Chapter 600 of The Son-in-Law of Jegal Se, Who Wants to Take Him to a Bowl of Jjajang

Main room

.

-Squeak.

As the door opened, a large bed appeared.

A plain bed with an unusual white cloth, reflecting the owner’s taste rather than the auspicious red color.

The women who knew that the bed, which had been cold for several days, had lost its owner’s warmth, was the warmest bed of all entered the room.

“Is Okryung okay?”

“It looks like you’ve been poisoned, but Grandfather has decided to take care of it, so it’s okay. There’s no poison in this Central Plains that Grandfather can’t detoxify. Sister Maeng-hee.”

“That’s fortunate.” “Is Biyeon just exhausted?”

“I said earlier that Cheong-i wasn’t hurt anywhere. She’ll be fine if she just takes a deep breath and wakes up.”

Cheongwoon’s wives gathered again in Cheongwoon’s room after he moved and lost his master.

As the story about Okryung and Biyeon came up briefly and then disappeared, everyone flinched in front of the ownerless bed.

It was because the owner of the bed came to mind again.

So the six look at each other’s faces.

As Garyeon suddenly started to shed tears amidst the passing gazes, Yeongyeong quickly asked Cheong.

If he just let Garyeon shed tears, he, who was barely holding them back, would end up shedding tears along with Garyeon.

And if that happened, it seemed like everyone else but Young-young would end up shedding tears.

“Hey, Cheong-ah, I’m going to tell you what to do from now on. Are you done thinking about it?”

Eyes gather around Cheong-i at Yeong-yeong’s question.

Cheong-i, who was receiving everyone’s attention, nodded and answered.

“Yes, sis.”

Yes, I remember the owner of this room. The reason we all came to this room together after he disappeared was to discuss what would happen next.

It was because Cheong-i said she would tell me what to do next.

The pressure of ten days was gone, but I still had to worry about how to find him.

After answering Yeong-yeong’s question, Cheong-i looked at each of Cheong-un’s other wives, met their eyes, and continued speaking with a cold gaze.

“Okryeong and Biyeon did something unexpected. It looks like Cheonma will be stuck in Bokju for the next three months.”

“Yeah. I heard that earlier.”

While Biyeon and Okryung were escaping, they heard from Biyeon that the ship was burned and Cheonma was stranded in Bokju for three months.

When Cheong-yi’s other wives all nodded in agreement with Cheong-yi’s words, Cheong-yi looked at the five and then opened her mouth again.

“When we had ten days left, we had no choice but to go or not, but now that we have three months, Father will definitely use the Murim Alliance to subjugate Cheonma.

In three months, we will be able to gather the power of the Baekdo sect scattered throughout the Central Plains.

“The martial artists who have not forgotten the Saewoehyeolsa incident from twenty years ago will not refuse that request.”

The other wives nodded at Cheong-i’s words.

Cheonma is a rat in a poisoned cage, so just like Cheong-i said, we should gather all the Baekdo sects and subdue Cheonma.

Then, even a shell that has lost all of its memories will be able to regain Cheongun.

But since it seemed like Cheong-yi’s words wouldn’t end like this, everyone asked Cheong-yi back.

“however?”

“Then, can’t we get Unrang back?”

“If Cheonma is a rat in poison, then wouldn’t he be able to get his teacher back?”

As expected, Cheong shakes her head at that question.

Cheong-i looked at Cheong-un’s other wives and answered the question.

“But if we do that, several problems will arise.”

“A few problems?”

“Yes, first of all, Nokong is a criminal who has not learned martial arts. If a big fight breaks out, there is no guarantee that he will not get caught up in it.”

“surely···.”

“I see.”

Certainly, if so many martial artists clashed, it was possible that he would get hurt, just as Cheong-i said.

He is their servant, their benefactor, their teacher, their husband, and their mentor.

Because I’m a criminal who hasn’t learned a single bit of martial arts.

As everyone nodded at Cheong-yi’s words, Cheong-yi continued to explain.

“Also, I don’t know about your fathers, but if there are many heads, there may be talk of sacrificing cattle for the sake of the generation. No matter how famous our family is, it is nothing compared to the old school.”

“That, that kind of···.”

