Moon-Shadow Sword Emperor

Episode 32

“I will tell you only the most important parts as you wish. Hao Wen hopes to continue friendly relations with you.”

“It’s a friendly relationship.”

I sneered while fiddling with the sword soldier.

The expression “absurd” would be used in times like these.

‘Now what?’

If you really wanted to continue a relationship with me, you should have contacted me sooner.

After about a month of treatment, the woman who suffered from mental illness recovered her health to the point where she could take care of herself.

Afterwards, the woman disappeared along with the Haomundo who came with her.

And from that day on, all communication from Haomun stopped.

In the past two years, Hao Wen has not sent anyone to me even once.

Thank you for treating Moon Ju’s disciple?

An apology for arbitrarily misunderstanding and intimidating you?

Discussion about compensation?

There was absolutely nothing like that.

But now you want to continue friendly relations?

‘It’s a story that even a passing dog would laugh at.’

The excuse that he could not send someone because he was busy with the internal maintenance of the clan was somewhat flimsy.

Haomun was one of the largest martial arts sects in the entire central plain.

Their eyes, ears and mouths were everywhere.

Wasn’t Hao Mun-do among the Emperor’s servants?

It made no sense to say that I couldn’t contact you because I was busy.

There must have been any number of ways to contact him.

It’s just that I didn’t do that.

‘If you are caught up in the immediate benefits and do not consider right or wrong, the same situation will repeat itself in the future.’

It is good to restore a broken relationship.

But that had to be after the backlog of calculations had been completed.

All transactions must be conducted on equal footing.

Otherwise, a relationship is bound to be formed in which one party is exploited and loses money.

I wanted to pay a price to use Hao Wen’s information power, not to become their useful pawn.

“What do I believe in and continue doing business with Hao Wen? “It is a group that suddenly changes and threatens, disappears when it is at a disadvantage, and only makes contact again when it is needed.”

“Can you please not misunderstand it too much? If it happened two years ago, the conflict was due to a misunderstanding, and the reason we couldn’t contact you during that time was because there were unavoidable circumstances. “There…”

“Is that unavoidable situation the reorganization of the sect?”

“There seems to be some misunderstanding, but it’s not like Haomun hasn’t sent someone in the meantime.”

“……?”

“I and other leaders were unable to move directly, but they attempted to contact us. “That too several times.”

“What do you mean?”

“It looks like you don’t know. I heard that your teacher stopped you every time. “This is an important time for my student, so I will not allow contact.”

I had a blank expression for a moment.

If you think about it, it was quite possible.

Beginners of the White Lightning Divine Art are bound to be extremely weak until they have a solid foundation.

Because there are restrictions on the use of internal energy.

In a way, it may be natural for a teacher to reject outsiders who try to contact his disciple during such a sensitive period.

“Then how come you are in front of me right now?”

“I don’t know either. “Wouldn’t it be okay to think of it as an unspoken permission?”

“…….”

“If you think I made this up to avoid a situation, you can go and ask in person.”

“…..no. “You wouldn’t have lied if you were to be found out right away.”

I frowned slightly.

The situation has become very ambiguous.

‘Even if we blocked contact, we would have been able to give at least some words.’

It was not possible to accurately understand Dokgo Woojin’s intentions.

Did I want to rule out even the slightest risk factor? Or was it because of the ‘negative perception of Hao Wen’ that arose due to my lies?

Anyway, once I understood the context, I could no longer maintain a hostile attitude.

“I guess I misunderstood.”

“Have you ever thought about listening to the story?”

“yes.”

“I think I need some time to organize my thoughts. Shall we set a date and location and meet again next time?”

“Please do so.”

“Then, let’s meet at Cheonhwaru two days later, on auspicious occasion.”

“Cheonhwaru?”

“I don’t know? “It is the largest gilt in the capital.”

“I know the location of the red light district. “I’ve never set foot there.”

“There is a famous courtesan called Cheonhwa Cheonnyeo. Shall I invite you to join me?”

“That’s it.”

“It’s a rare opportunity, isn’t it? Even the most high-ranking officials have to make an appointment and wait for three months to see her?”

“Even though I know, I’m not stupid enough to fall for the beauty pageant.”

“That’s a funny reaction.”

Contrary to what he said, the masked man burst into laughter.

The next moment, the masked man’s new form disappeared as if melting into the darkness.

“…!”

It was an amazing feat.

Even though I was watching closely, it was difficult to catch her presence.

“then. “See you again in two days.”

I pursed my lips and an exclamation flowed out.

I muttered as I stared at the back of the woman who was quickly moving away.

‘I don’t think his level of skill is comparable to the man I met at Hwawolru.’

The end of the first class or the beginning of the peak.

However, when it came to specialized areas such as stealth, infiltration, and escape, she seemed to be far ahead.

It occurred to me that among the warriors of her age, there were few talented people who could compare to her.

‘I think I understand why Hao Wenju cares about his youngest disciple so much.’

I can’t believe he has that level of skill at that age.

It was hard to believe that there was a gap due to Simma.

It was clear that this was a talent that was not easy to find.

‘I can’t let down my guard.’

I shook my head and walked away.

My excitement subsided and my mind became calm.

‘I still have a long way to go.’

Meeting the masked woman served as an opportunity to calm my mind.

It wasn’t that I didn’t have the confidence to fight her and win.

However, he did not neglect his training to the point where he was pushed aside by martial artists of the same age.

However, the enemy I would have to deal with from now on was not just warriors of the same age.

