Dark and Light Martial Emperor - Chapter 174
Episode 174
Tangma Destruction (4)
Stop political strife.
It was an unusual remark. Yeon Ho-jeong could never have imagined that a public ambassador would say such words.
Yeon Ho-jeong, who was watching the public ambassador, smiled and asked.
“Did you say you gave instructions to Commander Moyong?”
Although it was a random comment, the public ambassador answered leisurely.
“That’s right.”
“You were planning to give gifts to the leaders of the two military units before setting off.”
“That’s what I was thinking, but it seems like it was a gift you didn’t need. Commander Moryong also started a family, but you are different. “You haven’t reached prominence yet, but it feels like you’ve already completed your own school.”
I wasn’t talking about the Four Gods’ Martial Arts.
The key is how to practice the martial arts you are learning in your own way. This is the reason why the power and use of the same martial art were very different depending on the person using it.
“You seemed like someone who already knew how to improve.”
It was an excellent insight.
This kind of insight is not something that can be developed simply by learning good martial arts. It was an insight that could only be gained by facing countless experts through hundreds of battles.
Shaolin Temple. The myth of Baekdo Martial Arts, which is said to be the best in the Central Plains in both Buddhism and martial arts.
Indeed, it seemed like not just anyone could chair such a sect.
Cooung.
Yeon Ho-jeong, who had casually put down the Gwangryongbu, shook his head.
“I didn’t get to see Master Bangjang’s actual martial arts performance, but it was still an impressive martial arts performance. thank you.”
A strange look flashed in the public ambassador’s eyes.
I am not saying that Shaolin is a true martial artist or an expert. It is said that it is Master Bangjang’s martial arts.
It was a subtle difference, but Ambassador Gong Gong was sure that he had already noticed as he looked at Yeon Ho-jeong’s deep eyes.
“Did you see it?”
“yes?”
“I’m talking about my martial arts skills.”
Yeon Ho-jeong nodded.
“I’m not sure, but it seemed like there was a separate martial arts training.”
“haha.”
“Of course, he would also be a Shaolin martial artist. Just…”
“Just?”
Yeon Ho-jeong stroked his chin.
After thinking for a moment, he tilted his head and said.
“Are you planning on compiling the Shaolin martial arts or creating another martial arts?”
Surprise appeared on the Ambassador’s face.
“How did you come up with that thought?”
“It’s just a feeling.”
“Huh!”
“When you reach the limit in any area, you tend to go back to basics. However, while the Ambassador’s martial arts are simple, they contain principles that are difficult to explain.”
Yeon Ho-jeong stretched out his fist.
Paang!
It was a disciplined exercise. The air in the area was shaking.
“Right is power. Power is emanation, and emanation is implementation. And the person’s thoughts and enlightenment are reflected in the martial arts that are implemented.”
“Are you saying that you read my intention by looking at the martial arts that I implemented?”
Yeon Ho-jeong nodded.
The public ambassador was truly impressed.
“My dream, which no one in the temple recognized, was recognized by the greatest martial arts expert of the time, who was born and raised in Gangdong.”
“Didn’t you do the same, Ambassador?”
“hmm?”
“You summoned me and Commander Moyong and danced together. “Isn’t it not simply to give a gift, but because I wanted to know the sincerity contained in the martial arts that are practiced?”
“…!”
“So did you read my true feelings?”
Ambassador Gong Gong, who was quietly watching Yeon Ho-jeong, sighed.
“I thought it was a sleeping dragon waiting for its time to ascend to heaven, but was it already a fully grown divine dragon?”
“This is an undeserved assessment.”
“It’s not too much. It’s truly not too much. Martial arts are martial arts, but your insight has already discussed the world.”
“That’s why it’s excessive.”
“why?”
“Because my eyes are not on the world but on people.”
The public ambassador lamented.
“It’s directed at people…”
Yeon Ho-jeong said.
“I don’t have a grandiose desire to serve the world, but at least I know how to serve my own flesh and blood. “Don’t worry too much.”
“Hehehe.”
“then.”
Clap!
Yeon Ho-jeong, who turned around with the Gwangryongbu on his shoulder, looked strangely relaxed.
The public ambassador, who was watching him slowly walking away, opened his mouth.
“What is the answer?”
Yeon Ho-jeong stopped walking.
“What answer are you talking about?”
“I asked you to stop the political conflict with the head of the Moyong family.”
“Didn’t you call me because you wanted to know the thoughts of the leaders of the Tang Demon Murder Army?”
“Of course, that was the purpose.”
“If you achieved your goal, isn’t that okay?”
“So what is the answer?”
Yeon Ho-jeong turned around again.
Ambassador Gong Gong’s eyes were still clear and deep, but contained a hint of coolness.
“Can I ask one question before answering?”
“You tell me.”
“How did you know?”
The public ambassador burst into laughter.
“I don’t know because you have never attended a public meeting, but I tend to open my ears rather than my mouth during meetings.”
“….”
“Your ability to see through your opponent’s weaknesses is amazing. Did you say that if you, as the weak, try to kill the strong, you will be seen?”
“That’s right.”
“Me too. I’m not good at politics. “I was just busy observing who was leading the meeting and what they wanted.”
Yeon Ho-jeong quenched his appetite.
“The ambassador’s insight to recognize this just by observation is also unusual.”
“I doubted it before. Anyway, the head of the six generations is fighting with the late Jisoo who has not yet bloomed? I thought it made no common sense. Wouldn’t it be better if it were Zhuge Gaju?”
The public ambassador shook his head.
“But I was convinced after seeing the reaction to this decryption incident. “I guess I was right.”
“….”
