Side Story Episode 28
Departure Ceremony
Seomrang put down his chopsticks and expressed his gratitude to the old woman.
“Elder, I had a good meal.”
The old woman, who was watching with joy as she happily ate everything, asked cautiously.
“I don’t know if it suits Confucius’ taste.”
Seomrang smiled with satisfaction.
“Don’t get hit. Not long ago, I tried royal cuisine and believed that there was no other dish in the world that could impress me as much, but the old man’s cooking was a cold-blooded dish that reminded me of my hometown… … I’m sorry, my hometown is different from everyone else’s. Anyway, it was a taste of warm affection.”
“… … !”
The old woman’s eyes widened.
Comparing and praising heavenly royal cuisine!
It’s a bit of a strange metaphor, but isn’t it the highest praise I’ve ever heard in my life?
“No, you are very upset. “How can you give such excessive praise?”
“It’s true. Why is Cheolwol clinging to this spot like a leech? “It’s because of the old man’s cooking skills.”
The person who had suddenly become an example refuted.
“Cheolwol is not a leech attached to a spot, but an empty guest who guards the Namyang Jangga.”
“Elder, did you hear? “Do not deny the latter part.”
“My sister’s cooking is delicious. Cheolwol guarantees it.”
“Look. Seniors are the best. “The only person who can hold a cilantro the size of Cheolwol for over 20 years, not with a knife, but with cooking, is an old man.”
Seomrang was not the only one who thought this way.
Both the demons and the beggars were shaking their heads.
The old woman looked around at them with tears in her eyes, and her son gently encouraged them.
“Mother, everyone has eaten enough, so please take a break. “Soja, I will take these people with me to the village.”
“no. It’s still not enough. Mom, please show a little more skill.”
Seomrang refused.
“No, this is enough. “If you eat too much, you may lose concentration and get into trouble.”
Concentration comes out of nowhere?
The old woman was confused and trembled slightly.
Don’t the sturdy men who helped with the cooking, sweating so hard that you feel bad for being prejudiced against them due to their hideous appearance, suddenly give off a terrifying aura that matches their appearance?
Jang gently hugged her surprised mother and whispered to her.
“When Confucius spoke of the mindset of a warrior, it is just the warriors who protect him, so don’t pay attention to it.”
“ah! I committed such a disgraceful act without even knowing it was happening. Confucius, I’m sorry.”
“With something like that. I’ll stop. good bye.”
Jang opened the door wide as if to tell him to get out.
Seomrang grinned and took a step forward, and the demons radiated blade-like force and greeted their master.
When Jang Yi and Lee Gwan-hwi took the lead and gestured, the Waryongdang warriors who were waiting immovably outside opened the way.
The sharp gaze of the Waryongdang warriors was focused on Seomrang.
Seomrang paid no heed to him and walked down the road with the demons.
It was a sight as if an arrogant tiger was leading a group of fierce wolves.
The old woman looked at the back of the young man she had sympathized with, thinking he was a crazy person, and remembered a person’s face.
‘Now that I think about it, we look a lot alike. Are you really Eunkong’s disciple?’
Right or not.
For some reason, it was a shame to let it go like this.
“Confucius! “I have some beef jerky that Eun-gong likes. Would you like some?”
As soon as she finished speaking, Seomrang’s face appeared in front of the old woman’s nose.
“Achacha. I almost forgot that important thing. “I’ll eat well, old man.”
* * *
As Jang Yi walked away, he glanced back at Seomrang and narrowed his eyes.
‘It’s worse than I heard. It’s not like the leader of a Demonic Cult.’
A man who can be said to be the devil of devils is chewing beef jerky and wandering around.
I believed that he would not have as ruthless a personality as the Duke of Eun, but isn’t he very different from the vicious demons he fought in Kunlun Mountain?
Lee Kwan-hwi noticed Jang-i’s confused mind and sent a message.
– Daehyeop, you need to throw away your preconceptions.
-I’m trying to do that, but it’s not working. More than rumors. What kind of person are you?
Lee Kwan-hwi thought for a moment and smiled bitterly.
-Honestly, I don’t know.
-You’re famous for being good at looking at people, so you don’t know?
-I have nothing to say to you as I am a completely unpredictable person. Sorry for not being of much help.
Jang Yi was not disappointed, but rather happy.
-No. It was a great help.
-What do you mean?
-Eungong was also an unpredictable person. He must have met someone who looked like him and reaped the benefits.
Lee Kwan-hwi’s eyes trembled as if they were twitching.
-Isn’t this a walking natural disaster? I became more anxious.
-It’s all like that at first. You’ll get used to it soon.
– Is that really true?
-I’ll be honest. It might take some time.
-… … That’s a great consolation.

Lee Kwan-hwi’s shoulders slumped.
-It’s okay if you don’t get used to it, so I hope nothing bad happens.
-Same goes for me. While we’re at it, let’s check it out.
-How do you mean?
The method was simple.
