Chapter 386 – Chapter 78 (1)
The Moorim League Headquarters campsite.
“Fungun God Dragon Jincheon?”
“Really!?”
“It’s the wind god dragon!”
“There are also six beautiful goddesses!”
Noisily noisily–
Jincheon and his party, who made their presence known by helping the warriors of the Murimmaeng, who were in danger of annihilation by falling into the enemy’s trap, were attracting everyone’s attention.
“I heard that all of the guys who came back alive use strong energy?”
“What? Ganggi? Then everyone is said to be Hwagyeong-level masters?”
“Are you saying that all 10 of us are at least Hwakyung level masters…!”
The warriors, who were freed from the trap by Jincheon, had already spread rumors throughout the campsite of the Murim League, explaining the activities of Jincheon and his party.
“Uh…?”
Among them, the warriors belonging to the northern palace felt something strange.
“What’s the matter?”
The others who were by his side tilted their heads rather at the reaction of the warriors belonging to the northern palace.
“No…Something…”
“I’m sure there was a strong feeling of violence in the past…?”
They could not hide their wonder at the appearance of the past, where they were building an invisible wall to prevent anyone from coming by their side, and the present appearance, which had become extremely soft.
The Jincheon party, which became a topic of discussion for so many warriors, headed to the huge tent where the leaders were gathered.
Due to security concerns, Jincheon’s party entrusted their weapons to the warriors guarding the tent and went inside.
“Nice to see some familiar faces.”
Seol Ha-yoon, who is her own female and still dominates Danmok-yeol.
Footnotes of the Northern Palace.
Ambassador Hyeonneung and military leader Jegal-yu.
And Dokgo Yak-ran, who has a complex and subtle expression toward himself, and Jegal-jin, who does not hide his warlike eyes.
Jincheon held his arms, bowed his head lightly, and greeted everyone.
“It’s been a while, Jincheon.”
“I’m glad you’re alive.”
First, Dan Mok-yeol, who listened to the instructions of Hyeonneung and Seol Ha-yoon, was greeted by Jincheon.
The atmosphere softened as the heads of the Bukcheongung, who knew the power of Jincheon, also greeted with brighter faces.
“I heard that everyone uses strong energy?”
“To think that the number of masters at the Hwagyeong level has increased by ten. I guess I’ll be able to breathe a little more now.”
“About breathing? The war situation itself has turned to our side.”
Those who had no ill feelings towards Jincheon and the footnotes of the Bukcheongung were mixed and chatted in a voice full of relief that the joining of Jincheon and his party would be of great help to the Murimmaeng in every way.
However, Namgung Sang-hyeon, who is young but able to be here thanks to the position of the head of household, interrupted the progress of the story in a gentle atmosphere.
“The atmosphere is strange. Doesn’t it seem like they’ve been accepted as Murimmaeng?”
“Hmm? Of course we have to join the Murimmaeng, right?”
When a middle-aged man tilted her head as if asking why she said something obvious, Namgung Sang-hyun opened his mouth as if it were natural.
“I heard that he went missing after the raid of the Pacheonhoe.”
“Of course, the attack of the Pacheonhoe is strong…”
A footnote from the Northern Palace tried to tell us that the attack of the Pacheonhoe was very strong at the time, but that was not what Namgung Sanghyeon was trying to say.
“I’m not trying to judge the strength of the attack. It must have been no ordinary attack since everyone in the Northern Heavenly Palace took refuge like this. But don’t you think it’s strange that they joined so late?”
He went through a lot of political problems while ascending to the position of the head of household, so Baek Cheong-ha protested against everyone in a fit of anger at his appearance, which led everyone to feel a sense of doubt.
“At that time, the raid of the Pacheonhoe chasing us was so terrible. Many people were injured, and we had to run away without knowing where we were, let alone the direction.”
Namgung Sang-hyeon, who harbors a vendetta against Baek Chung-ha, but learned to hide her feelings while going through political troubles as explained above, slightly frowned at her, then opened them again.
“But even so, it’s too late. If someone had sent someone to inform them of their situation, we would have sent support as well.”
Although he didn’t say it directly, he questioned Jincheon’s unnatural behavior and made everyone question whether he had surrendered to the Pacheonhoe.
Of course, Sanghyeon Namgung, who is in communication with Pacheonhoe, knew that Jincheon and his party did not betray him.
“Hmm… That’s definitely a bit unnatural.”
“But Jincheon could betray me…”
“Haven’t notables who thought they couldn’t betray already betrayed?”
The number of leaders of the Moorim Maeng was smaller than expected, because those who were called famous people surrendered to the Pacheonhoe.
For those who felt the addictive pleasure of the illegal brothel provided by Pacheonhoe, the forced ascetic life was unbearable.
Pacheonhoe promised to make them feel the pleasure again if they surrendered to those who used illegal brothels.
Having lived a long ascetic life, thinking only of martial arts training, they could not overcome the wave of pleasure that burst once.
In addition, there were those who surrendered finely, and they committed acts of betrayal, such as leading the warriors and intentionally pushing them into a trap, and went over to the Pacheonhoe.
