Possessing a Murim Clan’s Youngest Son - Chapter 161
Episode 161. Han Ibi, in Jeomchang’s district
, had a lot of worries alone.
The news that the Cheongseong faction had challenged the Jeomchang faction had already spread throughout the entire martial arts world.
A revenge match with the title at stake.
What an interesting development this is….
Although the process was scheduled to be conducted privately, this secret dance was already on the lips of numerous martial artists.
“Qingcheng faction? “Didn’t they end up a long time ago?”
“Ugh? “It looks like the Qingcheng faction is still active.”
“It seems like the fortune-telling group is doing well these days… but I guess they’ll just end up being shamed for no reason.”
“Anyway, I guess this is the last struggle of the failing Cheongseong faction. what.”
“Still, I heard that the Blue Star Sect produced one of the Five Demon Dragons this time?”
“Arthur. “If he has any thoughts, he will quickly move to another sect.”
If Jong Ri-hyuk had been there, it would have been of great help to the military…
Unfortunately, his whereabouts were still unknown.
He is probably busy trying to avenge his family.
And…
if you follow the flow of the Yeomsaji dream, you will have gained several opportunities in the process.
In any case, in the current situation, the Qingcheng faction has no choice but to make the most of the resources it already possesses.
On the other hand, Han Ibi asked Bok Yeon Hwa a favor.
I want you to teach me about the other seasons of the Cheongseong Sect during the remaining period.
Of course, this is not because the martial arts itself is disappointing.
Didn’t he learn a lot of advanced martial arts while traveling around Gangho recently?
However, if one used martial arts from another school during an official event to compete for rank in the martial arts clan, one would become a public laughing stock.
Even if you win, you won’t be recognized.
Anyway, for this reason, the sword techniques taught by Bok Yeon-hwa as an attribute are the Cheongpunggeombeop and the Cheongunjeokhageom.
Although it was a somewhat unfamiliar martial art, Han Ibi mastered it in an instant.
Should we say that the logic of martial arts worked?
This is because the higher you go, the more the path of martial law moves in one direction.
On the other hand, Han Yi-bi persuaded Bok Yeon-hwa to teach Ok Geun-tak So Eun-ri, who had the potential to be a member of the Jeomchang faction, to learn the ‘Gyeongpyeon Sohaegeom’.
In the process, Han Ibi generously revealed the feelings she had gained to the two people.
So Eun-ri and Ok Geun-tak couldn’t help but be surprised by Han I-bi, who suddenly became a different ‘level’ from them.
However, with the clear goal of ‘overthrowing Jeomchang’, it was decided to set aside some doubts.
So, even though it was a short period of time, the two young experts were able to achieve remarkable growth.
That’s the good news.
Of course, unfortunately, it was impossible to teach anything to Nam Cheol-hong and Lee Shin-song, who had to attend together, but…
In any case, basically, if they were to compete for a place in the nine-file group, it would not be decided in just one or two meetings.
Although the details may change somewhat after the meeting, it was clear that it would at least be advantageous for a majority to win.
Han Ibi also studied the Jeomchang school diligently.
Jeomchangsan Mountain, where Jeomchangpa is located, spans the border between Sichuan and Yunnan, but a large part of its area was allocated to Yunnan.
Therefore, in geographical classification, it can be said to be closer to Yunnan than Sichuan.
However, Jeomchang made every effort to be incorporated into the Sichuan region rather than Yunnan, which was classified as a remote area for generations.
This was because only then could they establish a proper position in the Murim Alliance.
And the true value of that policy was being demonstrated at a time when the Qingseong faction was taking away the old faction’s status as one faction.
The status of the Jeomchang faction was increasing day by day, and the Cheongseong faction was no longer a concern.
There was not even the slightest doubt that the Cheongseong faction’s challenge would end in vain.
Therefore, sending his greatest disciple Wang Tae-yu (王太喩) to meet him at Awon Gaekjan (阿遠客盞), which was about two days away by carriage from Jeomchang Sect, was nothing more or less than showing the minimum martial arts etiquette.
Although the journey was not long, large-scale movements are always accompanied by fatigue.
