Chapter 1577 Take it somewhere. (2)
“Hurry!”
The court shouted at the top of its voice.
“more! Faster! “Do not delay even a moment!”
The face of the legal community looking at the court’s back was serious.
That’s right, the legal world has long treated him with the death penalty and as a prisoner. But this was the first time that the court seemed as urgent as it did now.
“Director! It’s too fast! At this rate, we will tire out before we reach the enemy!”
“Stop being complacent, Dharma!”
The court’s angry roar erupted in response to the concerns of the legal community.
“Are you tired? Does that mean Moore is important now?! In the first place, this is war! “Don’t you know that situations where you face the enemy in a perfect state are only found in military records?”
“Ha, one…”
“What is more important than doing your best is not failing! If you lose that guy now, there’s no telling how much more you’ll have to sacrifice! “Now is not the time to think backwards!”
The legal world pursed its lips. Pengyeop’s voice was also heard in agreement.
“line. “I also think what the manager said is correct.”
“⋯⋯Matriarch.”
Pengyeop fiercely kicked the ground and said.
“The most important thing now is to track down the defeated army. “If we miss this opportunity and he flees to Gangnam again, we will have to repeat this absurd confrontation again.”
The face of the legal world darkened.
How can you not know that what you say is not wrong?
I am now confused as to when I left Seongsan. He got to the point where he couldn’t even tell whether he was a monk or a general.
That said, I can’t help but miss the days when I was immersed in Zen Buddhism at Seongsan.
I was literally sick of it. This war and the defeated army.
If I could end everything with this one battle and return to Seongsan, I was confident that Beopgye would be the first to step forward and fight like Sura.
“But this is too extreme. Isn’t this the old school’s way? Calm down a little…”
“So shouldn’t we do even more!”
“⋯⋯Long text?”
Zhong Li looked at the court as if he was frustrated.
“As the Ambassador said, this is not the approach we have taken so far. So they won’t expect us to move like this.”
“That’s…”
After hearing it, it made sense. Even those in the legal community who have been around for a long time never thought that the court would take such a sudden and drastic approach.
No matter how much the defeated army seems to be playing with the world, wouldn’t it be difficult to predict the old faction’s movements?
“The opportunity has finally come. “This is your chance to cut off that loser’s head!”
Zhongli-hyung’s eyes shone coldly. It was completely different from what the legal world had seen so far.
It’s unfamiliar, but maybe this is Jong Li-hyung’s true face. It would not have been possible to obtain a position as the leader of a faction large enough to belong to the old faction just by being a good person.
Beopjeong and Pengyeop also silently looked at the legal system, as if agreeing with Zong Lihyeong’s words. I felt an unspoken pressure. The legal world had no choice but to bow its head in the end.
“⋯⋯I understand what you mean.”
The question still remains in my heart.
Even if all that is true, there is no need to be in such a hurry. The Sapae-ryeon, who have already entered deep into Gangbuk, will not be able to take her out easily, so she can just leisurely push them away.
But I couldn’t bring myself to say it out loud.
This is because the legal community also knows the real reason why they are in such a hurry.
“Where is he now?”
“yes? Ah… “If you are a defeated army, now…”
“no.”
The court cut off the legal world.
“That’s the word.”
The legal community belatedly realized who the court was asking about.
This person doesn’t need to be mentioned right now.
“⋯⋯If it is the Huashan Sword Association, it has been confirmed that it is currently located in Anhui.”
“Are you sure?”
“Yes, manager. “The information provided by the government, the news sent by small and medium-sized factions, and the information sent by our own informants are consistent.”
The court nodded heavily. The eyes were cool.
Cheongmyeong is not here now. He may be able to hear the news from Anhui, but no matter how quickly he judges and gives accurate instructions, he will not be able to respond faster than the old faction that has already started moving.
That means that the opportunity to end this war fell entirely in the hands of the old faction, or more precisely, in the hands of the court.
It makes no sense to miss this golden opportunity.
‘You also know that the one who wins in the end is the true winner.’
