Episode 238
Conflict (8)
“Matriarch, preparations are complete.”
“Well, you worked hard.”
Prince Moyong sipped his drink.
I felt like the fragrant strong liquor was setting fire from my esophagus to my stomach. Even he had never drank strong liquor, which was almost pure liquor.
Mo Yong-gun’s face was very serious as he looked down at the glass.
‘I never thought I’d meet Tuwang like this.’
Even though I was the one who said I would meet him, I felt very strange when I heard that I was actually going to meet him.
‘It’s a fight.’
Seongcheon Thirteenth Place.
The name proves that he is of a different class from other masters who are called the best in martial arts.
It is known that among the Seongcheonjwa, the ten members of the Immortal Emperor are more senior than the three generals and are one level higher in martial arts.
Tuwang was an expert who was one of the youngest among the Shinseon Emperors. Of course, even though he was young, he was already over 60 years old.
‘A hero of the dark sword who proved his strength to the world with only a pair of fists, regardless of his true knowledge of martial arts.’
The reason why Yang Cheon, the fighting king, stands out among the immortal kings is because of his rough martial arts skills and fighting spirit.
There was a strong perception that King Sinseon was a immortal from heaven and earth. It was the same for the three armies.
But it wasn’t Tuwang. He was a world-class fighter who turned the central world upside down with his realistic personality and martial arts skills.
‘Playing alone with such a legendary master…’
Mo Yong-gun took a deep breath for a moment and smiled slightly.
‘Am I being nervous?’
The head of the world’s most famous family is nervous about meeting someone else. It was quite an insult to one’s pride.
But Mr. Moyong accepted that unfamiliar feeling as is.
‘It’s not something that will hurt your pride. Because the opponent is the opponent.’
Even if it’s not that kind of greeting, you should be nervous. Because this is a public meeting, not a private meeting.
Muyeon asked then.
“I may not be a person worthy of that, but… if something happens, I will immediately blow up this entire area.”
Prince Moyong shook his head.
“Of course you should. But there’s no way that two thousand people will do anything just because things don’t go their way.”
“But he is a black man.”
“He is a black man and a fighting king at the same time.”
“It’s a presumptuous question, but… how can you be so confident when you’ve never seen his face yet?”
“It’s more about what you believe than what you are.”
Although he was nervous, he seemed to feel just as much excitement. Mo Yong-gun’s face turned red.
“When you reach this level, there are things you naturally learn without even having to meet someone. Yangcheon is like that too. “He is of a different quality from those vicious blood jade demons and mad spirit demons.”
Although it was a black island, it united many sects and created a huge alliance.
Of course, there will be helpers, but that doesn’t change the fact that he is the head of that huge organization.
In order to become the head of an organization, you must have your own dignity. Yang Cheon was a person who deserved to be highly evaluated just because he had not made himself known until now even though he became the owner of the Ink Dragon Club.
It can be said that he is a person on a truly different level from Gwak Jun (郭俊), the Blood Jade Demon Lord, or Gok Gyeong (曲硬), the Blood Jade Demon Lord, who are said to be the worst among the three armies who are also counted as the Thirteenth Lords of the Holy Heaven.
“It’s just that you can’t be sure how things will turn out in the world. “If there is even the slightest possibility, it is right to thoroughly prepare for it.”
It was Moyong-gun who chose this location. And countless gunpowder and weapons were hidden throughout this building.
Of course, you can’t kill Yang Chen with a device like this. Even though Moyong himself would be seriously injured right now, he was confident that he would somehow escape.
But it is enough to buy time. Although I will never actually use it, I have taken all measures to ensure that if I ever do use it, I can leave this county within half an hour.
“Oh and.”
Prince Moyong frowned.
“Have you received any special communication from Yeon Ho-jeong?”
“That’s right.”
Strange.
‘It would be worth it to say something.’
It is a place to meet the Yangcheon of the world. Considering Yeonhojeong’s handling of business so far, even if it wasn’t a case of information theft, he would have contacted me at least once.
