Dark and Light Martial Emperor - Chapter 138

Episode 138

A ragtag group (2)

“Are you here?”

“okay.”

“Would you like some tea?”

“Hehe, you’re going to say that.”

After a while, Mo Yong-gun and Mo Yong-woo sat across the table.

Moyong-gun, who quenched his thirst with tea, asked.

“How about the Geongonbaek8geomhae (乾坤百八劍解)?”

“It was difficult.”

Moyong smiled as if he knew everything.

“Moyongse is the best swordsmanship with hundreds of years of history. “I’ve been practicing it for nearly twenty years, but I still have ways to expand further.”

“I knew it was an infinite sword.”

“I saw it well. “Direction, sword power, speed, arts, etc., there is no end in sight to the waves and waves.”

“Thank you again.”

“Hehe, there is no need for such a stiff greeting between brothers.”

What a strange thing to say.

Mo Yong-gun may have said this sincerely, but he could only say it because Mo Yong-woo said he would follow him. If Mo Yong-wu had stayed in Zhejiang until the end, he probably would not have seen him until he died.

‘This is better.’

Prince Mo Yong visited Mo Yong Woo for several days and talked about various things. It was for Mo Yong-woo, as if he was finally giving away the affection he had been holding back.

But Mo Yong-woo knew. Moyong-gun’s favor only applies to people within his boundaries.

‘Even though I know, I was drunk for a while.’

The friendship between brothers deepened. Mo Yong-gun would think so, and Mo Yong-woo also agreed to a certain extent.

However, every time I hear something that makes me feel uncomfortable, I wake up.

‘Brother, it’s dangerous.’

My resolution, which had been slightly shaken, became stubborn again.

“Are you going to be okay?”

“yes?”

“Even if you leave the Zhejiang branch in your hands. “You will have to work under me for a while.”

Mo Yong-woo said confidently.

“My subordinate’s administrative skills are superior to mine. In fact, it will be better for sustaining branch business.”

“Huh, really? “If you make that kind of assessment, you must not be an average talent.”

Mo Yong nodded his head.

“Let’s take a look at the situation in the future and bring him back to his home.”

“yes?”

“hmm? Hehe, why are you so surprised? “If it’s you, then you’re also from the original family, right?”

Mo Yong-woo, who was quietly looking at Mo Yong-gun, nodded.

“I think you’ll like it, too.”

Moyong-gun’s greed for talent is endless.

However, it was different from the way the Old Zhou Myeongga expanded its power. They are greedy, but if they think it might be a problem, they don’t even care. This was the reason why Moyong-gun was able to build a stable foundation.

For an instant, Mo Yong-woo’s expression hardened.

“older brother.”

“Okay, tell me first.”

“You know what you said before?”

“What do you mean?”

“Marriage… I mean.”

“Ah, you mean the eldest daughter of the Jungwon battlefield?”

Moyong smiled and stroked his beard.

“Don’t worry. I’ve seen that kid once before, but he had great spirit and a very fair complexion. “He is young, so he will be a perfect match for you.”

A look of honest embarrassment appeared on Mo Yongwu’s face.

“I’m not mentally ready yet…”

“Hehe, marriage is not a big deal. “Once you get it done, you’ll wonder why you even bothered.”

That’s not the problem.

But it really didn’t seem to be a big problem for Moyong-gun. In fact, he also married his bride based on her background and abilities.

That wasn’t all. The world was like that.

It is a peaceful world, but this peace can be broken at any time. I didn’t know that marrying a powerful person might be a necessity in this unfinished world of turmoil.

“However, there is a need to delay marriage.”

“yes?”

Prince Moyong took out a golden document from his arms.

Mo Yong-woo’s eyes widened.

“that…?”

“It is a document written by the Association of Mengong after the Fengong meeting.”

“Is it okay to leak such a document to the outside world?”

“hmm? haha! Isn’t there a Murim League here too? “Don’t worry too much.”

Leaking important documents to the outside world is a serious crime, regardless of status.

‘You believe it.’

