Dark and Light Martial Emperor

Episode 19.

Muin’s values (3)

“Matriarch.”

“What’s going on?”

Even though it had been several years since Tae-kyung became the head of Yeon-ga, he was cautious and not polite to Yeon-wi.

“A letter has arrived from the Moyong family.”

“In Moyong?”

“Yes.”

There was a look of puzzlement on Yeonwi’s indifferent face.

The Moyong family was a member of the same Seven Great Families as Yeonga. Unlike Byeoksan Yeonga, it was also a traditional Murim family with a history of over 500 years.

Maybe that’s why Yeonga didn’t have much contact with the Moyong family. We had exchanged greetings a few times in the Jeongdo Murim Alliance, but that was the end of our relationship.

“Give it to me.”

“Here it is.”

Yeonwi’s eyebrows twitched as she read the letter.

Taekyung asked carefully.

“Is there a problem?”

“It’s a business proposal.”

“Business?”

Yeonwi, who placed the letter on the table, tapped the table with his index finger.

‘Let’s join forces?’

Jiangsu Province, where Yanjia is located, was a region with active maritime trade along with Zhejiang Province.

Of course, in the case of schools with a high reputation, they establish branch offices in Jiangsu and Zhejiang to conduct trade business. Yeonga, who settled in Jiangsu, was also engaged in a trading business.

‘Does Moyonga want to try this job too?’

In the past, the Moyong family was located in Liaoning Province, on the outskirts of the central plains. However, after the Hyeolgyoji Rebellion 300 years ago, they moved to Hunan Province, in the middle of the Central Plains.

Since they were located inland, I thought they would not be interested in maritime trade. But it seems that wasn’t the case.

Yeonwi thought for a moment and shook her head.

“I guess it won’t work either. Commander-in-Chief.”

“yes.”

“Please prepare paper, pencil and ink.”

“Ah yep!”

Yeonwi immediately wrote a letter to stop him. As a swordsman who was praised for his skill in both civil and martial arts, his technique was exquisite.

“Tell this to Moyonga.”

“All right!”

“Let’s just go out and see.”

Taekyung bowed his head and left the house.

Yeonwi, who was about to go back to work, suddenly looked at the window.

A seemingly invisible worry was cast over his indifferent eyes.

“…It must be cold there too.”

* * *

“Waaah!”

An expression of admiration that could not be hidden appeared on Yeon Ji-pyeong’s face.

“Awesome, bro!”

As we entered Hefei, there were noticeably more people.

That wasn’t all. The splendor of the city was truly amazing. It was comparable to Suzhou, which is said to be heaven along with Hangzhou.

Yeon Ji-pyeong looked around frantically. It was definitely different from Jiangsu Province, which is adjacent to the beach. Everything that was visible, from the buildings to the people’s clothing, was colorful and pleasing to the eye.

Jegal A-yeon, who was looking at Yeon Ji-pyeong excitedly, touched Yeon Ho-jeong.

“Your brother’s mood is almost like riding a wave. Until last night, it seemed like all the worries of the world had been taken care of. Is it because you live near the beach?”

“….”

“Do you usually do that?”

“Noisy.”

“Even if you say it, definitely.”

Yeon Ji-pyeong approached Yeon Ho-jeong with an excited face.

“older brother! older brother! Do you want to go out to that street over there? “Do you want to?”

An embarrassment appeared on Yeon Ho-jeong’s face.

“How about finding accommodation first?”

“You can stay anywhere! yes?”

Well, that’s true.

“Even if you look fine, rest will come first.”

Yeon Ho-jeong pointed to Zhuge Zhen and Zhuge Jun.

Yeon Ji-pyeong thought it was a mistake.

“ah! I’m sorry. “I was so excited…”

Jegal Zhenyeon smiled like a fool and waved his hand.

“Oh, it’s okay. Don’t worry about us, just go and have fun. “We can just go to the accommodation and catch it.”

Zhuge Jun also came forward and spoke.

“is it so. “There are about two days left anyway, so you can rest nearby in the meantime.”

The Zhuge siblings turned to Shinmo and asked at the same time.

