Episode 742Bloody Throne (3)
Hook!
A terrifying energy emanated from Yeon Ho-jeongâs body.
The sharpness of the energy that surged for a split second was truly like a divine sword. That energy swept away the cloud-like good energy that had surrounded the surroundings in an instant.
Hahaha!
Yeon Ho-jeongâs face turned red.
Thanks to the unexpectedly scattered good energy, the vague feeling disappeared and my five senses became clear.
âsee.â
Only now Yeon Ho-jeong was able to check the appearance of Tak Mu-ja. Unlike before, when I could see it all but didnât feel the need to open it and recognize it, it has returned to normal.
âAmazing.â
Yeon Ho-jeong looked at Tak Mu-jaâs face again and was inwardly surprised.
Takmuja, who is the highest ranked person in the entire generation, must be over 80 years old.
However, if you just looked at his face, you would have believed that he was in his mid-40s. His hair was white, but if you look at his eyebrows and beard, he looked younger than his father, Yeonwi.
Nevertheless, the reason I vaguely recognized him as an old man was because of the sage that was felt in his hair and his beggarly voice. Aside from those things, I would believe that he is a shaman swordsman currently on active duty.
âThatâs amazing.â
Vivid surprise appeared on Zhuk Muziâs face. Even at that age, his expression was as intuitive as a child.
âIt seems like that question is a great annoyance to you. Even good energy can be shocked and dispersed, so in the history of shamans, there are no more than ten people who have cleared away this good energy and revealed themselves completely.â
âIs that so.â
âThatâs right.â
Takmuja smiled sheepishly.
âDonât be too offended. Sometimes we are dazed too. This skill is difficult for even those who have practiced Taoist martial arts their entire lives to get used to. âYou are not the only ones feeling ambiguity.â
âI guess that happened.â
âis it.â
Yeon Ho-jeongâs eyes deepened.
âFifty years⦠on what basis do you say that?â
It was a pretty sharp reaction. But Takmuja answered obediently.
âAppearance, martial character, and knowledge can be deceiving. But you canât fake this.â
Takmuja tapped his head with his index finger.
Yeon Ho-jeongâs eyes wavered.
âSangdanjeon.â
âThatâs right. Even as they get older, those who take care of themselves are always full of vitality. Itâs hard to guess a personâs age just by looking at the shoes at the top. Oneâ¦.â
ââ¦.â
âIf you can go beyond the sacred items and read the flow of history engraved on the vessel, guessing the personâs age is not that difficult.â
Easier said than done.
But of course, it was not possible for everyone. To begin with, most of the people in Moorim did not even know the concept of Sangdanjeon.
Even just looking at Yeonhojeong, I couldnât understand the flow of history and other words engraved on the bowl called Sandangjeon.
âThatâs just the way it is. Itâs hard to explain. Anyway, I hope you just understand that I see something like that and move on.â
ââ¦okay.â
Yeon Ho-jeong nodded.
âAll right.â
Takmujaâs eyes sparkled. His eyes, filled with curiosity, were also like those of a child.
âArenât you going to answer?â
âDo I have to answer the question?â
ââ¦Ohh?â
Takmuja burst out laughing.
âThe student I cherished and cherished fell into the arms of the worldâs most ugly beast, threw away the sword I had taught him for a long time and started holding a vicious sword, so I swore to myself that if I ever saw that bastard stand on his side, I would immediately beat him on the head.â
ââ¦.â
âBut now that I look at it, I donât feel like hitting it at all. âItâs not just ugly, itâs downright vicious, but donât you feel a certain way in its eyes and voice?â
Yeon Ho-jeong frowned.
âI refuse to engage in idle talk. âI have no idea what that means.â
âHehehe.â
âIf you are afraid of Okcheongâs changes, I have nothing to say to you.â
âYou bastard, Jade Qing was a pottery that would be difficult to recreate in the world. Although it was a bit twisted, martial arts was also better than mine. âIf I had just kept learning quietly, I would have soared in an instant, but because of you, 10 years of hard work went to waste.â
âThen why didnât you manage your students properly in the first place?â
âwhat?â
âI taught those under my command how to survive. âAs a teacher, I canât help but feel sad, but I donât think itâs my fault.â
Takmuja laughed.
âHow to survive? âKill me before I die?â
âExactly.â
âIf you start killing one or two people before you die, one hundred million living souls will be burned in the future, right? âWasnât that a male killer?â
âWhether or not he becomes a murderer depends on his own capabilities. âRosenbae is the one who taught me how to use chopsticks, so just trust your student.â
âHahahaha!!â
Takmuja suddenly burst into laughter.
âOh my god, look at such a shameless bastard! âIn the end, itâs not your fault at all?â
âThatâs right.â
âYou idiot! There is fire and water in the world. There is wind and soil. âA guy with an angry fire like you could have chased away Okcheong, who is as arrogant as water, but you turned him into fire.â
âIâll say it again, Iâm not good at random conversations.â
âHehehe!â
What was so funny was that Takmujaâs laughter was so heartbreaking.
Tak Mu-ja, who had been laughing for a while, stopped laughing and looked at Yeon Ho-jeong. The laughter stopped, but the bright smile remained.
âYouâre right.â
ââ¦?â
âActually, I was the one who didnât catch it. âThey could have caught it, they could have locked it up, but they didnât.â
âI see.â
âI wanted to raise it as a pottery, but that was just my greed. Of course, I was confident that if I could complete it, I would be able to become a master of shaman martial arts and a hermit equivalent to the Sampungjo master, butâ¦â
Takmujaâs smile changed slightly.
That smile, which was close to a bitter smile, made the once bright impression of Tak Mu-ja somewhat dark.
