Dark and Light Martial Emperor - Chapter 631
Episode 631
Summary (1)
“Cough!”
I don’t know how many times I cough today.
Hwa Jin-cheon looked at his own face in longing.
Pale complexion. His hair and beard also seemed to be whiter than before.
Since I’m almost semi-retired, I don’t walk around as dirty as I used to. Is that why? The pale complexion seemed to stand out more.
He grumbled softly.
“You look like a damn bastard. Even so, isn’t it too much for an old man who only has a short time left to live?”
A middle-aged man standing next to him with his back straight spoke in a stern tone.
“Please give me an order now. “I will immediately catch that guy who disrespected the Lord.”
“Don’t be stupid. If not him, who else can lift the clouds of war in Sichuan? Besides, that guy’s group is all following what he says. “The core of this operation is Tang Gaju, but the success or failure of this operation depends on Yeon Ho-jeong.”
“But…”
“I feel like I want to squeeze in a few chestnuts, but I’m old and that’s not easy.”
“Please leave it to me. “I will take care of it properly once the work is completed.”
Hwa Jin-cheon chuckled.
“Do you have the skills to do that?”
“I am the chairman of Yongho Pungwoon.”
“You said I didn’t know that?”
“….”
“It’s good to be proud of your own skills, but don’t be arrogant. No matter how good your skills are, your life will be in danger if you deal with that devil.”
The middle-aged man’s eyes deepened.
The most elite guard unit that guarded the Yongdu Ark was the Yongho Pungwoon Guard. And he was the head of that unit.
Of course, his military power is also top notch. It can’t be helped because the strong people of Seongcheon are anti-good beings, but they are not inferior to the Jangmun level of the Nine Gates Sect.
If you also implement the guard’s unique sneak attack, it will be difficult to find an expert who can avoid his poison.
Hwa Jin-cheon said while looking out the window.
“I knew it from a long time ago. I’m not a guy who just believes in his strength and goes forward. It was like that then, but now it’s completely turned into a monster. “It’s not just the martial arts that are strong, but the person itself is strong.”
“….”
“Well, if what Malco said is true, wouldn’t it be natural….”
What does this mean?
Although he was curious, the middle-aged man didn’t bother to ask.
Hwa Jin-cheon said cheerfully.
“Whatever it is, there is definitely a problem with planting a cancer person without the head of the family knowing. An old man who is just waiting for the day to grow old and die shares his fate with Tang family… Isn’t it rather wonderful? “The three letters in the name Hwajincheon still have that much value.”
“The Dragon Head Ark is the best in the world.”
“The monsters of Seongcheon will be sad to hear this.”
“Just because you are strong in martial arts doesn’t mean you are the best in the world. “Considering the influence he has on the world, there is probably no godman in the world who can compare to Lord Ark.”
“Have you learned how to flatter yourself these days?”
“I’m serious.”
Hwa Jin-cheon burst into laughter.
“I hope that damn disciple learns your sincerity.”
It was then.
‘hmm?’
Hwa Jin-cheon’s eyes sparkled.
Someone was walking in the narrow alley outside the window.
It was Yeonhojeong. He changed into neat clothes and even put his hair up, and his appearance was different from before.
the problem is.
‘when?’
Even though he was poisoned by Dangga’s poison, Gam did not die.
But I didn’t even notice that he had entered the alley. Even taking into account that he had taught a large amount of skill to an idiot student, this was surprising.
‘…’
Hwa Jin-cheon’s face became serious.
“Yongak.”
“Yes, Ark.”
“A guest is coming. “Ask your subordinates to come and watch the drinking table.”
Are you a guest?
Yonggak turned his head out the window, following Hwajincheon.
‘…?’
There was no one. It was invisible to the eye and there was no sign of popularity.
“Ark. Who…”
At that time, Hwajincheon looked behind Yonggak.
“Are you here?”
“yes.”
Yonggak was startled by the voice coming from behind him.
When I looked back, Yeonhojeong was there before I knew it.
‘…!!’
Yonggak felt a chill running down his back.