“Yes?”

Shinmo cleared her throat.

“Grand Duke. What would you like to do?”

Everyone’s eyes naturally focused on Yeon Ho-jeong.

Yeon Ho-jeong looked around for a moment and nodded.

“I will be at the meeting hall first, so anyone who wants to come after playing can do so.”

“A risk!”

“Ah…”

A coughing sound and a sorrowful groan were heard at the same time.

Yeon Ho-jeong scratched his head.

I said this without thinking, but it seems like it could cause some misunderstanding.

“No, really, I don’t have to worry.”

“Hey, that’s not true though.”

Yeon Ho-jeong glared at Zhuge Zhen with his axe eyes.

Zhuge Zalyan shrank his neck like Zara. But I said what I had to say.

“If we decided to go together, it makes sense to move together. “Huh!”

“I guess you guys have separate things to do?”

“huh? “Something to do?”

“Shouldn’t we start by looking for the family guards who are most likely to have been ostracized by you?”

“100 million?!”

Zhugejun also straightened his limping leg, as if he had missed something.

Yeon Ho-jeong frowned.

“It’s worth knowing. “If we don’t find the guards before the meeting starts, the innocent guards will be returned to their families and beaten.”

“Oh, no!”

Paralock!

Zhuge Zhenyun suddenly put her arms around Zhuge Jun. There was no time for Zhuge Jun to stop him.

“We’ll go first! Shin Daehyup! See you at the meeting hall! Jeonga! See you again!”

“Ugh! sister! Take me down! “The company ledger…!”

“Shut up you weakling!”

Faba Park!

The Zhuge siblings disappeared in an instant. Everyone looked at the place where the Zhuge siblings had disappeared with bewildered expressions.

Yeon Ho-jeong muttered.

“You pretend to be friends until the end, that is.”

It was a situation where everyone had to be suspicious, regardless of whether it was a group of nine people or a group of seven people. The suspicion regarding the Zhuge family has almost been diluted, but you never know.

He had seen countless incidents unfold in unexpected situations. It was not yet time to let down our guard against the Zhuge family.

‘To know properly, you have to look at the family’s leading figures. ‘You can’t let down your guard.’

At that time, Yeon Ji-pyeong asked.

“older brother.”

“huh?”

“Let’s go to the meeting hall.”

“uh? “You said you wanted to look around that street?”

Yeon Ji-pyeong said with a bright smile.

“What fun would it be if you don’t go with me? are you okay.”

“There is no need to do that. Well then, we’ll be together until tonight….”

“No, no. If you think about it, we didn’t come to have fun. Even though it’s just a gathering, it can’t tarnish the family’s reputation. “You better calm down.”

Yeon Ho-jeong smiled.

‘I’m proud of you.’

They definitely think differently than boys at this age. He still has innocence, but his thoughts are also deep.

“Okay, let’s do that.”

“yes!”

So the group headed straight to the meeting hall.

As he headed toward the meeting hall, Yeon Ho-jeong fell into thought.

‘The late index meeting is in two days. It lasts for three days. It’s just a meeting, not a social gathering, so you have to find out everything you need to know in between.’

As it is a gathering of late leaders representing the seven major families, the number of members is small. Even if one family sent five or six people, there would be less than fifty people.

The important thing is to take a close look at each person’s martial arts skills and true potential. At Yeonhojeong’s current level, it was impossible to analyze other people’s internal strength just by looking at them.

‘It may not be a fight, but if there is rubbing or physical contact, somehow…’

That was at that time.

“sorry.”

“hmm?”

Yeon Ho-jeong looked at Yeon Ji-pyeong.

“What did you say?”

“sorry.”

“what?”

Yeon Ji-pyeong lowered his head.

“Actually, I heard you and Jegal talking in the forest yesterday.”

“know.”

“omg! Oh, did you know?”

Yeon Ho-jeong chuckled.

“You hid your true nature so poorly that you can’t help but notice it.”

“Ah…”

“There’s no need to be sorry about that. “If I had cared, I would have called you first.”

Yeon Ji-pyeong’s face turned red. It was an expression of shame and regret.

