Who threatened to call me Cheonmahara with a knife? Episode 194
Nancheonhoe (6)
While the arrows of criticism were being directed at Biryonggakju, the elder of the Namgung Sega family’s outer party opened his mouth.
“Well, well. There’s no need to blame the Biryongju. The Biryongju was just gathering information that was spread throughout Xinjiang. In my opinion, I think this is also the idolization of those fanatics.”
Several of those who attended the meeting nodded in agreement.
“Or maybe the rumors are just exaggerated. They say that words without legs can travel a thousand miles, but they tend to get exaggerated as the number of people who pass by them increases.”
This time, a nonpartisan elder offered another opinion.
Either way, neither of them believed the rumors.
“Tsk. As expected, those devilish bastards are just like that.”
The elder of the Hwasan faction also seemed to agree with the two’s opinions, lightly clicking his tongue and disparaging the Cheonma Sect.
As expected of an elder of the Hwasan faction, who was known to be the successor of the Gongdong faction, he revealed absolute malice toward the Demonic Cult.
Subtly, the malice was closer to ‘contempt’ or ‘disdain’.
Because I’m not arguing that we should go and wipe them out right away.
In a way, it was natural. It had been over six hundred years since the Gongdongpa had been swept away by the Cheonma of the time.
In addition, since it had been over two hundred years since the Demonic Cult was driven out to Xinjiang, revenge was already close to being achieved.
The last time the Hwasanpa directly confronted the Demonic Cult was during the invasion of the previous Heavenly Demon Cult over ninety years ago, so their desire for revenge was bound to be somewhat diluted.
Because it was such a long time ago, few of those who took part in the battle remain.
Of course, mental education is still continuing.
If you ask the disciples of the Volcano Sect, “Who is our main enemy?”, a hundred out of a hundred will answer, “The Demonic Cult!”
However, there were some people that the Volcano Sect disciples truly wanted to chew on.
That’s right, it was the rival faction that fought for supremacy in Shaanxi Province every day. It was the Jongnam faction.
The same was true for Cheongseong and Jeomchang, who were in similar situations.
Cheongseong also resented the rivals of Sacheonseong, and Jeomchang was also in a position where the three major powers of Sacheonseong were blocking the way to the east, and Haenampa to the east.
“Tsk. I wasted my energy on those useless things of the Demonic Cult.”
The rumors about the Eight Princes of the Demonic Cult were so absurd that those who had attended the meeting eventually lost interest.
Instead, they each began to bring up one topic at a time that was related to their own interests.
For a long time, these meaningless meetings continued.
Immediately after the meeting, which was almost a waste of time, ended, General Gongsun Xuan, the commander in chief, called in the Biryong Pavilion separately.
“Thank you for your hard work.”
Under Gongsun Xuan’s rule, Biryong Pavilion tried to suppress its anger and replied.
“I was just doing what I had to do, General.”
The fact that the rumor about Ichimoku was revealed at today’s meeting was due to the instructions of the General Staff.
Because of that order, Biryonggakju heard insulting words from many elders, but he did not question the commander-in-chief about it or ask him why he had to do that.
Biryonggakju believed that it was the duty of a subordinate to do whatever his superior told him to do without question.
Of course, when he gave instructions to his subordinates, he also meant that he wanted them to do the same.
However, General Gongsun Xian was a little different.
“Aren’t you curious as to why I insisted on relaying such a ridiculous rumor?”
I believed that if I knew the purpose of the work, the other person would be able to follow along properly.
Of course, this was also because he was opening his mouth while accurately understanding the nature of the Biryongakju.
“I just do my best to do whatever the General tells me to do.”
At the honest and loyal answer, Gongsun Xian smiled faintly and said.
“It was done on purpose. The Gupaebang and the Seven Great Sega. They wanted to continue to ignore the Demonic Cult.”
“!?”
It was a situation where even the loyal subject Biryonggakju had difficulty controlling his expression.
“Wow, isn’t that dangerous?”