Mo Yong-woo looked at Mo Yong-gun’s face.

Even though the document was leaked, I am not at all anxious.

‘You believe it. Even if I get caught leaking documents, it won’t be a problem.’

Unless the foundation of Maengnae is quite solid, it is not easy to do something like this. That’s how confident Moyong was.

‘It is clear that he joined hands with several heads of each faction in that short period of time. At least four….’

It’s scary.

Ilshin’s martial arts and resourcefulness were not the only things he excelled at. Prince Moyong was also well-versed in politics, and his skills were also useful to the giants of the martial arts world who had gone through many hardships.

“Why are you doing that?”

“…no.”

Mo Yong-woo read the document.

His eyes sparkled.

“The organization chart under the Murim League has been completed. Of course, it will take some time until all organizations are organized.”

“…You’re fast.”

“Yes. In the case of independence fighters, they plan to select the best among the warriors who will join the alliance. “It will probably be of great help to you.”

Mo Yong-woo’s eyes widened.

“But the numbers are different.”

“hmm?”

“The personnel limit for the Yu army that I will be in charge of and the Yu army that my eldest son will be in charge of are different.”

Prince Moyong smiled coolly.

“Of course you should. “There’s no need to put a lot of numbers in there, right?”

The maximum number of Yu soldiers that Mo Yong-wu would be in charge of was five hundred.

On the other hand, the number of Yu soldiers that Yeon Ho-jeong could take on was only a hundred.

“Just because you have a lot of people doesn’t mean you can get a good record. However, if the abilities are similar, external factors will have great power from then on.”

“….”

“Try to disband or integrate the Confucian forces over there within two years. That is your first mission.”

“All right.”

Mo Yong-woo placed the document.

His eyes were a little shaken, but his expression was stubborn. It probably means that you have your own confidence.

“I think there’s something I need to do before that.”

“hmm?”

Mo Yong-woo looked out the window.

“I need to meet the eldest son of the Yeon family.”

* * *

“Hmm, a hundred people.”

Yeonwi sighed.

“I’m sorry. “I tried my best, but the result was like this.”

Yeon Ho-jeong smiled.

“You didn’t like the existence of Prince Yu from the beginning, right?”

“That’s why I opposed it. However, if you are a Confucian army that will be created, I wanted to give you strength.”

“Haha, it’s okay.”

A look of fun appeared on Yeon Ho-jeong’s face.

“There is a limit of 100 people….”

“Actually, if you look at the activity provisions, it is not a very small number.”

“There are rather many.”

“what?”

Yeon Ho-jeong tilted his head.

“I have no intention of filling 100 people. Of course, I would like to recruit useful people if they appear.”

Yeonwi shook his head.

“I don’t know what you’re thinking.”

“There’s one thing I’m curious about.”

“What is it?”

“When can I go out?”

There was surprise on Yeonwi’s face.

“Are you already thinking about joining forces with Yu?”

“of course. We didn’t need up to 100 people in the first place, but weren’t we pushed out in numbers anyway? In that case, I have no choice but to go out and pursue my major as soon as possible.”

“Isn’t it too urgent? Moreover, in order for Yu-gun to act as Yu-gun, there must be a proper purpose.”

“Isn’t it up to you to create your purpose?”

“…”

“I tried to say that, but I actually think you just have to follow the right path.”

“Follow the degree?”

Yeon Ho-jeong’s eyes sparkled.

A goal that I had planned from the moment I brought the plaque of independence fighters to Prince Moyong.

“I plan to clean up the Black Island.”

“Heukdo Murim?!”

“That’s right.”

Probably the first time. The reason Yeon Ho-jeong hid his true feelings from Yeon Wi.

“We will cut out the vicious thugs of the Black Island who are sucking the blood of the people’s lives. Of course, even if they are not black, we can eradicate those that threaten the people’s livelihood.”

Everyone says heukdo is a martial artist, ‘I am heukdo.’ I don’t live while doing this.

Those who violate moral principles and commit clear violations of the law. What are these people if not black people?

