Dark and Light Martial Emperor - Chapter 732
Episode 732
Invisible Eyes (7)
‘Hmm.’
Kang Ryang’s face looked quite indifferent as he looked out the window while drinking a cup of tea.
However, contrary to his expression, his head was spinning in a complicated manner.
‘It seems like something happened.’
Before parting ways, Yeon Ho-jeong’s face was more serious than I thought.
Of course, because the current situation was so harsh, every time I set a goal, it was never anything less than serious.
But this time it was different again. On the way to see a rare master named Biwang, he must use Ki Woo-hee to elicit a response from the Shinhwa Church.
Concentrating on just one of them is enough to give you a headache, but there have been a series of incidents where people have died before work has even begun.
An event so ambiguous that even Yeon Ho-jeong, who has good sense, has no idea how the situation is going.
‘What on earth is going on here?’
Suddenly, Kang Ryang remembered Yeon Ho-jeong’s eyes.
Those eyes, full of seriousness, were colored with deep concern for the common people.
‘You’ve changed a lot.’
Even when they first met, Yeon Ho-jeong did not care about the harm suffered by someone who was not related to the martial arts group.
However, Yeonhojeong at that time was much more goal-oriented than now. I only paid minimal attention to my surroundings and mostly ignored situations other than my immediate goals.
The current Yeonhojeong was different. No matter what the emergency, if something wrong happened, I tried to correct it first.
Kang Ryang was worried about Yeon Ho-jeong, but thought he was amazing.
‘Whatever the reason, if King Bi is nearby, there is a clear possibility that he may have been involved in an unknown situation.’
Kang-ryang sighed.
‘He’s a king….’
That was then.
“Would you like another cup of tea?”
The store owner smiled and approached Gangryang.
Kang Ryang said.
“Is there a car you can recommend?”
“All the teas at our store have a good scent. However, if you wish, I would like to make a recommendation.”
“Good.”
“What are your tastes?”
“I like it to have a heavy scent and a clean aftertaste.”
“What would you like the temperature to be?”
“As hot as possible without the scent escaping.”
The store owner’s eyes sparkled.
“I will upload it.”
He lowered his head and placed the folded paper on the table without anyone noticing.
When the store owner turned around, Kang Ryang secretly unfolded the paper.
Kang Ryang’s eyes sparkled.
After a while, Kang Ryang left the tea shop and entered a deserted mountain path.
“Are you here?”
A wild man appeared in front of Gangryang.
He looked more like a herbalist than a beggar. It was openness in disguise.
Kang Ryang asked.
“I’m curious about the current situation here. “A map of King Bi’s whereabouts.”
“I’ll tell you straight. Currently, King Bi’s exact location is unknown. This is because it is so new that if you think you found it, it disappears. “What is certain is that he is still around here.”
“I guess so.”
“But a mysterious group is fighting.”
“A mysterious group?”
“They are all experts who possess tremendous new techniques. The speed appears to be at the level of an advanced expert. “It is impossible to determine his actual strength, but it is clear that he uses memorization that is difficult to identify.”
Kang Ryang’s eyes wavered.
“Did King Bi raise his disciples?”
“Nothing has been confirmed. However, I received intelligence that experts with such distinct characteristics are killing each other.”
“each other?!”
“That’s right.”
Kang Yang touched his lips with his hand.
Openness opened its mouth again.
“And…”
A very cautious voice.
“Please speak.”
“There is one piece of information that is not accurate. It’s a difficult fact to confirm, and even if you try to find out, it’s impossible to access, but…” “
…?”
“There is a high probability that the Light Spirit Demon Army, one of the three armies, is here.”
Kang Ryang’s face turned pale.
“You sir?!”
“I’m not sure, but I discovered traces of fraud three days ago in the battleground of unknown masters. “Most of the traces had been erased, but one of the elders in the main room read the subtle fraud.”
“…!”
“You said that even though it has been a long time since the fierce battle took place, the level of morale is high enough to send chills down your spine. He also said that there was only one person in Danggeum Wulin who had trained at such a high level of boatcraft.”
Kangryang groaned without realizing it.
Openness bowed its head.
