The Party Will Not Fall - Chapter 20
Only Krnovel
When I opened the box, Mo Yong-gyo’s body appeared.
Namgung-tae, with his eyes wide open, said something.
In response to Jo Pil’s shouting, the Cheonradan began to control the surroundings.
All those sounds did not reach Chae Se-yeon’s ears at all.
She reflexively closed her eyes.
“Seyeon.”
Chae Se-yeon from the past opened her eyes.
I saw Chae Hyun-hwa’s face.
“Godmother.”
“I told you to call me Daeju.”
Chae Se-yeon nodded and corrected the title.
“Did you call me, Lord?”
“Don’t be too nervous. “If you think you can’t do it, don’t try to cut down your opponent and focus on surviving.”
“yes.”
She looked left and right.
The members of the extermination team, who had lowered their bodies and concentrated their efforts, were all looking at one place.
Wild vegetables surrounded by wooden fences.
As the rumbling sound got closer, the crew members put their hands on their swords.
Eventually, the door to the living quarters opened.
Men carrying bows and clubs came out into the forest.
The unit commander whispered to Chae Hyun-hwa.
“Shall I spill it?”
“no.”
“All right. “We will enter in five seconds.”
Oh, buy it.
Chae Se-yeon’s breathing became slightly heavier without realizing it.
Three, two, one.
Grumbling—!
The first person to jump among the bandits was Chae Hyun-hwa.
As soon as they approached, they slaughtered two bandits with bows.
“Ugh!”
“It’s the Murim League!”
The bandits brandished the weapons they brought with them for hunting.
The Chussaldae took advantage of their numerical superiority and defeated them one by one.
“Close the door!”
“Stop it!”
The voices of the axe-wielding giant and the commander of the Chussal unit intersected.
Wow!
The giant, who had overcome the competition with the extermination team members with his might, took the step.
Chae Hyun-hwa, who stabbed another bandit in the heart from afar, shouted with a blood-splattered face.
“Square owner!”
She pulled out her sword and tried to run, but the bandit desperately grabbed her.
A giant was someone who had properly learned martial arts.
The unit owner used swordsmanship on the bandits to prevent them from closing the door.
When I looked back, the ax blade was hitting my head with the force of splitting it, blocking out the sunlight.
“… … .”
Chae Se-yeon held the sword with trembling hands.
She has never been able to take a single step out of the ambush site.
He was frozen in his ready position, unable to even draw his sword.
If this continues, the unit commander will die.
A person who cared for Chae Se-yeon to the point where he set up a confrontation with Chae Hyun-hwa, saying that it was still too early for the actual battle.
If Chae Hyun-hwa was her mother, the vice-chief was her father.
Bye!
“ah… .”
Only after clearly feeling her own shortcomings was Chae Se-yeon able to take a step forward.
Sreung!
The internal energy that extended throughout her entire body amplified her capabilities.
Chae Se-yeon sprinted past the battlefield in the blink of an eye and swung her sword diagonally.
Whoa!
After blocking the attack with the bloody ax blade, the giant stepped back and called out to his comrades.
When he saw Chae Se-yeon, who was so young, he didn’t let his guard down.
Chae Se-yeon jumped into the living quarters.
‘After that, my memories are blurry.’
When her eyes returned, the first thing she felt was extreme pain.
Even more than the shallow cuts here and there, my whole body hurt from overworked muscles.
She put down her sword.
The sword fell to the floor after a while due to the sticky blood on my palm.
The surrounding area was devastated.
Without exception, the bandits were killed, and the bodies of some of the extermination team members were lying on the ground.
“Seyeon.”
Chae Se-yeon turned around, enduring muscle pain.
Chae Hyun-hwa, who had sharpened her sword, moved towards her.
Chae Hyun-hwa wiped away the blood by rubbing her hands on her clothes and swept Chae Se-yeon’s face.
It was because I couldn’t see the clear tear marks.
Knock.
A teardrop formed on my chin and fell to the floor.
Chae Se-yeon traced her chin with her hand.
“Se-yeon, I’m sorry. Are you okay?”
“yes. It’s okay─”
In an instant, Chae Se-yeon’s legs lost strength.
Chae Hyun-hwa held her in place to prevent her from falling.
“It’s just that the smell of blood is strong.”
Chae Se-yeon spoke in a weak voice.
“I want to go back… .”
After saying those words, I lost my mind.
