Dark And Light Martial Emperor Chapter 1067
Episode 1067
Fire and Ice (2)
That night.
The five major gods, excluding Sima Hyeon, and Yeonhojeong, who unwrapped the robe, climbed to the top of the fortress where the lord of the castle resides.
When I looked around, there was only darkness.
There weren’t many clouds in the night sky on a winter day. It was gloomy when we brought the hat ship, but the weather cleared up. It was impossible to even count the twinkling stars.
“That’s a lot.”
Yeon Ho-jeong stretched out his hand toward a star.
Of course, I couldn’t grab the star. However, when I clenched my fist to catch a star, the starlight there disappeared.
What was that starlight?
I couldn’t figure out what starlight meant. my future? Or my past? Is it his or someone else’s life?
I relaxed my energy and drank alcohol, and for the first time in a while, I felt like I was intoxicated. Even though my body was beyond perfect, I was still drunk. It was worth it since they poured it all in.
Saaagh!
When I used the Hwangryonggi, the machine flew out in an instant.
The emotions that had been taking advantage of the drunkenness to aggravate my body calmed down. Yeon Ho-jeong once again looked at the star he was trying to hold.
The stars and starlight were there too.
Yeon Ho-jeong looked back with a bitter smile.
“Are you here?”
“Good.”
Gi Cheon-woong came next to Yeonhojeong and placed both hands on the railing of the castle tower.
Ki Cheon-woong’s face, looking around in a comfortable position, showed a simple and relaxed look.
“This is my first time here. Since it is the residence of the lord of the castle, it is natural to be large and magnificent, but I wonder if it is okay to do so. “If it’s too big, it can easily be attacked by enemies.”
In any organization, the head’s residence was built in the most magnificent and splendid manner, but at the same time, it was essential to hide it exquisitely so that it could not be seen from the outside. As Ki Cheon-woong said, it was because he could become a target of the enemy.
Yeon Ho-jeong shook his head.
“We don’t have the best security.”
“hmm?”
“Me.”
Since I am here, no one can target me.
In other words, if a master capable of targeting Yeonhojeong appears, there is no point in hiding his residence.
Gi Cheon-woong chuckled.
“That is correct. That’s why you are extraordinary. “There are many leaders who care about their subordinates, but there are not many who sacrifice their lives for them.”
“I know that my life is important. “I didn’t prepare my residence in a place like this just because I thought of my subordinates.”
“if?”
“Heukdo Murim is a place where betrayal is rampant and a person’s life is worth a penny. Some people brag that they feel sympathy for killing their parents and siblings. “There are some neighborhoods where that’s considered a really nice guy.”
“You’re crazy.”
“It’s a place where people worse than animals run amok. The extreme law of the fittest makes even the heavenly law like a stone. That is why the leader of the Black Island Murim must even risk his life to demonstrate his abilities and deployment.”
“But isn’t the Black Emperor you rule different?”
“We’re making it different. The warriors here, who have been organized since the time of the Mukryongbu, are rude and violent, but they are not the worst. But…”
“You can go back at any time?”
“Even people who are good by nature will lose their natural qualities and become beasts if they live in an extreme environment. “I am the last line of control that keeps them from becoming anxious and from becoming animals.”
“It’s the last line.”
“What’s more, a person from a samurai family in the White Island came and became the head of the Black Island? “I have to show them something in my own way so they can feel safe and follow me.”
“There are so many people who have been influenced by your reputation.”
“Because you have such a high reputation, you shouldn’t show your ugly side. “My appearance now will seem quite exciting to the people of Black Island.”
Gi Cheon-woong shook his head.
“It’s fascinating. “You are from the White Island, so how do you know so much about the Black Island martial arts?”
“I am really smart.”
“You know that well. However, looking at your actions, I think it was backed by experience, not just knowledge.”
After all, he is not an ordinary person.
It may be easier said than done, but it is impossible with ordinary eyes to see the difference between thoughts and experiences at a glance.
Yeon Ho-jeong said casually.
“You shouldn’t have seen through your son’s betrayal quickly with that brilliant eye.”
The words were as sharp as an awl. It was a remark that might have made the listener Ki Cheon-woong’s eyes roll.
But Ki Cheon-woong was still calm. Just like when he met his nemesis, Hatsun, he was in control of his emotions.
“I guess I figured it out quickly. And… it is difficult for parents to look at their children coldly.”
Ki Cheon-woong also does not know that Yeon Ho-jeong intentionally mentioned his son.
Whether it has reached the level of zero or has gone beyond.
It is difficult for a relationship connected by heavenly principles to fade away.
Unfortunately, Ki Cheon-woong has to fight a battle of life and death with his son. If a mistake is made due to personal feelings, even Jungwon Moorim may suffer.
So, Yeon Ho-jeong mentioned Sogyoju of the Shinhwa religion every time he seemed to forget. Gi Cheon-woong calmly accepted his words.
“Today, I saw the power of the cult leader again.”
Ki Cheon-woong’s blue eyes sparkled.
“Did you feel it?”
“I thought that since I had climbed to the top of the mountain, I would be able to control myself and come down, but that wasn’t the case.”
“Is there a need to go all that far just to get some atmosphere?”
Admiration appeared on Gi Cheon-woong’s face.
“Anyway, I noticed the change.”
“exactly.”
“At your level, there is no need to discuss what point you have reached, but it is truly amazing. “Still, I think I’m one step above you.”
“If it’s a fight, it’s almost guaranteed that the sect will win.”
“Is it different if it’s a matter of life and death?”
“A fight to the death is bound to be different for everyone. “There is no other place than martial arts where even the best masters in the world die from the poison of a child who has not even learned martial arts.”
