Episode 225 A past that cannot be thrown away, a future that cannot be grasped (5)Coogung!
Goguâs eyes sparkled.
A strong vibration felt from far away. The clash of demonic energy, which was difficult to feel except for Gogu, signaled the beginning of a terrifying battle.
âWhy are you doing that?â
ââ¦.â
âAre you going to fight against the Three Dukes?â
This guy knows everything without even looking.
Gogu nodded.
âI guess so.â
âgreat. âI heard that the formation surrounding the Demon Godâs Palace eliminates much of the shock wave.â
âThe leader has reached a level that we cannot even dare to guess. âThe three gongja who are dealing with him are also experts who have reached the extreme level, so it is only natural that this level of shock will be caused.â
âAs expected, you know very well.â
ââ¦.â
âOh, Iâm sorry. âThere was no other intention.â
âI know.â
Ho Yo-seong, who was quietly looking down at Datak, shook his head.
âWell, I guess that wonât work today.â
âWhat do you mean?â
âIâm going to stop working today and have a drink.â
He said he would start drinking in broad daylight. Itâs almost inevitable that people will call him negligent in his duties, but if the target is Ho Yo-seong, everyone has no choice but to keep quiet.
âAre you very busy these days too?â
The sight of his body trembling as if he was fed up is a sight to behold.
âDonât even talk. It is said that the position of general military officer is bound to be busy, but hasnât everything happened especially recently? âItâs not that hard to figure out whether to fix this or that.â
âRight.â
Most of the recent incidents on campus are due to Seoryang. Although it was precisely because of the succession battle, it was Seoryang who fought and poured fuel on the fiery battle.
As for Ho Ya-seong, Seo-ryang is the person whom he really wants to throw insults at.
âMaster, would you like a drink too?â
âGood.â
âuh? How amazing.â
âWhat do you mean?â
âI knew you would say this. âI have no hobby of drinking alcohol while working. If you want to drink it, just drink it.â âLike this.â
The exaggerated imitation of Goguâs voice is comical.
It was a joke that made people laugh, but Gogu did not laugh. Ho Yo-seong scratched his head as if embarrassed.
âI may be a bit fair.â
âI know.â
ââ¦.â
ââ¦.â
âOh liquid? Geomnamchun? âWhat can I get you?â
âGive me anything.â
âgreat!â
Ho Yo-seong, who brought a large bottle of alcohol with a happy face, shook the bottle.
âOh, itâs decreased a bit? âI guess Iâll have to save it again.â
When I looked at him, it seemed like he usually drank a glass of wine while working. Gogu, who was contemplating whether to fire her for neglecting her duties, gave up her worries as she smelled the liquor rising from the glass.
âLetâs have a drink!â
The two people coolly emptied their glasses.
Hu Yaoshengâs face turned red. On the other hand, Goguâs face was fine.
âIf you drink it when youâre tired, youâll get a kick out of it. Very good. âIâll just get drunk and sleep all day.â
âItâs a well-aged liquor.â
âNo problem. This is the alcohol I got after asking the religious leader. âIâm not giving this to anyone.â
âThank you.â
âKyaha! âI didnât mean to say thank you.â
Several orders of alcohol were passed around like that.
âHow was it?â
âWhat do you mean?â
âTo be exact, when Lord Song approached you, were you tempted by his words?â
Suddenly, a dangerous question arises.
But is it because the atmosphere is soft? The question doesnât sound that dangerous or aggressive.
Gogu calmly nodded.
âIt was hard.â
Hu Yao-shengâs eyes lit up.
âThatâs amazing. Are you acknowledging that?â
âIf you decide to answer a question, I think itâs best to be honest.â
This is another unexpected answer. Any Gogu I had seen so far would have either not responded at all or said it was none of his business.
âIs it because I clashed with the Three Dukes a lot? This person has changed a lot too.â
Hu Yaosheng smiled.
âThat is correct. âIf you answer honestly, I donât know what to do.â
âWhat about the general military?â
âyes? Me?â
âBy organizing a drinking party like this, you are evaluating me as a possible threat, right?â seaÊá´h thÑ NôᴠelFirÑ.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
ââ¦.â
âDo you look okay?â
Hu Yaochengâs eyes as he looked at Gogu became a little more serious.
