Episode 824
Back to the Murim Alliance (10)
The Hwaryongdan (火龍團) was one of the newly reorganized Murim Alliance elite units, the Six Dragons (Six Dragons), and had the tendency of an assault unit.
Since senior members of such a unit were selected and entrusted with surveillance, the atmosphere in the unit could not have been good.
However, the selected seniors were different.
The ten Hwaryongdan warriors who watched over Yeonga’s residence and personnel were in awe of the people of Yeonga.
It was natural. Just looking at Yeonwi, his military power is one of the strongest among the feudal lords, and his second son, Yeon Jipyeong, was also a giraffe who achieved the peak of military power in his early twenties.
Even Yeon Ho-jeong, the eldest son, was not only a man of great accomplishments as he roamed the central plains for many years, but was also an unrivaled monster who rose to the position of Seongcheon by performing martial arts at a young age.
Although the power of the six families was the smallest, it is no exaggeration to say that the military power of the Yeon family was the best of its time. These were people who wouldn’t even dare to be jealous at this level.
Pungjo, the most senior member of the Hwaryongdan, who was working inside Pagungak, the residence of Yeonga, suddenly spotted Yeonjipyeong coming out of the building.
“Ah, Captain.”
The wind took over slightly.
“Are you out?”
Yeon Ji-pyeong bowed his head in a hurry.
“For a kid with no position, such a greeting is burdensome.”
A slight smile appeared on Pungjo’s stiff face.
He admired the outstanding talent and powerful martial arts of the Yeonga people, but in fact, what impressed him even more was their character.
Even before Maeng’s surveillance, Yeonwi and Yeon Jipyeong’s personalities were quite famous for being easy-going and polite. Among them, Yeonwi had the military power of a servant and his position as the head of the family, giving off an implicit cool majesty, but this Yeonjipyeong was different.
People are upright and pure. Nevertheless, his martial arts skills are outstanding, and he boasts a military power that is no less inferior to that of the leaders of the Six Dragons at a young age. Even after accumulating such skills, he has a good personality and always humbles himself.
Anyone can’t help but feel good about it.
“It’s a cold day, but you’re working hard.”
Yeon Ji-pyeong unwrapped the wrapping cloth.
Inside the wrapping cloth were rice balls wrapped in a round cloth. The steam was rising and it looked like it had just been made.
“I’m not skilled with my hands, so I can only make things like this. Still, if you eat it, you will feel full.”
“Eating while working is prohibited.”
“Oh, is that so?”
Yeon Ji-pyeong laughed as if he was embarrassed.
“Then eat it after work. “I brought some for the other members too, so share them with them.”
If it were anyone else, they wouldn’t have raised their eyes with suspicion, thinking that it might have been a ploy to relax the guard.
But Pungjo didn’t think like that. Looking into Yeon Ji-pyeong’s innocent eyes, I could see that this young man was truly a person who knew how to take care of those around him.
Pungjo smiled.
“Since just one border is enough, I will distribute these rice balls to the members.”
“Haha, I don’t know if I’m scolding you for giving me rice balls that are nothing special.”
Pungjo called a member who was on duty from afar.
“Take it and share it. “It was made by the master of the Yeonga family.”
“thank you.”
The face of the member carrying the rice ball turned bright red. I was quite hungry at the time.
Yeon Ji-pyeong, who was looking at the back of the member with a satisfied face, asked with a shy smile.
“Are you going through all this trouble for no reason?”
“Is this going to be a hardship? “This is also a mission.”
“okay.”
Pungjo, who was quietly looking at Yeonjipyeong, said.
“Lord Moyong’s strength is truly amazing.”
The person who opened the door was Pungjo. It was my first time seeing the Moyong family so close, so the shock seemed quite significant.
Yeon Ji-pyeong nodded.
“It is said to be the best among the six families in terms of advanced resourcefulness and powerful military power. “I was very surprised when I met him briefly.”
“But it seems that Lord Yeonga’s strength is no less powerful than Lord Moyong.”
It is inevitable to be cautious when discussing the military power of heads of prestigious families. This is even more so when it comes to the blood of one of them.
However, there was no hesitation in Pung Jo’s voice, and Yeon Ji-pyeong did not feel any discomfort.
“Your father is also amazing. “I wonder when we will be able to reach that level of force.”
Pungjo smiled.
“With Lee Gong’s talent and sincerity, I don’t think it’s too far away.”
Yeon Ji-pyeong waved his hand.
“It can’t be. My talent is worthless. Moreover, my father is a person who has achieved enlightenment beyond talent. “I think it would be fortunate if I could keep up with even half of what I did in my later years.”
Rather than praising him more because he was his father, that was Yeon Ji-pyeong’s sincerity.
Yeonwi’s martial arts were not something that could be evaluated simply for the level he had achieved. The truly great thing about Yeonwi was the swordsmanship itself, which he practiced to the limit.
A realization that is in a different realm from the overall increase in martial arts. Although kendo is also an aspect of martial arts, Yeonwi’s kendo, which broke the mold of common sense, advanced into the realm of the same level as the masters who reached the ultimate, even though the martial artist’s body and energy did not reach the ultimate.
“Gendora…”
Pungjo seemed to hesitate and then continued.
“Later, when this mission is over, I would like to be shameless and ask the matriarch for a lesson.”
“Haha, my father would always accept it.”
“Actually, it would be an honor to have a chat with Lord Yeonga before the teaching. “I can’t explain it, but I saw something in him that was different from others.”
