Chapter 317 – 318. Not a Single Step Passes!

North Sea Ice Palace Daejeon

Northern Palace was seated on a throne in the middle of the Great Hall.

What a pleasant thing

There was a blush on her face.

Her expression was completely different from when she usually went around with a cold face.

Buk Gung Yeon was in a good mood now.

It was because after she came to the North Sea Ice Palace, she felt that things were going well.

In the process of recapturing the North Sea Ice Palace, she unintentionally endowed her favor with a central organization called the Sichuan Federation, and she was promised appropriate support.

In addition, the reconstruction plan of the North Sea Ice Palace, which was simply in mind, was also given a proper framework by a man named Jang Seon-woo.

And, above all, the most pleasant thing was selling ice crystals for three with cat’s eye stones.

Even though she only learned martial arts in a remote place, she was not ignorant of the value of the Cat’s Eye.

She was sure

With this cat’s eye and the support of the Sichuan Federation, it would only be a matter of time before the North Sea Ice Palace is rebuilt.

Thinking of the North Sea Ice Palace to be reconstructed, her face lit up and a smile naturally formed on her lips.

How long has it been like that

“Sister! Sister!”

Suddenly, an urgent voice came from outside Daejeon.

Jump

Soon, the door opened and Seolhyang with an urgent expression appeared.

Buk Gung-yeon, who saw her snow-hyang, looked at her with a puzzled look on her face.

She was the Northern Gung-Yeon who found out that Seol-Hyang has a laid-back and easy-going personality through the night.

But when she found herself with her urgent expression on her face, she felt embarrassed.

“What’s going on?”

“It’s… A big deal!

Seolhyang took a deep breath and quickly raised her voice.

“What’s going on?”

After hearing Seolhyang’s words, Bukgungyeon asked her as if she didn’t understand.

What the hell is going on

You mean making a fuss like this?

“The military has appeared outside the Ice Palace!”

Seolhyang patted her chest a couple of times as if frustrated by her Northern Palace Yan’s laid-back attitude before opening her mouth.

“The Army of the North!”

“The Army of the North!?”

Hearing Seolhyang’s words, Bukgungyeon opened her mouth with a surprised look on her face.

She didn’t understand

Didn’t the armies of the north usually stay close to the border and take responsibility for defense?

But how come the army of the north gave up defense and marched to the North Sea Ice Palace in the middle of the North Sea?

“Didn’t you see it wrong?”

“It’s real!”

Seolhyang shouted as if it was unfair at the suspicion of Bukgungyeon.

“I just checked everything from the color of the flag to the markings, just in case.”

“Yes?”

Realizing that Seolhyang’s words were true, Buk Gung-yeon frowned at her.

It was because he was irritated by the unexpected appearance of the Northern Army.

Jump up

Soon, Northern Gongyan raised her body from her throne.

“Let’s go.”

After her words, Bukgungyeon quickly moved on, and Seolhyang followed her.

************

“Are you thinking of rethinking?”

Yiyeon asked the fortune teller again.

“Unfortunately, there is none. We are all people who worship Hyeop.

“It’s funny. You’re crying out in front of me.”

Lee Yeon smiled mockingly and opened her mouth.

“Then I can’t help it either. Don’t blame me.”

“It’s about fulfilling the agreement. How can there be any regrets?”

The lucky man looked at Yiyeon with her straight eyes and opened her mouth.

There was not a single gleam of regret in his eyes.

“You speak fluently.”

“I think it’s because it gets smoother as you get older.”

The lucky man opened his mouth with a light joke.

“Well, I don’t hate it though. At least you seem to have a backbone.”

“Thank you. General, I feel lucky to have you in my eyes.”

The lucky man smiled softly and opened his mouth.

“But the thought is short-lived.”

After hearing the words of the lucky deficit, Yiyeon shook his head slightly and opened his mouth.

“Because he arbitrarily threw countless disciples to the brink of death.”

“Certainly I feel too opinionated.”

After hearing Lee Yeon’s words, Unjak-ja shook his head and opened his mouth.

