Dark and Light Martial Emperor - Chapter 197
Episode 197
Head-on attack (1)
Teeeeing! puck!
The arrow split the air and immediately pierced the iron plate.
There was joy on Mukbi’s face.
‘done.’
No matter how excellent the tension of the Hongryeongung is, it cannot pierce the iron plate if it is not properly loaded with energy.
But not like this time. She only put a very small amount of energy into her arrow.
An arrow that would have bounced off in the past pierced the iron plate. This is because instead of reducing the amount of internal power, the method of operating internal power was changed.
‘The martial arts are really endless.’
Just by changing my thoughts, the power of the arrow changed.
It was a diversity of martial arts implementation that was not learned in Gwanilgok. Her unique archery skills, created through countless battles, hard work, and deep agony, were finally blossoming.
“That’s amazing.”
“ah! “Father has arrived.”
“okay.”
Yeonwi smiled with satisfaction as she looked at the holey iron plate.
“Half of the power previously contained. You were able to break through the iron plate with that much force. “It means that your concentration and internal energy management have grown to the next level.”
There was honest joy on Mukbi’s face. I knew it myself, but I felt reassured when Yeonwi directly confirmed it.
“It’s thanks to my father. “If you hadn’t given me advice in time, I wouldn’t have thought of it.”
“Anyone can give advice. “The problem is how to accept it.”
Yeonwi tapped her shoulder.
“Your greatest strength is not your natural talent. He has the attitude of being able to seriously think about anything he hears. “In the realm of martial arts, there is no talent as great as not being stubborn.”
Mukbi’s face turned red.
The Yeonwi was clear in its praise and criticism. However, it was usually the criticism that carried more weight. If you do well, that’s it, but if you do poorly, it can lead to death in actual combat.
In other words, receiving this level of praise meant that the silent attitude was that impressive. Mukbi is also particularly happy because he knows this.
Yeonwi asked calmly.
“Do you know?”
“yes?”
“Lee Gak Jeon Ho-jeong has gone on a mission.”
Unexpectedly, Mukbi’s expression was calm.
“yes. “I left after talking about it earlier.”
Yeonwi, who had been silent, spoke again.
“Aren’t you disappointed?”
Mukbi filed a complaint.
“It was like that at first. “Even if it’s not the best, I thought it would be helpful in some way, but I thought that if I wasn’t trustworthy enough, they wouldn’t take me away.”
These things are naturally revealed in front of the committee. Mukbi also became increasingly comfortable dealing with Yeonwi.
“Does this mean you think differently now?”
“yes.”
Mukbi looked up at the sky.
The weather has become chilly. The clouds were just right.
“When I think about it, he has never once ignored me since I first met him. “We joked around a lot, but even then there were clear lines.”
“I see.”
“Even if it seems like they are being rude on the outside, they never want to hurt the other person’s feelings if they think of it as their own.”
Yeonwi smiled.
Mukbi is kind, but rarely reveals his true feelings. The fact that she said this meant that she completely trusted her son.
“I’m fortunate that the first person I met when I came out into the world was a practitioner.”
“I see.”
Mukbi wore Hongryeon Palace on his back.
“Those who are leaving have left, and those who remain must start their own work.”
Yeonwi nodded.
“You are right. “As there is no Gojeong, the fight on this side will become quite fierce.”
It was said that it would be difficult in many ways, whether it was political strife or training for the army of death.
The shadow cast by Yeonhojeong was large and dark. Before he knew it, his presence remained strong not only to Muk Fei but also to the leaders of his father, Zhuge Wenhu, a Yanwei soldier, and Meng.
“Are you going to train the Mortal Army?”
“yes. “We also have to deliver light armor.”
“I get it.”
Yeonwi, who was about to leave Pagungak first, asked as if he had suddenly remembered something.
“Are you okay with the time in the evening?”
“yes? Ah yes! are you okay.”
“I guess my work will be over by the time I get married. “If the time permits, let’s have a meal together.”
Mukbi smiled brightly.
“yes!”
