Surviving as a Genius on Borrowed Time Chapter 82

scramble

“Seomye······ I envy the other side. I want to see a showdown that will shock the world. Namgung Gaju’s opponent is truly unexpected.”

“It was inevitable. The Lord has been out of town recently.”

“The Eight Great Powers must oppose the head of the family, and there is no one else but the head of the family.”

Jeongyeon Shin silently listened to the conversations of the seniors surrounding her.

There was only one person in the world they could call Danju.

Seventeen members of the armed forces, including Ma Gwang-ik, Sun Cheon-ik, and Myeolseomdae, gathered together to form the Shingeomdan.

Danju was the first and only Shin Geum Danju of Iphwangseong. He was the highest of all people under the Seongju. He was extremely respected.

‘I haven’t met you yet.’

I haven’t been able to see him even once since I entered the temple.

The new sword master was always a presence in the martial arts world. It was said that he was writing down actions that the nobles called legendary.

It is said that he is exercising absolute power on the front lines and fulfilling his original role as a commander.

“Aren’t you out on a mission?”

“The direct divine sword force has also been away for a long time. Rumor has it that they went to fight the remaining spirits.”

“If that’s the case, I’ll go straight to Namgung Se-ga without returning······.”

The seniors’ stories continued above the head of the seated Jeong Yeon-shin.

“Did you say Yeo-ryeong?”

Jeongyeonshin suddenly asked.

“They are counted among the thirteen thousand. They value wealth and information more than martial arts, and they are a very annoying faction.”

A middle-aged woman with very sharp eyes answered him, patting his head.

He was a blue warrior named Oh Wol-hyang, a Taoist master who treated Jeong Yeon-sin like a son.

Several seniors intervened.

“Cunning is better than brute force. Those bastards of Yeo-ryeong are skilled at plotting behind the scenes. They’re better off dealing with sword-wielding demons like Paegeomjong.”

“There is also talk that he holds the Haomun in his hand. There is also information that he is most connected with the other Thirteen Heavenly Heavens. Seomye, you may have been hit many times without knowing it.”

Yeo-ryeong. Another thirteen heavens.

‘Thirteen thousand······.’

It was said that the thirteen Safa groups had a power equal to that of the Nine Papalgas. It was a vast land.

It seemed that the new sword master was not enough to control them.

Although some of the Eight Great Masters display hypocrisy in the secular world, the wickedness of the Thirteen Heavenly Kings, who were born as Sima Yi-do, is even more prominent.

‘Personally, I’ve clashed with the Blood Flame Cult and the Sword Cult. There’s also the Simmu Cult.’

Not to mention the Blood Flame Cult and the Sword Cult that clashed several times. Shim Mu-ryeon’s swordsmanship once cut off the head of the later index.

Her background and Margin’s advice to her fiancé came to mind.

It was right after he killed Hwang Bo-jun, the swordsman who had arrived while being chased by the Blood Flame Cult.

─You, Kang-ho’s reaction is unusual. The fight between the martial arts forces is not just an all-out war. The battle between the sources is no different. I heard from the General Office. They say there are people who are investigating the movements of Ip-Hwang-Seong Seom-Ye.

‘The enemies have increased.’

The bonds of affection that formed when going on a mission grew rapidly. I had a feeling that this journey into the world of martial arts would not be smooth sailing either.

Could this be a premonition of the upper-body power? It didn’t seem like it would end in failure.

“The departure is in four days. It’s urgent to gather what we have. It would be best for everyone to step aside.”

It was Qingming.

As I waved my hand, a cold wind blew like a sword. The masters of Ma Gwang-ik retreated in a hurry.

Soon, they all smiled as if it was a daily routine and moved away, each encouraging Jeongyeonshin.

Jeongyeonshin stood up, dusting off her pants.

“senior.”

“Haven’t you gained a lot from this comeback? You need to get things sorted out before you report back.”

The blue eyes slightly curved. Cheongmyeong continued speaking with a smiling face.

“For example, something like the English alphabet.”

* * *

“Mister Jangmyeong, your face has brightened. Did you drink something good?”

A young swordsman in her early twenties greeted us cheerfully.

The blue uniform covering his entire body was extremely dark.

As he approached the magnificent main gate of the Namgung family without hesitation, clouds of dust rose beneath his brisk footsteps.

Servants and warriors escorting her from behind followed her like a backdrop.

“miss.”

One of the water gate guards looked at him with a dazzling expression.

He bowed his head to the woman who approached him and said while raising his winning ticket.

“It seems that the one who has truly changed is Changryeong Hwaju. I congratulate you on your great success.”

“Congratulations on your success!”

The five warriors guarding the gate together bowed together.

The movement of raising both hands into fists occurred at the same time. It even gave off a sharp sound like a wave of a sword.

Not just anyone can guard the main gate of the Murim Daebangpa.

This was especially true for the martial arts world, which was known as the Se-ga (世家) because its power had lasted for a long time.

That was because the water gate guard was soon to become the face of the breakwater.