âThere was always a desire for the worldly life in his heart. I had a lot of worries, but I taught him with all my enthusiasm. âI have no doubt that even if you are immersed in the dark and dangerous life of the world, you will always return to the center.â
âI guess I was the only one getting criticized for no reason.â
âYou idiot, believing and regretting are two different things. Since you are the one who ruined such a talented person, you can at least accept the grumbles of your teacher, right?â
âSo is this enough?â
âwhat? Fuhahahaha!â
A lively laugh burst out from Takmujaâs mouth again.
âThe Yeon family of Gangdong has been famous for raising guild leaders recognized by the world for generations. âIt is truly strange how a special species like you was born in such a righteous family.â
Strangely enough, Yeon Ho-jeong felt the same way.
All of the martial arts masters he had seen so far were extraordinary.
That extraordinaryness was close to an intimidating feeling that prevented others from easily approaching him. This was true not only of Myeonggeuk, but also of Eumje Ha Eungyo, King Amwang Tanghyeong, and even Tuwang Yangcheon.
Although they were absolute people with completely different prayers, it was difficult for anyone to keep their sanity in front of them. They had that âpowerâ.
But Takmuja was different.
A meeting that was so unexpected yet continued naturally. Nevertheless, he does not seem like a master who is praised as a legend.
It just feels like seeing a good-natured and wise old man in every village.
As Takmuja said, he was a person who did not fit the title of Geomseon at all. Either in a good way or in a bad way.
âFun. This is what makes the world interesting. âI donât like it, but itâs been a while since Iâve seen someone who holds his head high and says everything he wants to say even in front of the name Geomseon.â
âI do this to everyone, not just seniors.â
âI think so. Judging by the waiting at the counter, he doesnât seem like the type of person anyone would notice. âHeâs the type of guy who pushes his opponents into his enclosure and plays with them as he pleases.â
âTo that extentâ¦â
âBut you shouldnât do that in front of the emperor.â
ââ¦?!â
For a moment, Yeon Ho-jeongâs eyes wavered.
The sudden mention of the emperorâs presence in the flowing conversation was enough to embarrass Yeon Ho-jeong.
Takmuja rested his chin as if showing off. As expected, it was an action that did not seem like a Taoist.
âDonât you have business at the imperial palace?â
ââ¦How did you know that?â
âHow do you know? âI know because I overheard your conversation with that vicious bastard named Gok-gyeong.â
ââ¦!â
Did you hear the whole conversation from that far away?
âIs that possible?â
I donât know. I thought it would be absolutely impossible, but for some reason, it seemed like this mastermind could pull off a strange trick that would make the impossible possible.
Takmuja shook his head.
âIt doesnât matter how you heard it. âThe important thing is that with your unyielding personality, if you enter the imperial palace, you and your entire clan could be in danger.â
Takmuja said they were a clan.
If you are Yeonhojeongâs clan, you are talking about Yeonga. It meant that Byuksan Yeonga, one of the six powerful families, could be in danger just by his presence.
âI havenât yet entered the imperial palaceâ¦â
âI guess youâre not sure yet. But if there is no other way, I will definitely enter the imperial palace.â
ââ¦.â
âI didnât know why you were so worried about the imperial palace, but after talking to you, I understood. Would a vicious bastard like you have anything to worry about? âThe only people you have to worry about are your family.â
Yeon Ho-jeong looked at Tak Mu-ja with confused eyes.
Takmujaâs smile deepened. SÑará´h the ηovÑlFire .net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
âYou have nice eyes.â
âyes?â
âHe may have a three-headed, six-fat monster in his heart, but he still knows how to care for his family. Yes, thatâs right. âThat way you donât fall completely into darkness.â
Why?
As I listened to Tak Mu-jaâs remarks, I felt that my anxious mind was calming down little by little.
Yeon Ho-jeong, who was quietly looking at Tak Mu-ja, asked in a serious tone.
âYou said you wanted to see me.â
âIt did.â
âItâs not just because of Okcheong, not because of the battle that took place in front of Mt. Wudang, not because of senior Gokgyeong, or even because of my age.â
âOf course it is.â
âWhy are you talking to me alone? Why are you talking only to me, leaving Senior Gok and Liang aside?â
âTo make you feel better.â
Yeon Ho-jeongâs eyebrows twitched.
âWhat do you mean by that?â
âI donât know what will happen in the future, but if you go to the imperial palace now, you will have a hard time surviving.â
âWhy is that so?â
âThere are no standards. I couldnât resolve the concerns that I didnât even recognize because they were old. So, when I see people in the imperial palace, I donât know how to treat them, and when I meet the emperor, I donât know how to act in front of him.â
âWhat the hellâ¦.â
âI thought that because of that, my disciples and shamans in the future could also be harmed.â
Takmuja pointed to Yeonhojeong with his finger.
âBecause of you, not anyone else.â
Yeon Ho-jeong was embarrassed.
âI amâ¦â
âYou may be as ugly as a monster, but the spark of agreement has just begun to ignite for you. Aside from that, you never see the people you hold in your arms go wrong.â
ââ¦.â
âSomeday you will have to make a choice. âThe people you care about and the people you care a little less about.â
âyes?â
âWasnât it like that in Sacheon too? âYou poisoned the Dragon Head Ark of Openness?â
ââ¦?!â
âNo matter how urgent the situation was, how could you have done something like that? Was there really no other way than that?â
At that moment, Yeon Ho-jeong felt a chill running down his spine.
Zhuo Muziâs face became serious.
âI wonât talk too much. Other than this, I donât have anything else to say.â
ââ¦?â
âGo over to the black road.â
âWhatâ¦â
âDonât worry about it, just go to Heukdo and eat everything.â