Han Ibi and her group were undressing and having a meal at Ahwon Guesthouse.
A chubby man with excessively thick hair approached me.
He walked straight towards Yeonhwa Bok, politely politely said,
“Aren’t you Jangmun Bok of the Cheongseong Sect?”
Bok Yeon-hwa glanced at him and said.
“That’s right….”
“Ah! I see. ha ha ha. “I am a disciple of the Jeomchang school and my name is Wang Tae-yu.”
The man named Wang Tae-yu turned his gaze and looked around at Han Yi-bi and the others and said.
“More people came than expected. “Well, that’s good.”
It was a very rude remark that could be interpreted as something similar to ‘Do you mean to try to do it by hand because you are not good enough?’
Ok Geun-tak and others were in tears for a moment, but due to the situation, they remained silent.
Yeonhwa Bok said.
“Did Zhou Jangmun send you?”
The person referred to as Zhu Jangmun is none other than Ju Se-cheong (朱世淸), the current Jangmun of the Jeomchang sect.
Along with Yang Sa-won (梁司元), a leading scholar of the previous generation, he is a major contributor to the development of the Jeomchang faction from an ordinary sect on the border to a member of the old faction.
Wang Taiyu said with a grin.
“Well, that’s right. “Because you have to set a basic example.”
Once again, the atmosphere becomes unusual.
This author, Wang Tae-yu, was a human being who fell far short of normal standards of etiquette.
Moreover, he was not an elder, but an ordinary disciple…
Maybe he did it on purpose to lower the status of the Qingcheng sect.
Wang Taiyu said.
“Jangmun told me to bring the guests from Cheongseong.”
Yeonhwa Bok said.
“Thank you for your kindness.”
“Oh well, of course I have to do this. If you get lost, won’t we be in trouble? Our group of singers is no longer the group of singers of the past, so you may not recognize us. ha ha ha.”
Han Ibi and the others who were listening to his words were seething inside.
This guy, Wang Tae-yu or whatever, was absolutely not the type of person to be dispatched to meet someone like this.
It was then.
“This is such an obvious trick.”
People’s attention was focused on the person who spoke.
Surprisingly, it was Han Ibi.
He sat down and eagerly ate his dumplings, regardless of whether other people greeted him or not.
Then, the person who became embarrassed was Wang Tae-yu of the Jeomchang faction.
he asked, blushing.
“Are you just saying this to me?”
Han Ibi said while still chewing Wagu Wagu dumplings.
“Then would you believe me if I told someone else?”
Then Wang Tae-yu began to fuss.
It felt like steam was coming out of my nostrils.
“who are you?”
“It is said to be the Zhonglimei of the Qingcheng Sect. ah! You may not know the name. But if you think about it carefully, you may have heard of the nickname Jong-ri Muroe.”
Wang Taiyu said.
“This is my first time hearing this, but it’s a perfect nickname! But you will have to take responsibility for what you said a moment ago.”
Then Han Ibi clicked her tongue and shook her head.
“Tsk tsk tsk. A person who doesn’t even know that he or she is being used as a tool… Maybe that’s why it’s so fitting.”
Wang Tae-yu, who could no longer bear it, exploded.
“What nonsense are you talking about!”
“It’s a side effect of reading too much.”
“what?”
“You scholars or elders…”
Wang Taiyu was grinning but looked confused as he could not understand what he meant.
“…It seems like those people have read too much about the art of war.”
“I beg your pardon?”
“Your name is…”
“My name? My name is King….”
“Brother King!”
“What the tongue… bro.”
“Brother Wang, are you doing well in the fortune-telling group?”
Then, Wang Tae-yu hesitates for a moment.
Hanibi nodded as if she understood and said.
“Well, you don’t have to talk about it. “If you pretend, it’s okay.”
“what? Chuck Tak?”
“There is such a thing. “Do you think you are so proud that you came to meet our Qingcheng faction?”
“If not, is there any other reason?”
“That personality.”
“what?”
“That mysterious ability to turn someone else’s insides from the moment you first meet them.”
Wang Taiyu’s absurdity reached its peak and he was speechless.
“If it were an ability, it would be an ability. “You were selected for this position because of your abilities.”
