Episode 118
The price of insult (6) Yeon Ho-jeong glanced down
at Mukbi .
“We should at least serve nice tea to people who have come a long way, but with our group like this, I can’t do that.”
Mo Yong-woo turned his gaze to Muk-bi.
Tsutsutsu.
A gray haze was rising from Mukbi’s body.
Mo Yong-woo’s eyes flashed.
‘Strong man!’
At first glance, he appears to be much younger than himself, but his inner strength is as great as that of the leader of the Daemun Sect.
Mo Yong-woo shook his head.
“He’s an amazing person.”
“The potential alone is enough to discuss the world.”
“Isn’t my current ability great enough without even talking about my potential?”
Yeon Ho-jeong shook his head.
“This is not even possible. Senior training period experience. “It’s all important, but it’s meaningless if you don’t get stronger.”
“It seems like such an extreme statement.”
“It doesn’t matter if it’s more extreme than this, as long as I can become stronger.”
Mo Yong-woo’s eyes deepened.
“To prepare for the future?”
Yeon Ho-jeong nodded.
“To prepare for the future.”
There was silence for a moment.
It was Yeon Ho-jeong who broke the silence.
“It’s a bit hard to stand, but let’s sit there.”
“It’s okay.”
“Then you say so.”
Yeon Ho-jeong sat down on the spot.
In Yeonhojeong’s appearance, Mo Yong-woo saw the illusion of a huge bird flying freely in the sky.
Mo Yong-woo cleared his throat.
“How old are you?”
Yeon Ho-jeong chuckled.
“Are we going to conduct a census?”
“I’m actually curious. “On the outside, it seems like it’s on the verge of the terms and conditions, but the words and actions don’t seem like it.”
“I am just as I look. “I was born ten years later than you.”
“Ten years…”
Mo Yong-woo sighed softly.
Ten years younger? That means that Yeonhojeong or Moyong Yeonhwa are of similar age.
Although they were the same age, the two were very different. Although one person had great talent, he and his father were making the family sick, and the other person was fighting the world with the spirit of a great general.
Mo Yong-woo smiled bitterly.
“I feel somewhat resentful.”
“what?”
“I don’t know what I did at your age.”
“What are you doing? “He must have gone through all sorts of hardships to withstand the cruel and merciless tyranny of his family.”
“…It really leaves me speechless.”
Mo Yong-woo flapped his long gun.
“That won’t work. “After all, it’s comfortable to sit.”
“I told you to sit like that.”
Mo Yong-woo sat down and looked at Yeon Ho-jeong.
Yeon Ho-jeong smiled as if it was fun.
“Is there something on my face?”
“I have one favor to ask of you.”
“say.”
“I think we will have many encounters in the future. “For better or for worse.”
Yeon Ho-jeong’s eyes lit up.
I felt it when I came to see him, but now I can be sure.
‘You’ve made a decision.’
Yes. Mo Yong-woo finally made up his mind.
The lightness and strong tension in his voice prove that he was confident. Still, I could see an unknown amount of composure, so I thought I had chosen the right person.
“however?”
“I said I would make a deal with you. “Do you remember?”
“I remember.”
“Okay deal. “But as you may have guessed, I can’t fully trust you yet.”
“That’s natural.”
“But with this help, I was able to learn a lot.”
He’s a fun guy.
I didn’t gain it, but I realized it. It was a remark worthy of Mo Yong-woo.
“You took control of the Trade Federation in one fell swoop. “But I don’t appreciate it.”

“….”
“What I am grateful to you for is that this incident made me hate myself for being indecisive in the past.”
Yeon Ho-jeong shook his head.
“You don’t have to think that much. Each person’s circumstances are different. You have fought an uphill battle in your situation. “No one would judge it for being indecisive.”
Mo Yong-woo shook his head.
“Thank you for saying that, but you shouldn’t have done that. “Even if it wasn’t for you, I should have opened my eyes sooner.”
