Chapter 348
Episode 348: Enjoying the Banquet (2)
Yu Jin-san was drinking tea alone with someone who came to Gwisalmun.
A martial arts expert wearing a dark red suit and wearing a bamboo hat. Her identity was none other than Sado Ryeonju.
Apostolic Lord Yeongyoung could not hide his laughter as if the situation here was amusing.
“The popularity of the Yin Kai Daehyup is skyrocketing. “It’s the first time I’ve seen our Apostolic Association members be so enthusiastic about it.”
“Unlike me, Eum-gae likes hanging out with people. But why don’t you go to the banquet hall?”
“I plan to keep my coming here a secret. “I feel like I’m going to end up in a cold place.”
He was, in name, the head of the Safa League.
However, even her presence will be diminished in the face of Eumgae’s popularity.
It seemed like he knew it well.
Yu Jin-san, who was clutching the tea cup, could not hold back his laughter.
“A high-ranking person is good at telling jokes.”
“Ho Ho. In fact, I’m only half serious. And thank you for what happened the other day.”
“Which part do you mean?”
Yeongyeong said, putting down his teacup.
“I went to Haereung Island after our last meeting. “My adoptive parents asked me to convey their greetings to the Yin-Yang Twin Monsters.”
Haereungdo was a southern island village that was devastated by a warrior dragon.
And the adoptive daughter of Il-gwang and Yeon Cho-hee, the leaders of the resistance army, was Sadoryeonju.
Eugene San also suddenly became curious about their well-being.
“Is everyone doing well?”
“yes. Thanks to the funds sent by the Eumgoe Grand Association, the reconstruction of the village is progressing well. “All the residents seemed happy.”
After killing the warrior dragon, Yu Seol donated all of the bounty to Haereung Island through the government military.
Yu Jin-san’s heart was happy to hear that they were getting along well.
The resistance fighters and residents who remained in his memory were all warm-hearted and good people.
“It’s such good news that it’s been a long time coming. “Considering the suffering they have suffered so far, they deserve to live happily.”
“I agree. By the way, Daehyeop asked to see me.”
Jinsan Yu nodded once and said.
“exactly. “I just asked you to arrange a meeting, but I didn’t know that Ryeonju would come here in person.”
“I happened to be nearby. “We were investigating a recent disaster that occurred at Shaolin Temple.”
As expected, the Apostolic Association was also closely watching the recent events that occurred in Moorim.
It was no wonder she showed interest.
“Then I guess it went well. Because I wanted to discuss that too. “How much do you know?”
“I don’t know much about it. I hope the Daehyup can explain what happened. “Starting with the independent faction.”
Jinsan Yu quenched his thirst with a teacup and explained the events that had happened so far.
Suddenly, I formed a friendship with a non-partisan group and received their support.
And this is the first time I learned about the existence of Daramin Buddhism.
The terrifying and bizarre martial arts they used.
At the same time, he was fully informed of the situation that occurred at Shaolin Temple. Because there was no reason to hide it.
Joy and worry coexisted on the face of the Apostolic Leader who heard the whole story.
“It’s really good news that the Murim Alliance, the archenemy of our Apostolic Alliance, is shaking.”
“It’s still just the beginning. “If Maeng Jubi falls in the upcoming confrontation, the Murim Alliance will begin to split.”
It was a set procedure. The Murim Alliance, which had lost its cohesion, would rapidly weaken and it would soon lead to division.
Even the Four Masters seemed to be secretly anticipating that.
“I will feel very relieved if the ugly Murim Alliance is disbanded.”
But it was something I couldn’t just be happy about.
When the power of the political faction was at its weakest, fearsome enemies would come from all over the world.
“But what happens after that doesn’t matter.”
It seemed that the Apostolic Leader also sympathized with that issue.
Because the composure slowly evaporated from her smiling face.
“I know very well. “Just looking at the power of Cheonchuk that has been revealed so far, we won’t be able to stop it on our own.”
“Of course it will. So, I would like to hear your thoughts on this matter.”
Youngyoung was silent for a moment. Maybe it’s to organize your thoughts.
Jinsan Yu calmly waited for her answer.
And after some time.
Her mouth opened and a soft voice came out.
“Before that, I have something to tell you first. “I met Geomhu on Haereung Island not long ago.”
