Return of the Blossoming Blade Chapter 1183

Episode 1183. I will carry it. (2)

Hwasan was not the only one looking at Baekcheon with eyes that seemed fascinated or admiring.

Everyone here couldn’t take their eyes off him. Even the court and Zhongli-hyung looked quite surprised.

Everyone is watching again. A person named Baekcheon. His true face was hidden behind the prestige of King Hyeonjong and Cheongmyeong.

“It was then that my concerns took shape. But the real worries already started before that.”

“…Before that?”

“yes. “It all started with Lord Nangong Soga.”

“yes? “Are you saying that?”

Namgung Do-wi, who was unable to breathe and was looking at Baekcheon with eyes filled with heat, asked back without realizing it and then covered his mouth in shock.

However, Baekcheon did not care about the reactions of those around him and just calmly continued to say what he wanted to say.

“To be honest, Lord Nangong Soga was someone I didn’t think very highly of.”

“….”

A look of annoyance flashed across Nangung Dowi’s face, as if he had been hit out of nowhere. I was even feeling moved by Baekcheon, but he said something like that.

“But the current Lord Nangong Soga is such a great person that I wouldn’t even dare to follow him.”

“Pear Baekcheon Seal.”

“Lord Soga of Namgung is leading the half-destroyed Namgung family and rebuilding it. Sometimes it’s so good that no one can deny it.”

Hyeonjong nodded at those words.

“…okay. yes.”

Is there anyone here who doesn’t know how much Nangong Daowi is struggling?

“Sometimes I admired it, and sometimes I was jealous. “The person who had narrowed the gap and thought he could now jump over it suddenly widened the distance again and started moving further away.”

Hyeonjong nodded again as if he understood.

To them, it was simply amazing, but Baekcheon, who was the same age as him, would not have been able to look at him with warm eyes. Of course you will feel competitive.

“So I thought. How did there come to be such a difference?”

Baekcheon took his gaze away from Nangong Daowi and looked at the others.

“I knew then. “The people who go ahead of me are not only Nangong Sogaju.”

Baekcheon’s eyes stop at Seolsobaek this time.

“Even though Lord Seol is younger than Lord Soga, he is recognized by Palace Bing. Everyone believes that Princess Seol will be a great palace owner, and she is working hard to live up to those expectations. “By reducing sleep at night.”

At those words, Seolsobaek scratched the back of his head as if embarrassed.

“and.”

Baekcheon’s eyes this time fell on Lim So-byeong, who was half-hiding in the corner.

“The King of Green Forest is also leading Green Forest well even though he is not that much older than me. King Nokrim, who was younger than Jang Il-so, held the important position of head of one of the five Shinju clans, hiding his identity and age so that others would not look down on him.

“Lim So-byeong cleared his throat awkwardly and hit his face with an unopened fan.

Baekcheon, who was looking at them all, turned his head and asked Hyeonjong.

“Jangmun-in.”

“….”

“What is the difference between them and me? What am I lacking that makes me unable to be like them? “Even people younger than me, who are no different from me, are leading a sect brilliantly, so why should I still receive protection from Jang Mun-in and defer the price of being cowardly to Jang Mun-in?”

“…That…”

Even Hyeonjong couldn’t answer these words.

But Baekcheon shook his head as if he wasn’t looking for an answer.

“It’s not Jang Moon-in’s fault. But the difference clearly exists. That’s why I was worried. “Where does the difference come from?”

Baekcheon looked at Namgung Dowi.

“My conclusion was simple. I am sorry to the Soga Lord Namgung, but if the Soga Lord Namgung were alive, the Soga Lord would never have been the same.”

This may sound rude. However, Namgung Dowi nodded without being offended at all. And he opened his mouth as if to give Baekcheon strength.

“You don’t have to be sorry. “That’s natural.”

Baekcheon nodded lightly and continued speaking.

“There was one big difference. “What did you carry?”

His gaze turned to Tanggunak.

It’s as if he was asking for agreement that the same thing happened when Tanggunak ascended to the position of head of the family. Tanggunak also received that gaze and nodded without realizing it.

