Episode 431: Our Only Hope (3)
The executives gathered together in Jeongcheong, the main conference room of Cheonyuhoe.
The purpose was to summarize the current situation and discuss future directions.
First of all, everyone was very happy with the performance of the yin-yang twins in Dunhuang.
“Is it really just the two of you who brought back all those scary bastards?”
“And you even rescued all the prisoners? “It is a truly refreshing achievent.”
“haha! Now they must have keenly felt the fear of the Yin-Yang twin monsters.”
Praise poured in from the audience.
At that ti, Yoo Seol, who was sitting at the head table, looked around the room with a happy expression.
Several seats were empty, including the veteran leaders of the Shaman faction and the Baeksang protector of the Black Myo faction. They should be escorting the emperor out of Gaebong by now.
And two of the other elders who were supposed to be present were nowhere to be seen.
“The next agenda will start after everyone arrives.”
Regardless of the reason, Cheonyuhoeju’s decision is absolute.
The elders began looking around to find the cause.
“Aren’t the heads of the Namgung Cheolhu and Munjong clans the only ones who ca?”
“It’s not like they were always late…”
The eting was stopped for a mont and there was silence in the hall.
When a glimpse passes by in the silence. Eun Hwa-rin, who was worse off, made a sneaky suggestion to Yu Seol.
“How about proceeding without the two of you? “I will notify the two of you separately about this agenda.”
“There is no need for that. “Because it’s already arrived.”
“yes? “What do you an?”
Instead of answering, Yoo Seol looked at the main gate of the governnt office.
Then he muttered sothing aningful.
“Don’t do that at the door, co in quickly.”
“…?”
Just when everyone was confused. As Yoo Seol stretched out one hand, the huge gate of the governnt office began to open of its own accord.
Wow!
Opening a thick door with inner strength from such a long distance is not easy.
But I couldn’t help but be surprised by that.
It was because of the two black and white people standing awkwardly at the wide open entrance.
Namgung Cheolhu was wearing a black crown, and King Munjong was wearing a flower-shaped ornant in his ear.
“….”
Everyone looked at them with blank faces for a mont.
After one more breath.
Paedomun’s Baekgyu was the first to burst into laughter.
“Puhahaha!! What is that on top of your head? “Did you really want to be king?”
That was the beginning. Everyone couldn’t hold back their laughter and held their bellies.
“Haha! “I never dread you two had such tastes.”
“Kkkkkk. “Oh my, it’s a pear…”
The black and white duo felt like they wanted to go into a rat hole.
But no one could be blad. Didn’t they also burst into laughter in front of the group?
Namgung Cheolhu, whose face was red, asked everyone with an angry expression.
“Are you laughing like that in front of ? “I don’t know what this crown is…”
After he finished speaking, he glanced at Hoeju.
They looked like they were asking for the sa punishnt as they had received.
However, Yoo Seol spoke to Eun Hwarin as if he was not interested.
“Let’s begin, Commander-in-Chief.”
“All right.”
At that ti, Namgung Cheolhu called Yu Seol with an expression of resentnt.
“…Sashimi Lord.”
But Yu Seol didn’t even pay attention.
The black and white pair, who had beco sullen, hesitated for a mont and then quietly went to their seats.
Anyway, thanks to them, the eting was able to start in a bright atmosphere.
As usual, General Manager Eun Hwarin led the eting and began reporting various agenda items.
From the current status of various projects promoted by Cheonyuhoe to matters related to supply materials.
Since most of it was being resolved on her behalf, there were no unusual issues. So far…
“Here’s the next report. “There were so incidents at the recent release as well.”
Gaebong is the capital where the imperial family is located.
It wasn’t that difficult to guess what kind of incident it was.
“Did assassins really co to visit?”
“yes. “Just as Lord Hoe had guessed, those who wanted to assassinate the emperor appeared at the opening.”
Didn’t the Cheonyuhoe headquarters also suffer quite a bit from the assassin nad ‘Nadani’?
The circumstances of the release also did not seem to be that easy.
