Episode 154
Infamy and Myeongmyeong (4)
Surprisingly, Cheokgang was the first to react.
“omg! Sasuk!”
Cheokgang stepped forward in a gasp and folded his waist in half.
“Greetings to my disciple, Cheok Gang.”
Paeyul, a middle-aged man, ignored Cheok Gang’s greeting.
Yeon Ho-jeong’s eyes sparkled.
‘If it’s Cheokgang’s private residence, what is Jeomchang?’
Cheomsangpa.
It is a sect based in Jeomchang Mountain, Yunnam, and initially arose as a Taoist sect, but after entering the martial arts world, it gradually took on a secular atmosphere.
Until recently, it was also the school with the strongest secularist color among the old school schools. In fact, their martial arts skills were so practical that they competed for supremacy among the martial arts schools of the old school along with the communal school.
In fact, if you look at Cheok Gang’s martial arts skills, they were fast and straight, unlike other soldiers. Even in the same situation, a more drastic method is used to defeat the opponent.
Also, the mountain people of the Jeomchang sect all resemble the martial arts they learned.
It was fast, intuitive, and there were no delays.
“I am Yeonhojeong.”
Paeyul frowned.
“I am the elder of Jeomchang. “Try to be more polite.”
Yeon Ho-jeong smiled.
“If it’s in the maengnae, it will be like that.”
“what?”
“I am the leader of the Yu military unit under the Murim Alliance. “Whether you are an elder of the Jeomchang Sect or a Jangmunin, there is no reason to stoop down if you do not have a position.”
What he says is quite cocky, but his expression is full of composure. There was no pitch in his voice, and his eyes were clear and deep.
Paeyul, who was looking at Yeonhojeong, looked at Cheokgang.
A subtle look of anxiety appeared on Cheok Gang’s face. It was because he wanted to see if there would be a war of nerves between the adult monk and the head of the organization he worked for.
Paeyul nodded.
“It’s okay.”
It was an unexpected reaction.
Yeon Ho-jeong tilted his head.
“What do you mean?”
“I heard that this was the unit that my favorite b*stard entered without saying anything, so I wondered what was so loose. It’s not bad at all. “If you are the head of an organization, you must have that level of authority.”
He says this in such a blunt tone that I can’t tell if he’s complimenting or being sarcastic.
Yeon Ho-jeong looked at Cheok Gang.
“Did you come without even telling me?”
“…yes.”
“I’m going to get scolded.”
A shadow appeared on Cheok Gang’s face.
Yeon Ho-jeong turned his gaze back to Pae-yul.
“If you want to take Cheokgang, just wait a moment. After returning to Naejeong and going through the repatriation process….”
“My business is with you, not my business.”
“To me?”
“Yes.”
Yeon Ho-jeong’s eyes deepened.
It seemed like he knew why Paeyul had come to see him. I got a feeling.
But there was something puzzling.
‘How do you know?’
If his father had told him, there would be no reason to look for him, and if Mo Yong-gun leaked it, he would have no reason to look for himself either. Because it is common sense to go to your father first.
Why? what?
“Do you know about the martial arts that shoot the sun?”
It was as expected.
Yeon Ho-jeong had no intention of saying anything.
“Is it because of the dream?”
“…!”
Paeyul’s eyes suddenly changed.
“There is no need to say that name.”
“I understand.”
“I have only one question.”
“….” “
How was that sword?”
Yeon Ho-jeong shook his head.
“I don’t know what your intention is for asking such a question, but I haven’t had a good look at his sword.”
“why? “I heard you had a life-or-death relationship with that guy.”
“In a fight to the death, the priority is to prevent the opponent from demonstrating his or her power. “I saw ‘that martial arts’ being used, but I didn’t see it properly.”
“You subdued him before that?”
“exactly.”
“…That’s amazing.”
Yeon Ho-jeong smiled and patted Muk-bi on the shoulder.
“I fell to this friend’s arrow before I could use martial arts properly. “If it weren’t for this friend, it would have been quite difficult.”

Paeyul looked at Mukbi.
‘master?’
Yeon Ho-jeong’s prayer was so refined that I didn’t pay much attention to it, but looking at it this way, I realized that the woman’s prayer was also amazing.
