Dark and Light Martial Emperor - Chapter 720
◈Episode 720.
Response (1)
Dark night.
About twenty men were lined up around a large carriage on a hill in northeastern Hanam.
Among them, a middle-aged man wearing light armor took a step forward.
“Are you members from the Murim Alliance?”
Peng Wugang took control.
“I call him Peng Mu-gang of the Peng family.”
The middle-aged man bowed his head modestly.
“I am the head of the Imperial Palace.”
From generation to generation, the empire has had two generals. There was one general government, but there were two heads, and it was customary for one of them to be a maternal relative.
The general, a maternal relative, commands the troops that guard the palace and prevent invasion by foreign enemies. Other generals run extremely aggressive units and have several special units under their command so that they can annihilate the enemy at any time.
Among them, Bukcheonjang Dobeon was a member of the General Military Department from his maternal relatives and was the head of the northern army in charge of foreign enemies invading the northern part of the central plains, especially the deserts and grasslands.
A bigger figure than expected appeared, but Peng Wugang and Yan Wei Zhuge Yan were not surprised.
They were on their way to meet the emperor’s maternal relatives. So, in a way, it was natural that the head of the northern army under the general came out to greet them.
“This carriage transports the special journeys that Her Majesty the Empress enjoys. “The members of the association will board this carriage and enter the palace.”
“I understand.”
“We will take several breaks, but when we reach Beijing, we will approach with some caution. “I heard that the owner of Hebei Paengga is familiar with many of the byways, so if an enemy attack is expected, I will ask for your help.”
“Don’t worry.”
“Then get in.”
At that time, Yeonwi opened her mouth.
“Before we leave, I have something to ask you.”
Doban looked at Yeonwi.
Yeonwi asked calmly.
“Is it widely spread within the palace that Her Majesty the Empress enjoys military service?”
“Of course. That is why we are transporting our members in this carriage.”
“I guess so.”
Yeonwi nodded and got into the carriage.
Then, Peng Wu-gang and Zhuge Yan-yeon also got on the carriage, and the Murim League attendants all bowed their heads and fell back.
Doban said.
“depart.”
Hee hee hee!
The carriage moved, followed by twenty horsemen.
The carriage was much more comfortable than I expected. Even when climbing the rough mountain path, there was little shaking.
Peng Mu-gang sent a warning message to Yeon-wi.
[Why did you ask that question earlier?]
Yan Wei looked at Zhuge Yan.
Zhuge Yan nodded.
Yan Wei sent a message to Peng Wugang.
[Bukcheonjang said that many people in the palace are aware of the fact that Her Majesty enjoys a noble reign.]
[That’s right.]
[No matter how sharp the power struggle is, you cannot hastily attack until the power is completely tilted to one side. If the attack really begins, it can be said that a war has broken out in itself.]
[I think so too.]
[Chief Bukcheon said. Please be kind to us in the unlikely event of an enemy attack.]
[…?!]
[If the Emperor’s side had entered a complete victory, Her Majesty the Empress would not have even been able to reach out to us. The reason His Majesty reached out to us was to win this tense tug-of-war, not simply to live.]
[Then…?]
[It’s a test.]
Yeonwi closed his eyes.
[Her Majesty is trying to test us.]
[But… is there really a need for that?]
[I can’t figure it out that far. However, since he even pointedly mentioned Beijing, it is highly likely that His Majesty’s test will begin from there.]
[Huh!]
[If you think about it differently, this is only natural. He would like to know how powerful the heads of the families representing the Murim Alliance are.] [
It makes sense.]
[If that is really the case.]
Yeonwi slowly opened her eyes again, and her eyes glowed blue.
“…Biwang.”

“It’s false information from my maternal relatives….”
A thin layer of ice appeared on Yang Chen’s face.
“It’s truly shocking. “If they really gave false information, I can’t find out anything other than an intention to test our abilities to get Governor Wooheon to test our abilities.”
“I guess so.”
“If the information is clearly false, it probably means that the Murim Alliance is paying attention to the imperial palace.”
“I guess so.”
“In that case, the appearance of the King of Rain can be interpreted in two ways.”
Yeon Ho-jeong’s eyes lit up.
“It can be seen as a way to divert attention or
as a warning to take care of yourself because a Seongcheon-level expert can attack you at any time and anywhere if the intention is discovered.”
Yeon Ho-jeong scratched his head.
“If King Bi is really related to Taegam Wooheon, then that is true. “Nothing has been revealed yet, so it’s just a hasty guess.”
“But you said you believed in the situation. “Given the circumstances you think of, the appearance of the King of Rain is by no means a coincidence.”
“That’s right.”
“I don’t know if it’s Wooheon’s Taegam or his maternal relative, but do you think King Bi is probably related to the imperial palace?”
“If you think about the entire imperial palace, not just one side, I think it’s probably related.”
“…Right.”
“If it has something to do with Her Majesty’s side, it’s even scarier.”
The corners of Yang Chen’s mouth rose.
“Don’t be hasty to betray. I am a person who even has a powerful hand called the King of Rain. “What is this?”
“Exactly.”
Yangcheon coolly emptied his glass.
“Both the empress and the grand dame seem like poisonous snakes.”
Although his words were extremely profane, Yeon Ho-jeong did not fault his tone.
Yeon Ho-jeong shook his head.
“It’s a struggle for survival. “If you can win, you have to do whatever it takes.”
“That’s true, though.”
“And if King Bi is from Her Majesty’s side, the situation gets a little more serious.”
“hmm?”
“Taegam Wooheon is a Shinhwa believer. There must be several masters working secretly in the imperial palace. Nevertheless, King Bi was sent to the central plain instead of the palace.”
“…her!”
