Moon-Shadow Sword Emperor

Chapter 83



Episode 83

The journey to Honam went smoothly.

There were no frequent thieves like when touring the entire Zhejiang Province, and there was no need to feel frustrated seeing Tianyu Dojang not knowing how to do anything.

I managed to hire a large-scale military bureau, rent two luxurious carriages, and entrusted the escorts to messengers, and moved around while looking at the scenery outside.

At the end of a ten-day journey, we passed through Gangseo and reached Honam.

Even though there was still quite a bit of time before the Yongbong branch was held, the main street was crowded with people.

The faces of the residents preparing for the large-scale festival were full of energy.

There was a clear comparison with the residents of Zhejiang, who were in danger of death after being exploited by the Black Island and bandits.

My party and I parted ways with the group in Changsha, Hunan Province, and headed toward Dongdong Lake.

Around the huge freshwater lake, there were all kinds of docks, guest ships, and docks scattered around.

I stepped into the largest guesthouse among them.

At that moment, Sa Ho-seon, who was eating in the restaurant on the first floor, got up from her seat and came towards me.

“Are you here?”

“Are you resting well?”

“yes. But…”

Sa Ho-seon hesitated and trailed off.

I intuitively knew something was up.

“What happened?”

“There is a problem.”

“problem?”

“As you instructed, I found a place to stay and paid for it in advance, but two days ago, some thugs came in and took over the room.”

“What does that mean?”

“They said they were the servants of the Hwangbo family.”

Hwangbo Sega (皇甫世家).

A huge martial arts force that occupied the first place in the five great families.

Hwang Bo-gak, the head of the Taesang family, was an absolute master who held the first seat of the Ten Heavenly Emperors as the King of Kwon of his time.

In the near future, he will lose his life at the hands of the Vampire Demon Emperor, one of the Eight Great Demon Lords, and hand over the throne to Dokgo Woojin.

“So you obediently handed over the accommodation?”

“I had no choice. “It wasn’t a number that I could do anything about on my own, and more than anything, the injuries weren’t healed yet…”

Dongdong Lake was famous as a tourist attraction.

As a result, the accommodations located nearby were popular with tourists.

When large-scale events such as the Yongbong Branch are held, it is not uncommon for the hotel to be packed with guests months in advance.

Therefore, I sent Seo Ho-seon first and instructed him to secure accommodation.

The plan was to pay in advance and secure a good room.

However, the accommodation I spent a lot of money on was taken away by someone.

I couldn’t help but feel absurd.

“It’s an excuse. “Have you figured out the number of people and each member’s profile?”

“yes. There is a late Jisoo named Hwang Bo-jin and seven warriors guarding him. “All of them were masters who had reached their peak.”

My mood calmed down.

I had heard the name Hwang Bo-jin in a past life.

Future Kwon Ryong (拳龍).

He gained fame by achieving good results in the Yongbong Branch and later entered the war against the Demonic Cult and made various achievements.

In terms of reputation alone, he was a person who was ranked far above the other dragons.

However, as a demonic cultist who participated in various battlefields, I had never once encountered a fighting dragon.

Not only me, but all the famous masters of the Demonic Cult told similar stories.

Kwon Ryong’s reputation was fabricated based on fiction.

A conversation I had with Prince Cheonak in the past passed through my mind.

[Isn’t he exactly similar to those guys?]

[What do you mean by those guys?]

[The elders of the alliance.]

[Ah…]

[He’s a funny guy. Do you think that gaining a false reputation will make you anything?]

[The elders of the Meng, who never show up on the battlefield, are well-fed and well-fed.] [Well,

that too . I see.]

[The more cunning they are, the longer their lifespan is.]

I said, pointing with my index finger to the stairs leading upstairs.

“Please guide me to the room he is staying in.”

“Are you trying to protest?”

“That’s right.”

After explaining the situation to the group that followed, I headed to the room located in the center of this floor with Seo Ho-seon.

When I knocked on the door, an annoyed voice came out.

“Who are you?”

“I am the person who reserved this room.”

“I’m busy! If you have something to say, go to Musa Yu and say it!”

I glared at the door with a puzzled expression.

Based on my memories from my past life, I guessed that he wasn’t usually a shameless person, but I never thought he would be like this.

At the very least, shouldn’t we tell them who Musa Yu is and say something like that?

“Warrior Yu!”

A loud voice rang out.

Soon the door to the next room burst open and a middle-aged man with a bushy beard appeared.

He asked me, sternly embracing me.

“Hwang Bose is Yoo Kang-hoon, the leader of Hwangjangdae. “You seem to be in a bad mood right now, so if you have anything to say, please tell me.”

Magnificent physique.

Her hair reached down to her shoulders and she was wearing thick clothes that were unsuitable for the weather.

There were dark shadows under the eyes, giving off a strong, uneasy feeling.

“You need to leave the room.”

“I’m sorry, but I can’t do that.”

“I was the one who first sent someone to find a room and paid for the long-term stay.”

“If it is a rental fee, I will refund it. Please try to find other accommodations.”

“I don’t know why I have to give up my room.”

“Don’t you think that in a situation where tourists are flocking from all over to see Yongbongjihoe, it is not right to send someone to secure accommodation first instead of coming yourself?”

“……?”

What kind of nonsense does this sound like?

Since there was no proper justification, I just sat there saying whatever I could.