“I’d like to ask you if you think the poison will work on my body, but… you’re not wrong.”
In this world, there is no perfection, there is no perfection, and there is no such thing as immovable and best in the world.
To truly become the best in the world, you must transcend everything. And such a being is not a person in the first place.
“The collapse of the top-tier war is becoming more and more active. “To be honest, I thought it would never be fixed, but I was surprised that it could get this much better.”
“The shaman’s ability to manage the top battle is overwhelming. “It would probably be difficult for Shaolin to follow the shaman in that regard.”
“But I don’t know why that guy, Takmuja, hasn’t been fixed yet.”
“Because he was greedy with that great shaman’s martial arts skills, he must be in a much more serious condition than the sect leader. “It will probably be difficult to fix until I die.”
Yeon Ho-jeong looked into Ki Cheon-woong’s eyes.
They say the eyes are the window to the heart, but when you reach that level, you can read other things in the eyes.
“I knew it, but the cult leader is practicing martial arts that is completely different from other Shinhwa cultists.”
“And he’s no different from my son.”
“You didn’t teach everything?”
“I’ve learned everything. However, I just changed the sect leader’s martial arts to a form that suits me best at the closing. And then even the upper part of the battle burned down, but I think its power is outstanding.”
“I corrected that. “In the direction of not polishing the upper stage.”
“…You really are.”
Gi Cheon-woong shook his head.
“How did you become such a monster at that age?”
“Thank you for the compliment.”
Yeon Ho-jeong leaned his upper body on the railing and looked up at the sky.
“What do you think of Binggungju?”
“It seemed sincere.”
“That’s how I see it, too.”
“You know, but why are you using me?”
“Another inspection. “Anyway, it’s my first time seeing him and I don’t have much information about him.”
“She may be an unpleasant woman, but she doesn’t seem to lie.”
“Maybe…”
“Hmm?”
“Perhaps the Binggungju and the religious leader could be a good stimulus to each other.”
Gi Cheon-woong frowned.
“What is stimulation? “It’s just unpleasant.”
“We’ll just have to wait and see.”
With those words, the two stopped talking.
Two people leaning on the railing of the castle tower, looking at the sky, each with different thoughts.
How long has it been like that?
“Lord Seong.”
Suddenly, someone wearing a mask appeared at the top of the castle tower. It was Ammu Danju.
“What’s going on?”
Ammu Danju silently handed over two letters.
Yeon Ho-jeong’s eyes sparkled as he opened one of them.
“at las.”
Gi Cheon-woong tilted his head.
“Something?”
“Master said he had a wedding at the palace.”
“Ohh?!”
The content of one letter was the news of Yang Cheon’s marriage.
He had finally tied the knot with the emperor’s daughter in the imperial palace. It was said that it was held quietly as it was a state of affairs, but it was held in front of hundreds of dignitaries and courtiers who dreamed of the future of the empire.
Yeon Ho-jeong smiled.
‘Please take care of yourself.’
Although the marriage was arranged for political purposes, it is said from sources that the princess was quite attracted to Yang Cheon’s generous personality.
Because of the times, it was common for people to marry, ignoring the age gap of twenty or thirty years. Meanwhile, Yang Cheon came out into the world with his bare hands and grew into a giant who shook the martial arts world, and his power reached its ultimate level, giving him the appearance of a middle-aged man.
It was said that the princess was also uncharacteristically absorbed in martial arts. Although the time for marriage has long passed, if you have a generous personality and a desire for martial arts, there is no better partner for you than Yang.
Now Yeon Ho-jeong was able to sincerely congratulate Yang Cheon on his marriage. Even though it was a plan he himself initiated, it was a marriage contract that Yang Cheon would have refused to the end if he had not liked it.
Gi Cheon-woong whistled.
“I’ve been very blessed in my life. “It’s just that he has an unusual personality, so I wonder if the person who will be his partner will have a hard time.”
“They say the princess’s personality is not easy. “Whether we get along well or break up, there will be extreme results.”
“Somehow you seem confident of a good outcome.”
“If it were the master of the past, you would have been able to raise a good family now.”
Yeon Ho-jeong opened another letter, thinking that he should definitely make time to go and see him.
“…!”
Unlike when he read the first letter, his face suddenly became serious.
“Why but?”
“….”
“Yeonseongju?”
“Look at these?”
Yeon Ho-jeong’s eyes gave off a bright blue glow.
“A movement of this magnitude… means that they were preparing in advance.”
“…?”
“Right. I guess they moved as soon as they heard the news of His Majesty’s death. “If this is true, there is a high probability that the decision was made alone without any connection with other parties.”
A word whose meaning is difficult to understand.
As Gi Cheon-woong tilted his head, Yeon Ho-jeong asked Ammu Danju.
“Are the contents of this letter true?”
“The reliability of the information is beyond saving.”
It meant that it was virtually certain.
Yeon Ho-jeong smiled.
The unique smile that sent goosebumps down the viewer’s spine was that of a warrior who was about to fight.
“Cult leader.”
“You tell me.”
“Still, it’s fate, so let’s go to the imperial palace with me.”
“We haven’t even laid the foundation for the Black Emperor yet, so you’re going again?”
“It’s working fine. I think I can give instructions for about three days and then leave. “Even if it’s not me, there are many people who are capable.”
“Well, you really like going out into the world.”
“That gives me something to do.”
Yeon Ho-jeong looked north.
Ki Cheon-woong, who saw his cold eyes, suddenly saw goosebumps growing on his forearms.
“…okay. “I thought it would only happen if we started first, but there were some people on your side who were exhausted too.”
