Chapter 503

Episode 503.Summary and Challenge (3)

There is a saying, “A person who kills with impunity.”

It means shaking people’s emotions with just one simple word.

Yeon Ho-jeong’s words were too long-winded to be considered a rash act. However, in the sense of catching the opponent off guard, it could definitely be called a reckless murder.

Namgoongin wore a smile that he had honed throughout his life and did not hesitate to make harsh judgments.

Little by little, cracks began to appear in the steel mask that had been maintained for so many years.

“If I had those feelings, I could be a threat… You speak strangely.”

“This is something I often hear.”

“I understand that your intuition is excellent enough to be recognized by your servants. But no matter how great your intuition is, wouldn’t you be able to have a conversation if you come with something to prove it?”

“It seems like the head of the house is misunderstanding something.”

“mistaken?”

Suddenly, the title changed from Bonggong to Lord of the House.

The current Namgung-in could not read the subtle differences. Because my composure was broken.

Yeon Ho-jeong smiled coldly.

“If you came to me with evidence, there is no need for attention or favor. “We will kill them on the spot or destroy them in some way so that they will never be able to enter the Murim Alliance for the rest of their lives.”

“…!”

“Isn’t it lame to just talk about something that can be shown through action and then argue about whether it was this way or that way?”

Namgoongin’s cheeks trembled.

Yeon Ho-jeong smiled.

“I know my language is harsh and rude. There is a difference between honesty and rudeness. “I keep that in mind, too, but it’s not easy to control it when I open my mouth.”

“….”

“What I ask is that you change your mind even now.”

“When I listen to the way you talk, those feelings disappear.”

“Are you admitting it?”

“I don’t want to play with words.”

“If you don’t like playing with words, I will tell you without any pretense.”

Whoops.

A fierce prayer rose from Yeon Ho-jeong’s body.

Prayer, which was once so deep and mysterious, turned into an overwhelming firepower that seemed to set the world on fire.

A prayer that changed in an instant. In front of him, Namgung-in was greatly shocked.

‘Unbelievable!’

I knew that Yeonhojeong’s martial arts skills were good enough to be called a master.

But I didn’t know it would be to this extent. If we just look at this prayer now, isn’t it already above the level of the Jangmun of the Nine Sects or the head of the Six Families?!

“Do you know how I transported Jang Mun-in, who is now dead, and Yonghwajin-in of Hwasan to the execution hall?”

“….”

“Once I set my sights on a target, I will not let go even when the sky is falling and the earth is disappearing. “I am the nasty guy who will bite you until the end, even if it means tearing your flesh and turning your bones into dust.”

“….”

“That’s why Deng Jangmun-in and Yonghwajin-in were treated like that. Because I don’t need people who will seek out their own interests or become a hindrance, rather than contributing to the future of the Murim Alliance. That’s why I got rid of it.”

Namgung-in felt goosebumps for a moment.

In my head, I thought it was nonsense, but in my heart, I could understand the sincerity behind those words.

“You also agreed to my extremely extreme plan. The head of the Moyong family? What can I say? “If it weren’t for the Moyong family head, do you think we would have been able to put such big people in jail?”

“….”

“What this means is that if someone like him appears again in the future, at least two of the leaders of the Tang Geum Murim Alliance will draw their swords. “Do you understand what I’m saying?”

A cool smile appeared on Namgoongin’s face.

“Good words. “Aren’t you saying that you are ultimately going to turn the Murim Alliance into a dictatorship no different from the Black Island?”

“If you do not know the difference between the unity of an army in preparation for war and the ruling system that holds and shakes absolute power, then you are not qualified to be a Duke.”

“It’s just a play on words.”

“Don’t you know that much about reality?”

“Reality…”

“No matter how many times we try to pretend and pretend, in the end, there is only one reality.”

Yeon Ho-jeong’s eyes darkened.

“If this continues, we will lose the war against the Three Religions.”

“…!”

“The midfield will become a sea of fire. The imperial palace and the martial arts kingdom will collapse, and in the end, only those who suit the tastes of the three religions will survive. Powerless people will have to memorize doctrines for a god they don’t even know, and meaningful governors will not be able to raise their voices even once and will bleed to death on the cold ground where no one knows.”

Namgung-in swallowed his saliva without realizing it.

This is because Yeon Ho-jeong’s expression and eyes as he said those words showed the despair of someone who had experienced the horrors of war.

“If so? “Is Namgung going to be safe?”

Namgung-in said without realizing it.

“Namgoong will not fall.”

“It is difficult to even count the number of clans that have been uprooted because of such absurd pride. And no way…”

“….”

“You don’t think it will matter even if we lose the war against the Three Religions, as long as Namgung is fine, right?”

Of course, I didn’t think that way. It was because Namgung-in also disliked the three religions.

It wasn’t just the three religions. I cannot like any force that tries to overtake the central martial arts group. The depth of hatred will be greater among those who belong to the martial arts group, especially those with vested interests.

“Let’s say the war is lost and only Namgung survives. From then on, there is only one action Namgoong must take to survive.”

The corners of Yeon Ho-jeong’s mouth rose.

It was an obvious mockery.

“It’s about getting into the crotches of the three religions.”

“Nonsense!”

“Otherwise, Namgung will be destroyed. “Even the dog owned by the Namgung family will be slaughtered.”

“How dare you insult Namgung? “If such a situation arises, we will fight fiercely until the end!”

“Why do you want to wait until the end?”

