Chapter 166

A pile of snow at the main entrance to Seongmagak.
When he stepped outside, he was met with an unexpected sight.
Thirty or so martial men were standing in front of the castle gate.
Judging by the twin dragon sigils on their sleeves, they were the heads of their respective organizations, awaiting the call of the Heavenly Emperor.
-You’re here, the disciple of Nangyagak.
The eyes of the uninitiated who gazed at the snow outside were filled with a steady sneer.
“Unfortunately, being a successor is not something you can do in a vacuum.”
One of the drones muttered something, and a low voice chimed in.
“Does it make sense for a disciple of Nangyagak to be the successor to the main hall?”
The position of heir to the throne requires the submission of a majority of the Magisterium, gaining their power and support.
However, Nanyagak focuses solely on martial arts, does not grow in power, and does not interact with any of the other martial arts schools.
In short, they locked themselves away for the dance. And now the former head of that sect is a candidate to succeed him?
From their perspective, it’s unacceptable.
“Vice Society.”
Just then, a pale pink shadow moved past the gathered drones and toward Buunsun.
She was a beautiful woman, dressed in flowing blue robes and golden jewelry in her hair.
In the past, when Bu Eun-sul was in the gutters, she was saved from the killer bees by her housekeeper. It was Dansook.
“So you are the Ten Warriors of Nangyagak.”
Dan Shaoxue bared her white teeth and smiled widely, and Bu Eunsul clasped her hands together.
“It’s been a while.”
Squeal.
Dan Shaoxing’s friendly demeanor toward Bu Eunsul caused the martial artists watching from afar to shake their heads.
-Isn’t he the one who’s supposed to be the next commander-in-chief?
-How does she know the ten horsemen of Nangyagak when she’s always by her master’s side?
Jumbled.
Then, there was a figure approaching, surrounded by dozens of weasels.
Then the eyes of the uninitiated became strange.
This is because there are only a limited number of people who can lead dozens of unarmed men in front of the temple’s main hall.
Purr.
The weavers stood in front of Bu Eunseol and solemnly marched in formation.
At the same time, the ranks parted and a large, middle-aged man in a black robe strode toward them.
Then the martial artists in front of the castle gate bowed their heads in haste and said yes.
Eek.
The burly middle-aged man strode up to Bu Eun-sul and opened his mouth.
“Are you a swollen tongue?”
The middle-aged man’s entire body exuded a majesty that overwhelmed everyone.
“Yes.”
When Bu Eun-sul replied politely, Dan Shaoxue whispered to her.
“My father, who is a housekeeper. He’s a single man, single father.”
Against the night sky, the moon is eclipsed.
He was the butler’s lieutenant, in command of all the troops of the Demon Warriors, with the exception of the Demon Emperor and his immediate lieutenants.
“Nangyagak’s disciple, Bu Eun-sul, visits the master of the house.”
Nodding, Dan Yuehong spoke in a low voice.
“I risked my life to save Jade.”
“I was just doing what I was given to do.”
Dan Yuehong glanced around and placed a hand on Bu Eunseol’s shoulder.
“Move over.”
He then led the way in a very friendly manner.
The martial artists were stunned.
-Nangyagak You mean to tell me that the former Nangyagak was acquainted with the master of the house?
The master of the house, the top tycoon in the ten fingers of the protocol sequence, is friendly to Bu Eunseol?
“…….”
The martial artists, who looked at Bu Eunseol with disdain, averted their gaze and coughed in vain, as if they had done so many times before.
Butler Zhengmakak (Zhengmakak).
This hall was used to honor dignitaries and entertain guests.
Danwolhon brought Bueunseol to the front of the square.
Are they trying to be hospitable and throw a big banquet?
But there was no one inside the main hall, and no banquet tables were set up.
Not only that, but the favorable expression on Dan Wolhon’s face, which had been very friendly, had disappeared.
But Bu Eun-sul stood tall in the silence. As if she had expected it all.
“You’re not surprised.”
The tightly closed mouth of the moon horn slowly opened.
