The Party Will Not Fall - Chapter 81

General Military Office.

Immediately after Chae Se-yeon left, Na-gyeol supported the back of her head with both hands.

“That’s why I said you shouldn’t move it all at once… .”

When doing something as secret and risky as gunpowder trafficking, you sometimes have to take a risky approach.

Even if it is cumbersome and inefficient, proceeding at a loss is often beneficial in the larger picture.

Nagyeol shook his head.

“I should have taken charge. Anyway, the old people have hardened their minds… .”

Na-gyeol’s eyes, which had been clicking her tongue toward Hwangbo Palace, the head of Gamsamwon, turned to the office door.

A human shadow stood tall on the window paper, which had been receiving good sunlight until just moments before.

“Come in.”

The man who opened the office door and came in had large scars on his chin and neck, which had faded his distinct features.

The man had no name.

No, I couldn’t remember the name.

As an unknown person, the only thing that existed was the nickname Nagyeol gave him.

“Sword Demon.”

“Male, female. “Both of them have been taken care of.”

“Good job. “Go and rest.”

Recently, there were minions who saw eye to eye and attempted to betray each other.

He attempted to rely on himself by providing information to the Zhuge family, the only one among the five major families who were hostile to the Qinglinbu.

Na-gyeol learned of the idiots’ ridiculous plan in advance.

Whenever a traitor occurred, he sent the Sword Demon to punish them, and this time too there were no variables.

Na-gyeol feels depressed after receiving Chae Se-yeon’s report.

Before the Hubei Festival, which will be hectic every day, I wanted to rest today.

He waved his hand to indicate that when he was finished, he would leave.

However, the sword demon did not just leave.

“Did you find my identity card?”

“… yet. “Have any more memories come back?”

The Sword Demon’s expression darkened.

“It’s all what I told you before. It was a swampy area and was attacked by a local landowner. “That’s when I got these scars and lost my memory.”

The sword demon continued.

“I think I was on my way back home to my family… .”

“okay. “I’m looking for you, so wait.”

“Is there still no progress?”

“I heard you were looking for it.”

Nagyeol bit her lower lip and got irritated.

“Do you know that there is one or two swamps in the central plains? Are you urging this because you don’t trust the Cheonglimbu?”

“… … .”

“Who was the one who fed and put me to sleep with a bastard that I didn’t even know was a scum that was eating somewhere? Tsk.”

“sorry.”

“I’ll tell you right away when I find it, so don’t be silent about your identity from now on. okay?”

“i get it.”

The Sword Demon, with his shoulders slumped, turned his back.

It was Nagyeol’s call that caught him trying to go out.

“wait for a sec.”

“what?”

When the Sword Demon’s eyes met, Nagyeol did not make a sound but only moved her lips.

The Sword Demon looked puzzled and opened his mouth.

“Namgung Seobaek?”

“okay.”

He didn’t say it out loud, but only moved his lips, but the sword demon guessed the message like a ghost.

“Your talent, the talent to read conversations with your lips even without hearing them!”

“Talent… You could also say this. “I’m not sure, but I think it’s been possible since I was young.”

“I hadn’t thought of this before.”

Nagyeol, lost in self-absorption, closed her eyes and let out a long breath.

What I had been doing with restraint until now, trying not to scratch and make a mess, was possible with the Sword Demon.

Nagyeol looked at the sword demon.

“From now on, monitor Namgung Seobaek of the Senate.”

“How are we supposed to monitor the police’s unmanned personnel?”

“I don’t care what he does on his own. “Know what they’re up to when guests come over or when they go out.”

Power entered the Sword Demon’s eyebrows.

“My questions still remain. Namgung Seobaek is the military officer of Hyeongyeong.”

“Follow me from afar. “With your talent, you can tell who they are talking to and what they are talking about.”

“i get it.”

The sword demon opened the office door.

He took a step outside and looked back at Nagyeol.

“I hope you find my identity card.”

“okay. “I’ll do my best.”

widely.

As soon as the door closed, Nagyeol reached under the desk.

He opened the drawer and the item he took out was an identification card.

I found it not long after collecting the sword demon and kept it hidden.

Na-gyeol tapped his forehead with his identity card.

As I held the Sword Demon’s name in my hand, the corners of my mouth naturally rose.

“Huya, huya, samahuya.”

A fishy smile adorned his jade cap.

“How foolish. “Thanks to you, I feel better.”

Nagyeol changed his mind about resting and grabbed a pile of documents.

As I was about to bring it in front of me, I moved my hand and took out a blank piece of paper.

I almost forgot because I was dealing with the Sword Demon.

“first of all… .”

Na-gyeol picked up a brush to write a letter to Hwang Bo-gung.

Aside from not liking it, Hwang Bo-gung is the person responsible for gunpowder trafficking.

We had to tell them that one of the trafficking routes had been cut off.

* * *

Nangong Seobaek left the Senate on time.

On the way out, a few elders tried to talk to me, but they all responded half-heartedly.

Except for Namgung Seobaek, all of the current senators were temporary arrivals for the Hubei Festival.

It was to maintain and expand their network.

‘Things that eat away at political factions.’

Namgung Seobaek, who came out to the street, walked leisurely with his back turned.

Hubei was bright even at night.

Merchants hung lanterns in each store and actively solicited customers.

Fittingly, many warriors walked around in groups.

Just by looking at the uniform, you could tell which clan it was.

I even saw an old file room.

Children from Shaolin, Hwasan, and Shaman laughed as they shared snacks and were led by adults.

Namgung Seobaek quietly passed by them.

Fortunately, no one recognized him.

He was an old man by the time he chose to go into seclusion.

There was no way for outsiders to recognize the current appearance of the anti-Roh turnaround.

“Hmm.”

Namgung Seobaek, who was walking slowly, suddenly entered a dark alley.

