Moon-Shadow Sword Emperor

Episode 46:

Dokgo Woojin’s residence located near Cheongseongsan Mountain.

“bout!”

A powerful sound of energy penetrated my ears.

Dok Go-seong was practicing boxing while sweating beadingly.

Whenever the posture was wrong or the movements were slow, Dokgo Woo-jin, who was watching with harsh eyes, shouted.

‘It seems quite plausible.’

As I sat on the floor and watched Dok Go-seong practice, I was inwardly amazed.

The expression ‘Ilchwiwoljang (日就月將)’ is probably used in times like these.

Dok-go-seong had become a completely different person from the boy who had been struggling two years ago because he could not keep up with basic training.

‘We’ll have to watch a little more to find out, but it’s clear that he’s not an ordinary talent.’

After learning Honghwa Shingong and overcoming his innate constitution, Dok Go-seong’s hidden talent began to shine in earnest.

If you teach one, you will realize two, and if you teach three, you will realize ten.

Although it is still immature, I was excited to see how far it could grow in the future.

Especially since he is a character who was not highlighted in his previous life.

‘As for telling me the recipe for the Demon God Dan… I decided to put it on hold for now.’

The Honghwa Shingong (紅火神功) that Dok Go-seong learned was a mind technique that was extremely efficient in accumulating internal energy.

It was different from the Three Hands Mind Act or the White Lightning God Gong.

Even if one did not necessarily borrow the power of the elixir, one would be able to reach a sufficiently high level if one continued to practice.

Above all, long-acting elixirs had to be taken at the appropriate time to achieve maximum effectiveness.

Even if I were to tell you the recipe for making the Demon Goddess, it would have been better if it had been done later.

How long had he been watching the father and son like that?

Seo Moon-hye stuck her head out the window to announce that the meal was ready.

I immediately got up from my seat.

I was already looking forward to what kind of dinner Seo Moon-hye, who was excited to welcome guests, would prepare.

* * *

After a late dinner, I informed Dokgo Woojin that I was going on a trip.

Unlike Dokgo Woo-jin, who silently listened to the story, Seo Moon-hye looked sad, as if she was about to shed tears at any moment.

“I knew you were planning to go strong. “He’s been showing signs of that for some time now.”

“…….”

“You’re going to Zhejiang?”

“yes.”

“Recently, I heard that Japanese pirates are running rampant in the waters near Zhejiang.”

“I have no intention of joining the subjugation of Japanese pirates.”

“Even if you don’t mean to, there’s a chance you’ll get caught up in a fight.”

“Even if an emergency occurs, I have the ability to protect myself.”

“Well, if you are the one you are now, you can easily join the ranks of the world’s top hundred masters…”

Dokgo Woojin nodded once and asked while tapping his index finger on the table.

“What do you plan to do, military officer?”

“I have no intention of being tied down with graduation. “There’s nothing more to learn there.”

“okay. “I will solve the issue of leaving the hospital.”

“thank you.”

“What is the departure date?”

“I plan to leave in ten days at the latest.”

“There is one thing I would like to ask of you, will you listen to it?”

“I must grant whatever request Master makes.”

“I had a meeting with the head of the party not long ago, and he said this. “My daughter is old enough to go to Gangho, but I feel uneasy about letting her go alone.”

“……?”

My anxiety rose.

Why does the story of Danggaju come out here?

“But he said he was having a hard time because it was obvious that he would not like it if we gave him the family’s military officers.”

“…Are you really saying that you wish we could move together with Sojeo?”

“If you don’t like it, you can refuse. “This is just a favor.”

A laugh escaped me.

What Dang Seo-yeon said during the day passed through my mind.

[I’ll see you again soon.]

I thought it was just a courtesy, but I never thought it had a hidden meaning.

I sighed softly and nodded.

“no. “If Sojeo joins us, there is nothing wrong with me.”

“Thank you for saying that.”

Unexpectedly, the number of people in the group increased by one.

To be honest, I wasn’t that happy about it.

It would be a lie if I said I didn’t feel uncomfortable due to unexpected variables.

Nevertheless, there were three main reasons why I did not refuse to join Tang Seoyeon.

Firstly, because it is a request from my teacher.

Second, I was concerned that she was a person I had never seen in my previous life.

Thirdly, because she is a person with extensive knowledge in mechanical engineering.

After taking care of business at Hwayang Sangdan, I planned to head straight to Bidong, where the legacy of Cheongija (千技者) rests.

I remember hearing that Reporter Cheon was a person who was skilled not only in the method of formation but also in the machinery.

If you move with a direct blood relative of your party, you might be able to get help.

“I won’t say much since you are old enough to take care of yourself. “I hope you can go to the river and achieve everything you want.”

Dokgo Woojin said with a smile that he rarely shows on his lips.

I got up and bowed to him.

“Thank you so much. “Master.”

Haeulpyoguk (遐鳦鏢局).

It was the largest of all the kingdoms nesting in Seongdo.

Five days ago, I paid a large sum of money here and entrusted an escort request.

[Do you want to join the journey to Hubei?]

[Yes. There are three people. I would also like you to prepare a large carriage.]

The receptionist, who was looking at me with a suspicious expression, changed her expression completely as soon as I handed her the gold coin.

I was able to once again realize the power of money.