“This is the current situation near Banghyeon. Fortunately, there were no civilian casualties.”
“Thank you… what?!”
“yes?”
“No civilian casualties?”
“That’s right.”
“…this!”
Yeon Ho-jeong decided that a civilian may have been killed just in case, so he sent himself here and went out in person.
However, there have been no reports of civilian casualties, and if there is even a light spirit demon army in the king of rain.
What if Yeon Ho-jeong becomes caught among super experts whose purpose is unknown?
“I will follow in Brother Hojeong’s footsteps! “If you get a call from your brother, come find me right away!”
Paaang!
The river moved like a thunderbolt.
* * *
Gok-gyeong glanced back.
Yeon Ho-jeong, wearing a sword on his shoulder, was following with a stern look on his face.
‘That’s right.’
Masters who have opened their martial arts skills will reach a soaring level in all their existing martial arts skills.
However, each expert has different characteristics, and when you open the Mugeuk, those characteristics become clearer than before.
Isn’t he the owner of the divine law that is faster than any expert in the Holy Heaven? He was an expert who was literally like the wind, breaking through the limits of speed.
Yeonhojeong was different.
‘It’s solid in every way.’
The martial artist who killed the four soldiers.
Even though he was a junior, his martial arts skill, which eliminated enemies in an instant with a master’s level of swordsmanship, was so clean that it was admirable.
However, the new law that followed behind me was just as great as the Taoist law. The sense of stability that most light engineering masters could not imitate was impressive.
This does not mean that he opened the martial arts, but that he was excellent in the art of gyeongshinsul in the first place.
‘This guy is just like us.’
The corners of Gok-gyeong’s mouth rose.
‘He is a genius without fail.’
There are many people whose physical age significantly decreases when they open their martial arts skills according to their developed martial arts skills.
Even taking that into account, he must not have been over forty. A person of this age and at a level like this could truly be called a genius among geniuses.
At that time, Yeon Ho-jeong opened his mouth.
“Where are you going?”
“It’s east. “Time was delayed because of you.”
“hour?”
“I have someone to meet.”
Yeon Ho-jeong, who was silent for a moment, opened his mouth again.
“You say that, but you don’t seem to be in any particular hurry.”
Gok-gyeong snorted.
“Because it is clear that it will move on its own. “We don’t get along well anyway.”
“….”
“If it’s not us, we won’t pull out the sword so quickly. It’s a unique advantage. “That damn prudence.”
Displeasure was evident in his voice. I don’t know who it was, but it seemed like he wasn’t the right person.
Slurp!
Yeon Ho-jeong came right next to Gok-gyeong.
“Let’s talk while we go.”
Gok-gyeong said with a worried face.
“The world has changed so much. Even ten years ago, the relationship between seniors and juniors in Heukdo was quite cordial. “Is this because you are Tuwang’s disciple?”
Ten years ago?
“I didn’t know much about that in the first place.”
“Okay, see you, you cheap bastard.”
“But if it was 10 years ago, does that mean you stopped working in the Dark Island for 10 years ago?”
Although he seems stiff, he naturally calls me senior.
Gok-gyeong chuckled at that. This was because I felt that although it was stiff, there was at least some courtesy.
He had seen countless juniors lose their heads after belittling their opponents with their meager abilities. To him, the sight of Yeon Ho-jeong not being conceited even after performing in a martial arts drama was quite refreshing.
“That’s the way it is.”
Yeon Ho-jeong spoke in a somewhat subdued voice.
“Not only the three armies, but also the masters of the Immortal Emperor, there are not many whose whereabouts are clear. “I understand that even in the case of seniors, there is no separate affiliation.”
“….”
“I heard that you are not the type of person to work under someone else.”
Gok-gyeong snorted.
“Are you going to paint your face with gold now?”
“I was just saying what I heard. Even after being defeated by the greatest black swordsman of all time, you didn’t fall under him, right?”
He was a man who cleverly avoided being called a teacher.
Gok-gyeong’s face crumpled.
“Did you tell that to you?”
“I don’t think you need to get permission from your senior.”
“You damn old man.”
“You were very disappointed.”