“So I have one request.”

“Are you blue?”

“Give me time.”

“What time did you mean?”

Yiyeon asked him curiously.

“A time to choose.”

“Hmm, it’s a choice…”

“What I said to the general is my own opinion. I think it’s natural to repay kindness and risking one’s life, but other people may have different opinions. So I’d like to give you a chance to choose. Northern Army It’s about whether to stop or step down.”

The lucky deficit looked at Yiyeon with straight eyes and opened his mouth.

“I have a question.”

“You name it.”

“Why should I listen to your request?

After hearing what the fortune teller said, Lee Yeon opened her mouth as if she was having fun.

“If there is one of the disciples who withdraws, wouldn’t it be a good thing from the point of view of the general?”

“Why?”

“Even though the disciples do not reach the highest level of a general, they are all definitely masters. If they collide with the northern army, it will be easy to get five to sixty per a day, even if it is difficult to get a hundred. If such people get away with a little time Wouldn’t that be a boon for the Northern Army?”

The fortune-teller opened his mouth while looking at Lee Yeon with a calm expression on his face.

“Yes?”

“That’s right. Also, wouldn’t the general feel less uncomfortable?”

“Hmm”

After hearing what the fortune teller said, Yi Yeon stroked his chin as if in agony.

It was because I thought his words were reasonable.

Although the Northern Army is strong, you will have to prepare for considerable damage in case of a head-on collision with them.

In the case of a warrior who has reached the state, even the iron armor is pierced.

“Good night.”

Soon, Yiyeon’s worried mouth opened.

“I’ll give you a moment’s time. Those who are going to step back, step aside. I won’t touch them especially.”

“Thank you, General.”

The fortune teller looked at Lee Yeon and bowed his head deeply.

It must be a courtesy to him who showed his own mercy.

“Huh”

All over the place

After speaking, Lee Yeon went back to the cavalry unit.

Then, looking straight ahead, I waited slowly.

I mean, a part of it will pass.

********

“Heroes of the search party, I have something to tell you.”

After gaining some time from Yiyeon, the lucky man looked back at the search party gathered at the front gate and opened his mouth.

“They say that the Northern Army is now annihilating the North Sea Ice Palace. Not a single one is left behind. And they urge us to get out of the way. They say that if we don’t get out of the way, our safety won’t be guaranteed.”

Unlucky Jeokja opened his mouth as he looked around at the search crew with a calm expression.

“But Bondo refused his offer. He thought that pretending to be ignorant in a position where he was greatly favored by the Ice Palace Lord was against the agreement Bondo pursued. I don’t think it’s something to be forced on. That’s why Bondo wants you to choose.”

The fortune teller spoke in a calm tone.

“Bondo intends to remain until the end and defend the front gate of the North Sea Ice Palace. At least until the people inside the Ice Palace take refuge. But I have no intention of forcing this thought on you. So, please choose. Stay until the end and fight. About whether to do something or step back.”

“…”

“…”

“…”

All the searchers who heard the words of the fortune teller kept their mouths shut.

Everyone is deep in thought.

However, no one could easily come to a conclusion.

It was a matter of life.

Who can easily draw conclusions about this?

“I will.”

Then Cheongsong, who was behind him, raised his hand and opened his mouth.

“You don’t have to push yourself.”

The lucky man looked at him with his pitiful eyes and opened his mouth.

“Cooperation is not something Sasook has in mind. I also have my own agreement.”

Cheongsong looked at the crying man with serious eyes and opened his mouth.

“If I just watched the annihilation of Chebing Palace, which was consistent despite receiving grace, I would regret it for the rest of my life. I don’t want to regret it.”

Cheongsong opened her mouth while looking at the lucky person with eyes filled with the will of marriage.

“I’ll do it too.”

As soon as Cheongsong’s last day was over, Cheong-gil opened her mouth with a heavy voice.

“I don’t want to be an ungrateful beast either.”

That wasn’t all.

“I’ll do it too!”

“Neither do I!”

“I want to repay you!”

“I want to return the favor!”

