Episode 797Black Emperor (2)
âWhew.â
A thick heat radiated from Makwonâs body as he pushed down on the iron bar with all his might.
Tsutsutsu.
The sweat evaporated and the damp clothes became as soft as new.
âNow itâs time to save it.â
He had lost a significant portion of his inner strength in the process of deciphering the damned poison of the Shinhwa religion.
Of course, for an expert of that level, loss of internal strength was not that big of a problem. If it was lost entirely, it would be fine, but if a part of it was lost, it could be restored in a matter of years or months depending on the effort.
Fortunately, Makwonâs efforts were fierce, and thanks to that, he was able to restore the original strength to its original level.
âItâs a shame.â
Makwon quenched his appetite.
Although I have not fully recovered yet, the quality of my strength recovered was the same as before. So I had no regrets about it.
However, he hoped to achieve higher enlightenment. Therefore, except for the time when he used pupil (movement) and left gong (åå), he devoted himself to meditation and martial arts training.
But there was no growth. To be precise, there was a change, but it did not advance to a higher level.
âI canât help it.â
This wasnât the first time this happened. If regrets accumulate and become toxic, you will lose even what you have.
Being able to remain detached without being disappointed by the reality of lack of progress is also a skill of a master.
Wooooow!
A subtle glow rose from his body.
It was the Heavenly Martial God Weapon of the First World, a divine skill created by mixing the martial arts mind and his own enlightenment. His aura was cool and hard as steel, as if he were looking at a razor-sharp weapon blade.
Makwon opened his mouth.
âIf itâs been a while since you last saw each other, you should come and say hello. Why are you just standing there and watching?â
Makwon turned his head and saw Yeonhojeong.
Yeon Ho-jeong smiled and lowered his head.
âHow are you?â
âHaha, itâs been a while.â
Makwon approached Yeonhojeong and tapped him on the shoulder as if he was happy to see him.
These were words and actions that conveyed pure joy. Although the age difference was significant, Yeon Ho-jeong thought he was like an older brother.
âHow did you handle the incident well?â
âof course. âThank you for always worrying about me.â
âThis person knows how to say things like that now. They say a man becomes an adult when he goes out into the world, and it seems like he has definitely grown more than before.â
Makwon burst out laughing.
Yeon Ho-jeong thought as she saw him smiling brightly.
âHe is a good person.â
Before he was a great martial artist, Makwon was a person with outstanding charm.
He is also a person who risked his life for martial arts. In addition, with his natural talent and endless efforts, he achieved the highest level of power in the midfield.
Even so, Yeonhojeongâs advanced military power was put aside. I wasnât pretending not to know, it was because I was glad to see Yeon Ho-jeong appear.
âItâs not just that.â
Although Makwon was surprised by the growth of others, he was not an envious or jealous person.
The reason was clear. This is because his dream is to grow in his martial arts, not to beat others.
Of course, Makwonâs personality was still surprising. It could be said that Yeon Ho-jeong had an especially surprising personality, as she had experienced jealousy, envy, and suspicion from countless people.
âHow are you feeling?â
âYouâre fine. âThanks to you and God, my life was saved.â
Yeon Ho-jeong grinned.
âEven if I tell you to forget, I donât think you will ever forget, so from now on, whenever I ask you out for a drink, you have to drink with me no matter what.â
âHahaha! Thatâs how it should be! Is it just a place to drink? âIf you ever need help, I will put aside my ten days to run to you.â
âI feel reassured just by hearing your words.â
âWell, since I have decided to spend the rest of my life with you, nothing special will happen.â
Yeon Ho-jeongâs face became awkward.
âYou donât have to do that.â
âNo, that doesnât work. âWould it be okay to pick up the words the man once said and write them down?â
âIf you are a senior, you can live comfortably anywhere in the world.â
âI guess so. Instead, you wonât be able to live comfortably anywhere in the world. âBecause I will always feel the compulsion to repay the favor I have received from you.â
âKung.â
âAside from everything else, I also have a lot to learn. Are you saying that martial arts will open a proper path just by practicing martial arts? âI plan to gain a lot by learning about the world with you.â
âIt could be dangerous.â
The fact that he said this even though he was aware of Baek Byeong-shinâs military power meant that the reality Yeon Ho-jeong was facing was not easy.
Makwon said with a cheerful face.
âIt was you who saved me from that dangerous situation. Thereâs no need to say more. âIâll take good care of you in the future.â
Yeon Ho-jeong chuckled.
âIf you take care of a junior who is so young, you will experience a lot of embarrassing things.â
âI am not a person who cares about the evaluation of others.â
Makwon slapped Yeonhojeong on the back.
âInstead of doing this, letâs go somewhere and have a drink.â âThereâs nothing else to do, right?â
âSomething to doâ¦â
Yeon Ho-jeong looked back the way he came.
But even for a moment.
âYes, not for the time being. âWhy donât you go have a drink?â
âHahaha good. ah! Why donât you call your colleagues as you go? âIf itâs the people you care about, theyâll be my colleagues too.â
âHavenât we all met people once before? âWeâll have a formal meeting later, and have a nice drink with me today.â
âHehehe, thatâs good too. Letâs go.â
The two people left the Mukryongbu and headed to Changanâs guest house.
The distance was quite far, but that was only true for ordinary people who had not learned martial arts. For the two men who had reached the pinnacle of the powerful martial arts people, the trip to Janganâs guest house was only a short walk away for a drink.
âI see.â
There were many people in the guesthouse.
The two people drank in a corner of the top floor of the guesthouse.
