Dark and Light Martial Emperor - Chapter 411

Episode 411

Shake (5)

The eyes of the young man who was holding the dagger in a strange way, as if holding it, were extremely dark.

‘I couldn’t reach it.’

The blade of the dagger was very sharp.

Decent thickness, appropriate length, and decent handle.

It wasn’t a commonly seen item, but it wasn’t something worth paying a fortune for either. At least that was how it seemed on the outside.

‘They should have stuck this thing into his body. If I had done that, I would never have survived.’

Two-headed poisonous rain.

After regaining his memory, it was Sima Hyun’s unique killing method that he had honed over the past three years solely to kill the evil spirit.

In reality, it was just a killing method, and it had to be seen as Sima Xuan’s unique method designed to kill the evil spirit.

Except for the intangible poison of the Four Heavenly Danga, there is no poison that can penetrate the Yin God, which is a combination of the Yin Hwa Red Ryu and the Yin Han Baek Ryu.

There is no chance of victory in a direct confrontation, and assassination is even more impossible. In other words, the only options left are to hope to die in a natural disaster or dream of being murdered by someone else’s hands.

Naturally, Sima Xuan could not wait until then, and he definitely wanted to take revenge with his own hands.

So, the two-headed poison monument was created with great effort over three years.

Since most extreme poisons don’t work, amplify the poison’s power with synthetic poison and temporarily reduce the opponent’s vitality to near nothingness.

If I had fully known the manufacturing method of the unique poisonous Sahwamun (death flower pattern) that has been passed down from generation to generation, I would not have come up with this method.

However, the master of Yinshin Simahyeon and the Ganja of the Four Eumsect did not give him any information about the Four Flowers Gate.

In order to be recognized as a Yin God, one had to learn several secret arts. Sima Xuan learned most of them on his own, but he only knew the basics of the recipe for Sihwamun.

That’s why I created a poison dagger that is not a one-hit killer, but a two-stroke killer. A secret art of death in which the opponent has no choice but to die.

‘Damn it.’

Sima Xuan gritted his teeth without realizing it.

‘I should have held back.’

He recalled that moment.

The moment when Yeonhojeong’s chains were shot at the Yayul enemy at terrifying speed.

Even though he was walking in a lower realm than them, Sima Xuan could still tell. I could intuit it.

The Yayul enemy knew that they could block Yeonhojeong’s attack. Regardless of whether it would work properly, they were already preparing for Yeonhojeong’s attack.

Furthermore, Yayuljeok was thinking of running away. This was a fact that could be known because only the Yayul enemy was observed from the start of the fight until the end.

The enemy’s flight.

Sima Xuan couldn’t bear it.

If you miss this spot, you will never be able to catch it again. Rather, after he gets himself together, he will come to assassinate him.

And he himself can never stop the secret attack of the evil spirit. So I had to finish everything on the spot.

Grumbling.

Sima Xuan closed his eyes.

‘no.’

He blamed himself.

‘Maybe it was all my imagination.’

I know enough about the body of sound. In particular, after the marriage spell was broken, they monitored his every move and tried to understand his words, actions, and habits.

But what if the sound deceived you?

What if the appearance you show to the outside world is all made up, not necessarily because of you?

In normal cases, this is impossible. However, this does not apply to the sound body. Moreover, leaving everything else aside, he was said to be a spy dispatched to the central plains by an unidentified group outside of the shadows.

It means that they are better than anyone else at hiding and hiding it. Moreover, seeing as he even cast a spell on himself, it seemed like he had many abilities that he didn’t even know about.

‘In the end, it doesn’t change the fact that I made the situation worse.’

Deep.

The dagger fell from my hand and hit the ground.

It was a tool that was sharpened again and again without a single day of rest. It was so sharp that even though I didn’t throw it and just fell naturally, half of the blade stuck in the ground.

I was able to see how hard Sima Hyeon lived to get that one chance.

“What are you doing?”

flinch!

Sima Hyeon turned his head.

Yeonhojeong was standing there.

“I knew he was a dull guy from the first time we met, but I didn’t think he was the type of person to be alone.”

Sima Hyeon looked at Yeon Hao-jeong in silence.

There was no expression on Yeon Ho-jeong’s face. In other words, it was close to expressionless, but it didn’t look cold or indifferent either.

After a while, Sima Xuan opened his mouth.

“Is it time?”

“When?”

“Because of me, you missed your target and your subordinate is in danger of death.”

“however?”

“You’re the one who came to kill me.”

Yeon Ho-jeong thought. This guy’s personality definitely doesn’t suit that of an assassin.

If he were an ordinary assassin, he would only care about missing his target and not that his subordinates were injured.

Regardless of nature, anyone who lives in such an environment has no choice but to do that. However, Sima Hyeon ‘understood’ Yeon Hao-jeong’s anger and self-blame for almost losing his subordinate.

Understanding others begins with empathy. Contrary to his words and actions, Sima Xuan was also a great man who knew how to take care of his people.

“If you thought I would, why were you waiting here?”

“It’s dangerous no matter where you go now.”

The corners of Yeon Ho-jeong’s mouth rose.

There’s an expression, but I still can’t feel anything.

“I wonder if that bastard will launch a secret attack?”

“exactly.”

It was an honest answer.

Yeon Ho-jeong shook his head.

“There is no need to worry about that. “At least for the time being.”

“Why is that?”

“The Murimmaeng is targeting that guy. Moreover, we even had a cool fight. “Do you think there’s even a little brat like you left in his head right now?”

