Episode 661 Who is this touching? (One)
“Meeting Jang Mun-in.”
Paengak, who was polite, greeted King Hyeonjong in front of him. Then he slowly turned his gaze to face Tanggunak.
“You’ve been on a high level, Lord Dangga.”
“It seems like it’s been a while since I last saw you.”
Tang Gunak slightly nodded with a serious expression.
Since the Hebei Paeng family and the Sichuan Dang family belong to the same five generations, there was bound to be some kind of traffic. So Tanggunak was already acquainted with Paengak.
“I think it feels very different from when I saw you at Sacheondanga.”
“Is that so?”
It was an insinuation that Sacheondangga, a member of the Five Great Families, was sitting here without any other consultation, but Tanggunak ignored Paengak’s words without any sign of embarrassment.
Paengak’s eyes darkened slightly.
‘I don’t know what you’re thinking.’
I felt it before, but Tang Gunak was definitely not an easy person to deal with.
“first of all… … .”
At that time, Hyeonjong opens his mouth first.
“I know you came first, but I am grateful that you gave up your turn and waited.”
“No, Jang Mun-in.”
Paengak shook his head.
“That’s because we have a lot to share, so you don’t have to worry about it.”
“I have a lot to share… … .”
Hyeonjong smiled lightly.
I’ve already met a few of those who came to represent the nine factions and the five generations, but most of them only gave light congratulations and didn’t reveal their true feelings.
“It’s a pleasure.”
“well. I do not know. “I wonder if this is something he would be willing to do.”
Paengak smiled bitterly and turned to Tanggunak.
“Creating a blind eye is a good thing. “It could be a breath of fresh air for Gangho, which has been stuck in the old factions and the five major factions.”
Tanggunak looked at Paengak in silence.
“The Lord of the House of Lords probably doesn’t know how big of an impact this will have.”
“… … .”
Paengak’s gaze was indeed sharp.
“The head of the Hebei Paeng family is also expressing great concern about the party’s movements. No matter what the family lord’s intentions are, wouldn’t it be seen from the outside that the Tang family is breaking away from the Five Great Families and making enemies of the Tianyu Meng?”
The corners of Tanggunak’s mouth, who had been silent the whole time, curled up slightly.
“It doesn’t seem that way.”
“… … yes?”
“There’s nothing wrong with that.”
Paengak could not hide his bewildered expression at the unexpected answer.
“Are you serious?”
“The head of the family is not a very great person, but he is not in a position where he can easily tell lies.”
Pangak’s eyes fluttered at the calm yet serious answer.
“So, are you now declaring that the Sichuan Tang Family will withdraw from the Five Great Families?”
“If I have to declare it, I should declare it.”
Tanggunak responded with a calm gaze. Those eyes seemed to pierce my body.
Paengak’s face hardened in an instant. If the person who said those words had not been a member of the Tang military, he had an expression that would have shouted at him at any moment.
The position of the head of the Sacheon Dang family and the dignity of a man named Tang Gun-ak were so oppressing that he could not dare to act rashly.
Hyeonjong, who was observing Paengak’s expression, quietly pushed the teacup in front of him.
“It’s Yunnan tea. “It won’t be a bad thing to control your mind.”
Paengak chewed his lips and looked at the teacup. Looking at the steaming tea, he immediately lowered his head slightly.
“sorry. “I was a little excited.”
Hyeonjong smiled.
“Who can blame you for being excited about your family? “Never mind.”
Tanggunak coldly oppresses him, while Hyeonjong gently releases him.
Paengak sighed. Even he, the elder of the Paeng family, was at a loss in front of this union, but it was not difficult to imagine how the heads of ordinary small and medium-sized sects must have felt here.
‘It’s not normal.’
The Panga had also known about the existence of Cheonwoomaeng from a long time ago. Nevertheless, the reason he did not pay much attention was because he believed that it would be impossible to destroy the strongholds of the Gu Filebang and the Five Daesega even if the Tang family and Hwasan united.
If Cheon Yu-maeng ends up being a miserable failure, the status of the Tang family in the five major families will also fall significantly. Then, since the Paeng family would benefit, there was no reason for him to come forward and make a fuss.
one.