“A place makes a person. It’s not that he was great because he was going to be the head of the family, but he could be great because he became the head of the family. The position requires responsibility commensurate with the position. But that is to say again…”

Baekcheon turned his gaze to Hwasan’s disciples. As if they should listen too.

“It also means that I was able to grow because I took responsibility and bore the weight myself.”

“….”

“For those who are not carrying the burden to argue that they want to be in the same position as those who are carrying it is nothing more than childish criticism. If you truly want to stand in the same position, you must also know how to carry yourself.”

His voice became clearer and clearer.

“Now that I know that, I will not avoid the burden I must bear. No, I want to carry that burden myself. “To grow further and become more confident through the responsibility I carry on my shoulders.”

“Baekcheon….”

“So, please, Jang Mun-in.”

Baekcheon slowly lowered his head and spoke. He was extremely polite, but never servile.

“Please allow me.”

A sigh flowed from Hyeonjong’s mouth.

How can I be so confident and proud? An indescribable feeling swept over him.

And then a low shouting sound passed his ears.

“Amitabha Buddha.”

The court, which had been watching the situation so far, seemed to be dissatisfied with something and tried to break the atmosphere.

“It seems like Lord Baekcheon is in too much of a hurry. Responsibility is…”

“Baekcheon.” “….”

But those words were cut off by none other than Hyeonjong’s voice.

“I know what you mean, but it is too difficult. Do you think you can handle that?”

It was a question with a heavy meaning, but Baekcheon had no hesitation in his answer.

“It’s difficult to do it alone.”

“…Alone?”

“yes. But it’s a long story. Jang Moon-in did not handle it all alone. There were elders by Jang Moon-in’s side. Elder Hyeon-hyeon led the martial arts of Hwasan, and Elder Hyeon-yeong took care of Hwasan’s finances.”

Emotions welled up on the faces of the two elders.

“It’s not just work. How can a person standing alone endure such hardships when the wind blows and the waves roll in? Jang Moon-in must have endured because of those people. And the Unja Bae masters, including the Unam masters and Ungeom masters, did their best to protect Jangmun-in.”

“okay. I didn’t do it alone. “It was definitely not.”

“Yes, Jang Moon-in. That’s right. It’s the same for me too. You can’t do it alone. But I have people who support me. Although he is quiet, he has a friend who is more dependable and trustworthy than anyone else, and has the ability to tell me the right path without paying attention to anyone when I take the wrong path.”

Yu Iseol’s mouth tightened and Yunjong quietly closed his eyes.

“Sometimes there are people who teach us that people should know how to follow hot consensus rather than cold reason, and there are people who will mediate the situation more objectively than anyone else, even if the distribution is low.”

Jo Geol turned his gaze upward as if in tears, and Tang Soso lowered his head.

“And… there is someone who whips me more than anyone else just by watching from behind. “I will endure those looks for the rest of my life.”

Everyone in Hwasan looks at Baekcheon.

A tooth that radiates light like the pure white robe he is wearing.

“Did you ask if you could do it? A long writer. I will do better than any of my students. Everyone will make me do that. And…”Baekcheon’s eyes finally turned to Cheongmyeong.

“I have no resentment toward the past and no debt to future generations. That’s why I need to become a writer right now. “In the coming era of war, I am the only one who can properly wield the sword called Hwasan.”

Cheongmyeong’s eyes, looking at him, were as heavy and dark as the deep sea. However, Baekcheon did not avoid that look at all and accepted it as is.

Baekcheon, who had been looking at Cheongmyeong for a while, slowly turned his gaze to face Hyeonjong.

“So, it’s a long story. Please make a decision. Do not try to trust the disciple. Trust the volcano, not the disciple. Please believe that the message our ancestors tried to convey has been passed down to me. The volcano will lead the disciple to the right path.”

Hyeonjong closed his eyes. What came to his mind was something that happened even before he met Baekcheon.

‘Master.’

His teacher handed over the lengthy position that no one wanted to take on to King Hyeonjong, who was not yet ready. And even until the moment of his death, he was worried about Hyeonjong.

Hyeonjong endured those difficult times. All through the cold midwinter. If Hyun-hyeon and Hyeon-yeong had not been by his side, he would never have been able to endure the cold.

