Absolute Sword Sense

[Episode 99: Youngest leader candidate (5)]

“Hwanma poison?”

Everyone in the conference room could not hide their surprise and puzzlement at my words. In particular, the embarrassment on some of the elders' faces was clearly evident.

Master Li Sima Zhongxian, who was standing up, shouted at me.

“What on earth do you mean? “Illusion poison?”

Of course it's German, something I've never heard of before.

It is a special poison created with great effort by Gu Guyang, the blood demon king under Jin Sangje.

I said, showing everyone the needles lying on the cloth.

“Hwanma poison is the poison applied to this needle. “It has a strong effect on a person’s brain, disrupting their cognitive abilities and causing them to manipulate others.”

Hearing my words, one of the elders opened his mouth.

“Do you mean to say that the Commander-in-Chief was truly affected by that poison?

It was Namgung Mujin, the head of the Namgung family.

To his question, Si-ryeon-geom, who took over the body of Commander-in-Chief Bang Deok-hyeon, answered on his behalf.

“It may be hard to believe, but it’s true. I feel sorry for the various elders.

The elders whispered that they could not believe it.

“Is there such a poison?

“How could something like that happen....

It would be hard to believe that not someone else but the general military of the Wulin Federation was manipulated by poison.

Then someone said:

He was the Plum Blossom Baekgeom Hoyang Jinin, the second elder of the Martial Arts League and the leader of the Hwasan Sect.

“Can you confirm whether it was really poison? “Nobu has been in the martial arts forest for a long time, but this is the first time I’ve heard of such poison.”

Several elders also nodded in agreement with his words.

Like Hoyang Jinin of the Plum White Sword, they were the supporters of Baek Hyang-muk, the former leader of the Infinite First Sword.

“Is it possible?”

Knowing this, I took the needle with this magic poison buried in it.

Coincidentally, Dang Woo-jung, the deputy head of the Dang family, was here, and there was nothing he couldn't prove.

He must have been thinking the same thing as me, so he stood up and spoke.

“I will check it myself.

“Amitabha Buddha. “Please wait a moment.”

At that time, someone stood up and urged him.

A nun who appeared to be in her mid-fifties, she was Amipa's clove situation.

“Vice leader and several elders. Are you going to listen to what Sogeomseon says right now? And this position is with the elders.....”

“Stop it. Clove incident. “What Sogeomseon is saying now goes beyond such legal issues.”

“Elder Kwak!”

Her words like this were cut off by Kwak Hyeong-jik of Northern Yeongdoseong.

They responded well when appropriate.

-Why is that nun making such a fuss?

Of course it will be uproar.

Even so, the current leaders of the Murim Alliance were having their trust tested by numerous factions of the Jeongdo Murim faction as they suffered a crushing defeat in the recent war against the blood religion.

Meanwhile, if a rumor spreads that Bang Deok-hyeon, the head and backbone of the martial arts league, was poisoned and manipulated, that trust would be further eroded.

At that time, a grizzled old man stood up and reprimanded Gwak Hyeong-jik of Beukyeongdoseong.

“Elder Kwak. As the Jeonghyang incident said, this is a meeting that only the elders and the military department can attend. “How can there be a law if you are going to ignore it?”

He was Jeong Yang Jin-in, a long-time scholar of the communal faction.

Although Jo Seong-won, the ark of the current openness, is to some extent a member of the current elders' faction, I never thought he would reveal it so blatantly.

As with the Jeonghyang incident, his vice leader, Yeolwangpae, is also a supporter of Jingyun.

He's desperate to get me out somehow.

“Please stop. Jeongyang Jinin. Even if laws and regulations are important, if the Commander-in-Chief was really poisoned as Priest So said, wouldn’t we be fighting like this?”

Someone else came forward to protect me.

He was Jo Cheong-un, the Hyeongsan Ilgeom of the Hyeongsan faction.

It seems that Ikyang Soga supports him in his decision to become a death priest.

Of course, his upright nature may have played a role.

“Priest, is it really true that the poison of Sogeomseon was manipulating Master Bang Deok-hyeon of the General Military?”

“Didn’t you listen to what Master Fang Deok-hyeon said? “The master was manipulated by this needle and put the martial arts league in crisis.”

As I said that, I heard someone's voice in full voice.

[What are you doing! Brother So.]

He was Sima Zhongxian, Commander Li.

He was the one who told me that Commander-in-Chief Bang Deok-hyeon was a member of an unidentified organization.

For him to press me like this is probably to scold me for making the situation worse.

[Isn’t it the same soldier who told us that Bang Deok-hyeon was a Ganja? But how can they cause confusion at such an important event?]

It was as expected.

If I continue to push in this position, the vice-leader and his position will be at a disadvantage.

