“yes….?”
Cheongyun foolishly asked back at the firm refusal. Although he came alone, he was visiting the Tang family with an important mission of his own. To receive a promise of assistance from a party that has the power to destroy the Black Silhouette.
Not long ago, the shaman had a close encounter with Ma Gwang-cheon. The area near Yongzhong Mountain, where the Zhuge family was located, is also close to Wudang Mountain. There is no way the shaman would not notice the presence of Ma Gwang-cheon who invaded the Zhuge family. Of course he sent reinforcements. Just in case, Geomjon (劍尊) personally led his disciples and moved, and not long after the battle began, they encountered Majwang Cheonju Yeonghyeok.
―It would be best for shamans not to interfere further with the main body’s events. Unless you want to be wiped out next time.
Nae Yeon-hyeok blocked Geomjon and issued a warning. Geomzon Song Cheong was in conflict for a short time and eventually decided to retreat, taking his disciples with him. Less than half a day later, the Zhuge family was destroyed.
Cheongyun understood the decision of Song Cheong, his master at the time. It was obviously humiliating to retreat in front of Ma Gwang-cheon, but he could have suffered irreparable damage if he fought Ma Gwang-cheon too much. In particular, Geomzon Songcheong was a barrier that protected the shaman as a being of peace. If Songcheong dies or is injured, the shaman’s headquarters will be in immediate danger. Although Jongnam and Hwasan are located nearby in Shaanxi, they also do not have the resources these days to keep in check the Fahrenheit family, which has emerged as the Three Demonic Families.
Above all, isn’t Zhuge a foreigner? They don’t belong to any of the six factions, and are just a fallen family. Even when they were called the Five Great Families, they did not come and go very often, so there was no need to risk their lives to save them.
Cheongyun thought that other capital punishment people probably had similar thoughts.
Immediately after returning to the headquarters. Geomjon Song Cheong looked at Jangmun with a serious face. He said that Ma Gwang-cheonju’s achievements could not be estimated when he met him face-to-face, and argued that now that the enemy called Heuksa-ryeon had disappeared, he should gather the strength of the Jeongdo forces, including the six factions, to attack Ma Gwang-cheon. In particular, it is said that the assistance of the Tang family that destroyed the Heuksaryeon is essential.
That’s how Cheongyun was dispatched.
“So Family Lord. How can you refuse so bluntly… We are not asking for your full support. Since you just recently fought a battle with Black Dragon and Bangpa, we fully understand that you may not have enough time to spare. “If only the available number of people could be supported…”
Although he said so, Cheongyun knew that the Tang family had not suffered as much damage as he thought. First of all, don’t Gaju Tang Ji-hye and So Gaju Yeon Myeong, the core members of the Tang family, look fine? Most of the warriors I saw as they moved to the reception hall and to the reception area, as well as those guarding the outer garden, had only minor injuries. I couldn’t figure out why the Tang family’s small family suddenly became uncooperative.
Yeon-myeong shook his head without even listening to Cheong-yun’s words until the end.
“Let me be clear. “The main family does not want to do anything to attack Ma Gwang-cheon.”
“…Why? If you are also a warrior who walks the path, are you going to just sit back and watch that group of magicians run wild?”
It’s the right way – Yeonmyeong laughed.
“What do you think, Master?”
“…Do you want to have a Zen question with me now?”
“I’m just asking. Other than just eradicating Sima’s hordes, what is the goal of the current Jeongdo faction? In particular, I would like to ask the shaman.”
“Honestly, it’s a little unpleasant. It’s as if they’re interrogating a criminal. Hmm. Anyway, since Lord Soga asked, I’ll give you the answer as a shaman’s disciple.”
Cheongyun began to explain. I hope that the current answer will help secure the party’s support.
What is the standard of degree—
Taking care of the weak and stabilizing people’s livelihoods.
Just because you have power, you do not show it or use it carelessly.
Do not tolerate injustice.
