There is always an uncomfortable position in the world.
It would be perfect if it could be avoided, but in life, there are situations where you have to face inevitably.
Hyun Jong was just like that.
My stomach hurts.’
It's been a long time since Chung-Myung had a stinging stomach when he wasn't even in front of him.
He looked at those who were sitting in front of him.
In a place where Hwasan's disciples used to sit around and look at him with reverence, now the masters of each literary faction were sitting and staring at him.
It was easy to guess that hostility was not a child's view, but it was never a favor.
The old file room and Oh Dae-se.
the prestigious people who rule the present powerhouse
Of course, Hyun Jong had already encountered the long-running writers of each of the literary circles in one place at a world-class festival.
But now I'm in a different position than then.
At that time, he was nothing more than a support for Hwasan's disciples among the writers who were not particularly interested in him. But now he was in a position to take their eyes off him.
It would not have been easy to accept this heavy look without the heads of Chun Woo-meng protecting them.
"Amitabha Buddha."
Bop Kye, sitting in the middle, still memorized disapproval and looked at Hyun Jong with a deep look.
"First of all, congratulations on the breakthrough of the Heavenly Union, my lord."
It was called a blind man, not a man of letters. This meant that Shaolin would acknowledge Hyun Jong as the dominant player of Chun Woo-men and treat him accordingly.
Of course, things have gone this far, so even Shaolin can't help it, but receiving Shaolin's notarization was significant in the stronghold.
"Thank you."
Hyun Jong smiled brightly.
"I feel a little comfortable with the elder's words."
"Hahaha."
Bop Kye quietly smiled.
Perhaps because of the laughter, the atmosphere in the hall began to unravel very slightly.
"The strong people are very interested in the alliance."
"Yes."
"Please make efforts for the well-being and peace of the strong on behalf of the strong."
"Do you mean this?"
Bop Kye was not particularly hostile to the affiliation.
This is because Bop Jeong is not so hostile to the alliance in the first place. Bop Jeong has already acknowledged and notarized the break-up of Chun Woo-mang in a deal with Chung-Myung.
Besides...
'Definitely...'
Bop Kye could clearly understand what Bop Jeong meant before coming here. I could feel a slight nervousness in the faces of Myung-sook who sat on his left and right.
Until now, the prestigious members of Kangho have been scattered like grains of sand and have not established a proper coalition. And Shaolin, who has to be the center, has also lost a lot of influence over them.
If there's no one to stand up to, there's no reason to stick together.
If they judge that listening to Shaolin is not beneficial, it is impossible to control everyone no matter how great Shaolin is.
It is never bad for Shaolin, who was losing control of the old school, to have an external alliance called Chun Woo-men because he was humiliated by the world's low-key arena.
Of course.
It bothers me that middle and high school students are in politics like this, but the world can't just live clean and clean, right?
"Amitabha Buddha."
Anyway, all of this was insincere.
"The head of the headquarters has high expectations for the alliance. Please……."But it was just the moment.
"I think Elder Bop Kye is too gentle. This may not be a big deal for those who follow the law, but those who follow the laws of the world cannot be handed over so easily."
Bop Kye and others turned to where the words came from.
Lee Byeok of Cheongseong was staring at Hyun Jong with cold eyes.
His eyes soon left Hyun Jong and turned to Dang Gunnak.
"Throwing stones into the lake will cause a stir. It's hard for me to guess why Chun Woo-mang is so united in this peaceful powerhouse that it inspires tension."
"Rather than nervous…….”
"Are you sure that's not the intention?"
The last question was not for Hyun Jong or Dang Gunnak, but for others.
"Well."
"Well."
The sound of pain leaked out of the mouths of other masterpieces.
Cheongseong is a munpa located in Sacheon. A prestigious place closer to Sacheondang than any other place in the world.
Of course, the relationship between Sacheon Dangga and Cheongseong is not enough to grind their teeth and pull their swords out like Hwasan and Jongnam, but it is even stranger if the Munpas located close to each other are on good terms.
If the distance is close, the areas overlap, so we have to share the interest, and compete for the same thing. It may be possible to maintain a moderately good relationship only at first, but as the years pile up, it is inevitable that enmity remains.
That's why Cheongseong's two walls react so sensitively.
"Who can say anything about people gathering together to create a blind faith? But it's hard to just celebrate when you don't know what the blind will do."
Hyun Jong frowned slightly at the overly straightforward remarks.
"The League of Heaven is by no means a place to seek a victory. What the elder thinks won't happen."
"If you do!"
This wall looked right at Hyun Jong.
"Do you mean that if the text has a problem with that Sichuan and they point their swords at each other, he won't get involved in it?"
“…….”
"Are you saying that you will leave the affairs of the Munpa aside from the right and wrong? I don't think that's what I've seen."
Hyun Jong, who closed his mouth as if he was speechless for a moment, he closed his eyes. Having calmed himself down for a moment, he opened his eyes again and smiled gently.
"The reason why the clans of the Heavenly Federation can be brothers is because they have faith that they will not do anything cruel to each other. If the clans of the League of Heaven do what they are not supposed to do, the League of Heaven will first stop them."
“…….”
"Because brothers don't cheer for the wrong, they prevent the wrong."
Everyone nodded as if they were right.
But it didn't seem like a good answer to this wall.
"Of course I do. However, none of these people here think that Chun Woo-mang has a problem from the beginning. The problem is next."