‘It probably means that they are that busy.’
I was puzzled for a moment, but quickly let it go. Because it is well worth it.
However, since I received a separate call from Hugae Full-sang, nothing special would have happened.
“Matriarch.”
“hmm?”
“I just received a call from the other side. They say it was within half an hour’s distance.”
Moyong took a deep breath.
‘Did Yangcheon really ask to meet me for some reason?’
* * *
‘There you go.’
Yeonhojeong’s eyes, looking down at the county from the peak, were truly cold.
‘As expected of Prince Moyong.’
Even though it was a fairly large county, he was able to accurately recognize the building where Prince Moyong had asked to meet.
‘Easy to secure a retreat route. The alley is not complicated, but it leads straight to the river and the mountains. They probably had experts spread all over the retreat route.’
Perhaps the warriors of the Moyong family are lying in ambush throughout the retreat.
‘I don’t know how many warriors were deployed, but it will mean nothing in front of Yang Cheon’s martial arts. It’s not like Moyong-gun doesn’t know that either, but it’s probably just a matter of buying time.’
Yeon Ho-jeong smiled coldly.
‘You must be quite embarrassed.’

He did not inform Prince Moyong of the situation in Yangcheon. Of course, he didn’t even say that he would go instead of Yang Cheon.
It was not simply the intention to embarrass Prince Moyong. Of course, it might be fun to see his embarrassed face, but I wasn’t willing to take the risk just for that reason.
‘I trust you will deal with it properly, Mr. Moyong.’
At that time, Cheongho approached.
“Director of Intelligence.”
“Please speak.”
The first zodiac sign I saw upon entering Honam was Cheongho. However, neither Yeonhojeong nor Cheongho were the type to bring the conflicts of the time to their missions.
“I think you can go down slowly.”
I was wondering if there was any reason to stand here and wait.
Yeon Ho-jeong shook his head.
“Wait just a moment. “I will contact you soon.”
“yes?”
“There is such a thing.”
Cheongho was puzzled, but soon took a step back.
Even though they were zodiac signs, they did not know everything about the Mukryongbu. Rather, since there was no management organization other than his personal subordinates, he was not very knowledgeable about the internal circumstances of the Mukryongbu.
The water dragon said.
“As soon as the head of the intelligence department makes contact with the head of the Moyong family, I will place his personal subordinates outside Baekjang. What do you think, Cheongho?”
Cheongho nodded.
“That would be a good idea.”
The mad dog scratched its head.
“Is there anything wrong? “Unless the Moyong family is crazy, they won’t try to touch us.”
“You never know. “Because the Moyong family will know that the Vice Lord is coming.”
“Yes?”
Gwanggyeon looked at Yeonhojeong with surprised eyes.
“You didn’t contact the head of the Moyong family separately?”
Yeon Ho-jeong nodded.
“The person who first contacted me asking to meet was the vice-lord. “If the vice-lord were to send a representative for some reason, there is a high probability that this event itself would have been cancelled.”
“Hmm.”
It wasn’t wrong.
The mad dog’s eyes sparkled.
“Then how about reducing it to about fifty pages instead of one hundred? I don’t think that will happen, but even if just in case the head of the Moyong family does something…”
They send a representative without giving any prior notice? The other side can be quite angry.
Yeon Ho-jeong shook his head.
“It would be better to place your senior’s subordinates outside the hundred squares, with only one unit inside the thirty squares.”
Everyone in the zodiac nodded. This was because it was the most effective considering the structure and route of the prefecture.
“Then who are you thinking of going in with?”
Yeon Ho-jeong smiled and looked at Hwa-won.
Hwawon, who was looking at him with complicated eyes, was inwardly surprised.
“Senior Hwawon.”
“…yes.”
“Senior, please come in with me.”
Hwawon was embarrassed.
“My me?”
“Is there a problem?”
“…doesn’t exist.”
The mad dog cleared his throat and came out.
