Episode 168. Silmongdang (3)
A place about twenty blocks away from Xiliang’s residence.
Jehwan, who climbed on a giant tree, sharpened his eyesight.
‘Abode of the Three Princes… … .’
Jehwan’s eyes flashed.
‘To think that Princess Oh is in the residence of the Three Princes.’
He was quite surprised.
Oh Gongnyeo Joo Seo-yoon basically did not pay attention to others. She was a born warrior who risked her life only for being strong.
That’s why he is evaluated as lacking in social skills, but thanks to that, he was able to grow faster than anyone else. The person who would seek martial arts even to the moment of death, that was Joo Seo-yoon, Princess Oh.
Then she came to the residence of the Three Gongja.
‘It’s not serious.’
Had there been a single crack in that heart as hard as steel and as cold as the Arctic Ice Sea?
‘Could it be that the two of them even fell in love.’
Jehwan shook his head.
‘It can’t be.’
It can’t be. Her head thought so.
But somehow it felt awkward. If it wasn’t for a relationship, how could that indifferent Gongnyeo enter the residence of the Three Gongja?
‘Anyway, Confucius’ words to keep an eye on Lady Wu were right. Friendship or whatever, if the two of them join forces, there will be a big obstacle in the path of Confucius… … .’
It was then.
‘huh?’
Jehwan frowned.
One of the four people who were eating at the side of the gymnasium, a branch of a giant tree with a clear view of the Three Gongja’s residence, disappeared.
‘Where did you go?’
In an instant, Jehwan’s face hardened.
Did you miss the object’s movement because you were lost in thought for a moment? Are you looking at it from afar?
‘no way?’
Then, a low voice was heard.
“Don’t move.”
‘omg!’
Jehwan was surprised.
Suddenly, he felt a cold sword body close to his neck. The dark-colored sword body, as if it were painted with thick ink, was refined with dark demonic spirit and strange spirit.
“Who are you?”
“… … !”
“This is the residence of the Three Gongja. How dare you peek at Confucius?”
Jehwan swallowed lightly.
‘master!’
The presence radiating from behind gave me goosebumps. It was clear that he was one level above himself.
‘Damn it.’
You got caught.
I don’t know how I noticed it at this distance. His level of stealth was as good as that of the new law, so even the top students in the school did not notice his existence.
‘Now is not the time to think about that.’
Jehwan bit his lip.
‘It’s nothing special.’
Whoops.
A secret demonic energy rose from Jehwan’s body.
at the same time.
Whoa!
Dozens of thick twigs were smashed and scattered. At the same time, white smoke spread in all directions.
wickedness!
Je-hwan’s divine law to break through the smoke reached an astonishing level. It would not be an exaggeration to say that the divine law was that of a master of transcendence.
‘Things will get bigger.’
He escaped with a poison bullet in his arms. He wouldn’t die from a poison bullet like this, but the act itself was a threat. If this matter were to become a public debate in the school, it would be a headache in many ways.
‘Still, this is better. If Confucius’ name is mentioned… … .’
Quick!
Jehwan’s thoughts could not continue. He was hit on the forehead with a swordsman, and he was knocked over.
Ma Dong-pil appeared in front of him and was looking down at him with cool eyes.
Chow ah!
“omg!”
Surprised by the cool sensation that hit his body, Jehwan stood up.
‘Suck!’
Instinctively trying to raise his inner energy, he succumbed to the excruciating pain. It hurt as if the danjeon would tear.
‘Bo, sealed?!’
The short circuit has been sealed. Perfect too.
It was a famous technique that was hard to find in Madou Murim. If you try to forcefully raise your inner strength, the blood vessels around the Danjeon will be damaged.
“An interesting fellow.”
Jehwan looked up.
‘Suck!’
A young man with a sword over his shoulder that was too large to be called a sword sword was looking down at him.

The face of the young man with his back to the sun could not be seen well. However, the wide-open body and the sword the size of a human body exuded tremendous power.
Jehwan involuntarily swallowed his saliva.
Instinctively, I realized who the other person was, but I felt like my thoughts stopped at the presence that seemed out of this world.
