Login Murim Episode 940
At a time when the ger on the grassland was shivering in the cool night breeze laden with sand dust, the people behind the huge castle wall erected 10,000 miles away were greeting the morning.
It was still too early for the sun to rise, in the deep darkness surrounding us on all sides.
A rough horseshoe conch that wakes up the deep night.
As many as a hundred messengers passed through the seven gates without any formalities, and the dozens of messengers sent earlier disappeared like the wind toward their respective destinations.
And the person who gave all these orders was listening to the reports arriving one after another with a pale expression on his face.
“All the messengers have just passed through the Seven Gates!”
“I have issued a solemn imperial command to the ministers belonging to the six departments!”
“Dochalwon (都察院) awaits Your Majesty’s orders!”
“The officials of the Academy and Tongjeongsa are preparing an imperial edict!”
“Here’s a report from the five provincial governors! In obedience to the order of King Feha, we immediately dispatched 300 warships, 100,000 naval forces, and the Geumwi army…”
“stop.”
At the emperor’s sudden words, all the surrounding noise disappeared as if washed away.
The authority of the Emperor is absolute.
Although it was the history of a great nation that had only entered its third generation, the power of the current emperor could be said to be comparable to or greater than that of King Taejo, who unified the world.
“It’s a commotion.”
In the emperor’s low-pitched tone, everyone bowed down and prostrated themselves, unable to even breathe properly.
“Here comes the Emperor, Your Majesty!”
“Please kill me!” Sreuk.
The emperor slightly shook his head and flapped his long sleeves without saying a word.
As the people who read the unspoken command took a cautious step back and disappeared, only two people were left in the vast Daejeon.
“If you say anything, they make a fuss and ask you to kill them. “If Jim had heard more things like that, he might have bitten his tongue.” Seeing the emperor smiling bitterly, Commander Baek Yeon opened his mouth with a stern expression.
“No matter how much of a joke you are, don’t say that.”
“It’s a joke anyway, so what’s the point? Moreover
The emperor continued speaking, leaning diagonally on the throne.
“I have no intention of dying in these circumstances.”
Although his complexion was still pale, his eyes were shining like a ghost as he faced a new crisis.
It’s more than what I said. “I never thought I could move so quickly.”
Baekyeon fully agreed with the emperor’s words. Amcheon (暗天).
The group of traitors with an ominous name was larger than expected and were even more meticulous.
In the past, when he served the Emperor, more than any religious force that rose like wildfire from the far-off western lands.
“It was about fifty years ago. “Those called the Demonic Cult are heading to the central plains.”
“The Great Demon War.”
The emperor muttered to himself and stroked his gray beard.
Although it was long before he was even born, the fact that hundreds of thousands of pseudo-believers had set foot in the central plains was an event so enormous that no one knew about it.
This is especially true in the sense that they were not just villagers who were captivated by nice words, but were troops armed with strong faith and swords.
“As the power of the Demonic Cult soared through the sky, the Wulin people belonging to the Jeong Sect offered a prayer to the late Emperor Feha. “They are foreign enemies who are disrupting the order of the great nation, so the request was to raise the imperial army and order them to subdue them.” “I know.”
The emperor added, staring at the white lotus. “You, Baekyeon, are the ones who most strongly opposed the participation in the war.”
Baekyeon nodded slightly in agreement.
That was undoubtedly true.
At this very spot, the high officials of the royal court exchanged fierce arguments for several days, and the emperor, who was seriously considering a subjugation order, was forced to give up his intentions by Baek Yeon’s earnest appearance that he had never seen before.
“Do you have any idea why the Major General was so opposed to it?”
“I think there are two main reasons. The first of these is because the Demonic Cult was afraid of the power of the great nation and did not harm the people, and the second is… “Chang Gong0臟公)It must have been because of him.”
“you’re right. Unlike me, Changgong insisted on taking the lead in defeating foreign enemies more than anyone else.”
“It was the right choice. “If Abamima had given the firmament’s hand at that time, the great nation would also have had to shed a lot of blood.”
“It was clear that the intention was to worsen the power of the imperial family. That’s why I had no choice but to oppose it even more.”
Throughout history, there is no victory without scars.
Baekyeon, who was a general who led an army before being a single warrior, knew that fact and did his best to prevent the great country from entering the war.
firmament. No, Dongcheon Demon was already a person of interest by that time.
Of course, many Murim members of the right faction were sacrificed due to his opposition, but Baekyeon did not regret it at all.
He simply made a choice for the emperor, the country, and the people.
It was not too late to intervene while watching the two rocks, the Murimmaeng and the Demonic Bridge, clashing fiercely against each other.
And the result of that waiting was the victory of the political factions, which was close to mutual destruction.
“At that time, the warden hoped that the Demonic Cult would win.”
The emperor clicked his tongue after hearing Baekyeon’s words. “You are being too honest today.” “It is an unavoidable fact. “Many of the martial arts people who belong to the political sect have gained the trust of the people, so there is no justification for subjugating them. However, if it is the Demonic Cult that has survived, it is a different story.”
Large rocks are difficult to even move.
However, if it is a stone left after being broken and hit countless times.
And if that rock was sharp enough to harm the people, Baekyeon would have picked up a hammer and smashed it without a moment of hesitation.
