Moon-Shadow Sword Emperor

Chapter 224

Episode 224

“I’m leaving.”

Lord Beast Palace, who was standing with the support of the left guard and looking down at the window, blurted out.

The old man, Huigawon, who was watching the scene from behind, cautiously opened his mouth.

“Don’t be too upset.”

“Never mind. “Because I’m fine.”

“.......”

“I feel rather fortunate. Your body will die soon anyway. “I feel relieved because something that has been on my mind the entire time has been resolved.”

The fact that Woo Hwayeon was exiled to Jungwon was not known to the outside world.

Officially, she was supposed to have left everything and left the palace after becoming married to Seo Gon, the winner of the female martial arts competition.

It was for this purpose that I hosted the closing ceremony with all my might.

‘This is the only way.’

The only way to save Woo Hwayeon’s life was to let her escape Namman’s territory.

When other brothers ascended to the position of palace guard, she had no choice but to be the first to be purged.

The reason was simple.

Because there is Dokgok behind her.

On the other hand, there was a way to support her so that she could ascend to the top of the palace, but that method was out of the question because it would cost the lives of her other brothers.

It was also something the person concerned did not want to do.

“Palace...”

Huigawon made a sad expression.

The Lord of the Beast Palace, who commanded the entire southern Manchuria, was now an old man with not much time left to live.

How can you not feel anything when you say goodbye to a child you had at a late age?

With a wry smile on her lips, the Beast Prince took her hand off the window frame and continued talking.

“Anyway, how did you see it?”

“What do you mean?”

“Yeonsoun. “I’m asking you what feelings you felt when you saw that friend.”

“You mean Heavenly Dragon? It was definitely amazing. He has an incredibly detailed mind and outstanding eloquence that is hard to believe for someone so young. He was a person who was not left out of anything. “It reminds me of the palace lord of the past.”

“Is that all?”

“yes?”

The Beast Prince, who sat down on the bed with the help of the Left Guard, let out a faint cough.

Soon he looked back at Huigawon, who had a puzzled expression on his face, and continued talking.

“I felt afraid.”

“...!”

“I never felt this way even when I was fighting a life-or-death battle with the previous palace lord who was called a tyrant.”

I was not simply surprised by the potential that Yeonsun had.

The Beast Palace Lord knew.

Most of the palace executives who were initially wary and hostile toward Yeonsun are now showing a favorable attitude towards him.

“.......”

Huigawon swallowed dry saliva.

It was the first time I saw the palace lord use the expression fear when referring to someone.

‘You’re serious.’

I knew this because I had been by his side for decades.

What he says now is by no means a joke.

The Beast Prince quietly looked away and muttered as she stared into space with unfocused eyes.

“Whether attaching Hwayeon to Cheonryong will be good or bad for Southern Man society...” * *

*

Confucius Lee’s personal office.

“older brother. Are you going to leave them alone?”

“What if I don’t leave it alone?”

“Shouldn’t we take revenge?”

“Revenge. Are you going to attack the delegation returning to the central plains?”

“There’s nothing we can’t do, right?”

“It’s not worth considering. “Don’t involve me in useless matters.”

“older brother!”

Three Confucius, Wu Gyeonggon, slammed the desk with both hands and shouted.

This Confucius quietly put down his brush and opened his mouth, glaring at him with harsh eyes.

“I don’t think you know, but there is a poisonous king in the delegation. “Daejeon Commander Mu Jincheon is employed as a guide and escort.”

“.......”

“Even if you exclude the two people, there are five people who are at the level of top 100 experts. How do you plan to subdue them?”

“If my brother and I join forces, wouldn’t it be a task to pool our strength? He’s a little sick of poison, but he’s still over a hundred years old. “It may not be as good as it was in its prime.”

“From what you’re saying, it doesn’t seem like you have a proper plan.”

“No matter how strong they are, they are ultimately midfielders. There is no way they would be able to demonstrate their skills properly as they are not familiar with the climate and terrain of southern Manchuria. “If you mobilize skilled warriors, you will be able to hunt as much as you want.”

The bandits were frightened by the overwhelming demonstration of force and retreated.

“......?”

As I watched the situation, I felt puzzled and tilted my head.

Aren’t the thieves, who thought they were going to run away, readjust their stance and attack again?

This was something that normally couldn’t happen.

They probably don’t know that it’s like hitting a rock with an egg.

Kaang! Let’s go!

The envoys and a group of thieves became entangled and engaged in a fierce battle.

Although the envoys were outnumbered, the inaction of each person was incomparable to that of the bandits.

A one-sided massacre occurred.

The delegation quickly suppressed the group of bandits without causing any casualties.

‘It will be sorted out soon.’

As I was observing the situation while being protected by the Shaman sect’s Taoists, I slowly nodded.

Although I was concerned about the bandits’ strange behavior, I didn’t think there would be any major problems.

Kwaaaaang!

The next moment, a man rose up through the ground.

The fragments of the shattered cart flew in all directions.

I jumped reflexively, spotted the attacker, and burst out laughing.

‘I never would have guessed that he was hiding underground, waiting for an opportunity.’

Honestly, I was a little surprised.

I can’t believe I didn’t notice the presence of someone so close.

He was probably hiding his presence using the Great Law of Returning the Elderly.

“Kite Sohyeop!”

Tang Seo-yeon let out an urgent cry and took out the memorized book.

Instead of avoiding it, the attacker caught it with his forearm and swung the curved sword at me.

‘They attack themselves without taking care of themselves. ‘I was prepared to die.’

He wasn’t an average person.

I wasn’t just saying that martial arts skills were outstanding.

A child was born who received valuable professional training to be reborn as a murderous ghost.

Absolutely! Quick!

Brain energy formed on the surface of the drawn sword.

The fourth herbivorous month (斬月).

The sword strike, whose power was amplified by the use of special internal power, fell on the attacker’s head.

I feel sorry for the attacker, but his physical condition was not bad enough to warrant being attacked to this extent.

The recovery power of the White Thunder Divine Technique was so excellent that it could not be compared to other mental techniques.

Kwaaaaaaaa!

The moment the curved sword and the sword met, an explosion rang out.

The attacker’s new model was thrown roughly to the ground.

* * *

When the attackers were subdued, the bandits began to scatter and flee in all directions like grasshoppers.

The delegation had no choice but to leave them alone.

“......”

The masked man had already stopped breathing.

It wasn’t that he was killed because he couldn’t control his strength.

He committed suicide by biting off his own dog’s arm before even taking a blood test.

“Who on earth is this person?”

Dojang, an elder of the Shaman faction, looked down at the corpse of the masked man and muttered.

Everyone was thinking of similar questions.

The attacker had an inaction that clearly distinguished him from other thieves.

There was no way that the powerful person who shattered the cart with a single blow was the leader of a group of thieves.

‘Are these assassins sent by this or the third Confucius?’

I thought that maybe someone with a grudge against me had sent an assassin.

I don’t know who it was, but they did something for which I am truly grateful.

Thanks to the attacker’s attention, ‘he’ was able to escape safely from the envoy’s eyes.

“omg!”

A cry of embarrassment erupted.

The group’s eyes all turned to the source of the noise.

“Why are you doing that?”

“It’s gone!”

Hwangbo-gyeong, an elder of the Hwangbo family, shouted, pointing his index finger at the broken iron rope.

“......?”

“A great guest! “That guy is gone!”