The guards are also good at hiding. Being good at hiding meant that their senses were much more sensitive than those of ordinary martial arts people.
Still, I didn’t feel it. The presence of Yeon Ho-jeong approaching from behind his back.
What if Yeon Ho-jeong had a desire to live?
Uduk.
Yonggak’s fist naturally gained strength.
Yeon Ho-jeong smiled.
“Drawing facial expressions is an art. “They look like they’re going to rush in right now.”
Hwa Jin-cheon said in a strong tone.
“Yongak!”
“…Yes, Ark.”
Slurp.
The dragon disappeared from the spot like smoke.
Even a transcendental expert would not know where or how the Dragon Gak disappears.
But Yeon Ho-jeong seemed to see it. The line of sight along the left pillar and up to the ceiling was in the same direction as the dragon pavilion was moving.
Yeon Ho-jeong chuckled.
“Aren’t you frustrated? “If you’re hiding somewhere like that.”
Hwa Jin-cheon pointed to the chair across from him with a calm expression.
“If you’re here, please sit down.”
“Let’s do that.”
Yeon Ho-jeong calmly went to the chair and sat down.
Hwa Jin-cheon’s eyes lit up.
‘It has changed.’
completely.
‘pray? a look? It’s not that kind of change. The martial arts itself…’
At that moment, Hwa Jin-cheon’s eyes wavered.
Yeon Ho-jeong tilted his head slightly.
“What are you looking at so intently?”
“…No.”
He expertly adjusted his expression and spoke lightly.
“Looking at your relaxed face, you probably know the results without even hearing them, but you still have to check it yourself. “How did things go?”
“I caught them all.”
“also.”
Hwa Jin-cheon breathed a sigh of relief.
“Thank you for your hard work.”
Even though he didn’t say it, he seemed to be worried too. I could feel the sincerity in the relieved expression.
“The Tang family did a lot of hard work. “It wouldn’t be normal to fight with one’s own flesh and blood.”
“Hehe, I thought he was a cold-blooded, iron-hearted man, but he’s quite meticulous, isn’t he?”
“It’s not like I don’t have a family.”
It’s family.
Hwa Jin-cheon smiled.
“It seems like the presence of family gives you strength.”
“I guess that’s true for everyone. “Isn’t the Ark also reassuring thanks to Hugae, no matter what happens?”
“Don’t even talk. I’m really worried because he just likes to play. Instead of being reassuring, I sometimes feel like the back of my neck hurts when I play with snow.”
“But it’s better than nothing.”
“You can’t do without it. “I gave it all my strength, but it was a waste.”
I felt it before, but this priest was definitely cheerful.
Even while swearing, I feel deep affection. Yeon Ho-jeong was able to feel the emotions in Hwa Jin-cheon’s voice more thoroughly and in detail than before.
‘I can see it.’
Even if I didn’t reach this level, I could see what I needed to see.
However, it was just a hunch that was close to certainty based on experience and was not really certain. If that were the case, there was no reason to poison Hwajincheon.
‘He’s extremely good at controlling his emotions. Even though facial expressions and emotions match, when necessary, they are delicately controlled to disturb the other person’s perspective.’
This may be something I learned naturally while living in Yongdu Ark. Dealing with information means dealing with people. Yongdu Ark is probably a person who is better at protecting the information he has obtained than at digging up information from the other party.
‘I wonder if Hugae will change like that too.’
Full Sang during the time of Emperor Heukam was different from Hwajincheon. Although he had the same ability as Hwa Jin-cheon, he was much more honest and expressed his emotions more abundantly.
Maintaining a cheerful mood even during a war is impossible with ordinary mental strength. This was the reason why Yeon Ho-jeong highly evaluated Full Sang.
“First, let’s listen to the details.”
Yeon Ho-jeong spoke calmly about what happened so far.
Hwa Jin-cheon’s eyes lit up.
“Are you saying that the King of Darkness has revealed himself?”
“exactly.”
“her! “You convinced me?”
“I tried to convince him, but I don’t think it was because of me. It looks like Noh Seon-bae also had a lot of concerns. “I think he made up his mind when he sensed the ghost gate there.”
