Episode 892
Mado’s Hometown (5)
The group’s departure took place quietly in the dark of the night.
If it’s natural, it’s natural. This is a special operation led by Sobuju of Mukryongbu, who came as an extraordinary and plenipotentiary ambassador. At least on the outside, the Murim League was not the main group, so the less people saw it, the better.
Shinmarim has three members, including Cheon Hyo-rak, his warrior guard, and the coachman who drives Hwahyang’s carriage.
Starting with Yeon Ho-jeong, there are eight martial arts unions, including Makwon Dang-gwan, Paeyul Muk-bi, and Bu-seon’s transcendental masters, and Yeon Ji-pyeong and Ok-cheong, who are still lacking but have exceptional talent.
There were a total of 11 people in the party opening the White Tiger Gate, the western gate of Maeng.
As the road to Cheonghae Fortress was long and they did not know how bloody the action would be there, their steps forward were not very light.
* * *
With Cheon Hyorak riding in the carriage, Makwon and Mukbi Paeyul Okcheong took their places at the front, while Yeonhojeong, Buseon Danggwan, and Yeonjipyeong took their places at the rear.
The arrangement was to divide the group of eight masters into two groups.
Although it was the front, the four people with Mak Won as the chairperson were two groups, and the back four people with Yeon Hojeong as the chairperson were one group.
Their movements were smooth.
Although there were times when we rested due to the horse’s physical strength, no one in the group had any problems with physical strength.
Among them, Yeon Ji-pyeong and Okcheong were the weakest in simple terms, but Yeon Ji-pyeong had extremely high physical strength thanks to Yeon Wi’s strict teachings and his own fanatical training.
Okcheong experienced numerous battles as a member of the Uijeonggun, and was full of the experience of marching without sleep for several days as well as the strong endurance unique to a shaman.
A speed that is not too fast but not too slow, but not too slow.
The group, who did not have any conversation with each other, was only able to enter Shaanxi after 10 days.
“It’s strange.”
A group of people taking a break on the roadside.
The group sat deliberately spaced apart from each other. Since each player is a very unique expert, this was to get them used to acting together with their group.
Surprisingly, it was Okcheong’s suggestion, and it was a very natural measure considering his experience of fighting numerous battles as part of a unit.
And everyone accepted Okcheong’s proposal.
The power of a master who can split the sky and break rocks is great, but if one does not feel a proper sense of belonging, the power of the group is bound to weaken.
Okcheong’s ability to point out what Yeonhojeong could not point out shone from the beginning.
“It was a fairly leisurely move, but this is strangely difficult again.”
The doctor’s voice as he trimmed his nails with a knife was quite leisurely, contrary to the content.
Yeon Ho-jeong said with a smile.
“When moving from one region to another, members of the martial arts tribe use divine methods or become immersed in something in order to practice. That’s why there’s less time to be bored than you think.”
“You are right. Just sitting on a horse and running isn’t that boring. “Oh, give me some beef jerky.”
“Here you go.”
The official started eating the beef jerky.
The ability of martial people to control their metabolism is on a different level from that of ordinary people. If you put your mind to it, you can survive for several days with just one meal.
Naturally, the higher the level achieved, the more the ability shines. This is because if the density of true energy in the body is high, there are no major problems with movement even without external nutrition.
Of course, it’s only ‘possible’, but in reality, it’s better to eat all your meals like any other normal person. However, when traveling for such a long time, the ability of the martial people was to control their own metabolism and travel further with minimal meals.
“It’s been a while since I chewed it, and it tastes good.”
“A person who lived a life worthy of a king in Sacheon is moved by just one piece of beef jerky.”
“Everything you eat when you’re hungry is a feast. “Anyway…”
the official asked in a passing tone.
“Shouldn’t we share some information soon?”
Up to this point, the group had not had any public or private conversations except for minimal conversation.
But now it’s different.
You might think it’s something you don’t have to listen to until you reach Cheonghae Castle, but the museum didn’t think that way.
“Shaanxi is connected to Gansu. After Gansuk, I have to ask for help. There are still thousands of miles left to go, but
just in case…” The official glanced at the carriage.
“If that suspicious idiot came with a tail, wouldn’t an unexpected fight be possible?”
“If that were the case, we would have fought a long time ago.”
“Are you kidding me? No matter how many people treat Demon Seon as their master, they won’t underestimate the power of the Murim Alliance, right? “There’s no way we wouldn’t know that if we dare to be active in the territory of the Murim Alliance, we’ll be the only ones suffering losses.”
It was a reasonable thought.
Yeon Ho-jeong shrugged his shoulders.
“It’s the same in Shaanxi.”
“Of course, Shaanxi Island can be said to be Meng’s territory. “What’s more, there are volcanoes and Jongnam.”
“That’s right.”
“But the atmosphere in Shaanxi Wulin is not the same as it used to be due to the Zongnan War. “Jongnam’s power has been greatly reduced, and although Hwasan remains healthy, it has lost a lot of the power it sent to Jongnam.”
The official’s eyes sparkled.
“It can be quite dangerous if you rush to your death.”
“The likelihood that they will be active in Shaanxi is almost the same as the likelihood that they will be active in Henan Province.”
“Why do you think that?”
“As you said, it hasn’t been long since the Jongnam War broke out. “The power of Shaanxi Wulin itself has weakened, but the tension is still strong.”
It refers to information power.
Whether it was Hwasan, Jongnam, or the Shaanxi branch of Openness, their eyes were wide open.
