Chapter 190 – King Yan’s Disciple 2 (17)
Why did Master call Hwanggeommundo?
I’ll explain it soon, but I’m sure the people involved are more curious than me.
“This is Hwanggeommun’s residence. King Yeom, would you mind if I ask why you called us to Wuhan?”
“Yes, you are the one who went with me. As you know, except for the four of you, all the disciples of Hwanggeommun died. While protecting the villagers, they were all killed by the green snake monster. So, I praise your will and hope that you can recover. If you have it, do it.”
“But Lord Moon… And the executioners…”
Yutaek’s voice trembled as if he couldn’t control his emotions.
Master waited for a while and then spoke.
“It’s okay to say that you want to give up the path of martial arts. It’s more difficult to come back after something like that. If you want to lay down your sword, Zhuge Zhuang will help you get an education at Zhuge Family.”
Zhuge Zhuangzhu nodded, as if he had already finished talking with Master.
“So what happens if we decide to remain unmanned?”
Yutaek carefully asked Master.
“I’ll ask the best swordsman I know to help you stand on your own.”
Although he didn’t say it directly, among the swordsmen that Master knows, the swordsman who is the best with a sword is the Sword King.
If we can get our swordsmanship corrected by the Sword King, this generation may have a hard time, but the next generation will be able to move in a better direction.
After hearing those words, the four people, Yutaek, Yujun, Kangae, and Jin Yuhwa, began to worry.
Yoo Taek, who can now be said to be an ambassador, said.
“I can’t give you a definite answer right now. Do you mind if we discuss it among ourselves and give you an answer?”
“Yes. Anyway, it will be necessary to learn from Zhuge Family. To create a sect, you must be able to use not only your brute force but also your brain to make money and maintain the sect. Think about it and give an answer.”
“Thank you so much, Elder King Yeom!”
“Thank you!
Hwanggeommun’s disciples took up arms and bowed their heads deeply.
He waved his hand at Master and said.
“I’m done talking to you four, so you can leave. You said you needed time to discuss things, right?”
“You can go back to the manor with the military personnel of the Xiaoqing Army.”
“It’s okay. I remember the way to the manor, so we’ll go on our own.”
Just like that, the four members of the Hwanggeommundo left, and four people remained, including the two members of the Zhuge family and me and Master.
I poured a drink into Master’s empty glass, and Master emptied a glass right away.
“Disciple.”
“Yes, Master.”
“The world is becoming strange.”
“It seems so.”
“I know that you grow quickly. To reach near your peak in less than a year is an unbelievable pace.”
“It’s all thanks to Master.”
“The Demon Cult and the Blood Cult were crazy things, but they were still humans. But now they are Yokai. Youkai are not even human.”
“That’s right. It’s not human.”
“But can you do your dream of touring the bases in the central region with peace of mind?”
At Master’s words, the expressions of the two members of the Zhuge family completely changed.
It seemed like he was talking quite seriously, but then the story suddenly took a turn.
“It must be difficult. Isn’t the reason I learned martial arts, so I wouldn’t get stabbed while exploring Giru?”
“That’s right. Even now, I don’t think I’ll ever get hit by someone, but you never know about youkai.”
“I need to become strong enough so that Master doesn’t worry.”
“Yes. If you reach the 7th star before your birthday, you will be able to aim for the 8th star as well as the Dragon Feng Feiwu Emperor.”
My birthday is 2 months away, but Yongbongbimuje is about 7 months away.
The story is that you have to level up almost every four months, but I thought it was a bit difficult even for someone with quest skills.
“Master, I don’t think that makes sense.”
“No. You can do it. Besides, aren’t there a lot of kiru in this infinite world?”
“Can the courtesans handle me?”
If I start practicing using Palyun, my yang energy will accumulate beyond my ability to handle it.
I wonder if it will really be solved by giving them to courtesans.
“It’s difficult. You probably won’t be able to stay all the way to Infinity. You should start exploring Giru early, which is what you wanted.”
“Oh. Then I think it will be fun to practice.”
“Hey, if you say something like that about me…”
Zhuge Xian, the only woman in the room, spoke carefully, as if the story being told was a bit burdensome.
After the story of Jegal Seon-yu came out, she just smiled and listened to our story.
Master glanced at Jegal Seon-ah for a moment, then she looked at me.
“You can start training tomorrow, right? Don’t you sleep well?”
“Well… That’s right. If you’re saying that you need to start training tomorrow, it’s okay to not introduce it like that.”
“Is that so?”
Master said with a slight smile.
“Yes. I am full of desire to learn more.”
“Okay, good. Do you two have anything to say separately?”
“I don’t have one. What about you, Seon?”
“I don’t have one either… Instead, the body of that white monster is…”
“I’ll bring you a white flame pistol and get one. I caught a few, so I’ll have some to spare.”
We cleaned up the drinking table and left the room.
Wouldn’t it be a bit of a waste to come to Donghwaru just to have this kind of light talk?
Still, the atmosphere was good.
When Su Qing saw Master and Zhuge Zhuang, she lowered her head, and Su Mi, who had been standing in front, also lowered her head.
I thought it was cute, so I patted her head lightly.
