Chapter 200 – King Yan’s Disciple 2 (27)

“Ugh… Did I overdo it yesterday?”

I returned to Zhuge Dynasty’s Wuhan Manor and spent the night.

It must have been due to the effects of combat sleep, but since my back was still sore, it seemed like I had used up more stamina than I thought.

If you think about it, he had to deal with as many as five people at the same time.

The naked bodies of clean courtesans attacked me from all directions, and I took them down one by one with all my heart.

The courtesans gathered at Hwahuiru had quite strong sexual energy, but they did not regain their senses until they were all defeated.

In some ways, isn’t this something similar to the coin attack?

However, the treatment was too easy to say that it could be solved by hugging a lot of women.

“Haaam.”

I yawned widely, washed my face with cleansing water, and came out of the room.

I don’t know why, but it seems like the number of Zhuge family warriors waiting for me to come out has increased?

In fact, there were three more people than the last time I visited Hwaheeru.

“What’s going on? A strange guy came here like last time.”

“Han Sohyeop, is it true that you were with the five temptresses of Ihwaru yesterday?”

“A fairy? I’m not sure about that, but I interacted with five people.”

To be honest, I didn’t have time to interact while hearing the names.

I think all I could think about was wanting to vomit out my positive energy into the strong negative energy of courtesans.

“There are five nymphs in Ihwaru, and it is said that if you spend the night with one of them, no man will come out on foot the next day. They are called temptresses because they suck men’s dick. Yesterday, a small girl spent the night with the five of them.”

“I’m not sure if she’s a temptress or not. To me, she was just a courtesan passing by.”

“Ohhh…!!!”

I think I defeated the mid-boss without even realizing it.

It would have been nice if a quest had come out at a time like this, but there has been no news since strengthening the 6-star Yeomyeom Magick.

Wouldn’t the next step be learning the five senses? Still, Master is giving me a goal that is clearer than the rest of the world.

I avoided the warriors and went to Master’s room.

I can sense a presence inside, so it looks like Master is up.

“Master. Did you cough?”

“Okay. It looks like you overexerted yourself quite a bit. Are you feeling okay?”

“I overdid it a bit. I was tired.”

“Yes. Still, I will go to the mountain to practice this afternoon.”

“I understand, Master. I will finish what I have to do in the morning.”

Even if all you have to do is find a simple and easy-to-learn internal technique.

For that, I visited Zhuge Xian’s room.

“Is Zhuge Soje inside?”

I asked the servant waiting outside the door.

“Yes. Miss, a small group has come.”

“Please come in.”

The servant gently opened the door, and inside was a neatly dressed Zhuge Xian.

“Han Sohyeop, what brought you here?”

“Jegal Xiaoze, may I ask you a favor?”

“Thanks to the old King Yeom, we have also rescued the body of the white monster, so we should give you all we can. Tell me.”

“Aren’t there any easy to learn neigong techniques? I hope it’s easy for women to learn.”

“Why do I suddenly need something like that when I am learning new martial arts from the elder King Yeom? Are you planning to give it as a gift to the courtesans?”

“No. I have personal use for it. It’s not that advanced of a mind technique, just something that’s easy to learn.”

“I understand. I’ll get you a good one rather than the unknown psychic method that’s being spread around the streets.”

“I will only trust Zhuge Xiaoze.”

“Yes. Then I’ll see you when we eat.”

I talked briefly with Zhuge Xian and went out again.

This time, I saw four people from Hwanggeommun that I had not seen in a long time.

“Yutek small cooperative.”

“A small group of people.”

Yutaek lowered her head as she grabbed me.

“What about academics? Since you are a person who uses your body, it won’t be easy to use your brain, right?”

“It’s hard to do alone, but with the four of us doing it, I think it’s okay. I’m trying to accept Zhuge Zhuangzi’s teachings as much as possible.”

After finishing the sparring that day, Yu Taek decided to raise Hwanggeommun again.

So, before she went to Namgung Sega, she was learning the knowledge to run a sect from Zhuge Seonyu.

It was nice to see the four people moving forward without showing the dark image they had when they lost both Munju and Hyeongjae.

“Did you hear about that small cooperative over there?”

But Yutaek spoke to me carefully.

“What’s the story? I hope it’s not just a rumor.”

I remembered the last time I suffered because of spreading a rumor.

“It is said that the King of Tao is coming to Wuhan with his disciples.”

“It will take a while to get here from Paengga.”

“I happened to stop by the Shaolin Temple and heard that the elder Yanwang is staying in Wuhan, so I don’t know if he will come sooner than I thought.”

“Is that so? I will tell Master.”

If I meet King Tao, will I meet three of the current seven kings of Murim?

I parted ways with Hwanggeommun’s disciples and went to Master’s residence.

Master was spending time drinking tea in his room, and it was refreshing to see him drinking constantly.

“Master, have you heard that the old man is coming to Wuhan?”

“This is my first time hearing this. Why is he coming?”

“I didn’t hear that either.”

“You’re probably not coming to see me, and there must be a reason.”

I know that Master is close to the old Sword King, but I don’t know much about his relationship with the other Seven Kings.

“Do you not interact much with other people?”

“Yes. We are not enemies, but there are many people who want to make us enemies, so I am reluctant to meet them.”

“There will be talk about who is the best in the world.”

“Being number one in the world at this age doesn’t mean much. Just get a nice star and meet a pretty woman when you’re young. You can be called a high-class courtesan.”

Master spoke as if he were telling the truth of life.

