Dark and Light Martial Emperor - Chapter 261
Episode 261
Discovery of Fire (5)
“….”
The silence between father and daughter was longer than expected.
The warm tea was already cold. The tea scent that filled the room slowly disappeared.
How much time has passed like that?
“It’s pretty late.”
The official spoke in his characteristic stubborn voice.
“It’s already been a few days since you went deaf, so why bother coming to say hello to Abby?”
Tang Sang-ah answered in a calm voice.
“I belong to the Tangma Army. “I had to return to Tangma County and complete my schedule that I had put off.”
“Before you are a Tangma soldier, you are a member of the Tang family.”
“He was planning to give up the Tang clan and send it to Commander Moyong.”
“….”
“I already gave up the Tang family name halfway. Could it be that I misunderstood?”
The official’s cheek twitched.
“So, have you decided to marry Commander Moyong?”
“Not yet.”
bang!
The table shook and the teacup fell over.
The sound of tea dripping onto the floor caused a strange discomfort.
“The reason I turned a blind eye to your self-indulgence was because you were my child and the Tang clan. However, if you truly abandon the Tang family name, then from then on I will no longer treat you as a child.”
“You already talked about that before going out.”
“What?!”
“I’m telling you clearly, it was the father who tried to kick out his daughter by citing the family history.”
“…!”
“I am the one who should be upset and angry, so why does my father keep getting angry? “You really don’t think of me as a soulless doll, do you?”
“…if it was a doll.”
The official growled.
“If I were a doll that couldn’t speak, I wouldn’t have asked you to understand my choice.”
“I understand. But the disappointment and anger are all mine.”
“you!”
“father.”
Tang Sang-ah smiled and said.
“Don’t be angry with me.”
“….”
“Your father brought it all on himself. You must take responsibility for what you have done. I definitely learned that way when I was young. “To my father and no one else.”
The officer’s fist gained strength.
Dang Sang-ah continued.
“I actually came here to get angry, but seeing my father like this makes me suffocate.”
“…scram.”
“Let’s take responsibility first.”
“What responsibility!”
“It should have been me who was angry, but instead you stabbed me in the chest. “You have to take responsibility for it.”
The official felt dispirited.
“Are you threatening me with such nonsense?!”
“If you don’t want to take responsibility, how about a favor?”
“what?!”
“If you still think of me as Mr. Tang, would you please do me a favor?”
“noisy! “I will no longer consider you my child, so get here now…!”
“There is one person I rely on a lot as a person. Oh, don’t get me wrong. “There are no feelings of love.”
“…?!”
“Would you please meet that person?”
Tang Guan glared at Tang Shang’er without saying a word.
Tang Sang’er took out the letter from her arms and placed it on the table.
“This is my last request as a child. “I hope you’ll listen.”
“….”
“I won’t be visiting you again in the future. Please take care of yourself.”
After saying those words, Tang Sang-ah stood up.
There was no hesitation whatsoever in turning around and walking. The official thought as he watched his daughter take a step toward calming down.
Although the relationship is stained with hatred and resentment, Tang Sang-er is also a member of the Tang family. That stubborn determination is something that no one can show.
The official said before Tang Sang-ah left the door.
“Giving up the Tang family name is the same as saying that you will give up all the martial arts of the Tang family that you have learned.”
“….”
“I think you understand what I mean.”
“Matriarch.”
I call him matriarch, not father. The official felt his face turn red.
Tang Sang-ah smiled.
“This is a life you have already given up before setting off.”
“…!”
“If you want to take it, please do so. “Let’s wait.”
thud!
The door was closed.
The official, who was glaring at the door with eyes full of anger, soon let out a sigh.
“You are better. “It seems like you are more poisonous than this father who points his finger at the whole world for being poisonous.”
The official, who had been mocking himself for a while, suddenly turned his attention to the letter on the table.
He was looking at the letter and stretched out his hand.
* * *
Whiiiiing.
The sharp wind that swept through tree after tree, dulling the blade, brushed against my collar.
Before I knew it, the sunset was setting across the sky. The sun sets significantly earlier in winter than in summer.
The person’s face was also red as he looked at the blood-red sky.
‘It’s red.’
It was quite a beautiful view. Although it was a forest that was not well known even within the Murim League, it had surprisingly beautiful scenery.
Of course, the hotel was not in a state to comfortably enjoy the scenery. It was because I still felt uncomfortable from the conversation with my daughter a while ago.
‘I was the one who abandoned it first…?’
The doctor’s eyes were bloodshot.
‘Are you throwing it away? Don’t express it that way. The owner of the main house can only be a man. No matter how much you accumulate flying and crawling skills, you will never be able to become the head of the family.’
My daughter’s face came to mind.
My daughter’s face was always smiling, but underneath it all, she carried a deeper sense of emptiness than anyone else.
‘Father was wrong. Keeping family traditions is not a simple thing. Tradition is meaningful in itself.’
For the sake of tradition, if the family can shine on a solid rock, they will be stubborn or obstinate. And it will pour deadly poison into the mouths of those who click their tongues while watching it.
‘I am not wrong!’
It was then.
Sabak. Sabak.
The sound of stepping on snow was heard from afar.
‘You’re here.’
The official turned around.
