< Episode 48 Proposal (2) >
Among the confidants of Huizhou’s third disciple Wi So-yeon the one who stands out in terms of inaction would be none other than Woo Ho-rang the great disciple of King Myeongdo’s Son Yun and the great leader of the Geogeudan.
His inaction was recognized by everyone as it was included in the Five Tigers which are called the best late exponents of the Cheonjihoe.
However among her henchmen the one she confided in the most was a fellow woman Ki Ok-ryeon.
Ki Ok-ryeon was the eldest daughter of Yangam Gokju Gi-hae and was Wi So-yeon’s closest friend and true right-hand man.
-Sigh!
Ki Ok-ryeon lowered the clothes on her upper body and pulled out a needle stuck in the back of So-yeon who was half naked.
The sharp tip of her needle which she pulled out had turned black.
She said “As expected there was still a bit of miasma left. Still seeing as only a portion of the saliva has discolored I think detoxification is almost complete. miss. Are you okay now?”
“Thanks.”
Yangam Gokju was skilled in medicine so Gi Ok-ryeon also inherited that skill.
So she used her acupuncture to quickly expel the remaining poisons that remained in Soyeon’s body.
“I guess the poison of the island poison king is amazing. “In terms of internal strength alone the young lady would be as good as the adult king of island poisons.”
“Maybe not anymore.”
“Ah… you crossed the wall.”
She was truly sophisticated.
On the day they visited Baeksaha the King of Seomdok reached the state of peace.
As a result his importance increased significantly.
If Baek Sa-ha the island poison king who became an expert in Hwagyeong supported them he would have gained a thousand soldiers and ten thousand horses.
But the key was how to attract him.
‘Mokgyeongun…’
It became difficult to directly persuade Baek Sa-ha the island poison king.
Therefore it could be said that Mok Gyeong-un was the only path through which Baek Sa-he could receive support.
This was because Baek Sa-ha took Mo Gyeong-un as his disciple.
As a result the value of wood farming rose significantly.
Mok Gyeong-un was a joint disciple of Amjongju and King Seomdok so if he could receive him as a subordinate he would be able to attract Amjong and Baekga.
I really need to bring him back but I’m worried.
“I’m worried that the second execution will use a male and female.”
“Second Confucius?”
“okay.”
“…Is that because of that?”
“that’s right. “The anger of the second executioner seemed very great.”
“Would you do something outright like that? “To be fair we didn’t do it.”
“If the roots of doubt are deep it becomes impossible to see ahead.”
“That’s true but… haha. I don’t know why this is so crazy. Why did something like that suddenly happen and cause suspicion like this… Huh? Wait a minute… Miss is it possible that this is a secret?”
Ki Ok-ryeon raised a question.
Wei So-yeon’s eyes narrowed at her words.
That’s right Wi Maeng-cheon a confidant of the second executioner Jang Neung-ak was murdered by someone last night.
This made the second executioner very angry.
Even though he was sick Master’s eyes were still wide open so there was no line crossing or major conflict between the three disciples.
But this time the balance was broken.
Secondly due to the nature of the death penalty since he lost his favorite confidant he will seek revenge in some way.
But the important thing here is that this was not their doing.
“Why do you think it’s a secret book?”
“That’s right. Since Wei Mengchen died we are under suspicion from the second Confucius. “If we keep going like this we will definitely crash.”
“So you think it’s a love story?”
“What else can it be if it’s not a book between two people?”
“If this is true… whose work do you think it was?”
Ki Ok-ryeon answered Wi So-yeon’s question with a confident voice.
“Of course it was the work of the Archduke or his henchmen right?”
“Great type?”
“yes. “It’s the only one who benefits the most from this.”
“….”
In response to Ki Ok-ryeon’s words So-yeon placed her chin on the back of her clasped hands.
Just looking at the circumstances there was a high probability that she was the ambassador type as she guessed.
Because they really aren’t.
but
“…Is it really appropriate to be sentenced to death?”
“yes?”
“I think it’s a little different from the Ambassador type.”
“Is it different? There is no reason to do something like this unless you are an archduke. “It must be a move to make us and Second Confucius’ faction fight.”
Wi So-yeon slightly shook her head at Ki Ok-ryeon’s words.
Of course she had a point.
