Moon-Shadow Sword Emperor

Episode 362

“It is an honor to meet Dahyeop, the famous Dragon King throughout the central plains.”

The head of the Guangxi branch of the Murim League ran out in socks and greeted me.

I couldn’t help but laugh as I was looking at his nervous face.

As my status rose and my reputation grew, even people I didn’t know much about began to cry in front of me.

Just like the head of the Jiangsu branch did to me before.

“Thank you for your hospitality.”

“If you need anything, please let me know. “We will accommodate you as much as possible.”

“…….”

“I will also attach a few people to help.”

“You don’t have to go that far.”

Perhaps out of concern that he might be caught, the branch leader supported me and my group to an excessive extent.

In fact, the real purpose of my visit to Guangxi was not to inspect the area, but to find Meng Jing and persuade him, but the branch manager had no way of knowing that fact.

That must be why he shows such a humble attitude.

‘Well, just pretending to sort things out would be enough. The Guangxi branch is relatively clean compared to other branches.’

Not all branches of the Meng had festered and exploded internally like the Sacheon branches of the past.

Corruption can only be committed when there is free time.

All the Wulin forces in Guangxi were having a hectic day due to Shangsalmun (祥殺門), who was greedily trying to expand his territory.

The Guangxi branch could be said to be similar to the Qinghai branch of the past.

In an environment where casualties occurred frequently, it was difficult for anyone, whether an executive or a low-ranking member, to maintain their position for a long time.

There were many people who died after being caught up in an unexpected accident, and there were also many people who were promoted without knowing why their boss died or went through a resignation process.

Since vested interests cannot sit in one place for a long time, accounting ledgers are bound to become transparent.

‘Of course, even if that were the case, corruption would not be completely absent.’

There was no way for a martial arts group to exist that didn’t leave a single speck of dust after shaking it off.

If we were to dig deeper, there would be one or two things that would bother the Guangxi branch.

I don’t plan on going that far.

There was nothing good about being too strict.

It is a branch that is already shunned by the followers, but if it were to be squeezed to play with power, there could be a flood of people wishing to resign.

In the worst case, the Guangxi branch might lose its function.

“You can use this place.”

The branch leader guided me and my group to the VIP accommodation.

After unpacking my luggage at the hotel, I headed straight to the restaurant.

“receive.”

As I was sitting in the corner working my hands, Cheon Ga-ryeong came up to me and handed me a letter.

Her hair was wet, as if she had just come out of a bath.

“Circumstances were captured where Meng Kyung came outside Sangsalmun Gate. “Woo Ga-jin’s location has also been identified.”

I put down my chopsticks, opened the letter, and looked at its contents.

According to the information written in the information sheet, it seemed that Wu Jiajin had left Yunnan and arrived in Guangxi two days ago.

You might think it was an unfortunate coincidence, but if you look at the reality, it wasn’t necessarily so.

Wu Ga-jin’s destination is Honam, where the headquarters of the Maeng Dynasty is located.

To head from Yunnan to Honam, you had no choice but to travel through Guizhou or Guangxi.

“It just so happened. “I can go see you right away.”

“Right Now?”

“Because there is no reason to waste time. “It doesn’t seem that far away.”

“I heard your ability to act is really high.”

“That’s my strength.”

After finishing the meal.

We took a carriage and headed to the guest house where Wu Ga-jin was staying.

It took about three hours to reach the destination.

The inside of the guesthouse was quiet.

It seemed that the number of customers had dropped off due to a recent stabbing attack by martial arts people nearby.

Because it is located in the middle of a conflict zone, people who are not very picky will not want to stay there.

‘Well, Wu Ga-jin doesn’t have the ability to care about such things.’

With that in mind, I was climbing the stairs to this floor.

An evil shout pierced my ears.

“You barbarian! How dare you know who we are!”

“I don’t care who you are.”

“How dare you insult Sangsalmun and still get away with it!”

“This is already the fourth time I’ve met a group like you.”

“What are you saying!”

“These are idiots who use the name value of the group they belong to on their backs. Are all the warriors in Jungwon like this?”

“dare!”

Chachaechaechaeng!

After climbing all the stairs, the sight of warriors with weapons drawn appeared in my field of vision.

Just by looking at their clothes, you could tell that they were Sangsalmundo.

The number is five.

Each and every one of them was an expert who had reached at least the peak level.

All of them were giving off a sinister aura and seemed ready to pounce on the opponent at any moment.

‘I went crazy because I wanted to die.’

The problem was that the opponent was an expert who was on the verge of absolute perfection.

They said they didn’t know that a one-day puppy tiger was scary, and that’s exactly what happened.

“……”

Woo Ga-jin, a bald man who was looking down at the torn off door, clicked his tongue and clenched his fist.

It seemed like he had no intention of pulling out the curved sword on his back.

“Long time no see. Archduke.”

I stepped forward to mediate the situation.

It would have been fun to watch the two sides clash like this, but the owner of the inn was too pitiful to do that.

How heartbreaking it would be if customers even damaged property when business was not possible.

“What are you!”

One of the Sangsalmundo roared with heavy force.

He didn’t seem to like me for not being able to read the mood and interrupting.

On the other hand, Woo Ji-jin showed an expression of disbelief.

It seemed like he was embarrassed by the fact that he didn’t sense the other person’s presence until he got this close.

