Surviving as a Genius on Borrowed Time Chapter 130

Cheongyeon (3)

The Mancheonhwawoo of the poisonous Tangun Huang attacked Galsa Ryang’s entire body.

It didn’t stop there. The steel flower rain also bit the remaining thirteen thousand unmanned soldiers.

Mancheonhwawoo’s strengths were revealed at that time.

It manifested as a disaster for those whose martial arts skills did not reach a certain level. It swept them all away.

By that time, Sojinrang had lost his will to fight at the hands of Jeongyeonshin.

As the successor to the Ten Commandments, my heart was filled with emotions I had never experienced before.

Extreme fear. I had to run away as soon as I was sent.

I guessed there was an ulterior motive, but Sapha’s later index put his own safety first.

And now it is.

A mountain where a gentle breeze caresses the fallen leaves.

The sound of the leaves rustling was rather eerie.

The footsteps that had been trudging stopped in front of Sojinrang.

The red robe fluttered with dark texture. It was the Seven Sado of the Blood Flame Cult.

There was a hint of sadness in his white face, and his expression was indifferent, as if he had never smiled before.

He opened his lips while staring intently at Sojinrang.

“Your twenty years are probably about the same as that child’s one year. You don’t know anything and you talk so well? Be grateful. Your lifeline has been extended by half a century. Our Taesa’s sense of humor has expanded.”

The sight of her slender fingers opening and closing is strangely appealing.

Colorless, irregularly spreading aerodynamic waves spread from each joint of the hand.

His words and actions seemed as if he could kill her at any time, but it didn’t seem unnatural at all.

Sojinrang also knows. The seventh apostle of the Blood Flame Sect was a famous person.

He was said to be noble from birth.

A master who was born with innate blood energy and rose to the rank of apostle by the age of the late index.

He is a nobleman chosen by heaven among the Blood Flame Cult.

There was even a rumor going around that her mother died laughing immediately after giving birth.

Chilsado tilted his head slightly.

“Well, this is enough. How can I make you appreciate my devotion? Our Taesa, you know. Hmm, no. The more I treat you, the more you’ll look down on me. With those brilliant, innocent eyes… … Oh? That’s thrilling too… …?”

The more I talk, the more nonsensical it becomes. That’s how it looks to Sojinrang.

Was the Ten-Way Sword of the Extreme Moon Sword not even in his sight? He wasn’t in his right mind.

“What are you talking about for now… …!”

He felt fear intuitively.

Blood Flame Sect Seven Apostles. He is not someone who can be concerned about the status of a thirteen thousand-year-old rumor master.

I heard that it seems to be related to the island girl Jeongyeon Shin, and the boy was also amazed.

Is it true that the youngest black person who can be considered the future of the Ip Hwang Seong is in a relationship with an apostle of the Blood Flame Cult?

That was when.

Suddenly, white hair fluttered behind Chilsa-do. It was next to her shoulder.

The white-haired, peerless handsome man slowly raised his head, but there was not even the slightest sound.

“Even though he is a man with a head full of demons (impure thoughts), he has considerable energy. My Seven Sages, I am quite pleased with the tribute. I was late because I came from far away, but it was worth the long journey.”

The man’s voice rang sweetly.

If he was with the Seven Sado, he would be a master of social interaction, but I didn’t feel awkward using the word “maguni” like a monk.

So Jinrang’s knowledge of the world of martial arts was too broad for that.

Know the origins of the Blood Flame Cult.

It is said that the great master of Hyeolgong copied some of the most widely spread Buddhism in India.

To spread the Blood Flame Church widely.

“Blood Flame Cult Leader… … ?”

Sojinrang’s voice trembled faintly. Her lips twitched.

Anyone would do the same if they encountered the Seven Sages and the Blood Flame Cult Leader in an unknown mountain.

They were a disaster that appeared through the darkness.

“Tribute? How disappointing.”

Chilsado spoke in a cold tone. He didn’t even look at me. It didn’t seem like he was dealing with the leader.

The Blood Flame Cult Leader smiled faintly. It seemed as if he was dealing with a daughter who was throwing tantrums.

“You can only say this because you have not experienced the sword of the Emperor of Heaven. Originally, the sect leader should have the upper hand in terms of the yin energy that that being possessed. Where in the world are there people more yin than you and me?”

“But why did you do that?”

“The level of martial arts surpasses the principle of affinity. It’s not even a magical power that blocks the function of regeneration, but many people have died from pure swordsmanship.”

He discusses the highest realm of martial arts in a plain and polite tone.

Sojinrang trembled for a moment.