“It’s not a bad idea. No, it’s actually better. “If the power of the white martial arts is concentrated into the martial alliance, the black martial arts in each region will inevitably rise to power.”

“That’s right. “We need to start by cutting off those twigs.”

“hmm.”

Yeonwi looked at her son’s expression.

Yeon Ho-jeong smiled faintly.

“Why are you doing that?”

The chronology was known. Yeon Ho-jeong is hiding something from herself.

Now I can see through my son’s thoughts just by looking at his expression and eyes. This may be because the exchange between father and son was so deep.

“Is there any other purpose besides that?”

“….”

I can’t lie.

Yeon Ho-jeong sighed.

“there is.”

“Okay, I got it.”

That’s it.

I was eager to find out what the purpose was, but Yeonwi didn’t want to dig any further.

If it was something he could say, he wouldn’t be the type of person to fool himself in the first place. Yeonwi did not want to bother his son.

But I must accept one promise.

“I believe it won’t be against morality.”

“At least it doesn’t go against my morals.”

It was an ambiguous statement.

Yeonwi nodded.

“Okay, that’s enough.”

Yeon Ho-jeong sighed inwardly.

He, too, wanted to publicize the existence of the Three Religions of Gwangsin. So I wanted to say that not only the White Island Murim Alliance but also the Black Island should join forces.

‘Not yet…’

But not yet.

‘It’s not time yet.’

This is the father I wanted to meet even if I had to die. I know that you will believe me no matter what I say.

Not yet though. As time passes and the true nature of the enemy becomes clear, it will not be too late to speak up.

‘For now, let’s focus on my work. ‘There’s not much time.’

Originally, more than twenty years later, the Three Religions of Guangshin would invade the central plains.

But history has changed.

Because of that one person, Yeon Ho-jeong, the Yeon family, which should have been extinct, survived, the Guju Myeong family collapsed faster, and the establishment of the Murim Alliance was also brought forward.

This change was by no means small.

‘We may invade later. Perhaps, due to some kind of incident, I may never go beyond the midfield for the rest of my life. But…’

If they had been preparing for an invasion long ago.

‘It may not happen immediately, but there is a possibility that it will happen sooner. ‘I don’t have time to think about just that.’

In Yeon Ho-jeong’s opinion, the maximum leeway for his enemies was ten years.

It had to be assumed that the Three Religions of Gwangshin would advance into the central plains within at least ten years. Even if we assumed that and moved, it would not be enough.

In other words, after making Mo Yong-wu the leader of the Murim within ten years, the power of the White Islands must be cultivated, and at the same time, the power of the Black Islands’ Murim must be united and prepared for war.

That was his goal and mission. I thought that was exactly why heaven gave me another chance.

Yeon Ho-jeong truly believed that.

“Anyway, I don’t think there’s any need to move too hastily. “There is no clear word on how to select Yu’s troops right now.”

“Do not worry. “I have something in mind.”

“Hmm?”

Yeon Ho-jeong grinned.

“There are people who are not very strong, but who are still able to travel freely across the river. “I don’t know how many people there will be, but I expect there will be at least 30 people.”

“Thirty people…”

Yeonwi’s eyes sparkled.

“You sure?”

It was then.

The two people looked out the window at the same time.

Yeon Ho-jeong stood up.

“I’ll be back.”

“…I think he’s from the Mo Yong family.”

“you’re right. “You will be my guest.”

It was Mo Yong-woo, the unmanned man coming to Pagungak.

‘It’s a good thing I was prepared.’

Yeon Ho-jeong groped her own chest. There was quite a thick letter in there.

It was a letter to be delivered to Mo Yong-woo.

‘I believe you will do well even without me. ‘Use your abilities to the fullest.’

Yeon Ho-jeong said to Yeon Wi.

“I’ll talk to you for a moment.”

“okay.”

“And father.”

“hmm?”

“Everything will work out fine. Do not worry.”

Yeonwi smiled. Her unique, awkward smile now seemed quite natural.

“Don’t cause an accident, you bastard.”
