Episode 368:
A sharp sword blade cut through the air before ng Jing’s eyes.
As if he had been waiting for this mont, ng Kyung imdiately narrowed the gap and ca in.
‘We waited until the last minute to attack.’
Contrary to appearance, he had the temperant of a fighter.
He was not reluctant to take risks in order to turn around an unfavorable situation.
The unfortunate truth was that just as ng-gyeong guided my movents, I also read his intentions.
The sixteenth herbivorous moon (明月).
puck!
Sothing invisible tapped ng Jing on the shoulder.
It was a hit using a sword attack that was secretly implented as a bait.
The power of the attack itself was not that high.
A belated self-defense strategy was enough to relieve the shock.
Wow!
However, the cost of being confused and distracted by an unexpected blow was high.
The left fist crashed into ng Kyung’s side with a heavy noise.
ng Kyung’s face frowned.
Craddangtang!
ng-gyeong, who rolled on the floor and kicked up dust, raised his upper body with a grunt.
Since a direct hit was allowed in a situation where the distance was forcibly narrowed, there was no need to say how big the blow would be.
“Didn’t Son Dae-jung say he would do it?”
“We are looking forward to it.”
“For all that, it hurts like death.”
“If I had put my mind to it, I could have shaken the blood vessels and organs using the internal heavy hand thod.”
“You say scary things so casually.”
“Still, it seems like he didn’t neglect his martial arts training while hiding in Sangsal Gate. “It doesn’t feel like you can’t show off your skills to the fullest.”
“is it? “I thought it would be inevitable to be evaluated as having poor split-second judgnt since it has been a long ti since I played in a real ga.”
“Cheonan Gambu is ho to many outstanding talents. There will be many people who can help you regain your senses.”
“…….”
“Let’s continue. Please co.”
“You want to do more here? “Isn’t it virtually the sa as a conclusion?”
“You know, don’t you? That this is not a sparring to determine victory or defeat. “There is still a long way to go.”
ng Kyung stood up, rubbing his side and looked to the right.
I pulled out the sheath of the sword that was half buried in the ground using the technique of emptiness and handed it to him.
“Your skills are also good.”
ng Jing’s posture lowered.
It was like watching an animal that found its prey crouch down before running out of the bush.
bang!
He stepped on the ground and launched his new weapon like an arrow, digging into my side in the blink of an eye.
Movent and attack done in one breath.
I had a feeling that a low-ranking warrior would be beaten and stretched out without even having ti to respond.
Teuong!
The brain energy mbrane blocked the scabbard.
As if he had expected it, ng Kyung does not stop at just one attack and continues to attack.
I dodged or dodged most attacks and maintained a certain distance.
“Anyway, didn’t you hear sothing from earlier?”
“Why are there people in the training hall at this hour?”
“They are probably mbers of the Cheonan Inspectorate who ca to inspect the branch.”
“The montum flowing out is not normal. “Because what on earth is going on inside?”
While continuing to dance.
A mumbling noise began to be heard from beyond the fence surrounding the training ground.
As the dance got longer, the Guangxi branch leaders who were passing by nearby seed to be interested and flocking in one by one.
If left alone, it seed like it would secretly peek over the wall.
‘That won’t work.’
The twenty-second herbivorous first month (霜月).
Grains of energy scattered like frost, putting a brake on ng Jing’s movents.
I took advantage of that opportunity to let go of the sword and clash my hands together.
Wow!
Masoeumgong (手音功).
The vision of the Akga passed down from the Ak Yeo-ryeong.
Heavy air waves spread out in concentric circles.
The dancers who were clinging to the wall outside the training hall were startled and ran away.
It seed like he knew that the heterogeneous waves passing through his body were so kind of warning.
“Sigh!”
ng-gyeong, who is quick-witted, imdiately realized what was going on.
Also, now is your only chance to win.
Before I could retrieve my sword, ng Gyeong rushed at like a bull and struck with a club.
I clicked my tongue and took a step back, biting the new model.
‘I’m sorry.’
I was also confident in my opponent’s air power.
He parried away all the attacks with his fists and unexpectedly unfolded his golden sword and snatched the sword sheath.
ng Gyeong, who must have judged that there was no hope in a physical confrontation, let go of the sword sheath without hesitation and stretched out his wrapped hands forward.
Pow!
At first glance, it seems like it’s just a noisy movent and doesn’t have much aning.
However, the force that hit the body as if pushing was unusual.
As I was pushed away, leaving long footprints on the ground, my eyes lit up and I muttered in my heart.
‘Is it Kangryong 18jang (降龍十八掌), one of the secret martial arts of openness?’
There are many martial arts in the world that can blow a long wind, but there are only a few that have this much power.
I couldn’t have been more interested in experiencing martial arts that I had only heard about in stories.
After that, Maenggyeong and I walked around the training ground exchanging hundreds of sums.
“Big.”
In the end, ng Kyung, who had run out of strength and stamina, collapsed and fell to his knees on the ground.
He was breathing heavily, looked up at with a tired expression, and said.
“Aren’t you tired?”
“It’s worth it.”
“Rather than imdiately overpowering a relatively low-skilled opponent, adjusting your skills to match the target’s level would be more difficult. “Because of how much internal power it has.”
ng Gyeong, who was shaking his head, lay down on the ground and looked up at the sky.
I looked down at him motionless, as if he didn’t even have the strength to lift a finger. I retrieved Geogeol’s sword sheath, put it on my waist, and said,
“At this level, I don’t think it’s enough to be the leader of the Wonryong Small Association. “I’m glad to have good news for the open side.”
“Could it be that this sparring was also a fulfillnt of a request from the teacher?”