Naturally, it displayed a majestic appearance that was unparalleled in Namjikrye Hwiju, and pedestrians on the opposite street could not take their eyes off it.

He whispered very quietly as he passed by.

“They behave like that?”

“You fool. Those guarding you are also Namgung’s people. At first glance, you can tell they are the precious jewels of Sega.”

“Namgung Se-ga’s Changnyeonghwaju? That lady’s face is so rosy and tanned. Isn’t she very white?”

“How can you run the business when the news is so late? There is a story that you ate the human-shaped snow ginseng that has been passed down by word of mouth. The mysterious and cool energy even changed your skin. You are very lucky. You have witnessed a legend of the martial arts world.”

“What? A doll?”

Namgung Mi, the princess of Changnyeonghwa, heard everything. She didn’t pay much attention to it.

They are not wrong. He took the legendary doll Seol-sam for himself.

Her brother, father, Sogaju and Gaju were already masters of the lower abdomen who had filled their true energy.

“Well, it’s thanks to the good fight against the bloodthirsty ones. Have a nice day, everyone.”

She smiled faintly and passed them by.

I could clearly hear the small sounds of people making a fuss behind me.

The warriors of the Sega clan were of use as inferiors. They were likely to receive the kind of respect that was reserved for the princesses of the imperial family.

A smile and a quick hello were enough. The things I had been entitled to since birth felt even sweeter today.

“I’m going to see my brother, so get some rest. You’ve worked hard.”

He gave a word to those who followed him and walked away. He responded with a polite wave of the hand.

Wow!

The light air split the air with just a few steps. Those passing by the inner chambers of the family were startled and saluted.

Only direct descendants were allowed to move within the family, and the Namgung family’s eye technique made it easy to recognize the noblewomen of the family whose skin color had changed.

Namgung Mi headed straight to Sega’s Changgungjeon (蒼穹殿). It was where the Sogaju learned the duties of the head of the household.

“I congratulate you on your great achievements.”

There were guards who bowed their backs as if they were afraid to enter.

They were all unmanned soldiers of the Changgungjeon. They were different from the water gate warriors.

They behaved as if they were serving royalty, but they were truly loyal subjects.

The main pillar of Sega that does not waver no matter what rumors blow in from outside.

‘Even if the royal dogs swear that they will violate the main house······.’

Namgung Mi thought.

“The Lord gave his word.”

A single man guided her. The interior of the pavilion was elegantly decorated with blue curtains of exquisite texture.

Musa stopped at a corner of the hallway and spoke.

“He said you can eat it right away.”

She nodded slightly and opened the door. The magnificently drawn sword symbol was pushed aside at the same time.

Namgung Sogaju’s office was revealed with a soft sound.

In a room that could be used as a training ground, there was a table of precious sandalwood in a bronze color.

“You have achieved small success.”

Namgung Sejin, the blue giraffe, spoke while sitting.

Calm eyes, a high nose, and beautiful facial features.

He was truly a dazzling scholar, and his eyes never took off from the document he was skimming through.

Namgung Mi didn’t care and brought a chair.

She sat down across from me, crossed her legs, and opened her mouth.

“Everyone says he’s a great success.”

“When the Blood Flame Cult made a surprise attack on our home, we had to reserve all our power to find that doll. Your internal energy achievements are nothing more than mere magnification. Compared to your sacrifices, they are just so-so.”

Brother’s answer was indifferent.

Namgung Se-ga is the blue giraffe among the blue and white twin giraffes. Before Namgung Hwa-shin was called the white giraffe, he was first given the title of the divine giraffe.

He was a direct descendant of Baek Gi-rin, who was famous for his upright and honest personality, and who had great power and dignity added to it. He was arrogant.

“Even like this?”

Ss …

Namgung Mi’s skin became even whiter, along with her lightly flowing hair.

The documents on the table shake in the aftermath of the sudden qi attack.

A mysterious white current swept over her entire body.

The appearance of the goddess of the north wind and snow, wrapped in a cold wind, was clearly revealed due to her true energy.

He held the elixir of the age within his body. The depth of the energy wave was endless.

She opened her mouth.

“The royal guard dogs dared to declare war on our homeland? And even a life-or-death battle? That’s outrageous. Can the new sword master defeat our father, who mastered the Emperor’s Sword Form?”

The Emperor’s army cannot help the Emperor.

This is because in the martial arts world where the nerves are developed, if a mission fails, the imperial family will suffer a serious loss of prestige.

The imperial family and the imperial court never recognized any external connections.

That was the reason why countless warriors of the Imperial Family were dying in the vast world of martial arts.

This time too, only a fight between the two remains.

The Hwangrip Bangpa Iphwangseong and Jeongpa Cheonhadaeilga Namgung Hojok.

It is not even an all-out collective war like the Hwangbo Se-ga incident.

If there were only ten legitimate fighters, no matter who the opponent was, there would never be any fear of defeat among the Eight Great Masters.

Namgung Sejin said.

“Don’t assume the work of the best fighters. You know, but you’ve been nominated as well. The contents of the secret plan have been made known throughout the Central Plains, and it must be the work of Ip Hwang-seong. If you don’t step forward, the reputation of the Sega family will be ruined. You can’t refuse. The whole world of martial arts is going to gather to watch.”

