it? “I was already having a drink alone, so would you like to have a drink too?”

“If you give it to me, I will be grateful.”

Namgoongin smiled and filled Yeonhojeong’s cup.

“Let’s have a drink.”

The two people emptied the glasses they had clinked together.

“I think this is the first time we’ve seen each other like this.”

“Yes that’s right.”

“A solo meeting with the world’s best late-season index. Even though I am the head of the Namgung family, I am truly honored at this moment. “Aren’t you the unexalted monster who completely erased the existence of the Ssangryongsambong (雙龍三鳳), who were called the next pillars of the martial arts world due to their high reputation?”

For a time, Ssangryongsambong was a nickname that was like a symbol of young late-stage exponents. Searᴄh the Nôvel(F)ire.nёt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

The talents of Ssangryong and Sambong were evaluated to be close to or even higher than that of Seongcheon Thirteenth Place. I don’t know if it’s actually true, but the geniuses that people have a reason to admire were Ssangryong and Sambong.

But the names of those five geniuses were completely forgotten. It was because of the existence of Yeonhojeong.

A young man named Go Soo, who suddenly appeared in the world and took the lead in destroying the Nine Ju Myeong Family. His unconventional appearance and his monstrous talent, which brought him to the level of a great writer in his early twenties in his early twenties, made Yeon Ho-jeong emerge as a late-life exponent in the true sense of the word.

In addition, the timing of Mo Yong-woo’s appearance was also surprising. As he continued his training in the Murim Alliance and transcended the wall of martial arts, the people of the world were quick to say that these two men were invincible talents that no late leader in the world could dare to surpass.

Hosin Ssangwi (虎神雙位) or Tiger Sword Ssangwi (虎劍雙位).

It was a term referring to Yeon Ho-jeong, the commander of the Byeoksanho, the strongest warrior in the latter period, and Mo Yong-woo, the commander of the Geongonho, the strongest swordsman in the later period.

However, in general, Hojang means Yeonhojeong, and Mo Yong-woo is called Geongon Shingeom or Geonggon Sword Hyeop to make a distinction.

Naturally, people valued Yeon Ho-jeong more highly than Mo Yong-woo.

Not only because of his position and achievements, but also because he was younger than Mo Yong-wu and broke through the wall of martial arts earlier than him.

“Do you remember our eldest child?”

He was referring to Namgungpyo, the head of the Namgung family.

Yeon Ho-jeong nodded.

“I remember.”

When everyone gathered together to form the Murim Alliance, Yeonga and Namgungga encountered each other in the middle.

Yeon Ho-jeong then saw Nam Gung-pyo. Although he was similar in age to Mo Yong-woo, he was a swordsman with confident eyes, seemingly invisible arrogance, and considerable sword energy.

Namgung-in said with a smile.

“I don’t know because you’ve been busy, but Pyo-ah was really shocked when she saw you. At that time, your and Pyoah’s martial arts skills were similar. That alone must have been a big shock.”

“I understand.”

“But after you became the leader of the Mortal Army, scolded the world, and broke through the barrier of the infinite world, you seemed to have completely lost your spirit.”

“okay.”

“So, before you went on a mission to Guangdong, I sent you back to your home with Hyuna. “A warrior must grapple with the world to become stronger. After learning that there are many geniuses greater than myself, my attitude changed a lot.”

He was truly grateful to Yeon Ho-jeong for that matter. I think my son’s arrogance is confidence for a reason, but if I can’t be stimulated even when such a monster appears in the world, I’m just stupid.

In that respect, I couldn’t help but be thankful for the person who stimulated my son’s desire to win and jealousy.

Of course, the most beautiful ending would be for the grown son to lightly crush the world’s best Huji Jisoo.

“It’s thanks to you. Thank you.”

“He says all kinds of things.”

Namgoongin smiled.

He rarely revealed his true feelings to others. I always tried to smile and now it has become a habit.

So his laughter seemed very natural, unlike his true intentions.

“Saddam was long. Okay, let’s put this aside for now. “You came to see me on official business?”

“That’s right.”

Namgung-in stroked his beard.

“I didn’t know that the head of Uijeong-gun would come to visit me on official business at this hour. “If there is an issue, it is enough to go through formal procedures or put it on the agenda through the military at a meeting.”

Yeon Ho-jeong smiled.

“It is a public service, but if you look at it another way, it is not a public service.”

“Interesting. “Let’s take a listen.”

“It’s late at night, so I won’t bother talking about it. “I will tell you honestly, so if you respect me, please give me an honest answer.”

“Hehehe, why are you doing this? I understand. “I will do that, so just listen to what I have to say.”

Yeon Ho-jeong spoke directly.

“Please help me.”

“hmm? What do you mean suddenly?”

“I am asking you to join us, led by the military, and other public servants, so that the Murim Alliance can be run as a Murim Alliance.”