“The power you have is reminiscent of a great tiger, but the power you can use is only that of a cat… … Besides, there is no yin qi, only yang qi. Even a Demonic Gong would not be able to move if his balance was broken like this.”
My mind went blank and I couldn’t hear it. It would be hard to understand even if you listened properly.
slip.
Xu Liang squatted down in front of Qi Huan.
“who are you?”
“… … .”
“Who are you?”
Jehwan did not open his mouth. I couldn’t open my mouth. His body just trembled at the tremendous presence of his opponent.
Swoop.
The ghastly black blade was again placed between his neck and collarbone.
“So that I can quickly answer Confucius’ question.”
Jehwan clenched and opened his fist repeatedly.
“I am… … .”
“Yes, you?”
A lie that doesn’t work anyway won’t work. The opponent is a rising master who stands out the most in the current Cheonma Shinkyo and a disciple of the religious leader. You will be able to find out enough to find out.
identity must be revealed. However, the reason why this place was monitored cannot be revealed.
“My name is Jehwan.”
“Jehwan?”
Seo Liang looked at Ma Dong Pil.
“know?”
Ma Dong-pil shook his head slightly.
Xu Liang turned his gaze to Ainghua.
“You don’t know either?”
“yes.”
Finally, his gaze turned to Joo Seo-yoon.
“Isn’t it you?”
Joo Seo-yoon also shook her head.
“Hey, if you just throw out your name when you’re not even famous, who will… … .”
“I will gladly accept the sin of daring to look into the residence of the Three Gongja. Please kill me.”
Seo Liang frowned.
“Well, depending on the situation, I’m thinking about that.”
Creepy!
Jehwan’s complexion turned pale at once.
Looking into the residence of the Three Gongja without permission is enough to be called a felony. Even more so, he fired a poison bullet and ran away, so he is a criminal that can’t be taken out or kicked out.
But I never thought I would be threatened with death in this way. He felt his crotch get wet when he actually heard the words that he was going to kill.
“Why did you come here?”
“I am… … .”
“okay.”
Je-hwan, who was trembling, turned his head and looked at Joo Seo-yoon.
Bloodshot eyes, the madness radiating from both eyes overwhelmed the viewer.
“Because I saw him go in here!”
Everyone’s eyes turned to Joo Seo-yoon.
A ray of embarrassment appeared on Ju Seo-yoon’s face, who had only been indifferent.
“Because the fifth entered my abode?”
“yes!”
“So, you mean you didn’t come to watch over me, but because of the fifth?”
“That’s right.”
“why?”
I feel like I want to close my eyes. I wanted to do this, but I couldn’t help it.
“I-I… … .”
“okay.”
“I want him… … .”
“Just in case, it would be better not to make excuses that you followed the fifth because you ardently admired it.”
In an instant, Jehwan’s eyes shook.
The corner of Seo Liang’s mouth went up. He didn’t miss the embarrassment that appeared on Jehwan’s face for a moment.
“I’m sure it wasn’t because of me. You seem to be serious when you say you came to see the fifth.”
“… … !”
“But I don’t see why you want to hide the ‘why’?”
Jehwan’s complexion turned black.
He won’t even know if he’s dead. How sharp is the eye of a person who has reached the extreme end.
Unless you have been professionally trained in speech, lies, and eloquence, or are at the level of a master of transcendence, it is close to impossible to escape from the demonic eyes of Xi Liang. Even more so if you belong to the devil.
“belong.”
“… … ?”
“Where do you belong? tell me about it You know, hiding your affiliation is meaningless. If you do a little research, everything will come out.”
Tsutsutsu.
Xu Liang’s pupils turned red like blood.
“Where do you belong? Who sent you along with the Fifth?”
Seo-ryang glanced at Joo Seo-yoon as he watched Je-hwan run away quickly.
Joo Seo-yoon’s face was still expressionless. This time, she couldn’t even tell what she was thinking.
“Are you popular?”
“… … .”
“It seems that the person who loves you passionately is not Jeochi, but the one he serves?”
back.
Inside the puffy sleeves, Ju Seo-yoon’s fists were tightly clenched.
Seo Liang smiled.
