Surviving as a Genius on Borrowed Time Chapter 346

May 2nd Ju (2)

It was a time of chaos.

Accurate information was extremely rare. If there were a dozen or so rumors about an event, there were usually only two or three that were true.

Even the portraits of the contemporary Magwangikju, which were mainly spread in the central part of the country, were like that.

The appearances depicted on the canvas were literally all over the place, but even then, they were said to be less varied than their reputations.

Because if you get caught sharing personal information about a high-ranking official in the Imperial Palace, you will be punished by the government.

‘This feeling.’

Jeong Yeon-shin came back after seeing twelve Yongmo Pagi, each with a different style and description. He could not treat lightly the documents that Cheongmyeong, Baek Mi-ryeo, Ak Su-rim, and the Grand General had personally handed to him before his departure.

Their minds have broadened. They have learned quite a few anecdotes related to the people they have to face, and they have learned them in detail.

The other person’s behavior clearly matched some of the information.

“That’s strange. I heard you’re about three years younger than me… but you’ve grown up so much.”

Inyoung said, glancing at Jeongyeonshin while still holding the fishing rod loosely.

A rough voice with clear pronunciation. It felt like an invisible rake was scratching his throat, where a clear voice should have come out.

The appearance is also striking. It feels like a direct descendant of a famous school that has been deceiving the heavens for generations.

It starts with a silver mask that extends from the forehead to the tip of the nose, beautifully revealing only the lower face.

Even though there is no special engraving or pattern, a faint luster flows like waves. It matches well with the crooked smile that seems to be a habit.

On the other hand, the entire body was covered with a very gorgeous white robe, and the black threads carved along the end like decorations did not seem excessive.

It must have been because of the overwhelming aura radiating from the dark blue eyes beneath the mask. Even the scarf wrapped around his neck, made of pure white animal fur, felt like the mane of some kind of dragon.

“The swear words don’t sound like swear words.”

The monster slowly moved his lips.

Between the syllables, except when the monster spoke, the cool silence characteristic of a winter stream stood out particularly.

The behavior that made me wonder whether he was catching fish or not was secondary. A truly overwhelming presence filled the surroundings.

“Is it because of your uncommon appearance? The word plague is ridiculous. It must be because of your gentle nature.”

“… … .”

Jeong Yeon-shin thought silently. I should be wary of the author’s perspective.

The invincible Yalyujin.

The best talent in the world, widely known throughout the vast world.

This is a person who blocked Jeong Yeon-shin’s path with his amazing information power.

The clothes hid how the body was cleaned, and the luxury items that were neither masks nor anything else covered half of the face. This meant that it was difficult to figure out information about the martial arts other than the large movements and ki waves.

Are you a woman or a man?

In addition to the martial arts of drinking and law, to what extent have you practiced the martial arts of using the body?

It’s hard to pinpoint anything.

The blood-curdling wind surrounding the body seemed to be close to a Dharma treasure. Because it blocked the energy waves at their source, nothing could be detected.

‘You shouldn’t divide the sum too much.’

A feeling I had never felt before came over me. An intuition bordering on insight.

Jeongyeonshin engraved in her mind an image of a light dragon holding a fan in its mouth.

At any time, he could overlap the image of the meteor sword on his waist and swing the sword towards his opponent’s neck. Among his martial arts, there was no study that was faster than the Seonryong Ihwagyeol.

‘Instead, you should also consider using the Ultimate Lightning. My head might be blown off by a bird using the Sword.’

His mouth opened.

“Yalujin of Myeonggyo. Have you ever clashed with the true nature of the people?”

It was right after he asked in a tone of voice without any hesitation. There were waves of energy rising like wildfire in various places in the forest of tall trees, as if they were pressuring Jeongyeonshin.

There are easily dozens of them.

The snow covering the branches of the trees shattered whitely in all directions. The density of the aerodynamic waves was equally enormous.

The speed of the internal energy of the first one to create a wave of energy could not be explained by anyone other than the Samhwachuijeong. It meant that the junior leader of the famous sect wielded a black sword that was comparable to the Iphwangseong.

at that time.

Hwaak-!

The snow flakes that had been falling with a thud were crushed by the large circular shock wave and pushed away.

The origin was next to Jeongyeonshin. Chilsado, with one ruby-like pupil, was looking around intently. He was keeping his back straight.

The aerodynamic currents that spread reddishly from her body seep into her eyes like flower petals.

Immediately afterwards, words that the subordinates of Socheonmujeok would utter came out of Chilsado’s lips.

“Rudely.”

Hiya―

The leader of the Myonggyo sect let out a soft exclamation.

“Your wife is very extraordinary. If you do a joint attack, there will be a lot of bleeding.”

“Answer me.”

Jeongyeonshin urged him to answer with an indifferent expression.

There was a sound of someone starting to flinch and smoothing out their sleeves, but at this moment, finding out where their seniors were was a priority for him.

