Episode 445
The future on the sword (7)
“What?”
Zhuge Wenho’s face became serious.
“Please explain in detail.”
The three disciples of openness, sent directly by Moon Man-seong, conveyed everything in detail, including the current situation in Uijeong-gun, the situation in Guangdong, and even the approach of a branch of Bota-am.
“Bota… One of the tribes of Bota went to Yeon Daesu…”
It was reported that the representative and successor of Yeonhwamun (蓮花門), one of the three tribes of Botaam, headed toward Mukryongbu in Honam.
I told the ambassador first, but because the issue is a private matter, it has not yet been revealed at the public meeting. I’ll reveal it soon, but the situation was so chaotic that I was just waiting for the right moment.
Of course, that would be after the public ambassador had received a reply to the letter he had placed in Bothaam.
‘But another tribe headed towards Yeon Daesu?’
Zhuge Li’s index finger continued to tap on the table.
‘Why on earth?’
The reputation of Yeon Ho-jeong, the commander of the Murim League integrated military unit, was quite remarkable.
Considering his age, it was not easy to achieve this level of fame at such a young age. There was also a view that the Murim Alliance was pushing a young expert too much, so there was a certain amount of bubbles.
Of course it was a misunderstanding. Considering Yeonhojeong’s abilities, Byeoksanhojang’s reputation in the central region felt like it had been greatly diminished.
Whatever it was, Yeonhojeong’s reputation was the best among the later indices. However….
‘There is no way I went to Daesoo Yeon to ask for something personally. Rather, you might have tried to ask something from the main organization through Yeon Dae-su.’
No matter how outstanding Yeon Ho-jeong’s reputation is, he is still a reviewer.
In other words, it cannot overcome the reputation of the group called Murimmaeng. It was natural. Even if you are a strong individual, you cannot beat the reputation of a group.
However, the representative of Tiananmen, another branch of Botaam, and the successor to Mun went to Yeon Ho-jeong?
‘It’s one of two things. Either the intention was to roast and boil the lotus tree, or…’
Someone was joking in the middle.
The possibilities are endless. If you think about it a bit radically, you can even imagine that Yeon Ho-jeong and Bota-am have had some kind of relationship since the past without the Murimmaeng’s knowledge.
Naturally, Zhuge Munho gave up all such ridiculous imaginations. It was not something such a smart person would have done before trusting in Yeon Ho-jeong.
‘The tribes of Botaam are three. Among them, Yeonhwamun Gate headed to Mukryongbu and Tiananmen Gate headed to Yeon Daesu. So what about the remaining one?’
Zhuge Wenhu’s eyes deepened.
The information was too poor. From the beginning, even though I received information that the conflict within the sect was continuing as it belonged to the Buddhist sect, I did not dig into it properly.
If it’s natural, it’s natural. Bothaam was not a member of the Buddhist Order or Menghoe. Even though they had not committed anything heinous that anyone could acknowledge, conducting an internal investigation was crossing the line.
‘Whatever it is, it looks like the conflict that erupted in Botaam is bigger than expected. The fact that the representative of the affiliated tribe stopped by Mukryongbu before the Yeon Daesu…’
Zhuge Munho, who was thinking about this and that, quickly nodded.
“I understand for now. great job.”
“thank you. And this…”
Gaekdo took out a small letter from his arms.
Even though he wore tattered clothes, his letters were clean.
Zhuge Wenhu’s eyes lit up.
“After Hu Gai delivered his message, he told me to also deliver this letter.”
“I see.”
“Then I’ll leave.”
“Thank you.”
As soon as the opening message was released, Zhuge Lianghu immediately opened the letter.
His eyes sparkled.
…So both Daesoo Yeon and I are guessing that the Mukryongbu was actively involved in this situation. Although there is no clear physical evidence, considering that the letter was sent directly to Lord Mukryong, the circumstances can be considered almost certain.
However, there is a risk of political pressure if you conduct an unreasonable investigation in a situation where the specificity of the Botaam sect and the clear causal relationship with the Mukryongbu are not revealed. If you give us an order to organize this part, we will dig it up as an open, independent operation.
As expected, something like this happened.
Zhuge Wenhu’s head quickly turned again.
‘Botaam… The symbol of Botaam is Geomhu. With Inkryongbuju’s martial arts skills, even the world’s greatest swordsman would not be afraid, much less the power of a group cannot even be compared. If Buju Mukryong really encouraged the conflict in Bota, then why…?’
At that moment, Zhuge Liang cried out in exclamation.
“Certainly, the current Mukryongbu would not be pleased with the presence of Geomhu.”
In order for the final candidate for Botha to rise to the rank of swordsman, he or she must prove good and evil in addition to martial arts.
So, candidates for Geomhu came to the central government for each generation, accumulated good deeds without anyone knowing, endured evil, and then returned to Botaam.
Of course, not many people know this fact. It was the same for high-ranking figures of the Murim League.
A female swordsman who deliberately hides her existence works together for at least a few months and up to several years under a truly evil decision. Since he was a candidate who had already reached perfection in terms of martial arts, it would not have been that difficult to hide himself.
This is a fact that Zhuge Munho would not have known if he had not heard it from the public ambassador.
‘The Mukryongbu is a new association. Although the presence of a giant named Yangcheon is so great, when viewed as an organization, it is still difficult to maintain a stable foundation. ‘There is no choice but to leave it completely to time.’
People’s misconception is that if you have enough military force and money, it is easy to establish an organization.
It is possible. The problem was continuity.
Whether it will shine and disappear for just one generation or continue for hundreds of years is determined by the authority and personality orientation of the school in question.
