Episode 239
The world does not change (1)
“Are you ready?”
“That’s right.”
“….”
“How can you look so bad?”
“no.”
“As you already know, we are people who are not worthy of sympathy. “Even though my family was taken hostage and everyone was chronically addicted to poison, that doesn’t mean the sins I’ve already committed go away.”
“….”
“To be more honest… we moved under orders from Prince Moyong, but we also committed terrible acts without our superiors knowing.”
“….”
“There are many families that have fallen into ruin not because of Moyong-gun but because of us. “Maybe it was a feeling of desperation, but such excuses are meaningless.”
“Stop it.”
“So there’s no need to look so sad. “This kind of death is rather undeserved for us who have abandoned human duties.”
“….”
“It is a satisfying death just because the elder of the Jeomchang Sect bowed his head to us.”
“I will never forget your names.”
“It is an honour.”
“The only thing I’m worried about is your family. “The working-level manager will take care of it well, but I’m worried that there might be some damage.”
“Haha, you actually care more about us than we, your family. “Looking at things like this, we still have a long way to go.”
“I know that my heart will never reach your level.”
“No, we are not really worried. “If I had been concerned about that, I wouldn’t have done business with the practitioner in the first place.”
“Whoa.”
“Even though they were bred like dogs, they know things. Mr. Moyong is a person who values face. “I may cross the line sometimes, but I am not one to break my promises.”
“If you guys believe that, I’ll put my worries aside too.”
“thank you.”
“Now… let’s begin.”
“All right. And senior Paeyul.”
“Please speak.”
“Thank you so much.”
“…I am not worthy of such a greeting.”
Paeyul sighed deeply.
Chaaaaang!
A powerful true energy rose from the drawn sword body.
“Let’s get started.”
After a while.
Kwaaaaang!
The group’s residence exploded, sparks flying in all directions.

“….”
A strange silence surrounded the table.
Mo Yong-gun thought as he looked at Yeon Ho-jeong’s relaxed expression.
‘What are your intentions?’
When Yeon Ho-jeong first opened the door and came in, I really thought my heart was being ripped out. I wondered if something had gone wrong.
I calmed down my shocked mind, but I still felt a chill running down my spine.
‘Why did you appear? ‘Without any further contact?’
It is unlikely that his identity was discovered or that he was taken in by the Mukryongbu. It was certain.
But he wasn’t the kind of guy who would show up without saying anything except for that reason. No matter how urgent it is, he’s not so incompetent that he can’t even send a letter.
‘Even Hugae said that work was progressing well.’
Mo Yong-gun’s eyes wavered.
‘You guys can’t believe me?’
Is it to be offered as a sacrifice to the Mukryongbu?
‘…why?’
Mo Yong-gun, who was quietly examining Yeon Ho-jeong’s eyes, shook his head inwardly.
‘no. These guys have no intention of selling me to the Mukryongbu.’
If you really meant to sell it, there is no need to show it like this. In other words, the problem will end if you send the top leaders of the Mukryongbu and their subordinate troops to control the entire area and raid it. There is no reason to do something this complicated.
‘What on earth are you thinking, you b*stard?’
At that time, Yeon Ho-jeong opened his mouth.
“You seem very surprised.”
Moyong smiled bitterly.
“But that’s beyond words. “I thought I would have this opportunity to meet the great master Tuwang.”
“I understand.”
“You will understand this too. “I’m not feeling well right now.”
Yeon Ho-jeong shrugged his shoulders.
“I completely understand, but anyway, as long as the results are good, it doesn’t matter.”
“It’s not wrong. “The only thing I’m curious about is whether you have the authority to do that.”
“I came as Vice President’s representative. Although I am not a master like him, you can think of my judgment as the judgment of the Vice Lord.”
Prince Moyong, who was quietly looking at Yeonhojeong, smiled.

“Looking at you, you are truly an amazing talent.”
“exactly?”
“You look tall and your martial arts skills are also great. Moreover, at that age, not only did he hold the position of head of the intelligence department, but he was appointed deputy chief agent, which means he was a powerful person among powerful people.”
“….”
“There is a young man similar to you in our headquarters. “He was also young and surprised everyone with his outstanding martial arts skills and amazing strategies.”
Yeon Ho-jeong chuckled.
“It seems he is the rumored commander of the Mortal Army.”
Mo Yong-gun’s eyes sparkled.
‘You say it out loud?’
It was said to provoke the other person. However, Yeonhojeong’s response was very bold.
‘I mean it’s not just to stab me in the back.’
Prince Moyong glanced at the flower garden.
He had a quite cold expression. But he could read the strange discomfort on the painter’s face.
‘Hmm.’
Moyong smiled brightly.
“Would you like a drink?”
“I don’t really like alcohol.”
“Hehe, I guess you’re at an age where you’re starting to open your eyes to the arts?”
“I have no doubt that the matriarch would not do that, but you never know. “Maybe the alcohol was poisoned.”
For a moment, Hwawon flinched.
Even though Mo Yong-gun was watching Yeon Ho-jeong the whole time, he noticed Hwa-won’s reaction like a ghost.
‘There was a disturbance.’
Prince Moyong said in a slightly sad tone.
“I think you think too negatively of this person. “They say that these days, even city officials don’t do things like that.”
