Chapter 309



Um....

I don\'t think there is any intention.

No matter how much I heard, the intention seemed clear.

Namgung Mujin, the head of the Namgung family, has a mistress called Baekdohwa (白桃華), one of the three peaks of the martial arts faction.

She was none other than Namgung Ga-hee, the head of Bonghwangdang.

Of course, I know that she also has a second daughter, Namgoong Hee-yeon, but I understand that she is only 16 years old.

Anyway, that\'s not the point.

If I don\'t make it clear here, I think something annoying will happen.

I sent a message to Namgung Mujin.

[There is a woman with whom I promised to spend the rest of my life.]

[Ah... I see.]

At my words, Namgung Mujin\'s eyes became filled with regret.

Looking at his reaction, I guess he was trying to introduce me to his girlfriend.

-Hey. It\'s nice to have a good seat. Don\'t you hurry up and become a player because you might become a martial arts leader?

okay.

Maybe something like that.

In the case of political factions, such arranged marriages are more prevalent.

In any case, if you don\'t put up a wall like this, they\'ll show more interest, so it\'s better to cut it off.

At that time, Vice Lord Jingyun cleared his throat and said.

“Hmm. “I guess I’ll have to move the location.”

As he said, the ceiling of the conference room in the headquarters building was blown out and the floor and walls were broken, making it difficult to hold a meeting.

So everyone moved to the military department to resume the elders meeting.

Although I have no position in this meeting, I was also given special permission to attend and went along to discuss the Hwanma Dog and other issues.

While moving to the military building, one of the elders spoke.

“I don’t know who it will be, but if Sogeomseon becomes the leader this time, won’t he be the youngest leader since the founding of this alliance?”

He was Eon Kwang-woon, the head of the Jinju Eon family.

Some elders who disapproved of his words still could not hide their displeasure, but other elders were quite interested in how things had turned out.

The Plum Blossom Baekgeom Hoyang Jinin, a long-time member of the Hwasan Sect, also stroked his beard and spoke.

“I guess so. “It is truly something I will live to see for a long time.”

“Whether he becomes the lord or not, the head of the Ikyang So family, who has Sogeomseon as his son, will be proud.”

I snorted inwardly at his words.

Is there any reason for him to be proud?

I wonder if it is Jin Seong-baek, the Heartless Wind God, who is my real father.

Still, I can\'t show off here, so I\'ll have to show a bit of humility.

He took the gun and spoke to them.

“That is an overstatement. I still lack a lot of things. “I hope many seniors will guide me.”

“Hehehe.”

Seeing me like that, the elders who decided to support me looked pleased.

As expected, humility worked best among political factions.

Eon Kwang-woon, the head of the Jinju Eon family, smiled and said to me.

“Is there such a thing as too much praise? Everyone says this out of envy. “I wish I had a son like you.”

Come to think of it, Eon Gwang-woon, the head of the Jinju village, had no sons.

So it seemed like he was even more disappointed.

At that time, Jo Cheong-un, the Hyeongsan Ilgeom of the Hyeongsan Sect, smiled brightly and said.

“If you are so envious, wouldn’t it be okay for Elder Eon to at least send a hawk to the Ikyang cow? Then wouldn’t you be able to get the best son-in-law in the world?”

Cho Cheong-woon said this lightly, fitting the mood.

However, hearing his words, the way some elders looked at me became strange.

It\'s like looking at prey.

“Oh oh. I guess there was a way like that. “At this point, I think I should at least send a hawk to the Ikyang cattle house.”

Even Eon Kwang-woon took this seriously.

Namgung Mu-jin, the matriarch of the Namgung family, was cut off when he lost his luck, but he openly mentions being a hawk.

My head suddenly hurts.

At that time, Dang Woo-jung, the deputy head of Sacheon Danga, quietly intervened.

“Even so, Hyehwa was worried because her marriage was full, so now I think I should send a hawk to Ikyang Soga like Elder Eon. ha ha ha.”

Eon Kwang-woon spoke to his words.

“Didn’t Elder Tang say that he was sending a hawk to the Mo Yong family?”

“Huh. “I thought about it, but when did you say you had a definite answer?”

“iced coffee. Is that so? “I guess I was mistaken.”

Although we were talking with smiling faces, the eyes that were facing each other were not smiling.

It was as if they were silently telling each other to get out of here.

The sight of them blatantly coveting me as their son-in-law was enough to interest some Taoist elders as if it were something to watch.

