Dark and Light Martial Emperor

Episode 873

Eyes of the Kings (5)

Enlightenment is not something that is given and received like an object. It can’t be done in the first place.

Even Mo Yong-woo would not know that. Still, he said that.

Yeon Ho-jeong, who came with a somewhat light heart, was able to see the self-destruction, tremendous improvement, and anger on Mo Yong-woo’s face.

‘Anger.’

The target of that anger was none other than himself.

Yeon Ho-jeong said calmly.

“People feel the need for extreme change in extreme environments. But there are also people who are not like that.”

“….”

“I am a person who cannot give enlightenment. Anyone can do that. “In order to reach a higher place, you must try to change yourself rather than seeking help from others.”

Mo Yong-woo nodded.

“Yes, I know.”

It’s not someone you don’t know. Yeonho already knew.

Yeon Ho-jeong said with a smile.

“Are you feeling anxious?”

“Nervousness… yes, there is that too. But that’s not everything.”

Mo Yong-woo sighed.

“As the head of Uijeong-gun, I feel full of pride. “Even though it is not a position I wanted, I was able to reflect on my own foolishness in giving up everything in the past.”

“….”

“I also realized how precious and rewarding it is to be together.”

“Fortunately, the.”

“But the soldiers would have grown well even if it wasn’t for me. Rather…”

Mo Yong-woo closed his eyes.

“Thanks to the soldiers, I was able to sustain myself where I am today. “I didn’t lead them, they led me.”

Why?

His expression and voice were completely different from his usual Mo Yong-woo.

With just one small trigger, a person can enter a realm that is completely different from their previous self.

People call it immersion. Immersion was the key to change.

“I don’t want to be separated from them. However, if being with them takes me further away from my own perfection, I want to do it even if it means enduring the pain of tearing off a piece of my flesh.”

This cannot be seen as an irresponsible statement.

Every warrior in this world dreams of his own perfection. It may not be limited only to those who engage in martial arts.

‘now?’

Yeon Ho-jeong, who was quietly looking at Mo Yong-woo, shook her head inwardly.

‘Not now. Maybe he thought for a long time that this was not the place he belonged.’

It is said that you may know the inside of ten roads, but you do not know the inside of a person of one road. It is a phrase often used to mean not to trust people easily, but it fundamentally means that it is extremely difficult to see through a person’s mind and heart.

In a confrontation with an enemy, Yeon Ho-jeong was able to read the opponent’s mind and aim for a fatal loophole, in fact, simply by reading the ‘intention’ of that moment. It is impossible for another person to see through the mind of another person unless he or she is a hermit.

‘When I think about it, was I too insensitive?’

I was on my way to meet Okcheong.

But Mo Yong-woo was also there. It was as if there was a defeat when I went to meet the party official.

Yeon Ho-jeong suddenly felt bitter.

‘Once again, I’m a really bad guy too.’

Just as Mo Yong-woo looked back at himself for a moment and faced a time of change.

Yeon Ho-jeong also looked back at herself and realized that it was a moment when change was necessary.

It was a completely different kind of enlightenment than realizing the yellow dragon.

The emotion in Mo Yong-woo’s shaking eyes was similar to the embarrassment of a lost Mia. Considering Mo Yong-woo’s ability, talent, and personality, it is an extremely unsuitable word, but there is no other expression that is more suitable.

‘ah!’

Yeon Ho-jeong sighed.

‘It shouldn’t have been that way.’

Those who discuss life, those who discuss the world.

Those who move forward without hesitation with outstanding talent and insight do not dwell on the past. They do not complain that their lives have gone astray due to the influence of others.

For example, Moyong-gun and Yangcheon were like this.

Yangcheon suffered great damage because of Yeonhojeong. At least, if he had stubbornly maintained his pride until the end, he would have accepted all of his actions as harm.

But Yang Cheon didn’t do that. Rather, he thought about why Yeon Ho-jeong said and did such things, and eventually realized that there was something wrong with him.

Although he actually suffered damage, he did not blame Yeon Ho-jeong or stay away from him. I recognized it as a better stimulant and even harbored the ambition to make it my own person.

That is what was great about Yang Cheon and why Yeon Ho-jeong recognized him as a great scholar. Even though he acquired enviable power and martial arts skills that were considered the best in the world, he did not blame the unfortunate events that occurred around him, but instead used them as fertilizer to make his life bloom.

What about Moyong-gun?

I couldn’t give up one greed until the end, so I made all kinds of accusations and even cursed at Yeon Ho-jeong, lamenting several times that if I had done this or that, my life would have been much better.

However, reality did not change, and eventually Mo Yong began to look at himself rather than his surroundings.

As a result, Prince Moyong changed himself.

In a way, it was a greater change than Yangcheon. Yeon Ho-jeong was often gentle and soothing towards Yang Cheon, but he was always sharp towards Mo Yong-gun.

In this way, the two people let go of the past and their anger towards the person who pushed them into a corner. Furthermore, after giving up his greed, he figured out the direction he should go in.

What about Mo Yong-woo?

Mo Yong-woo has never shown anything like that. Due to his outstanding talent, he was called the Tiger Sword Ssangwi along with Yeon Ho-jeong, but his rapid growth stopped there.

Until Yeon Ho-jeong ascended to the rank of martial arts and engraved his name in Seongcheon, Mo Yong-woo still remained as the head of Uijeong-gun.

But is that something to be dismissed as ugly?

Is it a matter of clicking one’s tongue and saying that it is the slow pace of a lackey like Yangcheon or Moyonggun who has not properly looked after himself?

‘Absolutely not.’

Mo Yong-woo came to the Murim Alliance thanks to or because of Yeon Ho-jeong.