This is because the reason why the second executioner doubted himself rather than the death penalty for the death of his henchman Wei Maeng-cheon overlapped with the reason why he was suspicious of the situation itself.
The reason is
‘Grand Master… Grand Master doesn’t even consider us as competition.’
If that had been the case in the first place it would have been kept in check somehow long ago.
The Ambassador is very thorough so if he thinks he is an enemy he will completely crush him.
However they were just watching as if they were gathering support to become the successor.
It didn’t disturb me in the slightest.
It might be uncomfortable.
‘If the Ambassador had decided to keep us in check he wouldn’t have left us like this until now.’
The metabolic type Na Yulyang is somehow different from an ordinary human being.
When he talked to him he felt uncomfortable and even scared for some reason.
So he had been avoiding meeting Master since he was sick.
This would be the same for the second executioner Jang Neungak.
Excluding Master the person he fears the most is Grand Master.
In response Wi So-yeon cautiously opened her eyes.
“Perhaps a completely unexpected variable occurred….”
-Shudder!
At that time So-yeon above stopped speaking and looked at her somewhere.
Gi Ok-ryeon looked puzzled and asked.
“miss?”
“Something happened outside.”
“Sunday?”
“Extract the remaining needles quickly.”
“Nenet.”
Ki Ok-ryeon hurriedly pulled out all the needles stuck in Wi So-yeon’s acupuncture points.
Wei So-yeon quickly put on her jacket and changed her clothes hurriedly opened the door and went out.
Of course Ki Ok-ryeon followed suit.
Wei So-yeon who appeared in the sound coming from outside could not help but be surprised at the scene unfolding before her eyes.
‘!?’
-puck! thud!
Yang Il the fire chief of Chohae Sword Bang falls down after being hit by a kick from Mok Gyeong-un in an instant.
The same was true for Gi Ok-ryeon who came out after surprised.
Who was Yang Il?
Muwi was the second-highest-ranking master among Wei Xiaoyeon’s henchmen and an expert in the beginning of Chojeongjeong.
How could he be defeated with just one hit?
‘That doesn’t make sense.’
How can this happen?
However someone else caught Ki Ok-ryeon’s eyes.
He is none other than
‘Woo wow brother?’
He was a tiger.
He was seriously injured and was lying covered in blood.
‘Why brother?’
Gi Ok-ryeon who had been secretly in love with him for a long time was startled by this and tried to run out immediately.
Soyeon above her put out her hand and stopped her.
Wi So-yeon who tried to dissuade Ki Ok-ryeon shouted loudly.
“Stop!”
Wi So-yeon’s cry spread loudly.
At her cry Mok Gyeong-un who was clutching Yeop Wi-seon’s neck turned his head.
“iced coffee. “You came out.”
“You… what kind of behavior is this?”
Mok Gyeong-un answered her question by shrugging his shoulders.
“Are you a loser? “I just came because the lady called me but they stopped me.”
He pointed with his eyes one by one from Yang Il who was unconscious on the floor to Yeo Wei Xian whose neck was being held in his hands.
“Kekkek.”
His face was so red and painful that it felt like it was about to explode.
Soyeon said pointing at him with her finger.
“Let go of that hand right now.”
“iced coffee. This one?”
Mok Gyeong-un smiled at these words and relaxed his grip.
Then Yeop Wiseon fell to the floor hitting her buttocks.
Perhaps because her throat was grabbed and she was suffocated Yeop Wiseon coughed harshly and tried to say something to Wei Soyeon.
“Cluck cough… ah… baby… cough… this guy…”
-Park!
Mok Kyung-un lightly hit the nape of his neck.
Then as if her brain had been shocked her stomach fell forward and collapsed.
“What are you doing?”
“stop.”
Wi So-yeon stopped Gi Ok-ryeon who couldn’t hold back her anger at the sight of her colleagues being treated and tried to leave.
Then she spoke to Mok Gyeong-un.
“You’ll have to explain well what happened. Otherwise no matter how much it is you I won’t be able to forgive you.”
Mok Gyeong-un scratched her head as if embarrassed by her words.
“This is really embarrassing. “I came just to see the young lady but these two people stopped me saying they couldn’t let me meet again.”
“I blocked you?”
“yes.”
“Why them?”
“That’s what I want to ask. “It was his master who called him.”
“….”
Soyeon’s eyes sharpened as she felt something pinching her.