Geomhu (劍后) Soso.
He was the greatest martial arts master of the previous era who left for Heaven and had a deep connection with the Yin-Yang twin monsters.
She was also famous for being friends with the apostle training master Yeongyeong since childhood.
“Are you saying he appeared on Haereung Island?”
“yes. It is said that the warrior dragon that occupied the place recognized that it was from Heaven and came to capture it. “It’s already too late.”
It seemed that Geomhu was still struggling to weaken the power of Cheonchuk.
“We knocked him down first, so he made a fuss. However, I couldn’t leave his share behind.”
At Yu Jin-san’s joke, Master Apostle smiled again.
“It’s not that there was no income. “We talked a lot with each other.”
“hmm. “I wonder what it’s about.”
Geomhu was the person who knew the most about them.
Eugene San also had to hear what news she brought.
Youngyoung, who was about to speak, hesitated for a moment and looked toward the door. This is because the rumor that was in the banquet hall has just arrived.
“Sister Soso? “I heard your sister came?”
Yu Jin-san motioned for his granddaughter to sit down.
“I came at the right time. “I’m just about to talk, so please sit down.”
Now it was time for Yoo Seol to find out about Kang Ho’s situation. Just listening from the side will be helpful.
Yeongyeong gave Yuseol a quick greeting and continued his answer.
“First of all, there was information about the Daramin Buddhists who attacked the Shaolin Temple.”
“Even so, I was curious. “Go ahead and tell me.”
“They are a cult that is classified as a heresy even by the heavenly axis. “It is a force hiding in the shadows and rebelling against Arhat.”
To some extent, this was expected. This is because their clothing and behavior were quite unique.
“It’s surprising that even such experts are hiding in Heaven.”
“Actually, I don’t believe everything they say. In any case, it seems he was trying to find an unrivaled martial artist called the Unwritten Lion God and aim for the position of Arhat.”
“hmm. I guess it was something like that…” They
say the enemy of my enemy can become my friend, but I had no intention of working with such crazy people.
After a moment of silence, Yoo Seol noticed and quietly joined the conversation.
“Didn’t Soso tell you about me?”
“It can’t be. “The Great Council of Yin Kai was very happy to hear the news that the Heavenly Axis masters had been punished.”
It is probably referring to the capture of the warrior dragon of Haereung Island and Yeomhwi, the leader of the Baekhwahyeolgyo cult.
According to the investigation so far, they were members of the Heavenly Axis’s Shaoreumsa and were two of the Four Heavenly Kings of Blood.
Yu Seol said, extending his index finger forward.
“They say there’s still one more person hiding. “The guy called the king of dating.”
“you’re right. Geomhu said he was hiding in the Murim League.”
Yu Jin-san asked with a puzzled expression.
“Did you just say you were a Murimmaeng?”
Master Sado nodded and picked up the teacup again.
“It was said that a secret letter containing internal information about the Murim Alliance was being delivered to Soroeumsa in Cheonchuk. Geomhu intercepted it in the middle.”
“Are you saying that the secret letter contained information about King Sagye?”
“That’s right. Judging from the contents of the secret letter, it is said that communal faction is suspected. “I just don’t know who it is and I have no clue.”
The Dongong Sect is a member of the Gudaemun Sect and is located in Gansu Province.
Because it was relatively close to the heavenly axis, it had some merit.
“There’s nothing much to do for the time being, so let’s sneak in and take a look.”
“yes. And Geomhu asked me something…”
She trailed off as if she was hesitating about something.
“…?”
Zhao Son stared at her and waited for an answer.
And after a while. She laughed and said jokingly.
“He said he would go to the West Station or travel with me soon.”
“A trip to the West Station? “It will be fun…”
Yoo Seol was envious when she heard that she was going to have fun, but Yu Jin San’s reaction was clearly different.
He immediately understood what the Apostolic Leader’s words meant.
What kind of travel is it during this time?
She will leave the Jungwon Martial Forest with Geomhu and continue her activities in Cheonchuk.
It was only a matter of turning around and urging the governor to resign.
“Then what will happen to the Safa League?”
At that moment, the corners of Sadoryunju’s mouth drew a faint smile.
“Soso said that the elders would know well.”
There seemed to be something that only the three of them knew about.
