Absolute Sword Sense - Chapter 322
[Episode 104: The title of the best in the world (2)]
“Isn’t it better than just eliminating political factions and unifying?”
‘!!!’
The faces of the two priests, Baek Hyang-muk and Lee Jeong-gyeom, hardened at my words, which could not help but sound mad no matter how they were perceived.
These people don’t know, but actually, I don’t care what the political faction is.
In the first place, I died at the hands of political faction members before returning.
Moreover, my biological father and maternal grandfather were from the Musang Province, and since I am also responsible for the religious sect, there is no reason for me to have regrets about the political sect.
However, they only want to leave political factions behind for one reason.
-Is it because of Youngyoung?
okay.
If it weren’t for Yeong-yeong, it would have been easier to destroy the political faction now.
However, because Yeongyeong had enemies in the Hyeongsan faction and as the deputy head of the Bonghwangdang party, he also had intentions for the faction, he approached it amicably.
In the end, for that child’s sake, I am trying to establish a political faction under my control, not under Geumsangje’s control.
Baekhyangmuk spoke to me in a heavy voice.
“…….It seems like the Murim Federation, or rather the political faction, will fall so easily.”
“As a former leader, I can clearly feel that this is not the political faction it was in its heyday.”
“……..”
Baek Hyang-mook closed her mouth at my words.
Starting with the death of former commander-in-chief Zhuge Yuanming, the Wulin Federation has already changed from before.
It will touch him even more deeply as a former leader.
I pushed harder.
“If you don’t really believe it, you can try it. But you will have to pay the price one way or another.”
Can we really deny this?
These are the priests who have already confirmed that they have made a mountain like that right before their eyes.
If I decide to do it alone, I could inflict a serious blow to the political faction, the Murim Alliance.
Plus, if Blood Bridge and Unmatched Star move at the same time
– I wouldn’t even want to think about it.
I guess so.
Just like the blood religion did in the past, this time the political faction will fall.
Lee Jeong-gyeom said to me when Baek Hyang-muk could not easily open his lips.
“Even if he becomes a leader, what will happen if political faction members find out the truth? Do you think they will follow Brother So even then?”
At those words, I sighed and smiled.
“We must make sure they don’t know the truth.”
“……What do you mean by that?”
“It won’t be difficult if this brother and his teacher, the former leader, help.”
Lee Jeong-gyeom frowned.
I’m just saying this, but it feels like I’m talking like a great villain.
Baek Hyang-mook spoke to me in an uncomfortable voice.
“Do you think the old man and this child will help you?”
“Are you going to break your promise to give me anything?”
“under!”
At those words, Baek Hyang-muk stuck out his tongue.
I guess they didn’t think I would use this as an excuse.
Lee Jeong-gyeom looked at his teacher Baek Hyang-mook with a frown, as if he didn’t know this.
“Is that true?”
Baek Hyang-muk answered in a voice mixed with sighing.
“There was no choice. “At that time, I thought that was the only way to save you and the Wulin Federation.”
Lee Jeong-gyeom’s face darkened at those words.
It seems that he thought he had caught the ankle of his teacher Baek Hyang-muk.
Lee Jeong-gyeom bit his lip and spoke to me.
“I guess I was wrong about Brother So. “I didn’t know there was something like this.”
“This side?”
“Use someone else’s weakness as an excuse….”
“Hmph!”
At his words, I snorted and looked at the priests in turn.
“There are so many misunderstandings.”
“yes?”
“Isn’t it true that such words can be said without an iota of shame under the so-called heavens?”
“What is that…”
-Gooooooo!
“Huh?”
Lee Jeong-gyeom was startled by the intense energy that surged from me and took a stand.
The same was true for baekhyang ink.
Either way, I told them.
“How many people have you killed with your own hands in the name of justice? “Baby ink.”
Baek Hyang-muk frowned at those words.
I continued talking.
“It is your political faction that destroyed with three inches of tongue the Biweol Yeongjong, an upright and sinless person who held a government position in the government in order to isolate the religion.”
At those words, Baek Hyang-muk’s eyes trembled violently.
Lee Jeong-gyeom was unaware of this as it happened around the time the political war was unfolding.
These people are not alone in being victims of the dichotomy of political factions.
