Chapter 490 - Friend of the Eastern Lion

 

Southern directness.

 

Hefei.

 

Yeo Kang-Hyeon Seogyeongjang.



 

As a hostess, Namgung-yeon, who had been married, oversaw the preparations for the trip.

 

She bought a two-headed wagon from Lugang County, and prepared a horse for Gucheonnodo simtong and three treasures.

 

Of course, they both said that they would never get out of the wagon.

 

Considering the hot weather, I didn't buy a lot of dried rice.

 

The preparations for the trip were completed three days after the visit of the Twelve Horsemen.

 

Early moning.

 

Two wagons slowly pulled out of the stone sutras.

 

Sitting next to the driver's seat, he glanced back with an uncomfortable face.

 

Every time that happened, Tang Yun-mang, who was sitting on the roof of the carriage, let out a sneering smirk, saying, “Hey!”

 

Two horses on a long leash followed behind the carriage.

 

The coachman did not take his eyes off the front to avoid getting caught up in the two old men's battle of nerves.

 

'I don't know why these people go inconveniently.'

 

Don't you know if there are no words?

 

It is bizarre that he insists on a narrow carriage while carrying two horses behind him.



 

no wagon.

 

A cool morning breeze blew in through the open window.

 

Wol-a and Geum-ah looked a little excited, but they were not clear-mouthed because they were in front of Jang-ju and Ga-mo.

 

Yeon Jeok-ha said to Namgung-yeon.

 

“Sister, stop by Namgung Family on the way, right? It’s been a while since I haven’t seen my father-in-law and older brother.”

 

“Is that so?”

 

A smile appeared on Namgoongyeon's face.

 

She got married in a hurry last winter and had a new family, but it's already a hot summer.

 

In the meantime, she had visited her father and brother several times, but this was the first time she had visited on her own.

 

'Come to think of it, I'm also an unfilial girl.'

 

She didn't care about Namgung's family under the pretext of preparing for the famous religion and packing up her stone sutras.

 

Thinking that she was going home after a long time, she felt emotions that were difficult to describe.

Namgung Se.



 

Early in the morning, a two-wheeled carriage stopped in front of Crown Prince Namgung.

 

Jeong Seok-dae, a security guard, ignored Simtong, who was sitting next to the coachman.

 

“Shin Dae-hyeop, what are you doing?”

 

Although Shim Tong was from Green Forest, he was from Namcheon, so the sound of “Daegyeop” came out naturally.

 

“I brought the jangjunim and the empress yeon.”

 

At that moment, the movements of the security guards, including Jeong Seok-dae, became busy.

 

Someone opened the gate wide, and another rushed to the main house.

 

Soon after, the carriage slowly entered Namgungse.

 

As soon as the carriage came in, the front door of Namgung Family was closed again.

 

This is a reflection of the will of the ‘King of Swords’ to block the entrance of the wanderers.



 

main building.

 

It was a long-awaited reunion, but the faces of the Sword King Namgung Byeok and the Blue Cloud Sword Namgung Cheon were not bright.

 

I heard that the people of Seokgyeongjang were on their way to Mt. Fungji.

 

“Hmm! In the end it happened. I hoped your predictions were false this time... … .”

 

Namgung Byeok looked at Yeon Jeok Ha and Nam Gung Yeon with a confused expression.

 

Right after Eight Emperors were defeated at Shigyeongjang, she visited Shigyeongjang and heard the story. After that, I was keeping an eye on the results, but I never thought it would turn out like this.

 

Yeon Jeok-ha said as if it was nothing special.

 

"Do not worry too much. The famous religious leader is still a faithful man, so he won’t do anything else.”

 

Then Namgungcheon asked with her surprised face.

 

“The head of that cult keeps the faith? Is that for real?”

 

“Yes, brother. He doesn't go back and forth or talk nonsense because he's doing 'words'. He said the last time he climbed Fengji Mountain he did no harm either. He was at war, so if he was going to kill him, that would have been a better chance.”

 

Namgungcheon turned her attention to Namgungyeon.

 

“Do you think so too?”

 

"yes."

 

“Then why did you follow me?”

 

“Because there is only one thing. If this person falls into an eight-door, eight-way battle, he will be helpless.”

 

"I see."

 

Namgungcheon, who was shaking her head, suddenly spoke to her father.

 

“Father, how about escorting the chief Seokgyeong at Changchundae?”

 

“Changcheondae?”

 

After thinking for a moment, Namgung Byeok shook her head.

 

“I understand what you mean, but it is not a problem that can be solved according to Changchun. If a really famous religious leader eats her bitter mind, who will stop her? Even if the ‘Southern League’ or the ‘Hocheon League’ gets involved, the result will be the same.”