“It might be dangerous. But isn’t it natural for a man to take risks to achieve his goals?”
The general who had been muttering incomprehensible words suddenly took on a serious expression and spoke.
“Think about the current state of the martial arts world. The name of the martial arts alliance is meaningless. In reality, the ones who decide everything are the old guard of the Gupaeilbang and the seven great families.”
“… … .”
“What do you think? Do you really think they are righteous?”
“… … .”
To Gongsun Xuan’s repeated questions, Biryong Gakju was unable to give any answers.
Of course, there were a few righteous places among the Gupaebang and the Seven Great Sega, and there were some who truly tried to practice harmony.
But, looking at the whole picture, it was only a minority.
“Aren’t they just meddling and trampling on the justice of the martial world just because they entered a good Buddhist school when they were young and were born into a wealthy family?”
“… … .”
Biryonggakju Jeongyeong recalled what had happened a little while ago.
He had risen to the position of Biryonggakju of the Murim Alliance and was one of the five most powerful people in the Alliance, but at today’s meeting, he had to be criticized by elders who were not even the heads of the Gupaebang and the Seven Great Families.
And this was also the case for Gongsun Hyeon.
The Gupaebang and the Childae Sega. They kept each other in check so that no one of them could gain too much power, and that is why Gongsun Hyeon, who is not a member of a large sect, has taken his current position.
Despite his title as General of the Armed Forces, his power was only half-assed.
In reality, there was a Jegal Se-ga who pretended to be soldiers of the Murim Alliance.
Because they were in the same situation, Gongsun Xuan accurately understood the resentment contained in Biryong Gakju, and that was why he willingly revealed his inner feelings to Biryong Gakju.
Of course, Gongsun Xuan was a man with a brilliant mind who was able to rise to the position of general despite not being from a large family.
I also knew how foolish it was to ‘trust’ someone.
I just knew how to make others do what I wanted.
“Wouldn’t you like to push out those hypocrites and establish justice in martial arts under the banner of the Murim Alliance?”
Right now. It’s like they’ve dragged him in by wrapping the resentment of the Biryongakju in the name of justice.
“If so, does Your Majesty intend to let the Demonic Cultists invade the Central Plains? By making the Nine-Tailed Faction and the Seven Great Families let their guard down?”
“That’s right. Wasn’t the reason the Martial Arts Alliance was first established because of the invasion of the Demonic Cult? If an enemy that can only be dealt with by joining forces arises, then power will eventually have to be concentrated in one place. Right here. In the Martial Arts Alliance.”
And just like in the meeting a little while ago, we let down our guard the elders of the Gupailbang and the Seven Great Sega.
Moreover, he was capable and knew that it would take a lot of effort to realize the picture he had envisioned.
“So I’m going to give you a secret mission. Send a few of your most vocal subordinates to investigate the Eight Princes.”
“Are you talking about the eight princes?”
What about the Confucius of that absurd rumor?
Gongsun Hyun smiled coldly and responded to the gaze of Biryonggakju that contained his feelings.
“It is said, ‘If there is no fire, there will be no smoke.’ The rumor itself may be groundless, but there must be a reason why such a rumor spread. Above all, if he is the disciple that the fearsome Heavenly Demon cherishes, there must be a reason, right?”
All Gongsun Xuan wants is to use the invasion of the Demonic Cult as an opportunity to overturn the power structure in the Central Plains.
I had no intention of handing over the Central Plains to the Demonic Cult.
“Your Majesty! If you have any information about Prince Pal, I will find out the number of his hairs and report back to you.”
Biryong Gakju, who was moved by Gongsun Hyeon’s words, shouted with eyes burning with a sense of mission.

Is it because all the enemies have died and fallen, and silence has fallen?
Gulp.
When Il-mok hears about the side effects of Dam-bin, the sound of saliva flowing down his throat rings out particularly loudly.
Ichimoku asked with a somewhat tense expression on his face.
“Are the side effects okay?”
