Dark and Light Martial Emperor Chapter 1037
Episode 1037
Succession (4)
In the distance, countless units formed their own camps and continued training.
It was fast and intense training.
The Gwangpungdan and Doryongdan trench corps were split into dozens of formations, while the blood corps and secret corps became one and constantly switched between horizontal and vertical lines to fight the virtual enemy.
Among them, the highlight was, of course, the Yongah Iron Gidan. Hwang Seok-tae, who returned immediately after the Sinmarim incident calmed down, led his troops with more sophisticated tactics.
‘What a minister.’
Almost all units except those who had gone on a mission were training on the plain.
Yang Chen smiled.
The units of the Mukryongbu that grew up following him all acquired powerful weapons and commanded the world.
‘Still, if it’s like this.’
I remembered the first time I conquered the Black Island.
At that time, I never thought it would be possible to have this many masters. I had a dream, but making it a reality required a lot of sacrifice, effort, and luck.
Fortunately, all of his subordinates participated in his dream and developed to this point.
It was something special and something I was proud of.
How long has it been like that?
“That’s great.”
“yes?”
Yang Cheon burst out laughing.
“He poured out elixirs generously and modified the martial arts he had acquired while wandering the world and passed them on. Even in the early days after its founding, training to kill and kill was repeated. “When I think about that time, I think it was really terrible for me too.”
“There must have been many casualties.”
“It did. But I didn’t force death. “I just made a suggestion to those who remained for their dreams and ideals.”
“….”
“Hundreds of people died. But even as they were dying, they were looking at me with eyes full of dreams and goals. So I didn’t stop. I couldn’t stop. “A leader who has received the hearts of his dead subordinates can no longer be free.”
“I understand.”
Yang Chen looked up at the sky.
“Even though my form has changed a bit, I am still running across the world. “I was worried that my dead subordinates would understand me, but I think at least they won’t curse.”
“I guess so.”
Yang Chen slowly turned around.
Yeon Ho-jeong knelt down and bowed his head.
“Master.”
“Get up.”
Yeon Ho-jeong stood up.
Yang Chen smiled and continued speaking.
“It’s been a long time since we saw each other like this.”
“That’s right.”
Yang Chen arrived at Mukryongbu twenty-five days ago.
But I couldn’t meet Yeon Ho-jeong right away. This was because Yeon Ho-jeong contacted Yang Cheon in advance and went into the huge castle that was in the process of being renovated to manage and supervise it.
Even if war did not break out, the Mukryongbu planned to move to the castle. However, we could not move troops carelessly now that we did not know when war would break out.
Yeon Ho-jeong went directly to the castle to determine whether it was possible or not.
And now, I was finally reunited with Yang Cheon.
“I was planning on taking care of various matters and heading back soon, but as expected, things never go as expected if I get involved with you.”
“haha.”
“So what happened? “Where are we moving to?”
“It’s great. “The foundation is good and it has already been completed beyond painting.”
“What to paint? already?”
“It’s beyond words, but I don’t think there will be any inconvenience in living even if we move here right away.”
Yang Chen chuckled.
“Somehow I feel like I’m hearing a voice from heaven. “I will somehow prolong the time, so you can move quickly and prepare for war.”
Yeonho-jeong also smiled.
“Shall we walk for a while?”
“great.”
Two people walked around the hill.
“That’s impressive.”
“yes?”
“Your martial arts skills. You’ve grown again even though you haven’t seen it in a while. Now….”
“….”
“I’m not confident that I can even win.”
Even though he says he won’t win, he doesn’t feel jealous or bitter at all.
Yeon Ho-jeong grinned.
“Aren’t I a genius?”
“What a damn bastard. You are not a genius, but a devil sent down by heaven by mistake. “I don’t know how I ended up tangled up with a guy like you.”
Yangcheon clicked his tongue and continued speaking.
“I told my subordinates. “Get ready.”
“As expected, you are Master.”
“Not preparation for migration or war.”
“yes? sure?”
Yang Cheon stopped walking.
“Hand over to Buju.”
“…?!”
Yeon Ho-jeong’s eyes wavered.
“Master.”
“Of course, I will become the Taesang, so I can’t just leave just because I’m passed over to the vice-presidency.”
Yang Cheon burst out laughing, wondering what was so good about it.
Yeon Ho-jeong asked cautiously.
“why…?”
“Why? “Are you asking this because you really don’t know?”
“yes.”
“You’re laughing. “Why wouldn’t someone as perceptive and quick-witted as you know?”
“I really don’t know. Why do you want to hand over the position of deputy governor?”
“Then shall we continue like this without handing over? “Do I have to go back to the imperial palace?”
“…!”
“Of course, I am confident. It must be so exciting to drag the kids and fight with them. Moreover, since they are the children I raised myself, they will get along well.”
“….”
“But I am not the one who should lead the troops in this war. At least that’s the case in Heukdo.”
Yang Chen’s face became serious.
“There are few people in the world who can match your leadership and resourcefulness before using force. Even if everything else fails, a military strategist with foresight can achieve a sure victory. How can we win the war if we do not provide troops to you, who also possesses all the skills as a military strategist?”
“Master.”
“Furthermore, among the warriors of the Ink Dragon, there are many who have been influenced by you. “This rumor in particular was the final blow.”
“Are you saying it’s a rumor?”
“Oh, didn’t you hear? “He must have been confined to the castle.”
Yang Cheon also told us about Yeon Ho-jeong’s story that had spread to the world and his new nickname.
