Episode 1440. Yeah, remember that. (5)
After a while, Zongligok, who quickly took his eyes off Qingmyeong, politely waved his hand at Hyeonjong.
“then.”
King Hyeonjong also suddenly attacked Jongrigok.
“Our positions are different, but in the end, I think it’s all for Kangho. “I wish you success.”
“⋯⋯I wish you the best of luck.”
Zongligoo, who had equally given Tanggunak his hand, gently turned his body.
“let’s go.”
“Yes, Jang Mun-in!”
Jongnam’s swordsmen took one look at Hwasan’s disciples and turned around. As Hwasan’s disciples frowned slightly, Lee Song-baek spoke implicitly to Cheongmyeong and Wu Geom.
“Jang Mun-in says that, but I don’t necessarily think that way.”
“yes?”
“And I’m sure I’m not the only one who thinks that.”
Lee Song-baek looked at Cheongmyeong and smiled. This means that Jongnam’s superiors and subordinates had different thoughts.
“There’s no reason we can’t join hands just because we’re competing. Rather, I think we may need each other even more because we are competing. “The same thing is already happening within Jongnam.”
Baekcheon nodded seriously. It seems like he understands what Lee Song-baek means.
“So…”
“Lee Song-baek!”
Lee Song-baek flinched at the cold voice he heard and stopped talking. When he awkwardly turned around, he saw Jingeumryong staring coldly at him.
“Do it in moderation.”
“I’m sorry, death penalty.”
Lee Song-baek quietly added with a humble expression on his face.
“Of course, it will still take some time.”
He shrugged his shoulders and waved his hand at Hwasan’s disciples.
“I’ll see you again then. “I think we’ll probably see each other quite often now.”
“It was nice to meet you, Sohyup.”
Five swords faced each other with a fist. Song Baek turned his head and looked at Qingming.
“Cheongmyeong seal.”
“hmm?”
“thank you.”
Lee Song-baek bowed his head deeply towards Cheongmyeong. This was not Kang Ho-in’s courtesy, but human politeness.
“What happened out of the blue?”
“The teachings given by the Dojo taught me and Jongnam many things. “How should I repay this favor?”
“What bullshit. Why am I showing favor to Jongnam? Be careful, guys! “Someday, I will set fire to Mt. Jongnam!”
Lee Song-baek chuckled and laughed.
“I believe that the way to repay that favor is to follow your teachings.”
“So you’re saying I’ve never given you any favors?”
“I wish I could show you my sword sometime. It may not be enough, but you will be able to see that it has changed from before.”
Cheongmyeong looked up at the sky with an ecstatic face. Jo Geol, who looked at him as if all strength had been drained from his body, whispered softly.
“Death penalty… “It seems like there is such a thing as a natural enemy in the world.”
“⋯⋯It’s an eternal parallel line. “We don’t even listen to what others say.”
“Then come back anytime.”
Lee Song-baek gave a restrained hand and turned around. Even as the transport bag was moving away, only one person remained.
“⋯⋯Why aren’t you going?”
Baekcheon asked Jingeumryong with an extremely uncomfortable expression.
Before Cheongmyeong appeared in the volcano, he had been oppressed by the Jingeumryong all his life. There was a time when the only goal in life was to defeat the Jingeumryong.
I am sure now. In terms of skill, he had already surpassed Jin Jinlong a long time ago. No matter how much stronger Jingeumryong became, there was absolutely no reason why he could not fight and win.
But strangely enough, this discomfort never went away.
Jingeumryong, who was staring at Baekcheon with a very dissatisfied look, opened his mouth.
“I didn’t know.”
“yes?”
“I thought he was a poor guy, but not a spoiled guy. “It seems like my habits have gotten worse because I’ve been hanging out with strange people.”
Baekcheon’s face suddenly distorted.
“Stop arguing and just go your own way.”
“There is my father.”
Baekcheon flinched at Jingeumryong’s words for a moment.
“Even though you have received protection, you are still a member of the Jin family. “Are you not going to even say hello to your father, whom you haven’t seen in years?”
