Chapter 551

551fury. Was there any result??

Rustically decorated interior.

Old objects were placed like scenery in the room. Old tables, dirty teapots, teacups, etc. However, even after many years, everything was neatly maintained, which suggested the frugal nature of the room owner..

Three people were sitting around Datak..

“I heard that King Yeom’s donor passed into nirvana..”

There was sadness in his voice. He was an old monk with a full white beard. The monk's uniform, which was originally a dark ocher color, had faded over time..

“What is nirvana? Sima Liang is not a moderate, so there is no need to elevate him that much..”

One of those sitting around the data table sneered. He was a one-armed Taoist monk with a loose right sleeve. He was an old man who appeared to be about the same age as the old monk. he continued.

“You'd be lucky if you didn't get into a fight with King Yeomra by now..”

Unlike the blunt tone in which he looked at the deceased's misfortune, the old master's eyes showed loneliness. It was the feeling of loss of someone who has lost an old friend..

The old monk also understood that feeling, so he looked into the teacup and smiled faintly..

“……I heard that King Yeom faced Sado alone..”

“Foolish guy. Even though I knew I wouldn't be a match, I acted recklessly..”

“There were young students around. The Sword Saint would have done the same thing..”

“…….”

“…….”

The two old men remained silent for a moment and paid tribute to a military man who lived in the same era..

An unparalleled master who rose to fame as one of the ten best masters of the entire era and dominated the era. King Sima Liang was also their old friend..

Sword Star Jinyangja

Buddha Muheo Daesa

Among the masters of the nine sects who are revered as immortals above the clouds in the folk world, the best masters of Shaolin and shamanism are called Taishan Bukdu..

Geomseong was one of the Ten Lords of the previous generation who retired after enjoying the same era as King Yeom, and Buddha, who was somewhat younger than him, still occupied a place among the Ten Lords..

The giants of the martial arts world are not only inaction but also have great symbolism. Even most martial arts masters would not be able to breathe comfortably in this place..

After finishing the short memorial service, the two people tried to shake off the remnants of their emotions. The reason they gathered here was not to commemorate King Yan..

“The evil deeds of the blood religion have gone too far. I can't sit back and watch any longer..”

“The old faction should have gathered strength a long time ago. I left it to the little ones, but I wonder why they move so slowly... … . When peace lasts so long, the boat gets oily..”

“I also gave the room manager a harsh admonition. I thought about whipping him, but the boy was now close to sixty..”

“Indeed, Buddha has great patience. I came here with several long letters without anyone knowing..”

“Amitabha Buddha…….”

They treat the Shaolin master and the shaman Jang Mun-in as if they were children. It was proof of how high the distribution between the two people was in Moorim..

“I made a call to my close friends in Hwasan, Jongnam, Cheongseong, Jeomchang, Kunryun, and Gongdong. No matter how heavy the assholes are, they will move sooner or later if they receive a warning from their ancestors..”

“Amipah was instructed to send the Four Great Diamonds of the text to receive an answer to the Bangjang incident..”

“The opening will take care of itself. Soon all the old people will gather together..”

“It's been 50 years. This is the first time since the war with the Blood Cult ended.…….”

There was talk coming out of the two people's mouths that they would gather together the old factions representing the political faction and the martial arts faction. If anyone else had said this, it would have been dismissed as absurd, but their conversation was as natural as the atmosphere in the room..

But there were three people sitting around the table..

The two old men who were conversing looked at the man who had not spoken since before..

“How come the governor doesn't say anything??”

In response to Buddha’s question, the man who had been quietly savoring his tea opened his mouth. He was a middle-aged man with cool eyes..

“The opinions of the old group have come together around the two of you, so what does my opinion matter? I was just quietly listening to what my seniors said..”

“……I don't know if that's humility or a sharp point. How can we decide such an important matter among ourselves?.”

Geomsung frowned and said. The look in his eyes as he looked at the middle-aged man seemed somewhat frightening..

‘He seems like a man whose true feelings are unknown..’

Emperor of Manbyeong (萬兵帝), Jinryang.

One of the Ten Masters of Wulin, and a person who has solidified his position as the best scholar in the world that no one can surpass over the past 15 years after taking office as the head of the Heavenly Martial Arts Academy..