“What’s important is the present. “When it’s time to regret, it’s better to focus on the present and do your best to take control of the future.”
“That is correct. “I’m just saying this to express my gratitude to you.”
Mo Yong-woo sat down and lowered his head.
“Thank you. sincerely.”
Yeon Ho-jeong, who was quietly looking at Mo Yong-woo, nodded.
“Please take that sincerity seriously.”
Mo Yong-woo smiled.
“That’s fascinating.”
“what?”
“It’s amazing that I’m in a situation where I’m grateful for the person who reached out to me first, not just holding hands with someone I’ve never met in a few conversations.”
“There are many strange things.”
“So let me do you a favor.”
“Shouldn’t we still say that?”
“I want to be more comfortable with you.”
Yeon Ho-jeong frowned.
“What does that mean? “Speak directly.”
Mo Yong-woo cleared his throat.
“That…”
“Huh?”
“…I’m saying this because I hope that when I first saw you, we would become closer, even if we weren’t like brothers and sisters. “I would like to organize the titles in some way.”
Yeon Ho-jeong scratched his head.
“What does that matter?”
“It’s important.”
“Wow.”
“Even though it’s my first time seeing you, at least I can be sure you didn’t trick me.”
“I enjoyed it.”
“And one more thing.”
Mo Yong-woo’s eyes lit up.
“You never betray my people. Rather, if one of their own gets hurt, they will feel pain as if they were hurt themselves.”
“Ah, that person is really making me cringe.”
“I’m just speaking from my intuition.”
“That’s a very strong intuition.”
“Whatever.”
Mo Yong-woo continued to clear his throat. Even thinking about it, he seemed a bit embarrassed.
“Can I just call you Yeon Little Brother for convenience?”
“Did you drag it out so long because you wanted to say that? “I told you to call me whatever you want.”
“….”
“I don’t care what you call me. As you said, we made a deal. I can help you, and you can help me in your own way. “That’s it.”
Those were quite cold words. It was also a statement that could be hurtful to some people.
But it didn’t seem to hurt Mo Yong-woo at all.
Instead, he smiles with joy.
“Please take care of me in the future, ow.”
Yeon Ho-jeong smiled bitterly and suddenly realized that he had clenched his fist.
…Did you try to hit me without realizing it?
Yeon Ho-jeong said, gently loosening his clenched fists.
“Now let’s get into something more constructive.”
“That’s right.”
“….”
“Why are you doing that?”
“no. “I feel like I can somehow understand that girl’s feelings.”
“huh?”
“You’re a quick-witted kid. “They say my way of speaking sounds like an old person.”
“What an interesting friend.”
well? I don’t know why that’s funny?
Yeon Ho-jeong’s expression became serious.
“So what happened? “Tell me how you dealt with it.”
Mo Yong-woo’s face also naturally became serious.
“That…”
Mo Yong-woo explained in detail what happened with Mo Yong-yeonhwa.
“That’s it.”
“….”
“Why are you doing that?”
Yeon Ho-jeong, who was looking at Mo Yong-woo blankly, asked in a depressed voice.
“So what you’re saying is that Mo Yong Yeon Hwa was half destroyed?”
“Huh! “Wow, your tone seems a bit harsh.”
“…you human.”
Yeon Ho-jeong pressed his temple as hard as he could.
“You made such a dangerous statement that you will just take care of it, that you will show it with the results, and that you can just say that and send it back?”
Mo Yong-woo shook his head with a cold face.
“That can’t be possible.”
“Why can’t you do that!”
“I don’t know what my younger brother expected from me, but I couldn’t hide my true feelings from Yeonhwa.”
“her!”
“The family gathers strength without your knowledge? Yes, that could happen. But even so, it’s just a tightrope walk. “If we keep doing things like that, we don’t know when we’ll be able to get our family back to normal.”
“….”
“I feel sorry for my younger brother. “Maybe it would be safer and faster to do as my brother said.”