Unfortunately, I could not find a ticket to Zhejiang.

Once I got to Hubei, I thought I would have to either arrange another ticket or travel on foot.

I got into the carriage prepared by the bureau, bowed lightly to Dang Seo-yeon, who was sitting across from me, and said,

“Please take care of me in the future.”

“Please take care of me.”

The journey began and the carriage began to roll with a clattering noise.

I looked out the window and muttered.

‘Four years.’

It was already four years ago that I went to the Hwangryongmugwan and begged Dokgo Woojin to accept me as his disciple.

I have already turned nineteen.

A lot has changed in the meantime.

In particular, the martial arts achievements were dazzling.

The state of transcendence, a body with enhanced internal strength for 50 years, and even imperviousness to poison from heaven.

We achieved results that exceeded expectations.

‘It won’t be long before the magicians begin their activities in earnest.’

Recently, we have often heard stories about demons appearing in a certain area or about the damage suffered by a sect in that area.

In particular, it seemed like fights were taking place every day in Cheonghae, adjacent to Xinjiang, where the headquarters of the Demonic Cult was located.

‘Well, it is a disputed area where fights occur frequently even in peacetime.’

Compared to other regions, Sacheon was relatively peaceful.

There was a case where the ghost army led by the demon demon Eumsal was subdued by the Qingcheng faction, but basically, Sacheon was not a good area for demon cultists to operate.

The Cheongseong faction (靑城派), the Ami faction (峨嵋派), and the Sichuan Tang family (四川唐家).

Because there are as many as three major factions of the martial arts faction in place.

‘No matter what happens in today’s martial arts world, it’s not strange.’

I gained strength because I knew that the difficult times ahead would unfold.

So that we can respond no matter what happens.

Although I have not yet completely regained the level of my previous life, I am confident that I have the skills to protect myself.

‘There is a lot of work ahead.’

I spent some time checking my future schedule in my head.

I was awakened from my thoughts by the sound of a conversation between two women sitting across from me.

“I am Cheon Ga-ryeong. “Please feel free to call me Ga-ryeong.”

“okay.”

“If it’s okay, can I call you sister?”

“sister?”

“If you’re uncomfortable being called ‘sister’…”

“No, it’s okay. I’ll take good care of you in the future. For example, my younger brother.”

“yes. Seoyeon unnie.”

Cheon Ji-ryeong showed off his unique friendliness and quickly became close to Tang Seo-yeon.

As I was already looking at the two people acting like sisters, saying they were older and younger, my head started to hurt for some reason.

‘Anyway, I didn’t know that the item I wanted was a hairpin. ‘You have a surprisingly girlish side.’

Unlike usual, Cheon Ga-ryeong looked very stylish.

She wore a light blue suit that fit her body perfectly and had light makeup on her face.

She wore a hairpin in her neatly tied up hair, and the pure white nape of her neck that was revealed refreshingly caught the eye.

It reminded me of the first time I saw her face at Cheonhwaru.

“Oh, sister. “Would you like to take a look at this?”

Cheon Ga-ryeong seemed to place her hand on the back of her head, then pulled out the hairpin that held her hair in place and placed it on her palm.

Her neatly organized hair was loose and flowing down her shoulders.

She asked, handing the hairpin to Seoyeon Tang.

“I found this item while walking around the market recently. Isn’t it pretty?”

The silky, shiny hairpin looked luxurious even to me, who doesn’t know much about women’s accessories.

However, Tang Seo-yeon’s impressions were a little different from what I thought.

“I don’t think it’s an ordinary hairpin?”

“Perhaps because you are from the party family, you recognize me at a glance.”

Seoyeon Tang grabbed both ends of the hairpin and pulled it.

Then one side of the hairpin came off, revealing the hidden sharp awl.

“I can’t believe there’s a memorization hidden inside such a thin hairpin.”

“They said it’s made of ink iron so it won’t break easily.”

Tang Seo-yeon looked around at the hairpin as if she were fascinated.

As I watched the scene, I burst into laughter.

What is your girlish side?

* * *

The journey went smoothly.

Since I had money, I could enjoy luxurious travel.

It was the same in the past when I joined the voyage from Guangxi to Sacheon, but I didn’t have to feel any inconvenience because the envoys and envoys took care of all the troublesome things.

However, when they crossed the border of Sichuan and entered Shaanxi, a problem arose.

While preparing to stay overnight on the side of an unknown mountain.

A group of bandits appeared as if they were surrounding the parade.

The group tried to avoid the situation by paying a reasonable toll without fighting them.

The problem was that some of the bandits spotted Tang Seo-yeon outside the carriage and started making fun of her.

“That bitch looks really scary.”

“You look terrible. “Did you at least roll around in a field of fire?”

“Hahaha! “I wonder if I can get married like that!”

It was obvious, but Tang Seo-yeon did not tolerate it.

If you remain silent even after being insulted, you are not a member of the Tang family.

“Keuuk!”

As she lightly waved her arm, one of the bandits grabbed the back of the neck and tore down the new figure.

His complexion turned blue, as if he had been hit by a poisonous spell.

“You bitch!”

“What are you doing!”

The enraged bandits drew their weapons and attacked the parade.

I sighed softly and placed my hand on the sword.

“You’re bothering me.”
