Moon-Shadow Sword Emperor

Chapter 297

Episode 297:

The outskirts of the Sichuan branch of the Murim League.

Inside the newly expanded accommodation.

A young man stood in front of the door with a nervous face.

A single plum blossom was drawn on the sleeve of the uniform he was wearing.

“Come in.”

Before I could ask for permission, a grayish voice came from inside.

The young man who opened the door and entered the room bowed politely and said.

“Buddhist disciple Cheonwoo sends greetings to his teacher.”

“You’re suddenly doing things you don’t normally do. “Why are you being so formal?”

“I have come to ask Master for permission.”

“allow?”

“...The Sacheon branch manager came to me the night before and said, “I will use a token of gratitude.”

Cheonwoo Dojang, a young man who could not easily open his mouth and hesitated before getting to the point, scratched his cheek with his index finger.

The Noh Taoist’s Plum Blossom Shingeom (梅花神劍) Hyeongun seal corrected the loose posture.

“Keep talking.”

“He told me to come under him.”

“Is it true that I told you to become a blind sword?”

“yes.”

Hyeongun Dojang let out a laugh.

What will happen to the Hwasan Sect if the next Plum God Sword joins the group?

Even though the weight of the reward was not light, it was an absurd request.

“I think you know that the Sacheon branch manager has been promoted and is planning to move to the main branch of the Maeng.”

“Of course I know.”

“And do you know what position he got?”

“I’ve never heard anything like that.”

“It is said that a new department called Cheonan Inspectorate will be established. “They said that the Inspection Department and the Legislative Assembly will be abolished and that this is the department that will take over the work they used to do.”

“That’s an interesting story.”

“It looks like they are recruiting people to join the newly established department. “That’s why the Sacheon branch manager came to visit me.”

“.......”

“Of course, I didn’t force you to leave the Huashan Sect forever. Cheonan Gambu’s activity period was until the end of the Jeongma Daejeon. “Once the war is over and the organization is disbanded, we will be able to return to the monastic order.”

“Hmm.”

“They also said that since the administrative procedures had already been completed, all I had to do was take the entrance exam.”

Hyeongun Dojang rubbed his chin and was lost in thought.

Even if everything Cheonwoo Dojo said was true, it was clear that the Sacheon branch manager had asked too much.

Who knows how many years it will take until the war between political and evil forces ends?

‘I wonder how much they are trying to exploit people with just one token of gratitude.’

It was literally a request without conscience.

But...

“I said I wanted to ask for permission. “It looks like you’ve already made up your mind.”

“yes.”

“Do you want to repay your debt to the Sichuan branch leader?”

“There are things like that, but I want to see it with my own eyes. “The Murim Alliance is changing because of that.”

“good night.”

Hyeongun Dojang nodded his head calmly.

Perhaps because permission was given more easily than expected, Dojang Cheonwoo looked puzzled.

“Anyway, there isn’t much you can learn from me right now. “Because you are already pioneering your own path.”

“.......”

“Don’t worry about the recluse. “Even if you disappear, nothing will change.”

“...I don’t know whether I should be happy or react in shock.”

“It wouldn’t be a bad idea to gain some experience at this time. “Go and perform in a manner worthy of the name of a recluse.”

“All right.”

Dojang Cheonwoo responded by nodding and bowed once.

Hyeongun Dojang looked at the scene with happy eyes.

Suddenly he looked up at the ceiling and muttered to himself.

‘Anyway, I’m worried. What on earth are they trying to make me do with the tokens of gratitude they received from me...’

* * *

“Stop talking loudly.”

Tangbaekgun revealed his martial prowess, which had been hidden behind the scenes in the last defensive battle, and took the throne of the Ten Heavenly Emperors.

In his previous life, he inherited the nickname of Poison King from Dang Sang-jin, but in his current life, there was no vacancy in the position of king, so he was called the nickname of Ghost.

Seo-yeon Dang, who was sitting next to me, looked very nervous.

It wasn’t too much of a stretch.

Depending on one’s perspective, what she and I will say to Dangbaekgun could be seen as a challenge to the Four Heavenly Dangga.

“So, what is the business?”

“There is something I would like to request from the head of the family.”

“Let me tell you.”

“I am thinking of making Sojeo Party a member of the Cheonan Department in the future. Please allow it.”

“Is it your will or Yuna’s will?”

“It means both of you.”

Dangbaekgun’s gaze turned to Dangseoyeon’s direction.

Seo-yeon Tang held her breath without realizing it.

“Is that true?”

“That’s right. “Matriarch.”

The head of the family, not the father.

The title made it clear that this was a public story.

Dangbaekgun’s eyes narrowed.

It’s not like he’s really giving off any momentum.

My body became as heavy as water-soaked cotton.

‘I can’t really tell what you’re thinking.’

Nothing could be read from Dangbaek’s expressionless face.

Although I felt anxious, I had already taken a step forward.

I continued speaking.

“I know the family rules of the Tang family. “I wonder what restrictions are placed on direct blood relatives who have learned the family’s vision.”

“Are you saying you asked me that without knowing?”

“The newly established Cheonan Gambu needs diverse talents.”

“If you simply need talent, you could randomly select one of the family members. “I can only think there was some other intention in choosing Yuna.”

“I won’t deny it.”

“There is no problem in itself with a Tang family warrior acting as a leader. “It’s not like there aren’t actually Germans dispatched to Vietnam.”

Among the numerous martial powers, the Tang family was famous as a family that hated leaks of its vision.

Closed tendency.

Because of this, even the Murim Alliance could not easily interfere in the affairs of the Four Heavenly Dang Family.

On the contrary, the influence of the party on the Murim Alliance was not that great.

In fact, among the elders of the Murim Alliance, there were no Tang figures.

Basically, this was because the Tang family participated in the work of the Meng only by dispatching warriors in turns.

“The problem is your relationship with Yuna. “You understand what I’m saying, right?”

“Of course I understand.”

I nodded as if I had been waiting.

‘Now we get to the point.’

It would have been easier to ask for permission if it had been explained that the period of activity of the Cheonan Inspectorate was set and that at the end of that period, the procedure for resigning could be taken.

But I decided not to do that.

Tang Seoyeon was different from Cheonwoo Dojo or Changin Dojo.

He was someone I would keep by my side forever.

So, we had to make a clear deal at this point.

I looked straight into Dangbaek’s eyes and opened my mouth.

“Nevertheless, I will ask you again. I would like to accept Sojeo as a member of Cheonan Gambu. And one more thing. “I am also thinking of marrying Sojeo once the Great War is over.”

“...!”

Sacheondanga has a bad habit that anyone who has ever been in martial arts knows.

Rules derived from strict family customs.

In order to form a relationship with a woman with the Tang family name, he had to join the Tang family as a son-in-law.

In other words, in order to marry Tang Seo-yeon, I had to give up becoming an elder of the clan.

‘That can’t be possible.’

Of course, I had no intention of giving up my goal for marriage.

That is why we created this opportunity to meet Tangbaekgun face to face.

I know the Dang Family’s rules, but Dang Seo-yeon and I are trying to force ourselves to make an exception.