When Hyun Jong looks at it as if it means something, Lee Byeok snorts and says.
"When a child holds a knife in his or her hand, he or she wants to swing it around. Do you really think that the people who have the powerful back of Chun Woo-men will stay as good as they are now?”
“…….”
"I'm sure you'll be careful at first. But eventually you'll want to wield that power. Are you sure you won't have any trouble with the thunderstorms then?"Those gathered in the seats looked at this wall with strange eyes.
This is a celebration of the breakthrough anyway. Even if you have complaints or problems, it is not polite to speak out here.
One thing was that none of the people dissuading this wall came out. Because everyone wanted to hear the answer to this.
While Hyun Jong was about to say something, facing the cold gaze of Lee Byeok, Dang Gunnak, who was quietly guarding his side, slowly opened his mouth.
"Elder Lee doesn't have to worry too much."
"…what do you mean?"
Dang Gunnak's mouth was strangely twisted.
"Cheongseong must be worried about Sichundang. Don't you think so?"
“…….”
This wall closed its mouth tightly.
It is not easy to answer such a straightforward question. Cheongseong does not have much advantage over Sichundang in the first place. But the Four Heavens carried the power of heaven and earth on their backs.….
Dang Gunnak's sharp eyes pierced him.
"Do you really need to borrow the hands of the Heavenly Father to deal with Cheongseong? I think I'm overestimating yourself."
"What, what……."
This wall's face turned red.
Of course, he is the elder of Cheongseong and Dang Gunnak is the valentine of the Tang family. However, however, this was a cross-the-line statement.
"That's too much!"
"Too much to say?”
Dang Gunnak showed his teeth and grinned coldly.
"It is not too much for an elder, not the eldest of Cheongseong, to question the lord of the heavenly race, and is it too much for me to say to the elder of Cheongseong?”
Dan Gunnak's momentarily stiffened body exuded a blade of energy.
"Answer me."
"He, it's....”
This wall closes its mouth.
It is not important to argue right or wrong over Dang Gunnak's logic. The important thing was that the poison king Dang Gunnak is now openly showing hostility to him.
Even if it was before the formation of Chun Woo-men, Lee Byeok is not a man who dare to be a match for Dang Gunnak. But how can he now open his eyes in front of Dang Gunnak?
"You believe in power and you wield power?"
There was a lot of laughter around Dang Gunnak's mouth.
"That's what we're supposed to say about you, not us. How dare you say such a thing here if you didn't carry the authority of the old file room on your back?"
"Lord, that's too much."
As Bop Kay intervened, Dang Gunnak glared at everyone and said:
"Listen up. Hyun Jong Jin is a long-time writer of Hwasan and a hero of Chun Woo-men. It is an act of neglecting the Heavenly Fellow, and furthermore, disregarding all the Sichundang, the Southern Forest Palace and the North Sea Ice Palace."
He didn't even speak up.
But the low, heavy voice came more threatening than any other shout.
"If this happens one more time in front of me, the Four Heavenly Party will never stand by."
"That's right."
Maeng So, who was watching the situation, glared at the masterpieces with his arms folded.
The pressure from its mass-sized body weighed heavily on everyone in the room.
"I don't know the same thing about the laws of the midfield. All I know is that Maeng-ju is not the kind of person you dare treat recklessly. Don't forget that the Lord of the Blind is guarding you, too. I would have already taken care of it if it had not been for Maeng-ju here."If Dang Gunnak's words were advice, they were more of a threat.
But no one could easily resist the remark.
'That idiot gave you a cause.’
You're such a fool!’
It was this wall that broke the example first.
Therefore, there is no way to blame them for their courtesy. The face of this wall turns black as if he realized it.
"North Sea Ice Palace is also not a place to walk on the pavement. But in the North Sea, you don't talk about rude people."
Solso Baek said calmly.
"If you want to know what's really too much, we can let you know."
In fact, Solso Back is not strong when it comes to dancing.
Therefore, it was not possible to show such pressure as Dang Gunnak or Maeng So.
But where in the world would you dare ignore the North Sea Ice Palace behind his back?
The atmosphere quickly became desolate as the three Moon factions started protecting Hyun Jong.
"Amitabha Buddha."
Bop Kye shouted "no" low.
"I apologize to Maeng-ju instead. Please forgive our rudeness."
"What do you mean rude? How rude would that be?"
As Hyun Jong stretched his arms slightly to the left and right, the energy of Dang Gunnak and Maeng So, who were oppressing the middle class, disappeared in an instant.
Instead, Hyun Jong's gentle and refreshing energy surrounded the gentle ones.
"It's a question of course. The frequency is also well aware of the anxiety you may feel from the prevalence of the Heavenly Union."
Hyun Jong smiled brightly.
"But what you think is not going to happen. Please believe in frequency."
Bop Kye nodded quietly.
"I trust you. Once again, I ask you to lead the Heavenly Union well."
"I will."
Looking at the two people lowering their heads, Dang Gunnak rolled up the corners of his mouth.
'We've got a steamer.’
This position was meaningful enough just because it gave the perception that Chun Woo-meng never succumbed to the influence of the old faction and the Great Sega.
Of course, their expressions are not very good, but...….
I just need to wrap it up well.’
But at this time, Dang Gunnak didn't know a thing.
The fact that something he never thought of, or anyone else in the world, was now approaching Hwasan.