“…!”

“Are you overly self-conscious? Or was his perspective narrowed due to the shock of failing to seek revenge? Now he’s trying hard to get his base back after being robbed. “I don’t even care about you.”

“….”

Sima Xuan’s expression did not change. He just watches Yeon Ho-jeong with slightly shaking eyes.

“And I have no intention of killing you either.”

“Why is that?”

“Why?”

“Aren’t you angry? “You lost him because of me?”

“I’m angry. “I was very angry with you.”

“But why?”

“If you kill everyone just because you’re angry, is that a mindless murderer or a person? Well, my enemies might see me that way.”

“…Why don’t you at least slap me on the cheek.”

“Do you want to feel at ease?”

“….”

“You’re in no condition to talk properly. But I’m busy. So, I have to force you to come to your senses.”

“What do you mean?”

Yeon Ho-jeong folded his arms proudly.

“Aren’t you angry? right. I was very angry at you too. But the person I am most angry with is not you, but myself.”

Sima Xuan’s eyes deepened.

“Me?”

“Anger at my inability to fend off even a surprise attack from a brat like you. Anger at myself for being stupid enough to not have anticipated the actions of an easy guy like you.”

“…!”

“In the end, it is my fault. I knew you were a clumsy guy. Nevertheless, I was so absorbed in my own growth that I failed to take it into consideration. “It’s a painful mistake.”

Sima Xuan’s eyes trembled slightly.

Yeon Ho-jeong continued.

“In the same sense, you can say that my subordinate was hurt because of you, but in the end, my biggest fault was not being able to properly convey information about you to my subordinate.”

“It’s not because of me?”

“It’s because of you. And it’s also because of me. “The only thing that matters is which part I feel greater responsibility for.”

“….”

“If you feel even the slightest bit sorry, please at least apologize to my subordinate later. “That’s enough for me.”

“Maybe he’s not your subordinate.”

“That’s your situation and my subordinate’s situation.”

“….”

“Just say one more word. Don’t look at my subordinates too sparingly. There are times when he appears like a fool, but he is so big-hearted that he can’t even be compared to a brat like you who doesn’t know how to wait for revenge. “I won’t even understand why you’re apologizing.”

Sima Xuan’s face distorted slightly.

“I don’t feel sorry for your subordinate. “We weren’t even colleagues to begin with, so you just told me to protect you as you please.”

“So what?”

“….”

“If you’re not sorry, don’t apologize. “If you make an apology full of pretense, all you can do is make fun of the other person.”

“Are you sure you don’t hate me?”

“Do you want me to hate you? “Do you want me to kill you right now?”

“….”

“What’s so confusing is none of my business. What matters is now. If you have no hostility towards me, I won’t care whether you follow me or not. “But I don’t want you to follow along without being of any help.”

Sima Hyeon, who was looking up at Yeon Hao-jeong, pulled out the dagger stuck in the ground, cleaned it, and put it in his arms.

“What do you want to know from me?”

“All about wildness.”

“….”

“Currently, Yayuljeok, your master and enemy, Yinshin, is stationed near Yaseong with nine hundred elite assassins.”

For a moment, Sima Xuan’s eyes caught fire.

It is said that the enemy, whom we almost missed forever, is stationed near Yaseong. That fact revitalized his spirit, which had lost motivation.

At the same time, I was puzzled.

‘Near the wilderness… why on earth?’

Stationing literally means lining up assassins like soldiers and waiting for the right moment to attack, but that was not a strategy that an assassin could come up with.

Assassins always assume the worst. It is standard practice to create at least a secondary or tertiary safe house in case the main camp is robbed, and of course, Yinshin Yayuljeok also has numerous safe houses hidden in Guangdong.

Yeon Ho-jeong’s eyes became dull.

“Isn’t it strange? There’s no need for that. “In fact, they are targeting us in the wild, as if they are openly summoning their troops, as if they had hidden themselves more closely.”

“…That’s strange.”

“It’s because of Saeumgyo.”

“…?!”

“This guy is a spy for the Saeum Church. And now we need to inform the main base about this situation. Anyone carrying out operations in a foreign country, whether it is Sejak or anything else, has an obligation to immediately report any sudden changes in the situation. “It’s the same in any organization, regardless of whether it’s the midfielder or the new team.”

“Are you saying that he is trying to retake the main base in order to contact the Four Eums or something?”

“Even if it doesn’t mean we can recapture it, there is definitely a reason to stop by at least once. “I think it is to send information to the Saeumgyo.”

“…no.”

“what?”

Sima Xuan shook his head.

“Of course, there could be a reason for that. But that’s not all. “He’s not the kind of guy who would do such a reckless thing just for that one reason.”

Yeon Ho-jeong’s expression became serious.

“So what do you think? “For what reason do you think he’s trying to retake the base?”

“Saeumgyo… It is to send a message there and at the same time…”

“At the same time?”

Sima Xuan touched his lips without realizing it.

“Flee… Damage… If your troops are disappearing and you are falling behind in intelligence operations…” “

…”

“It’s war.”

“what?”

Sima Xuan’s eyes lit up.

“He is preparing for war.”

“…are you going to go to war with us?”

“Not the war you think of, but a shadowy war that only assassins can wage.”

“…!”

“And if it’s as I expected… “He must have already infiltrated the wilderness.”

Yeon Ho-jeong’s face became grim.

“More details later. “Let’s move. Hurry up.”
