Episode 626. A story in the reign (1)Three months later.
âThe weather is really nice.â
Namgungryong looked up at the sky with admiring eyes.
âItâs still chilly in the northern part of the Central Plains, but Guangdong Province is surprisingly warm. It wonât be strange for people who havenât learned Negong to feel hot.â
âI see.â
Namgunghwaâs face also showed a hint of excitement.
âThis is your first time coming to Guangdong Province. Is this your first time too?â
âYou know. I only trained at the closed museum to meet. Itâs not just Guangdong Province, there are many regions I havenât explored yet.â
âThatâs true.â
Namgunghwaâs excitement was a kind of excitement.
There were many areas south of the Yangtze River that had been controlled by the Mado Murim for generations. In particular, Hunan and Guangdong provinces were areas where the power of the magic school was very strong, and even the martial arts faction, which had a fairly large distribution, were reluctant to enter.
Among them, Guangdong Province was the region with the greatest influence.
There are hundreds of thousands of mountains in Guangdong Province. And there is the Heavenly Demon God Church on Mount Hapmandaesan.
In other words, it would not be an exaggeration to say that the entire Guangdong Province and even the Guangxi Province was the land of the Heavenly Demon Church. The influence of Shinism was so strong that the Murim people of the right faction had to disguise themselves to come down to Guangdong, the southernmost part of the Central Plains.
But who would have imagined that, let alone a disguise, one would be able to walk around proudly with the four letters âUicheon Geomse (ç¾©å¤©åæ²)â engraved on oneâs clothes?
âOh, by the way, sister.â
âwhy?â
âI heard your father told you to bring a sword for your sister? Did you take it?â
Namgunghwa took out a small dagger from his pocket.
âItâs here.â
Uicheon Geomryeong (義天å令). seaÊá´h thÑ Î·ovelFire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
It is a new sign that the Namgung family is trying to create and a symbol of absolute command. It was a sacred item that only the head of the family could carry, and it was also a symbol of military power that could hold and sway all warriors in the household.
Namgungryong looked at the dagger with curious eyes.
âThis is the dagger that will become the new divine Uicheon Sword Spirit?â
âthatâs right.â
âWhy does it look a bit crude? It doesnât even have a sharp edge. Itâs just steel, right now?â
Namgunghwa shrugged his shoulders.
âThey said that Shingyo has the best blacksmith in Jungwon. He said he would ask him to do it.â
âOh? This isnât the finished product?â
âUgh. Anyway, itâs too much to be sick of this right now.â
âThatâs why I asked, too. By the wayâ¦â
Surprise appeared on Namgungryongâs face as he examined the dagger.
âItâs not regular season, is it?â
âDo you want to listen?â
âyes?â
Namgunghwa threw a dagger at Namgungryong.
Namgungryongâs eyes widened for a moment as he suddenly picked up the dagger.
âOh, itâs really heavy?â
âyes?â
âDid you manage to carry it in your arms?â
âIâm used to it now.â
âWhat kind of iron is this?â
âFrom what I heard, they combined Ocheol (çéµ) to be used for Hyeoncheol (çéµ) paint and White Hancheol (ç½è²å¯éµ). I guess thatâs why such an odd color came out.â
Namgungryongâs eyes wavered.
âDo you want to paint Hyeoncheol?â
âYes. I heard that the leader of the church saved it for me?â
Hyeoncheol was a treasure among treasures that was more difficult to obtain than the perennial cold iron, which was famous for being rare in the martial arts world.
In terms of rarity, it is incomparable to 1000-year-old iron, and its strength and weight are especially evaluated as unprecedented. In some cases, it cost hundreds of thousands of gold, or even a million taels, to find the weight of a single pipe of iron.