If you did not notice any abnormalities in the actions of Commander-in-Chief Bang Deok-hyeon, it would be an admission of incompetence, and it would be even more problematic if you pretended not to notice even though you knew.

[Stop it. [If you step down, the next soldier...]

Before he could finish his words, I took the gun on Commander Lee Sima Zhongxian and said,

“The person who found out all of this is Mr. Lee.”

‘!?'

Sima Zhongxian was dumbfounded by my sudden words.

I guess they didn't expect me to come out like this.

Plum Blossom Sword Hoyang Jinin asked in confusion.

“What does that mean? “Military Lee figured it out?”

“It’s just like I said. “The reason I disappeared for seven months was to find out the organization that was hiding behind the scenes and trying to secretly control the Murim League at the request of Mr. Lee.”

‘!?'

The conference room was agitated by my words.

Master Li Sima Zhongxian looked at me with an expression of bewilderment, perhaps speechless, and then quickly looked at the vice leader, Yeowangpaedo Jingyun, at the head table.

Gyun Gyun’s expression became scary and stiff.

Seeing that Master Li Sima Zhongxian's neck was trembling, it seemed like he was trying hard to explain in full voice.

-Your hair is really cool.

Sodamgeom stuck out his tongue and laughed.

In an instant, with three strokes of tongue, Li military commander Sima Zhongxian and I became allies.

So, from the point of view of the vice leader Jingyun, his anger will rise as well as his doubts.

I didn't mind this and continued talking.

“People here probably know the existence of the man with the golden eyes.”

“Golden eyes!”

Everyone's attention was focused on my words.

As the late general Zhuge Yuanming said, the leaders of the Wulin League knew of the existence of Jin Sang-je, who was harming the next generation of the faction.

At that time, Eon Gwang-woon, the head of the Jinju family, asked me.

“So this has something to do with the man with golden eyes?”

“That's right.”

“If you do it, it’s a blood religion.....”

“It’s not a blood religion.”

As expected, they have not yet come any closer to the truth.

I can't believe that there is a connection between blood religion and Geumsangje.

I need to get it right here.

“From what I found out, the entity with the golden eye has been trying to control this martial arts group from behind for a very long time.”

“What on earth does that mean?”

“It is exactly as you heard. He didn't just harm the experts. “He has caused confusion by planting his people in numerous martial arts organizations, including the martial arts league.”

The elders' murmur grew louder at my words.

It was a natural reaction since this had never been mentioned in an official capacity.

At that time, a tall-looking middle-aged man said to me.

“Sword ship. “I have heard of your reputation, but whether what you say now is true or not, it could easily confuse the community.”

He was none other than Mo Yong Woong-gyeong, the head of the Mo Yong family.

He also said that he was a faction that supported Vice Lord Gyun Gyun, so that was understandable.

“That’s right. Even if you investigated it at the request of Sima Commander, wouldn't it be an absurd story?

Hwang Bo-jong, the head of the Hwang Bo-sega, helped him.

“What is absurd?”

“Sword ship. If what you say is true, it means that the main branch is being manipulated by an organization that is hiding behind the scenes and working secretly...”

I cut off his words with a chuckle.

“Aren’t you actually being swayed?”

“what?”

Hwang Bo-jong could not hide his displeasure at my mocking voice.

Jeongyang Jinin, a member of the communal faction, intervened.

“Look. Sogeomseon. “This is going too far.”

“Is there anything that can be overlooked? “The general, who can be said to be the head of the Wulin League, was brainwashed by such an organization. Didn’t anyone except Sima Commander over there know that?”

“you!”

Jeongyang Jinin’s face turned red at my words.

If the position wasn't like this, he was going to hit me right away.

But you won't be able to make such a fuss.

At least he is one of the eight great masters. Now that Mu Sang-do Jeong Cheon and Taegeuk Sword Master Jong-seon Jin-in are dead, he should be called the six great masters.

In any case, you know very well the capabilities of the six great masters who have reached the realm of superhumans, so if you don't want to be embarrassed, you can't attack them carelessly.

Of course, it wasn't just one person.

-Gooooooo!

With the breathtaking momentum rising, everyone's eyes turned to the vice leader Jingyun, who was sitting at the head of the table.

He is sitting at the table with his hands folded, and it looks like he is trying to control his anger as much as possible.

“Vice-lord...”

It seemed as if Sima Zhongxian, the commander of the army, was trying to dissuade him, but Vice-lord Jingyun raised his hand and signaled that he should not proceed.

Jinkyun looked at me with sharp eyes and said.

“Brother So. No, Sogeomseon.”

“Please speak.”

“The vice-commander already knew about the abnormal signs of the general military.”