At the end of Cheong-gil’s words, all the disciples of Cheong-seong raised their hands and expressed their intention to support.

And the fortune-teller who saw it looked at them with a pitiful gaze.

Although he said it, he actually did not want anyone to apply.

Everyone only counts the profit

I didn’t want him to look at something as old-fashioned as the agreement.

However, it seemed that such a wish was not conveyed to the disciples of Cheongseong.

Everyone was just doing their duty.

The lucky man was sad but happy to see them.

It was because I thought that at least the teachings of Cheongseong were not wrong.

“…Stupid guys”

The lucky man wet his eyes slightly and shed hot tears.

“I’ll stay too.”

At that time, one of the Tang family soldiers raised his hand and opened his mouth.

“There is a saying in the Tang family. Grace is doubled and resentment is repaid tenfold.”

The Tang family soldier opened his mouth with his eyes shining.

“It’s time to repay the favor, how can I run away?”

“You’re right!”

“We’ll stay too!”

“I’ll return the favor!”

At the end of his words, everyone shouted.

“…Won’t you regret it?”

The fortune teller asked them again.

“If you run away from here, many will laugh at Danga.”

After hearing his words, the warrior from the Tang family responded calmly.

“I can’t leave my seat even for the honor of the Tang family.”

His eyes soon began to contain the will of marriage.

Those who saw it could feel it.

The fact that they genuinely hope to repay the favor, not simply because of crowd psychology.

“Looks like there are really stupid people on the search party. They make such stupid choices.”

“Doesn’t that also apply to the dojo?”

‘Heh heh heh, that’s right.”

The lucky man laughed cheerfully and then opened his mouth.

Pop

“Unsuccessful.”

Unjakja, who stopped laughing, opened his mouth while looking at Unhye behind him.

“Please speak.”

Unhye opened her mouth with a determined expression on her face.

“Right now we need someone to evacuate the villagers. Can the Army side do that?”

The lucky man looked at her and opened her mouth as if asking for her favor.

Right now, most of Ami’s disciples were carrying iron fragments or doing chores at the smithy.

In this situation, it would be better to ask the villagers to evacuate than to ask them to join the war.

“All right.”

Unhye nodded her head and started to rush towards her forge.

It was because she also recognized that the situation was urgent.

Seeing this, the lucky man nodded his head in satisfaction.

Then he slowly turned and looked straight ahead.

In front, hundreds of cavalry guards watched them.

He must have been waiting for Lee Yeon’s order to charge.

“Whoa”

The fortune teller let out a deep sigh.

It was because I thought that even if things were twisted, they were tightly twisted.

Seuleung

And soon, the lucky man took out a sword from the sword belt hanging from his side.

Then, a pure white blade appeared.

With his sword drawn, the undead began to slowly walk forward.

Chuck

And then he stood in the middle of the front door and pointed his sword straight ahead.

It was his will to never let it pass.

Chuck

At that time, another sword from the side aimed its sword at the cavalry.

The lucky man looked sideways at the owner of the sword.

The sword’s owner was Cheongsong.

Although Cheongsong had an uneasy expression on her face, her eyes were looking straight ahead without wavering.

Chuck

Then another sword was pointed at the cavalry.

This time it was Cheonggil.

He looked at the cavalry with calm eyes and aimed his sword.

Chuck

Chuck

Chuck

Chuck

Chuck

And soon, numerous disciples’ swords were pointed at the cavalry, and the unfortunate man had tears in his eyes.

Those tears were his gratitude to those who gave him according to his own stubbornness.

Bend

Soon after, the lucky man let go of the wet tears and looked at the front with his eyes wide open.

And after filling his history, he shouted at the cavalry.

“You can’t even take a single step out of this place!”

Then his voice began to echo.

“Not even a single step can pass!”

Soon after, the disciples also looked at the cavalry and shouted.

“Looks like you gave me some time,”

Hearing their shouts, Yiyeon sighed calmly.

They didn’t miss a single one.

Lee Yeon thought.

I mean it was a waste of time.