* * *
“Are you saying no one noticed? “I didn’t even see any blood stains on the outside of the box.”
“It was my mistake.”
Chae Se-yeon shook her head at Jo Pil’s words.
“Still, I’m glad. “If we hadn’t discovered it yesterday and it had entered the Murim Alliance, the repercussions would have been uncontrollable.”
Chae Se-yeon couldn’t shake off her worried expression.
Unfortunately, Chae Hyun-hwa was away at a time like this.
He disappeared, saying he had errands to run, and his destination was unknown.
Jo Pil, who was once depressed, expressed his gratitude to Chae Se-yeon again and asked.
“Anyway, tomorrow is the weekly meeting, what are you planning to do?”
If Chae Hyun-hwa is not there, it is correct that unit owner Chae Se-yeon attends.
However, in Jo Pil and Dang Bi-hyeon’s opinion, Chae Se-yeon’s condition was not ideal.
He looked quite helpless, completely unbecoming of a warrior.
It was still like that now.
It was unclear where his blank eyes were looking, and his voice was weak.
“Are you okay?”
After Jo Pil left, Dang Bi-hyeon spoke to her.
Chae Se-yeon raised the corners of her mouth with difficulty.
“I never imagined I would smell blood in the middle of that street. “That’s it.”
She slowly got up.
“Hyuk. Will you go to the weekly meeting tomorrow for me? “I want to focus on the investigation.”
“yes.”
Chae Se-yeon went out.
Perhaps she will head to the warehouse where the criminal’s hidden property is stored.
Tang Feixian turned off the lamp and left the room.
There will be no harvest this time either.
In the first place, it was not a place for murder.
Even though we managed to find out about the hillside of Moyong Bridge, there was only an empty hut left.
‘It’s a weekly meeting.’
What reason would Chae Hyun-hwa have to leave before such an important schedule?
Could it be that he went to meet the designer, the head of the Cheonglimbu?
In any case, what is important right now is that Dang Bi-hyeon can now attend the weekly meeting.
A meeting of the highest level of the Murim Alliance, where even Namgung Seobaek cannot enter.
It would be a valuable time.
* * *
The room that the leader personally uses is too small to hold a large-scale meeting.
Therefore, just as the emperor had a separate place to discuss major and minor affairs with his subjects, the weekly meeting was held in Daejeon, at the center of the Murim Alliance.
Dang Bi-hyeon entered the room and made eye contact with the man at the head of the table.
Like Namgung Seobaek, he is a master who achieved anti-Rohwandong.
It was the Murim lord Lee Yeop.
“Who are you?”
Dang Bi-hyeon set an example with his four fists.
“Due to Chusaldaeju’s absence, I came instead. “My name is Yuhyuk.”
“What about the vice owner?”
“We are at the scene for the murder of Moyong Soger.”
“Right. Please sit down.”
As I sat down in the prepared chair, I reflected on the rules of the weekly meeting.
Speech is permitted only to qualified persons.
A substitute who takes the place of an absent superior cannot remain silent until permission is given.
Additionally, unless you have health problems, you cannot leave your seat until the meeting is over.
There is one exception other than health.
If the leader leaves his seat in the middle of the day, he can rest at will.
However, it is said that such a thing is very rare.
“Is it Chusaldae, Hyeongdang, Baekhodan, or Hyeonmudan?”
“yes. Everyone else was present.”
Hyeongdang had no head, and the Baekhodan was in Sacheon working with Minga to stop the Sapa.
Hyeonmudan did the same thing every day, so it was okay to not attend.
The Commander-in-Chief Aroon then looked around Daejeon and declared.
“We will start the weekly meeting now.”
Dang Bi-hyeon looked at the people in Daejeon without being noticed.
People with deep connections in this life, like Jo Pil and Dangyeong, caught my eye first.
Tang Feixian immediately looked away.
‘I need to see the original columns.’
The facilities installed within the Murim Alliance are called parties.
This includes Yakdang, Hyeongdang, etc.
On the contrary, there are facilities that were built outside the Murim Alliance but are clearly classified as belonging to the Murim Alliance.
Such places are called won (院).
For example, Jijewon, which produces paper for the Murim Alliance.
‘You can ignore Jijewon. ‘It’s less powerful than Jigaekdang.’
The circles that Dang Bi-hyeon had to pay attention to were determined.
“Gamsawonju. “We will have to replenish our staff because of the auditor who died last time.”