‘What kind of guy is this…’
At that moment, the officer’s eyes widened.
“You?!”
“It’s too much to say that it was you from the beginning.”
Young Yeon Ho-jeong smiled calmly.
“How are you?”
“…Surely it was you who asked my daughter to meet me?”
“exactly.”
Pusssss.
An eerie dark green glow emanated from Tang Gwan’s body.
The party was extremely angry and had no choice but to reveal the enormous power it had kept hidden until now.
Cheeeeeeeee!
The five-field radius of the land on which he stood began to melt at an alarming rate.
Not only did the snow melt. Even the surface of the frozen ground became soggy.
Admiration appeared on Yeon Ho-jeong’s face.
“This is truly an amazing attack. “It seems like you’ve become even more toxic than before?”
“How dare you use my daughter to call me out?”
“It’s a bit difficult for me to have to take advantage of my daughter, who has common sense, just to meet someone like you.”
“What?!”
“That’s it. Isn’t good good good? “Let’s leave that bizarre energy behind and just talk to me.”
“This guy!”
“or not.”
Flash!
Life flashed in Yeon Ho-jeong’s eyes.
“Would you like to calm down if two curse words come out of this little guy’s mouth like before?”
“…!”
“I have not yet forgotten the Hongyohoe incident. Of course, I decided to bury the matter, but the feelings remained. “I can’t help but criticize you for being narrow-minded.”
Yeon Ho-jeong smiled brightly.
“Don’t let harsh words come out of your mouth. You have already walked a long way. Listen to what you have to say and then go.”
“Wrong.”
“hmm?”
“I came here at the request of my daughter, but if I had known it was you, I would never have come. In other words, you stole the time of the head of the Four Thousand Danga Family.”
Slurp.
The poison that had been spreading in all directions was instantly returned to his body.
It was surprisingly fast. Releasing this much power at once was an incredible feat, but collecting the released energy in an instant was also impossible with ordinary enlightenment.
Indeed, the head of the Sicheondang family. It was a skill worthy of claiming to be the master of the Sixth Generation.
“It is up to me to judge whether it was worth coming here. “If it’s not that important, I will turn you into a handful of blood, even if it means putting you in prison.”
It was a voice full of sincerity. His eyes were not filled with pride or rolled with anger like before.
Living quietly and fatally. Tang Gwan truly decided to kill Yeon Ho-jeong.
‘That’s interesting.’
Yeon Ho-jeong smiled.
‘I tried to attack him after shaking him up with nonsense, but he was already shaken like he was going to be shaken, right?’
Somehow, I felt like I knew the reason. His feelings were probably very complicated after his conversation with Tang Sang-ah.
“I doubt if you can kill me with your skills.”
“Where would you like to check?”
“Okay, OK. However, I am also a busy person, so let’s get to the point first.”
Before the official had time to reply, Yeon Ho-jeong continued.
“What do you want? “Maengju?”
“…?!”
“Let’s hear the answer first.”
The official’s expression suddenly changed.
No matter how angry I was, there were words I could ignore and words I couldn’t ignore.
The public officials were already busy keeping an eye on each other due to the upcoming elections next year. In such a situation, you suddenly want to become a leader?
“…What kind of nonsense is that?”
“You don’t know that you also have a desire for power. However, I know what Mr. Moyong wants, but I don’t know what kind of position you want.”
“…!”
“Tell me. “Is it the position of Murim lord that you want?”
“I knew for a long time that he was a cocky guy, but this is truly beyond my imagination.”
“Well, since he is the head of stubborn idiots who mistakenly believe that the Sichuan Dang Family is the best in martial arts, there is no way he would be interested in the leader position. “I’ll move on.”
“Crazy guy! Are you really crazy because you want to die?!”
“You can never escape the Murim Alliance.”
“what?”
“You must have known that Prince Moyong had begun preliminary work to slander the public ambassador, right?”
“…?!”
The official’s eyes suddenly changed.
Yeon Ho-jeong was able to see through the change like a ghost.
‘I do not know?’
Even if it was really Mr. Moyong who did it, the authorities may not know.
To be exact, I thought it was a 50% chance. Since the nature of the hotel was so sharp, there was probably no need to take the risk of informing them.
At the same time, things can go much more smoothly if our office helps. So I thought it was a 50% chance.
‘It may not have been Moyong-gun’s doing. However, there is a high probability that it was Moyong-gun’s doing. Then…’
The corner of Yeon Ho-jeong’s mouth rose.
“It seems Moyong didn’t tell you. “Then it seems I was right.”
“What bullshit are you talking about?”
“Moyong-gun will not let you go. The reason is because you want to become powerful in a subject that has no interest in being the Murim Lord.”
“…!”
“Do you think you have formed an alliance with Prince Moyong? gibberish. “Maybe you think you can control Moyonggun as you wish, but in reality, it’s the opposite.”
Yeon Ho-jeong chuckled.
“Do you know that Mr. Moyong is taking good care of it so that he can use it as a throwaway card?”
“…!!”
“If we reveal that we planned to slander this public ambassador, who do you think Prince Moyong will point to as the culprit?”
The official’s eyes wavered.
Yeon Ho-jeong said in a gloomy voice.
“To Prince Moyong, you are ultimately just another ally.”