That’s why I wanted to give them more time. It is a time when you can look at your life fully without being weighed down by the responsibilities of a long post.

But now Baekcheon is talking to him.

That time was not in vain. That time, that place, and that weight made Hyeonjong what he is today.

Although he was more than happy to say those words, he was also…

As Hyeonjong’s silence became longer, Yunjong secretly looked at the people around him.

The courtroom looks very uncomfortable no matter what, and Jong-ri-hyung looks like he’s going to start screaming at any moment, asking what’s going on.

Even the lords of the Cheonwoo Alliance, who were friendly to volcanoes, could not handle the current atmosphere.

Yoonjong, who thought something big would happen if something happened, quietly opened his mouth.

“It’s better… leave today and come back later…”

It was that moment.

“Disciples, listen.”

Hyeonjong opened his eyes and spoke solemnly. Hwasan’s disciples, inspired by that voice, immediately corrected their posture and attitude.

“Yes, Jang Mun-in!”

Hyeonjong gazed at Baekcheon with eyes like abstraction even as he meditated. Baekcheon proudly straightened his shoulders and met his eyes.

“The crime of bringing down Hwasan’s reputation to the ground with remarks unbecoming of the position is of the greatest severity. Also, the crime of daring to ask Jang Mun-in to hand over is equivalent to the death of a knight!”

“Come on, Jang Moon-in!”

“No…”

Hearing the words “Knight Extinction”, Hwasan’s disciples were startled and looked at King Hyeonjong. But his eyes were so cold that it left me speechless, so I couldn’t resist.

Everyone closed their eyes tightly, but only Baekcheon stared at Hyeonjong without wavering. He was obedient, as if he would completely follow the will of whatever conclusion was reached.

“Accordingly, I, King Hyeonjong, through my authority as Jangmunin of Hwasan, punish Baekcheon, the disciple who committed a crime, by banning him from practicing martial arts for six months and imprisoning him in Maehwa-dong.”

The volcano’s disciples opened their tightly closed eyes.

But Baekcheon, on the other hand, closed his eyes. I have no regrets because I did everything I wanted to do. It’s just…

“There are laws that must be followed in a sect. That law must be observed under any circumstances. “No one can avoid the punishment of failing to meet time, time, and etiquette.”

Hyeonjong always gave up his opinion. Because he gave orders in a frosty voice, no one dared complain. Just bow your head and accept it.

A bitter chill penetrated everyone’s hearts.

“The Elder Phenomenon.”

“Yes, Jang Mun-in.”

“As the invincible ruler of the volcano, execute punishment for the sins of criminals.”

“I will follow your orders.”

Ugh. The sound of someone grinding their teeth can be clearly heard. The sound seemed to announce an irreversible catastrophe. As that bitter catastrophe ripped apart people’s hearts, Hyeonjong’s voice, like a knife, penetrated everyone’s ears like thunder.

“step!”

Looking straight at Baekcheon, who had his eyes closed, Hyeonjong declared with all the dignity he possessed.

“With the authority of Hwasan Jang Mun-in, I appoint Baek Cheon, Hwasan’s great disciple, as Jang Mun-in’s representative to represent Jang Mun-in. The execution of all these punishments will be postponed until Baekcheon steps down from his position as Deputy Jangmun! This is the name of a volcanic scholar, so there will be no disagreement.”

Baekcheon opened his eyes.

His world, which had become slightly blurry, became clear and Hyeonjong’s image filled his field of vision.

A soft smile has been blooming on Hyeonjong’s lips for some time.

A smile as warm as the plum blossoms on a spring day that Baekcheon saw from Hyeonjong on the day he first climbed the volcano.

“Baekcheon.”

“…Yes, Jang Mun-in.”

Hyeonjong smiled softly and said.

“Now you are the master of volcanoes.”

“….”

“Please guide the volcano correctly.”

Baekcheon bowed his head.

His shoulders were not as confident as before. It was even pathetically trembling. But no one here could point a finger or laugh at that.

“Myung myung…”

Baekcheon’s watery voice came out.

“I will follow your orders.”

It was the moment when a new writer was born in Hwasan.