“Is there a reason you want to take a monkey or a flower gardener? It would be better to take me or the Hwansa with you…”
“Senior Hwawon’s appearance is quite beautiful. “I don’t know how effective it will be, but I think Senior Hwawon will be better at reassuring the other person than anyone else.”
The water dragon chuckled without realizing it.
“Well, what the Director of Intelligence said is also correct. “There isn’t a guy who doesn’t like girls.”
Everyone burst into laughter.
Surprisingly, the flower garden was quiet unlike usual. Given her personality, she would get angry and swear when a conversation like this came up, but she was busy looking at Yeon Ho-jeong with shaking eyes.
The mad dog glanced at the flower garden and laughed openly.
“why? Is it burdensome? If it feels burdensome, let me know and I will come in instead. “I’m also quite pretty.”
The doctor shook his head.
“It doesn’t mean much even if the guy looks good.”
“Isn’t it okay if I just act a little coquettish? Do you know anything? “I wonder if the Moyong family member is a sodomite.”
“Rad dog.”
“Kuhuhhum!”
Despite the mad dog’s barking, the painter did not get angry.
I wasn’t exactly in a state of mind to get angry.
‘what?’
She was truly embarrassed.
‘Why is it still okay?’
The alcohol she gave to Yeon Ho-jeong yesterday contained an extremely poison called bansi poison.
Banshee poison was not an immediate poison but a delayed poison. At first, it was just a poison that gradually made a person tired, but after a day, it noticeably reduced their physical strength, and after two days, it even broke down their internal energy and put them into a state of suspended animation.
Even if you were an absolute master of the Seongcheon Thirteen Posts level, even if you were a Shaolin master, the extreme poison you could not help but suffer from without an antidote was Banshi poison.
However, Yeonhojeong was much finer than expected. On the contrary, as time passed, he became strangely more energetic, and instead of looking tired, a smile never left his face.
‘Surely you noticed?’
That can’t be possible. The banshee poison that Hwawon infused with alcohol was an object she made after improving it several times. It was colorless and odorless and did not affect the flow of internal energy.
‘Even if you did realize it, you wouldn’t be that fine without the antidote, right?’
It was then.
Food deud deuk!
A black bird flew from across the sky.
It was a dove, not a crow. Judging from the strange luster on its jet-black feathers, it appeared to be not an ordinary catfish.
Yeon Ho-jeong received Jeon Seo-gu and opened the letter tied to his ankle.
His eyes shone.
‘It’s over.’
Both the working group and ‘them’ took their positions.
‘It should have started by now.’
The group looked at him with puzzled eyes. It was a Jeon Seo-gu that had never been seen in Mukryongbu.
Grumbling.
As Yeon Ho-jeong burned the letter, Jeon Seo-gu took off again at a frightening speed.
“let’s go.”
“yes!”
Faaagh!
The group came down from the mountain at once and entered the county.
Passasasak.
After entering a certain depth, all of the zodiac animals except Hwawon scattered in all directions. Even though they bickered with each other, they always did what they had to do.
And after Lee Gak.
Yeon Ho-jeong finally arrived at the meeting place and opened the door without hesitation.
“…?!”
As Yeon Ho-jeong walked inside, he saw Mo Yong-gun.
Moyong was smiling, but his eyes were shaking horribly.
Shake!
The door was closed.
Yeon Ho-jeong took control with moderation.
“Greetings. “My name is Jeong, the head of the information department of the Mukryongbu.”
Prince Moyong, who was watching Yeonhojeong, stood up and hugged her.
“Except for the Moyong family.”
“I have heard many great hymns.”
“Anyway…”
Mo Yong-gun’s smile became more and more strangely distorted. Any discerning expert would immediately sense something strange.
Fortunately, the painter did not notice anything strange. That wasn’t the case.
“He’s the head of the intelligence department… where is the main character going?”
“Due to internal circumstances, I, the head of the Intelligence Department, have come as your representative.”
Yeon Ho-jeong smiled coldly.
“Could you please understand?”
Mo Yong-gun’s eyes trembled.
“…Please take a seat.”