Even in the midst of all this, I had a shiver.

The leader and the saint.

Among the thirteen heavens, the most extensive is the Blood Flame Cult and the Taishan Mountain located in the northern part of the Hogwang Cult.

The fight between the Blood Flame Cult Leader and the Emperor of the Heavenly Kingdom shook the entire martial arts world.

Their winning decision did not only attract the attention of the martial arts world.

Even the logistics of the trade route from Hogwangseong to Namjikrye were shaken. They were absolute beings.

‘What the heck, what the heck… … .’

It is a position where even So Jin-rang, the son of a master of ten, has difficulty maintaining composure.

The Blood Flame Cult Leader was said to be a monstrous being with human form.

Just the slightest interest directed towards Sojinrang made my mind dizzy.

“I have to use the suction spell of the Mara Hong Blood Demon that was given to the apostles. I can’t recover without absorption. Since the elixir that this Maguni ate is quite powerful, I can now act as the head of the sect. It’s good. That bastard’s energy was a bit irritating.”

“Mayeonjeok? That old man?”

“Yes. The magician’s skills have returned surprisingly well. But that wasn’t all. I felt something a little uncomfortable. Since my body wasn’t in good shape, I avoided him for a while. From what I saw, it seemed like our Taesa had done something. After that precious boy took the bloody attack that he had changed, it would be right to carefully discuss how to deal with him.”

“… … .”

“If we bring the Grand Master in a half-hearted manner, the original incident will just repeat itself. The Lord of the Heavenly Kingdom will personally visit once again. It seems that he is not sparing much. The Lord of the Heavenly Kingdom rarely draws the Sword of Destruction. Originally, the last time was when he destroyed the royal family of Daeri.”

“Is the Iphwangseongju saving up?”

The eyes of the Seven Apostles rose.

The conversations of madmen are so elusive.

The Blood Flame Cult Leader did not bother to answer.

He smiled a sly smile, sweeping back his silky white hair.

“Now that we’ve brought up the subject of the Grand Master, I’m saying this.”

“… … ?”

“Why did you miss the report?”

Instead, he asks languidly. For a moment, an eerie silence passes by.

The night breeze was cool. It was a word that called for the silence of Chilsado.

“They say that the island was destroyed by the Mingongdo clan. I heard reports that the boy’s martial arts skills were black. After hearing about the Gijujibu clan, I think that it could be true. However, did the sect leader’s subordinates really die there… …at the Taesa?”

“… … .”

“Look at the throne.”

“Your eyes are ugly. They’re red for no reason.”

The Blood Flame Cult Leader’s lips formed a faint curve at the words he blurted out.

“Do you covet the position of the cult leader? That would be quite a fascinating sight in its own way. Since you were born with noble bloodlines, if you sit on the throne, you will become the true blood cult leader. With the blessings you received from the Grand Master, aren’t your accomplishments progressing by leaps and bounds? If you take the cult leader’s divine water, you will advance once more.”

“Not that interested?”

“You should be concerned. There may be an unfortunate incident that happens to me. The power of the entire world is growing. I heard that the Sword Master killed the Jangmunin of Cheongseong.”

“If you are the eldest disciple of the Cheongseongpa, aren’t you the Red Cloud Sword Master? The only one who is the leader of the Paegeom clan?”

“He was originally a peerless master, but he is growing up. Next is the head of the Jongnam faction. The leader of the Paegeom clan… … A half-blooded nobleman with lowly qualities, he is using time as a touchstone. After losing to Jongnam, he went into hiding and came back with a great awakening.”

The life disappeared from Sojinrang’s eyes along with the words.

I felt as if I was standing there blankly, dying in the wind that passed by.

Before he knew it, the Blood Flame Cult Leader was holding his head in his hands.

“First, I must go to the Tang family. I, the leader, will personally protect the Flashing Arts Law.”

The leader spoke slowly.

Chilsado didn’t say anything.

He just looked down with his red eyes as if he was deep in thought, pushing his long, flowing black hair behind his ears.

* * *

The incident that occurred on Giju Street spread like wildfire.

It was a fight between two great factions that is rarely seen.

The alliance between Sipjeonmun, Sunmaryeon, Iphwangseong, and Tangmun instantly attracted the attention of the vast Sacheon martial arts world.

“Can there be such a young master?”

“There must have been hundreds of people who witnessed it directly. The martial artists have different opinions on whether it was two or three attacks, but from our perspective, it only took a second. Seomye killed Sunma Ryun’s Dokwon Ma in one strike, that’s what I’m saying. I heard that Sunma Shinsu and Geom Gal Ma were also killed by that young master.”