“yes. However, it does not an that the statent that we wanted to understand the level of prospective mbers was a lie.”
“Why would you ask to check if my skills are rusty and dispose of them if I find they are not good?”
“It’s sowhat similar. “Although you didn’t say anything extre like disposal.”
“That’s right.”
“Like I said, we’ll be leaving early tomorrow morning. “Go back and get plenty of rest.”
“I understand.”
ng Kyung nodded and quietly closed his eyes.
Since he was likely to fall asleep if left alone, he loudly called for soone and ordered them to take him away.
‘It’s going to be a bit of a headache to control it.’
I narrowed my eyes as I stared at the back of the blind man leaving the training hall, supported by the branch’s strong man.
This was my first ti seeing it in person, but I could still tell.
Basically, he was not the type to work quietly under soone else.
He was too free spirited to expect loyalty.
‘If he had been a person bound by a sense of belonging in the first place, he would not have done such a big thing as giving up his status as a fire chief and turning his back on openness.’
It wasn’t like Bangcheoksam or Cheonwoo Dojang that felt good to .
Because of his position, he has no choice but to pretend to follow .
It didn’t seem like it would be easy to manipulate it the way I wanted.
‘Well, it’s not realistically possible to win the hearts of all subordinates.’
It was different from the days when I was the Sacheon branch president.
It was no longer the body that led a small group.
As I beca the head of a large group, there was a need to change my mindset.
‘Okay then. Now, how should we use that person?’
* * *
After completing my schedule in Guangxi, I returned to ng’s headquarters.
The way back was extrely uncomfortable.
The road wasn’t particularly rough, nor did we encounter a group of thieves.
The awkward air current that flowed between Cheon Ga-ryeong and Tang Seo-yeon caused the fellow passengers to lose their breath.
It was so bad that Dojang Cheon-woo refused to take the shift, saying he would continue to be the coachman.
‘I’m sure sothing happened.’
I couldn’t ask for details.
Sohow, I had a strong feeling that I shouldn’t have done that.
I passed through Maeng’s main gate feeling ntally tired.
When I arrived at the temporary base of Cheonan Gambu, two new mbers greeted one by one.
Mi-ryong (美龍) and Kwon-ryong (拳龍).
Finally, Baek Ri-seon, a disciple of Ak Yeo-ryeong, and Hwang Bo-jin, a direct blood relative of the Hwang Bo-sae family, went through formal procedures and entered the priesthood.
“welco. “Both of you.”
Hwang Bo-jin glanced at Baek Li-seon with wary eyes.
He seed to be concerned about a military officer of the sa age who joined the service at the sa ti as him.
He had discernnt, so he should have known.
That the man standing next to him is a man with skills that are not inferior to him.
“From now on, you two will be assigned to the execution team and work.”
“There is one thing I would like to ask of you.”
When the boat speed was decided, Hwang Bo-jin raised his right hand and said, as if he had been waiting.
I nodded and made eye contact with him.
“Please speak.”
“If possible, I would like you to assign to the investigation team rather than the execution team.”
“To the investigation team? May I ask why you are making such a request?”
“I received instructions from the head of the family, and I would like to gain as many different experiences as possible.”
Hwang Bo-jin must have expected this person to ask a question and gives an answer.
I tilted my head at the incomprehensible answer, but soon realized his intention and burst into laughter.
‘The investigation team was the unit to which Cheon Ga-ryeong was assigned.’
Previously, when he encountered Cheon Ga-ryeong at Hwang Bo-sae’s patronage, he was entranced by her beauty and was unable to co to his senses.
In a way, it was natural that he wanted to be assigned to the investigation team rather than the execution team.
“It’s impossible.”
“…Can I ask the reason?”
“There is a saying, ‘Right place, right place. “The Kwonryong Small Association is more suited to the execution team than the investigation team.”
“I am confident that I will be able to do my part even when I go to the investigation team. Please give a chance.”
“Then let ask you directly. Are you skilled in stealth? What is your experience organizing the collected information? “Do you have any experience working for a specific martial arts organization?”
“…….”
“This is the minimum condition to be assigned to the investigation team.”
Hwang Bo-jin’s mouth was tightly shut.
I feel sorry for him, but it was impossible to put soone who did not et the qualifications into the investigation team.
“Of course, even if you don’t et the conditions, there is no way to be assigned to the investigation team. If you want to beco a junior mber and learn step by step from the basics, we may grant your request. Are you sure you don’t mind?”
Although I asked my doctor, the answer I got was actually obvious.
There was no way that a person with such high self-esteem would be willing to endure such humiliation.
Even though other people didn’t know, I knew because I had mories of my past life.
Kwon Ryong’s obsession with fa.
It was human psychology to want to be treated comnsurate with one’s skills.
What’s more, isn’t the young man in front of a person who created and spread a feat that didn’t exist?
“Please assign to the execution team.”
“I’m sorry I couldn’t fulfill your request.”
“no. “It would be a natural decision as the leader of a force.”
“I think I should go to the leader soon and give him a report. “Please go back now.”
“yes.”
Hwang Bo-jin leaves the office with a disappointed expression.
Baek Li-seon, who bowed lightly, followed behind him.
I buried myself in the back of the chair and muttered.
‘What remains now is how to accept Woo Ga-jin and Maeng Gyeong as mbers of the Cheonan Gambu.’
In order to handle the issue of the two people’s joining and joining, it was necessary to first obtain permission from Juhwabaek.
Obtaining permission would not be easy.
A warrior who has reached the level of absolute perfection and an expert who has reached the level of perfection.
If the two people join, Cheonan Gambu’s power becos excessively strong.
There will certainly be those who voice opposition.
‘I don’t know. It’ll work out sohow.’