“What happened?”
“So high-ranking officials have been killed, but the emperor is still safe. “The assassin is currently being tracked.”
“hmm. “Do you need support?”
“They said they would try to resolve it with their own efforts first, so I think it would be better to just wait and see for now.”
Even based on Yoo Seol’s judgnt, it seed like it would only be a matter of ti before he was caught.
This is because Gwangneungjinin, the greatest martial arts sect of all ti, and the best martial arts assassin were guarding it together.
“I understand. “Even if I’m not here anymore, please take care of it just like you do now.”
At Hoeju’s aningful words, Eunhwarin tilted her head and asked.
“Where are you planning to go again?”
“We will begin closing training starting tomorrow. “I need to beco stronger to fight Arhat…”
Several elders asked with expressions of incomprehension.
“No matter how strong he is, will he be as strong as Lord Hoe?”
“Aren’t you being too cautious? “No one has actually t him and there are only rumors.”
“If we join forces and attack, even if we are immortals, we won’t be able to withstand it.”
Those who did not know much about Arhat were caught off guard.
However, the thoughts of the yin-yang twin monsters that have been closely investigated so far were different.
Jinsan Yu, who had been watching silently, spoke for the first ti.
“Do not look down on an Arhat. Even the Heavenly Demon, who founded the Demonic Cult a long ti ago, lost his life to him.”
Who is the Heavenly Demon? He was an unrivaled expert who may be the strongest in the history of the Jungwon Murim.
Many people responded in disbelief.
“Are you the Heavenly Demon I know?”
“exactly. I have the records he left behind, so if you don’t believe , co to . “I will check for you personally.”
After Yu Jin-san spoke like this, no one could argue anymore.
However, so people seed anxious that the leader was away.
“But the heavenly bastards will attack again soon. “If Lord Hoe is late, I doubt whether we can stop it on our own.”
“Please consider.”
“If not Lord, who can lead us?”
To so extent, this was an expected reaction.
Yu Seol imdiately gave the answer he had prepared as if he knew that would happen.
“Our elder Yanggoe will do it for you. “Don’t worry, you’re not weaker than .”
The majority seed to be skeptical of Yoo Seol’s words.
It is a well-known fact that Yu Jin-san beca a peerless expert after learning magic, but everyone had different opinions about the level of his strength.
Anyway, that wasn’t what mattered now.
Director Jeonghye of Shaolin Temple, who had been watching silently until now, spoke for the first ti.
“Amitabha Buddha. Arhats are those who have surpassed human limitations, so they must never let down their guard. Theravada’s thoughts are also consistent with Hoeju’s claims.”
When Jeonghye, the highest allocator of the political faction Moorim, agreed and ca forward, no one objected anymore.
However, the lively atmosphere in the hall began to subside again.
Yu Seol noticed this and asked the elders with a grin.
“Why is everyone’s expression like that? “Are you sad that I’m leaving for training?”
Baekgyu lightly tapped the table and smiled.
“What should I do because I’ve been missing our Lord for so long!?”
Starting with him, the others also joked and agreed.
“It’s sad that we have to say goodbye again so soon after coming here.”
“I was looking forward to the day when I could spar with Lord Hoeju again…”
King Munjong, who was a lover of wine, also added a word.
“Are you really going to leave without having a farewell drink? “Isn’t that too much?”
As everyone grumbled as if they were disappointed, Yoo Seol’s mouth caught in their ear. It was the expression he made when he was in a really good mood.
“Hi-Hi. I knew that would happen and I prepared it in advance. “Today is the last day, so everyone have fun in the banquet hall!”
There was no promise when we would et them again.
How can we know if sothing bad will happen to soone in the anti?
Everyone instinctively knew that the turbulent martial arts war would soon begin. That’s why I cherished this mont when a brief mont of peace ca.
“ha ha ha! “Good!”
“I’ve been looking forward to this day!”
* * *
The grand banquet that started in the evening continued until the next morning.
Everyone had a happier ti, laughing and talking more than ever.
