Episode 167. Silmongdang (2)
“hmm?”
After training all night, Gwanpyeong came out to get some fresh air and saw a woman heading somewhere.
The beauty of the border color, but the expressionless face showed a coldness more than that of Kwanpyeong. His unwavering gait and the subtle spread of demonic energy are as sharp as a blade.
“Seo Yoon-ah.”
Joo Seo-yoon looked back at Gwanpyeong.
Guanping approached with leisurely steps.
“It’s been a while since we met.”
“yes.”
The Cheonma Shinkyo is so vast that it is not easy to encounter even the disciples of the cult leader unless they make up their minds and try to meet each other. In fact, among the demons who had been practicing Protestantism for over ten years, there were times when they couldn’t even get to know each other.
“Is this the first time since the Great Hall Meeting?”
“yes.”
“How are you?”
“yes.”
It is still a short answer. Guanping smiled. It was a smile that did not match the unique cold atmosphere.
“The wave is amazing. She has grown amazingly again.”
“thank you.”
“Haha, go slow. Soon I will catch up.”
Joo Seo-yoon glanced at Gwanpyeong.
Indifferent eyes that match an expressionless face.
“Your brother also trained hard.”
“oh? Do you see that?”
It was a view that transcended human limitations in the great realization obtained immediately after the grand meeting. It was only that the martial arts he had learned were hidden and not revealed, and he was also the owner of excellent military power that was not suitable for his age.
“but… … .”
“hmm?”
“no.”
The smile disappeared from Guanping’s face.
Ju Seo-yoon’s face with her head turned is so expressionless that it’s not easy to read. However, he could read a hint of disappointment from Joo Seo-yoon.
Soon, at the age of 30, he was the one who had built up a military force comparable to that of the head of a huge clan. There is no doubt that it was a force that would arouse admiration in someone, but it seemed to be lacking to Ju Seo-yoon.
‘hmm.’
Gwanpyeong asked.
“By the way, where are you going from early morning?”
Joo Seo-yoon stopped walking.
After a moment of silence, she opened her mouth slowly.
“Brother.”
“Tell me.”
“I have no regrets about the presidency.”
“… … !”
It was an unexpected bombshell declaration. Guanping’s eyes shook.
“So you don’t have to worry about me.”
“I just… … .”
“then.”
Joo Seo-yoon lowered her head and went on her way again.
Guan Ping’s face hardened slightly as he looked at her back.
‘Is there no lingering attachment to the presidency?’
Until now, we have not had any conversations with each other. I wanted to have a few words of conversation now, but I couldn’t help but be surprised by the sudden words.
Gwan-pyeong stood there for a long time and watched Ju Seo-yoon walking away.
After a while, Jehwan appeared.
“Gongja. What you said before… … .”
“… … .”
“Gongja?”
“Um, are you here?”
“Yes.”
Jehwan turned his gaze to where Gwanpyeong was looking.
“Where are you looking at?”
“Jehwan.”
“Yes, Gongja.”
“Let Seoyoon be watched.”
“Oh, are you talking about Princess Oh?”
“okay. He’s a sensitive kid, so keep an eye on him from a distance.”
“Why is Gongnyeo suddenly… … ?”
“It’s just a whim.”
Guan Ping’s eyes grew cold.
“I wish I had no more whims. That’s why I want you to keep an eye on it.”
* * *
“Confucius.”
Ma Dong-pil showed a troubled expression.
“Oh Gongnyeo… … .”

“know.”
Seo Liang shrugged his shoulders. It is to warm up his body before training.
“Just let it in.”
“All right.”
After a while, Seo-ryang left the room and looked at Ju Seo-yoon standing on the side of the gymnasium.
Joo Seo-yoon slightly lowered her head. Xu Liang responded with a shrug of his shoulder.
“did you eat?”
“yes.”
The conversation was all there was. Xu Liang, who nodded, climbed into the gymnasium and warmed up his body.
Joo Seo-yoon watched his movements.
The tall, elongated limbs and well-knit body of Seo Ryang, with well-trained muscles, deserved to be called a work of art. Dozens of scars ran across his upper body, but they didn’t look ugly.
thud.
Xu Liang took a strong step forward and lowered his stance.
A serious face, a closed fist. The eyes that were staring at the front suddenly calmed down.
Joo Seo-yoon’s eyes twinkled.
‘Is it the beginning of training?’
He doesn’t care about showing his training to others. At least in that part, he has something in common with himself.
Seruk.
Xu Liang stretched out his fist.
One punch, one step carefully. But the action was very slow. To the point where I wondered if I was training for a dungeon.
‘Am I correcting my posture?’
Squeak.
Slowly, more and more slowly.
It’s a slow motion, but it has the magical power of seeing it blankly. The speed was constant and the power in the muscles was the same. There were many loopholes in the posture itself, but there was no wastage of strength.
It was like watching the smooth dance moves of dancers.
‘It’s a rule of thumb. There are few changes, but the RBI is sophisticated. It’s a method of force.’
Surprisingly, Ju Seo-yoon was able to instantly see through Seo-ryang’s propensity for martial arts just by watching Seo-ryang’s smooth movements from the side. It meant that she had a different eye.
how much time has passed like that
Took. Fighting.
Sweat dripped from his body onto the floor.
I sweat even though I’m using the proper internal energy. It is a very difficult and high-level training in terms of power distribution, but it is difficult to understand why a master who has reached the peak sweats so much.
Joo Seo-yoon was inwardly curious.
‘It’s difficult, but it’s not a training that’s going to be that hard. But why… … ?’
For a moment she was startled.
‘Walking?!’
Yes. The training that Xi Liang focused on was not martial arts but foot techniques.
I didn’t notice because the level of martial arts I used was so high, but when I realized it again, I realized that I was forming a step of great difficulty.