“Then I know why I brought you here.”
“Like I said, I was just doing my job.”
Bu Eun-sul clapped her hands together and said yes again.
“And yet, you’ve done us a favor like this, and we’re just grateful.”
Dan Yuehong’s expression was impassive.
“To be honest, what happened today was not of my own volition, but at the behest of Xiao’En.”
He paused for a moment, then spoke.
“Ever since I learned that you were headed to the main temple to enlighten the Heavenly Emperor, I have been begging you every day.”
I had a vague idea of the swollen tongue.
The landlord suddenly realized that he had come to show her hospitality because she had asked him to.
Despite being a candidate to succeed the Ma Tianzhi, Bu Eunsul has no base or support within the Ma Clan.
She knew this so well that she asked Dan Yuehon, the landlord of the house, to save Bu Eunseol’s dignity.
“Xiao Jade even predicted that on your way out of the Heavenly Realm, you’d find a group of leaders gathered. Do you know what I mean?”
Bu Eun-sul nodded slightly.
Dan So-ok is the next in line to be the next general, so she should have been able to predict Bu-eun-sul’s travels beforehand.
Dan Yuehong’s eyes deepened.
“The Nangya Pavilion may have great status in the martial world, but in the eyes of the main hall, it’s just a stone of the Ten Commandments. Nothing more, nothing less.”
He scanned Bu Eunseol’s face with a sharp gaze.
“If you leave as you are, with nothing more than the approval of your successor, some of the leaders of the main body may send troops after you.”
Being a candidate to succeed Mr. Ma is a high-stakes position.
He’ll think of the whole thing as a test to see who will be his successor.
“Jadeite was concerned about it, and that’s why she did what she did. Do you understand?”
“I see, and I really appreciate your carelessness.”
“After?”
At that moment, Dan Yuehong’s eyes turned cold.
“Is that all you have to say?”
“…….”
“That child has never begged anyone in his life, never gotten down on his knees.”
His eyes widened as he continued to speak.
“But to help you, I have even knelt before this vice lord who opposes you to the last.”
Dan Yuehong’s eyes gradually took on a murderous edge.
“My lord’s hospitality has allowed you to leave the main hall unharmed, and all you can do is say thank you after the fact?”
Buunsul’s brow twitched slightly.
The favor was returned, and he expressed his sincere gratitude. What more is there to do?
“If so, is there anything else you need me to do?”
This time, Dan Wolhon’s brow twitched.
Even the great masters of the past have bowed their heads in shame, and yet a young disciple of Nangyagak has stuck his neck out?
“I don’t see anything that makes you a candidate to succeed him.”
Danyuehon’s eyes flared red.
The Butler is the equivalent of a Warlord, in charge of all the troops in a battle.
However, the next general manager of the majin, the one who raised the golden jade, Dan Xiao Jade, has knelt down for the sake of a mere mortal…….
That’s a big ego bruise.
“I will teach you what the main hall is like and who this vice lord is at …… and give you my own instruction.”
Ududuk.
Moonhorn reached out with a light touch, and a bone rumbled down the spine of the beast.
You want to use a strong hollow to force the snow to bend at the waist.
“When you show your gratitude to a man of my rank, you must bend at the waist. Do you understand?”
Yikes.
At that moment, a reddish glow began to spread across Bu Eunseol’s entire body.
At the same time, his pupils began to glow with an antipolar blood glow that was redder than blood.
I would have gladly leaned in if you had offered it to me in nice terms.
But when he tried to force himself to bend, he was repulsed.
Danyuehon’s thick eyebrows rose to the sky as the fluffy snow still stiffened.
“By the looks of your attitude…… you mean, you’re not going to bend over backwards?”
“I will not bend.”
“Excuse me?”
“No one can force me to make my own decisions.”
Muddle.
A faint glow emanated from Bu Eunsun’s entire body, pushing back the energy that Dan Yuehong was pouring out.
‘How dare he…….’
Danwolhon, who is secretly Buaga Chimin, has multiplied his air power.
Ududuk.
