Becoming the Swordmaster Rank Young Lord of the Sichuan Tang Family Chapter 71

< Episode 70 >

Yeon Myeong passed through the passage and reached a space with ten small rooms arranged in a circle.

In front of each room, a cloth with the numbers one (_) to ten (什) written on it was draped like a foot.

‘In fact, the poison is lighter here.’

In some ways, it was a strange thing. Isn’t this a place where the most extreme readers, known as party gossip readers, gather? But instead of becoming thicker than outside the passage, the miasma becomes lighter?

‘Is it because of the poisonous liquor?’

Yeon Myeong continued to suck in the poison and guess. The people who came in and out of the poison addiction school would usually spend the longest time here in the party gossip poison storage area. With poisoned blood in your mouth. Maybe that’s why the poison has faded.

‘…no.’

He quickly denied the speculation. The words of a warrior from the reign of King Amwang come to mind.

-It is called poisonous liquor. Most poisons cannot attack you just by holding this in your mouth.

He said that poisoned wine is not something that absorbs poison, but rather ‘prevents it from being invaded’. If that’s the case, then there’s no reason for the poison here to fade.

Unless there is someone else who is intentionally drinking poison like it is obvious.

Feeling so puzzled, Yeon Myeong suddenly remembered a certain assumption.

Since he had already experienced the poison outside the passage, he thought that the poison here where the Party Gossip Dog was located had subsided. But what if the poison here is not lightened, but the poison outside the passage is too thick…?

Suddenly, the formation that I saw a little while ago flashes through Yeon Myeong’s mind.

Hidden inside was a technique of radiation that even mobilized the strange world – it seemed as if something had been sealed for a long time or entry was prohibited. Could it have something to do with it?

‘it’s okay. for now.’

Let’s check our gossip reader first-

Naturally, I put aside my thoughts and went in, starting from where the word 1 was written.

****

The Presbyterian Church has now become obsolete.

Among them, several people were sitting together in the residence of Elder Lee Tang Myeong-sin. They were all close blood relatives of Tang Mingxin, and were now excluded from important positions in the family.

Tang Ji-hyeok, Tang Myeong-sin’s nephew and former poison king, opened his mouth with a somber expression.

“Uncle, what should I do with this? I tried to take my time and seize the opportunity, but that bitch has risen to the position of head of the family…!”

“You’re a girl. Be careful what you say. She’s definitely the head of the main family.”

Tang Myeong-shin, who scolded Tang Ji-hyuk in a stern tone, raised his spirits, explored the surroundings once, and continued speaking.

“Jihyuk, your carelessness has always been a problem. If you think about it, isn’t it your fault that he ended up participating in the Sogaju competition?”

“…Why are you doing that baby now?”

“If you hadn’t hastily sent him into the competition, this wouldn’t have happened.”

After shooting like that, Tang Mingxin caught a glimpse of the boy who was hanging his head down like a criminal. This is Dang Mun-chan, the son of Dang Ji-hyuk. A boy who once had the expectations of the gods of his party, but lost all his potential when one of his arms was completely damaged due to some kind of incident.

Seeing him, Tang Mingxin seemed to be getting feverish again and spoke in a reproachful tone.

“No. It’s the same with Moon Chan. He can’t even recognize the person who will become the head of the small family and loses his reputation…? Only after his eyes aren’t hollow…. You rich people are ruining what I’ve built up all my life like this. Blood relatives. It was foolish of me to look after him…!”

“……”

Tang Wenchan said nothing. It wasn’t simply that he was disparaging his uncle’s words. He was now consumed with resentment and jealousy toward Yan Yanming.

‘If it weren’t for him…’

I thought about that dozens or hundreds of times a day. He thought that if he had not been involved with Yeon Yeomyeong, if he had been eight years old, he would not have been the one sitting in Sogaju’s position – of course, he also knew that Yeon Yeomyeong’s talent and accumulated inaction were enormous.

However, it was unbearably painful to have to live a life like an unbloomed flower without even making a proper effort.

‘I need to fix my arm. Arms… That way, there is even the slightest possibility of getting revenge on that guy.’

Now Dangmunchan also knew. My left arm was completely damaged after being hit by Yeon-myeong. It looked like it was completely healed on the outside, but my energy and blood vessels were completely distorted, so I couldn’t do any energy on that side at all. This means that you cannot become a master with ordinary internal Qigong.

Dang Ji-hyeok said.

“Uncle. Is the matriarch’s inaction really that great? Even so, I understand that he has become a master in no time after living a life of seclusion for over ten years…”

“Whether you are convinced or not is not important. Dokbong’s inaction that day was not a lie. That overwhelming presence… I don’t know what enlightenment there was, but it was enough to believe that it was Hwagyeong.”

“I went that far….”

“Everyone who was at the Gaju inauguration ceremony must have felt that way. He was a power that could not be opposed. You must have seen the expressions on the faces of the President and Elder Oh. It was a situation where it was too much to handle just a sleeping dragon called Sogaju, and that sleeping dragon even had wings called a poisonous peak. “It is a situation that is difficult to reverse, both in terms of justification and force.”

“This has become difficult.”