Hearing his words, some elders looked at him with puzzled faces.

Jingyun continued speaking.

“But the reason I pretended not to know about it was to bring out the person behind General Military Commander Bang Deok-hyeon. “But you ruined it.”

I clicked my tongue at his words.

Only half a year after joining the Murim Federation, he became a politician.

With these words, he shifted all responsibility to me.

Some elders admired him and supported him.

“indeed!”

“I guess the vice-lord knew this.”

“Somehow, I understand why the vice-lord remained silent.”

What is the point of remaining silent?

He couldn't help but feel angry because he thought that Prince Sima Zhongxian had stabbed him in the back.

Well, actually, the reason I couldn't really touch Bang Deok-hyeon was because I couldn't find a definitive reason.

Moreover, some of the elders were supporting him.

I didn't show it and said it as if I was surprised.

“iced coffee. “I didn’t know that the vice-lord had such a plan.”

Vice leader Jingyun seemed to have gained momentum at my words and spoke in a low tone as if admonishing me.

“But you messed it all up. Because of you, there is no longer any way to know what is behind it. “How can I take responsibility for this?”

The elders supporting him nodded in agreement.

Very energetic.

I said as if I didn't understand.

“Why am I responsible?”

Vice leader Jingyun raised his voice at me as if he was shocked by my words.

“Don’t you know what you’ve done?”

“Didn’t you prevent the Martial Alliance from falling into further chaos?”

“I’m thinking of having a game with the vice-lord I just saw!”

“It’s not funny.”

“what?”

“I understand that it was the dead leader and the brainwashed master of the military, Bang Deok-hyeon, who pushed for the subjugation war, claiming that the religion had become vulnerable. How many people were sacrificed as a result?”

‘!?'

Those words left Vice Lord Gyun Gyun speechless.

To refute what I said, many political faction members actually lost their lives in this war.

At that time, Master Li Sima Zhongxian came forward and spoke to me.

“Look! The vice-lord was against this war. Don’t the elders here know this? The Vice Lord insisted that rather than incur more sacrifices, it was necessary to catch Jeolsim, the evil beast that killed Jongseon Jinin. Thanks to that, we were able to preserve the martial arts alliance’s power to this extent.”

In response to his words, the elders who support Jin Gyun unanimously urged me.

“You’re just passing by without knowing anything.”

“Do you know how your vice-lord was feeling at that time?”

I guess I really want to ask about this situation.

Otherwise, the position of the vice-lord and themselves will be shaken.

At this, I snorted and said,

“That’s too bad. “Then, if you had revealed the abnormal signs of the general military and opposed it, more political faction members could have been saved.”

“......That is....”

Sima Zhongxian, Master Li, was left speechless by my words that hit the nail on the head.

If you refute it here, it will be revealed that it is meant to resolve factions that do not share the same views as you, so can you say it easily?

I said, shaking my head.

“Or, if Master Bang Deok-hyeon had noticed that he was poisoned, he could have prevented it. But seeing as I couldn’t do that, it seems like I didn’t really know that.”

Jinkyun’s face turned red at my words.

Judging from the veins on his forehead, it seemed as if his anger had reached its peak.

Accordingly, the Amifa clove incident struck me.

“Amitabha Buddha. Sogeomseon’s offering is truly rude. All of the elders here, including the vice leader, have sacrificed themselves for decades for the sake of justice for the political faction. But even if you insult me like this in front of those people, can you really say that you are qualified to be the leader of this alliance?”

“Hmm! What the Jeonghyang incident said is correct. “If you recognize a person like this as a leader candidate when he is running wild without any respect for his seniors...” Hwang Bo-jong, the

head of the Hwangbo family, helped her.

It fits very well.

Hwang Bo-jong was a faction that supported General Military Commander Bang Deok-hyeon and hoped for the return of former leader Baek Hyang-mook of the Infinite First Sword.

The reason he helped the opposing faction was probably because he saw me as a threat.

If I continue to argue here, their position will be in danger.

I said with a grin.

“Total military adult.”

Bang Deok-hyeon, the commander-in-chief possessed by Si-ryeon-geom, answered my call.

“Why is that?”

“Did you say that today’s meeting is a meeting to agree on a plan that will prevent you from registering as a leader candidate without the recommendation of the elders?”

At this question, the expressions of some elders hardened.

They were elders who accepted General Commander Bang Deok-hyeon's proposal.

The same was true for Hwang Bo-jong, the head of the Hwang Bo family.

The faction that supports the vice leader will also have nothing to say.

He must have been planning to accept this offer as if he couldn't win.

Bang Deok-hyeon, the commander-in-chief under the control of Si-ryeon-geom, opened his mouth to answer my question.