âKing Bi was the head of the Gwanghyeolgyoâ¦â
A light of anger appeared in Makwonâs eyes as he spoke softly.
Strictly speaking, he was not from the Central Plains. Although he was a martial artist, he was not a person who valued blood ties in the first place.
I just didnât like what the three schools were planning. Moreover, he almost died due to the Mythologyâs scheme. I couldnât have a good impression about the three schools.
âItâs truly terrifying. How great it would be if we could trust the world as it appears on the outside. âIn a world I donât know, such unimaginable schemes were rampant.â
Yeon Ho-jeong said calmly after emptying his glass.
âHow could it be that there are only three schools? Things like that happen frequently everywhere in the world. âA member of the old Guju famous family, who had become extinct even in his hometown, was breathing proudly.â
âHuh.â
âItâs like that everywhere. Andâ¦â
Yeon Ho-jeong laughed bitterly.
âI donât have the confidence to live without doing something like that for the rest of my life.â
Tuk.
Makwon put down his glass and quietly looked at Yeonhojeong.
Yeon Ho-jeong wordlessly filled Makwonâs cup and then filled her own cup as well.
âyou.â
âyes.â
âIs there something thatâs bothering you?â
âHaha, thereâs always something that bothers me. âBecause I have a lot of work to do and am very busy.â
âI guess so.â
Makwon stroked his chin.
âI feel like I have more concerns than when I saw it before. âI lived a busy life back then, but I really didnât hold back.â
Was it so?
Yeon Ho-jeong quietly recalled the past and smiled. seaÊá´h thÑ NôᴠelFirÑ.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
âI think it was like that. âActually, I donât remember much.â
Makwon raised his glass.
Yeon Ho-jeong clinked his glass and emptied his drink again.
âAre you drunk?â
âyes?â
Yeon Ho-jeong stroked her face.
Itâs not that he wasnât, his face was really warm. I donât know, but it must have turned red.
âItâs already like this.â
Even if you become a transcendental master, you can detoxify and blow away the incoming alcoholic energy moment by moment. So the more expert you are, the more difficult it is to get drunk.
To really get drunk, you must completely control your internal energy and let the incoming cycle just happen. In fact, both Yeon Ho-jeong and Mak Won were drinking while controlling their internal energy. Because you drink to get drunk.
Still, the body that has broken through the infinite is so close to perfection that it is not easy to get drunk even if you control your inner energy. The alcohol that Yeon Ho-jeong drank was strong and he drank it quickly.
âIt feels good to feel dazed for the first time in a long time.â
âIt looks like you have some concerns.â
Makwon emptied his glass and said.
âWhat did I call you before?â
âyes?â
âItâs a title. âI canât remember because Iâve been worrying about my body for a while.â
Yeon Ho-jeong tilted his head.
âI donât remember either, but wouldnât you have just called me Deputy Yeon?â
âOh, did you? Now that I think about it, it seems like that was the case.â
âYes, I did.â
âFrom now on, call me brother.â
Yeon Ho-jeongâs eyes widened.
Makwon chuckled.
âwhy? âYou donât like it?â
âIs that possible? But no matter whatâ¦â
âYou donât seem to like it.â
âAbsolutely not. âI just think it could ruin your reputation.â
âWho will it be? Your military power is already that of a martial god, so who can you become? âSooner or later, your reputation will spread throughout the Four Seas.â
He was already causing a stir in the world with the title of King. Only Makwon, who had been devoted to training alone, did not know.
âAnd the truth is, who is it and who is it? If we get along, we can become friends and sworn brothers. âWhen you meet a woman, do you look at the other personâs family before meeting her?â
âhaha.â
Yeon Ho-jeong smiled cheerfully at the words that still felt pure.
âIf you say so, itâs good for me. âNow that you have a reliable older brother to look after you, Iâll pour you a drink.â
âItâs good. âIâm going to get a drink from Kanghoâs younger brother, who I have for the first time in my life.â
âI donât know if my father will scold me later for making this genealogy tree.â
âDog genealogy?â
âWhen it comes to your reputation, the distribution is at the highest level, but since you have a man like that as your older brother, the problem is not just a problem.â
âSince when did you start worrying about such useless things?â
The two people laughed and clinked their glasses.
How long has it been like that?
thud!
Yeon Ho-jeong hit his head on the table. And then he made a sound and fell into sleep.
It was amazing.
Yeon Ho-jeong never got drunk and lost consciousness at any time. This is because I have always lived a life filled with tension, and there was a compulsion not to show any loopholes.
Moreover, although they were close friends, they did not see each other often. I got so drunk in front of that person that I lost my mind.
Grumble.
Makwon, who had filled his empty glass, looked at Yeonhojeong with his arms crossed.
A look of pity appeared on Makwonâs face.
âWhat is this young guy worried about so much?â
Yeon Ho-jeong did not reveal his concerns until the end. And Makwon also didnât bother to ask what his worries were.
Actually, I was worried, but I just felt dizzy. That was how Makwon saw it.
It even felt like he had deliberately chosen someone he had a close connection with but had not seen often, rather than someone he was familiar with.
Perhaps he wanted to relieve himself in a different way in a different atmosphere than usual.
âI wonder if a person would not get tired and exhausted if he were to wander around the entire central plain and complete various tasks without resting even for a moment.â
After emptying his glass, Makwon spoke calmly to himself.
âI donât know whatâs going on, but when youâre confused, trust your judgment. âIf you spend too much time without confidence, you become a fool like me.â