The old man, neatly dressed and with a simple expression, smiled slightly.
“The deceased’s eldest son happened to be preparing to become an auditor. “You don’t have to worry because he’s a brilliant talent that I’ve been eyeing for a few years.”
“Isn’t the Board of Audit and Inspection an organization that listens to my orders? “Do as you wish.”
It seemed that Gamsa-wonju was not foolish enough to take Maengju’s words at face value.
He bowed his head deeply.
He said he had no intention of rebelling against the leader.
‘Gamsa Wonju. The author is clearly an official of the Cheonglimbu.’
There were a few people in their original lives who found out who the executives of the Cheonglimbu were.
It’s one of them.
But it cannot be removed now.
‘I am a mid-level expert who was active in the front line until recently. Moreover, considering the undercover escort… .’
Due to regulations, the position of Gamsamwonju is something that even the Murim Lord cannot do anything about.
Because of its importance, the Cheonglimbu will respond promptly.
Dang Bi-hyeon turned his head.
‘The easiest one is Chaehwawonju.’
Chae Hwa-wonju and Yoo-kyung are also Cheonglimbu executives.
Chaehwawon is a daycare center.
The purpose is to collect orphans resulting from conflicts among the martial arts people and raise them properly.
All people from Chaehwawon have the surname Chae.
Chae Hyeon-hwa and Chae Se-yeon of Chusaldae were from Chaehwawon.
‘A treasure trove of Cheonglimbu that supplies useful talent.’
The problem is that even if you kill Yu-kyung, the situation will not change.
Other puppets took over the garden, selected talented children, and educated them for use.
‘For now, let’s focus on the meeting.’
“I almost forgot.”
The leader stretched out his hand and pointed to a woman sitting in the last seat among those present.
“I heard that the leader of the Jigaek family has a clever plan to catch Dang Bi-hyeon, so everyone please listen.”
Dangyeong stood up from his seat.
Dang Fei-hyeon’s gaze turned towards that.
At Yasan, he asked to use himself, and when he came to the weekly meeting, he said it was a clever plan to catch Dang Bi-hyeon.
He narrowed his eyes.
Dangyeong slowly opened his mouth.
“The reason why I brought up this agenda is because I decided that the only way to remove the suspicions raised against me as a person outside the Buddhist priesthood was to arrest Dang Bi-hyeon.”
She continued.
“Unlike me, for Dang Bi-hyeon, family was everything. He wants revenge.”
She spoke a strange sentence in a pitchless voice.
“Of course, I don’t know what the people who are currently dead have to do with the extinction of the Tang Dynasty… .”
A subtle threat to the Blue House.
At the same time, it was seen as words and actions that insulted the deceased.
Chaehwawonju Yugyeong came forward.
“The head of the party. Aren’t you trying to explain the trick to catching Tang Fei-hyeon? “It’s a long story.”
“I’ll tell you now.”
Dangyeong smoothly ignored Yugyeong’s words and got to the point.
“Let’s prepare a dinner for him.”
“feast?”
“That’s right, Lord.”
As the leader lifted his chin, Dangyeong explained.
“We are bringing in Min Nam-geon from Sichuan Minga.”
The moment her ‘mysterious eye’ was revealed, noise erupted from all over Daejeon.
He is the head of the Min family and the father of Min Seong-guk, Dang Bi-hyeon’s first target.
Externally, he was the party that led the destruction of the party family.
It was the perfect dinner that would make Dangbihyeon drool.
When the leader raised his hand, those who were talking fell silent.
He pointed to Tangyeong with his hand.
“Chairman of the party, do you have a detailed plan?”
It was an extension of speaking time.
“The lord has already promised support for private homes. “We need to discuss the details, so please tell me to come to Hubei.”
“And then?”
“As you are a distinguished guest, you will be served in the guest hall. And, personal protection is lax.”
The leader recited the rest of Tang Ying’s plan.
“Dang Bi-hyeon’s eyes will roll. “To the point where he jumped in even though he knew it was a hunting ground set up to catch him.”
“you’re right.”
“Since Min Nam-geon’s life or death doesn’t matter, we will catch Tang Fei-hyeon unconditionally, right?”
“You are wise.”
The leader grinned as if he was satisfied with Dangyeong’s plan.
“What do you all think?”
Dang Bi-hyeon also couldn’t hold back his laughter.
