Episode 839Seeds of Conflict (5)
âOh!â
Admiration appeared on Makwonâs face.
âIs that the Murim Alliance?â
Inside Daebyeolsan Mountain, full of unmelted snow.
The appearance of the Murim Alliance, with its enormous high gates surrounding countless buildings, was so impressive that it was reminiscent of a small country.
âWowâ¦â
Jinyang looked at the Murim Alliance in fascination.
Even though he possessed enormous strength and power unbefitting his age, he wandered around in the shadows, avoiding the eyes of the world. Iâve heard a lot about the Murim League, but this was my first time seeing it in person.
Indeed, it was like the Baekdo Martial Alliance that divided the world together with the Mukryongbu. The panoramic view of the Murim Alliance seen from the foot of the mountain was truly overwhelming to the viewer.
âWas the Murimmaeng that great?â
âIt is the headquarters of the Baekdo sects scattered throughout the endless world. âThat much is natural.â
The faces of Yeon Ho-jeong and Mukbi Kang-ryang, who saw the Murim Alliance for the first time in a long time, were full of familiar joy.
On the other hand, Paeyulâs face showed a particularly sad look. Excluding Yeon Ho-jeong, there was only one person who belonged to the orthodox martial arts sect. Although I have a rough personality, I couldnât help but feel special emotions when I saw the Murim League, which was like my second home.
Yeon Ho-jeong glanced at Paeyul.
âAre you mentally prepared?â
âof course.â
After a quick answer, Paeyul paused for a moment and licked his appetite.
âHonestly, itâs still a bit like that.â
Yeon Ho-jeong smiled.
âSo do i. âThe thought of being stared at by so many people already makes my bones tingle.â
âYou have a position, so it might end up as a glare, but I might get beaten up by a long sentence.â
âSo, even if you go back now.â
âI said I would get hit, but I didnât say I would get hit to death.â
âIsnât being beaten by someone your age a shame as severe as dying?â
âThatâs why I donât feel safe.â
Yeon Ho-jeong smiled and took a deep breath.
In the still cold air of late winter, the green scent of spring, heralding the beginning of all things, was slowly being captured.
âLetâs go.â
The main gate to the south of the Murim League was wide open. And countless people were standing in line in front of it.
At the forefront were the monks and elders of the Tanggeum Murim League, and behind them were the inner combat units that had not gone on an operation, lined up on the left and right.
That wasnât all. Although they were clearing the road because they were in a position, there were countless warriors behind the fighting unit, their eyes fixed on the main gate.
âhmm.â
Seunghyeonjinin glanced back.
Behind the fighting unit, countless faces of warriors were visible.
It was dispatched by an ambassador extraordinaire and plenipotentiary officially appointed by the Mukryongbu. In fact, the dispatcher was the minor master of the Mukryongbu, and the identity of the minor master was the eldest son of the Yeon family, a member of the Tanggeum six families.
He has a history so bizarre that it is difficult to explain even with the word unique. From the perspective of the members of the Murim League, on the bad side, it is the return of a traitor, and on the good side, it is the return of a talented person who can only be shaken.
But what do the warriors look like?
âItâs amazing.â
Hearing Seunghyeonjininâs words, a look of puzzlement appeared on Bokhosaeâs face.
âyes?â
âHonestly, I was nervous inside because I thought what would happen if the warriors of my hometown started a riot. âThe higher-ups have given strict orders not to act rashly, but crowd psychology is a very scary thing.â
âOf course.â
âBut look at their faces.â
Bonggong and the elders looked back at the warriors.
Among them, there were definitely people who did not view this welcoming ceremony favorably. The face, stained with jealousy, anger, and a sense of betrayal, has a harsh expression that cannot be described even with the word cold.
But these people did not do much. Almost all of the faces were full of anticipation and longing.
Seunghyunjin smiled.