Namgoongin’s eyes sparkled.

Although it was a lightly spoken remark, it was a remark that was difficult to accept. The weight of the content was significant.

“Hehe, what does that mean? Our servants are working hard to achieve justice for the martial arts community. “The meaning is not different.”

“I wanted an honest conversation, and Bong-gong agreed.”

“Are you sure I’m lying?”

Yeon Ho-jeong shook his head.

“We are in a situation where an unprecedented enemy is targeting the entire continent. In other words, it is time for the entire Jungwon martial arts group to jump into action against the common enemy. There is no way that Duke Bong doesn’t know that fact.”

“I know full well. So we have to work together even more, and even if it’s not for the good of the world, we have to do that.”

“I know that the matriarch’s words are sincere.”

“Hey, thank you for understanding.”

“But even if everyone works together for the good of the world, there will always be someone who takes the lead.”

“…?!”

“I’m saying exactly that. If possible, it would be good if the Murim Alliance was led by someone with great ability, great character, and confidence. However, if the desire for power takes precedence over everything else, I think such a person should not lead the group.”

The smile disappeared from Namgoongin’s face.

“There is a bone in the horse. “Are you saying I’m worthy of that?”

“Some Bonggongs, including Bonggong Moyong, would not have thought that way.”

Yeon Ho-jeong’s eyes deepened.

“I don’t know if Duke Bong really thinks like that. However, I know that you are a person who will not make wrong choices due to the rudeness I showed you today. “I’m not the type of person who would abandon a cause because of discomfort.”

They give carrots and sticks.

I couldn’t tell just by hearing what he was saying.

Of course, Namgoongin knew how Yeonhojeong viewed him. I could tell by looking at his eyes and attitude without words.

“I guess you see me as a somewhat dangerous person.”

“That’s right.”

It was an honest admission.

Namgung-in asked as if throwing a question.

“Why do you think that?”

Yeon Ho-jeong smiled.

“An experienced chef knows where the problem is in a dish just by smelling it.”

“That’s a rather unpleasant analogy.”

“Rather than comparing Bonggong to food, I think you can think of me as comparing myself to Suksu.”

“In other words, you read traces of such greed in me?”

“yes.”

The corners of Namgoongin’s mouth rose.

“Isn’t this an extremely personal opinion and judgment that cannot be proven?”

“With that sense that couldn’t be proven, I caught Sejak and put the brakes on Moyongaju’s ambition. Now, many people trust my senses.”

Namgoongin’s eyes became sharp.

“Is this a threat?”

“If Bonggong has such ambition in his heart, it could be a threat.”

Namgung-in quietly looked at Yeon Ho-jeong.

Yeon Ho-jeong did not bother to hide his expression and eyes. He looked at himself with a faint smile, but it was difficult to read his thoughts.

How much time has passed like that?

“Okay, let’s think about it this way.”

Namgung-in nodded and leaned his upper body forward.

“Suppose I have such ambition. And because of his ambition, even in situations where cooperation is important, he is willing to do unspeakable and dirty things for his own gain.”

“….”

“What does that have to do with you? “As long as you don’t cause harm to others.”

Yeon Ho-jeong nodded.

“I agree with what you said as long as you don’t cause harm to others. The problem is that it causes damage.”

“what?”

“Now that a rare enemy called the Three Religions has appeared, the continent must become one. In a situation where trusting in each other, caring for each other, and even sacrificing the spirit of sacrifice are not enough, what would the people of the world think if the person who is the leader of the Murim Alliance did such an ‘unspeakable act’ for personal gain and the fact was exposed? ?”

“….”

“Even at a strategic level, such people should be excluded. Also, since he is such a stupid and foolish person, I think he should not become the backbone of the alliance.”

“Foolish?”

“That’s foolish. “You can’t call Byeok Chang-ho, who is desperate to gain double his own wealth, mistaken for a turbulent time when war is imminent and everyone is dead, mistaking it as a turbulent time to fight the warlords, right?”

“…!!”

“Even that head of the Moyong family found out about the existence of the three religions and stopped fighting between factions and joined hands. “Even the most ambitious people know what’s important.”

At that moment, Namgoongin’s eyes wavered slightly.

Yeon Ho-jeong continued speaking in a more stern voice.

“I’m still not sure where the line is in doing things. However, I do know that everything has a pros and cons. However, among adults who have learned a lot and have a lot of experience, there are people who ignore what young people like me know, saying it is okay.”

“….”

“I don’t know if you know, but since I joined the Murim Alliance, I have destroyed all such people. “It didn’t matter how high or low the position was.”

Yeon Ho-jeong’s stiff face softened slightly.

“How are you feeling, Duke Bong? Are you a charlatan who, as a servant of the Murim Alliance, lends a helping hand to the world? Or are you an ambitious person who runs around the fields excitedly without even seeing a place to lie down?”