“Magwangikju… He really has the spirit. He must be walking around with such a big crown in broad daylight. These days, if you’re a warrior from Ip Hwangseong, you’re considered a target for prey among the most powerful martial artists. This is especially true in Sacheon these days.”

The leader of the Myonggyo sect stood up from his seat.

Socheonmujeok carelessly threw the bamboo fishing rod he was holding and let it fall to the ground, and muttered something as if he was talking to himself through the mouth revealed under his mask.

“They say fishing is like fishing for time, but I really haven’t caught a single fish. It’s making me sick.”

“Someone to eat?”

Jeong Yeon-shin asked. The young sect leader glanced at him and nodded roughly.

“You may not know about Hogwang yet. Well… that’s just the way things are. The people of Iphwangseong. They have plenty of food, and the martial arts skills they have in their heads are quite valuable, but they don’t have any troubles later. In these troubled times, you are the ones who are the busiest.”

The leader said, “I have to take care of the people’s livelihood. I have to do solo missions and such, so I tend to neglect my disciples.”

“Of course, to the third-rate sect’s rascals, he’s still the grim reaper, but for the masters who simply avoided white or blue for fear of the retaliation of the Emperor’s Palace… wouldn’t it be better to commit something and see if it’s better than starving to death during a famine while abiding by the law? Whether it’s looting civilian houses or killing the Emperor’s Palace soldiers who came to capture you.”

The unmanned people of Iphwangseong have been lost from all over the world.

It wasn’t just Suncheonik, Cheonrimdae, and Seonmokryeong. It was said that things that had not been rare in the past were gradually becoming commonplace. There were many warriors in low-ranking uniforms who did not return.

Jeongyeonshin has been learning about these things little by little since she was initiated.

In Sacheonseong Myeonggongdo, many of the seniors of Ma Gwang-ik were sent away, but even after he became the leader of Ma Gwang-ik, the story of the death of the unmanned Iphwangseong never ceased. He was always with them.

“People are bound to get swept up in the flow of the times at some point. Is it any different for Ip Hwang Seong?”

A light flashed in the sect leader’s dark blue eyes. It seemed as if he was seeing right through Jeongyeonshin’s mind.

“The answer you want is probably nothing special. There are so many peerless masters roaming the world that it’s hard to count them on one hand. You could have met one of them and lost it somewhere.”

“Not you?”

“Well, I am one of those peerless masters… but you don’t believe the rumors spread by Yeo-ryeong, do you?”

Those guys are really good at causing discord between Kang Ho and Ip Hwang Seong. The leader of the small group, with his hands clasped together in a leisurely manner, glanced at Jeong Yeon Shin, and then opened his lips again.

“You don’t seem to have much faith. As expected, those authors who are called Muin should mix things up first. I really hate being sick… … .”

For a moment, the silence of the snowfield seemed to have taken on a certain weight. Jeong Yeon-shin felt an invisible pressure weighing down on her shoulders.

Among the masters of the famous school who had previously reacted violently to his words and actions, none of them came out of hiding. This was the case even before the clash.

There is no other meaning. There is absolute confidence in the word invincible attached to the master’s nickname. Just like the trust that the Ma Gwang-ik masters send to Jeong Yeon-shin.

“Shall we exchange two or three moves? Your energy is very ominous, but a master’s sincere intentions will come out from the beginning.”

A black flame blazed beneath the mask of the cult leader. There was no sign of martial arts being activated, nor any crackling sound.

I felt an incredible power from the black flames rising up, wrapping around the thick blood veil.

It was a natural progression. It was a relationship that couldn’t be trusted from the start.

Jeong Yeon-shin released the internal energy collection technique he had inherited from the Blood-Blooding Master. At the same time, a lotus flower made of white light bloomed at his feet.

Neungbeop Gwangryun-gi, Hwan-gang – The ultimate thunderbolt. It’s full power from the first move. It’s the first time since I’ve been transformed. This was the opponent I had to be against.

* * *

There was ruin everywhere. Corpses filled the air amid the smoke billowing as if carried by a typhoon.

It was a place where important matters in the martial arts world were decided. It could be said to be the highest level of the martial arts world.

“The imperial family will be destroyed.”

A soft voice. A man with his entire body wrapped in black cloth. His lower body, with a pitch-black beard, moved slowly under the hat on his head.

“The net of all the great waves in the world will do that. The old waves will probably be able to escape from there.”

“Speak sense.”

It was ten steps ahead.

A man with the impression of a scholar answered. He was wearing a purple yusam that was similar to the attire of a scholar.

There were many enemies surrounding him, glaring at him, but no one dared to approach the man who was his enemy.

Even though there was only one young man in blue uniform standing next to him, frowning as if he were his ally, it was still the same.

A black man wearing a bamboo hat, Yeo Ryeong-ju, was leading the way, facing them with an extremely relaxed attitude.

