Dark and Light Martial Emperor - Chapter 55

Episode 55

To where the wind goes (5)

“Matriarch. “A letter has arrived from the Archduke.”

“Give it to me.”

Yeonwi’s eyes lit up as he opened the letter.

‘That’s fast.’

We have already reached Hanam. Even if it was done on horseback, the speed was incredible. We probably exchanged words several times.

‘They’re trying to make Moyong’s family urgent.’

Yeonwi was able to immediately understand what Yeonhojeong intended.

I am once again surprised by my son’s behavioral skills. She herself has gained countless experiences as the head of the family, but her son has never experienced anything like that.

Confounds the opponent with quick movements. The embarrassed opponent will reveal an unexpected loophole, and the moment that gap is exploited, the enemy will be disarmed.

It was Noh Kang-ho’s way of rolling the ball. It was difficult for even the Yeonwi to immediately think of such a way to respond.

Moreover, when capturing Sejak this time, he directly dug into the enemy’s camp and tricked the opponent into revealing the truth.

It was a bold approach. It was a wise driving force. It was a method that did not take risks to defeat the enemy.

As a father, I was worried, but as a military officer, I couldn’t help but admire this response.

‘Anyway, since Hojeong has moved like this, the Moyong family will probably try to contact him somehow. But since there is a distance, there is a high chance of getting help from reliable allies.’

Yeonwi’s eyes deepened.

He recalled his conversation with Yeon Ho-jeong before leaving.

‘It’s definitely a prestigious family.’

‘Is there any reason to think so? In fact, there were many forces that could join hands with the Moyong family. There is no need to train with the family called the best in the world.’

‘Still, it’s a prestigious family. It has to be a famous family.’

‘So you’re asking why you think that way.’

‘…It’s difficult to give a definite answer. However, it will be revealed during this trip to Hanam. ‘Where did they join hands with the Mo Yong family?’

I still had doubts. Why do you think the Mo Yong family joined hands with the famous family?

The Yeonwi also did not think that the Mo Yong family did this alone. The risk factor was too great for that.

However, the organization that joins hands does not necessarily have to be a famous company.

‘….’

However, there may be a reason why the son said that. As he went through a series of events, he trusted Yeon Ho-jeong’s excellent insight and judgment.

Yeonwi, who was lost in thought for a moment, called Baekhyun Lee.

“Contact the Cheolgongae branch manager. “Please contact me and ask me to check if there are any sects or organizations related to the famous family in nearby Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces.”

“All right.”

Yeonwi is lost in thought with her clasped hands.

There was a vivid anticipation in his eyes.

“…What if it’s really related to a famous family?”

At that time, I will vote for the head of the family prosecutor without hesitation.

The place where the young man guided Yeonhojeong was in a forest with few people.

It leads you into the forest at sunset. Even if I knew where the other person came from, I couldn’t help but feel uncomfortable.

However, Yeon Ho-jeong’s expression was indifference itself.

There was not even a hint of fear or anxiety or doubt. However, he didn’t seem nervous or excited.

It was just calm and calm. At least that’s what it seemed like on the outside.

The young man, Myeongdo, frowned.

‘Isn’t this guy even nervous?’

He said he would meet him at Guju Myeongga, the best place in the world. Even if you were the grand duke of Byeoksan Yeonga, it was normal to be nervous.

But this guy didn’t see anything like that.

“What is that?”

“what?”

“The axe.”

“It’s my weapon.”

Myeongdo said in exasperation.

“You’re using that big ax as a weapon? “Not a sword?”

“okay.”

Byeoksan Yeonga’s main weapon was the sword.

His swordsmanship was so excellent that people could say this.

“It is neither softer than a shaman’s sword nor more sophisticated than a Huashan sword. It is not as solemn as the sword of Nangong (南宮), nor is it as fierce as the sword of Mo Yong (慕容). Still, Yeonga’s sword is strong. “That honesty is orthodoxy among orthodoxy, so in a sense, it can be seen as the most suitable for martial arts.”

Even though it has only been 50 years since Yeonga was considered one of the Seven Great Families, the reason he has gained such great fame is not simply because of his righteousness.

Because it is strong. Their swordsmanship was worthy of representing the central region.

Even with such amazing swordsmanship, its power among the Seven Families was the smallest. A gentleman does not reveal himself, which is why the martial people praise him.

“Even though you’re an archduke, you still use an ax as a weapon?”

“What does that mean?”

Myeongdo frowned even more.

“I was going to say something earlier, but should you change your tone?”

“Do you think their tone is full of politeness?”

“….”

Well, since I had told him not to take his time at first meeting, I had nothing to say either.

However, Myeongdo honestly expressed his displeasure.

Myeongga is the best in the world. Although it is considered one of the Seven Great Families, its level is different from the other Six Great Families.

In martial arts, strength is power and fame is status.

In other words, the Guju Myeongga is no different from the highest-class nobles in the martial arts world. As for Shaolin, it is not a family whose power can be surpassed by a small love family.

‘Is this because it’s time to put some weight on your shoulders?’

He internally laughed at Yeon Ho-jeong.

I heard that you performed very impressively during the late index meeting.

I thought it was quite possible for my neck to become stiff. Didn’t the man who was called a fortune teller and ridiculed by the world even get a worthy nickname, Gwangpungsa?

‘Have a lot of fun.’

There are one or two masters who stand out and then disappear without a word. I thought the brightness would be no different from Yeonhojeong.

As I walked past this angle, I saw the light of a bonfire.

Myeongdo pointed his chin toward the bonfire.

“Go and see. “There is someone who wants to see you.”

“Sure.”

“Put that down.”

Myeongdo pointed to the axe.

