Mok Gyeong-un smiles eerily and looks up at Grand Duke Na Yu-ryang’s eyeballs.
Baek Sa-ha the king of island poisons who was momentarily speechless hurriedly stopped the bleeding in Na Yu-ryang’s right eye and urged him.
“What are you doing?”
Baek Saha was truly absurd.
He doesn’t mistake the statement that he shouldn’t kill to mean that everything else is okay and I don’t know what he’s doing.
Mok Kyung-un said to him with a smile.
“It is as I said. “This is a bit annoying.”
“Are you bothered?”
Hearing Mo Gyeong-un’s words Baek Sa-ha suddenly remembered what Won Byeong-hak the King of Violent Power had said a few years ago.
[Elder Baek. Have you ever danced with an archduke?]
[You mean the Archduke? no. There is none. I heard that inaction has advanced a lot these days right?]
[yes. So I competed in a dance competition and it was amazing. It is difficult to compare with before.]
[Hoo. Is it that much?]
[yes. But aside from Muwi he also had unusual eyes.]
[Unusual eyes?]
[yes. After one eye took on a silver glow it became easier to read my eyesight.]
[Can you read elementary school with ease? Is there some unusual power in the eyes?]
[I think so. Of course the Archduke himself would not reveal that.]
Won Byeong-hak the King of Byeokryeok Kwon was the rival Gong Kwon teacher of Grand Duke Na Yuryang.
He was the one who asked for teachings as a benefit of receiving three senior plaques from the city of Hyeolgok.
Therefore among the five kings he is also the one who knows the most about Na Yulyang.
Baek Saha clicked his tongue and said.
“I think I’ve heard of the Archduke’s eyes but if those are really special eyes I’d be even more anxious not to be able to kill you.”
“It doesn’t matter. “Because we became enemies anyway.”
Mok Gyeong-un could tell because he felt a sense of kinship with Na Yu-ryang.
From the moment it wakes up it will do its best to kill you in any way possible.
He will probably do whatever it takes.
‘It’s a shame.’
It would be better for the future to kill him now.
However as Baek Sa-ha said if he kills Hui-ju’s disciple he will immediately have an affair with him.
Since he had something to find out from Hui Zhou he couldn’t kill him right now.
Therefore it was better to weaken its power at least a little.
Then suddenly Mok Gyeong-un thought what about this?
-Cheongnyeong.
-Tell me.
-What would it be like for a young spirit to take over this person’s body?
When I thought about it it seemed like if Cheongryeong took over this person’s body it would kill two birds with one stone.
Isn’t it none other than Grand Duke Na Yu-liang the first disciple of Hui Zhou?
If he can control him he can even approach Hoeju and deal with the pesky enemy named Na Yuliang in one go.
But the young man said something unexpected.
-It’s impossible.
-yes?
-Didn’t you say it was impossible?
-Why?
-When you break through the wall through enlightenment and reach the state of the world of peace the energy in your body penetrates the vital body and not only the body but also the soul becomes stronger making possession impossible.
-…Have you ever tried it?
-Do you think you haven’t tried it?
Listening to Cheongnyeong’s tone it seemed like he had tried it once before.
In that case the plan to control Prince Na Yu-ryang by possessing him went astray.
It’s unfortunate but I couldn’t help it.
Then Baek Saha the king of the island raised his body and said
“I don’t know why but he ended up crossing a river that he couldn’t return from. “I can’t believe I have enemies with no one else but the Archduke.”
Baek Saha shook his head.
To him Mok Kyung-un bowed his head as a courtesy and said.
“I’m sorry. “Master is also in trouble because of me.”
“obfuscation? okay. If it’s embarrassing it’s embarrassing. But what can we do about what has already happened? “Nobu never abandons his family.”
Hearing his words Mok Gyeong-un’s eyes sparkled with interest.
The opponent is no one else but the Grand Duke Na Yu-ryang the first disciple of Hui Zhou.
Regardless of his madness and ruthlessness it is said that he has 40% of supporters within the Cheonjihoe.
You have truly created your biggest enemy.
If we look at it calmly if he had just excommunicated him on the spot instead of helping him just now he wouldn’t have gotten into trouble with the Archduke or Yulliang.
Moreover even thinking about it now these words were surprising.
‘I don’t abandon my family….’
Contrary to appearances Baeksaha seemed to attach great importance to his loyalty.
Do you also see yourself as a member of his family having taken him as his disciple?
I was puzzled but Baek Saha said.
“Whew. “We don’t have time so let’s get this sorted out quickly.”
“Clean up?”
“okay. I will ask just three questions. If you trust this master please answer.”
Mok Kyung-un nodded and answered his words.
“…All right.”
Mokgyeongun does not trust anyone.
However since he fought against Na Yulyang for his own sake it was no exaggeration to say that he was in the same boat as of now.
In that case it was right for him to get him on the side by sharing a reasonable amount of information.
Baek Sa-ha asked then.
“How did you end up fighting with the Archduke?”
“The Archduke attacked me first.”
“what? The Archduke attacks first? “For what reason?”
Although the Archduke is different from others I know him to be a very reasonable person.
Why did such a person suddenly attack Mo Qingyun first?
“well. “I don’t know either.”
“…Are you asking Master to believe that?”
“Really. “I have one guess but…”
“guesswork? “Tell me.”
Mok Gyeong-un shrugged his shoulders and answered.
“It seemed like he was wary of me.”
“boundary?”
At these words Baek Saha the king of the island frowned and questioned.
Then he looked alternately at the faces of Grand Duke Na Yuliang and Mok Gyeong-un then stroked his beard and let out a sigh.
“Hmm.”
Actually I understand it to some extent.
Wasn’t he also surprised to see Mok Gyeong-un’s current inaction?