âDid you know?â
âexactly.â
âHaha, this is embarrassing. Since the head of the family gave an honest answer, I should also be honest, right?â
âSure.â
âMy desire to have a drink with the head of the family was sincere. I didnât ask to drink because I wanted to find out the true intentions of the head of the family. Andâ¦â
Ho Yo-seong smiled and nodded.
âIt looks okay. âI still have ambition in my heart, but I also know that that ambition is nothing more than dross.â
ââ¦.â
âIt looks like he was impressed by the Three Dukes.â
There is no way you would be happy about having your true feelings revealed to others.
The same was true for Gogu. But he didnât react much.
Because that is true.
Gogu, who emptied his glass without saying a word, opened his mouth.
âSam Gongja is a great person.â
âWhat can I say?â
âItâs even more amazing because he doesnât have any regrets about being the leader. âIf it were me, no matter how big my dream was, I wouldnât be able to brush it off without regret.â
ââ¦Ohh? âYou have no regrets about being the head of a religious cult?â
âYou didnât know?â
âOf course. There is a lot of talk about a genius soldier who sits and sees a thousand miles and comes up with living strategies, but I am also a human being. âYou wonât know unless you talk to them in person.â
Heâs also secretly bragging about himself.
Ho Yo-seong bent his upper body forward as if he was genuinely curious.
âDid the Three Dukes do that? âYouâre not very interested in the position of leader?â
âIf you didnât know, I wouldnât say more about that.â
âThey say youâre not guilty even if you curse the emperor in a place where no one is watching. Letâs have a chat over drinks. âDid you really do that?â
âPlease pour me a drink.â
âIf you donât tell me, I wonât follow you.â
widely.
ââ¦all right. I understand. âWhy are you putting down your glass?â
ââ¦.â
âTch, youâre not having fun.â
Ho Yo-seong, who was filling his glass with regret, snapped his fingers as if he suddenly remembered something.
âNow that I think about it, where is Gwanpyeong?â
âItâs in a special room in the basement of the criminal court.â
The person who died on the day of the execution was not Gwanpyeong, but an attendant of Jin Gwan-yong dressed up as Gwanpyeong. He was also a subordinate of Gwanpyeong and a member of the group that worked with Mokbi.
âI heard a rumor that it was a special room in the basement of the criminal court. âItâs very spacious.â
âThere are private training rooms, a restaurant, and even a sleeping room. Itâs a suitable place for closed-door training. âIt was also a training ground for past heads of clans.â
âAre you practicing martial arts there?â
âItâs polishing⦠In some ways, it can be seen as polishing. âHe is now abandoning his martial arts skills.â
âEh?â
âThe Three Dukes said so. That martial arts will eat away at your spirit as time goes by. âIt would be quicker to throw it away now and start again from the beginning.â
âokay.â
Ho Yaoseong quenched his appetite.
âThey said they would let me ascend to the top level, but first they took away my martial arts skills.â
âhmm?â
âOh, didnât you know? âThe Three Dukes made a deal with Guan Ping, and Guan Pingâs request was to help him ascend to the highest rank.â
Gogu chuckled.
âWhy are you smiling?â
âI do that because itâs funny.â
âWhat?â
âI also asked the Three Dukes to spar with me until I reach the peak.â
Hu Yaosheng scratched his head.
âIt looks like the Three Dukes have an easy secret to reaching the top level, right? âItâs not a promise that can be easily overused.â
âIâm sure it wasnât overused. âI will challenge myself until I succeed.â
âWell, thatâs it.â
Hu Yaosheng buried his back in the chair. As I laid my back on the soft chair, I felt completely drowsy.
âAnyway, with this, all those who would stand in the way of the Three Dukes have disappeared.â
âI guess so.â
âIâm worried about what the demons will think, but Iâll figure it out on my own.â
Ho Yaoseongâs eyes, looking up at the ceiling, were colored with an unknown emotion.
âThe next leader is Seoryang⦠I donât know when I will be handed over the position as leader, but I donât think it will take long.â
âI guess so. âBecause I have enough ability.â
âI thought that the moment of regime change would inevitably come at some point, but I had no idea that time would come so quickly.â
âMe too.â
Hu Yaosheng smiled.
