Chapter 350
350fury. proven method
It wasn't until dawn that Seolryonghwi was shown to his room..
“You can use this room..”
The room was large enough to accommodate dozens of people, and there wasn't a single item that looked valuable. It seemed to say how much the owner values his guests..
“If you need anything, you can always shake the bell..”
“i get it.”
“If you need a bath attendant…….”
“I don't need you, so go away..”
Shi Fei bowed politely and retreated..
Seolryonghwi looked around the room for a moment and then sat down on the bed. There was no sign of eavesdropping..
“Phew… … . I'm running out of energy..”
I had just attended a banquet..
I was introduced to the adults of the Seol family one by one by Seol Soo-ryeon, made eye contact with them, and had to act out Seol Ryong-hwi in front of them..
Situations where a momentary mistake can lead to dire consequences.
Even if it was a white water dragon, I couldn't let go of the tension..
“Still, it was quite useful..”
Baek Soo-ryong relaxed his stiff neck from side to side..
A light smile appeared on the cold lips. Just by changing my facial expression, my impression changed significantly..
[……He was good at acting too. How many times have I fretted?.]
The Changryongshin sword placed on one side of the bed trembled. Her voice echoed in Baek Soo-ryong’s head..
Baek Soo-ryong said with a grin..
“that? There are ways.”
A person's temperament is not easy to change. This is because it is greatly influenced by one’s natural disposition and the environment in which one was raised..
Baek Su-ryong's personality, always observing and analyzing his surroundings, was very different from the indifferent and bold Seol Ryong-hwi..
Nevertheless, Baek Soo-ryong was able to play Seolryong-hwi without difficulty..
There was a secret here.
“Among the people I know, there is one personality that matches Seolryonghwi's..”
A cold, indifferent man who only says what is necessary and rarely changes his facial expression other than narrowing his eyebrows..
“I acted while thinking about how that guy would say and act..”
The three princes of the Namgung family, which can be said to be the most prestigious family in Murim..
Since Baek Soo-ryong had always kept an eye on Nam Gung-su, it wasn't difficult to imitate him..
‘That bastard. You won't be doing anything weird just to get revenge.?’
Baek Soo-ryong thought of Nam Gung-su for a moment and shook his head to shake off his random thoughts..
“Anyway, today I see that in the Seol family, the power of Seol Su-ryeon is absolute..”
[I saw it that way too.]
Even though it was late at night, Seol Su-ryeon held a banquet to welcome Seol Ryong-hwi, and all the major figures of the Seol family participated..
-He is Shinwoo’s son. From now on, treat me like you would a mugol..
With her words, Seolryonghwi’s status was decided. no one objected.
Even the elders of the Seol family, who seemed to be the same age as Seol Su-ryeon, treated Seol Ryong-hui kindly..
Rather, they seemed to be paying more attention to Seol Su-ryeon..
“Among them, there were those who learned magic arts..”
Traces of magic training were felt in some of the leaders of the Seol family..
Although he was hiding it in his own way, it was impossible to deceive the White Water Dragon even if other people did not know..
[That's foolish. Was it not enough to just make a deal with the blood cult?…….]
Blue Dragon God Sword muttered in a sad voice..
Not only did he trap the Lord of the Ox Palace in order to gain power, but he also mastered magic techniques that should not be touched. She did not understand the foolishness of warriors..
“Because there is no end to human greed.”
Baek Soo-ryong had seen countless warriors who had learned magic in his previous life. It was rare for even those with strong mental strength to resist the temptation of magic. And most of their endings were miserable..
Baek Soo-ryong muttered as he looked around the luxuriously decorated room..
“To my eyes, this place already looks like a blood cult..”
Seolsu- ryun may have joined hands with the Blood Cult to become the owner of the North Sea Ice Palace, but if time passes like this, the Blood Cult will eventually devour the North Sea Ice Palace..
[So, what were you planning on doing??]
“All rotten parts must be cut out. Masters of Seolga who have learned Seolsuryun, Seolmugeol, and magic arts. All those related to blood religion. I don't know how much will be left if you cut it all out... … Still, I have to do it.”
White Water Dragon's eyes sank coldly..
Revenge isn't the only goal.