-Hey. This is completely competitive. What should you do?

I sighed inwardly at Sodamgeom’s words.

They weren\'t even thinking about who they would give the rice cake to, but it was like they were making a fuss among themselves.

If I were to become a leader like this, I was worried that I would be even more blatant.

I have to cut it right here.

“Sun...”

At that time, Namgung Mujin of the Namgung family opened his mouth before me.

“I heard that Sogeomseon has a woman with whom he has promised his future. “I think it would be better for the elders not to mess around for no reason.”

Sodamgeom giggled and whispered at Namgung Mujin’s words.

-It seems like you can\'t eat the rice cake that I can\'t eat.

It doesn\'t matter whether that\'s the intention or not.

Thanks to this, you can naturally fall out of the attention of the elders.

Eon Kwang-woon, the head of the Jinju House, was licking his lips in disappointment, but it was not Dang Woo-jung, the second head of the Sacheon Dang House.

“It has been said since ancient times that a hero has three wives and four concubines. What is the problem with that? “Having multiple wives is not an ordinary thing.”

‘!?\'

It was as if he didn\'t care at all whether I had a fiancé or not.

At his words, Namgung Mujin and Eon Gwangwoon were stroking their respective beards and nodding their heads, as if they were convinced that it made sense.

My head is starting to pound again.

-Don\'t worry about it, but rather reveal that your father-in-law is Wolakgeom. It\'ll all be sorted out.

.........That\'s a really good method.

And you will lose your status as Sogeomseon Sounhee.

Who would have known that as fame grew, such side effects would occur?

I\'ll have to try some other way.

* * *

Around Yujeong-si, when torches are being lit all over the castle.

About two hundred young martial artists were gathering in an auditorium to the north of the Martial Arts League.

These were the leaders and deputy leaders of each faction within the federation.

Everyone was puzzled because they had gathered here after receiving an emergency convocation order from the second elder, Maehwabaekgeom Hoyang Jinin, who managed each party.

The same was true for Namgung Ga-hee, the head of Bonghwangdang, and So Yeong-yeong, the deputy head.

“sister. “There will be an election ceremony for the head of the party tomorrow, so why did they suddenly convene the heads of the party the evening before?”

“well. I do not know either. spirit medium. “I’m just worried about one thing.”

“It could be a problem with your brother, right?”

The reason for their concern was simple.

Even so, I heard that in several parties, he went to Maehwabaekgeom Hoyang Jinin, who is in charge of party management, including the general military, to oppose Sogeomseon So Unhwi\'s candidacy for election as the head of the party.

“Damn things.”

Su Yingying could not hide her irritation.

Deep down, I hoped that my brother would not run for the position of head of the family.

This was because I knew that his identity was a blood demon, the head of a blood religion.

However, when I heard that other party heads were opposing it, I became agitated.

“Why are you opposing it because of your brother? joy!”

“The reason is simple.”

Namgoong Gahee’s gaze turned to several clan leaders.

Lee Jeong-gyeom, head of Cheongnyongdang, the head of Nokhyeondang and former leader of Haebuk Paengga, Peng Ujin, disciple of Baek Hyang-muk, the Infinite First Sword, and Jinyong of Meng Hodang, the grandson of Jingyun, and Sogaju Mo Yongsu of Moyongsega, head of Hwangryongdang.

Among them, Lee Jeong-gyeom was originally the most influential, but the circumstances were unknown.

This is because Lee Jeong-gyeom was released from the league for a while because he was the former leader\'s disciple.

Therefore, it was not known who would become the head of the great clan.

However, in the midst of this, the appearance of Sogeomseon Sounhwi made them all nervous.

While all candidates had a reputation as late-stage exponents, Sogeomseon So Un-hwi had already surpassed the realm of late-term exponents and was standing shoulder to shoulder with the best martial artists.

Even so, many young martial arts people and members of each party admired and respected him, so what would it be like if he ran as a candidate for the head of the party?

“But I don’t think it’s really about falling into someone else’s time.”

“Me too, but if a decision is made from above, there is nothing we can do about it.”

“It seems like they are trying to keep my brother in check. “It’s also the case that we call an emergency meeting like this when my brother is away to visit the headquarters.”

“I think that’s a bit too much. But stay. “Maybe they were summoned because of some other problem.”

Someone interrupted Namgoong Gahee’s words.

“Is that really true?”

