Dark and Light Martial Emperor - Chapter 526

Episode 526.

The divine eye of a hundred soldiers (1)

“This is a report.”

“hmm?”

“A report has arrived from the Guizhou Province Iron Team. “I think it would be a good idea to read it for yourself.”

Yang Cheon chuckled after reading the information document Baek Seo handed over.

“You did it brilliantly again.”

It was a report that they had captured the prosperity of the first general of the Shinhwa Church and started trading.

The official seal of the iron guild master and the royal seal of Yeonhojeong were also stamped on it. It meant that it was solid information.

White Paper sighed.

“Would it be okay?”

“It’ll be okay. “Because it was okay, he probably made that mess again.”

Actually, it’s not very good.

Due to this incident, the Shinhwa Church will become even more eager to appease or kill Seongcheon Thirteen Chairs. This is because Yeon Ho-jeong found out about their plan.

The good news is that Yeon Ho-jeong used spear skills. Of course, since the actual martial arts would not have gone anywhere, quite a few assassins would have lost their lives even from punching or kicking.

‘It’s surprisingly difficult to read the traces, depending on what the main weapon is.’

Moreover, the entire area was completely burned down by the Mythological Church’s fire.

Among Yeonhojeong’s many martial arts skills, the most flashy and notable were those based on firearms. However, since the opponent’s martial arts was based on firearms, the probability of not knowing that Yeon Ho-jeong was involved increased.

‘If the information doesn’t reach you.’

Yeon Ho-jeong is a smart guy. When asked to pass on information, it would have been thoroughly checked to ensure that the information did not leak out.

‘It would have been handled well. But…’

There is no way to know for sure what happened on the scene.

The report was well written. It was clearly written what was done, what the current situation was, and what to do in the future.

However, just like a fight, operations are full of all kinds of variables.

We had to move while thinking that the enemy was aware of Yeonhojeong’s intervention. Only then can the damage on this side be minimized.

“By the way, it was still moving.”

Yang Chen stroked his beard and frowned.

“I expected it to move, but I didn’t expect it to hit so quickly. Moreover, even artillery is mobilized.”

Yang Cheon thought that the three schools would pay more attention to internal affairs for the time being.

If it was natural, it was natural. While Shinhwaism was busy taking control of the imperial palace and government, it lost several military commanders, and Saeumism lost a member called Eumsin, and the Lord of the Mukryongbu himself is still holding on.

What remains is the Gwanghyeolgyo, and through a conversation with Yeon Ho-jeong, I learned that there is a very high probability that Sejak of the Murim Alliance is from the Gwanghyeolgyo.

Yangcheon also did not know much about the Three Religions. However, the most unknown organization among them was Gwanghyeolgyo. Since I had never encountered a member of the Gwanghyeol Church, I had no idea what kind of people they were or where they might go.

However, even though the three schools each had their own roles to play, I did not think it was time to mess with the powerhouse of Seongcheon.

Conciliate or kill Seongcheon Thirteenth Place?

It’s a fight that needs to be viewed long and broadly, but this is too fast. If Seongcheon is touched, it can be interpreted to mean that preparations for war are at least half complete.

Of course, the three schools would not have been able to do that.

The Xinhua Church lost several of its vanguard leaders, and the Shaeum Church lost its reinforcements and the ruler of Guangdong Province, the expected retreat site.

If this is the case, even if a war is waged, the damage will be severe. There was no way those who wanted to mess with the imperial palace would start a war without being fully prepared.

‘Still, they are messing with Seongcheon. That means…’

Yang Chen’s eyes deepened.

‘Does this really mean to what extent are we prepared for war?’

I don’t necessarily think that’s the case. It’s a reasonable guess when viewed from a global perspective, but we still don’t really know anything about our enemies.

‘Whatever it is, it’s clear that they can’t run wild.’

Now that Sejak of the Murim Alliance has been elected, it has become extremely difficult for them to obtain information about the two alliances representing the central plains.

Yang Cheon, who was lost in thought for a moment, asked Baek Seo.

“First, what are you doing now?”

“Ah, you mean the Archduke?”

White Paper bowed his head.

“I haven’t left my residence for several days. However, it is said that some of the top officials of the department visited the Archduke’s residence.”

Yang Chen clicked his tongue.

“Moving according to the logic of power. That’s how the world is. “But my martial arts skills are not the best, so you’re already dabbling in politics?”

“Still, wouldn’t it be considered great enough to be an archduke?”

It wasn’t enough.

With that level of martial arts skills at that age, there is no shortage of things to call him an unrivaled genius. In particular, the Archduke did not rest on his genius talent, but jumped into countless battles and increased his martial arts level.

An effort that does not rest on talent, and even a wild nature that leads oneself into a real-life battle where failure could result in one’s life being lost.

He is worthy of being the next monarch of the Black Island.

“There are still some shortcomings. “I hope he realizes that.”

“Can I say something?”

“Sure.”

“If you’re a grand duchess… wouldn’t it be a bad choice to teach them directly like Princess Lee?”

“It’s a teaching…”

Yangcheon, who was deep in thought with his chin resting, asked as if he was just throwing it out.

“Do you know what me and Yeonhojeong have in common?”

“yes?”

“Me and Yeonhojeong. If you look at the big picture, the same goes for Moyong, who I saw back then. “The three of us have something in common.”

The white paper spoke carefully.

“Do you… have political skills…?”

“Wrong. “As you have seen, I am a person who has shown many ugly sides of myself.”

“That’s not true.”

“haha.”

White Paper thought for a moment.

‘What do Vice Lord, Deputy Yeon, and Moyong Gaju have in common?’