If you do not stop the resurgent blood cult, people around you will suffer in this life as well..
“What happened at the banquet hall earlier. I remembered it all?”
[Of course. close your eyes.]
Wow!!
As Changryong Shingeom unfolded his technique, the scene he had seen in the banquet hall was once again recreated before Baeksu-ryong’s eyes..
[You will be able to adjust the viewpoint as you wish. The method is…….]
‘I know.’
After dealing with dreams many times, I got used to it. Baek Soo-ryong crossed the banquet hall spread out amid the magic and approached Seol Soo-ryun..
Seol Soo-ryun was talking to a middle-aged man with a horse-like face, and the man looked a bit nervous..
-A delegation from our school will arrive soon. Is the answer ready??
-We're continuing to put pressure on the palace lord, so don't fret..
-If Binggoong decides not to work with our school,…….
-I didn't say that couldn't be the case. You don't trust me?
-……no. However, because Eunhwiryeong was so stubborn,…….
- There is nothing to worry about. The warriors of the North Sea will advance to the central plains together with Gyo. I myself will lead them.
-……I will only believe in Lord Taesanggung..
During the banquet, I was busy saying hello here and there, so I had no choice but to miss the Lunar New Year retreat..
Instead, Baek Soo-ryong asked Changryong Shingeom to record everything that happened in the banquet hall using magic..
-It may be presumptuous, but is it certain that the Confucius named Seolryonghui is of Seol family blood??
-I'm sure. They are my flesh and blood..
-If that Confucius knew about the relationship between Bing Palace and our school, he wouldn't cause trouble.…….
Seol Su-ryeon smiled brightly at the man who looked worried..
-For that part, I made you drink the precious tea given by the school, so you don't have to worry..
-……If so, I'm relieved..
-You worry too much. I guess I did it clumsily.
-haha…….
Baek Soo-ryong memorized in detail the face of the man on the horse who was talking to Seol Soo-ryeon..
‘He was planted by a blood cult..’
I expected there would be at least one person in the snow family..
There's no way the blood religion would just sit by and watch while providing so much money and supplies..
-How is the atmosphere at the school these days? I've been hearing bad news occasionally lately..
-It's just a minor noise. There is no problem preparing the loan.
There was nothing more to be learned from the conversation between the two people..
Really important stories would have been divided into parts or moved to a different location and told separately..
In addition to them, Baek Soo-ryong carefully observed the conversations and actions of other people in the banquet hall..
Thanks to this, I was able to see things I couldn't see when I was in the banquet hall in person..
‘good. This is enough.’
After a while, White Water Dragon woke up from the spell and slowly opened his eyes..
However, Changryongshingeom, who saw his eyes, trembled and fled..
[Your eyes... … Shining evilly!]
Baek Soo-ryong said with a grin..
“I've decided what to do next.”
A concrete plan appeared in my mind: how to overthrow the Xue family that had ruled the North Sea for decades..
* * *
Five days have passed since Seolryonghui arrived at the North Sea Ice Palace..
During that time, Seolryonghui met and formed friendships with many people..
Even those who were wary of Seolryonghwi at first gradually relaxed their minds..
“Seolryonghwi, that friend. Aren’t you really polite??”
“I also had a conversation yesterday. It was very impressive..”
“It is truly the Hongbok of the original family..”
“It's a pity that it came a little late, but…….”
“He has such strong martial arts skills and good morals... … . It's a bowl that would have been enough to make Sogungju.…….”
Some people made remarks that crossed the line and were met with glares from those around them..
“fizzle! Why am I saying such a thing if it falls into the ears of Prince Sogung?.”
“Yes, I made a mistake. Please pretend you didn't hear it..”
“There is a rumor that Prince Sogong, who is on probation, is grinding his teeth..”
“Inhale……!”
However, public opinion increasingly favored Seolryonghui..
In particular, young warriors who had been persecuted by Seol Moo-geol were very dissatisfied..
“It would have been better if Brother Seolryonghui had been the lord of the small palace.…….”
“This is unreasonable. Shouldn't the two of them compete for the position of the oxbow lord??”
“I will accept it well. The result is obvious…….”