She was Mo Yong-hye, the head of Maehyangdang.

They thought they wouldn\'t be able to raise their faces thanks to the humiliation they suffered during the day, but Namgoong Gahee and So Yeongyoung clicked their tongues to see that they still had thick faces.

‘I should have been scolded by Wizzy more.\'

Mo Yong-hye spoke to them casually.

“Isn’t it ridiculous that a person who was a candidate for vice-leader would run for the position of head of the party, which is a position below him? Even judging from above, it doesn’t make sense.”

So Yeong-yeong said sarcastically in response to her words.

“I guess everyone is afraid that if your brother steps forward, the position of head of the family will be taken away.”

“Ho ho ho. What is there to be afraid of? And isn’t it possible to compete only if you can run as a candidate in the first place?”

Mo Yong-hye seemed to be convinced that So Un-hwi had already been excluded as a candidate.

[Young Mae. Don\'t fall for it.]

At this, Su Yingying\'s stomach boiled, but she did not respond any further to Nangong Jiaxi\'s dissuading tone.

There was attention from other heads of families around her, and trying to talk to her further only made her more annoyed.

Then, the second elder, Maehwabaekgeom Hoyang Jinin, came up to the podium in the auditorium.

Everyone was polite to his appearance.

Hoyang Jinin opened his mouth.

“The reason for this emergency convening is to inform the heads of the clans who were ultimately selected as candidates for the leadership of the party and to make public what was not known in advance.”

‘What couldn\'t you tell me in advance?\'

Everyone could not hide their surprise at those words.

What on earth are you trying to announce by saying something like that?

Hoyang Jinin continued speaking.

“There are preparations for tomorrow’s competition and there is nothing to drag on, so I will call the heads of the clans who were finally selected as candidates for the head of the clan. First of all, Lee Jeong-gyeom, the head of Cheongnyongdang.”

“Waaaa!”

Those who supported Lee Jeong-gyeom shouted cheers at his words.

As he was called Lee Shin-seong, he was expelled, but there were still many family heads who followed him.

In fact, Lee Jeong-gyeom was yawning as if he was not very interested.

“The second candidate is Jin Yong, the leader of the Meng Tiger Party.”

“yes!”

Jinyong proudly came forward and took the gun.

As soon as such a team came forward, the heads of the family also cheered.

Although not as many as Lee Jeong-gyeom, there seemed to be quite a few supporters.

“Next is Hwangryongdang’s head Mo Yong-su.”

At the call, Mo Yong-su came forward and took the gun.

Seeing him like that, nearly half of the family heads cheered.

‘under!\'

Contrary to expectations, Jinyong was unable to hide his emotions when he heard the loudest cheers.

Among the clan heads, only Lee Jeong-gyeom was considered a rival, but an unexpected ambush appeared.

When I saw Mo Yong-su\'s triumphant face, my fighting spirit suddenly rose.

“Next is Nokhyeondang’s head, Paeng Woo-jin.”

“Waaah.”

The sound of shouting has diminished enough to be heard.

“........”

At the sound of about three or four people shouting, Peng Wu-jin took control and hurriedly covered his face and came back into the midst of sobs.

Even though only the head and deputy heads were gathered, if support was this low, the election of the head of the party to be held tomorrow would be feared.

Three candidates were called one after another.

A total of six family heads were called, and all of them were looking at Hoyang Jinin with tense faces because of the names that had not been called yet.

‘Please don\'t call me.\'

This was what the majority of candidates were hoping for.

I hope that name will not be called.

Here, the only people who openly wished for that name to be called were Namgung Ga-hee, the head of the Phoenix Party, and So Yeong-yeong, the head of the vice branch.

‘please! please!\'

Just like that, Hoyang Jinin opened his mouth.

“The above six party leaders have been registered as candidates. “I hope there will be good results in the election of the grand party leader tomorrow.”

As soon as he finished speaking, the candidates erupted in joy.

Jinyong and Mo Yongsu didn\'t show it on the outside, but they were satisfied on the inside.

If Sogeomseon steps forward as a candidate, everyone will be at a disadvantage.

“Ah....”

She had some expectations because of the atmosphere, but when her older brother So Un-hwi was not named as a candidate, So Yeong-yeong could not hide her disappointment.

Mo Yong-hye, the head of Maehyangdang, said to her in a dazed mood.

“Look. I said it. “Even above, they don’t think it makes sense.”

“Tch.”