You should not covet power, wealth, or authority through wrong means, but should only obtain them through legitimate efforts.
Cheongyun continued his speech in a stern tone. Yeon Myeong just listened quietly until he finished speaking.
“I don’t know how I got the answer. Sogaju.”
“thank you. But after listening to it, I have even more doubts. “Why did the shaman, even though he had such a great banner, turn away from Zhuge Family, who was in danger?”
“…What are you talking about?”
“The main family was busy for a while after subduing the Black Silent Army, but they did not close their eyes and ears. I already told you that they knew the situation in Hubei. Moreover, Ma Guang-cheon, who had started to stir up, did not move secretly, so they were the ones who destroyed the Zhuge family. “I know that the Gwi faction also came into contact with Ma Gwang-cheon for a while and then retreated.”
“…that.”
“In fact, didn’t you neglect the destruction of the Zhuge family? It was for the safety of Jafar.”
As soon as he heard the news of the extinction of the Zhuge and Moyong families, Yan Yanming sensed that difficult times were imminent. He dispatched people to understand the situation in various ways, and especially instructed them to find out in detail about the extinction of the Zhuge family. Because there might be survivors. However, it is said that the Zhuge family was completely destroyed by Ma Gwang-cheon, leaving no trace of grass roots behind. There were quite a few civilians who witnessed the situation at the time, and there was even a story from a shaman. It was obvious why they withdrew even after mobilizing their swords. It must be because Ma Gwang-cheonju Yeon Yeon-hyeok appeared.
“After the Nine Sects became the Six Sects, the Daebang Sects, including the shamans, were busy taking care of the safety of the Japa. When Ma Gwang-cheon first defeated the Murim Alliance and settled in Hubei, what did you do? “Didn’t you just ignore it because most of the people who made up the Murim League were from small or medium-sized sects or Korean-American samurai families?”
Yeon-myeong’s voice rose slightly as if scolding him, but Cheong-yun could not say anything. This is because it was just before that he spoke as if he was giving a sermon, talking about the principles of degree.
“Also, when Ma Gwang-cheonju Yeon Yeon-hyeok expanded his power by destroying the shaman families one by one, using marriage and eccentricity, the six factions just watched with bated breath. In the end, the Bon family, Zhuge family, and Mo Yong family, who were the five great families, suffered a blow that was close to destruction. It is said that the nine factions and the five generations had the same level of power, but they kept each other in check and competed with each other. In that case, wasn’t it possible that the three factions were cut out of the nine factions by the Black Devils to balance the power? “It means that they were concerned that the power of the government would grow even greater.”
“Never, never!”
Cheongyun was shocked. He did not come to the enemy’s camp, but came to ask for assistance, so he visited with a somewhat light heart, but the attitude shown by Soga Ju Yeon-myeong was unusual. Isn’t it as if the six factions used Ma Gwang-cheon to reduce the power of the five generations, just like the Chado murder system? Now, distrust and suspicion were evident in his tone of voice. Rather than asking for help, I was at a point where I had to sweat for an explanation.
“Ma Gwang-Cheonju’s inaction is truly monstrous. He was originally the leader of a small cult of Demon Cult, and not only is he well-versed in all kinds of magic arts, but he also quickly mastered all the magic martial arts that he was born with as a Heavenly Martial Body. Moreover, most of the Demon Gwang-Cheon troops he leads are also They are figures of the Demonic Cult, and it means that they were already strong when they settled in Hubei, although Cheongseong, Ami, and Jeomchang were destroyed and our six factions suffered. “It was a burdensome task for one Bangpa to step forward and attack Majwangcheon.”
Cheongyun continued speaking urgently.
“I don’t know if it was specifically aimed at, but as the Murim Alliance collapsed due to Ma Gwang-cheon, the central point that could have concentrated the power of the Jeongdo Murim disappeared. The Murim Alliance had a complete command system and a justification for recruiting troops that had been agreed upon between the nine factions and the five generations. That disappeared entirely. As time passed, three of the five great families suffered great damage… Of course, in the case of returning home, since it was located in the territory of the Black Silent Alliance, the main faction was cautious about sending reinforcements.”
