Dark and Light Martial Emperor - Chapter 202
Episode 202
Nangjungjichu (囊中之錐) (2)
“What?”
“That is…”
the illusionist said, swallowing his saliva.
“The main master of the Flame Ark has been destroyed and the Flame Ark has been defeated.”
Defeated? This was another strange report.
Yeommabang was the Bangpa whom he personally placed in the last position of the thirty-six gates. Bangpa’s power was at a level that made you yawn, but at least their mental power and loyalty were real.
In other words, it means that it is a sect that was recruited with the intention of raising it. But even so, it’s still just a half-baby.
Are you reporting that the Ark has been defeated, not that the Enma Bang has been wiped out?
‘There’s something there.’
Yang Chen was a smart person. He is a person who knows how to think about why he is making a report like this rather than asking why he is posting such a report because it is a waste of time.
“Yeomma Bang’s power is the lowest among the thirty-six gates. The Ark guy didn’t do much either. “There are countless warriors in Hunan Province who can beat him.”
“Of course it is, but this time it was a little different.”
“Explain.”
“That is…”
The doctor hesitated.
Yang Chen frowned.
‘Why is this guy like this?’
Among those who worked under him, the twelve, called the twelve gods of the zodiac, were experts, and it would not be an exaggeration to say that they were the strongest in the black sword.
As good as its military power is, its distribution is good and its ability to handle tasks is also excellent. But what is that face of the illusionist?
“Is it difficult to explain?”
“Oh no! However, I felt that there might be some misunderstanding in the process of conveying this matter.”
The doctor took out a letter from his pocket. It was a fairly thick letter.
“So, I have written only the facts clearly. “Please forgive me for causing you trouble.”
The corners of Yang Chen’s mouth rose.
The Hwansa was a person who looked disheveled at first glance. But he is thoughtful and cautious. In that respect, he was Yang Cheon’s favorite servant.
Ugh.
The floating letter was caught in Yang Chen’s hand.
“Please wait a moment.”
“yes.”
Sigh.
Yang Chen opened the letter.
The letter was quite long. It seemed like quite a lot had happened so far.
Yangcheon was reading the letter with an interesting face.
Soon his eyes became more serious.
“Is it true?”
“I have only clearly stated the facts. All my personal opinions are excluded. “I thought it was right for the Vice Lord to make the decision.”
Interest arose on Yang Cheon’s face.
“Wujongmun (武宗門)?”
It was a sect that few people remember these days.
However, in Yang Cheon’s mind, Mujongmun existed. This is because it was a sect with unique characteristics that were difficult to forget.
It was said that the Mujongmun was a sect formed by masters of each martial art.
That was the rumor, but no one knew the truth. What is important is that the martial arts of the martial arts experts from the martial arts clan were all outstanding, and their types and origins were all different.
‘I heard that it went extinct a hundred years ago.’
Of course, it is not known how it became extinct. The group called Mujongmun was truly a group full of suspicion and mystery.
And now something worth noting.
“Memorize it…”
A faint smile appeared on Yang Chen’s face.
‘This is really elaborate.’
Currently, he needed someone who could properly handle poison and memorization.
I don’t want 4,000-level technology. Of course, it would be nice to have that level of skill, but in the martial arts of the time, there was not a single school that was as well versed in poison and memorization as the Tang family.
It was enough to just be a master of cancer technology, one of the best in martial arts, excluding Dangga.
“You’re quick to notice.”
“That’s right.”
The secret agents and informants of the Black Island are fundamentally different from the powerful people of the White Island.
Historically, heukdo pursued stealth rather than strength and survival rather than skill. Naturally, the direction of development was bound to be different from that of Baekdo.
That was the first time Yangcheon was surprised by the skill of the black sword. Even when he had completed his martial arts skills to a certain extent, he did not know that a group of black swordsmen were watching him.
‘In other words, they immediately recognized and killed the informants of the dark island, which were difficult for even the most accomplished masters to recognize.’
A strong desire arose in Yang Chen’s eyes.