“It’s a shame to regret it. “He must have been laughing hard while bragging about his record to his student.”
It must have been quite an embarrassing memory.
In fact, considering that the opponent was the fighting king Yang Cheon, it was not something to be ashamed of. It was confirmed that Gok-gyeong’s pride as a military officer was stronger than anyone else’s.
“I should listen to what I have to say, too.”
“what.”
“You asked me what my purpose was and I know where I belong, but I don’t know anything about you.”
“It’s not good to know. “You will find out naturally as you go.”
Yeon Ho-jeong, who was quietly looking at Gok-gyeong, suddenly asked.
“Do you belong to the imperial palace?”
Bababababaak!
A curve that strongly kicks the ground and slows down.
Yeonhojeong also slowed down along the curve.
“….”
There was silence.
Gok-gyeong’s eyes staring at Yeon Ho-jeong were very cruel.
“Why do you think it’s the imperial palace?”
That’s right.
Yeon Ho-jeong said.
“The noble army of the world, who did not belong to any part of the martial arts world, suddenly appeared. And that too, accompanied by people who look like subordinates.”
“….”
“If he were not a martial artist, he would be a government official, but considering the value of your name, I think it would be difficult to simply consider him a government official.”
“….”
“Would you, a proud gentleman, join us unless we were in a much higher place than that?”
The corners of Gok-gyeong’s mouth rose.
“It’s a guess?”
“exactly. But looking at my senior’s reaction, it seems to be true.”
Crunchy.
A bloody sound rang out from both of Gok-gyeong’s hands. Each of its ten fingers wriggled with a strange murderous intent.
Yeon Ho-jeong didn’t even blink when he saw that.
“You just guessed that? Do not lie.”
“….”
“Who did you hear it from?”
“I’ve never heard of it.”
“I ask for the last time. To whom…”
“If you wanted to hide it yourself, you shouldn’t have let your subordinates take out something similar to a matchlock gun.”
“…!”
Gok-gyeong’s face hardened.
Yeon Ho-jeong’s eyes deepened.
“Although manufacturing gunpowder is illegal, various sects in the martial arts clan are secretly involved in it. The best among them is definitely Dangga. However, I know that even the Tang family has never created such a delicate and threatening gunpowder weapon. “It’s difficult to do that in the first place.”
“….”
“Currently, the organization that holds the most raw materials for gunpowder is the Imperial Palace. If we were to make a miniaturized matchlock, wouldn’t it be highly likely that it would be for the imperial palace?”
Gok-gyeong, who was quietly looking at Yeon Ho-jeong, frowned.
“You’re pretty smart.”
“Thank you for the compliment.”
“The question is whether it will end with praise. “Today could be your memorial day.”
“I don’t think so.”
“Why do you think that?”
“The Mukryongbu and the Murim Alliance joined hands. And we also pay a lot of attention to the imperial palace. “To deal with a common enemy.”
It was a potentially dangerous statement.
If Gok-gyeong is connected to one of the three religions, this remark alone will cause Yeon-ho-jeong to be subjected to Gok-gyeong’s murderous attacks.
But Yeon Ho-jeong knew. Gokgyeong does not belong to the three religions.
Rather, he wanted to fight against the three religions, but he saw through it that he was a person who would never be on the same team as them.
“And then suddenly the King of Rain appeared. We think there is a possibility that he belongs to some kind of group operating secretly in the imperial palace.”
“….”
“Meanwhile, didn’t you say that we would want to kill King Bi? “What on earth did you see that made you think like that?”
“….”
“You know everything. “The fact that Boo and Maeng formed an alliance. And why they formed an alliance.”
Slurp.
The killing intent disappeared from Gok-gyeong’s hands.
Yeon Ho-jeong asked directly.
“Are you one of Her Majesty’s Majesty?”
“That doesn’t sound the same.”
Gok-gyeong lifted his chin.
“There is no one on this continent I can follow except the Master of the World.”
Yeon Ho-jeong’s eyes wavered.
Master of the world.
Regardless of his actual influence, he is the only powerful figure who has been designated as the master of the world for hundreds of years.
“…Your Majesty the Emperor?!”