Yeon Ho-jeong laughed and headed towards the bonfire without replying.

Myeongdo’s eyes grew cold.

“There is a limit to accepting arrogance. “Put it down right now.”

Yeon Ho-jeong still walked in silence.

Death appeared in Myeongdo’s eyes.

“dare…!”

It was then.

“Leave it alone.”

A sonorous voice comes from somewhere.

Myeongdo, who was about to use his hand, flinched. The order came from someone who could not disobey.

In the end, he had to glare at Yeon Ho-jeong’s back with murderous eyes.

Yeon Ho-jeong did not care about the brightness. In the first place, I had no interest in miscellaneous fish.

He recalled the voice he had just heard.

‘It’s significant.’

The inner energy in the voice contained uncommon depth. It is safe to say that this is the skill of a peak expert.

‘I dragged it quite a bit.’

Moreover, there was more than one sense of popularity. It wasn’t exact because they were all huddled together, but it seemed like there were twenty at best.

His intuition was accurate.

“It’s a huge axe, isn’t it? “It must weigh a lot, but you manage to carry it around.”

As I went near the bonfire, I saw a woman sitting with about twenty warriors standing there.

The owner of the voice was a woman. She was a woman with delicate facial features who appeared to be around the same age as Myeong-do.

Yeon Ho-jeong tilted his head.

“So who is it?”

“oh? Fresh reaction. “You said you have a rough personality, but is that still true?”

The woman said with a smile.

“My name is Myeong-on-ji (明溫池). “You’ve never heard of it, right?”

“does not exist.”

“Ho Ho! Embarrassing people. “Don’t people usually say they’ve heard of it?”

thud!

Yeon Ho-jeong, who put down the ax and leaned against the tree with his hand on it, said with an indifferent face.

“If you called someone, tell them why you called.”

Myeong Onji’s eyes twinkled like a morning star.

‘You don’t have a normal personality.’

Whether you are rough or timid, indifferent to others, or wary.

There is no problem with people of any personality. The real problem arises when you don’t know the other person’s personality.

Looking at it that way, this young man named Yeon Ho-jeong was not ordinary. Although his tone is rough, it is hard to read what kind of personality he has.

“Anyway, where did Hugae, who came with me, go? “I heard they disappeared when they released the kids and checked around.”

This means that the bases were run in that short period of time.

Yeon Ho-jeong tilted his head.

“I don’t even know because he’s a self-indulgent guy. So what’s your business?”

“Oh, I see.”

Myeong Onji said with a bright smile.

“It’s okay to be alone? “I guess you knew we were coming?”

“Because there are so many annoying people in life. “I came because I thought they might be those kind of fly bastards this time too.”

“If it flies, should I clean it up?”

“Is it a fly?”

It was a provocative tone.

Myeong Onji’s face was calm, but the eyes of the warriors standing behind him changed.

Living does not spill. However, as soon as the order was given, it was ready to kill.

Even though I know that the other person is the eldest son of Byeoksan Yeonga.

“You have a lot of guts, don’t you? “Didn’t you hear from Mingdo that we came from a famous family?”

“What does it matter whether I’m from a famous family or anything else when I become a fool worse than a bug?”

“Huh.”

At this level, it is difficult for Myeong Onji to patiently listen.

“I can’t use it if it keeps coming out crooked like that. “What if I get hurt without even mentioning the business?”

“So, speak quickly. “I feel like I’ve said it several times before, but maybe I don’t understand?”

Myeong Onji’s eyes grew cold.

No matter how much he is the head of the Dark Death Corps, a famous family’s spy organization, it is difficult to maintain composure.

Contrary to what she looked like, she was already over thirty. However, he was not old enough to be the leader of a spy corps.

That’s why it’s even more amazing. To become the head of an intelligence organization at that age, one must have outstanding ability and talent.

Maintaining composure was also a wonderful ability of hers. But this spoiled bastard is shaking it.

“Fun. “You’re an interesting friend.”

Myeong Onji smiled and continued speaking.

“You don’t like wasting time with useless chatter, right? Okay, let’s get straight to the point.”

“….”

“How is Yeonga these days? Are you living peacefully without any problems?”

Yeon Ho-jeong smiled coolly.

While getting to the main point, he asks about love holidays. I heard everything from Mo Yong-sega.

This is the way people who work in so-called intelligence organizations or deal with information speak like this. Even though he says he’s getting to the point, he secretly criticizes the other person.

The purpose was not to check the content, but to check the other person’s reaction.

Myeong On-ji’s facial expression, tone, and speaking style were based on the speaking skills of a thoroughly trained, to put it worse, typical spy organization member.

“There was chaos.”

“What? “What’s going on?”

“Because some foolish family planted a few secrets. “My back is sore from pulling all that out and organizing it.”

Myeong Onji’s expression hardened.

I tried to ask him subtly, but he told me everything out loud. I was even more surprised because I didn’t think he had the personality to tell me something like this.

“You gave us that…?”

“and.”

Sssssssuk.

Yeon Ho-jeong touched the blade of the ax and continued speaking.

“I guess there were some wildcats trying to swallow up the main family along with that stupid family, right?”

“…?!”

Is it because it catches the light of the bonfire?

Myeong Onji’s eyes seemed to sparkle especially.

“When you think about it, it’s strange, isn’t it? The people in the most urgent need right now are Moyongse, but you came to me before they did, right? “Moyongsega is not so incompetent that it loses its players.”

“That’s…”

“I got the sign saying it was the best in the world. It was really lame. right?”

Ugh.

Death creeped up from the axe.

“I guess it won’t be difficult to split it since I picked it up easily. What do you think?”