* * *
Yeon Ho-jeong and his party, who left the Murim Alliance, passed through Hubei and headed toward Gwiju Castle.
The presumed location of Yangcheon was Changsha, the capital of Hunan Province.
If you wanted to take the shortest route, there would be no problem if you came down to Hubuk, crossed the river, and entered straight into Honam. However, Yeonhojeong adhered to secret movements from the time he joined the alliance.
When Dang Sang-ah asked the reason, Yeon Ho-jeong answered as follows.
“They are keeping a close eye on the Murim Alliance. They might even be investigating people coming and going. If that’s the case, we’ll have no choice but to be even more concerned about those heading to the base.”
It was a simple yet valid reason. It would be a bit of a long way back, but it was definitely necessary.
Yeon Ho-jeong trusted his own judgment, and Gaeung-sang and Jegal A-yeon judged his words to be trustworthy.
“And senior.”
“You tell me.”
“Senior, please enter western Honam first.”
Paeyul raised his eyebrows.
“alone?”
“This is to reduce suspicion. “If you go first and take a seat, we’ll take our time and turn around.”
“Does that have any meaning?”
“of course.”
“I see. “I don’t know what you’re doing that for.”
The group, excluding Paeyul, passed through the southwest of Hubei and entered Guizhou Province in one month.
If he had made up his mind and used the divine law, he would have reached the distance several days faster than that. It was delayed because we had to move carefully.
So the group entered a small guest house in the northernmost part of Guizhou Province.
“Whew, I guess I’ll live a little longer now.”
Full-sang scratched his head.
“Thank you for your hard work. “This is a guesthouse operated by the main room, so you can rest in peace.”
The group started by taking a bath in hot water to relieve the accumulated fatigue. One surprising thing is that Full Sang went to wash first.
Zhuge Yan asked mischievously.
“Then aren’t you really going to be kicked out of your post?”
“Just what I was hoping for.”
If you want to infiltrate the enemy’s territory directly, you must not be exposed to the degree of openness. In the end, Gaeun-sang had no choice but to break the rules.
The sight of Full-sang, who had removed all the old grime and appeared wearing a white cloth over a well-fitting military uniform, was truly surprising.
Zhuge Zhenyeon opened his mouth like a crucian carp.
“Wow! “Is that right?”
“Then who could it be?”
“How dare you hide your face like this in the world? “I always wash up!”
“Why does a beggar wash with water so wastefully?”
Full-sang grumbled, but it was actually worth making such noises.
Not only was he quite tall and had a solid physique, but he also had clear five senses, and his appearance was enough to make you admire him. He was so young that it seemed like he could be considered a nobleman just by looking at his well-dressed appearance.
Dang Sang-ah secretly asked Yeon Ho-jeong.
“Will Hu-kai also enter the enemy camp?”
“That’s right. Because we need to deliver news from both sides quickly. In fact, even without all that, it’s hard to find someone as good at improvisation as that guy.”
“okay.”
“why? Is there something wrong with you?”
“Something crucial is at stake.”
Yeon Ho-jeong blinked.
“what is that?”
“It’s the discrepancy between appearance and speech.”
That was a sharp point.
His appearance is no different from that of a nobleman, but his manner of speaking is so informal that even a civil servant would turn a blind eye. This was a much more serious problem than I thought.
Full-sang looked at Yeonho-jeong with sad eyes.
“Do I really have to change my way of speaking? Isn’t that right? “Please tell me no.”
Yeon Ho-jeong said in a shaky voice.
“Because there are many people with strong personalities in the world. On the contrary, that aspect may seem naive.”
“Hehe, I thought you would understand me!”
“Still, I recommend that you remain quiet if possible…”
The group, all sobered, finished eating and gathered in one room.
Full-sang quenched his appetite.
“It’s definitely humid in Guizhou. Even though it’s winter soon.”
Zhuge Yan received his words.
“They say that if you do something wrong, you will end up suffering from an endemic disease. “The humidity is high and the vegetation is thick, so there are a lot of bugs.”
