Dark and Light Martial Emperor - Chapter 570
Episode 570
The shadow was dark (2)
“Brother… huh?”
Kang Yang opened the door and scratched his head.
Yeon Ho-jeong was sitting cross-legged on the floor. When I saw a slight haze rising from the top of my head, it seemed like I was concentrating on flying.
“Why don’t you at least make a sign.”
Kang-ryang turned around.
At that time, Yeonhojeong’s mouth opened.
“wait a moment.”
“yes? “Oh, that’s right.”
After closing the door, Kang-ryang stood leaning against the wall with his arms crossed and looked at Yeon-ho-jeong.
Kang Ryang’s eyes deepened.
‘Did you notice?’
Not long ago, Yeon Ho-jeong said that her senses were different from before and that she could not read all senses from all directions like before.
At first glance, I thought there was something wrong with my body. But Yeon Ho-jeong said that was not the case.
Changes in martial arts.
It meant that Yeonhojeong’s martial arts, whether regression or development, was facing another change.
‘That’s right.’
A smile appeared on Kang Ryang’s face as he looked at Yeon Ho-jeong.
It was a complex smile filled with bitterness, envy, fighting spirit, and pride.
‘He’s a really toxic guy.’
Kang Ryang also tried not to escape from martial arts every moment of the day.
It wasn’t a matter of training. It was a matter of mindset and attitude towards life.
And yet, sometimes, he faced moments when his words and actions drifted away from nothingness. At times like that, I consciously returned to martial arts.
Whether eating, drinking, or lying down to rest, I tried to let my body naturally blend into martial arts.
If it happens naturally and unconsciously, from then on every day will be different. Kangryang was so sure.
The reason for confidence was clear.
This was because the person in front of him was consistently maintaining the state that Kang Yang wanted.
‘It’s probably not simply because of the integration of life and martial arts. That alone can’t explain my brother’s change.’
Kang Ryang’s eyes deepened.
‘What kind of world does my brother see? What kind of mindset is your brother living in this world? What efforts are you making to constantly improve?’
I do not know. I couldn’t figure it out.
Yeon Ho-jeong trained like everyone else and lived like everyone else. Sometimes it seemed like I lived more leisurely than others.
But the change was more evident than anyone else. We made progress at every moment, and even when we faced moments of regression, we bounced back and used it as a stepping stone for further growth.
‘perhaps.’
Kangryang swallowed his saliva without realizing it.
‘We may have already reached a point where physical training is meaningless.’
They say that the more expert you are, the more important it is to have a flash of enlightenment rather than tedious physical training.
Wrong.
Enlightenment itself is important, but it requires constant training to achieve that enlightenment.
The body is the vessel and enlightenment is the content. Even if you attain enlightenment through heavenly luck, it is in vain if your body to accept that enlightenment is not properly trained.
That is why harmony between mind and body is important. Because enlightenment does not come without effort.
In other words, Kang Ryang thought that Yeon Ho-jeong’s body was now in a state where it could accept any kind of enlightenment.
‘That may be why my senses have changed from before. ‘It is a problem that can be interpreted as my brother’s senses becoming blurred as the harmony between mind and body was broken, as he was able to read the flow around him even while he was extremely focused on one thing.’
What if it’s true?
‘My brother is now regaining similar senses as before…’
Kang Ryang’s arms with his arms crossed gave strength.
‘Does this mean that you are gradually gaining pieces of enlightenment without even realizing it?’
At that time, Yeon Ho-jeong’s eyes brightened.
“Whoa.”
Kang-ryang uncrossed his arms.
“How are you feeling?”
“It’s almost normal.”
The effectiveness of the artist group given by the museum was truly amazing.
It guaranteed faster and more stable treatment than any other internal injury medicine I had ever taken. As the doctor says, the deeper the internal injury, the less effective it is, but if you take Hwabaekdan when the internal injury is controlled to some extent, the speed of healing is frighteningly fast.
“amazing.”