Dam-bin answered Ilmok’s question with a still wicked smile.
“I’ve gotten over the extreme pain, so it’s been quite bearable for the past few years.”
“Oh, that’s right.”
Immediately after Ichimoku answered in an awkward voice, an awkward silence fell between the two for a moment.
“Brother!”
Hyukryun Seon-ah’s voice broke the silence.
She approached Ilmok with swift movements and looked up at him with watery eyes and asked.
“Are you okay, brother?”
Ilmok, who had escaped the awkward atmosphere thanks to Seon-ah’s appearance, answered with a worried expression.
“I’m fine. But Seon-ah, are you okay? How did you end up covered in blood like this?”
It was because of the blood that was splattered all over her clothes and face.
“Thanks to your concern, brother, the girl is safe.”
Seon-ah said that with a face that said, “Please praise me quickly.”
Ilmok reached out his hand to stroke Hyukryun Seon-ah’s red hair, but then hesitated.
– Are the eyes just for decoration? Aren’t there any blood stains on them?
His obsession with hygiene was too strong to touch a bloody person, even if it was his cute little brother.
As Ilmok’s hand stopped approaching her head, Hyukryun Seon-ah looked at Ilmok’s hand with eyes full of regret.
If those who had left this world with their hearts and throats pierced by her nails had seen it, it would have been an expression that would have caused a match.
Ilmok, who eventually gave up stroking Seon-ah’s head, spoke with an awkward expression.
“You’ve had a hard time. And Lady Jin and Prince Baek have had a hard time too.”
Hyukryun Seon-ah suddenly ran out. Jin Ha-yeon and Baek Cheon, who were with her, had also entered the Nancheonhoeju Hall.
“I am fine. Your Majesty, you have suffered too.”
“Hahaha. Could it be that much of a struggle? Prince Eight.”
Immediately after the emotionless Jin Ha-yeon and the noisy Baek Cheon’s answers.
“Confucius!”
“This can’t be happening!”
Two men, no less distracted than Baekcheon, arrived at the pavilion.
Joo Seo-yeon and Gu Yang-moon looked at each other with faces as if the sky was falling down.
The battle was already over, so the plan to rescue Il-mok, who was injured, and give him to Jin Ha-yeon ended up in vain.
‘Damn. If only it weren’t for those guys at the end!’
‘If I had known this would happen, I would have killed him sooner, even if it meant getting stabbed in the side!’
Gu Yangmun and Ju Seoyeon both had that thought at the same time.
On their way to the Nancheonhoe Hall, the two remaining top-level Nancheonhoe masters stopped them.
However, it was a long shot for only two top-tier masters to stop Guyangmun and Juseoyeon, who were receiving support fire from Jeonghyeon, and in the end, the trio arrived here after dealing with the two men.
While Goo Yang-moon and Joo Seo-yeon were feeling sorry, Il-mok spoke to a woman who was watching from a corner alone.
“You’ve worked hard too, Lady Jeong.”
“Do what you have to do, that’s all.”
It was a sight that had no intention of telling Guyangmun and Juseoyeon that they had worked hard.
‘You wanted me to be in trouble, you crazy bastards.’
Just by looking at their eyes, I could tell what those crazy guys were thinking.
After confirming that everyone had gathered, Ichimoku opened his mouth.
“Have you taken care of all the Nancheonhoe thugs you encountered?”
“Yes, Your Majesty.”
“If you do, gather those corpses and bring them here. We will have to burn them to destroy the evidence.”
The evidence that Ilmok was talking about were the wounds on the corpse’s body.
Since scars were traces of martial arts, there was a risk that if they were not careful, the martial arts they had learned would be exposed.
I was wondering if the Murim Alliance would investigate everything from the Sa-pa forces in the underdeveloped Gansu Province.
‘There’s no harm in being thorough.’
For Ichimoku, who was suffering from the effects of the Talhonmujeonggeom, destroying evidence was something that had to be done as a matter of course.
