The Party Will Not Fall - Chapter 51
Only Krnovel
Jump and jump.
Dang Bi-hyeon and Chae Se-yeon began walking along the reservoir.
The reservoir may seem unsuitable for Mildam because it is open on all sides, but the opposite was true.
A reservoir so large that when the water rises, the surrounding area becomes completely like the sea.
Because the Sadyoryeon was blocking the access of civilians, the surrounding area was extremely quiet.
Thanks to this, I was able to immediately recognize and stop talking when I sensed someone pretending to be around.
“It looks like we are not under suspicion.”
“It went as planned. “The Sadyoryun believes that the black thieves who happened to go underground during the battle killed Dogyeong.”
“Did something happen while I was unconscious?”
“There was nothing particularly important. “I couldn’t move actively without you.”
Chae Se-yeon told us about what happened over the past week.
“All three powerful factions of the Sa sect are gathered in the Apostolic Alliance. “The leadership was all safe.”
“Is it the same as being attacked by a black sword?”
“huh.”
Her words continued.
“Song Ju-hwan, who was the least likely to suspect us, headed to Sima Street.”
“Are you Sima Se?”
“They said they were bringing slaves. “I don’t know why slaves are involved in this mess.”
Dang Bi-hyeon seemed to know.
Currently, Chae Se-yeon and Dang Bi-hyeon were in Sadoryun as representatives of Shinon Sangdan.
Since money is needed in a crisis like this, the Apostolic Association needed to quickly make a deal with Shinon Sangdan.
In this way, wouldn’t it be possible to obtain the money needed immediately and to inform the outside world that the power of the Sadyoryun is not dead?
The Apostolic Lord Jeongryong probably thought this far.
I never dreamed that this would be the way to help Dangbihyeon.
‘If my guess is correct… .’
Dang Bi-hyeon asked Chae Se-yeon.
“Are you saying they’re bringing Neungyong too?”
“Is that person with a different skin color? “I said I would bring them all, maybe?”
Chae Se-yeon kept pace with Dang Bi-hyeon.
Dang Bi-hyeon was unconscious and didn’t know anything, but she let out a sigh filled with curiosity.
“Why him? Maybe you like Saekmokin… .”
“no.”
Dang Bi-hyeon was left speechless for a moment by Chae Se-yeon’s guess, which was far beyond her expectations.
Eventually, I began to unravel and explain my thoughts to her.
“At Sima Sega’s guest house, I placed the famous sword I obtained from killing Dao Jing in the great master’s room.”
“Yes, I saw it. “I didn’t want it to be discovered, so I hid it in my clothes and brought it with me.”
“That item probably belongs to Neungyong’s father.”
Chae Se-yeon still didn’t understand.
There was a hint of puzzlement in his tone.
She mumbled to herself, recalling the explanation she had heard before.
“Neung Yong’s father was a general from a ruined country in the western region. That famous sword also belongs to the general of the ruined nation.”
“you’re right.”
“This might just be a coincidence.”
“But it’s not common for two countries to fail at the same time.”
The possibilities are divided into two branches.
The country where Neungyong worked and the source of the famous sword are different, but Tang Bihyeon forced them together.
Otherwise, the famous sword would have been owned by Neungyong’s father.
It was still impossible to be sure.
However, Dang Bi-hyeon placed more emphasis on the latter.
“Neungyong said he would try to escape whenever he got the chance. If my guess is correct, there will be room for this at some point.”
“I see. I really think so… .”
Chae Se-yeon was impressed.
Yoo Hyuk’s skill in connecting separate clues to arrive at a result was extraordinary.
I trusted him even more.
The relationship between Dang Bi-hyeon and Sa Do-ryeon will surely be revealed with Yu Hyeok.
“lender.”
“Is there still anything left to ask?”
Dang Bi-hyeon nodded, saying, “Of course.”
Immediately after, I went back to the beginning of this conversation and asked a question.
“So what is that jangtak thing?”