‘Who would have imagined that things would change so much in just a few months?’
The words, “I’m in a bad situation,” were meaningless.
Even so, the reputation of the volcano soared literally to the sky. And that in just a few months.
Since he had quelled the Nokrim Rebellion and won the battle with the shaman, the world was sure to see an uproar in the name of Hwasan.
‘furthermore… … .’
Recently, we have heard that Huashan has started trade with the North Sea, and isn’t there even talk that the North Sea Ice Palace is joining the Tianwu Meng?
What even Shaolin couldn’t do was the North Sea. If the rumor was true, it was clear that the volcano’s status would rise even higher than it is now.
“Dang family lord.”
Paengak sighed and continued speaking.
“As you know, we are people who don’t know how to talk back.”
“I know it well.”
Tanggunak held the sue.

Among the five major families, the one most famous for being impatient is Paengga. The other clans politely greeted each other and tried to observe the situation for now, but just by looking at the way Paengga started talking as soon as they met, you could guess how impatient his temper was.
“Until now, Kang Ho had thought of the Cheonwu Meng as nothing more than a union of factions from the western part of the central plains.”
“That wouldn’t be so wrong.”
Tang Gunak spoke calmly. But Paengak did not back down easily.
“Even if it is the same alliance, its meaning changes depending on who participates. And even if the same people participate, wouldn’t the status of the union change depending on their status?”
“That is correct.”
“Currently, the status of Cheonwoomaeng is excessively high.”
Paengak made a faint groaning sound and then continued speaking.
“The head of the Peng family is concerned that the presence of Cheon Yu-maeng will shake up the quiet Gangho.”
Tanggunak’s eyes were still fixed on Paengak quietly.
“You said a little while ago that Elder Paeng doesn’t know how to change his mind, but it seems like Elder Paeng isn’t like that.”
“… … .”
“What you are worried about right now is not the chaos of the Gangho, but the fact that the Gangho is divided into two and they end up fighting each other?”
“that… … .”
Tang Gunak shook his head without even waiting for an answer.
“I am well aware of my family’s concerns, but I have no intention of breaking my will just because of that.”
“if… … Are you really saying that you will be hostile to the Nine Sects and the Five Great Families?”
When Paengak questioned him again, King Hyeonjong, who had been listening quietly, opened his mouth on behalf of Tanggunak.
“That statement is a little strange.”
“… … “What do you mean?”
“How can joining the Five Generations mean hostility with the Five Generations?”
“… … .”
“Creating an alliance other than the nine factions and the five generations does not mean that we will be hostile to the nine factions and the five generations. According to what you said, aren’t the nine factions and the five generations also hostile to each other?”
“That’s not what I said… … .”
“Elder.”
Hyeonjong smiled and gently cut off Paengak’s horse.
“Bondo believes that Cheonwoomaeng’s presence will be helpful to Gangho. “For that purpose, I am Cheon Woo-maeng.”
“… … .”
“What you’re worried about won’t happen, so you don’t have to worry too much.”
The words were so soft and smooth that it was difficult to refute them any further.
However, there was a firmness within him that made it impossible for him to say anything else. In the end, there was nothing Pangak could do other than sigh.
“I understood Jang Moon-in’s meaning well. “I also understood the matriarch’s intentions.”
“I’m glad you know.”
“But as you know, strength is not something that can be achieved through will alone. No matter what the intentions of the two of you are, Kang Hao will not look at Tian Yu-meng with such kind eyes.”
“… … .”
“Please understand that I say this without any malice. Perhaps the existence of this meng will lead to the downfall of Hwasan and Tang family.”
Tang Gunak’s eyes darkened at the outspoken words.
However, Hyeonjong only smiled after hearing those words.
“Thank you for your concern.”
“… … .”
“But in this world, there is a path that must be taken even if it is difficult. Even if you have to endure unparalleled hardship, how can you hesitate if it is a path you must walk?”
Paengak could not continue speaking and looked at Hyeonjong.