“That’s…”
Lee Jeong-gyeom’s expression hardened when he saw Baek Hyang-mook’s face.
It’s probably because he recognized this to be true from his reaction.
“In this way, the Murim Federation, or rather the political faction, drove countless people to death under the pretext of driving out the Sa Sect. “Can such people carelessly talk about justice?”
“…….”
“And Baek Hyang-muk, you also hid the Sword of Death to satisfy your own greed, and you even covered up the fact that your disciple Lee Jeong-gyeom was caught up in the power of the Sword of Death and killed many people.”
The more I spoke, the more thoughtful the priest’s face became.
It must be emotionally painful to mercilessly stab the private parts that they want to hide.
I looked at Lee Jeong-gyeom and said.
“Lee Jeong-gyeom. “Does being possessed by this nature make the fact that you killed innocent people go away?”
“I…”
“If the political faction’s argument goes, I wouldn’t have anything to say even if I killed you guys.”
With those words, I revealed the energy of my entire body.
A typhoon-like wind pressure arose, shaking the forest and shaking the surrounding area.
‘!!!’
The expressions of the two priests hardened.
I know full well that killing them would be easy if I put my mind to it.
Lee Jeong-gyeom must have been under a lot of pressure, but it was difficult for him to open his mouth.
“…….I won’t deny it. I never thought that what I did would go away. “If you want, you can reveal all of this and sacrifice your life as an apology.”
I raised one eyebrow at his words.
Although it could be seen as pretense or a lie, Lee Jeong-gyeom’s eyes did not waver in the slightest.
“But why didn’t you do that?”
“I couldn’t find the person who killed people imitating me and didn’t avenge me for killing my teacher. How could that be?”
“……..”
It was unexpected.
Was he forced to hold on until he killed his teacher’s enemies and another murderous bastard who was slaughtering people?
Somehow, I understand why he had no motivation for everything.
From the beginning, it seems he was planning on taking his life if he achieved it.
Baek Hyang-muk also had tears in his eyes, as if he had discovered his disciple’s true feelings for the first time.
I feel ashamed of myself for this situation.
he told me
“How can you ask only your disciples to take responsibility? “Nobu will also take responsibility with his life.”
Still, the essence is that it is a political faction.
As I looked at them like that, I quickly lost my energy.
And said.
“We can’t leave it like that.”
“what?”
“You guys need to take responsibility.”
“responsibility?”
Baek Hyang-muk asked a question and looked at me as if he couldn’t understand.
“Do you think your lives are worth enough to compensate for so many deaths and sins?”
“……..”
“The martial forest I will create will no longer be caught up in political affairs and kill each other.”
At those words, the expressions on the two priests’ faces turned strange.
I guess I never thought I would say this.
Baek Hyang-mook, who was speechless for a moment, spoke to me in a trembling voice.
“What is your real purpose?”
To this I gave a short answer.
“coexistence.”
“coexistence?”
“The current system can continue.”
“……..”
“The essence of martial arts is to cultivate discipline through martial arts and develop through competition. Rather than using that as a justification to harm each other and satisfy their own desires.”
That is the essence of martial arts.
The goal should be constant discipline and refining inaction.
It should not be a vehicle for power and ambition.
Baek Hyang-mook must have understood what I said, and she had a quite shocked expression on her face.
“Even if we force everything into submission, if I disappear and the generation changes, it will probably lead to another bloody revenge and war.”
“No way, you…”
“I want to break this foolish chain.”
The current system can be maintained to keep each other in check and develop.
There are limits to trying to destroy one side.
“…………”
If you were Baek Hyang Ink, you would know my true intention better.
He led the heyday of the political faction and was in a position to watch its decline.
Baek Hyang-muk, who had a worried look on his face as if my words had touched him, opened his mouth.
“I think Nobu misunderstood your true intentions, the descendant of Geomseon.”
“Master?”
“He is right. In the end, if martial arts becomes a means to harm each other and gain power, it will become a cycle of bloodshed.”
“Ah…”
“And those who are trying to destroy the weakened martial arts group by harming each other like now will continue to appear.”
It seems he wasn’t a martial arts leader for nothing.
He didn’t say much, but his insight was deep.
Having personally experienced what happened this time, he must have fully realized that people like Geum Sang-je can appear at any time.
“How can the old man take responsibility?”