“Hehe…”
“Then let’s go down.”
When Zhuge Xianyu said that, Master jumped down the stairs instead of using them.
I think it was over 15 m since the gap between floors is quite wide on the 6th floor, but I couldn’t hear the sound of Master landing.
“Hehe?!”
Somi, very surprised, walked up to the railing and looked down at her.
Master was leisurely walking out of Giru.
Then he turned and looked at us, and it seemed like he was hoping to see someone jump again.
“Nobody can do something like that.”
When Jegal Seon-ah said that, Somi nodded her head, looking slightly disappointed.
I also think this height is a little high.
We calmly walked down the stairs and returned to the Zhuge family’s Wuhan Manor, but Master was not there.
It looks like he went to see the blacksmith with the white flame pistol.
I thought I should rest because I could rest, and was about to ask for a room where I could rest, when Hwanggeommun’s Yutaek approached me.
“A small group of people.”
“Yes. Master Yutaek Sohyeop did not come right away.”
“Can you have a dance with me?”
Did you find me, not Master?
“It’s okay. But is there any reason?”
“Right now, I don’t have any qualifications, but I feel like I’ll suddenly become the master of a sect. So I’m trying to learn about the topic.”
Yutaek’s level was definitely not enough to establish a first-class, sect.
Are you trying to decide what happens next based on the results of your sparring with me? Anyway, I planned to do my best.
“I understand. I don’t think I can look at it since you don’t have the White Flame Fist Armor.”
“I’m not changing the sword?”
“Yes. I won’t be able to control my strength.”
“Couldn’t I just change my sword?”
Yutaek said while rolling his eyes.
“Let’s use a real sword.”
And as if he had made up his mind, he nodded.
“Okay, then I will do my best.”
I asked a nearby servant and came to the place used as a training hall in the manor.
The disciples of Huang Jianmen and a few people from the Zhuge family came to take a look, but I don’t think there would be anything special to see.
Should I say that?
“Then I will give up three seconds?”
“Yes, I understand.”
This. I accept it.
Yutaek immediately raised his sword and took a stance.
I exhaled all the breath in my lungs and then filled them with new air.
I took a proper stance and Yoo Taek swung his sword.
The tip of the sword trembled slightly as it cut me.
Because I used insight, I wanted to dig right in and punch, but I backed away slightly.
Yutaek swung the sword lowered wide.
An honest horizontal cut could be avoided by falling back again.
There is only one thing left.
At that time, Yu Taek injected energy into his sword.
Although it was an unorganized and unstable sword technique, it could be said to be a first-class state because it could use sword energy.
“Hmph!”
I created a sword with all my strength and aimed for my shoulder with all my might, but no matter how strong I was, it was meaningless if I didn’t hit.
So I avoided it for three seconds and dug in right away.
Puck!
“Big.”
Hit the abdomen.
Puck! Puck!
“Knock! Knock!”
He hit the shoulder and chest.
Puck! Puck! Puck!
He gave a quick series of blows and retreated.
Since he just punched without putting any effort into it, he probably didn’t take much damage, but it was enough to change Yutaek’s mood.
I swung the sword with more power than the three seconds that were shown to me.
However, because it failed to balance power and speed, a gap appeared.
Poop!
I hit his right shoulder with my fist and retreated.
Yutaek continued to swing his sword while enduring the pain, and I was able to dodge it without difficulty.
“Haa… Haa…”
Yutaek, exhausted from being beaten by me, let out a heavy breath.
Then he grasped the handle of the sword tightly with both hands and began swinging the sword again.
Finally, when I tried to read the sword using insight to see if I was using the proper sword technique, I saw several traces.
However, because I learned how to deal with it at the Global Academy, I was now able to perfectly distinguish between bad and bad without being swayed by skills.
Poop!
Yutaek, who had been hit in the abdomen again, frowned and swung his sword again.
Poop!
Poop!
Puck! Puck!
How much time has passed?
Yoo Taek, who was completely exhausted from being beaten by me, was sweating profusely and did not let go of his sword until the end.
This is enough to confirm Yutaek’s will.
But it didn’t reach me because I didn’t have enough skills.
“I will end this with Yutaek Sohyeop.”
“Yes, I understand!!!”
Yutaek squeezed out all his power and created a very faint sword energy.
But the sword was never swung.
One wheel
Whoa whoa whoa!!!
Yutaek fell backwards after being hit with a powerful punch in his chest.
Your physical strength would already be close to its limit.
“Brother!!!”
“Death penalty!”
“Execution of Yutaek!”
The people of Hwanggeommun ran to Yoo Taek.
As I was leaving the training ground, gathering the lost heat, Jegal Seon-ah must have been watching and said to me.
“Han Sohyeop, were you good at controlling your strength?”
“Rather than saying it was an adjustment, it was not used at all.”
I don’t know if I would have continued to use Yeomryun Kwon Mu-ryun, but I really didn’t use my strength.
“Then, thanks to Young master Han’s relaxation, the will of the Yutaek Sohyeop was properly confirmed.”
I took a quick look at the training hall where the Hwanggeommundo were gathered.
It seems like the old sword king has someone to look after his sword.