The opportunity is finally within reach. The court shouted, clenching her fists as if she would not miss this.
“Encourage the children! Let’s go without slowing down!”
“Yes, room manager.”
After looking back at his disciples, Beopjeong looks straight ahead again.
What he is aiming for is Jang Il-so’s head.
The destination for this was a brilliant land that would achieve glory for the next hundred years.

“According to reports, those who went to Yangtze River decapitated the Black Dragon King!”
Hyeonjong suddenly stood up. As soon as I heard it, a person’s face came into my mind.
“Che, Cheongmyeong! “Did Cheongmyeong do this?”
“no! It is said that the Musketeers did not participate in this battle. “This was entirely accomplished by the late leaders of Nangung Sogaju and Jongnam, including Oh Geom.”
“Oh my…”
Hyunjong was momentarily dazed, as if he had lost his mind.
After a while, he suddenly came to his senses and asked the question he should have asked.
“The children! “How are the children?”
“Some people were injured, but fortunately there were no deaths. Nangong Sogaju suffered a fatal wound, but it is said that he will be able to recover after treatment.”
“iced coffee.”
Hyeonjong let out a soft exclamation and fell back down.
I was so anxious that I couldn’t control my stomach, but when I heard that the children were safe, all my tension melted away.
“The Black Dragon King… those children…”
I’ve imagined it. The scene where the disciples cut off the head of Madou, who was disturbing the world, and were praised throughout the world.
No, actually, I had imagined it countless times.
How fun and happy will it be? How proud would you be?
However, after experiencing something that I could only imagine, there is no room for pride to come to mind. I am just relieved and relieved that the children are safe. A feeling of exhaustion pressed down on my body.
On the other hand, Tanggunak was still tense.
“Have we received a response to the news we sent?”
“Not yet.”
“⋯⋯Not yet?”
“It seems that the report sent after finishing the Black Dragon King reached us first.”
Tang Gunak’s fingertips are slightly trembling.
“What about Gupa…?”
“We are now approaching Sapaeryeon. If the current trend continues, we will encounter it within today.”
“It’s today…”
Tanggunak tapped the desk with his fingertips. It was a movement that showed nervousness.
“Are you still not asking for our cooperation?”
“Instead of cooperating, they are ignoring even the telegram sent from here. “Delivery through openness also does not work.”
“That guy in the court…”
Tang Gunak bit his lips tightly.
No matter what happened, he never lost the slightest respect and referred to the court as ‘head of the court’, but now he was angry enough to refer to the court directly by its name.
“What on earth are you thinking, now…!”
The opponent is Sapaeryeon and even Jang Il-so. You clearly know that this is not an easy opponent to compete with for the ball, so why are you putting so much effort into it at this point?
Was the court this thoughtless?
The answer to Tanggunak’s concerns came not from the court a thousand miles away, but from the mouth of Lim So-byeong.
“Complete exclusion.”
Tang Gunak’s gaze turned to Lim So-byeong.
“There is no room to worry. What they are aiming for is complete exclusion. “They won’t even give Cheon Woo-maeng a chance to step forward.”
“In this situation?”
“Especially in a situation like this. “Isn’t it truly a political faction?”
There was a hint of cynicism on Lim So-byeong’s mouth.
Tanggunak felt as if his heart was being stabbed by the cold.
If dying because of one’s own desires is a sad faction, dying because of obsession with fame and position is a political faction.
Lim So-byeong’s smile spoke to Tang Gunak. It’s just that the direction is different, but in the end it’s the same.
“The King of Green Forest, no… Military.”
“yes.”
Lim So-byeong looked at Tang Gunak with serious eyes. Tanggunak asked.
“The situation… No, what are the odds? “If the Sapae-ryeon and the old faction clash like this, what do you think will be the outcome?”
Lim So-byeong closed his eyes as if contemplating for a moment. And again he answered firmly, as if there was nothing more to think about when he opened his eyes.
“It’s a landslide victory for the old faction.”
“⋯⋯A landslide victory? “Like that?”