* * *
The long table banquet is a long-standing tradition of the Apostolic Association.
The top leaders of Sapa, including the three major figures of Sapa and Apostolic Alliance executives, gather and sit at a long table every day.
Some days we just build friendships, and some days we discuss lines seriously.
The format and schedule are not clearly set, and they appear one by one around evening.
It was a place where things flowed freely, befitting the prestige of Sapa.
“I’ve only heard about it, but this is my first time attending.”
Dang Bi-hyeon nodded to show that he understood.
Danyeo, who was leading the way, grabbed the doorknob in front of him.
“We’re all here.”
She opened one side of the door and fell to the side.
The door on the other side was opened by another citizen who was waiting.
A huge room was revealed.
The first thing that caught Dang Bi-hyeon’s eyes was a jangtak (長卓) worthy of its name.
A table that is meaningful because everyone in the room shares the same prize.
Just looking at the mountain and sea delicacies arranged on top of it gave me a feeling of fullness.
It seemed that Chae Se-yeon and Dang Bi-hyeon were among those who arrived late.
There were only a few empty chairs.
“Ah, you came.”
The only old man on the narrow side of the table, Jeongryong, the leader of the Four Masters, put down his drink.
He pointed to a chair quite close to him.
“Sit here.”
“thank you.”
Jeongryong’s gaze shifted to Dang Bihyeon.
“There are seats for small cooperatives, so don’t stand.”
“… yes.”
The seat that Jeongryong recommended was the seat next to Samaan.
As soon as Chae Se-yeon sat down, Samaan smiled at her.
“You’re finally here?”
“Ah yes. In the meantime… .”
“I’m so worried about the Kang Sohyeop, but it wouldn’t have meant much even if it had come. i know.”
Samaan welcomed Chae Se-yeon and sighed softly.
Self-talk flowed from her mouth.
The sound of the words was so quiet that Chae Se-yeon would not have heard it if she were not a military officer.
“I’ll be able to breathe today… .”
Soon, Jeongryong clapped his hands loudly.
All the members of the jangtak group who were chatting turned their heads to look at him.
Jeong Ryong urged Chae Se-yeon and Dang Bi-hyeon to introduce themselves, and the two stood up and briefly revealed their names and identities.
A name and identity that is nothing more than a fake.
‘It’s not a very welcoming atmosphere.’
Dang Bi-hyeon sat down on the chair again and looked around the table quietly.
The looks that reached Dang Bi-hyeon and Chae Se-yeon were mostly a mixture of caution and indifference.
They do not welcome outsiders because the Black Island threatens their survival.
There were a few exceptions.
Sima An was the representative one, but their number was not that large.
Time passed.
Tang Feixian observed the atmosphere in the room without speaking to anyone.
It was easy to see why it was a table banquet rather than a table meeting.
The main aspect of the banquet was conversation between close friends.
Jeong Ryong also occasionally burst into laughter as he made a big deal with a woman who appeared to be his confidant.
‘I can’t figure it out at all. Does this mean that we become serious again when discussing matters big and small?’
The party was on the liberal side among the political factions, but the Apostolic Alliance was even more so.
Dang Bi-hyeon thought positively.
‘What’s good is good.’
I picked up a drink to naturally blend into this atmosphere.
He brought the glass up to his mouth, narrowed his eyebrows, and put it back down.
There was still a trace of poison remaining in my body, so drinking was out of the question.
Instead, I started exploring while satisfying my hunger.
‘Now that the Four Horsemen are dead, there are three Cheongrimbu members from the Four Sects left.’
Sun, Quick Sword Lover Sogaju.
It was easy to identify who he was.
“Now that I think about it, Sima Xiaoze. He wakes up early in the morning and enjoys going for a walk… ?”
“How did you know that, practitioner?”
“There is a way to know everything, hehe.”
“… … .”
Samaan turned her head towards Chae Se-yeon to avoid the man flirting next to her.
Chae Se-yeon’s veil wavered slightly.
She quietly asked Sima An.