âI think perhaps we who claim to be the leaders of the alliance are blind.â
âHeâs blindâ¦â
âDaesu Yeon, or Sobuju Yeon, has established countless majors since Kang Hoâs departure. I gained fame all the time, but I never cared about it. Because his eyes were burning with only one goal.â
âhaha.â
âThey seem to know that too. âYouâre welcome.â
Several servants and elders smiled.
At that time, Jangmun-in, Sunwoo, shook his head.
âIt wonât be like that.â
âhmm? âWhat do you mean?â
âOf course, they canât possibly be unaware of the contribution made by Sobuju. And you know itâs a big deal. However, unless you see his actions in person, you cannot realize how great his feat is.â
âHuh.â
âNow their eyes are shining with longing for the strong.â
Sunwoo smiled.
âLoo Ji-soo, a genius who achieved explosive growth with countless majors at an early age, was finally named to Seongcheon. âItâs enough to become an object of admiration.â
âOh my.â
âIt may be a somewhat cold remark, but in their eyes, Yeon Sobujuâs talent is at a level that would be difficult to even be jealous of.â
âI guess so. Sunwoo Jang Mun-inâs words are also correct.â
At that time, Peng Wugang said with a bitter smile.
âThat is also correct, but my opinion is different.â
âPaenggaju?â
âThe exploits made by Yeon Sobuju, the martial arts accumulated by going through tough times. Itâs more than enough to make the world go crazy. But there is a real reason why they are so enthusiastic about Yeon Sobuju.â
âThe real reason?â
âItâs unprecedented.â
âexceptionâ¦?â
Peng Mu-gang scratched his head.
âWe, the warlike people of the Paeng clan, are not as strict about etiquette as other clans, so of course we have no dignity. âWhat is surprising is that writers from other small and medium-sized sects regard us as friendly.â
The public ambassador said with a smile.
âThe simple atmosphere of a wealthy family would be the ideal image of a prestigious family that is closest to the people.â
âHaha, thank you for the compliment. In any case, their enthusiasm for Yeon Sobuju means that they have not become complacent.â
âYou didnât settle?â
âWhy would a person who was born as the eldest son of a prestigious family representing the White Island Martial Arts have any regrets and switch to the Black Island Martial Arts? To be honest, with Yeon Sobujuâs ability and Zhugegunâs political power, it would not have been that difficult to maintain a relationship with Mulongbu if there had been proper coordination.â
âhmm.â
Peng Wugangâs eyes sparkled.
âEven though he was born into a prestigious family in the White Island, he sacrificed himself to the Black Island for the sake of the world. And in the eyes of warriors, most of whom were not from prestigious families, Sobujuâs choices and actions would have looked completely different from those of other warriors from prestigious families.â
Yongseonjinin, a member of the Hwasan Sect, cleared his throat.
âItâs a statement that could be misleading.â
âItâs not that they have a bad view of prestigious families. However, for other martial artists, a famous painting is both an object of admiration and at the same time perceived as a wall that cannot be overcome. âTo be honest, our presence made them feel ashamed.â
The other monks and elders also cleared their throats at Peng Wugangâs honest words.
âKite Sobuju was different. Even though he came from a prestigious family, he was never boastful or boastful based on his reputation. On the contrary, his personality cannot be said to be a model of whiteness. On the contrary, it was rough like a black sword, and at times, too extreme.â
ââ¦.â
âHowever, the nature of such carelessness was more relatable to the public. Although he possesses words and behavior that are not typical of a prestigious family, he does not rely on his reputation and does not hesitate to go to the extreme of converting to the Black Island for the sake of the worldâ¦â
Peng Mu-gang burst into laughter.
âYou canât help but be fascinated. Even I, the owner of the Paeng family, sometimes feel warm when I think of Yeon Sobuju. âWhat can other people say?â
It was quite a self-interested remark. It was also a remark that excessively highlighted only the good aspects of Yeonhojeong.
However, he understood the public mind much better than Seung Hyeon-jin or Sun-woo Jang Mun-in.