The Sword Demon, who had been following from a distance that was almost on the opposite side of the street, frowned.

‘Where are we going?’

Hubei at night was completely dark except for the streets.

Moreover, the alley where Namgung Seobaek is missing does not lead to the red light district.

The sword demon climbed up onto the roof of the high guest house and looked down at the alley.

“No… uh?”

I turned my head left and right and checked the surrounding area.

But Namgung Seobaek was nowhere to be seen.

The sword demon went down to the alley and searched the scene thoroughly.

If even the slightest trace, such as a footprint, remains, the direction can be inferred.

However, as if it had literally evaporated, there was nothing left in its place.

As a swordsman who had been in charge of finding and killing traitors to the Cheonglimbu, he had never seen a scene as clean as this.

Since there were literally no clues left, the tracking skills I had honed over the years were of no use.

The Sword Demon frowned.

‘Did you get caught? ‘Next time, I’ll have to monitor fifty chapters from further away.’

The first fight between the two was the defeat of the sword demon who took Hyeon-kyeong lightly.

* * *

Dang Bi-hyeon climbed over the wall.

There were many warriors heading to the street or returning home enjoying themselves.

As I was trying to avoid their gaze, I missed the appointed time slightly.

What Dang Bi-hyeon saw when he landed in the yard was Dang Yeong pouring tea into four tea cups one after another.

And it was Namgung Seo-baek, who was looking at Dang Bi-hyeon with his arms crossed.

“late.”

“It’s been a while, you two. and… .”

Tang Feixian’s eyes quickly fell from the two people.

It was because the owner of the fourth teacup was looking at him.

The palms on his knees were rough, and his straight back and neat prayers proved that he was a warrior.

Although Dang Bi-hyeon was not invited, she was able to guess the identity of the man who naturally joined the meeting.

“Nice to meet you, uncle.”

Dangyeong looked at her husband’s not so pretty eyes and smiled bitterly and said,

“Come and sit down.”

“yes.”

Dang Bi-hyeon sat across from the man and thought.

‘Just being here means that you are at least on the same side as me.’

We may not cooperate and fight together.

However, he would not be a person who would spread secrets or choose betrayal.

I considered the possibility of being with him until the end and then betraying him at a critical moment.

But it was soon ruled out.

For that to work, there must be personal benefits from being associated with Tang Fei-hyeon, but there is no such thing.

‘There’s a lot I want to hear, but I guess I’ll have to deal with my uncle first.’

Dang Bi-hyeon took off his mask.

“This is Dang Bi-hyeon.”

“… “It’s a chemical.”

Before starting a full-fledged conversation, Namgung Seobaek briefly explained what happened.

“As you asked before you left, we killed Yu-gyeong, Lord Chaehwawon. “But the moment she came back after killing her, she was caught.”

Dang Bi-hyeon nodded and stared at Hwa-ryo.

“Speak comfortably.”

“Before that, I have something to check.”

“What is?”

Hwaryo sighed and asked a question in a desperate tone.

“My wife, can you make sure she doesn’t get hurt?”

“I can’t guarantee it.”

Hwaryo raised his eyebrows.

“What the hell—”

“but,”

Dang Bi-hyeon interrupted him and stepped forward.

“I bear all the sins committed while punishing the Cheonglimbu.”

“… … .”

“And even if you want to leave in the middle, I will never stop you.”

Another sigh came from Hwaryo.

Dang Bi-hyeon shrugged his shoulders.

“In that sense, my uncle also helped me… .”

Tang Ying’s head turned towards Tang Feixian.

“Hyuna.”

“zero.”

Hwa-ryo, who wrapped his hand around the back of Dang-yeong’s hand, met Dang Bi-hyeon’s gaze.

“If I help you, can you finish it faster?”

“We can finish it more safely and reliably.”

Dangyeong touched his forehead with his fingertips.

Although he maintained a calm expression, he seemed quite nervous.

The silence continued like that.

Hwa-ryo seemed to be choosing what to say, and Dang Bi-hyeon was waiting for him.

The person who broke the silence, unexpectedly, was Namgung Seobaek.

Whoop.

He deliberately made the sound of drinking tea and asked, aiming at the flower.

“I guess old man, aren’t you planning on helping Tangga anyway?”

“How did you know?”

“Honey drips from the eyes of the head of the party. I have to do my best for the people in the party.”

After making a groaning noise, Hwaryo eventually agreed.

“Isn’t it said that a married couple is one in unity?”

“… … .”

“okay,”

Finally, he spoke to Dang Feixian.

“My wife’s will is firm, so I will help her as much as I can.”

Dang Bi-hyeon lowered his head.

Dangyeong blinked at Hwaryo, as if he didn’t know that he had intended to help from the beginning.

At that time, Namgung Seobaek struck Hwaryo.

“You missed the most important thing.”

“You mean it’s important?”

“What can you do?”

Yang Howie, who is not here, is taking charge of matters outside the Murim Alliance on behalf of Dang Bi-hyeon.

Everything is explained by Namgung Seobaek’s nickname, Ice Jeonggeomje.

He is an authority that cannot be ignored by the Cheonglimbu, and is equipped with unrivaled martial arts skills that can be used in emergency situations.

As the head of the guest house, Dangyeong has a little bit of real power, and she herself is a supreme expert.

“How can you help Tang Feixian?”

“I am… .”

Hwaryo seemed speechless.

Hana made eye contact with Dangyeong for a moment and then spoke with confidence.

“I have been studying pharmacy ever since I quit my life as a ronin.”

Tang Feixian’s pupils widened.

Hwaryo shifted his gaze to him and continued.

“So, if you need treatment and detoxification… .”

“Required.”

Dang Bi-hyeon jumped up from his seat.

“Right Now.”