“Bugs are just enough for daily food when you’re hungry.”
“Yuck.”
“Why is this like this? Then starve to death? I have to survive by chewing bugs. Isn’t that right, Dan Soje?”
Tang Sang-ah said with an awkward expression.
“I’ve never eaten it before…”
“Ugh?”
Full Sang tilted his head.
“Dang Sojeo also learned the poison technique, right? Have you ever slept while practicing solo attack? “There are so many poisonous insects in the world.”
“Learning poison doesn’t make you eat bugs. Of course, I don’t really have any objection to bugs, but…”
“Huh, really?”
Tang Sang-ah cleared his throat. Although she wasn’t a shy person, she couldn’t help but feel burdened by Moon Geun-sang’s extreme friendliness.
“Now, let’s get things sorted out.”
Yeon Ho-jeong clapped his hands to attract attention and continued.
“You may have heard before, but from now on, we belong to the Martial Order Gate.”
The Mujongmun was a mysterious sect known to have gone extinct over a hundred years ago.
Surprisingly, their martial arts skills were evaluated as not being significantly inferior to those of the Old Daemun faction. This is because there was not a single weak person among the martial arts people who declared themselves to be from the Mujongmun at that time.
However, there were also evaluations that their martial arts skills were inconsistent.
Shaolin Temple Shaolin Temple’s own volcanic sect, just as each sect has its own martial arts characteristics, there is a flow of martial arts pursued by each sect, but there was no such thing in the Mujong mun. Their martial arts boasted a variety of depths, as if masters from various sects gathered together to form a sect.
However, after going down the path of extinction for some reason about a hundred years ago, the name of Mujongmun was no longer heard.
“It has been forgotten by the world, and there are so many different types of martial arts, so there will be no suspicion even if we each use different martial arts.”
The three men and women nodded.
Yeon Ho-jeong pointed to Full Sang.
“But it’s best to be careful with your titles. From now on, Hugae will be in charge of executing this group.”
“Do I really have to take care of that?”
“You’re the oldest.”
“Then what is the loss rate?”
“Senior, this is your private residence.”
“I’m young, but what about the youngest?”
“Let’s move on.”
“Tsk.”
Yeon Ho-jeong looked at Dang Sang-ah.
“Soldier Dang Sang-ah is the second. “The reason is the same.”
“yes.”
“And I am the third. The fourth is zinc.”
Zhuge Zhen was furious.
“Hey, why am I the youngest? I’m a year older than you! “I’m giving this to my friend, so even my sister doesn’t know.”
“I am the one who needs to move the most. Moreover, anyone who is quick-witted can tell that my martial arts skills are the deepest among the three. “Even if you are the third child, it will feel strange if you introduce him as the youngest.”
“Okay.”
It wasn’t wrong. Still, as if he couldn’t help but feel dissatisfied, Jegal Zhen’s mouth popped out.
Yeon Ho-jeong’s eyes gave off a serious glow.
“Based on the information so far, there is a high probability that Yangcheon is located in Changsha, Hunan Province. However, considering the scale of the Black Islands he has controlled so far, it can be said that his eyes are spread over the entire Hunan Province.”
Full-sang nodded.
“The reports from the disciples here are similar. “The moment you enter Hunan Province, your eyes will follow you.”
“But I won’t travel along mountain paths or waterways.”
“If I go to Guando confidently, there won’t be any suspicion, right?”
“exactly.”
Yeon Ho-jeong said to Dang Sang-ah.
“In other words, your capabilities will be needed as soon as we enter Hunan Province.”
“yes? “My abilities?”
Come to think of it, I haven’t heard anything about my role in this mission.
Tang Sang-ah was embarrassed. It was absurd to think to myself that I had never thought of such an obvious thing until now.
“What can I do?”
Yeon Ho-jeong smiled coldly.
A very ominous smile. Ga Deuk-sang clicked his tongue, saying, ‘It’s the beginning again.’ Jegal Zhen-yeon was disgusted.
“If the eyes of the black sword are focused on us, immediately kill it with a memorized weapon.”