“That too.”

“hmm? Did I do something wrong again?”

“…It’s not like that, but I’m sorry anyway.”

Yeon Ho-jeong chuckled without realizing it.

At first, I didn’t know why my younger brother was doing that. However, during a conversation with Jegal A-yeon last night, I realized why Yeon Ji-pyeong was particularly quiet.

‘I was too insensitive.’

I had no intention of changing my methods and opinions. But I felt sorry for not paying attention to my younger brother.

Yeon Ho-jeong stroked Yeon Ji-pyeong’s head.

“Ugh! Brother Tongue!”

“You idiot, you shouldn’t keep saying you’re sorry when you’re so young. “It becomes a habit.”

“but…!”

“I am too subjective and rough, so I can’t get close to people easily. As a result, there are times when I try not to understand others. That’s why I don’t feel grateful or sorry.”

“….”

“You don’t have to be as extreme as me, but I don’t think it’s good to live with gratitude and apology in your mouth. “Being different doesn’t mean it’s wrong, right?”

“is that so?”

“I think so.”

Yeon Ho-jeong tried to avoid instilling his thoughts into his younger brother.

It just made me worry. This is because I wanted to become someone who sees things wider and deeper than myself, rather than someone like myself.

At the very least, I hoped that I would not become a person who mistakenly thought that I had established the authority established by others.

A strange light appeared on Shinmo’s face as he watched the brothers chatting loudly.

‘The friendship is very deep.’

This was what I thought when heading to Chosunru.

So I was secretly curious. This was because everyone knew that the Archduke had a terrible hatred for the Duke of Li.

But in reality, that wasn’t the case. To Shinmo, the Yeonga brothers seemed to have a deeper friendship than any other brothers in the world.

‘Besides…’

Shinmo’s eyes were stuck on Yeonhojeong’s back.

‘You were amazing.’

At the time, I didn’t think about it because the situation was urgent, but afterward, it was a series of surprises.

Although he was a martial artist, his judgment was especially outstanding. As if he had been through countless fire incidents, he came up with a surprisingly quick and clear response.

‘Where on earth did you get that experience?’

It is understandable if you think that martial arts were taught separately by the head of the family.

However, a series of actions to find a solution as naturally as breathing in a crisis situation was not something that could be learned by watching the crisis.

‘It wasn’t a skill I had experienced once or twice. I really don’t know even if I know it….’

“Shin Daeju.”

“yes? Oh yes!”

“I want a member to stand guard at the entrance to the meeting hall.”

Shinmo was startled and looked around.

Before we knew it, we had arrived at the entrance to the meeting hall. It was a meeting place, but it was just a rented manor. Of course, the manor was large enough to accommodate hundreds of people.

“Oh, of course.”

“And if anyone comes in, I want them to immediately report to me which family they belong to and how many there are.”

“I will follow your orders, Grand Duke.”

“good.”

Yeon Ho-jeong slowly relaxed his shoulders.

“Shall we go in?”

Shinmo knocked on the manor’s gate.

thud! thud!

“Are you inside?”

A voice came from inside as if it had been waiting.

“Who are you?”

“I’m from Byeoksan Yeonga, Jiangsu. “Please open the door.”

After a while.

Good!

When the door opened, the spacious interior of the manor came into view. And a group of people near the gate.

“Byeoksan Yeonga?”

“exactly.”

The man in front bowed his head.

“It is said to be the name of Sichuan. “It is an honor to meet the warriors of Yeonga.”

Sacheon and Han Ho-myeong.

Even though they had never seen each other before, Shinmo knew his identity right away.

“Han Ho-myeong, Poisonous Dragon Iron Pyeon (Poisonous Dragon Iron Pyeon)?!”

“haha! “It’s an honor to be recognized.”

Like Shinmo, Han Ho-myeong was also one of the best experts in a region.

Moreover, Shinmo and Han Ho-myeong had one more thing in common: they were members of the best martial arts family in the region.

Lightning flashed in Yeon Ho-jeong’s eyes.

Behind Han Ho-myeong, a young man with a moderate physique and sharp eyes appeared.

“Tang family.”