There was still some time left before the Yongbong branch opened.

The luxury guesthouses near Dongjeong Lake may have already been fully booked, but the situation was different for ordinary lodging establishments.

Finding an empty room is not a problem if you just want to find it.

Moreover, the owner of the inn did not suffer any loss just because I paid the advance.

“Are you saying you’re going to take my room for such a ridiculous reason?”

“It’s not taken away. It is transferred according to legal procedures. “The owner of the guesthouse has already agreed to this.”

As the owner of the house, he would have had no choice but to accept the determined and unreasonable actions of the Murim people, who had a sinister atmosphere.

The man who called the food and guard warrior was the same guy.

I realized that further conversation was unnecessary.

‘The only option is to beat them up and kick them out.’

I rubbed my chin and thought for a moment.

It was good to have a fight, but the problem was the location.

It would be inconvenient if the accommodation that was to be used for several months was ruined in the aftermath of the fight.

After thinking for a while, I quickly came to a conclusion.

If there was no suitable location, all you had to do was set up a suitable stage and lure them away.

I happened to have several items that could tempt them.

I said, glaring at the middle-aged man with cold eyes.

“Since we have no intention of giving in to each other, we will have no choice but to use force to resolve the dispute.”

“Are you serious?”

“Did it sound like a joke?”

“You will regret it.”

“We’ll just have to wait and see.”

“I’m giving you one last chance. “I will refund your rental fee, so please quietly leave.”

Instead of answering, I kicked the door of Hwang Bo-jin’s room loudly.

Immediately, the swear words uttered by Hwang Bo-jin penetrated my ears.

Yoo Kang-hoon, a middle-aged man, asked with a sigh.

“Are you saying you really want to choose beolju (罰酒)?”

“I will wear my Cheonjamboui (天蠶寶衣).”

I pulled the collar with my index finger and showed him the Cheonjamboui I wore underneath my outer garment.

Yoo Kang-hoon let out a gasping moan.

“Cheonjamboui!”

Immediately after, the door burst open and a young man with a youthful appearance stuck his head out.

Contrary to his appearance, he had a considerable physique as he was a direct descendant of Hwang Bo-sega.

I crossed my arms arrogantly and glanced at the young man.

“What would you like to bet on?”

* * *

A deserted field.

In the center, Hwang Bo-jin and I stood facing each other with a distance of three feet.

Seo Ho-seon’s electric sound penetrated my ears.

-Are you okay?

-What do you mean?

-The opponent is a direct blood relative of the Hwang Bose family.

-What does that mean?

-If done incorrectly, it can develop into a big problem.

-Nothing you worry about will happen. The justification is here.

-Well, if a member of the Tang family and a disciple of the Hwasan faction would come forward as witnesses…

The image of Hwang Bo-jin wearing a gauntlet with a happy face came into view.

I bent my neck making a ‘tap’ sound and placed my hand on the sword.

“Please take off your clothes.”

“……?”

“Conditions should be equal. “Don’t you think it’s cowardly to go into battle wearing such valuables?”

Hwang Bo-jin grinned as if provoking him.

‘This is outrageous.’

A burst of laughter came out.

On the battlefield, a guy like that was bound to be the first to die.

‘He will never appear on a dangerous battlefield anyway, so I guess it doesn’t matter?’

I said, staring at Hwang Bo-jin with narrow eyes.

“It’s a bit awkward to take off your clothes here, so how about something like this? Just hold on for fifty seconds. Then, I will assume that Hwangbo Cooperative has won.

“what?”

“I think I’ve seen a lot of things like this.”

“Such an arrogant bastard!”

“Instead, I will take the lead.”

I had no intention of wasting time in a needless fight.

After bowing with a light fist, he immediately kicked the ground and rushed towards his opponent.

Hwang Bo-jin looked puzzled as he watched me quickly close the distance.

He shouted with great enthusiasm and unleashed his five-element fist.

The short, sharp blow flew towards the shoulder, chest, and abdomen.

I let go of all the attacks by lightly twisting my upper body, and then unleashed the first attack of the Wolyeonggeom.

The first herbivorous current month.

The sword’s trajectory soared in a gentle curve.

Hwang Bo-jin calmly stepped back and blocked it with his gauntlet.

Even if he was rotten, he definitely seemed to have the skills to be in the top ranks of the Yongbong branch.

Unlike Cheonwoo Dojang, his judgment and ability to deal with situations were not bad even though he was a first-time member of Kangho.

I continued to attack Hwangbo-jin by using the Wolyeonggeom attack.

After about thirty seconds of exchange, Hwang Bo-jin was deceived by an illusion and threw a punch into the empty air.

The posture collapsed and major weaknesses were revealed.

I immediately entered into the gap between my opponent and struck his abdomen with a powerful fist, which was a skill of striking.

The seventh herbivorous fist of Byeokryeokken (碎腸拳).

“Kaaak!”

Hwang Bo-jin flew out, blood spurting from his mouth, and rolled around on the ground.

Just as he was about to give chase to finish the chase, a roaring lion’s roar exploded.

“dare!”

Six guard warriors came out and surrounded Seo Ho-seon as if surrounding him, aiming their fists.

Meanwhile, team leader Yoo Kang-hoon ran to Hwang Bo-jin and supported him.

I looked at them one by one with a shocked expression and muttered.

“I knew it would be like this.”
