Jin Sa-hong looked at the person sitting in front of him with a slightly displeased expression. He had come here to greet Byeok Tae-san, and not long after he came, another guest came in. 

However, the problem was that the guest was Jeok Gyeolmyeong from Heukryeon. Jeok Gyeol-myung was the leader of one of Heukryeon’s warriors. In many ways, he was a competitor to Jin Sa-hong. And so, he was not happy with this situation of waiting for Byeoktaesan with Jeokgyolmyeong. 

It was the same with the proper name. As soon as he entered the reception room, he had already begun to frown, and up until now, that hadn’t died down. He waited like that for a while, up until the waiting room door opened again. He looked up to see Byeok Tae-san had finally arrived, and two familiar people had come in with him.

They were Nam Gung-jun and Zhuge Gwan. In the end, even those who came to Wuhan from the Namgung Sega and Zhuge Sega had come. In fact, Namgung Sega and Zhuge Sega had been dipping their toes within the Moorimmeng. This was because talented people from each generation ended up being active in the Moorim League. 

However, it was not easy for one to say that they belonged in the Moorim League. Unlike other samurai, Nam Goong Sega and Zhuge Sega had built up enough power to dominate the area with their respective powers. 

A direct comparison with the Moorimmaeng or Heukryeon was not enough, but despite that, the strength it had was enough to exceed that of Ho Muryun. 

In Moorim, there were five samurai who had built up their strength to such a degree that the strength of a single clan could outweigh a great alliance. It was often called the Five Generations, and among them, Nam Gung and Zhuge Sega were the strongest. In fact, the other three fell far short of the both of them. 

Anyway, Nam Gung-jun and Zhuge Gwan, who entered the waiting room, greeted the two with their eyes shining.

“In the end, seeing you here would be inevitable. It’s nice to meet you.” 

“It was a little late for us to arrive in Wuhan, and we were so busy that we couldn’t even visit him.” 

Jin Sa-hong and Jeok-gyeol-myung greeted each other with their responses. 

“I should have moved first when I heard the news that the two of you were going to Wuhan, but I’m embarrassed to say that I couldn’t. As you know, there are some incidents…”

“I thought I was going to have to say hello sooner or later. But it’s nice to see you.” 

Nam Gung-jun and Zhuge Gwan bowed their heads slightly and sat down in a suitable place. There was nothing to say between them. A piercing silence settled in the waiting room. 

However, no one tried to break this silence. Each of them was contemplating what to say to Byeok Tae-san, whom they would meet today. Before coming here, no, when he had been trying to advance to the infinite, he had already done quite a bit of research on Byeok Tae-san. 

The reason was Ho Mu-ryun’s infinite advance, but it was immediately known before the investigation began that the reason for Ho Mu-ryun’s advance to Wuhan was Tae-san. And the more he researched, the more his admiration, curiosity, and curiosity about Byeok Tae-san grew. 

“By the way… I think I’ve been waiting too long… … .” Jeok Gyeol-myeong frowned slightly as he muttered this. 

Jin Sa-hong waited longer than that, but as he was from Heuk-ryeon, he lacked the needed patience. Of course, the rest of the people didn’t like the current situation as well. 

“I don’t know when it might come, but it’s hard work to stay silent like this all the time.” Jeok Gyeol-myung said this as he looked around the other three. It was Zhuge Gwan who accepted his words. 

“Is there anything you would like to say?” 

“When I came in earlier, Sibi, who guided the two of them, was quite beautiful.” 

Zhuge Gwan and Nam Gung-jun swore a little inwardly. They were careful with their words in case someone was from Heukryeon, but it wasn’t wrong. This was because Sibi, who guided the two of them, looked really amazing. 

As the two of them nodded lightly, Jeok Gyeol-myeong smiled and continued. “The fight that guided me earlier was also really amazing. To be honest, she was more beautiful than any woman I’ve ever seen. Didn’t you two do that?” 

Jin Sa-hong had made quite an impression on Jeok Gyeol-myeong’s blatant remarks. However, Zhuge Gwan accepted the words without blinking an eye. 

“The quarrels of Confucius are rumored to be beautiful. Besides, it is said that there are not just one or two, but ten.” 

Jeok Gyeol-myeong’s eyes widened. “Ten? You mean all ten of them are such beauties?” 

“I do. Of course, but it’s just a rumor, so I don’t know if it’s actually true.” 

Jeok Gyeol-myeong looked at Zhuge Gwan with a subtle gaze. 

“Zhuge Gwan seems to know a lot. anyway… If you say there are ten people, wouldn’t you be able to get one or two? What do you think?” 

The last question of Jeok Gyeol-myeong was directed towards the rest of the people. He asked about it and glanced around everyone in the room. When no one answered, Jeok Gyeol-myung chuckled. 

“Everyone is hiding their true feelings like this… Can’t you have a conversation? Shall I be honest with you? The quality of the kid who guided me was extraordinary.” 

The eyes of the other three people flashed momentarily at the word of quality. In addition to this, everyone recognized each other’s signs and looked surprised. 

“No way… Are you all like that?” As Jeok Gyeol-myung knew, the arguments that guided the people here were all different. 

Of course, Nam Gung-jun and Zhuge Gwan, who came in last, had actually come together, so there was only one quarrel who guided them. In any case, it was very unusual that all three Sibi had excellent qualities.

