Dark and Light Martial Emperor - Chapter 196
Episode 196.
Back to hometown (8)
“….”
A heavy silence fell.
Tang Guan looked at Tang Shang’er with scary eyes.
On the other hand, Tang Sang-ah’s expression looked relaxed. It wasn’t normal for me to maintain a relaxed expression while my father opened his eyes and glared at me.
After a while, the official spoke.
“I cannot allow it.”
“….”
“I will tell the head of the Moyong family well, so just go to your place and rest.”
“I’m going.”
The officer shouted loudly.
“You know where it is!”
“It’s a dead place. Since Tuwang and Yangcheon are involved, if you make a mistake, your life could be lost.”
“You mean to say something like that even though you know it?!”
“This is the path I chose.”
“There is no such thing as a nice way to die. Just go back now. “I can’t send you with me on this mission.”
“Commander Yeon, chairman of the working group, has already put my name on the operation order.”
“Just tear up that piece of paper and that’s it.”
“Even if you burn it, I will go.”
Pusssss.
A venom emanated from Tang Gwan’s body. The poisonous attack was opened arbitrarily due to the surging anger.
“Do you want me to tie you up with my own hands and lock you up?”
Tang Sang’er looked straight into Tang Guan’s eyes.
“Why are you doing this all of a sudden?”
“Are you saying that?!”
“I’m really curious.”
“A blood relative of the Tang family moves as they please without permission from the head of the family? “If it weren’t for my daughter, it wouldn’t be surprising if she were locked up in prison right now!”
“Was it me or your daughter?”
“what?”
Tang Sang-ah poured out her words as if she had made up her mind.
“Since when was I your daughter? Since when my grandfather taught me directly? Or did it start when the Cains valued me more highly than the Yangshen?”
“…!”
“Or was it when you decided to send your foolish daughter, who was born with useless talent, to the Moyong family?”
The temple’s nose trembled.
This is my daughter’s unexpected rebellion. He was embarrassed and angry at the same time.
When the official was about to open his mouth again, Tang Sang-ah added a word.
“Wouldn’t I just have to leave the family?”
“…!”
“That’s what my father wanted. “I, who am a thorn in the side, should not become an obstacle to Yang Seon, the successor.”
I never thought I would say something like this out loud to my face.
While the embarrassed official hesitated, Dang Sang-ah made a bombshell remark.
“Whether you believe it or not, I understand you, Dad. Because there is such a thing as family law and history. So I’ve endured it until now.”
“….”
“But if you try to suppress my desire to find a life outside of my family, then I have no choice but to abandon the Tang family name.”
“What?!”
The official’s face turned red.
“Are you really crazy?”
Are you giving up your last name? This was no different from saying that he would soon sever ties with the family.
If you think of it as a sect, it is an excommunication (破門). In terms of Joongwon’s sentiments, this is a more frightening word than saying he will end his life.
The party really couldn’t understand this situation. Why did my normally docile daughter suddenly become aggressive?
Tang Sang-ah’s expression gradually hardened.
“Then what exactly does your father want? Do not interfere with goodness and do not live according to your own will. “You’re not a person, you’re just a doll?”
“this guy! “Are you trying to fight Abby now?”
“What do you see in my father’s eyes? Is she your daughter or just part of your estate?”
“…!”
“Speaking of which, let me also talk about this. “I came here with that in mind, too.”
Tang Sang-ah closed his eyes.
“If you consider me your daughter, please respect my choice. But if you think it’s something you can dispose of at any time, then kill me right here.”
The official’s face turned white.
Not only did they say they would throw away his last name, they even asked him to kill her. He never imagined such extreme words would come out of his daughter’s mouth.
Grrrr.
The venom that had been seeping out slowly stopped.
Tang Sang-ah opened her eyes.
She saw her father’s distorted face, breathing heavily.
“I’ll just get up.”
“You are not an object.”
“…?”
“I never once thought of you as an object. “You are my daughter that no one can deny.”
Tang Sang-ah’s eyes wavered.
The officer continued speaking in a heavy voice.
“The Tangma army is numerous. Military commander Mo Yong-woo is also a rare genius. That’s why I didn’t say anything. “I thought it wouldn’t be a bad idea to join an organization for experience.”
“….”
“But this time it’s different. It’s a dangerous mission that could cost your life if you make a mistake! Besides, I absolutely cannot allow you to fall under that damn brat!”
“I’d like to ask you this again.”
“…?”
“Are you really worried about my life? Or are you concerned about me being taken hostage by Commander Yeon?”
For a moment, the official’s eyes wavered.
Tang Sang-ah sighed.
“Did you think I wouldn’t know that you just smile every time we meet? “The Lord of the Moyong family and my father are engaged in a conflict with opposing factions, including the Yeon Family.”
“…!”
“I don’t know what my father really means. But I am who I am. “I don’t want to be someone’s hostage or be hindered from doing what I want to do.”
“That’s…”
A somewhat suppressed voice came out of the officer’s mouth.
“It’s not a matter of just because you want to be that way.”
“i know. So, I plan to crush anyone who touches me, regardless of the reason.”
“…!!”
Tang Sang-ah stood up.
“I’ll be back.”
With those words, Tang Sang-ah left the residence.
A sigh came out of the mouth of the official who had been staring at the seat where his daughter had been sitting for a long time.
‘What is this?’
He never thought he would be so embarrassed by his daughter’s rebellion.
I thought one shout would break his will. In fact, although I was embarrassed at the beginning of the conversation, I did not hesitate.
However, the official could not help but be shocked by the daughter’s words that seemed like a lightning strike.
Are you giving up your last name? Would you rather kill me?
Who would have imagined that such a gentle and gentle daughter would turn out to be so harsh?