In the past, Cheonmuhakgwan was more of an institution for the later exponents of prestigious political factions, such as the Gupa Ilbang and the Five Daesega, to promote friendship and exchange. This was because they did not think that they could learn anywhere else what they had not learned in the monastery..

However, the atmosphere changed when Jin Liang took office as the governor of Cheonmuhak. He immediately took control of the outstanding later exponents from each sect..

As martial arts has also progressed beyond simply promoting friendship, it was natural that outstanding late-stage artists would gather. This was possible because he had both world-class martial arts and reputation..

“What do you mean? How dare I harbor such disrespectful feelings toward you two?.”

Jinryang smiled politely and shook his head. But Geomseong’s frown still didn’t seem to be straightening..

“I know that most of the young warriors in Gupailbang respect you as a teacher. Honey, don’t humble yourself. It is said that rituals are proportional..”

“Heh heh. There is truth in what Geomseong said. Wouldn’t the Lord of the Government have greater influence on young warriors than on us??”

Buljon joined the conversation and tried to soften the somewhat harsh atmosphere..

In fact, the reputation of Cheonmuhakgwanju was not much lower than that of the legendary warriors of Geomseong and Buddha..

It was no exaggeration to say that all of the long-disciples of the Nine-Fail-Il-Bang and the successors of the Five Great Families learned martial arts from the Lord of the Heavenly Arms. This is why the influence of Cheonmu Hak Gwanju was so great on young martial artists..

If the ruler of Cheonmuhak did not agree with the old faction or took an ambiguous attitude, morale could have fallen even before the war began..

“…… I also sympathize with the cause. I will encourage my disciples in the name of Cheonmuhakwan to prevent the spread of blood religion, so you two, please let go of your worries..”

“Hmm. If that's the case…….”

“Amitabha Buddha.”

The two old men finally looked relieved. This was because if the governor of Cheonmuhak had placed a fishtail, he would have been in trouble in many ways..

“Maengju was busy investigating the traces of blood ties left in Akga and could not attend this event, but he agreed to join us..”

After confirming each other's intentions, they nodded. The story moved quickly..

“Except for Cheongeom, who had to assist the Emperor, I sent letters to all the Ten Lords with whom I could communicate..”

These were the words of Buddha.

He had the highest distribution among the current Ten Zones of Murim and had a big plan to gather the Ten Zones in one place..

“You also sent letters to Heuksaryeonju and Chuhongungwi.?”

“yes. The leader actively suggested that we do so. An invitation was sent with the intention of attending the Cheonmu Festival and honoring the event..”

“her! If it really comes, it will be unprecedented..”

“Ambassador. Did you send an invitation to the third child of the Namgung family, who is said to have killed King Chang this time??”

“You mean the Thunder God? Of course. I heard that it was at the Cheongryong Academic Center, so I sent it along with the letter to the Cheongryong Credit Association..”

“Hoo. This is the first time the governor has shown interest. Now that I think about it, was that young man also a graduate of Cheonmuhakgwan??”

“yes. Even when I was attending school, I was an extraordinary student..”

It was a conversation between giants who could move the world with just a few words. There was no light person in any of the stars mentioned..

Once the somewhat important story was over, Geomseong sighed softly and said,.

“In any case, this year's Cheonmu Festival will not end as a joyous event like previous years..”

It was as he said. This year's Cheonmu Festival could no longer be called a festival where the late leaders of the political faction showed off their skills..

It will be a place for the factional martial arts to declare war to suppress blood religion. Emperor Tianwu was the perfect symbol..

“I repeat, the schedule for the Emperor of Heavenly Arms will proceed as is. I can't give up on this much..”

Geomseong and Buljon nodded at the firm words of the Cheonmuhakgwanju..

“I understand. It would look better to declare the subjugation of the blood religion after the end of the Emperor Tianwu..”

“There is no need for the manager to worry..”

Rather, we will hold the Heavenly Wu Festival on a grand scale as if to show off, proving to the world that the power and influence of the factional martial arts faction is alive and well. There was a possibility that Sejak could take advantage of the chaos to come in, but we also planned to take thorough precautions against it..

“……But, will all five university halls be able to gather like in previous years??”

