Possessing a Murim Clan’s Youngest Son - Chapter 147
Episode 147. Unexpected development
Tak Buyong said with a worried expression.
“Well… now that I think about it, it’s really sad.”
The audience’s eyes focused on Zhuo Buyong.
The person who asked the question on behalf of Shaolin was Master Jangmun Hyeonbeop.
“Long text. “What do you mean?”
Tak Buyong said while sighing.
“We decided to keep it confidential from the beginning, but… I’m sure everyone who gathers here knows. ah! no. no. Please pretend you didn’t hear it. “I seem to have said something in vain, so please forgive me…”
At that time, Qin Ho-liang, the leader of the Kunlun Sect, shouted loudly.
“Are you kidding me? “If you don’t want to do it, you can just throw it in your stomach and keep it to yourself. Why are you spitting it out?”
The soldiers who heard those words felt refreshed, even though they thought the words were a bit harsh.
Because everyone was thinking the same thing.
Then Tak Buyong nodded and said.
“Hmm… What Jang Mun-in of the Kunlun Sect said also makes sense… So, I will tell you with faith in the great guilds.”
He stood up from his seat and continued speaking.
“Some of you may know, but… the Qingcheng faction was actually attacked by an unidentified force not long ago. Because of that, we suffered tremendous damage.”
Partially mumbling sound.
As expected, those who knew knew and those who did not know did not know.
Jin Ho-ryang was angry again.
“But what does it matter!”
Zhuo Bu-yong looked at Jin Ho-ryang with clear eyes and said.
“It was so bad that I stopped talking without realizing it…”
“What do you mean?”
“Zhonglimae. iced coffee. How distressed that young friend must have been. Not long after the family was embroiled in corruption, even the recluse got into big trouble…”
Then, all eyes focused on Han Ibi again.
Han Ibi was taken aback and was at a loss as to how to respond.
At that time, I heard Jangmun Jin Haoliang of the Kunlun Sect scratching his chin and speaking.
“That is truly an unfortunate incident…”
This time, the gaze of the military leaders was focused on Jin Ho-ryang.
Jin Ho-ryang said to Han Yi-bi.
“I keep thinking about Jong-li because he keeps mentioning it. Do you know our Kunlun Sect’s Qibonglin? So… I’m asking if you’ve ever visited Yeoseonpyo Bureau.”
Han Ibi immediately remembered what happened at Yeo Seon-pyo Bureau.
He is a master hidden in the mainstay of Yeo Seon Pyo-guk and a friend of Pyo Guk-ju Cheon Shin-woo…
That’s right.
His affiliation was none other than the Kunlun faction.
Han Ibi hesitated for a moment, but answered because she thought she wouldn’t be able to fool her anyway.
“I know… I’ve seen you before.”
Jin Ho-ryang nodded and said.
“Right. In fact, the person whom Gi Bong-rim asked to convey the message to the Cheongseong faction was Jong Ri-hyeok. “Do you know him?”
Han Ibi nodded.
“That’s right. He is an alumnus of our Qingcheng sect and a descendant of another remaining member of the Zhong family.”
Then the rumbling sound again.
Jin Ho-ryang said.
“It’s okay to talk about it here… Just come see me before you come back.”
“All right. “I will definitely come to see you.”
At that time, Jang Gwan-yeol (甘昭悅), the only Confucian member of the Bangpa Manhak Society, spoke.
“Now that I think about it, if it’s Yeo Seon Pyo-guk… didn’t the whole family mysteriously disappear not long ago? “Are you talking about that place?”
Jin Ho-ryang nodded and said.
“That’s right….”
The atmosphere becomes somewhat colder.
Han Ibi heard someone whispering in her ears.
“That’s really strange. Not only my family, but even the clan I was affiliated with was mysteriously attacked…”
“That’s right. Moreover, it is said that he even went to Yeoseonpyo-guk where his entire family disappeared…”
“Oh my! Now that I think about it… I don’t think I’ve ever heard the name Zongrimae before.”
“I’ve heard of it, but… no way.”