“You shouldn’t have trusted Palga. Even after being treated like that… … I feel even more sorry for you, Yongga, knowing your sense of justice. The members of the Shingeomdae who will return as corpses from Anpyeongsan over there will not be able to close their eyes from the resentment.”

Behind the new swordsman, a middle-aged swordsman with long blue sleeves was blocking the retreat.

The momentum that filled the world like a translucent Taishan from his pure white sword did not allow any movement. It was the Emperor’s sword type.

“Danju. Now let Kangho go.”

Namgung Jeilgeom of Muryonghoe said.

It wasn’t just them. They knew that twenty li away, the Shingeomdanju and Shingeomdae were firing their deadly arrows at them.

The queen said.

“The plan to defeat the seventeen Shingeomdan units individually will be completed. The annihilation of your Shingeomdan units will be the beginning of the great plan. The same goes for the great lords who were dispatched west from Iphwangseong. Shinkang, Cheonghae, and Sacheon. There are more than five of them.”

It seemed as if he was talking about the lives of those who had already died. The master of Yeo-ryeong. If we were to discuss who the messengers of the world of martial arts are, he was an absolute being with the skills to be ranked first.

The corners of the new sword master’s mouth went up.

He has been through this situation a great deal, and has tolerated for a very long time the free-spirited gangsters running wild like thugs with the power of a god.

Since immediately after inheriting the highest rank from the tyrannical Ma Yeon-jeok, he has lived like a wall that silently blocks the storm.

“These guys are really annoying.”

He muttered.

Swish.

Suddenly, the four scholars in the bag lying at the feet of the new sword master came to mind. The magic of the empty space. The brush, ink, inkstone, and seventeen sheets of paper danced in the air of their own accord.

“What are you talking about?”

The enemies couldn’t move rashly. The new sword master had not yet drawn his special weapon, the Yong-Hwan Sword.

It meant that although he had poisoned them with fate, his power was not reduced. He had to buy time.

“Your Majesty?”

The blue warrior of the Shingeomdan, Yeon So-ha, looked up at his superior. The Shingeomdan leader burst into laughter.

“I guess I won’t be able to remain as a swordsman. Check the contents. My senses have become dull. If there are any missing pages, copy them as they are.”

He faithfully followed the orders of the burning sect. The young man turned his back on the enemies and checked the contents of the letter.

And then he shrugged his shoulders once.

“Really?”

He asked.

“Are you really going to write like this? Seventeen chapters? The great lords gathered lots, but could it be that you are doing this…?”

“It seems like you’re asking me in a roundabout way if I’m in my right mind.”

“No, really?”

He was a loyal follower who burned. He took the back of the paper from the empty space, picked up a brush, and followed along, asking again.

The new sword master chuckled.

“These old, nit-picking senators will finally unanimously decide to take off these clothes. But what can we do now that we have heard about their plans?”

“Is it okay if that ends there? What about the common people?”

“… It is my sin that I must bear. In the judgment of this sect leader, it is better to do this than to perish and be destroyed together.”

The voice was very heavy.

But that was it.

The new sword master did not change his orders.

Parallax!

He simply opened his hands wide and folded the letters hanging on the empty water, sending them flying in all directions.

The documents were tied to the legs of a hawk and a dozen swallows that occupied the air above their heads.

The internal energy skills reached a new level. The sword winds and secret techniques of the enemies surrounding him from all sides were unable to reach him and were torn apart.

Before he knew it, the new sword master had pulled out a light sword that scattered rainbow-colored light and unleashed an incredible amount of sword energy.

“good.”

Until the seventeen yellow-crowned spirits flap their wings and scatter in all directions.

Yeo Ryeong-ju and Namgung Jeil-geom did not stop it. It was because they guessed that it was an extremely developed upper body.

As soon as you try to do something about that letter, the new sword master should make a life-or-death decision without taking care of himself.

“Are you curious about what was written?”

The new sword master asked. The female lord slowly nodded her head.

“I can guess. But can you handle it? The royal family will not sit idly by and watch what you do.”

“Are you feeling the chills down your spine? You strong men must have thought that our castle would be the only one to suffer.”

No answer came back.

The new sword master picked up a letter left in the air with his fingertips. At the same time, smoke of the Samadhi Evolution rose from his fingers.

A burning letter. The words that would shake the world were written in a messy handwriting, and they gradually burned away from the corners.

[Daeju Personal Exhibition. To the distinguished guests.

I am very sorry for being so busy. I know that everyone is very busy. So I don’t know how many people will open this letter, but I will pray to the heavens and end it with this…

The new sword master commands.

Ignore for a moment any harm caused by the gangster gangsters. The Iphwangseong Shingeomdan now seeks our own safety from the entire martial arts world. I will show you what happens when your nature gathers together like those guys.

The black men under me, upon seeing this text, immediately cease all missions and gather at Sacheon Shipjeonmun.

Seventeen.

It’s all powered up.]