As the mountains of pressure poured in, the bones in Bu Eunseol’s body crackled and stretched again.
But even so, his head and back remained rigidly erect, his gaze fixed on Danwolhon.
“Withstand the five star force of carelessness?
Danyuehorn’s current level of strength exceeds this.
And yet, isn’t she still standing up for herself?
“Is this guy’s aerodynamic force going to exceed this?
Dan Yuehon’s eyes widened in disbelief.
A place where the most powerful materials are gathered in clouds.
And yet, there is not a single person with this level of tolerance at this age.
“Good. I will let you know that there is a sky above the sky!”
Koooooow.
With the sound of a giant bell ringing, an intense qi spread out from Dan Yuehong’s body.
Mighty. Mumbling.
At the same time, the ground beneath Danwolhon’s feet began to give way, shaking not only the flower garden but the entire pavilion.
The full-body jolt of energy became an engineered whirlwind, tearing flowers and trees from flowerbeds, and a rumbling sound came from the thick wood.
“On your knees!”
Yi Chai’s eyes flashed with a thunderbolt of recognition.
Bu Eunseol’s body glowed red, and she straightened up even more than before.
“That’s ridiculous.
A strange thought flashed through Dan Yuehong’s mind.
Is it true that he has more than three thousand internal balls…… Then, in fact, he is not a young man, but an old master who secretly wears the skin of a young man?
“Father?”
At that moment, a woman walked toward the flower garden of Jeongmagak with a melodious voice. It was Dansook.
At that moment, the pupils of Bingxue and Danyue’s eyes swayed like a ship in a storm.
And at the same time, they squinted and looked at each other.
“……!”
“……!”
Their gazes tangled in the air, their expressions solemn and their eyes narrowed.
And, as promised, it reclaimed the tolerance in a flash.
Shushuk.
With the sound of the winds dying down, the storm dissipated, and the shaking earth was suddenly still.
“…….”
There was an odd silence for a while.
Even in the silence, Bu Eun-sul was dumbfounded, but Dan Yuehong was watching her closely.
“Father.”
“Hmm?”
“Why did you use air power on Bu Xiaoxiao?”
Her constitution prevented her from practicing martial arts, but her discernment and knowledge were as good as any other martial artist.
“…….”
“Father?”
When Dan Yuehong didn’t answer, Dan Xiaoxi asked again.
“Can I ask Mr. Bu why he used air power?”
Instantly, anger filled Dan Yuehong’s mind.
Since childhood, Dansook has maintained a quiet demeanor, rarely showing emotion.
Is this the kind of thing that makes your well-behaved daughter look at you with an axe to grind?
‘Because of this guy……!
And his anger was directed at Bu Eun-sul, not Danso-ok.
When Dan Wolhon glared at her like she was going to kill him, Bu Eunseol was forced to make an excuse.
“Don’t worry, he was just testing his mettle for a moment.”
Then, Dan Yuehong immediately looked at Dan Xiaoxue with a gentle gaze and nodded.
“Yeah, that’s what happened.”
“Testing the air? Why would you want to …….”
“That’s…….”
His eyes, once so majestic, were suddenly unfocused.
“The interest is stronger than expected…….”
He was no more than a housekeeper who could bring a million masters to their knees with a glance, or a daughter’s fool who was speechless in the presence of her daughter’s picking.
“Anyway, you’re great, this guy.”
To rebuild his tattered reputation, Dan Yuehon approached Bu Eunseol and patted her on the shoulder with a friendly expression.
“He’s very good, and he’ll be a great successor to Mazen in the future.”
As I tossed out mindless compliments, Dan Yuehon’s gaze grew increasingly vacant.
On the other hand, Dan Xiaoxi spoke with a twinkle in her eye, full of life.
“Isn’t that right? Even when I was surrounded by hundreds of killers in Yueyang, you stood up for me.”
When she complimented Bu Eunseol, another burst of fire erupted from Dan Wolhon’s eyes.
“You parasitic little bastard, you’ve stolen the soul of Xiao Jade!