He would have completely torn down the fence of outlaws called martial arts.
“But, if things had gone as you said, we wouldn’t have gotten to where we are today.”
The emperor’s soft voice rang throughout the great hall.
right. Although it is a truly contradictory statement, it was with the help of the martial people that the traitors were defeated and the great work was accomplished.
And… it was time to correct that contradiction.
“I intend to help with all my might. “For them, no, for all of us.”
thud.
Baekyeon got down on one knee and bowed her head.
Soon, there will be a bloody storm that cannot be compared to the time of the Great War.
Dark Heaven was more powerful than the Demonic Cult and was incomparably dangerous.

A war that would overturn the world was beginning, and it was not just limited to the martial arts world.
“I humbly ask Your Majesty, the Emperor, the ruler of the world, to give orders to God.”
The information received from Jin Tae-gyeong late at night was an unexpected misfortune, but it was fortunate among misfortunes that he had completed thorough preparations to complete the great task.
A fleet of hundreds of ships and thousands of generals.
And hundreds of thousands of troops waving the imperial flag were waiting for orders.
“I give this order to Baekyeon, Commander of the Geumuiui Committee.”
With a stern voice, the emperor slowly raised his sick body.
He crossed Daejeon with unstoppable steps, wearing heavy armor rather than a pure white acupuncture gown with a dragon engraved with golden thread.
Clap, clap.
One step after another.
The emperor, who came down from the throne, lifted Baekyeon up with his own hands and opened his mouth.
“Tell the entire army about my true identity.”
“······I”
Baekyeon’s eyes, unable to hide her agitation, trembled for a moment.
This is not just because of the influence of the emperor’s personal government. This was because he could feel the determination of the emperor, who did not have much time left to live.
“your majesty”
“your majesty”
However, the voice that Baekyeon managed to squeeze out could not continue to the end.
When the loyal subjects saw the emperor shaking his head in silence, they felt frustrated and had no choice but to grit their teeth.
“God, the commander of the Geumuiwiui Baekyeon… I will obey the command of the Majesty the Emperor.”
Instead of answering, the emperor smiled faintly and walked past Baek Yeon.
The world seen outside the wide open iron door was still shrouded in deep darkness.
As if his future was not far away.
‘Still, this isn’t bad either.’
Although his body was dying, his mind was clearer than ever.
This will be my first and last time with my parents.
Facing death on the battlefield rather than in bed would be a blessing, not a tragedy.
I was also able to regain my will to live, even if only for a moment, thanks to someone.
“Come on, Baekyeon.”
The emperor continued speaking with a bright smile that made it hard to believe that he was dying.
“Shouldn’t we please accept the shameless robber who left first without being able to keep the promise he made to me?”
Sijin Han.
It was the time it took from the moment I first got my hands on it to now.
“Everything is ready.”
As Hyuk Mu-jin’s report flowed into my ears, I opened my eyes that had been quietly closed.
The guy’s unusually deep-set eyes and expression seemed to explain how urgent the current situation was.
“let’s go.”
Beyond that, what more needs to be said?
With a brief answer, I stepped out of the pavilion and moved as if possessed by something. Even though I already had a lucky break once.
My mind was just dizzy.
‘Full moon.’
Just 15 days.
That was the time left until the Chongyang Festival. No, maybe it’s shorter than that.
In the war record kept by the Dongcheon Demon Army, it was written that the main force of Amcheon invaded Shanxi Province through the northern grasslands before Chongyang Festival.
‘Maybe ten days. No, it might be tomorrow.’
I tried to swallow the moan that was about to escape.
It’s more than urgent, it’s urgent.
The distance from Zhejiang Province, where the imperial capital is located, to Shanxi Province is a whopping 10,000 miles.
No matter how quickly the royal family moves, the distance is bound to take at least ten days.
‘Will I be able to arrive on time?’
Even as I left the imperial palace with everyone, the doubts in my heart weighed heavily on my heart.
Until Jeokcheongang, who had been staring at me like that, suddenly opened his mouth.
“Has it been about fifty years? “There was a time when we got into a big fight with that guy, King Byeokryeok, over a trivial dispute.”
As if he was talking to himself, Jeokcheongang, slightly avoiding my gaze, continued.
“I usually looked down on him, so I didn’t have the heart to look down on him, but when I actually tried my hand at him, he turned out to be quite strong. “I didn’t show it, but it was quite surprising.”
Gungseong, who had been moving forward silently while holding the reins, received a horse.
“He is a strong man. If it weren’t for you, he would have been the best among the Ten Kings.”
“hmm. “I guess it was like that, right?”
Jeokcheongang shook his head, glanced at me and added,
“Well, I guess the Hebei Paeng family is the fifth generation for no reason. With that level of power, he can easily win against anyone. “We have enough information to look into the situation in Hebei as well as Shanxi.”
Then I suddenly felt like I knew.
The fact that this unexpected conversation was all meant to reassure me. ‘her.’
What should I say? I’m just grateful.
That was the moment when I swallowed the laughter that was about to escape me without realizing it.
“So, were you planning on leaving like this without saying goodbye?”
The emperor, who was waiting for me in front of the huge iron gate, laughed out loud in a sly voice that did not suit me at all.