Yongbong Branch (龍鳳之會)?

Although it was an important event, it was only a passing point.

‘What are you going to do right now with the skills that even the demon of evil spirits can’t do anything about?’

The world is wide and there are many strange people.

Among them, there were those who had the ability to see the world, and there were also those who had mastered the art of surpassing the masked woman.

My current skills were not enough to compete with them.

‘In the end, Moorim is all about strength.’

There was a lot of work to be done ahead.

The ultimate goal is to become an elder of the tribe.

In order to push out the vested interests of the Old Masters and the Five Great Families and take their place, he would have to achieve achievements that others could not even imagine.

Of course, you will need strength to achieve success.

Without strength, nothing could be achieved.

Without going far, I had to restore the state of my previous life in order to take revenge on my second brother, who had driven me to death in my previous life.

‘As long as you don’t become overconfident and neglect your training, it won’t take that long.’

Compared to my previous life, things were progressing incredibly quickly.

There was no need to be impatient.

On the other hand, you shouldn’t be too relaxed either.

I fiddled with the sword for no reason and made up my mind in my heart.

‘First, start with the immediate goal. Three years later, until the Yongbong branch opens, it breaks through the wall of transcendence.’

The distinction of realms spoken of by the world could not be said to be an accurate indicator of a martial artist’s skills.

Third-rate, second-rate, first-rate, supreme climax.

These were merely indicators that distinguished between the total amount of internal strength and the ability to operate it.

However, if I were to be asked to choose the most vulnerable thing among the mind and energy bodies, it would definitely be energy.

The reason why it was not easy to detect the presence of the masked person was also related to this.

The range of energy is somewhat proportional to the total amount of internal energy.

Although I made up for my lack of internal skills by learning the White Thunder Divine Technique and taking the Summoning Team, I still had a long way to go.

‘Transcendence. At least it will be a point of achievement for me.’

As long as the barrier to the peak is overcome, it may be okay to begin full-fledged powerhouse activities.

At that time, it won’t be difficult to take care of my own health.

‘If there’s still time to get to the Yongbong branch after crossing the wall… ‘It wouldn’t be a bad idea to go and get Reporter Cheon’s legacy.’

In any case, it was not a state that could be achieved through simple repetitive training.

Rather than meaninglessly wasting time, I thought it would be better to go out and gain the skills I had left behind due to my lack of ability.

Reporter Cheon.

A person who has learned a thousand tricks.

He was a master of the former era and the best true Buddhist practitioner in the world, and left various treasures in Bidong, where he spent his last years.

Not only the treasured sword and treasured armor, but also the true law diagram that a person from the Zhuge family would want to acquire even if he had to sell his soul.

Even if it means taking risks, it will be well worth the challenge.

‘It may be unlikely, but if you’re lucky, you might be able to obtain the elixir.’

* * *

Early dawn.

Standing in the middle of Dokgo Woojin’s private training hall, I pulled out the sword from my waist and took a deep breath.

Sigh!

The herbivores of Wolyeonggeom decorated the air brilliantly.

An overwhelming feeling came over me.

I haven’t neglected training the forms, but I have never properly practiced Chosik with my inner energy.

Maybe it was because it had been so long since I had been on the rise, but I felt a sense of strangeness.

‘amazing!’

The effectiveness of Baekrei Shingong, which I experienced firsthand, was surprising.

Even though I unfolded the same snack, it felt completely different than before.

‘The amount of internal energy required to spread herbivory has been greatly reduced.’

Due to the nature of the Wolyeonggeom as a circular sword, it was often herbivorous, requiring a huge amount of internal energy.

However, by deploying the Wolyeonggeom based on the White Thunder Godkong, the burden caused by it was significantly reduced.

To be more precise, the energy required to create an illusion has been reduced to two-thirds of the previous amount.

As the dense internal energy was unraveled like a skein of thread and transformed into an illusion, it became possible to achieve high efficiency with less internal energy.

‘On the contrary, the power of Silcho was doubled.’

Because each blow was so heavy, even if the same sword technique was used, the destructive power was incomparable to before.

I thought that when two herbivores who required a similar amount of internal strength clashed against each other, my side would not be pushed out.

‘I thought it would be good compatibility with the Hwangeom, but.’

Anyway, I didn’t know it would be like this.

It was the right choice to choose White Thunder Godkong as a martial arts replacement for Heavenly Demon Heart Attack.

I was sure of that once again.

‘But some adjustments are needed.’

Not only had I lost my senses due to not being able to properly practice herbivory over the past two years, but more than anything, I was unfamiliar with the distribution of internal energy.

This part is an area of experience and tips, so I had no choice but to gradually spend time practicing and researching.

I poured all my energy into the sword and used the second half of Wolyeonggeom’s attack.

Twenty-third herbivorous month (水月).

Pasasasasa!

The remnants that remained along the sword’s path crumbled into countless blades.

The herbivore flew towards the virtual enemy and mercilessly cut down the target.

‘Good.’

When I did the same herbivorous meal at Hwawollu, it put quite a strain on my blood vessels, but now I didn’t feel the slightest discomfort.

Although his output has increased by learning the techniques of Ascension, what is more important is that his blood vessels have become stronger thanks to the supernormal ability of Baekreui Shingong.

‘It’s an herbivore that consumes a lot of internal energy, so it shouldn’t be overused.’

There seemed to be no need to block the second half of the meal anymore.

I continued my training with a faint smile on my face.