“You and the head of the Moyong family are fighting fiercely. “The fight between the two is shaking the entire huge group called the Murim League.”
He is a great person.
Common sense soon breeds stereotypes. The fact that something outside of common sense has happened is consistent with the idea that stereotypes have been broken.
In other words, Ambassador Gong was able to read the secret bloody struggle between Yeon Ho-jeong and Mo Yong-gun just by observing people and reading the flow of the situation.
Yeon Ho-jeong smiled slightly.
“You are amazing.”
“I didn’t say this to get compliments. “I just don’t want to fight.”
Ambassador Gong Gong lowered his chin and looked at Yeon Ho-jeong.
“Let’s stop the political strife.”
“Is this a warning?”
It was a provocative question.
“If it’s a warning, will it stop? If it’s not a warning, will it continue?”
“Of course not.”
“Then it’s a meaningless question.”
“It makes sense.”
“why?”
“If this is a warning, I think I will have to drag the ambassador into my political struggle.”
The public ambassador’s eyes lit up.
“You probably don’t know that this is a dangerous statement.”
“From the moment I stepped on this board, I put my life on the line. “There’s nothing new about adding an arrow to a battlefield where swords and swords are flying.”
The public ambassador sighed.
“Why on earth are you fighting with him?”
“Because I don’t think he should become the Murim lord.”
“What what?”
I didn’t expect an answer like this to come.
the surprised public ambassador asked.
“Are you saying that the Moyong family is targeting the Murim lord?”
“You knew that he and I were having a political fight, but didn’t you ever think about why that fight broke out?”
“….”
“Moyong Gaju is a capable person. But he is also a person who is not satisfied with anything less than the best. “Until he reaches a position of satisfaction, he will not even blink at the sacrifice of innocent people.”
“So, the reason you are opposing the head of the Moyong family is to prevent him from becoming a leader?”
Yeon Ho-jeong nodded.
“There are complex reasons, but for now, yes.”
It was a strange answer.
Because the answer was not clear, it was inevitable that it would be frustrating for the listener.
“haha.”
The public ambassador’s laughter was very empty.
“The Moyong family is aiming to become the Murim lord… Then, did the Zhuge family suggest the position of vice-lord?”
“I think concentration of power is not good. “I think that no matter who becomes the leader, there must be a means to keep him in check.”
“The Murim Alliance has capable leaders, including Bong Gong.”
“And there are people who are trying to attract those leaders to their side.”
“…!”
“No system can be perfect. “All I can say is that this was the best thing for now.”
In the past, when Prince Moyong became the Murim lord, Dang-gwan, who was on the same boat as him, became the deputy lord.
And the person who created the position of deputy leader was Prince Moyong.
do not do that.
It is right to create positions and institutions to prevent dictatorship as much as possible, not to enshrine one’s own people.
In other words, even for the same vice-lord, it varies depending on who created it, when and why.
The public ambassador’s eyes deepened.
“What if the Moyong family gives up on becoming the best?”
“….”
“If that happens, does that mean you will stop too?”
Yeon Ho-jeong shook his head.
“Mo Yong-kun doesn’t stop. “No matter who stops me.”
“….”
“If you really want to stop his rampage, you would rather kill him. “That’s the only way.”
“You can’t do that.”
“So my political struggle has no choice but to continue.”
“So you didn’t say ‘if’? “If the head of the Moyong family gives up his ambition, what do you plan to do?”
Yeon Ho-jeong smiled.
“From then on, we must work hard to unite the power of the White Path, starting with the unity of the Murim Alliance.”
A smile appeared on the face of the public ambassador.
“It’s really nice to hear that answer.”
“Is that so.”
“I understand what you mean.”
Yeon Ho-jeong said to himself.
You wouldn’t know, Ambassador.
“Today’s meeting was truly enjoyable. “If we get a chance later, let’s share our hands again.”
* * *
Three days later.
Kugugoogung!
The North Gate of the Murim Alliance, Hyeonmu Gate, was opened.
A loud voice echoed through the open door.
“The combined army of the Tang Demons and Demons is ready to go!”
Rumbling.
The sound of horses’ hooves pounding the ground was reminiscent of thunder.
It was a joint army of 550 men, all composed of prominent martial artists. And at the head of them were Yeon Ho-jeong and Mo Yong-gun driving horses.
It wasn’t just the two of them. All the soldiers going out were riding majestic horseback horses.
Flash!
The Tangma army all wore antique armor.
It was light armor, not heavy armor. It was a thoroughly improved item that made it easy to move, so it didn’t seem to be a problem no matter what type of martial arts was used.
On the other hand, the Mortal Army did not wear any armor. Their appearance, just in the same clothes they originally wore, looked natural even though it wasn’t as majestic as Tang Ma’s army.
Mo Yong-woo asked, looking ahead.
“How was it?”
“what?”
“I’m talking about a meeting with Ambassador Bangjang.”
“It was thrilling in many ways.”
“I think I understand.”
“Did you train Tangma properly?”
“The training right now was meaningless. “I just tried to bring our hearts together.”
“good job. “Even if I had trained him in a haphazard way, there would have been no income.”
A subtle tension appeared on Mo Yong-woo’s face.
“Have you finished everything you need to do?”
Yeon Ho-jeong glanced behind him.
“I did enough. “Your father and the other servants will take care of the rest.”
“I hope nothing bad happens.”
“Okay. Now let’s just mind our own business.”
Kugugoogung!
The main gate of Hyeonmu was closed.
Yeon Ho-jeong’s eyes sparkled.
“Shall we run slowly?”
“It’s good.”
Rumbling!
Five hundred and fifty horsemen rode down the mountain path, causing strong tremors.
The destination was Shandong Province.