In fact, Seol Ryong-hwi himself did not openly reveal his greed for the position of Sogungju like he did with Seol Su-ryun..
However, those with keen insight began to notice an unusual trend in the Seol family's successor structure..
‘There's a precedent, so there's nothing we can't do.’
‘If only the Lord of the Grand Palace makes up his mind.…….’
The unexpected appearance of Jamryong began to cause a stir in the Seol family..
This trend was also heard in the ears of Seol Moo-geol, who was on probation in his room..
“How dare that bastard!”
Seol Moo-geol was informed of the fact by his confidants, but he was in a situation where he could not go out because he was on probation..
Part of me wanted to run out and kill Seol Ryong-hwi right away, but I couldn't do this or that because of Seol Soo-ryun's strict order that he would never let him go if he violated his discipline..
“There's a rumor going around in the family, but my great-aunt is just watching.?”
“……You didn't say anything else..”
Seolsu-ryun did not react at all even after hearing the rumors. Instead, he quietly stood by and inflated the rumor even more..
‘If the child comes to his senses at this opportunity, it's good, but if he never comes to his senses, it's good.…….’
A smile formed on Seolsu-ryeon’s lips. All she had to do was choose.
However, Seol Soo-ryeon could not have imagined that Seol Ryong-hwi, whom she considered the family's hongbok, would bring disaster to the Seol family..
At that time, Seolryonghwi was meeting with the man on the horse who had been chatting with Seolsuryun at the banquet..
“It's an honor to meet you. This is Seolryonghwi..”
“……This is Majungcheon. Confucius wanted to meet me.?”
Ma Zhongcheon looked at Xue Longhui with a puzzled expression..
A young man suddenly appears in the Xue family and threatens the succession structure..
The extraordinaryness was surprising, but the fact that he was secretly summoned like this was completely unexpected..
Seolryonghui nodded calmly..
“yes. I wanted to meet you separately in a quiet place..”
“Let me ask you why..”
The two made an appointment outside the realm of the Seol family and had a secret meeting. It was Seolryonghwi’s request..
“I have always been interested in blood religion..”
“Hoo…….”
Ma Zhongcheon looked at Xue Longhui with an expression of interest..
Are you saying he already noticed the relationship between himself and Seol Su-ryeon??
It was only a few days ago that we arrived at the North Sea Ice Palace, but it was a great feat..
‘There's nothing wrong with making friends..’
He was a person who could become the next Sogung lord if Seolmugeol was successful..
The North Sea Ice Palace will be absorbed into the blood religion in the future, but until then, it seemed like a good enough word to use..
“What part of our school are you interested in??”
“I am interested in how to eradicate it..”
“……yes?”
The moment he asked back, wondering if he had heard wrong, Seolryonghui stretched out his hand like a thunderbolt and grabbed Ma Jungcheon's neck..
“Big, big! What is this?……!”
Ma Zhongcheon opened his eyes and glared at Seolryonghui with an angry face..
“I can't understand what's going on?”
Seolryonghwi’s mouth twisted and drew an arc. It was a smile full of uneasiness, putting to shame the rumor that he was expressionless..
“Me, if you touch me you will regret it. I don't know what the purpose is, but I dare to go to this school.…….”
at that moment.
Seolryonghwi's white hair began to turn red from the tips..
Sssssssut…….
Soon, her hair, completely red, fluttered in the air, and her jewel-like red eyes stared at Ma Jung-cheon..
“Yeo, Yeo, Yeokcheon, Shin……!”
Ma Jung-cheon's eyes widened in astonishment, and there was fundamental fear. My teeth chattered randomly and my whole body shook..
“Who do you think I am??”
Baek Soo-ryong let go of his hand that was clutching Ma Jung-cheon’s neck..
Ma Jung-cheon then knelt down and hit his head on the floor..
Cooung!
If the sound had not been set up in advance, the sound would have echoed outside. Ma Zhongcheon shouted, blood pouring from his forehead..
“Meet the noble person of our school!”
A method that has already been proven many times.
In front of Baek Su-ryong, who revealed his reverse heavenly skill, Ma Jung-cheon fell flat and bowed his head..
‘I heard this method also works well for blood cultists..’