‘I can’t believe there was a step like that.’
Even with the eyes of a genius, it is impossible to know which direction to take. I couldn’t read a single thing about the ratio of the attack and defense, and what kind of gaps were penetrated.
‘but… … .’
Muhak itself is amazing, but questions still remain.
‘I’m showing a high level of footwork and martial arts, but it’s still hard to do that… … .’
Joo Seo-yoon is full of deep doubts.
Soon, the training of Xiliang was over.
“It’s still hard. I have to stop.”
Joo Seo-yoon looked up at the sky. The sun was moving, but even so, it was less than half an hour.
‘already? You said you finished your training so quickly?’
It’s not a face that looks like it’s about to explode, and it’s not like he’s exhausted all his strength. Even so, it’s hard to stop.
‘Are you satisfied with that level of training?’
If you are a top-notch master, you know how to practice unimaginable to others. I was so exhausted that I couldn’t even lift a finger, so I thought I would be unable to move for a while.
but not It seems quite tired, but it is a level where you can quickly recover your stamina even without luck.
‘How the hell… … ?’
Confusion appeared on Joo Seo-yoon’s face. How can I be satisfied with such easy training? How could he have become a master?
“It’s Aenghwa.”
“Yes, Gongja.”
Aenghwa, who had been standing far away and scrubbing, came running.
“Shall we eat?”
“yes!”
Seo-ryang glanced at Ju Seo-yoon.
“Would you like to have a meal too?”
“… … .”
“Aenghwa, take care of one more serving.”
Thus, a seat was spread out on one side of the gymnasium.
Seo Liang took up his spoon.
“Let’s eat.”
Ma Dong-pil and Aeng-hwa scooped up the rice.
Joo Seo-yoon, who was sitting awkwardly, looked at Seo-ryang. Xi Liang was almost ready to sweep the entire table.
Seo Liang, who had been eating for a while, said.
“Dongpil.”
“Yes, Gongja.”
“Have you been playing for a while?”
“It is an honor.”
“good.”
After a brief conversation, the hissing sound again occupied the table.
Xu Liang opened his mouth again after emptying three plates.
“It’s Aenghwa.”
“Yes, Gongja.”
“There is no need to leave boiled meat here and there. But Kumho isn’t coming.”
Aenghwa’s face became tearful.
Seo Liang smiled.
“do not worry. He must be playing fresh somewhere.”
“yes.”
“So I picked it all up and ate it, meat.”
“ah… … .”
“It’s still humid and hot, but if you leave it there and it goes bad, it’s a waste of food.”
“I was short-tempered. I have committed a mortal sin.”
“If that was a mortal sin, I would have died 10,000 times more… … .”
Joo Seo-yoon, who was quietly listening to the conversation, was surprised inside.
‘There are no walls.’
The third brother was treating the escort warrior and the maid like a friend. It was more surprising that it was not a forced atmosphere, but a naturally formed one.
“so.”
Surprised, Ju Seo-yoon looked at Seo-ryang.
Xu Liang was watching the meat dish in front of her with greedy eyes.
“Are you going to eat or not?”
“jeon… … .”
“If you’re not going to eat, give it to me.”
Joo Seo-yoon handed over the plate. Xu Liang greedily emptied the plate.
“Hey, did you get anything?”
Everyone looked at Seo Liang.
Seo Liang looked at Ju Seo-yoon.
“You say you watch and learn? Have you got anything?”
“Not yet.”
“Of course it is.”
Joo Seo-yoon’s eyes shook. Of course, what does this mean?
“Enlightenment is valuable only when it is acquired by oneself. But there is nothing more precious than killing time, so I will tell you, and it will be the same in the future.”
“Are they the same?”
Seo Liang, who had emptied all the plates before he knew it, patted his stomach. It was a tired-looking face.
“It’s not because of the gap between you and me. It’s hard for you now to know your problem no matter who else practices.”
“Why?”
“Why, why, it’s because I’m obsessed.”
“If you mean obsession with martial arts… … .”
“no. The belief that your way will grow you the fastest, and the obsession with that belief.”
“… … !”
“I won’t tell you to let go of your obsession, but you have to admit that your obsession isn’t the right way for everyone.”
Joo Seo-yoon chewed over Seo-ryang’s words.
‘Obsession? I’m obsessed with my ways?’
It can’t be. She is definitely training harder than anyone else, but at the same time, she also knew how to rest for sure when she was resting. Including that break, she has nothing to say if she were to practice.
“Aren’t human relationships the same? Relationships develop only when you understand each other. It’s like invincibility. Countless warriors have their own way. If you don’t acknowledge the way and struggle with it, you’ll always just stay where you are.”
Seo Liang scratched his head.
“Well, I don’t have to tell you anything. How many do you think there are in the world who have built the same level as you at your age now? I bet it won’t go past five.”
“I am not satisfied.”
“If you’re not satisfied, broaden your horizons.”
What the hell does it mean to broaden your horizons, to have a hardened head? I have a sufficiently flexible mindset when it comes to nothingness. What is so different about this person and me?
“Huh, now that I’m full, I feel like I’m going to live. It gives me strength.”
Xu Liang twirled her arms around and smiled.
“I tell you in advance, but they won’t look at you.”
Ma Dong-pil smiled at him.
“I can’t help but wish for it.”
“Are you crazy about your confidence? Alright, make my eyes blue today… … .”
For a moment, Xi Liang frowned.
It was the same with Ma Dong-pil. His eyes grew cold.
The completely changed atmosphere, Ju Seo-yoon was puzzled.
‘why… … ?’
“Dongpil.”
“Yes, Gongja.”
“Get it.”
Grasp!
Ma Dong-pil moved like lightning.