I felt feverish, but with the result, I had nothing to say.

I just had to convince myself of this.

‘that\'s right. It\'s not right for my brother, a blood demon, to be the head of the martial arts league. Then, all information from the Murim Federation will flow to the Blood Cult.\'

That was when I was convincing myself.

Hoyang Jinin continued speaking.

“I haven’t made it public because it’s confidential, but I have something to tell the heads of the clan and vice-lords here.”

Jinyong asked as if he were the representative.

“What is that?”

“Before the election of the Great Leader tomorrow, there will be a match to determine the leader of the Murim Alliance.”

-Roaring!

“Are we finally deciding on a new leader?”

“That was the day of the election of the head of the party.”

Everyone could not hide their surprise at those words.

Now that I think about it, I thought the election of a new leader would soon be discussed, but I had no idea that it would happen at the same time as the election of the grand leader.

At this, Jinyong felt elated and backed away.

Although he did not hear the details, he was confident that the most likely candidate for this election was his grandfather, Yeolwangpaedo Jingyun.

Mo Yongsu raised his hand and asked.

“You said it was not an election but a decision-making battle. What do you mean? Are you saying that the leadership candidates are competing against each other?”

“what? “Compete?”

Jinyong blurted out his true feelings without realizing it.

Naturally, he thought that his grandfather Jin-gyun, the vice-major, would be promoted to the position of matriarch.

However, as Mo Yong-su said, a deciding match means competing.

“That’s right. As you said, Chairman Mo Yong-su, the position of leader will be decided by the competition between candidates.”

“Is that why you called Baek Dae-hyeop, the former leader?”

“I see.”

At those words, the murmur grew louder.

Even so, everyone knew that Baek Hyang-mook, the former leader of the Infinite First Sword, had come to Infinite City.

However, the reason was not revealed, so the secret was revealed to people who were curious.

“under! “How could this happen?”

“It’s absolutely amazing. “How did you hide this fact?”

“Then you can see two of the six great masters competing.”

The place became noisy.

We got to see a battle between rare tax-saving experts, going beyond simply being elected.

As a result, interest in who would win naturally arose.

“Is the former leader returning?”

“But is it okay to call someone who has touched the Blood Demon’s martial arts like this?”

“But there is no better time for the original leader than during the time of the previous leader.”

“Well, he is like that too. “The former leader also cut off the head of the previous blood demon.”

Jinyong secretly felt bad for the reactions of some of the deputy heads of the clan.

‘under. These.\'

Just looking at their reactions, they were talking as if the winner of this battle had already been decided.

He himself knows that the former leader is an absolute expert beyond the realm of superhumans, but isn\'t it something you wouldn\'t know without competing with experts of that level?

At that time, Lee Jeong-gyeom, who had been quiet, raised his hand and opened his mouth.

“Are there really two candidates?”

Everyone\'s eyes turned to him at his words.

Jinyong snorted and said.

“So, are you saying there is someone else who could be a candidate? The Heartless Wind God, the lord of the peerless castle? Of course it can\'t be like that. Or a wandering nightclub? A king who is no different from neutrality? “There is no one worthy of coming...”

At that moment, Jinyong’s eyes widened.

Someone\'s name flashed through his mind.

It was the same for others.

There was another superhuman who appeared during this period.

Jinyong asked in a trembling voice.

“Hoyang Jinin... isn’t it? Still, the candidate for the leader position is someone with a certain level of experience...”

“That’s right.”

“yes?”

“Sogeomseon is also a candidate for this leader position.”

‘!!!\'

As soon as those words were out, the audience was in an uproar.

No one thought of Sogeomseon Sowoon-hwi as a leader candidate.

There has never been a case since its founding where a person who just passed the terms and conditions became the leader of the martial arts league.

‘You damned brother!\'

Su Yingying was dumbfounded.

I hated that I had kept such an important fact from myself.

However, seeing the face of Mo Yong-hye, the head of Maehyangdang, looking at him with astonishment, he felt relieved.

Or should I say it’s refreshing.

Namgung Ga-hee was surprised and sent a message to her in a fuss.

[So Daehyup is a leader candidate? spirit medium. Did you know?]

[I didn\'t know. I should have recognized that person later, but how did he think to hide this... Wait a minute.]

Su Yingying\'s face turned pale for a moment.

Aside from hiding it, this was the first time in my life that such an absurd situation had happened.

‘...This is a human blood demon.\'