 

"but… … .”

 

Namgungcheon could not continue her words.

 

She didn't want to agree, but it was as her father said.

 

Even if only Baekduma's army came forward, Changchun's squad would not be able to resist properly.

 

Even more, Mt. Pungji is the realm of the absolute power of famous religious leaders.

 

It is embarrassing to mention Changchundae.

 

“Brother, it’s okay. If you don't want to, I'll take my sister and run away. If I decide to run away, even the famous religious leaders can't help it. I am confident of that one.”

 

Namgungcheon smiled bitterly at Yeonjeokha's assertion.

 

It's amazing, but for now, it's because the countermeasure against a series drop is the best.

 

“Then let me accompany you.”

 

Namgung Byeok looked at her son with her perplexed eyes.

 

Fengji Mountain was a dangerous place for her son, who had just entered the absolute realm.

 

Do you think that a master like Yeon Jeok-ha will run away?

 

However, looking at the hardened eyes of his son, it seems that there will be no use in opposing it.

 

“Do it.”

 

Namgung Byeok had no choice but to allow it.

 

She felt like a father lion pushing her cub off a cliff.

 

"No, you don't have to come to my brother?"

 

When Yeonjeokha, who was surprised belatedly, dissuaded him, Namgungcheon grinned.

 

"why? Do you think it will become a burden?”

 

“Oops! It can't be.”

 

Yeonjeokha jumped up and shook his hand.

 

Are you a burden? It's the same as saying someone might not be siblings.

 

Namgungcheon, who had been laughing heartily, said with a meaningful look on her face.

 

“I had an epiphany recently. At least she won't be caught on her feet because of me.”

 

Yeonjeokha looked at Namgungcheon with surprised eyes.

 

The fact that the sound of 'enlightenment' came out of his mouth as a peak master signifies the entry into the absolute realm.

 

"older brother! Congratulations!"

 

“Congratulations, brother.”

 

In response to Yeon Jeok-ha and Namgung-yeon's congratulatory messages, Namgung-cheon waved her hand with a smile on his face.

 

She said, “All right. I'm a lot later than you guys, so what's a celebration?"

 

If she had been congratulated by others, it would have put some weight on her shoulders.

 

However, 'Namcheon' and 'Ten Warlords' were inferior to her, but they were more advanced than herself, so she was embarrassed.

 

Namgung Byeok looked at her son, her daughter, and her son-in-law with her happy eyes.

 

Being at that age is like a miracle.

 

There are three such miracles in front of my eyes, and even all of them are my blood relatives.

 

Her heart was filled with pride that even the ancestors of the Namgung Sega had never felt before.

 

But the excitement is short-lived.

 

The pride was gone and anxiety took its place.

 

'ha! Famous schools are the problem.'

 

I was going to send the future leaders of Namgung and Gangho to Mt. Pungji, but the end of my stomach was blocked.

 

How many lions can climb up that cliff?

 

If it wasn't for the 'Southern Alliance', he wanted to protect them secretly.

 

It is because they know that the world is not easy to rely only on the goodwill of famous religious leaders.

 

However, there were too many people to meet as the leader of the newly created ‘Southern Alliance’.

 

'Madam, please watch over those children at least from heaven.'

starlight.

 

Yeosan.

 

Myeongwanggyo.



 

The sultry end of August.

 

The sudden visit of the masters of the Demonic Cult turned the silent Myeongwanggyo upside down.

 

The noisy Gwangmyeong Village was controlled and not a single ant roamed around.



 

Cheok Jin-gyeong, the Honsei Swordsman, Kang Sang-pi, the Honcheon-blood, and the Evil Buddha Bangcheon-gak, now reduced to the three great gods, greeted the distinguished guests of the Demonic Cult in front of the ‘Gwangmyeongjeong Pavilion’.

 

Noh Do-gyeong, the eldest spirit demon sword, who is an oriental lion who has a face with the three great gods, stepped forward.

 

“Lord Moon, they are the godheads who lead the Myeongwanggyo. Everyone, say hello. This is Chohongwima-nim, the head of the Demonic Cult’s Mugwanggokseong Gate.”

 

At the introduction of Noh Do-kyung, the three elders entered the town in turn.

 

“It is called Cheokjin-gyeong, the Honsei Geomma, the god of Myeongwang.”

 

“I am Kang Sang-pi, a demon of heavenly blood.”

 

"It's the evil fire bangcheongak."

 

Compared to the Demonic Cult, the Mingwang Cult is a candle in front of the sun.

 

Naturally, the attitude of the three people was intimidated.

 

Yojingal replaced the greeting with a nod of the head as befits the head of the six gates.