Now they have become executives of the Pacheonhoe, and they have become villains who casually kill their alumni for their own pleasure.
Given the circumstances, if a frivolous person like Jincheon were captured by the Pacheonhoe, wouldn’t it be very likely that he would surrender?
“It’s definitely a situation, so I don’t think there’s anything wrong with being careful.”
Jegal-jin, who had an instinctive hostility toward Jin-cheon, who had ruined his plan, expressed his agreement by stepping into Namgung Sang-hyeon’s opinion.
‘A guy I don’t like. I want to kill him right away, but I can’t act carelessly.’
This is because he, who is planning to become the leader of the Murim League by using this war, must always be strong and keep his center to earn people’s trust.
“Jincheon felt the existence of the Pacheonhoe from long ago and investigated it.”
“I believe Jinchun is violent, but he will not betray you.”
Frankly, Jegalyu, who thought that Jincheon had betrayed him, deliberately gave a favorable opinion when the neutrality was about to disappear as the atmosphere turned to a bad side, and Dan Mok-yeol, who was instructed by Seol Ha-yun, also insisted that he would not betray.
It made a lot of noise because of Jincheon’s betrayal, but I watched their quarrel as if looking down from the sky.
– Whoa… Master, if I keep going like this, I’ll take up my time.-
-I’ll adjust it properly.-
In the end, Seo Yu-ran sighed in frustration and opened her mouth to end this useless fight that only eats up time.
“Everyone, wait a moment.”
“Hmm?”
When the Silver Sword Goddess, a woman who was always wearing a veil and whose identity was unknown, opened her mouth, all of her eyes focused on her.
Flutter –
And when she threw off her veil, everyone’s eyes widened in astonishment.
“That…Sword post!?”
“A sword fight!?”
“The Swordswoman is the Silver Sword Goddess!? This…Is this…!”
Yukmi Shinnyeo, known as the women of Jincheon.
One of them, the Silver Sword Goddess, is Seo Yu-ran after the sword?
Jegal Jin, who was looking for the whereabouts of swordswoman Seo Yu-ran, who showed great success in the fight against Pacheonhoe in her previous life, opened her mouth at an unprecedented situation.
‘Why is Seo Yu-ran after the sword… !?’
He knows… No, Seo Yu-ran, the swordsman known to all Murim people, is a warrior who can be said to be the representative of a political faction, though he is stiff and obedient.
Seo Yu-ran opened her mouth to immediately remove the point that everyone doubted Jincheon, eating up time without fussing, and causing problems later.
“I learned that there is a dark force in the battle between the Northern Heavenly Palace and the Southern Palace.”
It was a story that everyone knew by now.
“But at that time, everyone thought it was the work of the Demonic Cult, and I couldn’t even imagine that there would be a dark force. I expected that even if I insisted on investigating the dark force in that situation, it would not be effective.”
She continued to speak quickly before everyone questioned them.
“In addition, the problem that the face is too well known got in the way of the investigation alone. At that time, I thought about hiding my identity.”
Subsequently, Seo Yu-ran explained that she did not stop at simply hiding her identity, but also cooperated with Jin-cheon, who, like herself, was suspicious of the existence of the dark force.
Deliberately becoming one of Jincheon’s women, she succeeded in completely erasing her suspicions of being Geomhu Seo Yu-ran.
“But why didn’t Jincheon return to the Jeongmu-maeng even though he was established as an important person in the Northern Palace?”
“If the Northern Heavenly Palace first captured the power of darkness, she was to prepare for the case when the government officials did not believe it. Originally, it was planned to reveal her identity at that time.”
A plausible answer immediately jumped out at Zhuge Liu’s sharp question.
By the way, this is not a lie, because it was actually planned to be used.
“And the reason for being late is, as I said before, that we ran away recklessly into the deep forest without knowing our location.”
Seo Yu-ran took a break and looked at Sang-hyeon Namgung with sharp eyes.
While looking at Baek Cheong-ha and Seo Yu-ran with her dissatisfied eyes, he unknowingly lowered his gaze to those eyes.
“In that fight, I gained the beginning of realization. Based on that realization, I trained everyone, and it was later than expected because I was recovering from my injury and training at the same time.”
“Oh oh…”
“As expected, it’s a sword.”
“It’s noble for the well-being of Moorim rather than your own fame or reputation…”
There are too many things Seo Yu-ran has shown so far to question if this is true.
A true Moorim person who makes everyone feel the firm trust even in the midst of shaking trust as the famous people betrayed them.
Of course, being a woman, there was no way I could enjoy illegal brothels, which also played a part.
“I swear in the name of Swordsman Seo Yu-Ran. Jin Cheon will never betray you.”
This was the decisive blow.
Those who raised objections to Seo Yu-ran’s confident remarks have completely disappeared.
This was the value of the name Geomhu Seo Yu-ran.
“This is true, I wanted to hide it as much as possible for the honor of Swordsman, but I can’t help it. Thank you for your hard work, Swordsman.”
“You also worked hard. Keep working hard.”
This was the decisive blow.
Contrary to what was known to the world, Jincheon bowed respectfully and the swordsman accepted it, and the word betrayal disappeared in an instant.