“Ugh···.”

“What do you mean, Cheong-ah?”

When everyone had serious expressions on their faces at Cheong-i’s words, So-so answered Yeong-yeong’s question, which she alone could not understand.

“There is talk that we should sacrifice Nokong in order to subdue Cheonma, Young-young.”

“What!? Ha, but isn’t he the one who will become the national hero!?”

Sacrificing the one who would become the Duke of Song?

When Yeong-yeong shouted with an expression that said, “That’s nonsense,” Cheong-i shook her head and said.

“You will become what your sister said, not someone who has already become one.”

“···.”

Silence fell on the room at Cheong-yi’s answer, and within that silence Cheong-yi spoke again.

“And even if we gather all the Baekdo Murim forces like that, it is questionable whether we will be able to really catch Cheonma.

Haven’t you all seen it? The Demon King’s Wuwei?

Cheonma, who clearly showed overwhelming power.

Yeong-yeong and Ga-ryeon said with expressions that said, “Surely not.”

Because it gathers all the power of Baekdo Murim.

“Well, that’s true. But wouldn’t it be better if there were more people?”

“Yes, didn’t they say that one person can’t stop ten people?”

But Cheong-i shook her head at their questions.

“Haven’t you seen how your fathers were oppressed by the energy of the Heavenly Horse and couldn’t move? Most of them wouldn’t be able to move at all, and even if they did, it wouldn’t be of much help.

Also, no matter how many people there are, there is only a limited number of people who can rush at one person. They will end up lining up one after another and running to their deaths.”

Even if thousands of people rushed at Cheonma, they would only get in each other’s way and there was little guarantee that they would be able to catch Cheonma.

“and?”

Yeong-yeong’s questions continued.

That question brought Qing Yi back to the center of attention.

“This is the most important issue.”

“Is it important?”

“What is that?”

“Even if you were to grind countless martial artists into a millstone to subdue the Heavenly Demon, would you be satisfied with that method?”

“Huh? Because of other people’s lives? Cheong-ah?”

Garyeon questions Cheong-i’s words.

I asked if it meant that I couldn’t sacrifice others’ lives to save the teacher, but Cheong-i immediately shook her head.

“No, poor thing. Even if we borrow someone else’s hand to save Nokong and take revenge on our grudge, all the memories and recollections we’ve built up have already disappeared, so I asked if you could accept it this way.

“All the memories I’ve built up with Nokong up until now have been denied, so even if I could get Nokong back and subdue Cheonma that way, I don’t think I’d be satisfied.”

After finishing speaking, Cheong-i raised an ice flower from her palm.

A peony called the King of Flowers bloomed like transparent ice on Cheong-yi’s palm.

Then, Cheong-i, who had been blooming blue and sparkling ice flowers, suddenly grabbed the flowers in her hand and spoke.

-Quadduck.

“If I can’t destroy it with my own hands.”

As the ice flower in Cheong-i’s hand shattered and fell into water droplets, So-so, who was watching the scene, pulled out her sword and stuck it into the ground, saying:

I’ve been just listening quietly until now, but Soso’s thoughts were the same.

“If I don’t feed this sword the blood of the Heavenly Demon, my burning resentment will not subside.”

Then, everyone, without exception, started spewing angry words.

Everyone had a hopeful mind, but the real reason was that they wanted to personally plant a seed in Cheonma.

First, Ga-Ryeon clenches her fists and raises her energy, and Maeng-Hee speaks while gritting her teeth.

“I think I’ll feel better if I feed this book to Cheonma’s face.”

“Ugh. I don’t think I’ll ever forget this grudge unless I bite that woman’s neck!”

Mimi and Young-young continued to tremble and express their anger.

“I too would be too embarrassed to dare to wander around. I want to steal and burn every last piece of your dirty words!”

“I also have to see the face of that girl who ignored me distorted.”

When everyone’s anger reached its peak, Cheong looked around at the five and said.

“But we want to rush in right now, defeat the Heavenly Horse, and bring back the old man, but unfortunately and sadly, we do not have that ability. We are weak.”

“Ugh···.”

“···.”

The atmosphere suddenly sank as Cheong-i faced the reality of her situation.