Shaanxi was one of the few regions that could be attacked directly from the north. This means that although the path is limited, once it is opened, we can experience another war.
The chances of penetrating such a place’s extremely advanced information power are not high at all. Even if they come in, they will have to deal with the anger of the martial arts group that has soared to the point where there is nowhere to go.
Making the opponent angry and creating a loophole was one of the tactics, but the Murim Alliance’s power was too powerful to provoke hastily.
What if you make a provocation now that the Murim Lord appointment ceremony is approaching?
At that time, all the martial arts people in Baekdo will turn Cheonghae Fortress into a wasteland.
A handshake that touches emotions before reason. If that happens, Shinmarim will also fall into a state of extreme tension.
It was a tactic that could never be used, especially since Cheon Hyo-rak, from Shinmarim, was in the midfield.

“I know what you mean, but there are variables in the world.”
The official’s voice became slightly quieter.
“If by chance the Shinmarim is joining hands with the Three Religions, they could use a move that touches Shaanxi one more time.”
The official was speaking without hesitation about the thoughts that everyone who watched Jungkook had in their head at least once.
Yes. If they knew the base of Shinmarim, it was a group that the three religions could have easily touched.
In fact, it will be easier to touch than Moorim.
It was inferred that he would have even taken control of Soroeumsa, which was said to be a powerful force in the martial arts world. Aside from that, I don’t know the ability of the three religions to have absorbed numerous sects, but if they had overwhelmed Shinmarim, they would have been overwhelmed.
“If that’s the case, Shinmarim will even be unable to deploy demons into Shaanxi.”
“why?”
“Because we will use people other than Mine.”
“huh?!”
Yeon Ho-jeong nodded.
“I agree with the head of the family that information needs to be shared. “Everything I said was just a possibility, so it’s time to think about it.”
The official grumbled.
“Why did you bring up such a long story anyway?”
“Because you need to know.”
“hmm?”
“Wouldn’t you like to know what the team leader is thinking so that you can lead the team if a problem arises?”
The official laughed.
“It looks like he made a very big deal out of using the owner of the Tang clan of the world as his assistant.”
“When will I ever again have you as my subordinate?”
“Think of it as a partnership, not as a subordinate. “I have no intention of acting like a dog under anyone.”
The official stood up.
“I’ll ask you to get together.”
“no.”
Yeon Ho-jeong saw the carriage.
“It seems like that nobleman had the same thoughts as the head of the Tang family.”
Rattling.
The carriage door opened and Cheon Hyo-rak appeared.
He had never come out of the carriage except three or four times.
Cheon Hyo-rak looked around the group and said.
“I have something to tell you.”
After a while.
Indeed, for the first time in a long time, one group and two groups came together.
Yeon Ho-jeong said.
“Is it time?”
Cheon Hyorak smiled bitterly.
“If you say that, wouldn’t it mean that I withheld this or that information on purpose?”
“You never know.”
The official snorted.
“I couldn’t believe it because it looked like it had eaten a hundred boiled snakes.”
Hwahyang’s eyes turned cruel.
Cheon Hyorak stopped Hwahyang with a wave of his hand and said.
“Thank you for your words. It means that you have lived well so far.”
“what?”
“I grew up in an environment where I couldn’t survive without pretending to be a snake.”
The party became completely dumb.
Makwon, who was leaning against a tree with his arms crossed, said.
“I heard that the Demonic Murim adheres to the principle of strong self-respect more than any other force in the central plains.”
“you’re right. No, that would be correct. “I haven’t looked into all the sects of the Jungwon Wurim.”
“A world where the strong are eaten and the weak are eliminated. “I was really curious about how you, who were carrying the death penalty in such a world, managed to survive until now.”
Cheon Hyorak glanced at Hwahyang.
“Thanks to our trustworthy escort, we were able to overcome many dangers.”
“Was it an easy place to get through with just one escort?”
“Of course not. However, there is no other company that can be trusted as much as this at a critical moment.”
“You look like a good gentleman. So what do you have to say?”
Cheon Hyorak, who was quietly looking around at the group, took a deep breath.
“You all came running here with me without even hearing the details of the situation. “I am truly grateful, but I also had a lot of trouble knowing how much I should say.”
That would have to be the case.
I have come to ask for help from the Murim Alliance, and in order to do so, I must clearly inform them of the current situation of Shinmarim. That way, the probability of success increases.
However, Cheon Hyorak was clearly a Shinmarim person, so he could not reveal all the information, even for the sake of the future.
Common sense says so.
And that very thought made Cheon Hyorak change his mind. This was because it was judged to be a situation that could not be overcome with common sense.
“Before we get started, I think I should tell you my secret personal information.”
“Master?!”
Despite Hwa-hyang’s surprised voice, Cheon Hyo-rak’s expression remained calm.
“You probably know that the owner of Shinmarim is Lord Hyeokryeonhwi Hyeokryeon Lim, who is called Maseon in the Central Plains.”
“exactly.”
“Wrong.”
“hmm?”
“The real name of my teacher, Shinmarimju, is not Hyeokryeonhwi but Cheoningeol.”
“…?!”
“And one of the three religions, Gwanghyeolgyo (狂血敎), has been headed by the Cheon family for generations.”
Everyone in the group, even Yeon Ho-jeong, widened their eyes in surprise.
Cheon Hyorak closed his eyes.
“Shinmarim is a group that broke away from Gwanghyeolgyo.”
