Dark and Light Martial Emperor - Chapter 97
Episode 97
Inevitability created by chance (3)
Namgung-sin, who went on a reconnaissance trip to Mt. Palgong, received a piece of secret information from Gyeong-gae. It was information about the magic school, which was full of people who raised the Anhui blood palace.
After seeing the detailed information about the opening, Namgung Shin immediately requested military support from the Namgung family. Although I don’t know exactly, I knew that their military power was on a different level from that of other small and medium-sized sects.
A secret sect that Kang-ho does not know about. Mysterious organization.
There were more such clans than I thought. In Gangho, there were as many as grains of sand, and as the saying goes, there were many sects that did not show themselves to the public.
The head of the Namgung family, Namgungin, sensed that this was not an ordinary situation and sent two more elders and three more armed forces.
With that much force, it had the power to wipe out a number of small and medium-sized factions within half an hour. It was a passage that showed how important Namgung-in considered this matter.
It was inevitable that the Geumgeommun Gate was destroyed due to the Anhui Blood Palace.
Geumgeommun was a sect praised by everyone. In northern Anhui, his popularity was even higher than that of the Nangong family.
Since such a sect was destroyed, it was right that the Namgung family, the losers of Anhui, should take revenge. However, five years passed and I did not even see the shadow of Anhui Blood Palace.
In the meantime, this kind of useful information was provided at the opening.
You can never give up. Nangong-in thought that he would use this opportunity to renew the atmosphere of Anhui and at the same time imprint the family’s reputation throughout the world.
Source is open. There was nothing to hesitate about as it was an absolutely certain certification.
In this way, Namgung’s troops headed to Taesan (泰山), the headquarters of Gwanilgok, Shandong.

“I canceled the Danjeon in advance because I was afraid of going on a rampage in the middle. “If we just transport it like this, it will be fine.”
“Thank you for your hard work.”
Informant Hwang Pung-jeong’s tone of voice changed.
It was worth it. Myeong Heo-rim was previously a peak expert who was considered one of the Ssangryong Sambong. He has even mastered magic, so what can I say about his inaction?
Yeon Ho-jeong subdued the master without even a scratch. It was a wonderful force.
“Oh, and tell this to Lord Moyong.”
“Please speak.”
“I received the gift you sent me well. “I tell you to look forward to my gifts in the future as well.”
“Is that okay?”
“That’s enough.”
“All right.”
“It’s a lot of hardship. “Let’s go now.”
“then.”
After sending off Hwang Pung-jeong, Yeon Ho-jeong headed straight to the base.
“hmm? “Aren’t you sleeping?”
Mukbi was sitting in the corner of the room with an awkward look on his face.
“I couldn’t sleep…”
“You probably haven’t slept well for a few days, right? rice is?”
“….”
“You haven’t even eaten?”
“I have no thoughts…”
Yeon Ho-jeong shook his head.
“Let me ask you one thing.”
“yes?”
“Are you planning to become a martial artist?”
This question was important.
Yeon Ho-jeong hoped that Muk-bi would be with him. Putting aside their past relationship, he desperately needed her power.
However, if she did not choose Moorim, I planned to let her go cleanly then.
It was unfortunate, but it was unavoidable. Rather than holding on to someone who has no heart, it is better to use that time to look for at least one more person with potential.
Mukbi shook his head.
“I haven’t decided yet.”
“Wrong.”
“yes?”
“That part has to be decided now. “It must be so.”
“Why why?”
“Because I am a martial artist.”
“….”
“You have learned martial arts, but it is difficult to call yourself a martial artist. The reason is that there is no conflict with any sect or martial artist in Gangho’s martial arts group. “If you want, you can go to a village right now and live by cultivating a field.”
“….”
“But if you follow me, the story will be different. I am a martial artist. And we are struggling to prevent disaster that will befall the world in the future.”
A disaster on earth.
Those were truly grandiose words. If someone else had said this, I would have laughed.
But Mukbi did not laugh at his words.
Yeon Ho-jeong’s expression was that serious. The voice carried through the air was full of power and majesty.
It was an atmosphere that no one could laugh at and that should not be laughed at.
“I need strength. The power to protect everyone. That is not a peace that can be achieved by being strong alone. But I have no intention of imposing the future I know on the world. Even if I did, I wouldn’t believe it.”
“I…”
“If you want a normal life, not a martial artist, I will help you both materially and spiritually. “Because I have that level of ability.”
It was a choice forced upon me by others.
But that was reality. As soon as she joins hands with Yeon Ho-jeong, she falls into the world of monsters called Murim.
A world where you don’t know when or how you will die. It is a bloody world where local wars between clans can break out over minor disputes, lives are lost due to pride, and people can be assassinated even without any support.
also.
A world of freedom where one is bound by many things and at the same time is not bound by anything. A romantic world where heroes who sacrifice their lives for the slightest help live and where even the enemies of Cheolcheon can forgive.
If you choose a normal life, you no longer need to be with Yeon Ho-jeong.
However, if you want to live in Murim, you just have to be with Yeon Ho-jeong. At least for the time being.
“I know that I am forcing an unreasonable choice on you who has never lived a proper life. Still, you have to do it. “I believe you can make this choice just by looking back on the life you have lived.”
Mukbi’s eyes trembled as he looked up at Yeonhojeong.
But even for a moment.
My somewhat dazed focus gradually came back to life, and my shaking eyes soon regained their calm.