Yang Cheon gave an absurd laugh.
“Are you saying you can’t even guess the strength of the Taegam side?”
“If King Bi is the Empress’s Majesty.”
“You guys are having a good time.”
Yang Cheon seemed frustrated and drank from the bottle.
Yeon Ho-jeong clicked his tongue.
“Eat in moderation. “Even if you are a cilantro, you must take care of your health.”
“That’s it. “I was so shocked that I couldn’t even get drunk.”
Yangcheon, who carelessly threw away the empty liquor bottle, carelessly adjusted his posture.
Yang Cheon’s eyes looked up at the sky and his eyes became strange.
“The king… the imperial palace… war…”
What is he thinking about?
Yangcheon, who had been looking at the sky for a while, straightened his posture.
“Are you going to be okay?”
“What do you mean?”
“The imperial palace is in a state of turmoil. “I’m sure you’d be worried since your father went there.”
“Of course I’m worried.”
Yeon Ho-jeong closed his eyes.
“My father probably always felt that way. “Every time I went somewhere, he would be so worried that he would swing his sword.”
Yang Chen chuckled.
“I thought what would happen if you went on a rampage to go to the imperial palace for no reason, but I wasted a lot of time.”
“That is my father’s battlefield. “I have to do what I can.”
“Of course you should.”
Yangcheon quietly looked at Yeonhojeong.
Yeon Ho-jeong tilted his head.
“Why are you doing that?”
Yang Cheon stood up.
“Is it okay since the vacant lot is spacious?”
“…?”
“It looks like your injuries have recovered well. “It’s not perfect, but I think it’s good enough to show off what I’m capable of.”
Yeon Ho-jeong’s eyes widened.
“Let’s have a game?”
“We won’t play two rounds, so don’t worry.”
“In this situation?”
“What is this situation?”
Yangcheon had already come down to the clearing in front of the rock and was rolling up his sleeves.
Yeon Ho-jeong came down from the rock with a chuckle.
“Do you take out the axe?”
“If you start cutting with an ax, do you have the confidence to finish it properly?”
“Isn’t the Vice Lord stronger than me?”
“If you ask me to kill you, there’s nothing I can’t kill you. But if you come in sincerely, I won’t be able to do it moderately anymore.”
Yeon Ho-jeong’s eyes wavered.
He reached the top of his lungs. That fact remains unchanged.
But when I heard Yang Cheon say that I couldn’t do it in moderation anymore, I suddenly got goosebumps.
I felt it at that moment. The fact that he, too, is staying near the top of the mountain.
I once again realized that I had reached a position where I could climb to the top of Mount Tai at any time.
‘That’s funny.’
I had already reached a higher level than this. It wasn’t necessarily a surprise now.
‘…perhaps.’
Yeon Ho-jeong also rolled up his sleeves.
‘Maybe I’ve finally truly let go of who I was during the Dark Emperor days.’
Yang Chen pounded his fists together.
thud! thud!
Even though the fists were made of bone and flesh, when they clashed with each other, a sound like drumming rang out.
Yeon Ho-jeong shook his head.
“How on earth was this weapon made to make such a sound?”
“I had an epiphany.”
“yes?”
Yang Chen slowly turned his shoulders. If you look at the movements, they were slow, as if they were doing Taoist gymnastics.
“Teaching someone is truly an act that involves deep patience and delicate self-reflection. To be honest, it was frustrating and frustrating. Even when I’m teaching, I’m like, ‘Why don’t you know that?’ “I’ve experienced this countless times.”
“It is difficult for a genius to be a good teacher.”
“I worked hard to fix it. Now, he’s the only disciple I have left. “If you don’t know something even if I teach you, I have no choice but to explain it as best as I can so that you can understand it.”
“You are a good teacher.”
Slurp.
Yang Cheon naturally lowered his posture.
Tension appeared on Yeon Ho-jeong’s face.
“Achieving enlightenment does not mean that the power of one penny increases to two pennies. In fact, it seems like it has become weaker. “If you were me now, you would understand what I mean.”
“yes. “Enlightenment in this state is unfathomable.”
“that’s right. “I want to find out through you what effect that realization has on me and what it has given me.”
Yang Chen smiled. It was the laughter of a rabid beast.
“I will also look into your strength.”
Yeon Ho-jeong, who was quietly looking at Yang Cheon, sighed.
“Please just know that it is not normal yet.”
“I’m not normal either. “Didn’t you see what I just did?”
“Do you have any plans to join us after you have improved your physical condition?”
“Is there a martial arts person fighting in peak physical condition? “Does the enemy think that an arm was lost?”
“Was our relationship that bloody?”
“So when do you want to start?”
It was then.
Perfect! Fuuuuuuu!
Yang Chen’s upper body shook slightly.
Yeon Ho-jeong smiled. Before he knew it, his left middle finger and thumb were touching and then falling apart.
“As expected, you are blocking it.”
Yang Chen raised his right hand to protect his face and his eyes deepened.
“Is it vibration?”
“That’s right.”
“You’re not a martial arts expert?”
“This is senior Yin Emperor’s martial arts. “They said it was the Armong faction.”
“…Did you study martial arts under Emperor Yin?”
“Is that possible? The senior’s disciple is in Jongnam. Just…”
Yeon Ho-jeong’s posture also lowered. It was a slightly lower posture than Yangcheon.
“I stole martial arts.”
Cheeeeeeeek!
A white haze rose from Yang Cheon’s body.
There was a faint desire to win in the fierce eyes.
“The more you fight, the stronger you become.”
“I will steal it well.”
“Let me steal it somewhere.”
Paaaaaaaa!
The two people rushed towards each other.
They rushed at almost the same speed, making it difficult to tell the difference.