But if the place you eventually reach is a high-class courtesan, is it similar to now, so does it need a special title?

“But if you want to meet a courtesan, isn’t money more important than her nickname?”

“Money follows you if you have a nickname. Because you have a nickname, you can spend money even if you don’t have money.”

Does it feel like a credit loan? Even if it is difficult to get the money back, I will gladly lend it to you if I can get help from King Yeom even just once.

In that sense, I think it’s a good thing to have a star.

“Master, but if you get a nickname before Yongbongbimuje, something strange will happen.”

“There is a high possibility that you will be lecherous. Isn’t the only thing you did outside being a bitch?”

As Master said, most of my rumors were like that.

In its own way, it is being visited at Giru as an extension of training, but who will accept it?

And if you make a mistake, you could end up in the same direction as the evil spirit who practices chaeum tonics.

It’s just easier for those who like stomas.

“Still, I managed to wipe out one wild vegetable.”

“The other one will be fresher.”

Among the seven kings’ disciples, I am the one with the strangest behavior, so I would be the perfect person to talk about.

“I don’t think this is the time to just practice.”

“Don’t you have to train getting to Giru?”

“It happens again.”

“And people don’t know your skills yet. Once you reveal your power, there will be no equal.”

“So I guess I should train harder?”

“Okay. When the King of Dao comes to the manor, get your skills tested.”

“In that case, I think I’ll need Yeonyeom Shingong’s Five Will as my secret weapon.”

Master smiled and drank tea as if he was satisfied with my passion for learning.

*

‘If we continue living like this, will we be able to increase the assimilation rate?’

Han Xian thought that a 100% assimilation rate would be easily achieved, but it seemed impossible to achieve it by just training and going to the trail repeatedly.

After Ihwaru, I went to Sihwaru, and if I come down from the mountain today, I will go to Hwaheeru for the second time.

Now it’s 97%, and I was able to raise it to 95% as soon as I possessed it, so I raised it by 2% over two weeks.

If you think that 2% is actually 40%, it seems like quite a bit of progress, but if the quest is not completed, it is 0, which is also a problem.

Of course, the proficiency in the Yeonyeom magic technique is increasing, but should I say that it is disappointing?

“I hope you can realize your innocence today.”

“When I think about my daily practice, I don’t know where to use it, but I will try.”

“The Divine Law (body law) is not something that you unfold because you think you need to unfold it. All you have to do is understand it.”

“Yes, Master.”

Seeing the teacher say that, it seems like it’s almost done, but if I don’t get a quest, does it mean I won’t be able to reach level 7?

Feeling a bit of regret, I followed the teacher into the cave to practice.

*

“Ugh… I’m dying.”

“It’s the same as usual, so don’t worry.”

This is the state I am in after every training.

When I finished training, I was more tired than my body because I had to put all my effort into suppressing the rising yang energy to crush my reason.

Even if Master was by my side, I had to be careful because I didn’t know what I would do if I lost my mind.

I walked like that and came to Hwaheeru, but for some reason there seemed to be more people around today.

“I have a drinking partner today.”

Master said while looking up at the heights of Hwaheeru.

“Is the old man inside?”

“Okay. You do what you have to do.”

“I understand.”

“Are you here, King Yeom?”

Hua Xiruju greeted Master with a slightly nervous look.

“It looks like Panga has arrived, so I guess I can go up that high?”

“Yes. I have reserved a room on the 4th floor. Prince Han has put up the courtesans who were not with us last time in advance, so you can go up to the 6th floor.”

“Yes. I feel more comfortable that way, Master…”

Master did not exist next to me.

When I looked up like everyone else, it seemed like Master had jumped from his spot and climbed up to the fourth floor in one go.

Can I do it too? Let’s walk calmly because the energy is about to overflow.

“Senior King Yeom, are you here?”

King Paeng Ha-byeok, a man with a large physique and thick lines, with dark black hair tied in a ponytail, said when he saw Yeomwang Bae Du-il entering the room.

“Yeah, it’s been a while. It’s Panga.”

King Yeom sat across from King Tao, and King Tao poured alcohol into his empty glass.

“It seemed like you had cut off all ties with the secular world, but it seems like you changed after meeting the Sword King senior?”

King Yeom answered after drinking a full glass of wine.

“The world just happened to be spinning so that the four of us couldn’t leave our seats.”

“Whew. Aren’t we too old to move again?”

“It’s hard for a guy who isn’t even 60 years old to be complaining.”

“There’s less than a year left. And there’s no order for people to go, right?”

King Yeom nodded his head because he had seen the death of many acquaintances during his time as a martial artist.

“Okay. There is no order. So what brought you here?”

“My disciple said he really wanted to see my fiancee, so I brought her here. These days, I must have been on fire when I heard that she was living with a disciple of King Yeom, who has a reputation as a man who should not be around a virgin.”

“Is it not Zhuge Seon-ah, but Zhuge Jin-seo? Like the Zhuge family, she has carefully chosen the wives of her daughters.”

One side is the next sword dragon of the Namgung family, and the other side is the disciple of the King of Dao. Both of them have far exceeded the passing point of force.

“Even if Sega’s military power is weak, Sega can be maintained because the in-laws are the only ones who use a lot of power.”

“Yes, that is your student’s business. If you had nothing to do, would you have come down to Hubei?”

“Senior, I guess I’m getting older too. I just came here to have a drink with you. Is there a bigger reason than that?”

“Nothing.”

The two people clinked their glasses.