Jang slowed his pace for a moment, kept pace with Seomrang, and opened his mouth.
“It seems to me that you and Eun-gong have a very similar personality. What do you think, Su Jiao-ju?”
Seomrang smiled brightly and boasted.
“This is it, everyone says so. Well, it looks the same to me.”
A faint smile appeared on Jang Yi’s face.
“You’re welcome. “Now I can guide you with confidence.”
“haha. Were you worried that I might cause trouble in the Murim Alliance over the pot? “I’m glad you’re relieved now.”
“Mistress Su, I think you misunderstood what I said.”
Jang explained calmly.
“I’m not counting on you not to make a fuss. Even if something like that happens, I believe that it will end well in the end, just like Eun-gong always did.”
“Oh oh! “There was a seed of mine in the Murim Alliance.”
Seomrang was very happy and scolded Lee Kwan-hwi.
“Hey, you small group. Did you see that Master Jang looked right through me? Learn something, so you will be better at hunting in the future.”
“… … “Please take note.”
Lee Kwan-hwi shook his head and argued with Jang Yi.
-Have you confirmed this? How can I feel safe?
-There is no way Eun-gong will take away someone who talks nonsense.
-… … When you say that, I’m at a loss for words.
Lee Kwan-hwi sighed, then his face hardened.
-I hope other people think like us.
Unfortunately, that wasn’t the case.
As soon as they entered the Murim Alliance, many warriors from the political faction poured out their deadly force and were on guard against Seomrang and the demons.
In a situation like this, how could the demons remain silent?
I responded by living the same way.
Naturally, the atmosphere was bound to become harsh.
As time passed, more and more people gathered, and it got to the point where Seomrang and the Waryongdang warriors surrounding them could no longer move.
The moment when Jang Yi, who commands the Waryongdang warriors, steps forward and shouts for everyone to step back.
Seomrang was impressed.
“As expected, political factions are different. “If you have murderous intentions, you should take action right away. Why are you just watching and expecting someone else to start first?”
“… … !”
Everyone gaped.
No, there has to be a certain level of provocation.
Isn’t it like pouring oil into boiling water?
Extreme anger welled up in the hearts of the Jeongpamu people, burning out all their absurd thoughts.
“The demons must be killed prematurely, so Waryongdang brothers, get out of the way!”
“Did you think I would endure such an insult! “Don’t make excuses for being ambushed later, but quickly draw out your weapons!”
The demons tried not to refuse, but Seomrang stopped them.
“Do you feel bitter when you see blood on someone else’s feast day? “Hold on.”
“… … .”
Who on earth is telling whom to put up with?
A middle-aged man shouted among the amazed political faction members.
“This is the one who is holding on! The leader of the demons must apologize immediately! If you don’t comply, I, Yojihwangeom (搖之幻劍) Anjung, will take the lead in fighting!”
Seomrang looked at him and was very happy.
“yo. this! ji! ring! knife! You are the person who values relationships and recommends grain tea, right? “It is an honor to see you alive and well.”
My eyes widened.
“Do you know me?”
“Sure. “Uncle Zhao talked so much.”
“Da-seolbeomhyeop, are you talking about me? “I am truly honored.”
“It’s nice because it’s an honor for both of us.”
The political faction members, who were amazed while listening to the conversation between the two, came to their senses and started to get angry.
A woman’s calm voice echoed throughout the hall.
“The Lord is waiting for guests from Xinjiang. “Let’s decide what’s right or wrong later and open the way.”
I was surprised to see a middle-aged woman with beautiful eyes.
“Why are Zhuge soldiers here?”
Seomrang expressed his gratitude to Anjung.
“Thank you for the explanation, Daehyeop. “Soldier Zhuge, you are the person who was called Ji Feng (知鳳) in the past, right?”
Zegalin admitted.
“exactly.”
“Please speak comfortably.”
“You can’t do that to Su Jiaoju, who visited the main alliance on behalf of Xinjiang. This way, let’s go.”
Seomrang shrugged his shoulders and headed towards where Zhugelin was standing.
Although the political faction members glared harshly at Seomrang, they split to the left and right to open the way.
Xuan Lang passed through that road with his party and followed Zhuge Lin.
How far did it go like that?
Seomrang, who had been walking quietly, suddenly spoke.
“It’s different from what I heard.”
“What do you mean?”
“I heard that the Murim Alliance had a sloppy command system, but a word from the soldier opened the way.”
“Thanks to your school.”
“What do you mean?”
Zhugelin’s voice became sharper.
“I mean, it’s a change that occurred after going through the Great War. Do you understand now?”
“It seems like that won’t work, so the rules have become stricter.”
Seomrang smiled and continued speaking.
“Don’t act angry. “You’re not the type of person to get this excited.”
Zegalin’s voice returned to its original calm tone.
“Did Zhao Grand Council evaluate me like that?”
“yes. “Except when someone grabs your hair and pulls it.”