What kind of evaluation has it been received over the years? How much power is used and for what purpose?
Time and luck must be right, and public sentiment and relationships with other factions are also important.
In that respect, the Mukryongbu did not have much to show the world yet. In other words, people in the world are bearing the negative perception of blackness.
In this situation, what if a candidate for Geomhu comes into the world with the intention of punishing evil?
‘I will definitely be challenged. Candidate Geomhu will also not be able to pass by the Mukryongbu, the Black Island Alliance, to prove his power and ideology. No matter who loses, for Yang Chen, being challenged itself acts as a factor that causes him to lose his dignity.’
Yangcheon, an invincible fighter who has lived at odds with the world.
No matter how great the martial arts skills of candidate Geomhu are, it will not be easy to overcome Yangcheon.
Of course, Yangcheon would not have put Botaam in that situation because he was afraid of Geomhu. What he was afraid of was not defeat, but the influence and presence of the Mukryongbu.
‘After all, Yangcheon. If you look into it that far, you’re really not an ordinary person.’
Although there is no concrete physical evidence yet, Zhuge Liang was already convinced that Yangcheon existed behind the Botaam conflict.

For the military, confidence without physical evidence is a risky choice. Nevertheless, the reason he was confident about this matter was because he believed in Yeon Ho-jeong and Moon Geun-sang’s abilities.
‘For now, let’s assume that and move on. Then, one question remains.’
Yangcheon can empower one of the three tribes. Then, the possibility of a Geomhu being born from that tribe increases, and furthermore, Mukryongbu and Botaam can become allies.
In other words, Botaam’s troubles should not be noticed by anyone. Nevertheless, Yang Cheon sent a letter to Yeon Ho-jeong telling him to take care of one of the tribes of Bota.
For what reason?
‘The goal is not to obtain Botaarm.’
However, the goal is not to completely destroy Bothaam. If he had intended to eliminate Bothaam, he would have attacked directly and cut off the heads of everyone involved. Yang Cheon had that much power.
then?
‘A clever plan to do something using Botaarm.’
Even in situations where the military cannot be certain of anything. You must be able to read the situation, an individual’s personality, location, and current trends and look ahead.
In that respect, unlike Yeon Hao-jeong, who predicted the future through experience and intuition, Zhuge Wen-ho was clearly a military man.
Zhuge Wenhu quickly wrote a letter.
‘Now is not the time to make hasty moves, Yang Buju.’
With Deungcheongyo’s explosive remarks, the atmosphere at the leadership of the Murim Alliance became as cold as a sheet of thin ice.
The existence of the three religions has already been revealed to everyone. If Yangcheon was planning to use Botaam to do something to the three religions, it had to be stopped before the Black and White Way.
“Are you outside?”
“Yes, soldier.”
The door opened and a military officer came in.
Zhuge Wenhu handed over two pieces of letters.
“Please convey this to Hu Gai, and pass this on to the Honam Mukryongbu intelligence group.”
“…yes?”
“There is no time! hurry!”
“Oh yeah!”
Musa took the letter and left the room.
Zhuge Wenhu also stood up.
The situation was turning quite urgently. This is not the time to leisurely sit in the office and focus on work.
Zhuge Munho, wearing his royal attire, left his office.
The place he was heading to was the residence of Prince Moyong.

Shocked by Beom-o’s words and the aftermath of the Buddhist Qigong, Hwa-un shed bloody tears and fainted.
Hwaun fainted and did not wake up even after three days. Although she did not suffer any physical strain, such as internal injuries, it was because Beom-o’s Prajna Dae ability shook the Buddhist Qigong that she had trained and cleared away the confusion that was in the middle of the middle stage.
The middle game, which was shaken by external forces, reached the upper stage and shocked the heart. She won’t be able to wake up for a while.
“Anyway, it’s amazing again.”
Beom-oh, who was drinking tea, blinked at Yeon Ho-jeong’s words.
“what?”
“A strong man like him couldn’t come to his senses for three days. “It seems that Monk Beom-o’s lion’s rear was quite powerful.”
Beom-oh smiled bitterly.
“Banya Dae ability is one of the best new skills regardless. “Anyone who has mastered the anti-demon fire technique has no choice but to become helpless in front of the power of Prajna.”
“Hoo.”
“However, it was a ruse that was possible because she herself was clearly aware of her own mistakes. “If I didn’t feel the slightest bit of guilt, the power of Prajna would have been useless.”
Lion’s Hood was not just a martial art.
It is the sound of enlightenment that shakes the agony as a single relief. Of course, the effect would only be effective if the caster’s stamina and awareness were exceptional.
“Anyway, when you wake up later, will it be any different than before?”
“I don’t know that either. If enlightenment could be achieved through one act, who in the world would not be a enlightened being? “Such a thing is impossible unless you are a Buddha.”
“but.”
“I just let you know that the path is wrong and caused a rift in your agony, but in the end, everything is up to you.”
Yeon Ho-jeong smiled.
“You really seem like a proper monk now.”
Beom-oh smiled awkwardly.
“You really showed a lot of ugly side to Daesoo Yeon.”
“What was it that was full of humanity and good?”
“Hehehe.”
It was around this time that the two people were having a peaceful conversation.
“Kite algebra!”
A voice came from far away near the window.
“What’s going on?”
“I got a call from the military! But…”
“Hmm?”
Full-sang’s face was full of sadness as he reached the window.
“It is said that the existence of the Three Religions was made known at the Fonggong Council.”
Yeon Ho-jeong’s eyes became cold.
