Taejonbirok Volume 10 Episode 11
Chapter 60 Lazy Man, Encounter (1)
What should I say?
At first, yes. I felt that way too.
There was something a bit strange about that competition. Should I say that the audience response was less than usual? A competition like that should actually be a bit noisy, but everyone seemed calm.
huh?
Isn't it because of Wei Yanho?
I thought so too.
Actually, now that you've heard it, you know how absurd a person Wi Yeon-ho is. Just looking at him leaves people speechless, that's Wi Yeon-ho.
That's what I thought.
But looking back, it wasn't just that. People were also feeling that ominous atmosphere.
Where did you get that feeling?
Well, that's hard to say for sure.
There's something like that, you know? What should I call it… …Before an earthquake, you see animals trembling in fear or running away?
That's what it felt like.
I also felt a strange sense of uneasiness at that time.
I didn't know it then, but thinking back now, it was only natural. The world changed from that point on.
Yeah, that's right.
That was the beginning.
The place where the chaos that turned the world upside down as you know began was Hwasan. And the place where the myth of Wei Yanhu began was also Hwasan.
Where did it start? … … .
huh?
no.
No, I said no. That's not it.
This doesn't seem to be well-received, but the place that was first destroyed by Wi Yeon-ho was not there, but inside. To be exact, it's not even inside. Until then, Cheon Eui-ryeon and Jeong Mu-maeng were on and off.
Huh? Why is Cheon Eui-ryeon here?
Hehehehe.
Just a month later, there were people who were trying to do things that would have been unimaginable.
Well, what should I call this?
I don't know whether to call it misfortune or karma.

“Wasn’t Wei Yanhu unexpected?”
Dangmyeong shouted with a stern face.
Dangjong lowered his head as if he could not bear Dangmyeong's anger.
"sorry."
“This isn’t something that can be resolved by saying sorry!”
"……sorry."
“Eet!”
Tangming slammed the table.
thud!
The table split in half with a dull thud and rolled around unsightly.
“Have you seen that weapon?”
"yes."
“Can you handle it?”
The king could not bring himself to open his mouth.
Can you handle that monster?
The king ended up laughing bitterly.
You can handle it. After dissolving the poison appropriately, surround the area with the poisonous martial arts that Dangga is proud of, and even the world's best masters will have their movements restricted. After that, you can slowly drain their strength through secret techniques and kill them.
But this was a fluke.
To execute this method, you need at least twenty masters. It is not a method that can be used in a one-on-one match.
“It’s difficult.”
Tangming's face became even more stern.
“What the heck is this!”
Although the name was given to Hwasan, it was Cheon Eui-ryeon who hosted this competition. It was no different from the first starting point of the competition to take away the title of the best in the world from Jeong Mu-maeng.
That kind of competition ended up being a feast for the political alliance.
“It’s not just Wei Yan Lake that’s the problem. Weichan Lake! Weichan Lake is also better than expected!”
The minister bit his lips tightly.
Yesterday, Wisanho showed off his amazing ability to subdue a Cheon Eui-ryeon member in just five seconds.
It's because the way Wi Yeon-ho showed himself in the previous match was so surprising. If Wi San-ho had appeared before Wi Yeon-ho, the entire volcano would have been filled with cheers for him.
“Guangdongwei! You guys!”
Dangmyeong gritted his teeth.
“It’s not just a political alliance. If things continue this way, the reputation of being the best family in the world will be taken away by the Guangdong Wei family. Seeing that guy acting like he’s single makes me sick.”
“…….”
“The title of ‘The Best Family in the World’ is only suitable for our family. But are we supposed to just watch that name being given to another family?”
The doctor narrowed his eyes.

'You're excited.'
Perhaps because things weren't going as planned, his uncle was overly excited. An excited person can't think normally. It wasn't a good sign.
“Once we have already decided on a method, there is nothing more we can do.”
“There is no way?”
“Yes, unfortunately.”
“Tsk tsk, you stupid kid.”
"yes?"
Dangmyeong smiled quietly. It was a cold smile that made Dangjong flinch for a moment.
“Jong-i-ya.”
“Yes, uncle.”
“That’s what martial arts is like.”
"yes?"
The party leader's voice became gloomy.
“Ganghoji is a place where you have to constantly work hard behind the scenes to maintain a glamorous appearance on the outside.”
“I know.”
“No, you don’t know.”
Dangmyeong spoke in a firm voice.
“The effort you know is only a part of it. It takes more effort than you think.”
“……Uncle?”
“Wei Yanho, Wei Yanho… If things continue as they are, he will definitely become a force to be reckoned with in the world. If Wei Shanhu uses Wei Yanho’s influence on his back, who can stop him from stepping forward to rule the world? If twenty more years pass like this, the names of the best family in the world and the best person in the world will all belong to the Guangdong Wei family.”
The king had doubts.
What on earth are you trying to say?