âOh my⦠this is my first time seeing a sword made entirely of iron.â
âItâs my first time seeing it. I didnât even know it was this heavy.â
âI heard that melting the iron itself is almost impossible. I heard that even if you heat it for several days, it wonât melt unless you use the furnace that the old master of Sacheon has?â
âThatâs a bit of an exaggeration. Anyway, itâs true that there are no more than five people in the midfield who have a workshop that can handle Hyeon-cheol.â
âAnd one of them is in Protestantism?â
âI guess so.â
Namgungryong turned his head to the south.
Hundred Thousand Mountains could be seen in the distance.
Namgungryong, who was quietly looking at the Hundred Thousand Mountains Mountain, suddenly said.
âIsnât it amazing when you think about it?â
âWhat else?â
âIt was during the review meeting before. At the Cheonjung branch.â
âhuh.â
âAt that time, the leader suggested that we all gather together again next year.â
âYou said so.â
âBut we couldnât get together. To be honest, I was preparing.â
Namgunghwa shook his head.
âThere was nothing we could do because the situation was like that. After that, all sorts of things happened throughout the midfield.â
âOf course.â
âI didnât see you again, but I can still vividly see Master Seoâs confident eyes and voice. I never thought Iâd see such a unique person in my life.â
âMe too⦠um.â
âwhy?â
Namgungryong narrowed his eyes.
âSister, are you really interested in the religious leader?â
Namgunghwa blinked.
âwhy not?â
ââ¦.â
âI donât know what you want, but Iâm not that easy of a person.â
âPeople like people, but is there anything easy or difficult?â
âHuh? You took a hit?â
âHi-Hi.â
âWell⦠Actually, Master Seo isnât bad either. No, itâs not that bad, but it wonât be easy to find a husband like that.â
âAs expected, isnât it?â
âYes. But I wonât marry Mr. Seo. Well, he probably has no intention of marrying me either.â
âwhy?â
Namgoonghwa narrowed his eyes.
âBecause a man who is too busy has no choice but to neglect his family.â
Namgungryong chuckled.
âIf youâre a person in power, thatâs true.â
âHuh? What does that mean? So youâre saying that the religious leader is not a powerful person?â
âLet me correct this. An âordinaryâ person in power would be like that.â
âI donât know what youâre talking about?â
Namgungryong pointed his finger to the sky.
âHe is higher than the emperor, the most powerful person in the world, right?â
ââ¦?!â
âMaster Seo just rules and doesnât rule. Thatâs what a god would do or something.â
âHuh.â
âThe majority of people in the world still donât know his true appearance, but⦠sooner or later, everyone will find out. Behind the emperor who rules the world, there is a monster that no one can overcome.â
Namgunghwa frowned.
âBut you.â
âYes sister.â
âIt seems like you really have a crush on Teacher Seo.â
âOf course. Do you know? If I look good to the leader, he might give me a nice seat.â
Really, my younger brother has changed a lot too. The guy who didnât say things like that easily, even as a joke, now knows how to say things quite slyly.
Namgung-hwa was happy to see such changes in her younger brother. If a person becomes too strong, they will break at some point, so it is better to have a certain degree of flexibility.
âThere was a lot of unnecessary talk. Just go a little further and itâs Shingyo. Letâs hurry up and run.â
Paaaaang!
Namgunghwa unfolded the divine law.
Namgungryong was startled and hurriedly followed suit.
âLetâs go together, sister!â
The brother and sister, who quickly reached the outskirts of Hibmandaesan Mountain, soon witnessed an amazing sight.
âher?!â
Numerous workers were banging hammers here and there.
It was a major construction project spanning dozens of miles. It seemed like a huge wall was being built again in front of the old castle of the Heavenly Demon Church that towered in the distance.
Namgungryong stuck out his tongue.