“Focus on making sure that Moorim coexists and develops in a balanced manner.”
“…….Can you really do that?”
“Do you think I’m going to say two things?”
Baek Hyang-mook, who was staring at me like this, politely grabbed me.
And he spoke in a sincere voice.
“Although it is not enough for your wishes, please allow this old lady to help as well.”
“I would have told you to do that.”
At these words, Baek Hyang-mook took a deep breath and looked at his student Lee Jeong-gyeom, as if he had been released from some kind of bondage.
Lee Jeong-gyeom looked at his teacher Baek Hyang-muk and me alternately with trembling eyes and said.
“Do I deserve it?”
“I would have said that dying wasn’t worth that much.”
“But even if I don’t remember, I have the blood of countless people on my hands…”
“If you want to die that much, I can kill you right away. But if it were me, I would do everything I could to atone for that sin.
“Ahhhh…”
At my words, Lee Jeong-gyeom’s eyes became red as if he was filled with emotion, and then he spoke with a swagger just like his teacher, Baek Hyang-mook.
“Please let me help Brother So just like you did.”
I nodded my head as if willingly giving permission.
Sodamgeom said upon seeing them like that.
-Hey. How could you make such a grand plan and not even tell me? Make me feel sad.
What’s so sad about being sad?
The so-called political factions should be treated in this way.
-what?
Do you really think I have such grandiose intentions as the coexistence of martial arts and peace?
It doesn’t have that much meaning in the first place.
If that were the case, they would have tried to reform as members of a political faction rather than as members of a blood religion.
-under!
Upright people like Baek Hyang-muk and Lee Jeong-gyeom, former leaders, when they try to apply force, they end up breaking, and they never obey.
It is more important to convince them than to threaten or make a deal.
Look. This result.
Don’t they, who are influenced by Sechi’s tongue, think like you that I have great intentions for Mulim and voluntarily come forward to help me?
-The real you…
Sodamgeom stuck out his tongue.
Anyway, even though you knew my whole identity, you made me stand on my side.
And that comes from the heart.
This is an incredible achievement.
-So what are you going to use them for?
Baek Hyang-muk has a lot of experience, so he should be used as the vice leader of the Murim League.
Even if Lee Jeong-gyeom is left alone, he will become the leader of the main clan and lead the later leaders of the political faction.
If that happens, like Baek Hye-hyang, they will be able to run the Moorim Federation well under my umbrella.
-Wow…that little hair thing is really the worst.
Call it a ruse.
This is beyond the realm of petty hair.
Anyway, now that I have brought them under my control, I must pursue their original purpose.
I called Lee Jeong-gyeom.
“This brother. “Come here and I will eliminate you.”
Lee Jeong-gyeom spoke in a voice full of anticipation at my words.
“Are you sure you can get rid of it?”
“If I couldn’t get rid of it, how could I have talked about it?”
I wouldn’t know if it was completely dominated by White.
Right now, as long as I absorb it, it doesn’t seem like it will really affect me.
“Please, please.”
This is Lee Jeong-gyeom, who was caught up in the evil spirit and suffered from guilt for a long time.
I placed my hand on Lee Jeong-gyeom’s head as he approached me.
And he raised a thousand fists.
-Wooow!
The fourth of the Big Dipper dots on the back of my right hand shimmered with blue light.
When I approached Lee Jeong-gyeom’s soul, I found it right away.
It was that guy’s white blood.
Baek, who was full of resentment, must have sensed my presence and tried to avoid me by cowering.
Accordingly, I further increased the power of Heavenly Quan.
Then, the guy’s bag held on with all its might and soon escaped from Lee Jeong-gyeom.
-Shoooooo!
“Is this the fortress?”
Lee Jeong-gyeom couldn’t help but be surprised at what looked like black ridges coming out of his body.
Of course, the same was true for his teacher, Baek Hyang-muk.
The black energy that escaped was soon sucked into the point of heaven on the back of my hand.
The moment Baek came in, I was struck by a tingling sensation, as if I had been struck by lightning.
-Srurr!
The memories stored in the bag continue like a fantasy in my head.
[The answer is to just kill people like you.]
[Wait….]
-Quick!
It was a fantasy where I was cutting someone with a sword.
The moment I saw it, I immediately knew who this bag was.
‘Vigilante?’