People had very different impressions.

Powerful martial arts? That’s right, but the Grand Duke can also be said to have achieved success if he is a martial artist.

Ambitious? In fact, the Archduke seemed to be just as good as anyone else. At least that was how it seemed on the outside.

White Paper honestly shook his head.

“I do not know.”

“You didn’t think of martial arts ambitions or anything like that, did you?”

The white paper made an embarrassed expression.

Yangcheon saw that and burst into laughter. Baek Seo, who was extremely cold to others, was honest to himself. He viewed the White Paper’s distinction favorably.

“The answer is simple. We know when to hit and run.”

“yes?”

“Of course I made the mistake of messing with Bottas. Well, it’s something that’s been going on for three years. I’m still getting greedy. However, even if a war really broke out, the Murim Alliance would not be foolish enough to break the alliance with just one boat.”

That’s natural.

It was a situation where a rare enemy was in front of me. If you claim that you destroyed other factions in order to eliminate the crisis in Jafar, no matter how much Shaolin you try, you cannot touch the Mukryong.

Even if we clearly understand their intentions, if this side puts forward such a justification, it is difficult to touch them. The world was like that.

“In other words, even if it seems a bit unreasonable, the line is not crossed. It’s a dangerous line that if I cross it, not only me but my children can all fall apart. “I don’t cross that line.”

“….”

“It’s the same as Yeonhojeong. Mr. Moyong? Actually, that guy didn’t see the other person properly. He’s a brilliant guy, but he’s lost the balance between ambition and ability. Still, he also knows how to distinguish between when to step forward and when to step back. “That’s why it’s so great and dangerous.”

“So you’re saying you’re not an archduke?”

“No.”

Yang Chen’s eyes sparkled.

“You can tell just by looking at the atmosphere. As the Lord of the Mukryong, I have a crush on Yeonhojeong. Moreover, my second son is learning martial arts directly with my approval.”

“….”

“Is it time to attack or retreat? “What do you think?”

White Paper bowed his head again.

“I am worried that Sosin’s foolish answer will taint your ears.”

It was a euphemistic avoidance of an answer.

Yang Chen chuckled.

“If the eldest had rushed in to overthrow the second and third, they would have entered succession classes in earnest.”

“…!”

“Let’s see. “Aren’t you engaging in useless politics with some of the top executives who are trying to stand in line when they should be attacking you?”

“I see.”

“A military’s capabilities cannot be proven through politics. “It is proven by force and ideology.”

Yang Cheon buried his body in Taesa Temple.

“Of course, the headquarters is also a group that cannot be free from politics. However, what is simpler and more certain than the Murim Alliance is that the principle of strong self-respect is firm.”

Mukryongbu is like a miniature world of Heukdo Murim itself.

In the end, the strongest warrior takes the lead. It was a principle that never changed even within the Mukryongbu, where all kinds of politics were rampant.

“I don’t know if I feel like it’s enough, or if I have some faith in it, but at least it’s not the time to sit back and picture a hopeful future.”

Yang Chen shook his head.

“Whether you have received a mission, are at the center of a situation involving simple grudges, or are in a situation full of competitors like now.”

“….”

“It is necessary to read the situation, look at the atmosphere, judge properly whether it is okay to run or not, and then act. First, it’s not enough. In fact, even more so than the second one.”

“So… Lieutenant Yeon is better than his successors?”

“Yeonhojeong?”

Yang Chen smiled bitterly.

“He is a political demon who knows better than anyone else when to hit and run.”

* * *

Slurp.

The masked man with the money on his back stopped walking.

“what?”

Beonjak looked at Yeonhojeong and asked.

“Aren’t you going to follow me?”

“okay.”

“…?!”

What does this mean all of a sudden?

Yeon Ho-jeong looked around.

“Just as I thought. “That’s it.”

“What do you mean?”

“A place where I directly intervened in the battle.”

Beonjak frowned.

He got off the masked man’s back. For the sake of physical strength, I risked hurting my pride and carried it on my back. But the atmosphere was unusual.

Yeon Ho-jeong scratched his head.

“I guess we just need to fix five places. I thought it would be quite a lot, but it’s thanks to you. “Thanks to that Yeoyanggong, many traces of my martial arts skills have disappeared.”

“What are you thinking?”

“I’m thinking of going back.”

“…what?!”

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

But his eyes were not smiling.

“Did you really think I believed you and followed you?”

“…?!”

“Less than half of the information… It’s a bit disappointing, but if you think of it as free information, this is enough.”

“You…!”

“You weren’t planning on giving me the rest of the information in the first place, right? “No, weren’t you planning on killing me?”

Beonjak’s face hardened.

Yeon Ho-jeong shrugged his shoulders.

“Let’s not act naive. “We don’t live in a world where we can be fooled by that.”

“….”

“Still, I’m glad I got something. But what about you?”

Yeon Ho-jeong, smiling meaningfully, turned around.

Life shined in Beonjak’s eyes.

“How dare you fool me?”

“Playing? “Is now the time to worry about that?”

“what?”

“I don’t let people live who break their promises.”

“…?!”

“It was fun. “You were born from fire, so return to fire.”

At that moment, Beonjak felt a strong beating in his heart.

Coo! Coooooo!

My heart was beating violently.

Beonjak’s eyes were bloodshot.

“You fucking bird…!”

Kwaaaaaaaaaa!

With a huge explosion, Beonjak’s body exploded. It was an explosion of tremendous power that swept away even the masked person next to him at once.

The red flames that caused the explosion soared high into the sky.

The flame that rose up resembled the sun god Suzaku.

Yeonhojeong whistled.

To him, both of them were already dead.