Those words became a trigger and triggered associations in the minds of some people.
Jonglimuroe.
The only news that came to Kangho from the ruined famous family.
It was a story about ‘Jongrimae’, the family’s daughter-in-law.
Just as you hear a murmur coming from all over the place.
Tak Buyong’s firm words were heard.
“Everyone, please don’t make rash predictions. Zhongli Small Association is not obligated to respond individually. “Isn’t that right?”
Although Han Ibi was in a cold sweat, she answered as calmly as possible.
“yes. Of course it is.”
Tak Buyong looked around at the audience and said.
“As members of the same Murim Alliance, we must protect and help our colleagues who have fallen into a series of misfortunes.”
At that moment, Han Ibi thought of many things.
That guy named Tak Bu-yong… is a much more cunning and evil bastard than he thought.
Now, he is pretending to do something for himself, but is instead maximizing suspicion.
This is… a kind of trap.
Tak Buyong is the culprit who raised all these suspicions, but he is actually pretending to help himself!
What a piece of trash.
Cheon Du-hong, who was presiding at that time, said.
“Now, the schedule has been delayed so much because we were talking about other things. “The vice-lord has waited too long.”
Then, Tang Cheong-jeong (唐淸精), deputy leader of the Murim League, who was sitting at the head table in the capacity of acting leader, stood up and spoke.
“Why should I wait? Lord Maeng is very sorry for not being able to attend the important meeting due to his busy schedule.”
Tak Buyong said.
“It’s not like that. Due to the current situation… we are only more sorry for not being able to take the leader’s schedule into consideration.”
“haha. no. “Everyone is waiting, so let’s get started quickly.”
He walked towards the podium and spoke.
“Three people have registered as candidates for the next Murim Lord. “Do you have any additional factions you would like to support?”
Tang Qingzheng waited for a moment and looked around the crowd.
Silence filled the space.
Tang Qingzheng opened his mouth again.
“great. To prevent confusion, the leader wants the next leader to be decided quickly. So… I think it would be better to come to a conclusion right away at this general meeting with all three candidates attending.”
Then, the inside of the flue pipe suddenly fell into a huge commotion.
This is because everyone knew that ‘let’s come to a conclusion’ meant ‘let’s come to a conclusion through martial arts.’
At that time, one of the candidates, Jin Haoliang of the Kunlun faction, spoke in a loud voice.
“You mean right here?”
Tang Qingzheng shook his head and said.
“no. I would like to see what it would be like if we held the event at the training center tomorrow afternoon. “If all three of you agree.”
“But the leader isn’t there either…”
“Hahaha. “So many people are going to be witnesses, so what’s the point of worrying?”
It’s not wrong.
A rumbling sound was heard again.
Many of the military leaders seemed excited by the unexpected spectacle.
If everyone is watching a fight, aren’t they the martial arts people who can’t use their own limbs?
Tak Buyong said.
“Ahaha. This is true. Lord Maeng definitely has a different side from ordinary people. I feel like I got punched… Well, I am a shaman, so it’s perfect, but I don’t know if it will be a burden to other hordes.”
‘Huh… look at that.’
Han Ibi stuck her tongue out inwardly.
Isn’t that a trap that makes it impossible for the other two candidates to refuse?
As expected,
Namgung Myeong of the Namgung Family and Jin Ho-ryang of the Kunlun Sect, who thought for a moment, had no choice but to agree to the Vice Lord’s proposal.
Chen Duhong said.
“Now, the last item on the agenda. “This is a matter about the position of Gufileilbang.”
Then the soldiers stopped chatting and looked at Cheon Du-hong.
Chen Duhong said.
“If there is a representative of a new faction who would like to challenge the status of the old faction, please let us know.”
There was silence for a moment.
Chen Duhong spoke again.
“If there is no supporting faction, just like this….”
“We will do it!”
A bright voice.
People’s eyes turned to the person responsible for the voice.
It was Han E-bi, raising her hand.
“We, the Qingcheng faction, will challenge this time to restore the status of the old faction and one party.”