It was a smile that seemed somehow tired.
âPlease take care of me in the future.â
âMe too.â
Sigh!
It was time for the two people to clink their glasses.
Kugoogung!!
A stronger sound than before was transmitted to the military department.
It was so intense that even Hoyo-seong could be recognized this time. Considering the intensity of the impact, it would have been transmitted not only to the military department but also to the Hwanheewon kidney department.
Hu Yaoshengâs eyes deepened.
âYouâve become stronger.â
Gogu, lost in thought for a moment, nodded.
âItâs not sponsorship.â
âhmm? âThen where is it?â
âItâs Panmajeong.â
ââ¦!â
âIt is difficult to express your martial arts skills with the word âextreme strength.â âI canât even guess what heights he has reached, but I think I know his disposition to some extent.â
âtendency?â
âIf youâre going to do it clumsily, arenât you the type of person who wouldnât even use martial arts?â
âThatâs true.â
âIf you look at the temperament of shock, it seems like you are planning to hit. âIt doesnât contain any fighting spirit, so it seems to be a form of martial arts, but even so, if itâs the masterâs martial arts skill, the Demon God Palace can evaporate in just three moves.â
ââ¦Youâre amazing.â
âThere is only Panmajeong. There is no area other than Panmajeong that can handle the martial arts skills of the leader. Andâ¦â
Gogu smiled bitterly.
âIt seems that the Three Dukes are responding properly to the martial arts skills of the religious leader.â
* * *
Quang!
âOops!â
With a groan of frustration, Seo-ryang stepped back like crazy. The fist that offset the long hit hurt as if it would break.
This was not a discussion about the level of martial arts. It wasnât an overwhelming difference in strength or strength or weakness in martial arts, but it was closer to just being pushed away by force.
âA tremendous external skill!â
The level of training of the body is on a different level. The height of nearly seven feet and the frame of a mountain like a mountain did not just appear.
To contain a lake, you must have a vessel the size of a lake, and to contain an ocean, you must have a vessel the size of an ocean. Also, the durability of the bowl is just as important as its size.
That was Lee Cheon-sangâs body. A body that was trained to the point where there was no damage to the body even when using such martial arts, capable of performing the strongest martial arts of all time and all times, was no different from a new soldier in itself.
Faaagh!
After retreating for a long time, Seoryang turned around to get rid of the shock, then kicked off the ground and flew up again.
Lee Cheon-sangâs magical eyes flashed.
It was a speed that exceeded expectations. Despite suffering significant internal and external injuries, he demonstrates martial arts skills beyond his original capabilities. That meant he was desperate.
âYou risked your life.â
The corners of Lee Cheon-sangâs mouth rose. Even though he was staring, Seo-ryang didnât realize that he was smiling.
Slurp.
Lee Cheon-sangâs body moved to the side.
Ugh!
Seo-ryang immediately moved to the place where Lee Cheon-sang had moved.
You canât change direction with both feet. He lowered his posture, mobilized both arms, and kicked the ground to change direction. It was an elasticity that reached the extreme of animal-like movement.
Xu Liangâs hands moved quickly.
Papa pang!
All the herbs in the Heavenly Demonâs Byeokryeok-won were thrown into Ilsu-yu seven times. It was an explosive technique that would put even a master of extreme magic at risk for his life.
Boom!
Lee Cheon-sang struck down all of those murderous fighting techniques with one hand. I couldnât believe it when I saw how he was able to block so many blows at a speed slower than that of martial arts.
Whoa!
Seo-ryangâs body rolled and bounced off the ground. A gentle push on the shoulder was all it took, but the extreme shock felt deep in my bones.
âTsk!â
Seoryangâs body stopped only after breaking a rock.
Lee Cheon-sang opened his mouth.
âQuiteâ¦â
Paaaaaa!
He doesnât even listen to everything he says. Lee Cheon-sangâs smile deepened as he saw Seoryang rushing back at a faster pace than before.
âGood.â
The start is good. The strength that exceeded expectations and the concentration of throwing away oneâs dignity to attack were also good.
But thatâs it.
âWhere should we play?â
Kugugoogung!!
A terrifying magical energy gushed out from Lee Cheon-sangâs body.