Only then did Baekcheon look beyond the Jingeumryong. Where the elders and disciples of Jongnam were gathered, there was Jin Cho-baek, who was looking back.
“If that’s the case, it would be better to remove Jin from the name. “I feel sorry for your father who still thinks of people like you as family.”
“Even if you say the same thing…”
Baekcheon frowned disapprovingly and glared at Jingeumryong.
“Of course, I am from the Jin family and I am not a spoiled person.”
At those words, the five swords started whispering among themselves.
“Isn’t that right?”
“Right.”
“Yes, we are brothers. “I see it perfectly.”
“Noisy!”
Baekcheon shouted loudly and cleared his throat.
“But it doesn’t seem like my father would be very happy for me to go there now.”
“⋯⋯.”
“Now that you have opened the seal, I will go and give you a formal greeting. “Please tell me that.”
Jin Geum-ryong glared at Baek-cheon and snorted.
“It’s clear that you don’t have any hair. “You’re using my older brother as a messenger.”
“Oh what!”
In the end, Baekcheon got angry. However, Jin Geum-ryong’s gaze, which had already lost interest, had shifted to Cheong-myeong.
“Looking at your face, you seem to be having a good time.”
“Oh really? It seems like his personality has gotten worse. Or is it a characteristic of the Jin family?”
“You bastard! Don’t tie it up! Let go! Won’t you let go?”
Baekcheon, who began to struggle, was caught and dragged away by Ohgeom’s quick suppression. Jingeumryong glanced in that direction, clicked his tongue, and said.
“I clearly remember the debt I owed in the past.”
“debt? “What debt do you owe?”
Cheongmyeong tilted his head as if he really couldn’t remember, then clapped his hands loudly.
“Are you talking about the time when you were beaten by Sasuk at a martial arts competition?”
“⋯⋯.”
“You’re still thinking about that as a good memory? “Forgetting it would be good for your mental health.”
In an instant, a bright blue spirit poured out from Jingeumryong. But Cheongmyeong laughed again. Jingeumryong said as if he was chewing.
“It looks like nothing has changed. thank god. I was worried about what would happen if you changed. “I think I can repay the debt to my heart’s content.”
Cheongmyeong picked his ear with his little finger.
“Well, that’s just my mind… but is it possible with just my mind? You have to have skills, you have to have skills. Unfortunately, I think your skills are still not enough.”
“joy.”
Jingeumryong snorted, shot Cheongmyeong a look, and grabbed his sword.
Baekcheon, who was momentarily surprised, was about to rush at Jingeumryong, but Jingeumryong’s sword was pulled out before him and poured out dazzling white sword energy towards Cheongmyeong.
Hwaaaaaaa!
The sword energy that shot out created a colorful embroidery on Cheongmyeong’s head. Cheongmyeong narrowed his eyes at the flashy, eye-catching sword.
“⋯⋯This?”
“It’s my new sword. No, it’s Jongnam’s new sword.”
“Oh…”
Cheongmyeong was about to say something but closed his mouth.
Sulwha twelve meals. A low-level sword technique created based on Hwasan’s Twenty-Four-Sweet Plum Blossom Sword Technique.
However, the sword Jingeumryong unfolded now was the Sulwha Twelve Sword, but it was not the Sulwha Twelve Sword. The sword was still as white as snow, but there was no trace of plum blossoms in the sword.
Cheongmyeong’s eyes twitched.
I want to bet on something else, but I don’t have anything to bet on. Even if they started from the plum blossom sword method, if they found their own meaning and form, it should be called Jongnam’s martial arts. From the beginning, all martial arts in the world developed in that way.
“I tried my best, but it seems like I don’t understand what’s being said. Jongnam’s sword…”
“Why did you decide that?”
“huh?”
A look of puzzlement flashed across Cheongmyeong’s face. Jin Geum-ryong glanced back at where his executioners were and said.
“It certainly seems like there are some people who were taken aback by your foolish words. Jongnam must return to his roots. “There is everything about Jongnam in the thirty-six swords of the world.”
“⋯⋯Because it’s not wrong.”
“No, that’s wrong.”
Jingeumryong spoke to Cheongmyeong, who frowned.