“If you want to make your name clear, it is natural to reveal your name first. “Isn’t that right?”

“You’re the one with the liver sticking out of your stomach! “If you don’t want to die, don’t come any closer and stay back!”

“Can you kill me?”

“what?”

Sigh!

Sangsalmundo, who was frowning and asking questions, let out a suppressed groan and collapsed in place.

It was because an invisible sharp fragment pierced his abdomen.

The men around looked shocked.

He didn’t even draw his sword or even pretend to attack.

However, the Jeongjeong master, who was still standing, suffered a stab wound to the abdomen and collapsed.

From an unfamiliar perspective, it would have been nothing short of a miracle.

“this guy!”

“What kind of evil trick are you using?”

In any case, when a scene that goes beyond common sense unfolds, it is the same for both political and political factions to talk about witchcraft.

I responded with a cold smile on my lips.

“Do I have to say this twice? “If you want to give your full name, I told you to reveal your name first.”

“……This is Ho Gyeong-hun of Sangsalmun. The remaining four are members of the group I lead. Now reveal your identity.”

“My name is Yeon-woon, the head of the Cheonangambu of the Murim League.”

“Yeonsoun? Dragon King?”

Everyone would have figured out that it wasn’t an impersonation because of the trick I showed a little while ago.

When Ho Gyeong-hoon, who was frozen in place like a stone statue, gestured with his hand to ask him to leave, he quickly took his group members and left the guest house as if running away.

‘I want you to know that I’m grateful.’

Fortunately, it ended in a moderate manner because I stepped forward.

If Wu Ga-jin had tried his hand, the situation would have spiraled out of control.

“It turns out the rumor was true that he had reached absolute heights.”

“I never thought I would see an archduke in the central plains like this.”

“Looking at you, it looks like you know that I have been disgraced. Did you come to inquire about my location?”

“That’s right.”

“I would have gone to see you myself, even if you didn’t have to pick me up.”

“I just happened to be on a business trip to Guangxi for some business. “I came to see you for business purposes, so don’t worry about it.”

“How is the youngest?”

“yes. “I am doing well and in good health.”

“Then you are lucky.”

“Would you like to have a drink? “I will buy it.”

“There is no reason to refuse. But before that, I would like you to fulfill your promise first.”

“What do you mean by promise?”

“You haven’t forgotten, right? “Didn’t we agree to spar when we meet again?”

I was afraid that someone would be a warrior for the south, so I sat down with my warrior spirit burning.

I nodded with a bitter smile.

‘I should do some ground work in advance.’

Even if that wasn’t the case, I was planning to invite him to become my subordinate.

At this point, it wouldn’t be a bad idea to keep the difference in power in mind.

* * *

A deserted field.

Wu Ga-jin and I stood facing each other with a distance of five feet.

Woo Ga-jin, pulling out the curved sword strapped to his back, shouted excitedly.

“If you think about me losing to you in a past martial arts competition, you must be very hurt.”

“I will give it back exactly as it was said. Come. “I will give up the player.”

I lifted the tip of my sword and provoked him.

Woo Ga-jin, who rushed forward as if he would not hesitate, raised his curved sword with great enthusiasm and slashed.

Pow!

A heavy pounding sound rang out.

I couldn’t believe it was the sound of metal cutting through the air.

I dodged the attack by taking a half step back and lightly snapped my fingers.

Absolutely! Quick!

A sphere of brain energy formed in the air before Wu Jiajin’s eyes.

He was so startled that he kicked the ground in self-defense.

Kwaaaaang!

A cloud of dust rose up along with the explosion.

Woo Ga-jin, covered in dust, had a hard expression on his face.

As if he had heightened his vigilance, tendons appeared on the back of his hand as he clutched the curved sword.

Kwakwakwak! Quack!

The spheres of brain energy that were created one after another pressed him.

Although he may have been embarrassed, Woo Ga-jin calmly narrowed the distance between him and counterattacked.

Whoops!

The sword and the curved sword collided, creating an unpleasant collision sound.

A heavy shock traveled down my wrist and up to my shoulder.

‘indeed.’

Wu Ga-jin’s tactics were not much different from before.

He charged forward like a bull with powerful martial arts skills.

Every time he swung the curved sword, a fierce wind blew around him, and every time he hit the ground, the whole area shook.

Even though the gap was wider than before, we couldn’t let our guard down.

When fighting an opponent who is as powerful as this, one must not let go of tension until the end.

‘It’s become harsher than before.’

It looks like Woo Ga-jin wasn’t just playing around all this time either.

As I grew, he also grew.

Maybe I had already stepped into absolute perfection.

‘I understand why Dokgokju attacked Ugajin even at the risk of losing the balance.’

Perhaps Dokgokju judged that if the Grand Duke grew further here, he would become a threat to himself.

That may be the reason why they tried to get rid of Huhwan by killing him who left Namman and headed to the central plains.

‘Good.’

I was jealous.

It was clear that it would be of great help if he could have such a talented person under his command.

The fourth herbivorous month (斬月).

I lowered my sword in a straight line at Woo Ga-jin, who was closing the distance.

Quang!

The moment the sword strike, whose power was amplified due to the use of special internal power, made contact with the curved blade, an enormous shock wave spread throughout the area.

‘I’ll take a good picture and press it.’