“Haha, my words were a bit harsh. Unfortunately, I’m not as good at distribution as my assistant. “I know you won’t do that, but there’s no harm in being careful with each other.”
“Heh, that’s right.”
Yeon Ho-jeong looked around.
“It looks like the matriarch has made some preparations as well. “Did you put gunpowder, not poison?”
“….”
“When I looked down at this neighborhood earlier, I thought it was an amazing place. The retreat route is to the west, leading to the river and mountains… Have you also deployed the warriors of the Sega family?”
For a moment, Moyong was taken aback.
‘This guy?’
Someone from the Mukryongbu is also there, so what if I say that out loud?
Of course, knowing that wouldn’t change the situation, but it wasn’t necessary. At least that’s what Moyong thought.
“Hehe, this is one hit.”
“Like I said, there’s nothing wrong with being careful with each other, right?”
“That is correct.”
Moyong quietly crossed his legs.
“I’m a little embarrassed, but I also know you’re not normal. Of course, you must have planted coriander in this area, right?”
Yeon Ho-jeong accepted it happily.
“I heard that the matriarch’s level is very outstanding.”
“also.”
Moyong said with a smile.
The conversation just goes nowhere. Someone needed to turn the tide.
“so.”
Prince Moyong’s eyes suddenly became bloodthirsty.
“Why did you show up like this without any prior notice?”
The tone of speech changed.
Yeon Ho-jeong shrugged his shoulders.
“Why do you think that is?”
“I don’t know.”
Did he just want to get rid of all these boring plays?
Mo Yong’s face was noticeably distorted.
“I really don’t know. If things were handled this way, no good would come out for either of us. “It’s not like I don’t know that.”
“You don’t know.”
Yeon Ho-jeong’s expression also gradually became cold.
“But I’d like to ask you something from my side as well. “You really thought I would just overlook it?”
He meant that he would now speak openly. It also meant that there was no need to worry about the painter.
“Of course.”
Mo Yong-gun’s voice was full of sincerity.
“In other words, they had nothing to do with you. “You may be angry, but what’s important to you is accomplishing your mission, not stabbing me in the back.”
“Are you serious?”
“Did you really think it wasn’t true?”
Yeon Ho-jeong shook his head.
“You killed innocent people for your own self-interest.”
“So did any harm come to you?”
“You can’t join hands with someone you don’t trust. And before that, please think about why we were sent on this mission.”
“What do you want to say?”
“On a small scale, it is to keep the opponent in check, but on a larger scale, isn’t it to create a better world? “But even though you were the commander of this operation, you killed innocent people to satisfy your own selfish desires, so you left the cleanup to the working group.”
Yeon Ho-jeong said with a smile.
“Now, answer me. Aside from trusting each other’s abilities, can you trust a person who drives you crazy by doing petty things that even a third-rate gangster wouldn’t do?”
“I’m telling you clearly…”
“If I do something like that without saying a word to you while you’re going through such a hard time, how will you get out?”
Prince Moyong kept his mouth shut.
Yeon Ho-jeong nodded.
“Something like that. As you know, I am quite narrow-minded. “Once something happens, you never forget it.”
“Ah yes. You and I are both narrow-minded people. However, the reason it does not act as a major disadvantage is because you know when the time is right.”
Flash! Flash!
A lightning-like spark leapt from Mo Yong’s eyes.
Mo Yong-gun was truly angry. The power of Sang-go’s Jeolhak Noejeonggong, which he had been controlling well, was slowly leaking out.
“Tell me. Are you serious? “Did you really do such a useless thing because you wanted to see me embarrassed?”
“Then what are you going to do?”
“You will be disappointed. sincerely.”
Moyong-gun frowned.
“Are you this much of a person? “If you wanted to vent your anger, you can do it after this mission is over.”
“You can never do that.”
“what?”
“It’s obvious that after this mission, you know I’m going to hit you and have a plan in place, so why do I need to give you time to prepare?”
Prince Moyong was dumbfounded.
“Do you want this mission to fail?”
“That’s it. “Complete this mission will be your top priority, so you won’t waste anything on me, right?”
“…!”
“That’s a pretty funny certainty, too. “Is there really a need to choose between succeeding in the mission and having your own head ripped off?”
Mo Yong-gun’s face hardened.
The cool, subdued air. Inside, Hwawon could not help but be embarrassed.
‘what? ‘What kind of conversation is this?’
Could it be that the two people knew each other?
‘What on earth…?’
Moyong glanced at her in confusion and spoke bitterly.
“In any case, bringing in that obnoxious woman means that it doesn’t matter if an accident happens in this space, right?”
“exactly.”
“Come back and see. “I daresay that you will not be able to avoid censure this time.”
Yeon Ho-jeong chuckled.
“You better look forward too. “Because the boards are all laid out.”
“what?”
It was then.
Whoa whoa!
A look of astonishment appeared on the painter’s face.
“monkey.”
Yeon Ho-jeong, who had already planted a spear in her solar plexus, spoke coldly.
“Didn’t I tell you? There’s no need to return the favor.”
“Kukkkeok!”
“If you want to play with alcohol in the afterlife, first find out the other person’s level and then hit them.”
Hwawon’s body trembled.
“You son of a b*tch…!”
Yeon Ho-jeong raised his spear and struck.
Fuwaaaaak!
Hwawon’s body was split lengthwise.