At that moment, Dang-gwan remembered the conversation with his father.
‘I couldn’t understand my family’s feelings. Probably most of the past family heads were like that. However, I realized too late that I shouldn’t do that.’
‘What do you want to say?’
‘I hope you are different from the family heads who were eaten by the family tradition and ended up becoming puppets of the family law.’
‘Do not worry. I am not even like my father.’
‘Wrong. Among my children, there is no one who resembles me more than you. That’s why I’m worried.’
bang!
Green smoke rose from the officer’s fist, which hit the table.

“Try a drink.”
Yeon Ho-jeong took a sip of tea.
“How is it? “Are you okay?”
“Good.”
“There was no sincerity in your voice.”
“I don’t really know what tea tastes like. “As long as it’s not bad, everything is good.”
“Hehehe.”
“So why did you call the person who has to go to war now?”
Moyong-gun smiled.
“Is there anything special? “I don’t know how difficult this mission is, so I should treat the departing working group leader to a cup of tea.”
“Suddenly the tea tastes bitter.”
“why? “Can’t I worry about you?”
“Were you the kind of person who cared about me?”
“You should be worried. “Just this time.”
Prince Moyong took out a neatly folded letter from his pocket and handed it to him.
A look of puzzlement appeared on Yeon Ho-jeong’s face.
“What is this?”
“I already gave it to Hu-gae, but I’m giving it to you separately. This is a compilation of useful breakaway groups and organizations. There aren’t that many, so choose appropriately depending on the situation.”
Yeon Ho-jeong chuckled.
“Is this a usable breakwater? “They must be half-baked people.”
Moyong smiled happily.
“Of course I can talk to you. “I had to explain everything to Hu-gae.”
“Hugae is also a smart person. “But I am very suspicious of you.”
“Knowing how to distinguish between when to doubt and when to believe. “That is also an ability.”
“Your words are good.”
“In that respect, you are a really great friend. “He’s smart, has a good eye, and has great sensitivity.”
Yeon Ho-jeong received the letter and kept it in her arms.
“Anyway, I’ll accept it.”
Mo Yong-gun spoke in a more serious voice while still smiling.
“Be careful.”
“Of course.”
“If you think this mission is actually simple, it could become infinitely simpler. But just because Tuwang exists over there makes it worthy of being classified as a special class.”
Yeon Ho-jeong nodded.
In fact, the Yang Cheon he remembered was not usually a great person. Although he improved much more after defeating him and establishing the Black Emperor Castle, he was also lucky when he won against Yang Chen.
But martial arts was not the only thing that Yang Cheon was afraid of.
“Besides, as I have reported separately, Yang Cheon….”
“A person who fights without lines?”
“How did you know?”
Yeon Ho-jeong pretended not to notice and pulled away.
“I always had doubts. A person named Yangcheon is not very well known in Jungwon. Yet, you were classified as a black sword and even earned the nickname ‘Tuwang,’ right?”
“yes.”
“It is much more difficult to tame a rat than to catch a fierce tiger. But Yangcheon did it.”
Moyong-gun chuckled.
It was similar to what he had said to the officer. I felt like this guy was definitely of the same type as me.
“That’s right. “That makes it even scarier.”
“It would be even more strange if Yang Chen had pioneered the path alone without anyone’s help. “It means that he has been hiding his outstanding ability until now.”
“So you were suspicious.”
“exactly.”
Prince Moyong shook his head.
“I think there is a clear possibility that Yang Cheon received help from someone. But you can’t be sure. “If you overdo it and dig into that part, you won’t be able to avoid death.”
“I know.”
“Well, I guess you can take care of it yourself.”
Two people quenched their thirst with tea at the same time.
Prince Moyong opened his mouth again.
“Actually, it is the commanding authority, but the working group is the core of this mission. “Even if we want to exchange information one by one, the distance is too far, so your judgment as the working-level leader will determine the success or failure of the mission.”
Yeon Ho-jeong smiled.
“I wish you were there too.”
Prince Moyong waved his hand.
“Don’t say things like that. “I have no intention of getting involved in such a complicated fight, as I would rather kill the enemy’s leader.”
“why? “He is willing to fight a much more complex fight to become the most powerful person.”
It was a statement that could instantly freeze the warm atmosphere.
Moyong-gun accepted it with a grace.
“That’s what I said. “I don’t want to focus on this mission while fighting that painful fight.”
Yeon Ho-jeong chuckled.
“Let’s have a truce for a while.”
“Didn’t you do that a long time ago?”
“You know? “That’s not what I’m saying.”
Moyong’s smile deepened.
“why? “Do you think I’ll take advantage of your absence and do something strange?”
“If it had been in the past, I wouldn’t have worried, but looking at you recently, I feel like that’s okay.”
He’s a really scary guy.
Contrary to his feelings, Prince Moyong shrugged his shoulders and looked the other way.
“A fight can only take place if there is an opponent. “Don’t worry too much about that and just focus on your mission.”
“I will speak clearly.”
Yeon Ho-jeong’s eyes turned cold for an instant.
“Do not make any attacks until I return.”
Frost also appeared on Prince Moyong’s face.
“That’s my heart.”
The two stared at each other for a long time.
But even for a moment.
Soon, Yeon Ho-jeong smiled and stood up.
“I enjoyed my tea.”
“I’m glad it hit you in the mouth.”
Moyong-gun also relaxed his expression.
“If you enter the territory controlled by Yangcheon, contact me immediately. As you can see, Yangcheon is gaining ground even at this very moment.”
“I understand.”
Yeon Ho-jeong took control.
“then.”
Prince Moyong also took command of Maju.
“Good luck.”