 

Cheok Jin-kyung, who was watching, pointed to Gwangmyeong-jeong.

 

“Eat inside.”

 

Cheok Jin-kyung, Kang Sang-pi, and Bang Cheon-gak walked ahead as if guiding them.

 

They were followed by Noh Do-gyeong, Yo Jin-gal, and Ubul-do, the life-giving spirit of the Daeju of the Blood Dragons.

 

The rest of Mugwanggokseong Gate Mundo and the Blood Dragons stood in front of Gwangmyeongjeong Pavilion like iron bars.

 

Blocked by them, the twelve horsemen of Myeongwanggyo did not dare to enter Gwangmyeongjeong Pavilion.

 

Although the owner and guest have been switched, the twelve horse soldiers did not open their mouths.



 

Gwangmyeongjeong.

 

When everyone was seated, Cheok Jin-gyeong carefully took a fortune.

 

“Lion of the East, since Mount Lu is a long way from Mount Cheon, why did you bring the lord Mun with you?”

 

Cheok Jin-gyeong couldn't bear to ask Yojin-gal and hung on to Noh Do-gyeong.

 

Noh Do-kyung changed the topic.

 

“I heard that the famous cult killed one of the priests of the Myeongwang cult? Did you say the red moon... … .”

 

An awkward smile appeared on Chuck Jin-kyung's face.

 

What does it have to do with Jeokwol being taken to Yumyeong Bridge and the Demonic Cult descending to Mount Lu?

 

“Yes, but does it have anything to do with it?”

 

Not only Cheok Jin-gyeong, but Kang Sang-pi and Bang Cheon-gak couldn't take their eyes off Do-kyung Noh's mouth.

 

“Yes. Wasn't I treated well in Myeongwanggyo? When I heard the news, I felt bad. If this happens, other will be in danger, so I posted a message to the religious leader. Then, the religious leader asked me to help the Myeongwang Church.”

 

“Is that true?”

 

“We, the Demonic Cult, do not lie. isn't it? Lord Moon?”

 

Then Yojingal nodded his head.

 

“As the eastern messenger said. The headmaster considers you, the Xinjiang of Myeongwanggyo, to be 'friends of the eastern lion'. Isn't that just an illusion of the Lion of the East alone?”

 

Along with the horse, Yojingal gazed intently at the them.

 

The three trembled at the strange light that flowed from Yojingal's eyes.

 

Demonic cults are naturally good at killing people.

 

Green forests and famous bridges cannot even be compared.

 

The gods did not dare to say that they were not friends of the eastern lion.

 

That's why the moment you say you're not friends, you've scorned the Demonic Cult leader.

 

Sensing a crisis, Kang Sang-pi hurriedly spoke.

 

“Are you mistaken? It's not like that. We, too, were missing the days when we had candid conversations with the lions of the East. isn't it? ”

 

Kang Sang-pi glanced at Cheok Jin-gyeong and Bang Cheon-gak.

 

Bangcheongak tactfully continued the conversation.

 

"you're right. Certainly, I communicated well with the messenger from the East. Even if it's not, I recently told the story of the east lion. It seems to have come to mind.”

 

In fact, there was a time when they quarreled over the issue of committing to the Demonic Cult rather than the “Eastern Messenger,” but what about who?

 

'It's better to be friends a hundred times than to have enemies.'

 

Looking at Yojingal's eyes, it seemed that if he said that he was not a friend, he would be stabbed with a knife.

 

On the other hand, unlike the two who made up their minds early on, Cheok Jin-gyeong was not comfortable inside.

 

It's because I don't want to be tied up with the names of 'Lion of the East' and 'Friend'.

 

It is true that Noh Do-kyung's inaction looks great, but he is only an 'Eastern Lion'.

 

On the other hand, the gods are the masters of Myeongwanggyo.

 

Three gods, who are no different from the religious leaders of Myeongwanggyo, become friends with Noh Do-kyung?

 

It's not just a mere joke.

 

Noh Do-kyung is Yojin-gal's subordinate, so Yojin-gal is sitting on top of the heads of the chieftains.

 

Cheok Jin-gyeong and Yo Jin-gal's conflicted gazes met in the air.

 

Seeing those eyes shining like the eyes of a snake, Chuck Jin-kyung was awakened.

 

“He is a friend we deserve.”

 

Chuck Jin-kyung emptied his mind.

 

It was because he didn't want to lose to the Demonic Cult over the formidable enemy of the famous cult.

 

In this way, the ‘Myeongwanggyo’ became ‘friends’ with the Demonic cult ‘Eastern Lion’.

 

The elders tried to soothe the displeasure, saying, "I'm low on rank, but I still hold on to the lifeline."