“It’s embarrassing, but it’s true...”

At that time, Peng Yong-Yong, the head of the Hebei Peng family, intervened.

“Stop it. You are determined to throw the main village into chaos. Even if all your claims are correct, what can we do if we are torn asunder in the face of a huge enemy called a blood religion?”

I sighed and laughed at his words.

“I heard that Elder Pang also agreed to make it impossible for me to register as a candidate.”

These words seemed to offend Paeng Yong-sa, so he could not bear to open his mouth.

There are few who can speak confidently here.

I spoke to the elders, holding my hand.

“I cannot help but admire the many elders who do not face reality and come together to support the leader candidates they each support, even when faced with such a serious problem of the martial arts alliance being poisoned and manipulated by the phantom poison.

The expressions on the elders' faces changed as I heard these words that hit their bones.

Still, seeing that some elders, such as Hoyang Jin-in of the Hwasan faction, Namgung Mujin of the Namgung family, Eon Kwang-woon, the head of the Jinju clan, and Yangmyeong incident of the Hangsan faction, and Dang Woo-jung of the Sacheon Tangmun, are sighing as if they are ashamed, it seems that not all of them are the rice of those vegetables.

It seems that there are no true political faction members.

“The editorial was long. I hope that the newly elected leader will be able to face the blood demon, and I will put an end to this attrition.”

After throwing a sharp punch, I turned around.

Then someone called me and stopped me.

“Stop.”

He was none other than Vice Lord Yeolwangpaedo Jingyun.

Jingyun, with a scary expression on his face, stood up and opened his mouth.

“What does that mean now?”

To this, I answered slowly without turning.

“It’s just as you heard.”

“Like what you heard? under!”

At that moment, there was a loud roar from behind.

-bang!

When I turned my head back, I saw that the table in the conference room had been smashed and had fallen.

Everyone was unable to open their mouths due to the tremendous force emanating from Vice Lord Gyun Gyun.

The air in the room will feel heavy as those who have reached the realm of superhumanity radiate their energy without controlling it.

He stepped on the broken table and walked in a straight line.

“You’ve become a lot more arrogant while we haven’t seen each other. “Nobu misunderstood you.”

In response to his words, I raised my hand and spoke politely.

“I apologize if you were offended by my junior’s words. However, I am also very disappointed in my senior whom I haven’t seen in a long time.”

After hearing those words, strong speculation emanated from Jingyun.

Due to the direct speculation, the entire conference hall was subject to wind pressure.

Jingyun spoke as if everyone could hear.

“There’s no need to go long. “Let’s decide who will be the leader candidate here.”

“Vice-lord!”

“conflict!”

-Chrrrrrr!

“Tsk!”

Sima Zhongxian, a military commander, tried to dissuade him, but was pushed back by strong force.

Everyone seemed to think that no one could stop the fungus at this level, so they each got up from their chairs and stepped back.

Jingyun walked towards me and spoke in a murderous voice.

“There is nothing that appears to indicate that the match was abbreviated and resulted in a draw. “Don’t regret that your arrogance brought misfortune.”

I answered him without loosening my grip.

“senior. “I hope it ends at this level.”

“It’s already too late to regret it. It will be different than before!”

-Pot!

Vice leader Jingyun along with Ilgal threw a new weapon at me.

His rain, rushing in at an incredible speed, had the power to cut me in half at once.

“Whoa.”

I sighed.

He then untied his gun and put one hand behind his back.

cheeky!

Seeing me like that, Jingyun, who was rushing towards me, seemed to be even more enraged and even became angry at me.

I caught the essence of the fungus that had been narrowed down so quickly.

-Quaaaaaang!

The wall near the left side where the hand was grabbed was completely blown away by the aftereffects of the aerial power contained in Jingyun's rainwater.

However, his hand was still held by me.

At this, Jinkyun spoke to me with his eyes becoming somewhat serious.

“It’s pretty...huh!?”

-Knock knock knock!

Before he could finish his words, his wrist that was being held by me was twisted.

His pride was so strong that he didn't even groan, but his pupils were so big that they seemed like they were about to explode.

“You... how powerful are you...”

I said in a whisper to him who was surprised.

“I definitely said let’s stop.”

“what?”

I released my left hand from behind my back and lifted it up.

Then, while he was pulling up with his Chilseong energy, he hit Jingyun's head with his palm.

Jinkyun urgently raised his left arm, but

-Paaaaaang!

100 million!”

With a deathly scream, the new form of Jingyun dug into the floor.

-Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa!

There was a continuous crashing sound from below.

I think it probably fell to the first floor of the headquarters building.

When I turned my head and looked at where the elders were, they were so shocked that they couldn't take their eyes off me with a dumbfounded look on their faces.
