Episode 460
Journey to find the truth (10)
The moment when Yang Cheon’s fist splits the air and approaches.
Kang Ryang’s eyes were accurately capturing that fleeting moment.
‘fast. And strong.’
A power far beyond imagination was concentrated in the fist that shot out like an awl through the wall of air.
At its current level, it was difficult to even dare to look at it. There was nothing that was not admirable, including the density of force, the flow, and the path that created the geometric waves of air.
‘You have such fists.’
It was surprising that an ordinary-looking fist contained such complex power management and power flow.
Kang Ryang’s eyes deepened.
The surprise is only fleeting.
‘Is this how you die?’
It cannot be avoided or prevented. I couldn’t cope with any of the studying I had done so far.
The efforts that have been made over the past dozen years can be blown away in an instant.
‘It’s fleeting.’
Time, which had slowed down, sped up again at an alarming speed.
Paaaaang!
Considering the speed of the fist, the sound of the air exploding was not that loud.
“Cough!”
Kang-Ryang flew out of Samjang and spilled a bowl of blood.
‘…?!’
Surprisingly, Kangryang did not die.
‘Corruption?’
Perhaps because it was night, the color of the blood that poured out seemed particularly dark.
The smell coming from the blood was also very fishy and strong. It was almost as if I was addicted.
Kang Liang looked up at Yang Chen.
Yang Chen was looking down at him with his back turned.
“…What is it?”
“What do you mean?”
Kang Ryang stood up.
The dull pain in my chest seemed like it would last for several days. It was such a painful blow.
But his insides were much cleaner than before. This is because the blood that Kang-ryang vomited contained a very small amount of turbidity that he was not aware of.
Kang-ryang, who was looking at Yang Cheon, asked again.
“Why this favor?”
Yes. This was a favor.
Moreover, he was the one who boldly declared that he would kill Yang Cheon. Yang Cheon actually pulled out the dirty energy from such a person’s body.
Yang Chen shook his head.
“Don’t misunderstand. “I’m not crazy enough to help a man who wants to kill me.”
“But…”
“But Tuwang’s pride is much stronger than you think.”
Yang Chen’s eyes twitched.
It seemed like he was smiling or frowning. It was a truly strange expression.
“Since you are in danger, where would you rather go to Yeonhojeong? Even that Yeonhojeong cannot compare to the powerhouse of Seongcheon. “At least not yet.”
“….”
“It’s hard to count the number of people in the world who are trying to kill me. “Life won’t change just because a talented young person gets involved.”
Yang Chen looked up at the sky.
The unusually bright moonlight seemed to give him a strange inspiration. His eyes, which were once hard as steel, seemed to have softened a little.
“As the Lord of the Ink Dragon, you are someone who must be killed. However, King Yangcheon would be disappointed to know that such an action would be blocking the growth of a talented person who would be a good stimulus to his students.”
Yang Cheon looked at Kang Ryang again.
Kang Ryang’s eyes did not waver even at this moment.
Yang Chen smiled.
“Think of it as being back to the way it was. If I hadn’t come here, you would have crossed the wall of martial arts and entered the new world. “Even though I can’t help you get over the wall right away, I can make you some scaffolding.”
Yangcheon, who was quietly watching Kang Ryang, walked toward the base.
“It was an impressive sword dance. “It was still a long way away, but at least we didn’t go astray.”
Yangcheon calmly walks away as if he had said everything he wanted to say.
Looking at his back, Kang Ryang instantly felt an emotion that was difficult to harbor towards his enemy.
‘…Are you a servant?’
Kang Ryang asked.
“You’ve probably heard this countless times.”
“hmm?”
“You will regret it.”
Yang Chen paused.
But he also waved his hand for a moment as if showing off.
“At least if you become stronger than me, you will never regret losing to such an opponent.”
“Then we should aim for the moment when Buju is weak.”
“Unfortunately, the moment when I become weak will never come. “It will be faster for you to become stronger.”
Just like that, Yangcheon entered the bases.
Gangryang, who was left alone, pondered Yangcheon’s words.

‘I am getting stronger faster….’
This is truly great confidence. That means Yang Chen himself will not weaken until he dies.
But what if you interpret that saying differently?
‘It means that you will not become weak, but you will become stronger than you are.’
I don’t know what intention he had for saying that. However, what was important was the fact that the absolute master who was the best in martial arts and the pinnacle of power recognized himself as a martial artist.
And that fact didn’t really impress Kang Ryang.
“To the majority of the Black Island martial arts people, you are a giant who deserves respect. But at least to me, you can be nothing more or less than an enemy with whom I cannot live in the same heaven.”
Kang Ryang touched his chest.
He did not consider Yang Chen’s help as help. In the same vein, he did not think that he had failed to break through the Wuzongji Wall because of Yang Chen.
It was simply because I wasn’t confident enough. If he had really concentrated, he would have somehow managed to break through the barrier of martial arts, regardless of whether Yang Chen came or not.
Of course, if that were the case, Yangcheon’s reaction would have been different.
“Hwaaaam!”
Kang Ryang stretched out.
The pain was still there, but I felt refreshed. At the same time, I was very tired.
“I guess I should get some sleep. Damn it hurts so much. “I don’t know if that guy left the pain on purpose.”
* * *
Yeon Ho-jeong was writing alone with two bright lamps and a candle lit.
Squeak. Squeak.
A creak sounded from the stairs.