In other words, his life underwent a great change due to Yeon Ho-jeong.

Once you have witnessed a change, from then on, you must clearly set a life goal for where you are heading and then run forward without hesitation. That is the royal road.

Mo Yong-woo couldn’t do that.

Is it because they are not as good as Yangcheon or Moyong-gun?

‘It’s my fault.’

It is up to Mo Yong-woo himself to think about whether the time is right or whether his abilities are there. Actually he is doing that now.

The problem was Yeonhojeong.

‘I told my brother that I wanted to become the leader of a new era. And he said he was ready to do anything for that dream. to the end.’

It instilled confidence without reason. Mo Yong-woo brushed it off, saying that Yeon Ho-jeong might have his own thoughts, but he still had no intention of becoming a Murim lord.

Nevertheless, Yeon Ho-jeong constantly persuaded him.

No matter how strong and clear Mo Yongyu’s will is, a single word from someone who can influence the world itself can shake the soul.

Even though Yeon Ho-jeong told Mo Yong-woo that he had no talent other than you to become the Murim lord, he never gave him a proper explanation as to why he should do so.

Even if you don’t tell the reason, you can solidify the path to that goal, but Yeon Ho-jeong couldn’t even do that.

Because of the fight against the Three Religions?

That is literally just an excuse. Because I was busy, I couldn’t take responsibility for my words and actions, so in the end, it could be said that it was Yeonhojeong’s fault.

Mo Yong-woo has not yet bloomed, and Yeon Ho-jeong has not been able to take responsibility and help the other person to bloom. That was the problem the two were facing now.

Yeon Ho-jeong, who was quietly looking at Mo Yong-woo, lowered his head.

“sorry.”

Mo Yong-woo, who was staring blankly at the sky, was surprised.

“Why are you doing this all of a sudden?”

“It’s my fault.”

“what?”

Yeon Ho-jeong raised his head without saying a word and turned his gaze to look at Uijeong-gun’s lodgings.

Ugh!

At once, a golden glow flashed in his eyes.

After a while.

Paralarak!

The smooth new method is like a single melody running across the Tangeum.

The level achieved is truly amazing. Even though I could not go beyond the level of Buddhism, I seem to have attained enlightenment beyond the level of Buddhism. It was like looking at Yeonjipyeong.

Sararak.

Okcheong landed on the training ground and looked at Yeonhojeong with surprised eyes.

“Master Sobu?”

Yeon Ho-jeong said to Mo Yong-woo.

“I have a mission. Jade blue is a must. “Can I take you with me?”

It was an unexpected request. However, the tone was so quick and sharp that Mo Yong-woo flinched without even realizing it.

“Oh, of course.”

Yeon Ho-jeong said to Ok-cheong.

“Come see Seunghyeon Jinin. “I already told Jinin, but it would be better for you to get permission again and come.”

“yes? Ah…”

“Right now.”

Okcheong, who was confused, quickly nodded.

“All right. “When does your mission begin?”

“At the earliest, in four days. “Make sure you know that.”

“Oh, I understand.”

Okcheong, who was secretly watching Mo Yong-woo, used a divine method for a moment and disappeared.

“….”

An awkward air flowed between the two people.

The awkwardness was entirely due to Mo Yong-woo. Yeon Ho-jeong just looked at Mo Yong-woo with transparent eyes without the slightest awkwardness.

Mo Yong-woo opened his mouth.

“Yeonje. Is there anything else you can say to this brother Woo?”

“there is.”

“Then…”

“There are so many that it’s hard to give them all. And you probably have a lot to say to me, too.”

“I?”

Of course there are many. I want to drink and listen to stories for three days and nights about what they have seen and lived, the missions they have experienced, and how intense the battles have been.

However, Mo Yong-woo could tell without listening that that was not what Yeon Ho-jeong meant.

Yeon Ho-jeong said calmly.

“I was busy.”

“hmm?”

“There were many incidents all over the central plain. “I was also neglectful of my family.”

“ah.”

“I have come to the Murim Alliance with my work at the Mukryongbu roughly finished. It’s because of the election of a leader. “It is a matter for the Murim League to take care of, but I came here as an ambassador extraordinaire and plenipotentiary out of concern that the three religions’ actions or the petty desires of those full of greed might interfere in the process.”

“….”

“Fortunately, Ambassador Gong Gong has decided to erase his troubles and ascend to the throne at the request of me, the military, and many other service members. “It’s something to be happy about.”

Mo Yong-woo had no idea what Yeon Ho-jeong was talking about.

Yeon Ho-jeong continued. His monotonous voice somehow seemed to become darker.

“There were many new strong players. It seemed like there was a need to become a stronger Murim Alliance and a more united Murim Alliance, so I had a fight with my senior Geomje. In the process, I gained enlightenment that I could never have imagined and saved ten years of hard work.”

“Yeonje.”

“It was messy, but I got a lot out of it. A lot has changed. And I got a lot of things.”

Yeon Ho-jeong closed his eyes.

“After ascending to the Yellow Dragon, for some reason I thought it was awkward to go back to the Murim Alliance. It just seemed strange and confusing. But now I know.”

“…?”

“The problem was with me. “I forgot that although I am an unmanned person, I am also a person carrying a lot of things on my shoulders.”

“I don’t know what Yeonje is talking about.”

“Brother, get your enlightenment.”

Mo Yong-woo laughed bitterly.

“I’m sorry. “I was caught up in something for a moment and asked Yeonje…”

“But I will make a place for you.”

“…Yeonje?”

Yeon Ho-jeong grabbed Mo Yong-woo’s sleeve.

“Let’s go to Museongjeon.”