“I know that there were marriage talks with Sogaju of the Swordsman of Love a while ago, but it couldn’t be… .”
“When looking at the practicalities, it was a marriage conversation that had no benefit to the Love Swordsman. “Then what is the reason?”
“… “Would you like to change seats?”
While the two were whispering, Tang Feixian glanced at Su Jiazhu.
Just as I was about to turn my head after completing the description of the appearance in my head, I saw the face of the Gaju of the Quick Sword Lover beyond So Gaju.
‘It’s unpleasant.’
A pitiful look in my son’s eyes.
Dang Bi-hyeon turned his head away from the flirtatious So Ga-ju, unable to imagine the family’s uncomfortable expression.
Why did the head of the Gaegeum Love Story appoint a son he did not like to be the head of the Soga family?
On the day I first encountered Song Joo-hwan, there seemed to be information about him in the book handed over by the informant.
Dang Bi-hyeon recalled the contents without difficulty.
‘Did you say that all of the children other than the author died when they were young?’
I had the temperament of being an asshole, but I had no other choice.
Of course, it was good news for Dang Bi-hyeon.
As befits a person with such a temperament, Sogaju’s martial arts level did not seem very excellent at first glance.
Dang Bi-hyeon looked away and checked the other minions of the Cheonglimbu.
‘This is the left-wing dog family’s self-defense committee.’
The family’s self-defense rank is not usually a simple self-defense rank.
You must have the skills to protect the most powerful person in a family, as well as the versatility to carry out difficult orders and absolute loyalty.
In that sense, the middle-aged man who stood tall behind the left-handed family head was a pass.
“hmm… ?”
Sensing Tang Fei-hyeon’s interest, the eyebrows of the defense committee and Jo Seong rose.
Dang Bi-hyeon, who elegantly changed his gaze from observation to an eye greeting, smiled softly.
Fortunately, Jo Seong was alert.
If someone was targeting them, they would be targeting the head of the family, but they didn’t seem to think that they were the target.
‘Although he is middle-aged, depending on how you look at him, he can be considered an old man.’
He probably joined the Cheonglimbu because he didn’t want to be pushed out because of his age.
Suddenly, Chae Hyun-hwa’s face flashed through my mind.
Dang Bi-hyeon, who was laughing, moved his eyes one last time to find the servant of the Cheonglimbu belonging to the Apostolic Alliance.
3, Sadoryun wooden footnote.
He is said to be a man from Irip who is blind in one eye and is in charge of maintenance and repairs of the Apostolic Training building.
“doesn’t exist… ?”
As time passed and all the seats at Jang Tak were filled, there was no such person.
Let alone going blind, everyone was enjoying the banquet with their eyes wide open.
What this meant was clear.
A minion of the Cheonglimbu who went into hiding in the Apostolic Alliance.
He is not even worthy of being put on the table.
Dang Bi-hyeon was finally able to see the overall picture.
‘Cheonglimbu does not have much influence in Sapa.’
That’s why the only subordinates are the stupid Sogaju, the aging Hosinwi, and the wooden iron legr with no power.
On the contrary, the Four Horsemen who were the owners of Sega and lined up in the Cheonglimbu were a heterogeneous type.
Still, a minion is a minion.
Since they were going to work for the Blue House, it was necessary to get rid of them.
While Dang Feixian was thinking of a method, a warrior hurriedly opened the door and came in.
Without even saying hello, the martial artist approached Jeongryong and whispered to him.
He listened to the report without any change in expression.
When the military officer left and the atmosphere became somewhat chaotic, Jeongryong smiled brightly and opened the conversation.
“This is news that the Red Dragon has returned. “Danju will arrive soon, so please say hello to everyone.”
They say even a tiger will come if you tell it to, and at that moment the door opened.
The moment Tang Feixian naturally turned his head to see the Red Dragon Lord.
‘… no way.’
A strong intuition dominated Tang Feixian.
His eyes were fixed on a woman who appeared outside the door.
