Episode 87. grow up (2)
The majesty of Lee Cheon-sang sitting in the pavilion and drinking languorously remained the same.
The yongpo roughly wrapped around the shoulders, the top worn loosely so that part of the front was exposed, and even the indifferent expression.
Crucially, this indescribably overwhelming presence is still unfamiliar to me.
‘also.’
Xu Liang’s eyes deepened as he looked up at him from under the pavilion.
‘I suddenly realize. What a ruthless monster this human is.’
As you raise martial arts to the current level, it touches your skin even more.
Even if you don’t consciously emit a qi wave, any master will inevitably emit a sharp prayer.
It was for that reason that I felt intimidated when I faced Gosu.
The amount was different.
He was originally an assassin who was good at hiding his prayers, and he had no desire to show off his power to anyone.
The dream he had hoped for all his life represents his inclination and, furthermore, emerges from his prayers.
What about Lee Cheon-sang?
‘This man has gone beyond even that. He’s a strong man playing in a completely different dimension.’
If you put your mind to it, you will be able to reduce your presence to the level of air, and conversely, you will be able to emit a feeling of pressure as if the whole sky is collapsing.
Now, Lee Cheon-sang’s calm presence speaks for his personality.
The indifferent transparency, the strength that will not be shaken by natural disasters, the languor and loneliness of not being interested in anything because everything has been achieved.
All of them were combined to complete the one and only absolute.
“Are you here?”
“… … yes.”
“Come up.”
Xu Liang climbed the stairs of the pavilion.
Lee Cheon-sang, who was working as a self-made man, suddenly walked up the stairs and looked at Seo-ryang.
Flash!
The twinkling eyes that no one knows.
But even for a moment, his eyes quickly calmed down.
Xi Liang bowed his head when he reached the front of the Seven Steps of the Heavenly King.
“Meet the headmaster.”
“Sit down.”
The air seems to resonate with the heavy voice.
Xi Liang sat down with an expressionless face.
“… … .”
suffocating silence.
He kept his expressionless face, but Xu Liang’s words were not fooled.
‘Damn it… … .’
A thick tendon sprouted from his chin. Even in the midst of this, I did not sharpen my teeth so that I could not hear them in the ears of Lee Cheon-sang.
‘Why did you call me? why did you call Why did he call me?’
I thought a lot about coming here.
‘Yes, it’s time to call. uh? But why did you bother calling me this morning? Doesn’t this guy even sleep? ah! Now that I’m old enough, I can’t sleep at dawn.’
from such a light thought.
‘It’s time to call, but is it now?
uh? for a moment? No matter how much the commander-in-chief has authority, there is no way the religious leader would not know that the Cheonma Byeongchang was opened, right? Could it be that you’re trying to catch a book with it?’
Past these worrying speculations.
‘f*ck… … Didn’t it really get caught?!’
… … to an extremely serious concern.
Lee Chun-sang was a very tired person in terms of causing anxiety to people every moment.
He was a man of few words, so the conversation was not long, and he had no idea what he was thinking.
He was truly a person like the crystallization of tiredness, this nobleman.
So when Xi Liang was spreading all kinds of imagination in his mind.
Seruk.
An empty glass came to the table of Xi Liang.
“Get me a drink.”
Ah yes.
I don’t know if I really knew that I was drinking or sipping since morning. I wondered if I could do this no matter how good I was.
Seo Liang politely raised his glass.
Lee Cheon-sang poured a drink into his glass and said.
“You must have trained hard.”
“yes? Oh, yes.”
“You treated the fourth pretty harshly?”
In an instant, my heart sank.
‘Turn it off.’
Certainly, this man has something beyond imagination. It felt like getting hit in the back of the head to bring up the story of Hongwimun out of the blue.
I was worried about arrogance all the way here, but I couldn’t think of that son of a bitch.
“Yeah, what… … It happened.”
Lee Cheon-sang nodded.
“Have a drink.
The two drank at the same time.

It is a very classy and delicious drink. It was a drink I had had several times before.
… … The scent that was nice back then feels like the scent of death today.
“Would you like another drink?”
Ohhh?
Seo Liang narrowed his eyes. I was embarrassed because it was not the reaction Lee Chun-sang had shown so far.
“Joe, that’s good.”
Squeeze.
The cup is filled once again.
Lee Cheon-sang opened his mouth again.
“The fourth Demon King is a newly transformed Demonic Gong based on the martial arts of the Red Saga.”
“… … .”
“He was a stubborn guy of his own. He was good too. He thought of making a new martial art at such a young age, he can’t do anything.”
I think my tongue is about to pop out.
“At first it was subpar. But it gradually developed. After just three years, a pretty outstanding magician came out.”
Man, you talk a lot today.
But I don’t know what to say. Does that mean that you have to take a look at the shattering of the fourth, which was so precious?
“But it ended there.”
“… … yes?”
“A strategy without power may be called ingenuity, but it is difficult to be evaluated as complete. He had great talent, but he was rotting it.”
Lee Cheon-sang, who had even filled his own glass, emptied it.
“He who does not know his talent is foolish. I despise fools.”
“… … .”
“But people who know what their talents are and yet settle down don’t treat them like people.”
“… … .”
“So I was disappointed with the fourth. He shouldn’t have lived that way.”
Xi Liang’s eyes deepened.