He who was in the state of transcendence only an hour ago has now broken through the wall and has reached the state of perfection.
No matter how much I thought about it this was something that was close to impossible based on common sense.
How long did it take even Baek Sa-ha to break through the wall?
Even though he had been training for nearly decades he was finally able to break through the wall.
However Mok Gyeong-un who was only 17 years old achieved this.
He entered the realm of unrivaled masters at the age of being the youngest in the current martial arts group.
‘ah!’
When I think about it it was Mok-gyeong-un that gave me the clue to enlightenment.
So has he already reached the state of Hwagyeong?
Baek Sa-ha asked.
“When did you break through the wall?”
“It hasn’t been long.”
“May I ask when exactly?”
“I was in the middle of a fight with the Archduke.”
‘!!!!!!!!’
At Mo Gyeong-un’s words Baek Sa-ha’s jaw suddenly opened without realizing it.
He exceeded his expectations that he would have already broken through the wall.
Does this mean that he gained enlightenment while fighting an enemy stronger than himself?
“under….”
It was so absurd that I could only marvel at it.
Was this child born with good fortune?
No even the word “heavenly luck” is not enough.
It was impossible for him to achieve enlightenment by competing with others if he did not have innate qualities.
Baek Sa-ha calmed down his excitement and soon asked.
“…This is related to the second question. “How on earth did you learn the Permanent Sutra?”
Even so this was a car I was very curious about.
He only showed his level once.
The purpose was to inform Mok Gyeong-un of the excellence and greatness of the Permanent Sutra.
Mok Kyung-un thought about his question for a moment.
‘Hmm.’
Normally this talent would have been hidden but Baek Sa-ha had already seen everything.
He couldn’t hide it anyway.
Since there was nothing else to do Mok Gyeong-un answered casually.
“I learned it once I saw it.”
“…what?”
Baek Sa-ha’s expression hardened.
He only showed me the secret once and I learned it by watching it?
For a moment Baeksaha’s mind became complicated.
If a person who had practiced martial arts for that long was exposed to a decent martial art he would be able to quickly understand its principles.
However if you ask him whether he can learn martial arts by seeing it only once the meaning is different.
Martial arts is not just about herbivorous skills.
As one progressed through martial arts it was impossible to master them perfectly without understanding the will or meaning contained in each elementary ritual.
Baek Sa-ha calmed himself down and asked.
“Are you really saying you learned it after just seeing it once?”
“It’s hard to just read it. “As I was looking at the scale I read the scratch marks in the handwriting and kept them in my mind.”
“image? Huh…”
Baek Sa-ha let out an exclamation.
A guy who is only 17 years old can even embody an image?
He was truly amazing.
Even he himself was at the peak of his peak so that he could see the traces and picture them in his head. How could this young guy do that?
‘…This is truly a monster.’
Baeksaha had no choice but to admit it.
This child was in an area that criminals could not reach.
It was truly an area that could be called genius.
Baek Sa-ha glanced at Na Yu-ryang.
‘I understand.’
I think I understand why he was so wary of Mok Gyeong-un.
If the awl is sharp it will stick out of the handle.
This child’s talent was exactly like that.
He is even equipped with the ridiculous progress of inaction which allows him to break through walls by gaining enlightenment while fighting against the monstrous understanding that he learns after reading the secret just once.
It was a level of ignorance that made me feel fear even trepidation.
‘Perhaps Nobu is watching the birth of a monster that will never be seen again in the martial arts temple.’
With this level of monstrous progress it was possible that within twenty years we would reach the realm of six heavens the peak of martial arts.
When his thoughts reached this point Baeksaha could not hide his excitement.
“Cluck.”
Even his hands and feet were shaking involuntarily.
If he met Mok Gyeong-un as an enemy he was a talent that he would definitely kill but he was not himself.
Didn’t he take this guy as his disciple?
In my later years I felt like luck was coming to me as a blessing in disguise.
‘Following Nobu there were two people who mastered the Permanent Sutra. There is no longer any reason to worry about the succession to the main family.’
He was just trying to be satisfied with being his disciple.
However now I really want to have Mok Gyeong-un as a member of the Baek family.
Since he had turned his back on the political faction and family anyway there was no problem even if he adopted this child as the Baek family.
‘This guy is a treasure. He is the greatest treasure.
I was so happy that I wanted to scream right away.
But not now.
He was faced with a problem that still needed to be solved.
“Cluck cluck. good night. Master Lee’s curiosity has been resolved. “Now the last question.”
“You seem to have a lot of questions.”
“Isn’t there bound to be a lot? Now Master Lee and you are in the same boat. “Can’t we overcome this crisis if we rely on each other?”
“…crisis.”
If it was a crisis it could have been a crisis.
Because I ended up making an annoying enemy.
“There is one thing Master Lee would like to ask. “What shall we do now?”
“What are you going to do?”
“okay. “Now that we have the Archduke as our enemy there is only one path we must take.”
‘one?’
It looks like he has something in mind.
Mok Gyeong-un asked this.
“Master do you have any thoughts?”
“Is there anything to think about or sleep about? “If the Grand Duke becomes the successor your position and that of our Baek family will be in danger.”
“…Well I guess that’s it.”
“Then what should we do?”
“We should make someone other than the Archduke the successor.”
-Just right!
Baek Saha said snapping his fingers.
“okay! That is exactly what the old man wanted to say. Only by pushing for a successor other than the Archduke can our priests overcome this crisis and survive.”
“….”
“Originally the archduke’s support force was so strong that the other two successors had no chance but now the situation has changed.”
“What do you mean?”
In response to Mo Gyeong-un’s question Baek Sa-ha the King of Island Poisons twitched his lips and then spoke in a meaningful voice.
“The game can change depending on your choices.”