“Untitled in black and white…”
Yeon Ho-jeong’s face showed a look of bewilderment.
Yang Chen chuckled.
“I don’t know who wrote it, but the nickname was amazing. “As soon as you hear it, seeing your life unfold before your eyes is 10,000 times better than receiving a title like a king.”
Yeon Ho-jeong glanced at Yang Cheon and said.
“I did it right once.”
“Rotten bastard. “Well, I’m a priest, but I haven’t looked after him since I was young.”
“Still, a master is a master.”
“How many masters have you had like that?”
“There are two of us, including Master.”
Yeon Ho-jeong smiled.
“The first master climbed the mountain.”
Although he really did climb the ship, Yang Cheon heard that he was just dead.
“That’s right. “What kind of person were you?”
Yeon Ho-jeong looked up at the sky.
Even under the dark sky, the world seemed to become brighter when I thought of my teacher.
“You are a lifesaver. “He is the one who raised an idiot who couldn’t act like a human being to this level.”
“You must have been strong in martial arts, right?”
“He had no enemies in the whole world. “He was a godman who did not reveal himself to the world.”
Yangcheon stuck out his tongue at Yeonhojeong’s serious words.
“It is said that there are as many strongmen as grains of sand in the world, but if you are someone you value that much, he must have been extremely strong.”
“That’s right.”
“It’s a shame. “I wish I could have met you even once.”
Yeon Ho-jeong just laughed.
But even for a moment.
“Wasn’t there a lot of backlash?”
“what? Hand over Buju?”
“yes.”
“Is there any chance of a backlash? “They will die if they follow my orders.”
That was what they said, but in reality the opposition was formidable.
However, it was also an undeniable truth that persuasion was much easier than expected. Yang Chen calmly explained the current situation, and his subordinates sighed and agreed.
“You are the one who holds the lifeline of your subordinates and shakes them, but you have fully demonstrated your abilities. Moreover, thanks to the rumors that have swept the world, our morale has already risen significantly.”
“okay.”
“However, I will have to carry the zodiac sign with me.”
Some of the masters of the Chinese zodiac had been together since before Yang Chen unified the Black Islands.
It means not a person from Mukryongbu, but a person from Yangcheon, the vice-lord. You could remove it if you wanted to, but that would not be polite to the subordinates who have been with you for a long time.
“You can understand that much, right?”
“of course. On the contrary, if I said I would stick around, I would have been told to quickly follow Master.”
“Giggles.”
“I was so careless… I had no idea that he would become the master of the Black Island Alliance like this.”
“Did you always plan on inheriting it?”
“I thought it would be better not to inherit it.”
Yang Cheon understood Yeon Ho-jeong’s feelings.
The relationship between the two was not one created by heaven. It could be said that it was a business relationship formed out of mutual need.
In other words, although he has become a minor master of the Mukryongbu, there is no reason for him to be transferred to the position of vice-lord.
If war had not broken out, Yeon Ho-jeong would have given up his position as Sobuju and returned to his hometown.
Saying that he did not want to become a vice-owner is the same as saying that he hoped that a war would not break out any time soon. The same was true for Yeonhojeong, who called for the overthrow of the three religions but felt burdened by the war in which countless people were dying.
“I have one question.”
“What?”
“If I become the head of the household, can I make a mess as I please?”
“If I tell you not to do it, won’t you?”
“no.”
“But why do you ask?”
“I’m thinking of changing the name of the organization.”
Yang Chen’s eyes widened.
“Isn’t that a bit like that? “It’s a name that I put a lot of thought into.”
“It was a bit childish.”
“This damn kid?”
“haha. That’s it then. “Even if it’s childish, there’s a name engraved in history, so it’s okay if you don’t change it.”
Yangcheon, who was quietly looking at Yeonhojeong, suddenly asked.
“Did you plan on changing things when you moved?”
“If you would allow it.”
“What about permission? Black is different from white. The owner will soon get everything. “So to speak, he is no different from a king.”
“Of course.”
“Whether the name is changed or the organization is reorganized, it is the king’s will. Of course, I don’t know if the aftermath is so severe that it shakes the organization, but it’s not like that.”
“Well, is that right?”
“…Honestly, I am not confident. “The zodiac signs have always been with me, so I’m thinking of leaving them, but the elders are different.”
“An elder.”
“My power is so strong that I can’t even breathe, and each of the elders are formidable. “They are small in scale compared to the Murim League vassals or elders, but each one of them is a warrior who survived through a bloody life as a strongman.”
“….”
“It is not a question of force, but a question of influence. Of course, you can handle it pretty well, but isn’t it usually difficult to control subjects in the early stages of a regime, even in a kingdom?”
“Of course.”
Yangcheon, who was looking at Yeonhojeong, smiled and stretched.
“Well, aren’t you good at beating up guys like that and making them do their job? If you can handle it, do it. “I am now only the leader of the Black Island Alliance and not its owner.”
“It makes me a little sad to hear that.”
“Yes, I’m glad there is at least one person who mourns on behalf of the person concerned. “I didn’t live in vain.”
“ha ha ha.”
“Instead, don’t look at the blood.”
“Do not worry. “If people were going to die, I wouldn’t even think about changing it.”
“You must be young.”
Yang Chen, who was grumbling, tilted his head and asked.
“Do you have a name in mind?”
“of course.”
“What?”
Yeon Ho-jeong closed his eyes.
“This is Black Emperor Castle.”