“Yes. The Gaju and Sogaju, their power over the two generations will be very strong for at least several decades. There will be no room for us to squeeze in during this time. It is as if we have already lost the battle. If we plot a rebellion for no reason, we will be exterminated. Rather, they might be waiting for that.”

“……”

It was a creepy story. Everyone present here had seen Yeon-myeong ascend to the throne of Sogaju on his own. It is said that he witnessed the murder of Dang Seok-jung, the Great Elder, and Dang Seok-hyeong, the Third Elder. Even that process.

After securing a justification, they immediately showed their cruel hand – as Tang Mingxin said, the thought that plotting a pointless treason was a path to self-destruction passed through their minds.

“…Then what do you plan to do, uncle? The pressure from the General Administration has dried up our finances. It may be the same for other elders, but we are currently having a hard time just maintaining our integrity.”

Dang Ji-hyeok asked. All that was left to them was the Geonjeongdae, a military unit under the direct command of Elder Lee Tang Myeong-sin. However, as the General Government Office decided not to allocate any more budget for the Geonjeong Corps, it reached a point where it had to be financed entirely with private funds.

If the Jianjeongdae was naturally disbanded like this, the Tang Mingxin family would also naturally fall. Something had to be done before that.

“I know. So I also thought about it.”

Tang Mingxin lowered his voice and said.

“…I guess I have to leave the family.”

****

Yeon Myeong confirmed all party gossip.

As expected, there were a total of four things left. Even in empty places, books about the origin, origin, and effects of the poison remained. However, what was disappointing was that most of them did not have a specific manufacturing method.

The only thing that could be prepared was intangible poison, the official name of which was Intangible Myeongsan (無形命散), and the poison that Daejang Elder Dang Seok-jung used to secretly attack Yeon Myeong was this unfinished intangible myeongsan.

‘I can’t tell even if I look at it.’

Yeon Myeong had no particular interest in the manufacture of poison. This is because one must not only be knowledgeable in pharmacy and self-study, but also have a certain sense of mixing medicines and poisons. Completely separate from the talent for martial arts.

So, Yeon Myeong copied the recipe appropriately and took it with her. The plan was to hand it over to the previous party. From the looks of it, it seemed like it took quite a long time to make an intangible famous mountain. Since it was a transfer that had not yet reached terms and conditions, if we start dispensing intangible famous products from now on, wouldn’t we be able to create them at a relatively young age? Of course, since this recipe is a way to make one of the gossip poisons that are no different from heirlooms, I will have to get permission from my mother, the head of the family, before handing it over.

There were no recipes for the remaining nine poisons, and only information was written about how the poisons were obtained and what effects they had. However, the explanation was somewhat absurd.

For example, it was like this:

-Where the Ten Thousand Years of Fire live, in all likelihood, the Fire Dragon also lives there. As with all dragons, Hwaryong sleeps a lot and usually sleeps quietly, but once it wakes up, it cannot overcome its violent temper and destroys the surrounding area. It deserves to be defined as a disaster that clearly harms royalties. They harm people by spitting out breath hotter than lava, and this breath is trapped and liquefied using magic, called Hwaryonghodok. The Fire Dragon Tiger Poison is the most powerful among the ten poisons….

It was a book left about Hwaryonghodok, which I had already experienced.

Except for Hwaryonghodok, other poisons also had this explanation. I was able to guess why it was just handed down without a recipe. Because it seemed like it was just pulled from some imagination or a legendary spirit or something. It means that it is a natural poison.

It was the only intangible famous product that could be made by combining and blending various relatively easily available poisons over a long period of time.

However, it was stated that the intangible famous acid was the least toxic among the party gossip poisons. The effort put in is in vain.

In any case, as Yeon Myeong confirmed, the four remaining party gossip books were as follows.

Fire dragon poison

Intangible famous mountain (無形命散)

Dragon killing poison

Destruction (destruction)

There was not a large amount of dragonsal poison and algae flower left. In particular, the algae flower was in a small jade bottle, and I could see that there were only a few drops left.

-The dragon race is something between a spirit being and an imamangryang, and ordinary martial arts does not apply to them. You have to be strong enough to inflict a small amount of damage, and even that is quickly recovered. In order to easily kill such a dragon, the most efficient way is to inject the poison of the Dragon Killer through their stomachs…

Yongsalgal seemed to mean an extremely poisonous centipede-shaped imaemangryang. Because Imaemangryang was ultimately a ghost-like being, not a living being, it was said that its miasma was completely different from that of living things. How severe was the poison, enough to kill a dragon?

It is said that its terrible poison was so impressive that even its name became Yongsalgal.

Meanwhile.

-Those who have achieved harmony have reigned as absolute rulers of royalties since ancient times. Among them, there are those who have character worthy of respect, but there are also many who commit all kinds of harm with incredible force. It is such a pity to risk injury or even death to deal with such people. Use poison mercilessly against those guys. However, it is a waste to use poisons that are no different from the original family’s vision, so I would like to leave a policy for future generations….

As the name suggests, algae was a poison used to kill Jo Hwa-gyeong’s servant. It appears to have been left behind by someone from our ancestors, and it was passed along as a warning to use it sparingly when an evil person who appears in the world is unreasonably strong or threatens the family.

Algae flower was the essence of poison that someone who had reached the point of poisoning extracted it directly from their own body.