Yeon Ho-jeong straightened up the overturned glass.
After a while, Yang Cheon appeared.
“It’s been a while.”
“How have you been?”
“It’s a plausible picture. “It’s a solo project on a moonlit night… It must be quite charming.”
“I have prepared some good drinks. Please sit down.”
“It’s good.”
Yang Cheon walked and sat across from Yeon Ho-jeong.
He had a gentle expression, as if he had come to meet a close friend. It wasn’t just the facial expression, but also the gait and atmosphere.
Yeon Ho-jeong sighed.
Yang Chen tilted his head.
“Why the sudden sigh?”
“Have you recently gained enlightenment? “It seems like it has become more difficult to deal with.”
It was an honest statement without any modifications.
Yang Cheon thought that Yeon Ho-jeong’s insight and reaction were amazing. As he said to his disciple, this guy knew very well how to treat people.
“Thanks to you. “After I detoxified that damn poison, I felt at peace.”
“I did something for nothing.”
“If you hadn’t done that pointless thing, your life would have been pretty boring, right?”
Yeon Ho-jeong chuckled.
“I have to admit it.”
“Stop yelling and fill your glass.”
“Let’s do that.”
After a while, the two people clinked their glasses and emptied their drinks neatly.
“Didn’t I say it was a good drink?”
“You don’t like it?”
“Isn’t simplicity going too far? “How can cheap white wine be good alcohol?”
“There’s nothing like it for my taste.”
“If you keep drinking this kind of thing, you’ll get upset.”
“If you were to be thrown away like that, you would have already gotten sick and died. By the way…”
Yeon Ho-jeong smiled meaningfully.
“Why did you do something unbecoming of a lord?”
Yangcheon played it off.
“I don’t know what you’re talking about.”
“I mean strong.”
Yang Cheon felt somewhat embarrassed. I thought you were talking about Bottas.
“I don’t think he’s the kind of guy who’s still going to be careless.”
“If it had been the kind of force I see, I would have already been beheaded.”
“That won’t work. “I also need to increase my training time.”
“Hehehe.”
Yeon Ho-jeong spoke in a somewhat serious voice.
“I don’t know how people can know the future, but I think that when a situation arises in the future where our relationship is severed, at least both of Careless’ heads will fall in his hands, not mine.”
“on the other way.”
Yangcheon said as he filled Yeonhojeong’s cup.
“You all could die by my hands. And I think the odds of that happening are higher.”
“That is correct.”
“How easy and comfortable life would be if it went as planned. “Well, an easy, comfortable life isn’t fun.”
“That is also true.”
The two emptied their glasses again.
Yangcheon, who was frowning at the strong taste of white wine, sighed.
“The gift I sent you was well received.”
Yeon Ho-jeong chuckled.
“I just packed it.”
“Ah yes. “If it had been caught in your hands, every bone would have been torn off.”
“That might have been better. “Having an arm cut off by an unmanned person is fatal.”
“If you could give up one of your arms and reach a higher level, wouldn’t it be a profitable business? Even if it’s just one leg.”
I’m serious.
Yeon Ho-jeong realized. What Yang Cheon said now is sincere.
“I didn’t think it was something to be cherished.”
“I am very equal in my treatment of my students. We value equal education and equal treatment. However, it is generously given to those who climb up from there properly.”
“Like the second disciple?”
“yes.”
In an instant, Yang Cheon’s eyes became cold.
“Even if you are stupid and spoiled, you are still my disciple. “The title ‘Tuwang’s disciple’ did not disappear before the name Jeon Hong.”
“Thank goodness. “Thanks to you, I didn’t die.”
“The descendants of the extinct demon sword overwhelmed the three princes of the Mukryongbu and put them to shame. “I don’t think you realize what a troubling problem this is.”
“That’s why I’m so glad.”
“If I had killed him, I would have been able to come up with a picture of generous forgiveness.”
“Are you serious?”
Yang Cheon, who was glaring at Yeon Ho-jeong with cold eyes, soon smiled.
“As expected, they won’t budge with threats like this.”
“If I really didn’t like it, Kang-ryang wouldn’t have survived.”
“I am amazed once again. “You really have great insight.”
Yeon Ho-jeong, who was quietly smiling, filled his glass again.
“Anyway, Buju’s disciple started the dispute first, so let’s pretend this never happened.”
“Sure.”
The two emptied their glasses again.
After three glasses were emptied, the conversation progressed to the main topic.
“I believe you know why I invited Buju.”
“Has the time for joking passed?”
“It’s over.”
“Then I admit it. That’s right, I know why you invited me here.”
Yeon Ho-jeong’s eyes sank.
At that moment, Yang Chen felt it. Now that the work in Guangdong has been completed, Yeonhojeong has grown to another level compared to the past.
Before my enlightenment or inner strength, I had an intuition that something had changed.
“Is it Buju who brought Botaam to that point?”
Yang Chen acknowledged with a cheerful voice.
“Nothing is more certain than that.”
“As the Lord of the Ink Dragon, I know very well that Botaam’s sword is a thorn in his eyes.”
“…I knew.”
“But I don’t think it’s just because of that…”
“I’m sorry, but before that, let me ask you a question.”
“Please speak.”
Yang Chen asked with an expressionless face.
“What can you do to destroy the Saeumgyo?”
“…?!”
“Are you ready to throw away everything?”
The corners of Yeon Ho-jeong’s mouth rose.