* * *
The rules for a faction that was not an old file room to belong to an old file room were simple.
Pick one of the current old file rooms and challenge it.
Naturally, weaker factions become targets.
It was the same process that led the Qingcheng faction to give up its status as an old faction a decade ago.
The only difference is that instead of accepting the challenge of the Jeomchang faction, he abstained…
It was truly a rare shame in the martial arts world in recent times.
Now, more than ten years later… the reputation of the Qingcheng faction is on the verge of collapse.
Yesterday, at the moment when the challenge was announced, Han Eibi said.
[We, the Cheongseong faction… will challenge the Jeomchang faction.]
There were no surprises.
But it was fun.
Anyway, the revenge match is a very interesting element.
The Jeomchangpa who received the challenge had to set a date for the confrontation no later than sixty days from that date.
Anyway, that was it….
Now, an even more interesting event was about to unfold before Hanibi’s eyes.
It’s a long-winded interview between candidates.
This was not an opportunity I would easily obtain in my entire life.
The only thing that bothers me is that there is no way to punish Tak Buyong right now.
These are issues that would be difficult to uncover even if revealed here and now.
‘Even if we make a hundred concessions and expose it, one of the victims is already married, and the other is Tak Buyong’s nemesis mage whose identity is not even clear….’ If you
throw it out carelessly, it’s easy to get hit first.
‘Moreover, the other person’s identity is Myeong-suk of the martial arts faction. ‘It’s obvious without even looking at whose hand will be raised.’
Non-partisan non-stage.
A non-stage for events, not training, was installed near a steep cliff, adding to the charm.
The representatives of the Murim League were saddened by the competition between the leading powers, but were glad that something to see was created.
As the time approached, people became increasingly excited…
Han Ibi decided to slowly think of an alternative while watching the dance.
Some kind of unofficial, but very deadly alternative…
Han Ibi thought like that and turned her gaze forward.
I saw Namgung Se, Namgung Myeong, and Jin Ho-ryang of the Kunlun faction warming up.
As expected from the best of the best, they exuded extraordinary energy even in the midst of ordinary movements.
At that time, I saw two people walking towards this side of the non-stage.
It was Tak Buyong and Tang Jeongcheong, the deputy leader of the Murim League.
Han Ibi saw that and thought.
‘huh? But why are their expressions so serious…’
said Tak Buyong, who arrived at the off-stage like that.
“First of all… as the person who hosted today’s meeting, I think I should apologize to the various martial arts comrades.”
Then the crowd’s attention focused on Tak Buyong.
Tak Buyong said.
“The vice-lord called an emergency meeting last night. “Some people here also secretly joined us.”
At that time, the vice-lord received a message.
“We, the Murim Alliance, have actually received some intelligence. “It was a story about a spy of the Demonic Cult.”
The soldiers began to murmur.
“The Demonic Cult has been making plans for a long time. After brainwashing young children and teaching them magic… “The plan is to infiltrate small and medium-sized factions belonging to the Murim League.”
Tak Bu-yong spoke again.
“They make full use of their magic skills and display outstanding skills. Despite its many side effects, Magic Gong is unrivaled in terms of short-term effectiveness. A spy can use his martial arts skills to occupy important positions in the clan and the Murim Alliance.”
At that time, Namgung-myeong, the head of the Namgung family, frowned and said.
“Why are you saying that before something as important as today?”
Tak Bu-yong took a deep sigh and said.
“I also hoped that the intelligence was just… unfounded. But yesterday… we discovered a person who exactly matched the intelligence information.”
When Namgoongmyeong tilted his head, his long beard twitched.
“Who does that mean?”
Zhuo Buyong sighed again and said.
“Now you all know this person. Of course, the Vice Lord will investigate and make it clear so that you are not falsely accused.”
Namgungmyeong asked loudly again.
“So who on earth is that spy?”
Tak Buyong said.
“This is Zhonglimei of the Qingcheng Sect.”
‘100 million!’
Han Ibi was so shocked that she couldn’t even make a sound.