Yeon Ho-jeong got up from her lotus position and stuck out her tongue.
“I have never seen an internal wound medicine with this much efficacy. “It’s not called Sacheondanga for nothing.”
Kang-ryang chuckled.
“Aren’t they people who fiddle with herbs and poisonous plants on a random day? “I don’t know about elixirs, but when it comes to healing potions, no sect will be able to match you.”
“I guess so.”
Yeon Ho-jeong twirled his shoulders.
It was not an empty statement to say that I had almost recovered. Just by looking at the movement of his shoulders, you could see that he was no different from usual.
“What about Song Ha-shini and the light?”
“It’s in the room on the third floor.”
“How is your condition?”
Kang Ryang whetted his appetite.
“It’s not good.”
He said he even caught the Amipa Myeongjin incident.
Hearing those words, Song Ha-sini looked as if she had almost lost her composure. In fact, I was probably more than shocked.
Yeon Ho-jeong nodded.
“Was it until today? “Did the head of the Tang family borrow this guest cup?”
“That’s right.”
“Then tell everyone to gather on this floor.”
After Lee Gak.
Everyone in the group gathered at the table in the center of this floor.
The atmosphere was quite heavy. This is because Yeon Ho-jeong’s expression was serious when she told him to gather.
“We need to talk about work soon.”
The eyes of Hwang Seok-tae and Kang Ryang, who lost the party, flashed all at once.
Song Ha-sini, who was sitting next to him, also straightened her back as if she was trying to exert as much strength as possible. His face looked very disfigured, as if he had been in extreme mental pain over the past few days.
Yeon Ho-jeong said.
“There is a place called Nakwonso in Sacheon. And the people who created that paradise cow belong to the Sacheon Samgang.”
Tang Guan’s eyes deepened, and Song Xini’s complexion became somewhat pale.
Yeon Ho-jeong sighed.
“Honestly, I don’t know where to start. “From what I heard, it seems to be spreading throughout Sichuan. Even if we uproot it, I don’t know how long it will take to get rid of the remnants.”
“for a moment.”
Kang-ryang raised his hand.
“I heard that it was a paradise place, and I even had a bloody fight with the people there.”
“hmm.”
“I still don’t know what paradise is like. “I think we need to know that first.”
Kang Liang looked at the party hall.
“It seems like the head of the family doesn’t know either.”
The official looked at Yeon Ho-jeong without answering.
Yeon Ho-jeong nodded.
“Thank you.”
“Yes yes?”
“Please explain. “Honestly, without any additions or omissions.”
Song Ha-ni swallowed his saliva.
“Oh, I understand.”
She devoted her life to mountain asceticism. Even thinking about what was happening inside the paradise gave me goosebumps.
And I got angry. As a practitioner, I had to control my emotions, but it wasn’t easy.
“Paradise cow….”
Song Ha-sini began her explanation.
She was different from Yeon Ho-jeong. The ability to get straight to the point was lacking, some parts were unnecessarily long, and a lot of the content was somewhat emotionally biased.
But everyone who heard her was shocked.
“That…”
A look of disbelief appeared on Kang Ryang’s face.
“Is that true?”
“…That’s right.”
“Ah, anyway, they are monks? Aren’t Cheongseong and Ami sacred places that are looked upon with envy by Taoist practitioners? “How can practitioners from a place like that form such a ruthless organization…?!”
Yeon Ho-jeong opened his mouth.
“For a person to become a demon is not a matter of age, gender, or status.”
“but!”
“On the contrary, such people can emerge from a group of practitioners who adhere to a clean, sometimes oppressed, and sometimes frustrating life.”
Kang Ryang was dumbfounded.
It wasn’t just Kangryang. There was a hint of life in the corners of Paeyul’s eyes.
However, his voice was not as exalted as Kang Ryang’s.
It was calm and simple.
“At least ten years ago.”
“That’s right.”
“It takes a long time to raise such experts. “They say it’s been at least ten years, but it’s highly likely that it’s been longer than that.”
“I think so too.”