“Joined operations?”
“exactly.”
Paeyul nodded.
“I see.”
The corners of Yeon Ho-jeong’s mouth rose slightly.
People from prestigious political factions were generally negative about joint ventures. This is because they prefer fair one-on-one competition, regardless of whether the opponent is a target or a villain.
But it wasn’t a loss rate. To be exact, the Jeomchang school did not teach that way.
In actual combat, the truth is to survive without dying. If a battle breaks out, it is best to not only kill your opponent but also seek your own survival.
Paeyul was a person who truly knew the joy of actual fighting. That is why they do not express any objection to the fact that they have joined forces.
Paeyul, who was quietly looking around at the Mortal Army, shook his head.
“I was anxious so I came out first and waited. “I really wanted to check on him.”
“….”
“I’ll come back to your place tomorrow.”
Yeon Ho-jeong laughed bitterly.
“If possible, please come in the evening.”
Paeyul turned around without answering.
It is a disposition that straddles the line between honesty and rudeness. Perhaps Jininba’s martial arts skills will also be much rougher than Cheokgang’s.
Paeyul, who was walking ahead, stopped and looked back.
“you.”
“Please speak.”
Paeyul tilted his head.
“Are you in any pain?”
Yeon Ho-jeong’s eyes lit up.
“Are you healthy?”
“…okay?”
At that time, Yeon Ho-jeong could see Pae-yul’s eyes scanning the right side of his abdomen.
Paeyul nodded.
“We’ll see tomorrow.”
“I understand.”
Coogugung.
The Blue Dragon Gate was opened.
Paeyul entered Maeng first, followed by the Mortal Army.
Yeon Ho-jeong recalled Pae-yul’s words and could not hide his inner wonder.
‘Did you see something in me?’
Out of curiosity, I looked inside and looked at Byeoknajingyeol and Samsingi, but there were no problems.
‘hmm.’
But there was no way a master with a losing record would say something like that for no reason.
‘Well, I’ll just have to rest for a while and get my body back on track.’
Yeon Ho-jeong shouted as he entered the inner building after passing the long and wide outer castle.
“I will take care of the return process myself. I’ve had a hard time. “Get some rest.”
At Yeon Ho-jeong’s words, thunderous cheers erupted.
“Aaaah!”
“Vacation, vacation!”
“Oh, I feel like I’m going to collapse already.”
There was a lot of noise. After saying hello to Yeon Ho-jeong, they each disappeared at an incredible speed.
“….”
Yeon Ho-jeong, who had been blinking like an idiot, looked at Mukbi.
“Let’s go through the repatriation process together…”
“I’m going to see my father.”
Mukbi disappeared before my eyes in an instant with that wonderful divine method.
The inside of my mouth was grumbling. For some reason, I felt betrayed.
Yeon Ho-jeong looked at Pang Man-ho.
Pang Man-ho laughed awkwardly.
“Do you know why the person in charge is called the person in charge?”
“You said you were my brother?”
“Try hard, brother.”
“Just talk hyung… I wonder if that b*stard was that fast.”
Yeon Ho-jeong, who had been following Pang Man-ho’s back as he ran like lightning, ate up his appetite.
“You b*stards who have no sense of loyalty.”
Yeon Ho-jeong, who was complaining, suddenly looked at Jegal Zhen-yeon.
Zhuge Yan tilted his head.
“why?”
“Why don’t you move on like a colt with a tail on fire?”
“Where are you going? “You have to go through the return process.”
“huh?”
“Even if I look like this, I am still a soldier of the army of death. “You have to make sure you get the ending right.”
“…Have you seen such a cool guy!”
Yeon Ho-jeong put his arm around Jegal A-yeon’s shoulder.
“let’s go! “Let’s leave the foolish brats behind and head towards the sky!”
“hey! Let go of this! “It’s heavy!”
“haha! I’m glad I have a responsible guy. “The future of the Mortal Army is very bright.”
“It’s heavy!”
The two men bickered and headed to the silent battle.
* * *
That evening.
Yeon Ho-jeong, who came to Pagungak after a long time and slept for more than half a day, woke up with a frown.