Yoo Seol, who was watching, grabbed the grandfather’s arm and urged him.
“What? “Tell me about it too~”
Yu Jin-san took a deep breath and spoke softly.
“It means that Lord Ryeon is also retiring along with Geomhu.”
“Yes? why?”
She answered the question instead.
“A new era begins only when the old era comes to an end. “The future of power will be an era of great evil and evil.”
“It’s me? “My era?”
At that moment, Master Sado spoke softly with a more serious expression than ever before.
“As soon as the duel with the lord is over, build a new alliance that encompasses the government. “We are unifying the martial arts world in the name of the Eumkai Daehyup.”
Eugene San was not surprised at all.
Because it was something we had planned from the beginning.
‘The time has finally come. ‘How long have I waited for this moment?’
When what I had imagined became reality, my heart pounded so hard that I couldn’t stand it.
Until I saw my granddaughter’s reaction.
“Why me? “It’s annoying…”
Yu Jin-san, who was next to him, asked angrily.
“What do you mean, it’s annoying!? “I’m going to become the world’s best, but I don’t think I’ll like it.”
“Phew…”
Seeing his granddaughter sighing, Jinsan Yu emptied the teacup in one go as if he was frustrated.
In any case, you will have to persuade Yoo Seol separately later. There was no need to rush.
First, I had to organize the conversation with the Apostolic Leader.
“I understand what you mean, Lord Ryeon. But did you really agree to Geomhu’s suggestion?”
This was definitely something that needed to be addressed.
If she leaves, the Apostolic Alliance will also be shaken just like the Murim Alliance.
The goal was for the new alliance to absorb them all and regenerate them into a single force.
“The only reason I turned my back on Amifah and came to this place was because of the Murim Lord. “If I could see her die, I would no longer have any regrets about Kang-ho.”
“Wouldn’t you resent it if we took revenge on you?”
“There is no way anyway. Because he has risen to a level too high for me to deal with. “I will be satisfied just watching from the side.”
“Thank you so much for thinking that way….”
Now, what I had to say to the Apostle Commander had been roughly summarized.
The conversation is about to end.
Suddenly, she spoke hurriedly with an expression that seemed to indicate that she had remembered something she had forgotten.
“Oh. “I recently heard some strange information from Heukyabang.”
Heukya Bang, which had a deep connection with the Yin-Yang Twin Monsters from the past, had become the best intelligence organization in Sapa.
Although they were not affiliated with the Apostolic Alliance, they had a close cooperation relationship by exchanging information with each other.
“Go ahead and tell me.”
“I heard that the Murim Alliance’s Jamryonggo was robbed by an assailant a few months ago.”
Jamryonggo was a place where the Murim Alliance stored very valuable items.
Who robbed what was supposed to be the most heavily guarded place in the Murim Alliance?
No one could guess.
“hmm. Who on earth could rob that place if not the Apostolic Alliance?”
“I doubt that too. “There was only one item that disappeared from Jamryonggo… It was the secret weapon of the Red Blood God.”
“Red blood magic!? “Are you talking about the Red Blood Divine Power that the Murim League acquired in the past when they conquered the Demonic Cult?”
How could you not know?
It was a fearsome magic attack that was banned even by the Demonic Cult.
In the era when the Red Blood Gods appeared, bloodshed was bound to blow in the martial arts world.
“I was wondering if it might have been an attack by large groups, but I guess I was wrong.”
“We are not interested in witchcraft or anything like that. “I can’t learn it because I have built up my skills through the spiritual methods of the political faction.”
“In fact, since the Red Blood Divine Gong has a non-attribute nature, it can be learned using the inner power of the True Sect. Anyway, I have doubts.”
He single-handedly invaded the territory of the Murim League, a group of Yongdam warriors, and attacked Jamryonggo, which had the tightest security. And that too without even being discovered.
It was something that even a decent expert would not dare to do.
“I’m curious, but it will be revealed someday. “Thank you, it helped me a lot.”
“you’re welcome. “Then I’ll see you again in Muyang County later.”
The military camp installed in Muyang County was also the place where world martial arts competitions were held in the past.
Yu Seol smiled brightly at her.
“Be sure to come see it. I’ll show you something fun.”
Yujinsan and Sadoryunju started laughing at the same time.
It seemed like he was happy just imagining it.