Mo Yong-woo’s eyes lit up.
“But since I have decided, I don’t want to move in a lukewarm manner. “I have no intention of becoming a puppet that only does what my brother says.”
“…is it?”
“I think it might seem frustrating. “But isn’t this something that both my brother and I need to work on?”
“yes.”
“Let’s think together and make decisions together. “I believe that if you fanatically follow only one side’s opinion, it will definitely cause problems in the future.”
Mo Yong-woo sighed.
“Anyway… this incident has brought me shame.”
“no.”
Yeon Ho-jeong smiled.
At first glance, that sincere smile seemed to have a pleasant refreshing feel to it.
“I don’t want to live as a puppet…”
It was absurd at first, but the more I listened to Mo Yong-woo, the better I felt.
‘That’s right.’
It should be like this. You have to show this level of initiative and courage to make working together enjoyable.
People who are passively driven always do as much as they are told. However, people like Mo Yong-woo who work with independence find work on their own without having to be told.
The difference is much bigger than you might vaguely think.
“I thought you were just naive, but that wasn’t the case. Yes, that should be enough. “He is the person who will become the next Murim lord.”
Mo Yong-woo’s face hardened.
“Stop talking about that.”
“I’ll continue, so if you don’t want to hear it, cover your ears.”
It was a speech that left me speechless. Instead of covering his ears, Mo Yong-woo kept his mouth shut.
Yeon Ho-jeong crossed his arms.
“Anyway, work has become a bit busy. “If you had come out like that, Mr. Moyong wouldn’t have stayed still.”
“hmm?”
“Aren’t you going to relay the conversation that Mo Yong Yeon Hwa had with you? Moyong will never leave you alone. “Mo Yongga’s troops will enter Zhejiang within two months at the latest.”
“Don’t worry about that.”
“why? Moyong-kun, given his personality, he would never tolerate it, right?”
“The head of the family is not currently at home.”
“what?”
“Temporary Murim Alliance.”
Yeon Ho-jeong’s eyes sparkled.
Prince Moyong continued.
“Construction is coming to a halt due to the establishment of the Murim Alliance. “I have more time.”
“I see. But the result doesn’t change.”
“That is correct. So that’s it.”
Yeon Ho-jeong could not forget this moment.
Mo Yong-woo’s eyes were shining more brilliantly than ever.
His bright eyes were so bright that even Yeonhojeong, who was called the Lord of Darkness and had swept over the Black Island martial arts world, flinched for a moment, and it was like a sleeping dragon waiting for the moment of flight.
“I sent a letter to my brother before leaving here.”
“Correspondence?”
“That’s right.”
“which?”
“I will try to grow Zhejiang properly. “I said I would try to double my trading business by next year.”
Yeon Ho-jeong’s eyes widened.
“double…?”
“That’s right.”
“Are you actually thinking about doing that?”
“If I wasn’t going to do that, I wouldn’t have written it down and sent it.”
Yeon Ho-jeong’s face became serious.
‘Do you want to double your business?’
It’s a very generous letter, but the problem is that I don’t know how Prince Moyong will react.
Whatever the reason, Mo Yong Yeon Hwa will tell you all about the conversation that took place here.
Mo Yong-woo continued.
“Brother, you are a person who is well versed in science. If you send us a business plan, you will have enough time…”
“No, such a soft strategy won’t work.”
“hmm?”
Yeon Ho-jeong looked at Mo Yong-woo.
Mo Yong-woo flinched without realizing it.
“you.”
“You tell me.”
“Isn’t it okay to think that you risked your life when you decided to do business with me?”
“Of course.”
“Then, will you try walking properly this time?”
“Is there any special trick?”
Yeon Ho-jeong nodded.
Mo Yong-woo was surprised by Yeon Ho-jeong’s words immediately afterward.
“If we’ve been astray for more than ten years, shouldn’t we overthrow the crooked line now?”
“…?”
“Go under Moyong-gun.”
“…!!”