“Of course, the Four Sixteen Swords of the World are the foundation of Jongnam and the foundation of Jongnam. However, if you pursue only the past and perfect it, the Jongnam will remain a Jongnam of the past.”
“⋯⋯.”
“Jongnam will become stronger. “With the sword newly created by Jongnam.”
Jingeumryong, who retrieved the sword, scolded coldly.
“Until then, you should clean your throat well.”
“Even Sapa bastards don’t use that word these days.”
“joy.”
Jingeumryong turned resolutely.
“Then let’s go. “Keep your promise, Jin Jin-ryong.”
“Don’t call me that!”
Then he walked away from them as coldly as a cold wind blew. Everyone let out a deep sigh as they watched Jongnam disappear into the distance.
“…but it’s a good thing.”
“Yes. I also received help.”
“okay. “It’s a really good thing, but…”
Baekcheon muttered with a face filled with worry.
“It’s really not going to be a windy day anymore.”
“That’s right, Dongryong Sasuk.”
Baekcheon’s fist stuck into Jo Geol’s chin.
As soon as Jin Geum-ryong joined those who had started first, there was a voice that came out.
“How was it?”
“⋯⋯What do you mean?”
“Weren’t you very much looking forward to reuniting with your brother?”
It was Lee Song-baek who asked the question. Jingeumryong looked back with angry eyes, but he just smiled.
Those around me were nervous without even realizing it. They say you can’t spit on a smiling face. But isn’t Jingeumryong a person who can wield a sword even if he can’t spit?
“…Stop talking nonsense.”
“Yes, death penalty.”
But fortunately, Jin Geum-ryong just let it go without saying anything. Several people watching the situation breathed a sigh of relief.
‘Anyway, I heard you have a good personality.’
Even within Jongnam, Lee Song-baek is probably the only person who can tell Jin Geum-ryong a joke like that. Thanks to this, Jongnam’s mood softened a lot.
“And you?”
“yes?”
“Wasn’t it really you who were looking forward to meeting, not me?”
Song Baek quietly nodded at those words.
“Of course.”
“What are your thoughts on this long-awaited meeting?”
“well.”
Lee Song-baek had a strange smile on his face.
“I was a little embarrassed because of the situation…”
He paused for a moment and glanced back. Cheongmyeong was standing on a street that was no longer visible.
“It was still the same.”
“That’s not fun.”
Lee Song-baek chuckled and laughed.
It’s still the same.
I’m not just talking about personality. To him, Cheongmyeong was still like a huge mountain, and even like a sky that he could not jump over. Even though he had injuries all over his body and was exhausted, he didn’t look small at all.
So I was happy and happy. Like a climber who discovered a mountain that can be climbed endlessly.
“It is a pity that I was not able to see the sword of the dojo. “I’m sure it would have taught me a lot.”
“You’re going to get sick of it now.”
“I guess so.”
Song Baek’s eyes gradually darkened as he answered calmly.
‘Jang Il-so.’
Although it became awkward as the Sapaeryeon easily retreated, the momentum we briefly encountered was strong enough to give us goosebumps just thinking about it.
Now Jongnam will have to fight against those people.
Lee Song-baek lightly held the sword on his waist. Of course, it is a scary enemy. But the path he will take has already been decided.
“When I return, I will have to start training again.”
“Aren’t you tired of it?”
“Because it has to be done.”
Jin Geum-ryong shook his head excitedly.
“I am the one who defeats the Hwasan Sword Association. “Cutting in line is not tolerated.”
“⋯⋯That will have to be seen.”
“what?”
“I’ll go first.”
As Lee Song-baek kicked the ground and moved forward, Jin Geum-ryong briefly ground his teeth. However, his gaze soon turned back, not at Lee Song-baek.
‘Jin Dong-ryong.’
Baekcheon, whom he faced in the martial arts competition, still had some skills. However, the Baekcheon I encountered today was worthy of being viewed as a single warrior. No, in fact, he was much more military-like than his older brother.
“Tsk.”
Jin Geum-ryong briefly clicked his tongue and thought. When I return, I will first secure a suitable training room.