“the problem is.”
Paeyul frowned.
“The question is, how on earth did you establish such an organization?”
A look of puzzlement appeared on Song Ha-shinni’s face.
“What do you mean by that?”
“Shinni. “An organization or group cannot be created by simply gathering people together.”
“yes?”
“I mean, I need money.”
“…?!”
“They have so much money that they can build paradises all over Sichuan. “If such terrible things are being committed in Paradise as Song Ha-sini said, it would cost unimaginable labor costs just to hire that much manpower.”
“ah!”
She, who only focused on training at the mountain temple, was particularly weak in this area.
Amifa also followed Buddhism, but of course she was also making money. This was because it was difficult to run a sect properly without making money.
“Besides, they have been teaching each faction’s martial arts to others for over ten years. “Unless all the people I taught were geniuses, I would have needed all kinds of elixirs and training locations to raise that many troops.”
“I see.”
“They even raised assassins there. I said I didn’t specialize in assassinations, but if so, it’s even greater. Intelligence and information control are impossible without relevant knowledge, and training personnel in that field is a much more difficult task than training a master.”
Yeon Ho-jeong nodded.
“you’re right.”
“Where on earth did they get that much money? Even if they say they stole the sect’s public funds, it’s ridiculous considering their organizational strength. There is no way that each faction would not know that such a large amount of money was siphoned off.”
“That is also correct. “I just want to make one correction.”
Everyone looked at Yeon Ho-jeong.
Yeon Ho-jeong placed his ax on the table.
“I’m a pretty famous person.”
Kang Ryang whetted his appetite.
“You’re not bragging… are you?”
“You’re noisy, man.”
Yeon Ho-jeong scratched his head.
“Of course, the stories about me were somewhat exaggerated. However, the most unique thing among the rumors is that they use cavalry called the Gwangryongbu, and the ax is bigger and heavier than a person. “Anyone who sees this will say it’s this guy.”
“That’s right.”
“But they didn’t know.”
“…huh?”
“They didn’t seem to know anything about me. Because I didn’t lift the Gwangryongbu? “Even if you are not part of the Gwangryongbu, there are not many experts at this age who can hold an ax and install it.”
“It’s not that there aren’t many, it’s just my brother. “If you think about the level of martial arts.”
“okay. And yet they seemed not to know me.”
Yeon Ho-jeong’s eyes lit up.
“The main players can do that. Because you’re so caught up in lust and martial arts training that you don’t even know what’s going on. “I don’t think everyone will, but I think the majority will.”
When people are deeply immersed in a field, they stop looking around.
Even if I heard it, I forget it, and even if I saw it, I don’t remember it. It does not discriminate between experts or ordinary people.
“But isn’t it a bit strange that those who were raised for intelligence and information control don’t know me?”
“…I see?”
“It’s strange. At first, I thought he was just pretending not to know, but that wasn’t the case. “They really didn’t know anything about me.”
“Then…”
“So I think that’s fortunate.”
“yes?”
“Thank goodness. “It means that their information power is limited to Sacheon.”
“…!!”
The eyes of the audience sparkled.
Yeon Ho-jeong said.
“I think it makes even less sense if they know the details of our situation. “If it really was like that…”
The official frowned.
“Opening.”
“Exactly. “It must be said that we joined hands with them until the opening.”
“….”
“That’s why I’m glad. Because we can assume that openness is not part of the same thing as these guys. “I don’t know about the twigs.”
Hwang Seok-tae said as if throwing something out.
“The board is getting huge.”
“It didn’t get bigger. First of all, openness is missing. So that explains it. “The reason they didn’t recognize me.”
“hmm.”
“They are afraid of opening up. So only information within Sacheon was strictly controlled. “I don’t have the energy, space, or time to accumulate more information than that.”
“then…?”
“Their world is limited to Sacheon. It’s no longer the world outside. To them, Sacheon means the whole world. That’s why…”
Yeon Ho-jeong stroked his chin.
“The strategy becomes easier.”