‘Is it night?’
The moonlight coming through the window was very warm.
It was a time when summer was passing and turning into fall. My body gradually cooled down due to the cool wind blowing.
I liked this cold wind. Yeon Ho-jeong got up and sat cross-legged.
Wooooow.
My muscles and nerves all over my body became active as my body became more active.
The blue essence surrounding my entire body was as clear and beautiful as always. Perhaps because it was night, the color of Byeoknajingi seemed to resemble moonlight.
‘good.’
Now it’s really just around the corner. Byeoknajingyeol was struggling himself to break through to the realm of the ten saints.
Ugh.
A white tiger rose based on the stable Byeoknajingyeol.
“Whoop.”
The abundant air contains a large amount of natural energy.
The white essence that entered the lungs spread out to the nerves of the entire body. The heartbeat gradually accelerated and soon a bright red aura appeared.
Pusssss.
Translucent black energy flowed out of the body according to Yeonhojeong’s name. The Northern Black Hyeonmugi binds up and expels the turbid energy lurking in the body.
‘It’s refreshing.’
Recently, in order to heal internal injuries, more attention has been paid to Byeoknajingyeol itself rather than Samsingi. Of course, it was also to increase achievement.
It’s been a while since I actively practiced Samsingi for a long time, and I felt like my body was definitely changing. I wanted to run out to the training ground right away and swing the Gwangryongbu.
Kuuk.
The torn palm was also fully recovered. It felt like most of my body’s fatigue had disappeared after one deep sleep.
“This is it.”
Although her mind and body were more refreshed than ever, Yeon Ho-jeong could not help but smile bitterly.
“No matter how much you paid attention to the kids, you’ve been too complacent. “I need to reflect.”
Even if it was possible for Byeokrajingi or Samsingi, I didn’t even know that my body was getting tired right now with the wall of transcendence right in front of me.
It wasn’t like that during the time of the Dark Emperor. This is because, regardless of the issue of skill or internal strength, I fought completely alone at that time.
When fatigue built up, I went to a place where no one knew and spent a few days recovering my strength before coming out. Then, he fought again, and when he was seriously injured, he hid again and stored up his stamina.
A time when I could constantly become stronger because I was alone.
Yeon Ho-jeong, who was reminiscing about the past, soon shook her head.
“Stop saying things that aren’t funny. “The reason our progress slowed down, whether alone or together, was because we weren’t nervous.”
There are clear environmental differences. But Yeon Ho-jeong did not try to use that as an excuse.
‘Slowly.’
Three colors flickered in Yeonhojeong’s blue pupils.
‘I need to wake you up.’
Byeokna Jin-gyeol is just around the corner from the Ten Seongs, and Samsingi has also shown sufficient maturity and separation through actual battles so far.
Out of greed, I tried to climb higher and pull it out, but I felt like I couldn’t delay it any longer.
I feel the need to tighten my slightly loose mind like before.
‘I summon the last Four Gods before leaving the village.’
Blue dragon.
We will call upon the incarnation of the life force of the Eastern Divine Beast and form the complete Four Gods Qi.
‘I’ll have to ask my father for a favor tomorrow.’
When I went through the return process, I was able to see my father at Museongjeon.
But the servants’ meeting was long again today. Although the Murim League’s system is slowly being established, there is still a lot of detailed overtime work to be done.
“Um, should I sleep better?”
It is a well-earned rest. I thought it would be a good idea to put aside my worries and get some sleep for today.
It was when Yeon Ho-jeong was about to lie down in bed.
“…oh?”
A clear prayer can be felt at the entrance to Pagungak outside the window.
Yeon Ho-jeong immediately jumped out of the window.
Paralarak!
The clothes blowing in the wind were like wings.
Yeon Ho-jeong landed softly and there was a man standing in front of him.
Yeon Ho-jeong looked at his body with strange eyes.
“her! “I need to reflect on this. I’ve made amazing progress since I haven’t even seen it.”
“is it?”
Mo Yong-woo smiled brighter than ever.
It was the wonderful expression of someone who had no qualms about anything that he had never shown before, even in front of Prince Moyong.
“How are you doing, Yeonjae?”