Since I had already mixed hands with Cheonma, there was no use in rushing in like Cheong-i said.

That was when.

Cheong-i looked around at the five and said.

“But we can’t give up like this, so we’ve thought about how we can defeat Cheonma, and there’s only one way.”

“What is that?”

“What is that, Cheong-ah?”

Five of them move closer to Cheong-i at her words.

Cheong-i looked into the eyes of Yeong-yeong, Mimi, Garyeon, Soso, and Maeng-hee one by one, then fixed her gaze on Mimi and asked.

“The day I saw Cheonma at Nokong’s home. Do you remember what Cheonma said? Sister Mimi?”

“What did Cheonma say?”

“Yes, that means that six experts like me would have to be at least equal to him.”

“Oh, now that I think about it. That’s right, I said that.”

When Mimi nodded to Cheong-yi’s question, Cheong-yi spoke with a determined look in her eyes.

“I’ll ask my mother after this story is over. I plan to temporarily take over my mother’s ice essence. Even if I can’t reach the level of Hyeon-gyeong, I’ll be able to raise my martial arts level a bit more. In the remaining time, I plan to train myself to become more familiar with my martial arts as Cheon-ma suggested.

But there is a limit to how strong I can become. It is a long way to the present, and I am sure I cannot do it in three months.

So, the only way to win this fight is for the five to grow.”

“Uh, us?”

“Are we talking about us?”

“Is it impossible?”

The five’s eyes wavered at the words that five had to reach Hwagyeong to win the fight.

That would be the case, since Hwagyeong wasn’t the name of a dog and it wasn’t something that could be easily said.

At that time, Cheong-i, who was looking around at the others, looked at Yeong-yeong and asked.

“Sister, here you are the most likely.”

“Me, me?”

“Yes. You know. My sister kept running away, so my grandfather and uncle couldn’t do it···.”

Yeong-yeong’s face turned pale at Cheong-i’s words.

Yeong-yeong stuttered with a trembling voice.

“That, that···.”

That was the moment.

“Whoaaah···.”

A scream is heard from outside.

When a scream was heard from Okryung’s room, six people ran to the room without any exception.

-Bam.

As I hurriedly ran to open the door, I saw Okryung screaming while holding onto Biyeon who was still awake.

Okryung, who had not fully recovered yet and was bleeding every time she spoke, was being stopped by Grandfather Dokwang, but Okryung held onto Biyeon and shouted.

“Hey, hey, calm down. Even though I told you not to move!”

“Why! Why! You traded your brother for someone like me! Why!”

“I had no choice. I had to save you. Hehe… Do you know it would have been easier for me to hand over Cheongun-nim to my own hands!?”

“Whoaaah···.”

Perhaps something happened between the two during the escape, but the sight of the two of them left both speechless.

Everyone felt like their suppressed emotions were going to explode, so they couldn’t say a word.

That was the moment.

As the six of them swallowed their tears while watching the two shedding tears and expressing their resentment, one of them stepped forward and snickered.

“Ha… Me too.”

-Thump thump.

One walks forward, pushing through the six, and stands in front of the bed.

Standing in front of the two holding each other was Young-Young.

“Sister?”

Cheong-i called Yeong-yeong from behind, but Yeong-yeong raised one hand slightly to show that it was okay.

Yeong-yeong placed her hand on the heads of the two who were crying and spoke in a pitiful voice.

“Hey, who told you to fight so loudly and shed tears like this? How dare the concubines go against the rules.”

“···Black. Yes?”

“Ugh… Yes?”

The two of them hold each other and cry at Yeong-yeong’s words, and then look at Yeong-yeong with surprised eyes.

Yeong-yeong said, patting their heads.

“From now on, the main wives will take care of things. Concubines, don’t fight and just stay quiet and guard the house.”

And then he looked back and said to the Poison King.

“Grandpa, let’s do that. The concubines are so resentful, so how can the main wife just sit still?”

“What, what are you talking about? All of a sudden.”

When the Poison King blinked at Yeong-yeong’s unexpected words, another word came out of Yeong-yeong’s mouth.

“The Great Law of the Sichuan Tang Family to Destroy the Poisonous People of the World.”
