Episode 982.

After one hour of examination.
“….”
Six people gathered in a luxurious room.
A fragrant tea scent was rising, but no one touched the teacup.
The atmosphere was awkward.
It is a gathering where as many as five top experts of Kangho, who have broken through the undefeated stage, and even the owner of a famous family who hears the sound of Hebei’s defeat are gathered. Except for the Murim League, you will not be able to find a place where such amazing experts gather to drink tea.
Meanwhile, the atmosphere was awkward, which was spectacular in its own way.
Yangcheon, who had been looking at the place for a moment, stood up.
“I’m just going to get up now.”
Everyone except Master Muhe looked at Yang Chen.
Yang Cheon quenched his appetite.
“This is not a place where you can tolerate awkwardness. “If anyone needs to see me, please come visit me later.”
It is honest and plain speech.
Takmuja, who was silently looking at the people around him, suddenly burst into laughter.
Surprisingly, when he burst out laughing, the suffocatingly heavy air became light as if it were a lie. He was truly a powerhouse worthy of being called a giant of his time, as he could change the atmosphere with just a single laugh.
“You are the Great Master of the Dark Island. “I can tell what kind of person you are after hearing just a few words.”
“If you want to truly know what kind of person you are, you have to fight.”
“Hmm? Why does the conversation suddenly go that way?”
“Isn’t it true that scholars fight with brushes and warriors fight with swords? If you want to get to know each other well, you can just fight. “We all live in that world.”
Those were truly his words.
Master Muheo, who was looking at Ki Cheonwoong in silence, also burst into laughter.
“We don’t have swords, so we’ll have to use our fists to communicate. “Let’s create a separate space sometime soon.”
Yang Chen’s eyes spewed fire.
“It’s nothing but glory.”
Yang Chen wasn’t just trying to avoid the situation because it was awkward.
There is a reason why he earned the nickname ‘King of Fighting’. It was a nickname he earned not only because he was good at fighting, but also because he loved fighting so much.
From the first time they met, Yang Cheon felt a strong fighting spirit toward Gwon Shin and Geom Seon. No matter what the outcome was, I felt a surge of excitement in my heart that I had to aim my fist.
But that wasn’t the case. It was impossible to drag him into a fight in a place like this.
That’s why I’m leaving. I’m afraid I’ll make a mistake if I have more.
Pengmu Gang also quietly got up.
“Then I will go too.”
Zhuo Wuzi looked at Peng Wujiang with puzzled eyes.
“Why you?”
Paengmugang whetted his appetite.
“I thought I had enough strength to carry around anywhere in Hebuk, but now that I’m in here, my head keeps lowering. “I always felt like I wasn’t good enough, but now I even feel like I’m weak.”
“Hehehe!”
“Please speak well.”
“You too, don’t worry too much. “If you truly want to see the end, you will be able to build a reputation to succeed the Doge within the next dozen years.”
This is what the swordsman of the world says. This isn’t something I just say.
Peng Wugang’s face widened. In Takmuja’s opinion, doesn’t that mean that his studies have accumulated well?
“Thank you for those kind words.”
“Hurry up and pass this troublesome work on to your children and risk your life with a sword.”
“That wasn’t easy.”
“It won’t be easy. “But you can’t be there all the time, can you?”
“Of course it is. “In fact, I wanted to quickly throw away this position of head of the family.”
“Hehe, you too are a martial artist that can’t be helped. “You have a good personality and are cool, so even without competing, I can clearly see what path your sword will take.”
“I don’t know if it would be worth calling a confrontation.”
“Even if it’s a little slow, it’s good as long as it goes the right way. The important thing is not who climbed first. “It’s important to go up at any time.”
Peng Mu-gang bowed his head.
“Thank you for those kind words.”
Just like that, Yang Chen and Peng Mu-gang left.
Yeonwi also gently placed her hand on the armrest.
“Me too…”
“Can you please keep your seat?”
Takmuja’s words whetted Yeonwi’s appetite.
“I will, if you wish. However, I don’t think you have anything special to do with me…”
“Why don’t you have anything to do? “I have so much to do.”
“yes?”
Takmuja looked at Yeonwi with an amused expression.
“Didn’t you tell me that your son came to visit me?”
“Ah…”
“When I first saw him, I wondered what kind of seed this colt came from. Now that I see you, I understand. “A father and son were born with monstrous talents.”
Yeonwi laughed bitterly.
“He’s a little rough, but he’s a good guy. Please be kind to me.”
Even though he says he has great talent, he worries about his son first. From that alone, Tak Mu-ja knew very well what kind of person Yeon Wi was.
At that time, Ki Cheon-woong opened his mouth.

“Let’s stop talking about this and that.”
If Tak Mu-ja broke the heavy atmosphere with a single laugh, Ki Cheon-woong did the opposite.
His voice and his presence instantly cooled the softened air in the room.
“The two people who are the top adults of Kangho Martial Arts and who are called losers of the times, what business do they have for this person that they even created a position for him?”
He was not respected even by the emperor of a country. Aside from that, just looking at his age, he was not influenced by Master Muheo or Takmuja.
Master Muheo spoke in a calm voice.
“Shinhwa cult leader.”
“Please speak, O Lord of Shaolin.”
“Do you really have no intention of taking control of this central region?”
“Is that possible?”
Ki Cheon-woong said as if it were obvious.