“Hmm.”
Even if you hear the word ‘gwimun’, you don’t question it or be surprised. It meant that they already knew of its existence.
“If the King of Darkness had appeared, that would have been the end of the situation.”
“That’s not necessarily true. “It wasn’t even a situation worth doing.”
“hmm?”
“Because it was done by a child. “It must be difficult to remain calm.”
Hwa Jin-cheon, who was quietly looking at Yeon Ho-jeong, suddenly said.
“What would it be like for you?”
“What do you mean?”
“Since we are not married, let me talk about your younger brother. “If your brother had done something similar, would you have hesitated?”
Yeon Ho-jeong frowned.
“How can you know unless you face such a situation? However, due to my nature, I will not hesitate.”
Hwa Jin-cheon grinned.
“I heard you think terribly of your family.”
“As terrible as my family is, isn’t other people’s families just as precious?”
“….”
“I would have killed him, shedding blood and tears. maybe.”
I’m serious.
Hwa Jin-cheon shook his head.
“I don’t think I have the mental strength to develop at that age.”
“We just have different values in life. So, let’s leave this story that makes me feel uncomfortable just hearing it.”
“Huh, okay then. “I was rude.”
“Good to know.”
“Is the King of Cancer okay?”
“You will need to recuperate for a while.”
Hwa Jin-cheon sighed.
Anyway, that means he didn’t die. That was enough.
“Did you say it was Gwanghyeokgyo?”
“exactly.”
“It’s bloodshot… my head hurts.”
Frowning, he continued.
“Numerous cult groups appeared in the history of the martial arts, and the Jungwon martial arts fought many times against them to protect this land. “I heard that among them, there was a group that had trained truly terrible magic techniques, and there were also many who brought hexes that destroyed common sense.”
“….”
“But there was only one cult in history that used the tactic of divorce.”
“Blood religion?”
“That’s right.”
Yeon Ho-jeong’s eyes lit up.
“If you have any information about the blood religion, please select it and hand it to me.”
“hmm? “Don’t you know much about blood religion?”
“Not much. Even if I knew, wouldn’t the information I gained from the open world be more than the information collected in my head?”
“….”
This time, Hwa Jin-cheon stared at Yeon Ho-jeong.
Soon he nodded.
“I will select them and send them to you.”
“Thank you.”
“Are you planning on staying at the party for a while?”
“I’d like to help you clean up after yourself. “I still have business to do with the matriarch.”
“What happened to the remnants of Paradise? “The ones that Elder Paeyul said he captured.”
“I poisoned you.”
“Huh?!”
This was again unexpected. Addiction? All of them?
“According to what senior Paeyul said, it seems like he was planning to overthrow Cheongseong and Ami and join the three schools. “I wanted to catch them right away, but I poisoned them all just in case.”
“how?”
“The head of the family and you, that proud woman, put in some effort.”
“…Okay.”
“It’s still confusing, but we’re sorting it out, so we’ll get them all out soon.”
Hwa Jin-cheon hardened his eyes.
“It was dangerous. Wouldn’t it have been better to catch him instead? “What would they do if they were addicted?”
“They won’t even know they are addicted.”
“hmm.”
“If you really feel like it, you can use your hands in the open area. “Don’t just order too much for us.”
“It leaves me speechless.”
Yeon Ho-jeong stood up, took out a small gold bag and placed it on the table.
“It’s an antidote. “Thank you for your hard work.”
Hwa Jin-cheon grumbled.
“Is that all for an old man who suffered a lot?”
“I hope you will pat down the people of Dangga who have worked hard.”
“…It leaves me speechless until the end.”
“Go. Let’s meet again when the party calms down. “Then come and apologize to the head of the family in person.”
With those words, Yeon Ho-jeong disappeared.
As Hwa Jin-cheon was appetizing, a beggar brought him a table of alcohol.
“The drinking table is ready. By the way, send a message to Cheonryongdang (天龍堂) right now.”
“Are you at Cheonryongdang?”
“okay.”
Hwa Jin-cheon’s eyes wavered.
“I think we need to open one more seat in Seongcheon.”