‘I want it.’
Excellent cancer technology. Extremely keen eye.
Furthermore, in front of the Bangpa of Heukdo Island, he confidently shouted that he wanted to meet Tuwang.
‘He’s cocky, but I actually like that cockiness.’
To be precise, this is far from being cocky.
Yang Cheon, who looked at the contents of the letter one more time, imagined that among them was a young man who had defeated the main master of Yeomma Bang with his bare hands.
“It has been irreparably damaged… The hands are cruel. But your skills are really good. “Now that I am old enough, I have overpowered many of my enemies.”
Since he developed a high level of martial arts skills at a young age, it is natural for him to become arrogant.
However, after reading the details in the letter several times, I felt that there was something different about this guy.
‘This guy has no qualms.’
If you know the existence of Tuwang, it means that you also know something about this situation.
In other words, it has its own information power. In that case, it is impossible not to know about the power of the Seongcheon Thirteen Chairs.
No matter how energetic a young man is, it is difficult to find a person who can say without hesitation that he wants to meet Tuwang, both in black and white.
‘I can’t be sure from the letter alone. However, if my guess is correct…’
Yang Chen’s face turned slightly red. He was quite excited.
“This guy uses persuasion?”
“That’s right.”
“Your practical skills are excellent and your fundamental martial arts skills are also good. “If you have this level of skill, you will be no less than the Ilyongsambong (一龍三鳳) that the Baekdo guys praise so much.”
A girl who has a keen insight into the informants of the dark island and uses extremely advanced dark techniques.
At the age of the terms and conditions, he not only possesses Baekdo’s best martial arts skills, but also proudly declares that he wants to meet Tuwang.
“You want to meet me? It’s good. “I have to let you meet me.”
An unusual light appeared in Yang Cheon’s eyes.
“Only if they are really descendants of the Martial Order.”
* * *
“What?!”
“You’re killing your voice.”
Full-sang looked around.
Fortunately, Tang Sang’er and Zhuge Yan were not nearby. There was only a loss rate on the side.
Full-sang was impressed.
“Then, the reason you brought Tang Xiaoje was because you knew that Yang Chen wanted an expert in memorization?”
“That’s right.”
Yeon Ho-jeong still treated him like a great brother, but Cheung Geun-sang was different. He was not in the mood to match the rhythm.
Paeyul asked.
“Why does that guy want to be an expert in cancer technology?”
Of course, it was like that in the past.
But aside from that, Yeonhojeong would also have been like that if it had been located in Yangcheon.
“It’s because of efficiency issues.”
“efficiency?”
“That’s right.”
“Please explain in detail.”
“Black Island has a different growth background than white Island. “You know that, right?”
I don’t know…?
Paeyul glanced at Full Sang.
Full-sang looked disapproving, but explained in the most polite tone possible.
“Baekdo, or political faction, is a moral utopia created by the people’s wishes.”
“A moral utopia?”
“The highest values of Baekdo are loyalty and justice. “We pursue the world of peace that the majority of humans desire, which is a concentration of the ideology of destroying evil on the side of the weak and benefiting the world.”
Paeyul nodded.
I just advocated a path of about 100 degrees and never thought deeply about it. But after hearing it like this, I definitely understood it.
“yes. That’s why we also value benevolence, righteousness, and wisdom.”
“That’s right. But blackness is different. “The black path can be seen as the remains of aspirations that failed to soar to a moral utopia.”
“That’s such a headache. “A remnant of a wish?”
Yeon Ho-jeong received Gaeul-sang’s words.
“If the white island is the people’s utopia, the black island is the people’s reality.”
“It’s reality…”
“They steal, kill, humiliate, and oppress. It is no different from the world of beasts. From the perspective that humans are also a species that makes up Mother Nature, Black Island can be said to be a world that maximizes human nature and animal instincts.”
“Hmm.”
It was a unique explanation.
No one has ever explained white and black in this way. So it was interesting and surprisingly easy to understand.