âAre you trying to expand your territory?â
âRather than expanding, itâs about realizing Master Seoâs dream.â
âA dream?â
âI heard from my father. The leader of the Seo clan was greatly impressed when he saw the Iron Blood Castle. There are civilians living in the outer walls of the Iron Blood Castle, right? They are protected by the Iron Blood Castle.â
âOh, thatâs right.â
âIt looks like the leader liked that too. He wants to create a separate area where people can live. Of course, within the confines of the new religion.â
âIncredible.â
âIt will take at least ten years for the construction to be completed. In fact, the perimeter of the castle walls alone must be enormous. It seems that less than ten years will be enough to create a foundation and even build a building within it.â
âBut are the civilians who will live here randomly selected?â
âI donât know about that. And I heard that Mineâs family will live here first before the civilians?â
â100 million?!â
âMost of the demons belonging to the Protestant Church are scattered throughout Guangdong Province. They said they would bring them in first. They said they would not spare any support for housing and living expenses, so I guess they will welcome them with open arms.â
Namgungryong looked around the construction site with envious eyes.
âItâs different.â
âwhat?â
âPrincipal Seo. You have gone into a completely different realm. To put it somewhat vulgarly, the waters you play in are completely different.â
Namgung Hwa chuckled.
âBecause he has become the absolute best in the world and competes for supremacy in all times and times, except for the former religious leader. Even the former religious leader could not have the world at his feet like the former religious leader.â
âThatâs right.â
Namgungryong smiled. It was an expression filled with bitterness, admiration, joy, and passion.
âIt would be a blessing to be able to live in the same era as such a person.â
âIf you think so, you are truly amazing. Many people will probably be jealous of you, Master Seo.â
If you see the leader just once, you wonât even dare to be jealous.â
âThatâs right.â
âLetâs go.â
Paaaaaa!
The two of them climbed Mt. Hundred Thousand Mountains in an instant.
The Namgung siblings must have achieved outstanding achievements so far. His divine method was so fast that it could not even be compared to before. Even at that speed, his breathing was extremely stable. The
experience of his family being ravaged by enemies.
That humiliating experience actually helped the two reach a higher level. It became a stimulus to help. Is that why? Among the later political faction exponents of the time, there has not yet been a later exponent comparable to the two. The
world has changed like that. Time has passed like that.
A black beard begins to grow under the nose of an immature child, and a newly married woman begins to grow. One couple suddenly had a child running around the yard.
A force that had been praised by everyone disappeared without a trace, and a third-rate military officer who started out small suddenly grew into a martial arts sect that represented the region. A
world of repeated rise and fall. . The wind of change was blowing slowly but surely.
âThere you are, sister.â
âI know, too.â Understood
!
The two people took a powerful leap and stood at the main gate of the outer castle of the Heavenly Demon Church.
âWowâ¦.â
Namgung-ryong mouthed. I looked up at the castle with my mouth wide open.
It was truly an overwhelming appearance. Its grandeur was on a different level from other groups.
Namgunghwaâs face was also filled with admiration.
âItâs terrifying. Right?â
âYes. Itâs like looking at a small country.â
âIt seems like itâs even bigger than Iron Blood Castle.â
âThatâs right.â
The two people who were looking around the outer castle in a daze suddenly came to their senses and approached the gatekeeper.
Flash!
The gatekeeper. The eye light spewed fire.
Namgungryong flinched without even realizing it. The magical energy emanating from the Water Gate Guardâs eyes was truly sharp.
He realized it once again. The world is gradually becoming one.
Namgunghwa opened his mouth.
âWeâ¦â
âAre you descendants of the Namgung family?â
âHuh? Oh, thatâs right. How did you know?â
The gatekeeper did not answer her words.
âOpen the gate.â
Googoo googung!
The gate opened with a deafening roar.
The gatekeeper lowered his head.
âThe Lord of the Nangong family is waiting for you. Please come inside.â
Namgungryong, who was blinking in embarrassment, soon touched Namgunghwaâs side.
âAnswer me.â
Namgunghwa whetted his appetite.
âthank you.â
âIt was nothing.â
So the two people went inside.
The two wonât know. They would never know that the Heavenly Demon Church is not an organization that allows entry so easily. If an order had not been given from the highest level, it would have taken half a day just to pass through the outer castle.
Kugugoogung!
The gate closed with another heavy roar.