Although she was originally very bold in front of herself she was strangely different from before.
It wasn’t about being bold in front of her stronger opponent but really coming from confidence in herself.
This left her with doubts.
It seems like this man has taken another step forward in the meantime.
‘what?’
Above Soyeon couldn’t hide her curiosity.
Even so she was quite surprised that her martial arts skills were much stronger than when she saw them in the poetry report.
But inaction has developed again?
While I was amazed at the rapid progress Mok Gyeong-un said.
“If you really have a hard time believing it wouldn’t it be okay to wake them up again and ask them?”
“….”
Seeing that they are talking like this it seems clear that they have prevented tree cultivation.
But the reason seemed to be that.
Wei So-yeon pointed to Woo Ho-rang who was lying on the floor and said with a gesture of her head.
“Why is Great Lord Wu looking like that?”
“This person? “He fought with me.”
“what?”
Wei Soyeon frowned at those words.
What do you mean fighting?
“Is that possible? Great Lord Wu received my order and went to get you. There is no way he would fight you without my command.”
Moreover Woo Horang knew the importance of tree cultivation.
He knows better than anyone else that only by getting him will the landscape of the successor competition change so why does he go and fight with Mo Kyung-un?
That didn’t make sense.
If that’s the case then surely
“…Did you challenge Master Wu to a fight first?”
“It can’t be. “This person asked me to do business for two reasons.”
“Two reasons?”
“yes.”
“What is that?”
“The first reason is that he has a pact with this person so he can’t tell you and the second reason is that this priest here got into trouble because of me so he said he needs to take revenge.”
Ki Ok-ryeon shouted with a flushed face at Mok Gyeong-un’s words.
“plural? What nonsense! “Why would Brother Wu disobey the young lady’s orders and do such a thing to you…?”
“Okryeon. stop.”
“miss. But that person is now falsely slandering Brother Wu…”
Before she could finish speaking Mo Kyung-un intervened.
“If you really don’t believe it wouldn’t it be okay to wake this person up and ask him?”
“what?”
“You said you wouldn’t believe whether this person was the one who started the fight or not?”
Ki Ok-ryeon shouted angrily at Mok Gyeong-un’s words.
“Do you know why I don’t believe you? It only makes sense that Brother Wu a member of the Five Tigers would be defeated by someone like you…”
“Okryeon!”
Wei So-yeon eventually raised her voice.
Sensing that she was feeling uncomfortable Ki Ok-ryeon trembled with her reddened face and then closed her mouth.
“I’m sorry.”
“Calm down and step back. “Because I know how you feel.”
As she was the only one who knew that Ki Ok-ryeon was in love with her friend she patted her shoulder as if comforting her and told her to step behind her.
Looking at them Mok Gyeong-un shook his head.
Seeing this Soyeon opened her mouth in a cold voice.
“What kind of attitude is that now?”
“Attitude?”
“Your attitude now seems as if you are laughing at me.”
“Hmm. Rather it made me feel more confident.”
“assurance?”
“yes.”
“What are you sure about?”
In response to Wei So-yeon’s question Mok Gyeong-un smiled and said.
“I just thought she didn’t have any luck with her subordinates but other than that the lady herself seems to treat her subordinates really well.”
“How dare you!”
Gi Ok-ryeon furious at the thought that she had insulted the lady who was her lord raised her voice again.
It was that moment.
-Sureuk!
‘!?’
Mu Qingyun’s new form dispersed like fog and disappeared.
At the same time with a surprised expression So-yeon hurriedly turned her body and stretched out her hand.
-puck!
“evil!”
Before her hand could even touch it Ki Ok-ryeon heard a dull sound her eyes rolled back and her body fell forward.
Mok Gyeong-un was standing behind Ok-ryeon as she fell holding his head up.
She said with a hint of disappointment as she clucked her neck and clicked her tongue.
“For some reason you ignore everything your master says.”
“you….”
“It’s still a good thing. “I wanted to have a conversation alone.”
Wei So-yeon opened her mouth with her surprised eyes looking at her smiling neck.
“…How do you know how to do Myeonghyeonsui and Moonwalk?”
The high-speed movement method that Mok Kyung-un had just used.
If his eyes were not wrong it was the Great Master Na Yulyang’s German text Gyeongsin method Myeonghyeonsuwolbo (明顯水越步).