“Rather than that, tell Matriarch Fang. The door of Cheonwoomaeng is always open, and its composition is not necessarily limited to the sects in the western part of the central plains. “If you change your mind, please come visit me at any time.”
“… … “I will tell you exactly what you say.”
Paengak silently held his hand from where he sat.
“Once again, congratulations on the birth of a new team. “Our family will stay here until the opening ceremony is over, and then we will say hello again and then leave.”
“If you do, it would be perfect. Please also express my gratitude to the head of the Paeng family for honoring the occasion.”
“yes. then.”
Paengak got up and headed outside. Still, I looked back at the closed door as if I still had some regrets.
‘It’s Hyeonjong… … .’
Tanggunak is strong. He is a person who needs no further description.
Of course, strength is a good thing. Because a river is a place where the strong rule. However, the problem was that the Tang military evil was not only inaction but also had a strong nature.
Those who are recklessly strong are bound to cause strife. If the leader of Cheonwoo Maeng was Tanggunak, Paengak would not have been particularly worried about the existence of Cheonwoo Maeng.
He is an unprecedented person who completely dominates and revives a family that is related by blood, but he is not a person who can unite those who have different interests.
but… … .
‘volcano… … . ‘It’s a volcano.’
Hyeonjong is different.
Even though Paengak continued to spit out quite sharp words at first sight, King Hyeonjong never once lost his gentleness.
A person who develops a great power and ascends to the position of the leader will naturally have no choice but to put strength in his shoulders. Even if you’re not like that on a regular basis, you’ll quickly get used to people around you praising and flattering you, and you’ll listen to small criticisms with disdain.
However, Hyeonjong dealt with him in a humble manner from beginning to end.
What if Tanggunak suppresses other factions by force, and King Hyeonjong succeeds in coaxing and leading them?
‘I may not have seen the full potential of Cheonwoo-maeng yet.’
Paengak sighed heavily and walked slowly.
‘You must have a lot to say to the matriarch.’
Hyeonjong and Tanggunak, who were left in the room, looked at each other. Hyeonjong said quietly.
“I’m sure Panga isn’t the only one who thinks like that.”
Tang Gunak nodded.
“I think so too, Jang Moon-in. Although not everyone says it, there are probably less than three-tenth of those who came here who welcome the formation of the Cheonwoo Alliance. “If we limit ourselves to those who are called prestigious, it won’t be enough to do the job.”
“haha. I have to work. “It makes me realize once again that this is a thorny path.”
It’s not easy. Because this is a rebellion against the order that has ruled the world.
“Nevertheless, many people came.”
“… … .”
“That means you can’t ignore it even if you don’t think about it.”
Tanggunak laughed bitterly.
“Now all we have to do is show them that Cheonwoomaeng is a more formidable place than they thought. This opening ceremony is for that purpose.”
“I know very well what my party leader means. but… … I still don’t know. “I wonder if I can handle this important responsibility.”
“If Jang Mun-in is not in charge, no one can become the leader of the Cheonwoo Alliance.”
“… … .”
“Even if you leave everything else aside… … .”
Tanggunak looked at the door with a confused gaze.
“If Jang Mun-in were to step down from leadership, wouldn’t there be someone who would chase after him with a sword in his mouth and run amok?”
“… … “You’ll be lucky if you just bite the knife.”
The two people laughed and looked at each other.
“Jangmun-in.”
“Yes, matriarch.”
“Like you said, this is something that needs to be done.”
“… … .”
“I believe in Jangmun-in and volcanoes. So, Hwasan, please trust our party.”
Hyeonjong smiled softly at Tanggunak’s rather serious words.
“Who would you trust if not the party? We ask for your continued support.”
The two people lightly held hands.
And then.
Wow!
Suddenly, a loud noise was heard overhead, and both of their eyes turned to the ceiling.
“Hey, you bastard! “I told you not to climb up onto the roof of the long building!”
“Ah, what a nag!”
“Come on! Don’t you come here?! “Aw, damn it!”
There was a lot of strength in our joined hands.
“… … .”
“… … .”
The two people thought. Perhaps Cheonwoomaeng’s biggest enemy may not be the nine factions or the five generations.