Then Wang Tae-yu suddenly got angry.
“No, let’s see…”
“I’m trying to subdue the steamer, or if not, at least inflame him. It’s about getting the other person excited. This is the basics of military strategy. Besides…”
Han Yi-bi said, glancing at the two people dressed as merchants who were drinking from a distance.
“I’m sure he didn’t come alone, but he will analyze the current situation and report it. “Someone.”
It’s not that they weren’t, but the merchants had a calm expression, but it felt like their demeanor had become noticeably more cautious.
Ebi Han added.
“Well, I applaud your efforts… But if you’ve become a member of an old school, wouldn’t it be better to use a strategy that matches yours?”
“What nonsense are you talking about?”
“you’re right. gibberish. However, if you don’t want to make things bigger, it would be better to show at least some courtesy. “To be honest, you don’t have the ability to fix it, do you?”
Han Yi-bi looked straight at Wang Tae-yu.
Wang Taiyu hesitated and licked his lips, but was unable to finish speaking.
At that time, Shinsong Lee spoke.
“aha. Right. I almost got angry because I couldn’t understand the deep meaning of the main sentence. Hehehe. It’s impossible to do good things to others. As expected, my insight into Jong-ri Sajil has improved considerably since I drank the water outside.”
Nam Cheol-hong also said with a grin.
“I see. “I see you, King Daehyeop.”
Wang Tae-yu raised his eyebrows and looked at Nam Cheol-hong.
“No matter what anyone says, isn’t this the area of the Jeomchang faction?”
Wang Taiyu said.
“Of course.”
“Good. Since we are guests of Jeomchangpa, we will wear a drink with the name of Jeomchangpa.”
“Oh no… that’s….”
At that time, Nam Cheol-hong spoke louder as if all the other guests could hear.
“No way, is it true that the financial situation is so bad that it is difficult for the Great Jeomchang Sect, a member of the Nine Files Ilbang, to even entertain guests? If so, Wang Dahyeop, please come here and have a drink. “We, the Cheongseong faction, will give it a try.”
Then Wang Tae-yu got angry and said.
“joy! “We, the Jeomchang faction, are not that poor.”
“Then I will eat well. “Thank you.”
Meanwhile, it was Nam Cheol-hong, chewing the dumpling while making a chewing noise.
At that moment, Han Ibi realized.
The fact is that these two people, Lee Shin-song and Nam Cheol-hong, are not inferior to anyone in Kangho when it comes to their ability to turn people’s minds upside down.
They were the people of the Cheongseong faction who quenched their thirst with such joy.
Han Ibi glanced at the merchants who were drinking.
But before I knew it, they had disappeared.
* * *
Wang Tae-yu continued to look like he had chewed shit ever since that day.
There was nothing to gain by talking about it, so I just rode on and hurried my steps.
At that time, Han Ibi said.
“Wang Daehyeop. “Is it still far to reach Mt. Jeomchang?”
Wang Tae-yu answered.
“It’s already Mt. Jeomchang.”
“aha. Then you’re almost there. Thank you for coming all the way to see me off. “I will not forget Master Jangmun’s sincerity.”
It was then.
“uh?”
Wang Taiyu tilted his head.
Then he suddenly pulled the reins, stopped the horse, and jumped off the horse.
Then he walked hastily towards somewhere.
There was a building there that, although not fully formal, was suitable for people to stay for a while.
Ebi Han said.
“It looks like they also operate a guard post. “It’s very organized… except there are no guards.”
At that time, Wang Taiyu spoke.
“Where did Hyeon-cheol go? He’s not the type of kid to leave his seat…”
Han I-bi said toward Ok Geun-tak, who was driving the carriage with Jang-moon and the elders.
“It would be best to stop for a moment.”
Then, Han Ibi jumped off the horse and walked toward that side.
“Is there something wrong?”
Wang Taiyu said, wiping the sweat from his forehead with his sleeve.
“no.”
Han Ibi approached the wooden building.
Wang Tae-yu was still frowning and seemed to be looking for the missing person… but
Han Yi-bi’s voice sounded as if he had found something.
“It looks like someone woke up with strength.”