“okay.”
Yeon Ji-pyeong looked at the building.
The window in the space where my father and the head of the family were chatting was tightly closed.
“What will Gaju Moyong discover from her current father?”

“How do you feel?”

Moyong-gun took a sip of his drink and shook his head.
“It was still drinkable before it closed, but it was still too strong.”
“So did I.”
“Hehe, you said that.”
The firelight was bright, but it did not light up the entire room.
The two shaded faces created a strange contrast.
“Impressive.”
“…?”
“I knew your strength was as good as anyone else’s, but I didn’t know it was to this extent.”
Yeonwi’s eyes lit up.
Prince Moyong shook his head.
“After entering my life, I gave up my obsession with force and impatience. Then I was able to look around at a lot of things. “If there are times when you have to look only ahead, you also need time to let go of everything and check to see if you have left out anything, but I didn’t have that.”
“I guess so.”
Yeonwi nodded.
“When I saw you again at the conference hall, I was able to confirm that Moyongaju’s military power was noticeably different from before.”
“As expected, I read it.”
“It was like a cloud. “If you look closely, it was so empty that it reminded me of a shamanist guru.”
“Hehe, it’s an honor.”
“However, that cloud was so fierce and dangerous that it could turn into a dark cloud at any time and cause lightning. “Unlike the shamans who embrace us with infinite tenderness, the prayer embraced by Moyong Gaju was based on a thunderbolt that shook the heavens and the earth.”
It’s a pretty abstract word, but there’s no other way to express it.
And after hearing Yeonwi’s words, Prince Moyong had no choice but to acknowledge the other person’s insight.
‘Consider where the lightning comes from before it becomes the lightning itself.’
While looking for the reason why I couldn’t progress further, I gave up my impatience and started meditating, and I carefully checked the teachings of Noejeonggong.
It was the right decision. The answer to development was found in the sermon that was usually overlooked.
Where does lightning come from?
Mo Yong-gun thought that the meaning of the sermon was the strong training of the Samdanjeon. Ultimately, at the center of all energy is the dantian.
However, the meaning of Noejeonggong’s sermon went beyond Danjeon. It meant thinking and exploring more fundamental areas and eventually becoming one with the thunder energy.
Change of imagination Change of will.
This soon led to a change in prayer, and as the prayer changed, the blocked martial arts began to grow radically.
Martial arts develops through training of both mind and body. However, as you reach the extreme, the importance of thinking and imagination increases exponentially, and just by changing your perspective once, your martial arts level rises.
People call it enlightenment. Just one piece of creativity that can bring about change in one’s currently stagnant phenomenon that was previously unknown.
“Maybe more than this person and even more than Ambassador Gong Gong or Seung Hyeon Jin-in.”
“….”
“I think we’re getting close to the end.”
It was a surprising compliment, but Moyong smiled bitterly.
“Do you see it that way?”
“exactly.”
“I don’t know what non-polar is. Because I’ve never gotten there. “Just because I have seen the level of mastery I have reached, there is no guarantee that my martial arts will be the same.”
“That is correct.”
“It’s all nonsense. I am confident that I will reach that level, but I am not confident that I will be able to reach it before anyone else here. Because I don’t think it’s a matter of effort.”
Yeonwi looked at Moyonggun with unexpected eyes.
I have never had a conversation like this with Prince Moyong before. This was because he always thought about what the other person wanted and further focused on destroying the other person’s foundation.
But now that I see it, Moyong was not a bad conversation partner, at least when we were chatting about martial arts. Yeonwi thought so.
“That’s what the martial arts you see looks like.”
“exactly. I have used all my talents and efforts. All that’s left is to bide your time.”
Yeonwi smiled for the first time at Prince Moyong’s calm words.
“That’s not like you.”
“exactly?”
“I remember Gaju Moyong as a much more ambitious and devious person who would do anything to achieve his goals.”
It was a Yeonwi who spoke quite sharply with a soft voice.
Moyong-gun burst into laughter.
“It’s no different now. It’s just that my condition has changed. “People don’t change that easily.”
“It’s a shame.”
Prince Moyong filled Yeonwi’s cup.
“It’s fun. I’ve never even thought about having this conversation with you. “Even if their pursuits are different, it seems like they are both martial artists.”
“That’s right.”
“But it would be a shame to exchange drinks and gossip at this late hour.”
Yeonwi’s hand that was holding the glass stopped.
Moyong-gun coolly emptied his glass and continued speaking in a calm voice.
“I will cut off all the unnecessary comments and ask you directly.”
“Please speak.”
“Do you want to become the Murim Lord?”
“…?!”
What does this mean out of the blue?
Yeonwi put down her glass again and said with a stern expression.
“What do you mean?”
“why? “Was that a question you shouldn’t have asked?”
“….”
“This is not a question with any specific intention, so please answer honestly. Of course, it’s okay if you don’t answer, as it’s up to you to answer.”
Yeon-wi, who was looking at Moyong-gun, suddenly said something.
“I have no intention of becoming a Murim lord. “I don’t even have the ability to do that.”
“Are you thinking you’re not capable so you didn’t even pay attention? Or is the position of Murim lord itself a burden?”
“Both.”
“I guess so.”
“But why are you asking such a question out of the blue?”
“I want to become the Murim lord.”
“…I know.”
“Yes, you know.”
Moyong-gun filled his empty glass and continued speaking.
“But if it’s the current Murim Alliance, I have no intention of sitting in that position.”
“…!!”