“I heard that you used the divine power of Mancheonhwawoo.”

“The Sacheondangmun said they would take you in as their son-in-law and make you their teacher. You are worthy of that. Isn’t this a new talent that we have never seen before? Who would have thought that there would be such a promising master beyond the basin?”

“The black color of the Emperor’s face is just a boy. I find it hard to believe.”

As time passed, along with the rise of the powerful Tang Yunhuang, the name of the island girl Jeong Yeonsin grew.

As each day passed, Giju’s commotion only grew more intense.

Recruits sent from all the prestigious families of Sacheon knocked on the main gate of the Iphwangseong Giju branch.

There was a rumor going around that Jang Il-do, the Blue House branch manager who was showing off his power, was not even able to go out for a walk because he was busy checking documents.

At that time, Jeong Yeon-shin was already heading towards Sacheondangmun.

After trying to regain my composure, I sent Sojinrang off and briefly said goodbye to Danggaju.

-I want to serve you with the utmost care at my home.

Before turning his back, the poisonous Tang Yunhuang emphasized again and again.

It would only be a short while before he could take control of the family once again, so the Master earnestly requested that he visit him in the near future.

I also heard that they are preparing to transform the Ip Hwang Geum into a divine sword.

There were two reasons.

To fight against the thirteen thousand sect leaders who lost their main force, and to repay the Tang sect’s teacher.

The Tang sect is a school of medicine, poisoning, and secret techniques.

It meant that he was also skilled in blacksmithing. He was said to have an abundance of extraordinary weapons.

‘You told me to expect elixir too.’

So, we gathered our party and headed to the Tang Dynasty.

The faces of seniors Ma Gwang-ik, who waved their hands with bright faces, are kind.

Baek Mi-ryeo’s hand, stroking my head, was also unusually warm.

As a senior who has mastered the art of magic, we decided to discuss the Jangbodo of the famous sect later.

The open-minded leaders, including Hougae, returned, promising to return in the future.

It wasn’t a particularly clean farewell, but Jeongyeonshin didn’t take it to heart.

It was because there were many things that needed to be taken care of and handled.

The majority of the Hwanikdae were left in the Iphwangseong base.

As the leader of the temporary Hwanikdae, he wrote a letter to his superior regarding the progress of his mission and finished checking on the internal affairs of his subordinates.

He rode on horseback with the Tang siblings, accompanied by Heonwonchang, Taeyeonryong, and Namgung Hwasin.

“We will arrive soon.”

Dang Yeo-hwa, the poisonous dragon who was riding a fine horse alongside Jeong Yeon-shin, spoke.

Despite his small stature, he was skilled at horseback riding. He was also skilled at riding a dokbong.

Suddenly, the wrinkled face of the Taishang family leader who was standing blankly next to the Tang family leader came to mind.

It was an expression on his face that made it difficult to tell what he was thinking.

‘He was a strange old man.’

It was in the midst of such a loud sound of horse hooves.

Amidst the dull vibrations rising from the ground and reverberating up to my waist, the head of the horse Dangryeryeo rode approached.

“Thank you.”

The girl said.

The title for Jeongyeonshin had changed.

It was after I gave Mancheonhwawoo to Danggaju.

The boy just turned his gaze slightly.

Dangryeo-ryeo couldn’t move her lips with an embarrassed expression.

The slight blush on her cheeks seemed to be a sign of her shame.

The tiny head bobs slightly on the fine horse.

Jeongyeonshin guessed the reason. It must be because of what Taesanggaju had said earlier.

“Don’t worry. I have no thoughts about marriage.”

We are already at a crossroads in life.

If we were to organize the thirteen thousand and two, we would need a party, and the party was a breakwater that Ma Gwang-ik had visited for investigation due to suspicions of manufacturing wall-cracking bombs.

It was not possible to enter into a strategic marriage with Dokbong in order to secure one Daebangpa as reinforcements.

Things get complicated.

It would be fortunate if it wasn’t a path leading into a swamp.

We had already talked about the wall bombs and heard about them from our first meeting.

Jeongyeonshin calmly turned her head forward.

He stared straight ahead. Finally, he reached the Tang Gate.

In the distance, the tiled roofs of a large group of pavilions were visible in a row.

“… … .”

While Dangryeolyeo was closing her mouth, Taeyeonryong intervened.

He was languidly staring at the poppy flowers with his eyes half-open.