After taking a deep breath to calm his mind, Mukbi spoke in a low voice.
“I am an archer. “I learned basic calligraphy and painting, but it still doesn’t change the fact that I am an archer.”
“Is Gwanilgok your enemy?”
Even though it was an unexpected question, Mukbi’s response was immediate.
“He is my enemy. enough.”
“I won’t ask you why you think that. Because it would be crazy. I’ll ask again. “Can you live in this world with the power given to you by your enemies?”
It was my first time.
For the first time, Mukbi showed something resembling a smile.
“I didn’t harm it with my own hands, but even borrowed someone else’s help?”
Yeon Ho-jeong smiled.
“What does that matter?”
“It means it’s meaningless. “That kind of thing.”
“haha.”
It was a pleasant room. Yeon Ho-jeong smiled selflessly.
“So, for archers, there is a world that suits archers?”
“For whatever reason, my life was all about being the best. And the life that suits me is not the life of tilling the fields and reading.”
Yeon Ho-jeong smiled and held out his hand.
“I will convince you. “So that you can always be with me so that you don’t fall away from me.”
Mukbi took his hand.
“But don’t kill my curiosity. “I may not have the ability to do that.”
Mukbi stood up, holding Yeonhojeong’s hand.
Grumble.
“Ah…”
Mukbi blushed.
Yeon Ho-jeong clicked his tongue.
“Before you choose your life, take care of it from the inside out. A martial artist must know how to maintain the best physical condition at any time and under any circumstances.”
“all right.”
“And how long has it been since you haven’t washed up?”
“…do you smell it?”
“I thought it was a wild man.”
It was red all the way to the neck. Well, after coming out of Mt. Palgong, I was completely out of my wits and couldn’t shower at all.
“Let’s go after we eat first, wash up, and sleep like we died. “You had a lot of trouble.”
“no.”
“Do you know how to drink?”
“Alcohol?”
“I can’t. Okay then. “Just order food.”
“Oh no. “I’ll take a shower first.”
“Like that.”
After opening the door and leaving, Mukbi suddenly looked at the windows all around the hallway.
The sky without a single cloud looked very refreshing. Birds that were not bound by anything flew in a flock in the sky.
Mukbi’s eyes, which were staring blankly at the birds, slowly turned red.
Because it was short but intense, it reminded me of Park In’s past life like a painter.
Recognized for his genius talent, he spent his entire life practicing martial arts, which was close to torture. Although I did not want to kill anyone, I lived trembling under the oppression of those who forced me to kill someone.
But that wasn’t what she wanted.
She wanted freedom and a humane life. He had a terrible hatred for the elders who told him that if he did not intend to become a noble archer, he would kill him on the spot because his life was not worth living.
In the end, all the brothers who hated him died, and he, who knew nothing, was left alone in the world.
I was so lonely. I didn’t want to go out into the world. I just wanted to go to any mountain and live with nature.
But it couldn’t be done.
Because I felt that if I lived like that, I would really be ruined.
I feel like I can’t come to my senses from frustration and loneliness, but I know that if I keep smiling, I will see the future.
‘Brother, sisters. sorry. But I’ll try my best.’
I felt guilty for surviving alone. Still, it won’t stop.
Mukbi took a deep breath and smiled broadly.
“I will live a better life than anyone else. “More than anyone else.”
At that time, the door opened and Yeon Ho-jeong spoke.
“What are you doing, man? “Don’t spread the smell in the hallway and go take a shower.”
Mukbi screamed without realizing it.
“Be quiet!”
Early morning the next day.
“Are you ready?”
“yes.”
“Okay, let’s move slowly.”
“But where are we going?”
“Originally, I was planning to go to Zhejiang because I had someone to meet, but I decided to go home first.”
“Home?”
“Okay, home. “I plan to go and eat a hot meal, get some rest, and then regroup before heading out.”
”
why? Are your hands itching already? “Are you dying to protest?”
“no. “I just… said I was going home.”
“do not worry. My father is a good person even if he doesn’t talk much. “My younger brother is so kind, so I won’t have any trouble getting along with him.”
“Ah, I get it.”
“Anyway…”
Yeon Ho-jeong looked at the bow on Muk-bi’s back.
“Does this seem like an increase in protests?”
Mukbi nodded.
“I guess my strength has increased a lot recently and I haven’t been able to control my strength.”
“Hmm, is that so?”
Yeon Ho-jeong did not bother to ask how his strength increased.
He suddenly looked at his axe.
The ax blade was full of rough scars. As they exchanged attacks and attacks that were so destructive, the blade got damaged. It was fortunate that the spear pole was not broken.
And the end of the spear.
There was no ring there. I would have to get ‘that’ item separately anyway, but maybe there was a good item.
“I guess I’ll have to stop by a blacksmith shop on the way. “Now I really have to prepare in earnest.”
There were still many things lacking.
They were not equipped with weapons, let alone martial arts. Preliminary work to stop the Saeumgyo has not even begun yet.
We have to start now.
The first step to stop the mad advance of the Saeumgyo, or rather the three fanatics.
The King of Darkness, who ruled the Black Island, disguised himself as the leader of Byeoksan and prepared for the future. The family he never had before and the comrades he met much sooner than expected will put wings on the tiger’s back.
History is being written completely differently than in the past.
Yeon Ho-jeong prayed earnestly that the new history he was creating would become the foundation for a peaceful future.