“But what if, unfortunately, one of the two loses their life in an unfortunate accident?”
“Uncle?”
“I heard that Wi Yeon-ho came down the mountain. It looks like he’s going to get something from the market.”
no way?
The king's eyes wavered.
“That, that’s too dangerous.”
“Is it dangerous? Why?”
“If it is revealed that we did that, the whole world will condemn us. The Guangdong Wei Family and the Zhengwu League will not stay still either.”
“You stupid guy.”
He looked at Dangjong-ui as if he was displeased with Dangmyeong.
“We are the party. Do you know what that means?”
“…….”
“Poison is not something that is sprayed in front. It is something that is sprayed behind. Secretly, so that no one knows. You should know that there are several times more people who died behind the scenes than those who died in front of the Tang family. And today, one more will be added.”
The king clenched his fists.
He couldn't face Wei Yanhu head-on, but that didn't mean he liked the idea of using this method.
“You don’t look very happy.”
“Uncle, this kind of thing…….”
“Tsk tsk tsk, you stupid kid.”
Dangmyeong spoke in a solemn voice.
“Do you not know that the glory of your family and the existence of your family are more important than your own satisfaction and your own glory?”
“……I know.”
“Sometimes a fair defeat is necessary. But not now. If a little more time passes and Wei Yanhu begins to show his might and builds up his power, he will gain absolute power. It will be impossible then. If it is to be done, it must be done now.”
The king realized.
The party name is not something that is easy to get. He was also desperate.
'Is Wi Yeon-ho really that bad?'
He also acknowledged that Wi Yeon-ho was an absolute master who transcended common sense. However, he did not think that his uncle was someone who needed to be guarded so closely.
“It seems like you don’t understand.”
“Yes. Wei Yanhu is certainly strong. However, the Guangdong Wei family is a small family with only direct blood relatives, not even a collateral line. Even if he, who has no background or power, is strong on his own, how much influence can he have?”
“I don’t know what you’re talking about.”
Dangmyeong shook his head firmly.
“It’s not that strong warriors come from strong families. It’s that families that produce strong warriors become strong. Do you know which family was the strongest in the history of martial arts?”
“……Nangung or us, I guess.”
"no."
There was not an inch of room for error in Tangming's voice.
“The most powerful family in history is undoubtedly the Mangeom (萬劍). They were strong enough to rule the world alone. When they were at their strongest, not even shamans or Shaolin dared to raise their heads before their name. Only the Demonic Cult, which is said to be the strongest force in history, could compare to them.”
The king tilted his head as if he did not understand.
“Are you saying that I have to become a member of the Demonic Cult? Even so, a single family…….”
“The members of the Mangeom Baekga were never many. However, during their heyday, they had him. Sword Emperor.”
There was a sense of awe in Tangming's voice as he spoke the name Geomhwang.
“You don’t know how much power a single absolute master can unleash. Numbers are meaningless in the face of a true master.”
“Is that what Wei Yanhu is like?”
“No. I dare not compare Wei Yanhu to the Sword Emperor. However, consider his age. It is said that the Sword Emperor was a genius and a child prodigy known to the world since childhood, but he would not have been as strong as Wei Yanhu is now. Then what will happen in twenty years?”
“…….”
“It is said that those who were famous as prodigies often lose their luster as they grow older, but even if Wi Yeon-ho maintains half of his current growth rate, he will become the best in the world before he turns forty. In that case, we should hold our breath again until he dies. I can’t stand to see that happen!”
The king bowed his head.
Dangmyeong clicked her tongue softly at his response, which seemed to indicate that she understood with her head but could not accept it with her heart.
“You don’t have to come forward. This uncle will take care of everything. So don’t make a fuss and just stay quiet.”
"……yes."
Dang Myeong let out a low sigh as he watched Dang Jong-ui carefully retreat.
'I don't know.'
What most of the martial arts world doesn't know now is how terrible the Sword Emperor was during his time.
Because of the arrogant personality of the Sword Emperor, the world's sects had to hold their breath, fearing when the Sword Emperor would do something again. Although the Tang family was able to avoid the arrows somewhat, the shamans and Hwasan, who could be called the Sword Emperors, did not dare to even breathe in front of him.
'We cannot allow history to repeat itself.'
This was not something he did simply for his own glory. It was for the glory of the Tang family, the glory of Cheon Eui-ryeon, and even more so, for all of the martial arts world.
With that in mind, Dangmyeong quietly closed his eyes.
'And it is also his command.'
Awe bloomed in Tangming's eyes as he thought of him. But soon, fear began to quickly replace the awe.
If he fails to keep his command to win this competition, it would be better for Tangming to die. He had to prevent that from happening, no matter what.
“You will be so happy that you won’t even know you are dying. You will probably not feel any pain. Think of it as my final consideration.”
The voice of the living Dangmyeong resonated throughout the room.