“I’ve thought about it several times, but there is no room for a different outcome. If things continue like this, the SPA League will literally suffer a crushing defeat.”
Tanggunak was silent.
However, Lim So-byeong continued his opinion without waiting for a response.
“They call it the Four Leagues, but the only forces moving north now are the Manin Gang, centered around Jang Il-so, and the Black Demons, who have lost much of their power. Hao Wen has not returned yet.”
“⋯⋯That’s right.”
“Even if all three forces exist, it will not be easy to deal with the alliance of Shaolin, Gong, and Peng. Even if Shaolin’s full power is not intact. But if there are only two forces…”
This is a very common sense and natural assessment.
If Tenmanbang and Black Demon had the ability to sweep the world on their own, there is no way the peace of Ganghu would have lasted this long.
Most of the notoriety of the Sapaeryun came from the things Jang Il-so did over the past few years that went beyond common sense.
But fame is just fame.
Unless there is no way to create new power that is lacking, it will be difficult to overcome the weakness of the SPA.
“But there’s no way the defeated army wouldn’t know that, right?”
“⋯⋯That’s right.”
“I could have chosen to go north because I had a planned plan, whether it was to bring Hao Mun in sooner or to set up a trap.”
“Of course it is. And the court probably knows that too.”
“You know it could be a trap? But is it still that simple?”
“yes.”
“why?”
“Only by jumping into that trap can you take Jang Il-so’s head.”
“⋯⋯.”
“And traps don’t always work. A trap set to catch a wolf cannot catch a tiger, and a trap set to catch a tiger cannot catch a dragon. “It is nothing more than the arrogance of those who discuss military tactics with three inches of tongue to say that everything can be prevented even if one knows and prepares.”
It was a cold and cold assessment.
“The reason why the surprising victories of those who are behind in power continue to be talked about is because it is obvious and natural that those who are ahead in power will win. But why would the old faction hesitate?”
Tang Gunak nodded heavily. There is no mistake in every word of this statement.
If they fight head to head, the old faction is stronger. This is close to common sense.
So, from the court’s perspective, this opportunity cannot be missed. If he hesitates again this time and passes the opportunity to Cheon Woo-maeng or Sapae-ryeon, he will be recorded in the history of the world as an idiot.
However…
‘Why am I so anxious though?’
The image of Jang Il-so does not disappear from my mind.
Are you really unaware of all this? Is he really overconfident in his own plans and putting himself in danger?
If so, what should Cheonwoo-meng do now?
It was that moment.
“Here’s a report!”
The door burst open and someone rushed in.
“They say the old faction’s advance is faster than expected! At this rate, by now! “The two forces would have met by now…!”
Tanggunak suddenly stood up.
“now?”
A moment of hesitation. Or, due to the short period of time that should be called waiting, Cheon Woo-maeng was ‘excluded’.
❀ ❀ ❀
“Hmm.”
Jang Il-so narrowed his oily eyes even more.
A group of people advancing from the distant plains came into view.
“It’s the enemy!”
“The enemy is coming!”
They also noticed the group around them and began to raise their voices and take a alert stance.
“Less…”
The uniform colors of those in the lead stand out. Dressed in yellow-orange lyrics.
They were rushing fiercely like Sura.
“Shaolin!”
“It’s Shaolin! “The old school guys are coming!”
In an instant, a tense feeling appeared. Except for one person.
“Oh my…”
Jang Il-so shook his head excitedly.
“It looks like you’re really excited to have already arrived. Those guys with heavy hips must have sweat dripping down their soles. Isn’t that right, pseudonym?”
“⋯⋯Ryeonju.”
“What you want is probably…”
White, smooth fingers slowly traced my neck.
“I guess it’s this neck?”
The corners of the blood-red mouth rose eerily. A sparkle flashed in her eyes, which were bent by her laughter.
“Take it somewhere. “It may not be that easy, though.”
Eventually, the long fingernails slowly grew horizontally across the straight neck.
A stream of blood flowed from the red line that followed the hand gesture. As if foreshadowing the amount of blood that will be poured on this land from now on.