“And what if my guys lose? I mean, Ip Hwang Seong.”

“No one fights with the expectation of defeat. We are no exception. It’s not usually a big event. The prestige of the winning side will be greatly enhanced.”

“My beauty and nickname will become more widely known. No, I’ll completely get rid of the Jongnam faction’s Weizhi Myohwa and become the Sword Dragon. And······”

Namgung Mi continued speaking with a calm expression.

“They said our Hwasin is coming back.”

A smooth smile appeared on her lips. Immediately, Namgung Sejin furrowed his brows.

“That child is also your brother.”

“How can something be considered illegitimate? It’s strange for my brother to say something like that. More than that.”

Namgung Mi’s smile deepened as she responded nonchalantly.

“The guy who started the incident was on the list, right? The guy who used the kind of shady tricks that only worked on the weak. Like Seomye. I saw him briefly last time.”

“It’s not a martial art to belittle. It was a divine art. Can’t you imagine what kind of threat it would pose in a group fight?”

She ignored her brother’s words with a small laugh.

“I want to make that child the touchstone of my achievements. Let’s go see him. Seomye and Baekgirin.”

“what?”

“The royal guard dogs have declared war, right? They’ve already informed the entire martial arts world. Even the new sword master can’t kill us until we’re done. It’s not something you can answer for, but isn’t your brother dissatisfied with the Seomye incident? Don’t you want to see if he’s worth killing? You should also have a pre-reunion with your soon-to-be-deceased brother.”

“······Are you really planning to kill Asin?”

“Not Asin, but Incarnation. You’re not that young anymore, are you?”

“······.”

“You must be about to leave. I want to meet you in advance and propose a winning combination. If it’s a five-on-five match, I’ll fight the youngest first, so I’ll kill Seomye first and then we’ll have a match with Hwasin. If it’s Hyeseon, my brother, I don’t want to get my illegitimate son’s blood on my hands.”

“Are you serious?”

“Do you think this little sister will lose?”

Namgung Mi asked with a blushing smile. Her lips, like ruby, stood out against her snow-white skin.

“······That’s not what I meant. You won’t lose, right?”

Namgung Sejin, who had been staring blankly at her, shook his head.

Soon, he shows a calm expression as if he heard the words he had been hoping for.

“I can guess your swordsmanship skills. The cold energy of your internal energy will freeze the opponent’s meridians. If your power is not overwhelming, there is no way to counter it. If the level is even, it is a sure victory. Unless your opponent has been practicing the art of the pupil for his entire life.”

“Why the pupils?”

“The monks who have mastered Shaolin’s Reverse Path have the ability to transform even the inside of their bodies. It is said that they are able to create the flame of Samadhi True Fire within their bodies without any difficulty. However, this is not something you should worry about right now.”

“Yeah.”

She frowned at Ami as if she found it annoying, then smiled again.

And asked.

“So, do you want to go see it?”

* * *

On the day of the Namgung Segae Non-Mu delegation’s trip to Gangho.

Jeongyeonshin took the elixir she received from the pharmacy.

It was a reward for the missions performed as a member of the Blue Order. It was said to be a high-quality elixir even in the Imperial City.

A boy sitting cross-legged in the middle of the Ma Gwang-ik Daeyeonmujang.

Hwaaaaak!

The hem of the blue robe flapped constantly.

It was very different from the popular English diet I had when I first started.

The air wave spreading across my body was gradually becoming thicker. Occasionally, faint air currents could be seen.

The typology of Jin-gi. A golden halo of light flashed and disappeared intermittently.

Among them, all kinds of noises were rampant.

The masters of Ma Gwang-ik were standing in a large circle, protecting the youngest blue sword. Heonwonchang was also there.

─My Lord, what is that color?

Iphwangdaehyeop asked Ma Gwangikju Ma Jin without hesitation. Ma Jin, who was staring blankly at his nephew, opened his lips slightly.

─I heard that you have laid the groundwork for the creation of the Heart Method. It is not uncommon for the sudden increase of true energy to fuel the germination of enlightenment. For now, it may only be the energy of the spirit, but perhaps the Supreme Heart Method will be born within this year.

─Ugh······.

─Send a breathy exclamation as a telegram? Be polite, Heonwonchang.

Heonwonchang turned a deaf ear to Daeju’s scolding. He had no choice.

It was because the benefactor who had saved his life had already stopped sending waves of true energy.

“Jeong So-hyeop!”

Phew─.

Jeongyeonshin took a deep breath.

“Heonwon Sohyeop?”

He opened his mouth with his eyes still closed. He seemed to sense the presence of Heonwonchang, who approached him cautiously. Heonwonchang asked.

“Are you done?”

“yes.”

“I really wonder. How strong have you become?”

At those words, Jeong Yeon-shin slowly opened her eyes, and the full energy was revealed in her deep blue eyes.

The sky blue of his eyes was turning into a blue light.

“I don’t know.”

The boy answered.