As a result of the events in Akga, a lot of blood was shed between Cheongryonghakkwan and Suzakuhakkwan..

Even if I cannot attend the Cheonmuje, I have no choice but to accept it..

In response to Geomseong's question filled with concern, the head of Cheonmuhak nodded, saying there was nothing to worry about..

“I sent a letter telling them not to be a burden to the Suzaku Academy and the Cheongryong Academy. There will be no disadvantage to them.”

“That's not what I'm saying, I'm just wondering if the meaning of the Emperor of Tianwu will fade if all the five major officials do not come together..”

“hmm.”

The head of Cheonmuhak frowned as if he did not understand what he said..

“Although it may be a bit disappointing, the meaning of Cheonmuje does not change even if some academics do not attend..”

“her…….”

This meant that regardless of whether other academic institutions attended or not, all attention would be focused on Cheonmu Academic Hall..

At first glance, it was a confidence that seemed arrogant, but in reality, the result was so, so Geomseong said nothing more..

On the contrary, the Buddha had a smile on his face as if he was having fun..

“Heh heh. Now that I think about it, there is a disciple of the Sword Saint at the Suzaku Academy.?”

“What is a disciple? I just taught the kid a few moves to kill time..”

Geomsung waved his hand. It was because I did not want to put any unnecessary burden on the disciple I acquired in my later years..

However, on the other hand, it was true that I felt uncomfortable with the head of Cheonmuhak..

‘Just wait and see, you idiot. Soha will show your disciples an example..’

There was also a shaman's main disciple at Cheonmuhakkwan, but he was a swordsman who did not think about it that much. He looked out the window at the setting sun and said.

“The time has already come to this. Let's get up now.”

After the short meeting, the three people stood up..

Sword Saint and Buddha would be working hard to unite the power of the nine factions. The governor of Tianmuhak will also be busy preparing for the upcoming Tianwu Festival..

“Amitabha Buddha. Take a look.”

After seeing off the Buddha, Geomseong and the Lord of Cheonmuhak parted ways at the entrance to Shaolin Temple. Geomseong glanced back at the head of Cheonmuhak and said,.

“Now that Cheongryong Academy has two Ten Master instructors, can we be confident that Cheonmu Hall will win again this year??”

“The level of the academic institution does not suddenly rise just because the level of the instructor is high. The courage, enthusiasm, and effort of students are more important..”

“Anyway, the words are clear. I'll be watching with interest.”

“Please take a look.”

Even Geomseong opened his eyes and left, and Jinryang, the ruler of Cheonmuhak, who was finally alone, walked for a while. Following the mark someone left on you.

A man with black lips was standing at the beginning of a mountain path with a red sunset. An earthworm-like scar was passing around the corner of the mouth, exposed beneath the black lips..

“Lord.”

Although it is clearly an honorific title, the tone of speech does not give the slightest hint of respect. It seemed no different from singing Jeomsoi from a guesthouse..

Even if you search the world, there will be only a few people who can treat the Ten Lords of Wulin and the Lord of Heavenly Martial Arts like that. Moreover, among the instructors at Cheonmuhakkwan, he was the only one in front of me..

However, the head of Cheonmuhak was not angry. He was a generous person to someone with such qualifications and skills..

“Teacher Cheon Moo-gyeol. The business trip took a long time. Was there any result??”

When Cheon Moo-gyeol took off his black lips, the hidden strong impression was revealed. As he raised the corners of his mouth, the scar on his lip twitched..

“Somehow. It wasn't bad.”

It was an insincere answer, but it showed interest in the eyes of the Cheonmuhakgwanju. Because I knew how difficult it would be to get such a satisfactory answer from that man..

no way.

“……Did you find any traces of the blood demon??”

“maybe.”

Now, the answer was almost like speaking informally. However, a smile that could not be hidden appeared on the face of the Cheonmuhakgwanju..

He approached Cheon Moo-gyeol with great strides and said with shining eyes..

“Please tell me in detail. Did you really find traces of the blood demon? Where? Did you see the martial arts performance in person??”

A madness that no one had ever seen flashed in those eyes..

And at that moment, the two people's hair seemed to turn red for a moment in the deepening sunset light..