“… … As expected, you have too much tongue. “What did you think of the leader?”
“He doesn’t like farming and doesn’t know how to do it. “He said he becomes more reliable as time goes by.”
“That’s the perfect expression.”
Zhugelin nodded and then asked in passing.
“What about the Supreme Prosecutors’ Office?”
“He is a talented person who comes from a famous family and has systematically learned home appliance martial arts since he walked on his own two feet.”
“I don’t think that’s the end.”
Seomrang tilted his head.
“well. “I remember you saying that I am a martial artist who trains so crazy that the great master sometimes stops me.”
“I should have said it earlier. Zhao Daxia has many tongues.”
Seomrang eventually raised both hands.
“Qualities recognized by great people and the fighting spirit to relentlessly attack great people. To put it simply, they praised it because it had everything.”
“Now it makes sense.”
Zhuge Lin turned his head and looked straight at Xuan Lang.
“You came to our headquarters to fight such a genius. So Kyoju, are you confident that you are an expert as good as the Paekwonjinhyeop?”
Seomrang scratched the back of his head and made an embarrassed expression.
“It’s a little hard to say it with my own mouth. “I’m better.”
“… … .”
“this. Looking at your eyes, I see that you are quick-witted. Okay, let’s be honest. “I am a genius.”
“… … “Let’s go quickly.”
“uh? “You don’t believe me now?”
“Hurry up. “The leader is waiting.”
Jegalin guided Seomrang and his party to the grand banquet hall.
There were a lot of people gathered there, and a high platform on one side caught my eye.
And there, the famous monks of the Jeongpa martial arts group were sitting in a row, and the person sitting in the center stood up and greeted Seomrang.
“Are you the leader of the Heavenly Demon Church?”
“yes. “Are you the leader?”
A middle-aged man with strong bones held his hand powerfully.
“I am Paeng Kang-woong, the leader. “Welcome to our headquarters.”
Seomrang also politely bowed.
“It’s Seomrang. Please take care of me.”
“Come up first.”
“Everything?”
“Just you. “Those who came with us should use the tent next to us.”
Since it was inevitable due to distribution, Seomrang obediently followed.
“You guys, don’t cause trouble and stay calm. “See you later, this small cooperative.”
The demons, including Yeon Gyu-seo and Dan Seong-oh, went to the open tent and watched all around with their eyes shining.
Lee Kwan-hwi was going to a place where there were a lot of people, but when an old beggar with a stocky physique greeted him with a wave of his hand, he turned the new model and headed in another direction.
As Seomrang looked down with a puzzled expression, the old beggar sitting next to him trembled and clicked his tongue.
“Tsk tsk. I can’t believe you’re still like that. “It’s too bad it didn’t become big.”
Seomrang also agreed.
“This small cooperative is a bit like that.”
The old beggar frowned.
“Are you insulting my son-in-law now?”
“uh? “Then would you like an open room?”
“Yes, I am Yanghoe.”
Seomrang also clicked his tongue.
“Tsk tsk. “Thank you for your hard work.”
“What do you mean by that?”
“Since Yu Dae-hyeop, who became the successor to the throne, was upset about the opening of the country and made a fuss about getting married, the Ark is still suffering… … .”
“conflict! “Who would say something like that!”
“no?”
“Okay. done.”
“I don’t think it happened. “I heard that this small cooperative has no intention of continuing to be a beggar?”
“No, these are real!”
“But how did this small cooperative become beggars?”
“It’s all my luck.”
“yes?”
“I went to visit Yunwu of Hebei Bunta Province, who had a small relationship with my father… … The guy he saw earlier and was disgusted with is Yunwoo. Anyway, that guy said he wanted to become a martial artist and learn martial arts, so he tried to teach me how to do it, so Yunwoo decided to teach him a lesson.”
“So?”
“Since we taught martial arts in the main room, the main room should take responsibility. “I thought his qualifications were useful, so I accepted him as Jeongpung’s disciple.”
Seomrang opened his mouth wide.
“Wow! “I can’t believe you would defraud an innocent child like that.”
“What a fraud!”
“Tell me honestly. You did it because you coveted the qualities of this small cooperative, right? After all, what kind of person would want to become a beggar himself?”
“What a beggar!”
“Shh. Please be quiet. “I guess the event is about to start.”
It wasn’t fun.
The Murim Lord Paeng Kang-woong stepped to the center of the podium, raised his energy, and shouted.
“Thank you for gathering here! An unexpected guest may have a lot of questions, but things come first and last! From now on, the bloodless troupe departure ceremony will begin! “The bloodless group should come into the main performance hall and go up to the stage!”
“Waaah!”
A group of people opened the door and came in amidst the cheers of countless people.
There was no one who was not an expert, but Seomrang’s eyes were fixed on the beautiful woman in the lead.
The same goes for women.
Myeongsook and others looked at Seomrang.
That’s how the two people’s eyes met.
At the same time, they smiled.
‘We finally met!’
martial arts,