“He also has a very difficult life.”
It is unknown whether Kwan-pyeong actually likes Joo Seo-yoon. In fact, given her status as a disciple of her religious leader, it is more credible that she sent her subordinates to spy on her rather than liking her master Seoyoon.
Joo Seo-yoon shook her head.
“It doesn’t matter.”
“It’s a related issue.”
“… … .”
“If someone throws a knife at you to kill you, are you going to calmly take the knife, saying it doesn’t matter?”
“… … .”
“A one-sided relationship is also a relationship. Even if it’s an unexpected relationship that came out of nowhere, if you got involved, it’s your problem from then on.”
Confusion settled on Ju Seo-yoon’s face.
Seo Liang smiled.
“Can you lend a hand?”
“… … yes?”
“Even if you are not interested in the presidency, I am very interested in the presidency. You have to collide with Kwan Pyeong at any time. Like that idiot, Hong, I stayed still because I didn’t touch you first, but if I was moving from behind like this, it’s a bit awkward for me to stay still, right?”
There was a chill in Joo Seo-yoon’s eyes.
“As my brother said, even if it has something to do with it, this is my problem. It has nothing to do with your brother, right?”
“right.”
“I solve my problems.”
“Of course, you have to solve your problems. I just said I would lend a hand, not to help you. It’s for me.”
“… … Is it to eliminate future competitors?”
“It’s an opportunity to reduce one worry.”
“why… … .”
Joo Seo-yoon’s eyes flashed.
“How did my brother get to the extreme?”
“Is that question again?”
“I don’t hesitate to touch things outside of martial arts, so I don’t know how it got to that level.”
Seo Liang smiled.
Joo Seo-yoon turned around at the unanswered laugh.
“I’ll come back later.”
“the way you want.”
Just like that, Joo Seo-yoon disappeared.
Xi Liang looked up at the sky. It was just after noon, and the sky was very clear.
“How many days left?”
Ma Dong-pil replied.
“There are three days left until the day Confucius said he would be expelled.”
“Three days… … Relaxed.”
He turned his head around and cleared his throat.
“Before I rescue the princess, I will draw a few pictures on the sly human face and go.”
* * *
“… … .”
“… … Please kill me.”
Guan Pyeong’s eyes looking down at Je Hwan were colder than ever.
But that’s for a while.
“Good luck.”
“yes?”
“Didn’t you come back without being harmed? That was enough.”
Jehwan gritted it. He is the master who gives relief even when a subordinate who has failed in his mission returns. It was thrilling, but more than that, the sense of shame was greater.
“You don’t have to worry too much. Whether you deny it or admit it, you are mine. It’s not like you swung a knife, so it shouldn’t be a big deal.”
“… … We will do our best to ensure that this does not happen again.”
“I believe in you.”
Gwanpyeong sent Jehwan to rest.
He murmured as he poured tea into his cup.
“Are you doing your best? It should have been right away.”
Opportunity once passed never comes again.
“It’s time to catch up and eat it.”
I thought I had found a guy who was quite good at work, but after three years, I proved my incompetence.
Outward incompetence is bound to make two or three mistakes. He didn’t like to make mistakes.
“Still, this time it’s been quite a long time. It was worth using, but it’s a pity.”
Gwan-pyeong buried his back in a chair.
A subtle heat rose in his eyes.
“Third and fifth… … Is it even me?”
For a moment, I felt something stir in the depths of my chest.
He remembered Joo Seo-yoon’s face.
An expressionless face with pure white skin. Her expression of her peerless beauty seemed to have been made just for her.
“Fun.”
Imagining that beautiful face distorted with fear makes me thrilled.
It was when he was thinking of Joo Seo-yoon for a long time.
A servant’s embarrassed voice came from outside the door.
“Confucius.”
“What’s going on?”
“The Three Gongja have come.”
In an instant, Guan Ping’s face hardened.
“The third one?”
“That’s right.”
“… … hmm.”
he got up from his seat
“Wait for half an hour, tell me.”
“Bah, are you saying half-sijin?”
“okay.”
A white smile appeared on the cold face of Gwanpyeong.
“Half-sight is enough.”