“First, let the Tang family take care of the Thirteen Thousand, and then let the temporary leader eat only the core. Just by giving us the Mancheonhwawoo, he is a benefactor of a thousand years. If you are honest, I will open the blacksmith shop, so you can decide after seeing that. If you want, you can search every nook and cranny.”

“I think you’re right.”

It was Namgung Hwasin who was next to me.

He nods heavily with a picturesque face.

Taeyeonryong’s lips rose faintly.

Once again, the voice was clear through the rushing wind.

“I killed the Pure Horse God, the Sword God, and the Do-kwon God in succession. It was also half thanks to the temporary leader that I was able to waste my sword like that. Well… … It’s something worth discussing with someone like the head of the Eighteen Arhats of Shaolin Temple.”

“… … .”

“Sword refining, elixirs, a warm sleeping bag, and delicacies from all over the world… Let’s just take what we can and get out. Sega, whatever, whether it goes down or not.”

“Hyung Hwangbo’s opinion is not wrong. The Lord has done his duty.”

Namgung Hwasin answered again. His tone was indifferent.

This is a conversation that took place in front of the Tang siblings.

Taeyeonryong’s conduct was no different from the rumors, but the words and actions of Baekgirin Namgung Hwasin, who was by Jeongyeonshin’s side, were truly unexpected.

Heonwonchang, who was following behind while pulling the reins of his horse, muttered.

“I also need to stay sane.”

After half an hour.

The group arrived at the main gate of Sacheondangga and dismounted from their horses.

A high wall stretched endlessly to the left and right.

The summer sun brightly illuminated the walls like a symbol of power and wealth.

It was just as rumored.

It was said to be the most splendid and largest estate in Sacheon Province.

Heonwonchang looked at the Dang siblings with renewed interest.

“They were children of a very wealthy family.”

When Jeong Yeon-sin entered the Tang family’s inner court, he received unprecedented hospitality.

Just looking at Dokryong Dang Yeohwa’s surprised eyes was enough to guess the truth.

“I came to see the teacher.”

The owner of the house who opened his mouth with a smile was not properly in sight.

It was the fault of those lined up on his left and right.

The two masters stand in two lines facing each other as if performing a ritual and take the prize.

There is a large, long, empty space between them.

It was the path leading to the upper seats of the party’s senior members, including the head of the party.

“… … .”

It was an excessive hospitality for Jeong Yeon-shin.

He walked along the path made by the masters, sat down with the head of the Tang family to eat food in accordance with the hospitality of the Tang family, and dealt with the Tang family’s collateral relatives and various later scholars who approached him cautiously.

A long time has passed, but it doesn’t remain much in my mind.

The boy suddenly raised his head. The dusk was beginning to fall.

The end of the sun, which had quickly run through the summer day, was beautiful.

The sky was covered with a soft sunset glow like silk.

At this time of year, he would usually lie curled up in his bed.

“Now will do. Let me give you one thing first.”

The owner of the house urged him to stand up with his small hand.

Jeong Yeon-shin and her party stood up together with the powerful general Dang Yun-hwang.

The Tang siblings, with brighter expressions on their faces as if they had finally had a proper reunion with their father, joined them.

It seemed to go into the deepest part of the inner garden of Danggata.

Namgung Hwasin, standing to the left of Jeongyeonsin, gently gripped the handle of his Iphwanggeom.

We spent some time walking around in silence, drinking a cup of tea.

The sound of little birds chirping broke the comforting silence.

Jeongyeonshin arrived at a small garden with them.

A fake mountain (a stone mountain shaped like a mountain) made by piling up luxurious pebbles caught my eye.

It’s in the middle of a very small lake.

The gentle stream flows around the mountain in a circle, and a mysterious fog rises vaguely above it.

Sabak.

“We promised each other before. I will transform Eun-gong’s sword into a divine sword.”

Dangryeo-ryeo took a step forward and slightly extended her arm.

It was a gesture from Jeongyeonshin to the waterside.

“You can just soak it and take it out. Only one is possible.”

“… … ?”

After a moment of silence, Heonwonchang opened his mouth.

“Was Sacheondangmun a den of herbal medicine vendors? Are they selling medicine now?”

It seemed like he had unintentionally revealed his true feelings.

I startle myself and cover my lips with one hand.

Taeyeonryong gently brought his mouth to Jeongyeonshin’s ear.

“I don’t know what will happen to Hwanikdae in the future, but let’s think about it without that guy.”

The boy did not answer and took a slow step forward.

He lifted the hem of his pitch-black clothes slightly to the side and alternately stroked the cool sword waves of the Iphwang sword and the Bukmyeong sword.