“So the two paths developed in completely different directions. “The Baekdo, which has been stretched out in a straight line by the people’s wishes, has developed a clear system of power, power, formality, and law.”
“Heukdo is different.”
“That’s right. There is nothing like that in Heukdo. They do not look far and only focus on immediate survival. If I can survive today, that’s enough. “Their world is not stable, so there is no time to safely store up strength.”
“why?”
“Because the law has been broken.”
Paeyul’s eyes lit up.
“Right. “Even if you are lucky enough to obtain the highest level of learning, you might get stabbed to death by a thief while practicing it.”
“That’s right.”
“These are things we really can’t afford. “Is that also because the law has been broken?”
Yeon Ho-jeong had a look of bitterness on his face.
“People say That the world should be fair and just. If you interpret the words the other way, it means that the world is still unfair and unjust.”
“…!”
“The ideal pursued by politics has always been that way. And it always failed. The reality hasn’t gotten any better. Rather, the gap between ideals and reality has only grown.”
“That’s a… sad story.”
“But you still have to pursue your ideals. If we don’t stretch out our hands to reach the sky, we will all just become animals wandering around under the ground. “The minimum rules are broken down.”
“hmm.”
Yeon Ho-jeong’s eyes lit up.
“Back to the black path, in the end, they can never defeat the white path with force. “Unless the fundamental problem is resolved.”
“Because there are no minimum rules, you cannot develop your strength.”
“yes. And Yang Cheon probably knows that too. “Heukdo’s intelligence and survival capabilities are great, but to truly fight against the enemy, real power is needed.”
At that moment, Paeyul let out a sigh.
“ah! So memorize it?!”
“That’s right.”
Yeon Ho-jeong raised his fist.
“Even a child who has not yet mastered martial arts can kill a master if given poison and memorization. “If Yangcheon has the will, he will try to fix Heukdo’s chronic problems from the root, but the problem is time.”
“Until the Black Sword is fully armed, we need poison and memorization, which have the highest killing power in the martial arts, to ensure survival.”
“That’s right.”
Paeyul whetted his appetite.
“I understand why you brought a woman from the party.”
“….”
Full Sang glared at Yeon Ho Jeong with scary eyes.
“Yeon Gongja.”
This time, Yeonho-jeong could not treat him like an ambassador.
“Please speak.”
“You are my friend. And I thought you were not the kind of person who would make a wrong decision, even if you made a radical one.”
“….”
“But this time it was too much. You came here without knowing anything. “It’s like you’ve dragged in an unrelated person just by asking them to come because you need them.”
“What do you mean by that?”
“What?”
Yeon Ho-jeong’s eyes became cold.
“If I were to argue, I have a lot to say, but for now I will just say one thing.”
“….”
“In order to deal with those who fight without rules, we also have to put aside our morals for a moment.”
Full-sang shouted.
“That’s the problem when you face them! Even though you could have explained it to the party leader in advance…!”
“What if she won’t come?”
“Then we’ll have to find another way!”
“You can’t do that.”
“why!!”
“Because I can’t fail.”
Gaeun-sang, who was looking at Yeon Ho-jeong with eyes full of anger, turned around and walked out.
Paeyul cleared his throat.
“That guy was quite temperamental.”
“He is a good person.”
“Yes?”
Yeon Ho-jeong smiled. It was a strange smile mixed with bitterness and stubbornness.
“The righteousness and simplicity of Hugai, hidden behind humor and a harsh impression, are the symbol of Baekdo.”
“….”
“So I like the afterlife. “Because Hugae is a true cooperative that cannot exist in this world.”
“But it looks like that bastard is disappointed in you, the leader of the working group. What should I do if it interferes with the mission?”
“There is no problem.”
“Are you confident?”
“yes.”
“why?”
Yeon Ho-jeong closed his eyes.
“Still, I believe that Hugae will understand me.”
two days later.
Seven masters, their entire bodies covered in black blood-like clothing, appeared in the Yeomma Room that had been taken over by Yeon Ho-jeong and his party.
“Who are these people who claim to be descendants of the Mujongmun?”