“It would be a lie if I said there was no desire in my heart to conquer the central plains. “I can hold the world in my hands and manipulate it as I please… How fascinating is this?”
“As a result, many people will live impoverished lives.”
“It depends on how you rule.”
“Do you want to let that desire bloom into full bloom?”
Gi Cheon-woong laughed bitterly.
He drank his tea without saying anything more.
That look and that action alone were enough. He had already revealed his intentions to many people. I didn’t even want to repeat what I had just said about sitting in the same place as Ilshinilsen.
Master Muheo, who was quietly watching Ki Cheonwoong, asked once more.
“Have you come to join hands with the Jungwon Martial Arts and destroy the Three Religions?”
“no.”
“if?”
“I came to give freedom to this school.”
Master Muheo did not hear what purpose Ki Cheonwoong had for coming.
However, I was confident that at least his actions and his thoughts would not be toxic to the midfield.
It was not because Master Muheo was smart or could look into Ki Cheonwoong’s heart.
“Hmm.”
Master Mu He glanced at Yan Wei.
“There must be a reason why Gangdong’s divine sword, filled with a full sense of justice and great cooperation, did not risk his life to fight.”
Yeonwi’s face turned slightly red.
“That’s too much praise. “I’m just…”
“Please don’t say that I’m just a penman. “Everyone knows what a righteous person Yeonga-ju is.”
“I’m just embarrassed.”
Master Muheo’s face became serious again.
“Still, I want to hear it from your mouth again.”
“….”
“Enough about the three religions. No matter what the goal is, if we join hands, we will fight together. I just want to hear one word of confirmation. Are you willing to join forces with us and contribute to the future war?”
Gi Cheonwoong frowned.
“You can think as you please. Isn’t that what trading is like anyway? “We both want something from each other, so this deal is already done.”
“I will ask you one last question. Since this is the last time, I will also ask a more specific question.”
“….”
“Will you take charge of the Shinhwa Church?”
“Furthermore.”
A fire lit up in Ki Cheon-woong’s eyes.
“The leader of the Four Eums is also mine.”
Master Muheo’s face relaxed.
Takmuja said with a grin.
“Look, it’s here. “The answer has been found.”
“I know too. Still, how can you do ‘that’ if you don’t hear it said directly? “It may be a matter for Binseung alone, but the safety of the world is at stake.”
Yan Wei looked at Master Muhe with puzzled eyes.
“What do you mean by that?”
“haha.”
Ambassador Muheo burst out laughing softly and buried his back in his chair.
Comfortable posture. Eyes were still focused on Ki Cheonwoong.
“It’s very unstable.”
“….”
“Your top battle. Even if it is distorted, it is not easy for it to be distorted that badly.”
Gi Cheon-woong frowned.
Takmuja nodded and said.
“I wondered if there were other people like me in the world, but I never thought there would be people worse than me.”
“What does that mean?”
In response to Gi Cheon-woong’s question, Tak Mu-ja tapped his head with his index finger.
“Your situation and Bindo’s situation are similar. “Isn’t the top division ruined?”
“…!!”
Gi Cheon-woong, whose spiritual vision was not only blurred but also whose energy flow was unruly, did not notice that Tak Mu-ja was in a similar situation to himself.
Takmuja laughed bitterly.
“But in order not to lose what I have, I practiced cultivation at Seonsan for a long time. “If it hadn’t been for the magical energy unleashed by my ancestors, I don’t know if I would have reached a similar point as you.”
“Then now…?”
Zhuo Wuzi looked at Master Muhe and said.
“With this power, I am blocking the leakage of the Sangdan Shinki.”
“…?!”
“Of course not forever. Let alone forever, if you inject it once, it will last for 15 days. “If you fight with a warrior of the same level, that period will be significantly shortened.”
Ki Cheonwoong looked at Master Muheo with an expression of astonishment.
“You blocked a hole in the top battle? “Is something like that possible?”
Ambassador Muheo chuckled.
“I won’t say that Shaolin’s martial arts are the best in the world. However, since each faction has different histories and studies, things that are impossible for you are possible for us, and you can do things that we could not even dream of.”
“….”
“Isn’t that what studying is all about?”
Ki Cheon-woong clenched his fists without realizing it.
The collapsed Sangsangjeon can be restored, even if only for a moment. The power was quickly lost, but the important thing was that it was somehow possible.
“then…?”
“exactly. “The reason I wanted to get a confirmation from you is because if you really want to join forces with us and lead this war, we need to at least lay the foundation so that you can fight and win so that you can move properly.”
“…!”
“Is that… really possible?”
“Your Sangdanjeon is much more devastated than Malco here. “I’ll have to try it myself to know for sure, but I think it should be possible.”
“then…!”
“You can hear more about His Majesty later, so let’s put it aside for now.”
“…?”
“There are conditions.”
Gi Cheon-woong nodded.
It was natural. I don’t know if it was a trick or a martial arts technique, but I couldn’t have taken such a big step with my bare mouth.
Master Muheo’s eyes deepened.
“If you agree to the conditions, we can begin the procedure right here and now.”
“What are the conditions?”
“Please go to the Murim League.”
“…what?”
Not only Ki Cheon-ung but also Yeon Wi looked at Master Mu He in surprise.
Master Muheo spoke with strength in each word.
“Please go to the Murim Alliance and become another Musang. In other words, I am asking you to become a member of the Murim Alliance, not a member of the imperial palace.”