Lee Cheon-sang did not deserve to be called a good teacher even with empty words. His own ability is excellent, but the way he teaches his disciples is the worst.
But he is a god. You don’t have to be someone’s teacher, and you’re not in a position to be one.
‘That’s why it’s even more amazing.’
It doesn’t look at anyone’s notice, and doesn’t take orders from anyone.
I am only advising myself.
“The fourth one fell into your hands.”
“… … .”
“It was unexpected.”
What else does this mean?
“I knew the fourth ambition. I knew he would never win the presidency. However, I did not expect that I would be eliminated from the succession battle so quickly.”
Lee Cheon-sang’s eyes flashed.
Seeing those eyes, Xu Liang felt his hair soften.
“Whoever I despise is foolish. On the other hand, do you know what kind of person I admire?”
“… … I don’t know.”
“He is beyond my expectations.”
Xu Liang, who had been quietly looking at the statue of Heaven, emptied his glass.
Then Lee Cheon-sang refilled his cup. He didn’t even ask if he would like another drink.
“You exceeded my expectations. It’s been a while.”
“… … !”
“So, I adore you.”
Goosebumps ran down his spine and spread to his limbs.
The feeling of admiration for someone is not something that can be easily embraced. However, such a great person was saying that he adored him.
I don’t know if Lee Cheon-sang’s words are sincere or not. However, it was surprising that such words came out of the mouth of this absolute being.
back.
I could feel the sweat on my clenched fists. She tried to contain it, but she couldn’t contain the turmoil rising from the depths of her heart.
‘The first demon in the world loves me?’
It is a life that has been raised as a secret weapon of the Uicheon League and has lived as a dog of the leader. Having lived a life that was not enough even to say that he was pathetic, he received this kind of evaluation from the head of the Heavenly Demon Church.
‘… … shit.’
The joy of turbulence.
The emotion that came behind that pride was self-loathing.
‘Throw it away. You can’t have these feelings in just a few words. Then… … .’
I was afraid that I would be far from the freedom I dreamed of all my life. I thought that if I truly dreamed of freedom, I shouldn’t feel proud of the leader’s praise.
In the end, did I just blindly run after deceiving myself after deciding on a plausible but illusory dream?
Squeak.
deep sunken eyes. The wavering prayer quickly subsided.
Seo Liang let out a sigh.
‘What kind of ridiculous self-torture is that? A giant like this is acknowledging me, right? Of course, it’s normal to be proud.’
It is an emotion that anyone can have.
Emotions come and go naturally. There is no need to self-tort or fret about feeling any emotions.
because? After all, even those emotions are all part of who I am.
“Whoa.”
He lowered his head and looked at the statue again.
Lee Cheon-sang’s eyes shone. He noticed subtle changes in the amount of rice.
“Look. You exceeded my expectations even at this moment.”
“… … .”
“Every moment changes and grows. That is why you are great.”
Xu Liang, who was quietly looking at Li Chun, smiled.
It’s not a smile to show in front of the world’s two heavenly statues. Still, he laughed so hard.
Why? I thought I could laugh like this.
And it seemed like it would be okay to say this.
“It really doesn’t suit you when the headmaster says that.”
“… … .”
“I’m just a freak, I am.”
Lee Cheon-sang, who had been silently looking at him, raised the bottle again.
When Xi Liang emptied his glass, he poured another drink.
“Last night, the military commander came.”
“… … .”
“They say they opened the Heavenly Horse Armory.”
“… … .”
“Did the weapons you brought fit your hand?”
“yes. Did you catch a cold?”
Lee Cheon-sang nodded.
“Chil-ya is ferocious and Meteor is sharp. You have good eyesight.”
“If I didn’t like it, I wouldn’t have taken it with me.”
“All weapons are like that. He would have been rather disappointed if he had taken something that did not fit in his hand as a relic of his ancestors.”
You find common ground in unexpected corners.
Lee Cheon-sang, who emptied his cup again, turned his head and looked at the pond.
The pond was not very fancy, but when he looked at it, even the plain pond looked dazzlingly beautiful.
“The knives you liked, you’ve never felt comfortable wielding.”
“that… … Is that right?”
Squeak.
Lee Cheon-sang rose from his seat. Seo Liang also stood up following the eonggeojuchum.
“Come down.”
After a while, the two stood in a clearing.
Lee Cheon-sang stretched out his right hand toward somewhere.
Phew!
Suddenly, the sound of string breaking was heard, and at the same time, four swords were thrust into the ground in front of Xiliang.
‘… … !!’
Truly, a void submerged creature that has reached a divine skill. Xu Liang had no choice but to open his mouth wide at this tremendous move.
‘I didn’t feel the wave of inner strength? Didn’t someone throw it?’
Could it be that you brought the weapons you put at the entrance with your own will? really?
‘What the hell is this human… … .’
Lee Cheon-sang’s martial arts that he has never seen before.
It was only one move, but I felt the mind-bending gap. It was so overwhelming that it was meaningless to discuss the high and low of martial arts.
Cheonsang Lee said.
“It is a reward given to an unexpected disciple.”
“… … yes?”
“Choose the one you like.”
“… … !”
Lee Cheon-sang held out his hand.
An ambiguous hand gesture, as if to hand something over or to offer it.
“I will give you a lesson.”
grasp!
Xu Liang, holding one of the four swords, swung it like lightning.