“…!!”

“Let’s fight together from now on instead of choosing such a cruel battle with no end in sight.”

Namgung-in showed a perplexed expression.

Yeon Ho-jeong continued.

“Let me be clear. The reason I want to go to the Mukryongbu is because I know that now is not the time for black and white to fight against each other, but for the two groups to become one and fight against the Three Religions. And not only Moyonggaju but also Mukryongbuju knows that. “Even the head of the Black Island Alliance that we White Islanders despise and look down on so much.”

“….”

“Do you really want to become someone worse than the leader of the Dark Island? Do you really want to enjoy this brief period of power that is destined for destruction?”

Namgung-in, who was looking at Yeon Ho-jeong with trembling eyes, spoke as if chewing.

“If you insult me any more, I won’t let you. There is a limit to how bad you can look at people. “Do you think I’m such an idiot that I can’t even tell the difference?”

“That’s right.”

Yeon Ho-jeong smiled and stood up.

“I would be happy if the outcome was me getting scolded and you getting angry.”

“What?!”

“If you don’t want to be that kind of person, if you want to protect the cause as the head of the Nangong family, don’t forget what you just said.”

“…!”

“What if someone gets criticized? What if I become a stupid and rude idiot? “It doesn’t matter how you criticize me, as long as it results in the matriarch truly using her strength for one cause.”

Yeon Ho-jeong turned the empty glass upside down and set it down. seaʀᴄh thё NôᴠelFirё.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

“You had a good drink. It smelled good. But it’s such a luxurious drink. Sometimes, feel the charm of bitter white wine.”

“What kind of nonsense is that…?!”

“Broad daylight contains life. “It’s a strong and tasteless drink, but if you look hard, you can enjoy it.”

“….”

“You end up drinking too much alcohol that smells good, right? “Even the nice smell feels worse than the smell of poop the next day when you’re hungover.”

Really, the words go back and forth. However, Namgung-in suddenly felt himself being swayed by Yeon Ho-jeong.

Not only does he freely change the topic at any time, he dominates the conversation throughout.

Sometimes, a talent that can be more frightening than martial arts is speaking skills.

“Let me make this clear. If you want to enjoy power, the Murim Alliance is not for you. “I have no intention of evaluating that desire, but at least we should not interfere with the responsible martyrs who are struggling to protect their home.”

Yeon Ho-jeong turned around.

“Please make a wise decision.”

With those words, Yeon Ho-jeong left the room.

Namgoongin, who was looking at the table with eyes full of all kinds of emotions, was momentarily unable to control his actions.

bang!

The fist that hit the table had already turned white.

Yeon Ho-jeong came out of Namgung-in’s residence and walked down a dark night street.

After a while, a person came to his side.

It was a loss rate.

“Have you been there?”

Yeon Ho-jeong chuckled.

“Where do you keep appearing like a ghost like that?”

“You’re laughing. “I wish I knew everything.”

“That’s right.”

“Unlucky guy.”

Paeyul, who was grumbling, shrugged his shoulders.

“I couldn’t sleep, so I came to see him for a round of dancing, and I was told that he had gone to Namgung. So I was waiting.”

“I see.”

“But why Namgung all of a sudden? “Did Namgoong get into an accident too?”

Yeon Ho-jeong laughed hahaha without realizing it.

“Am I someone who only looks for people who cause accidents?”

“From your perspective, it’s an accident, and from his perspective, there’s no such thing as a lightning strike in a dry sky. “Isn’t that usually the case?”

“It’s like a lightning strike in a dry sky… It’s not wrong.”

From Namgoong’s point of view, this is definitely possible. Even though he had never revealed his ambitions, a young Ji Hoo Ji suddenly came and shouted at him to give up his greed without any physical evidence.

“I just hope you give up your greed. “The Murim League will soon enter a state of anti-Bongmun status, and if someone as high as Bonggong causes an accident, it will be a pain in the ass.”

Paeyul’s eyes lit up.

“Bongmun?”

“Yes, that will happen.”

Paeyul didn’t say anything about it.

“Does this mean that the Murim League will greatly reduce its external activities?”

“I guess so. Of course, as it is an anti-Bongmun event, external activities will not be completely banned.”

“Hmm.”

Paeyul stroked his chin.

Yeon Ho-jeong, who was quietly looking at him, opened her mouth.

“It’s not possible.”

“what?”

“I will only take Kang Ryang with me.”

“What did I say? “He’s a funny guy.”

“Then I’m glad.”

“Instead, the mission locations may overlap by chance.”

Yeon Ho-jeong touched his forehead.

“Find fun somewhere other than me. “How many fighting scenes are there in the world?”

“There are a lot of battlegrounds. But there is no one who makes the fight as exciting as you.”

“Is it really necessary to live such an exciting life when even if we gather our strength in preparation for war, it won’t be enough?”

“If I become stronger, won’t my power increase just as much? “What could be better than having a stronger ally active on the battlefield?”

“I’m going crazy.”

“The cheesy things you say haven’t changed since before.”

“It’s no different from your ridiculous fighting spirit.”

Paeyul chuckled.

“Well, I’ll think about it later. “How was it, Namgoong?”

“well.”

Yeon Ho-jeong turned his head and looked toward Namgung’s living quarters.

“Namgoongin is a person who is more interested in politics than martial arts. “It’s not new that he’s finally showing his teeth… but I just hope that there won’t be any more accidents in the Murim Alliance.”