But that only lasts for a mont.
Yu Seol was very disappointed as she prepared to leave her residence.
Yu Jin-san, who was taking care of her luggage by her side, also knew how her granddaughter felt. Because his expression quickly changed to a gloomy one.
“Do you feel sad about leaving?”
“What should I do because I miss my grandpa… hmm.”
Yu Jin-san laughed and responded to the sight of his granddaughter looking like she was crying.
“Once you start training, you won’t have ti to think about expenses. “Are you ready?”
At that ti, Yoo Seol took sothing out of his bag and held it out.
It was the Sakyamuni Gap, the best armor in the martial world in na and reality.
“Just in case you don’t know, my grandpa is wearing this.”
“What a guy. “What is the use of this money?”
Even though he said that, Jin-san Yu accepted the giraffe armor.
After all, it would be an item that the granddaughter who would be at Seongsan would not need.
“Are you wearing your necklace well? “You can never take it out.”
“necklace? Are you talking about the Luyi Orb that you took from the First Emperor? “Oh, he’s kicking very well.”
Jinsan Yu took out the necklace hidden under his clothes and showed it to him.
Then Yoo Seol grabbed his shoulders with both hands and spoke with a serious expression.
“And promise .”
“What?”
“I will never die until I return. “You can’t get hurt!”
It was as if parents were praising their children going to war.
Since it was a familiar situation by now, Yu Jin-san did not think much about it.
“Don’t worry baby. “Even the expenses are not weak anymore.”
Yujinsan, who had completely inherited Cheonma’s progress, no longer had anything to be afraid of.
Of course, I can’t help but think that my granddaughter’s worries are excessive.
Yu Seol still seed relieved and hugged her grandfather and patted him on the back.
“I’ll be back soon, so even if you miss Seol, just be patient.”
“OK. Now stop worrying about spending money and get out there. “Dengjoong has been waiting for you since a while ago.”
Joson said goodbye to his residence.
Manager Jeonghye was already standing in front of the door, waiting for the rumor.
And next to him was a huge tiger.
“Grandpa, let’s get on board too.”
Yoo Seol, who was riding on Darong’s back, motioned towards Jeong Hye.
However, he only chanted the Buddha’s na with his palms together.
“Amitabha Buddha. Theravada would like to do that, but I don’t think this evil beast will allow it.”
As expected, Darong was glaring at Jeonghye and showing signs of discomfort.
It seed like he didn’t want to give it a ride.
At that ti, Yu Jin-san, who ca out with his back in front of the door, clicked his tongue and said.
“Haldaebi is right, right? “That an beast discriminates against people?”
purr-!!
A huge tiger with its fangs exposed looked at Yu Jin-san and Jeong-hye alternately.
“Uh-huh! then no. “You’re nice, right?”
Only after the rumor was spoken did Darong lie flat on the floor.
It was as if he didn’t want to give a ride, but he was forcing to do so.
Jeonghye, who noticed this, shook her head excitedly.
“Hawseung, I’ll just run. “I will lead the way, so please follow .”
There was no need to decline.
Yuseol, lying flat on Darong’s back, shouted with a bright expression.
“Let’s go, Darong!”
Behind Jeonghye, who was performing a light attack as fast as the wind, Darong began to follow her like a swordfight.
And Yu Jin-san watched them with his back turned.
‘…Have a nice trip, baby.’
He did not withdraw his gaze until his granddaughter’s figure disappeared completely from sight.
He entered the living quarters a while later and flopped down on a chair. This is because an unknown emptiness ca into the granddaughter’s empty space.
It was sothing that could take several months or even over a year.
After sitting blankly for a while, he thoughtlessly rummaged around in his arms. He then took out a square card that was emitting eerie magical energy.
It was a sacred item from the Demonic Cult that was received as a gift from Baekyoran.
“By the way, did you say there’s a secret hidden in this new object?”
For the ti being, all that was left was ti.
Since he had nothing to do at the ti, he started looking around at the new items.