In fact, that was the reason the warriors were so enthusiastic about Yeon Ho-jeong.
To walk steadily toward oneâs goal without paying attention to what others think.
As you live in this world, you have no choice but to pay attention to what people around you think, even if you donât want to. It works both bad and good depending on the time. It is an issue that cannot be separated from human society.
Yeon Ho-jeong was far removed from such social problems. So the evaluation of him can be good or bad.
However, the reason why Yeon Ho-jeongâs actions so far have been viewed more positively by the public than expected is because, as Peng Mu-gang said, he was not like a âman from a prestigious familyâ.
A person with a personality that is commonly seen in those around him. However, people who do not show off their good looks often.
It was bound to be fascinating.
âI hope you like it, Yeongaju.â
Zhuge Wenhu grinned and gently touched Yeon Weiâs arm.
âHow do you feel as a parent whose child is recognized by the world like this?â
Yeonwi smiled bitterly.
âDonât tease me, soldier.â
âha ha ha!â
âNo matter what his choice was, many people were embarrassed and suffered damage because of him. âBefore it is a tribute to the Murim Alliance, it is an issue that, as a father, I cannot just ignore.â
âDonât be too rigid. âHe is the son of Lord Yeonga, but he is also the disciple of King Tu.â
âSo, shouldnât I be scolded instead of others in the name of being a father? âYour position as Tuwangâs disciple cannot be easily touched.â
âha ha ha.â
Bonggong and the elders burst into laughter at the sight of Yeonwi, who had an awkward and embarrassed expression, yet was filled with pride that could not be hidden.
Of course, not everyone felt that way. The faces of some of the elders, especially Namgungin, were stiff.
âLetâs calm down.â
Namgung-in sighed and said.
âWhatever it is, the heir of an inconvenient alliance is still visiting Meng. âYou need to be a little more calm because you are an ambassador who has come here on official business, not a friend of yours.â
It is no longer in a position to be called a late-stage index. In a cold sense, it is true that it is a late index, but it was the return of a great general who is difficult to establish such an expression in itself.
But it wasnât wrong. Zhuge Wenhu nodded.
âWhat Namgoongaju said is correct. âWe will soon enter that path, so get ready to receive guests.â
The leaders cleared their throats and straightened their postures.
And after a while.
Yeon Ho-jeong and his group appeared awkwardly between the bare, feverish trees.
Yeonwiâs eyes shook greatly.
âHey.â
It hasnât even been that long since we broke up, but it was nice to see them again, as if we had seen each other for years.
âYouâve lost weight again.â
Yeonhojeong and his party walk proudly.
They stopped in front of Samjang Street, the main gate.
thud!
Yeon Ho-jeong, who had put down the Gwangryongbu, took control with great restraint.
âInk Dragonâ¦â
Is it because of awkwardness or tension that has not yet been resolved?
After quieting for a moment, Yeon Ho-jeong lowered her head a little more and spoke.
âMy name is Yeon Ho-jeong, Sobuju of Mukryongbu, who has been appointed as the special and plenipotentiary ambassador. âI donât know what to do with the overflowing hospitality.â
The public ambassador spoke on behalf of the public.
âYou had a hard time coming this far.â
ââ¦thank you.â
âWell, itâs cold, so letâs just go in.â
âyes.â
Yeon Ho-jeong straightened his back and crossed over the main gate.
âWow!!â
At that moment, a huge roar spread throughout the outer castle. SÑarch* The NôvelFire.nÑt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
Not only Yeon Ho-jeongâs group, but even the leaders looked at the warriors with bewildered faces.
The warriorsâ shouts were so loud that they seemed to turn the heavens and earth upside down. The longing of the Murim Alliance warriors for Yeonhojeong was much greater than the leaders thought.
Peng Mu-gang chuckled.
âI didnât know youâd like it this much.â
Ipmaeng was not the head of Uijeonggun, but the minor head of Mukryongbu.
It was the return of the prodigal son.