After saying that, Cheong-yun looked at Yeon-myeong’s feelings. The relationship with the party should not become soured now. The Tang family is a family that owns as many as two warriors of Hwagyeong. As time passed, it would regain its status as a Sega and become known as the No. 1 family in Sacheon. No, among those who heard the news of the destruction of Black Silhouette, there were already many who said that. It was necessary to establish as friendly a relationship as possible. Even if I don’t get help in subjugating Demon Gwangcheon.
Before she knew it, seeking help from the Tang family had already taken a backseat in Cheongyun’s mind. He had unknowingly lost his original purpose. It was the result of a clever speech method of obvious names.
“I didn’t mean to blame the six factions. I think the major families at the time were also at fault. They got to that point by ignoring the samurai who needed help.”
Yeon-myeong spoke in a more subdued tone. Now that you have taken control of the conversation, you can reveal what you want.
In fact, even if the shaman had not come to visit, Yeon-myeong was planning to hit Ma Gwang-cheon. As Jeon Yeon-hyeok said, his mother went through trials and the pain of loss due to his unusual eccentricity. It is worth defining it as resentment. And a Tang family man will repay his grudges tenfold—
However, he did not want to obediently respond to Yukpa’s request for cooperation. I didn’t like people who only thought about Jafar’s safety, and I still do. You probably don’t know that among the six factions, Kunlun and Gong are engaged in a battle against the Demonic Cult. However, the remaining four breakwaters remained motionless. I heard it was like that from the beginning. While praising himself as the gatekeeper of the martial arts world in the central region, he has entrusted the task of stopping the demonic religion to Kunlun alone. At least the community was the only one who helped Kunlun. That may be because they know that if Kunlun falls, it will be their turn.
If it were so bad, he would have come to the fallen Tang family in the community and asked for help. It seemed like there was some kind of conflict between the six factions.
‘It’s difficult to do this.’
After the collapse of Heuksaryeon, Yeon Yeon-myeong decided to fill the now empty Sichuan martial arts with Jeongdo forces. After all, the party cannot manage the entire land of Sichuan alone. However, when I heard the story from Zhuge Changsin, I realized that the martial arts world was a complete mess. I don’t know if it was because of the long period of peace, but they foolishly neglected it until the forces of the apostles and magicians prospered so much.
I really didn’t like it. In particular, I heard that the author, Geomjon of the Shaman, went to save the Zhuge family and encountered Yeo Yeon-hyeok and cut off his tail without even fighting properly. Is it meaningful to establish a banner that is only erected when the situation is favorable? Can such a thing really be called the right way?
‘It would be better to create a new path with my own hands.’
This was the obvious conclusion.
“After listening to what you said.”
Yeon Myeong opened his mouth again.
“I think we need to resolve the absence of the Murim Alliance. It seems like the most urgent task is to create a focal point that will unite the power of the Murim Alliance.”
“…Are you willing to help?”
“As I said, I have no intention of adding strength to dealing with Ma Gwang-cheon. “At least for the time being.”
“if…?”
“There are not only demonic groups. The main family plans to attack the Demonic Bridge first. By adding strength to Kunlun.”
In my opinion, that was the right order. If the Demonic Cult is defeated, Kunlun and Gonggong will also not have to worry about what’s going on. It will be much easier if you gather all the power of the six factions to deal with Demon Gwangcheon.
Rather, I would like to talk about the new central point of Jeongdo Moorim— As Yeon Myeong said that, his eyes sparkled. In order to live a normal and stable life, Geomsin now wanted to establish the right path. Right here on earth.
“Here in Sacheon, we want to create a new Murim Alliance.”
Sacheon, which would later become a new sacred place for the Jeongdo martial arts, was the beginning of the Jeongcheonmaeng (正天盟) that stood tall there.