 And to be honest, it was surprising. When he saw someone, it was never easy to figure out the qualities or constitution of that person. He would be recognizable as a very good legislator. However, there were not many such people among the uninhabited. 

It was not because one was good at martial arts, or had a lot of experience. Jeok Gyeol-myeong was quite proud of it in that respect. This was because he had a special talent for looking at someone and figuring out what his qualities were. 

However, looking at the atmosphere now, the other three people gathered here looked similar to him. Four people with rare talents were gathered. 

And so, one was bound to be surprised Those present here were those who had established a certain position in the organization or family to which they each belonged. He was old enough and had a seat, so he was thinking about raising a disciple at this point. 

In the meantime, he managed to meet someone with great qualities. 

“It takes a little bit of getting older, but…”

Jeok Gyeol-myung quickly spoke to Jin Sa-hong’s murmur. “Then you go away. I don’t mind anyway.” 

“When did I say I was going to leave? It’s just that.” 

In fact, the people who guided them were so talented that they didn’t even have to consider their age. Of course, one would have to test it while teaching yourself to know more about it, but honestly, just looking at it for a while was enough. He had qualities, but his physique seemed unusual. 

The reason they did not consider their age was because of the constitution they understood.

 “Anyway, I hope the person named Byeok Tae-san is not a closeminded person,” Zhuge Gwan said so with a slightly concerned expression. “Honestly, it’s clear that following us will be a much better opportunity for those kids, but if you’re trying to stop it because of your ego… then personally, it seems a bit disappointing.” 

Everyone nodded at that. Of course, not all four people here were pure-hearted. No, strictly speaking, all four of them were mixed with a bit of evil. That was because they were so beautiful. As they were talking about the quarrels who had guided them in this way, Byeok Tae-san arrived.

The door slowly opened, and the man in question walked into the waiting room, all with a fire-wrap, and the eyes of the four people turned to it at once. Their eyes widened slightly. 

‘Are you there again?’ 

Their eyes were all on Ok Hwa. 

After one night with Byeok Tae-san, Ok Hwa’s beauty was in full bloom. She was much more varied than the others. Half of her was because of her age, and the other half was because of the moonshine magic she had been learning recently. 

Ok Hwa was originally Hao-Mun’s chief of the Uichang branch. Of course, she wasn’t young. He was the same age as Baekhwa Rouge. However, after one night with Byeok Tae-san, she seemed younger than before. 

She had now come to believe that she was the same age as all the other quarrels. And Moonyoung Magong was a magician who trained under the moonlight at night. Taking in the moonlight and absorbing its power, it had a significant effect on her appearance. 

Anyway, when Ok Hwa entered the room, everyone couldn’t take their eyes off it because the surroundings seemed to be bright. 

Byeok Tae-san saw this and smiled. “I thought you came to see me… Now that I see it, it doesn’t seem that way.”

 At those words, the four of them suddenly came to their senses. A slight look of embarrassment appeared in their eyes but then disappeared as fast as it had come. 

All of them had passed the age limit. However, the feeling of shame was still apparent. 

The first thing that came to his sense was Zhuge Gwan. He got up abruptly and took the spear politely towards Tae-san. 

“This is the Jegal-gwan. It’s nice to see you.”

Byeok Tae-san glared slightly at the appearance of Zhuge Gwan, and then took the supremacy. 

“I’m Byeok Tae-san.” 

Only then did the other three take control, and Byeok Tae-san accepted it lightly. Five people, including Byeok Tae-san, sat around a large round table. 

In addition to this, Ok Hwa stood quietly behind the wall, her eyes twinkling. His eyes kept reaching Ok Hwa, and then falling. 

Byeok Tae-san silently watched what they were doing. This made his lips lift upwards. 

“Our Zhuge Sega will soon settle down in Wuhan.” 

He looked at Tae-san for a moment before he continued. “We haven’t laid a solid foundation yet, but we want to solve that part by dealing with the top of the gold wall. Of course, someone else is doing it for you. I came here because I wanted to maintain a good relationship with Confucius.” 

All in all, Zhuge Guan’s attitude was very polite. He did not press down on his age or position, nor did he take his words lightly. In addition to this, his eyes were full of sincerity.

Starting with Zhuge Gwan, the rest of the people said similar things. One wanted to use the top of the golden house to establish himself in Wuhan, and one wanted to maintain a good relationship with Byeok Tae-san. 

After starting a conversation like that, little by little, they then started talking about things like Moorim’s situation, what happened in Wuhan, and so on. 

Byeok Tae-san was mostly listening, staying quiet for the majority of the time. This meant that the other men had to do their best in order to drag the conversation out. However, no matter how hard they tried, the conversation seldom went smoothly because all he gave were simple replies. 

At this, Ok Hwa, watching it from behind, broke out in a cold sweat. She knew just how Byeok Tae-san was, but the four people in front of Tae-san were also really great people.

However, the atmosphere now seemed to flow as if the four people were trying to win the heart of Byeok Tae-san. If this atmosphere were to continue, they would soon feel very uncomfortable. Still, time was short, so as the conversation continued, the atmosphere itself gradually softened. Occasionally, they even joked with each other, so Jeok Gyeol-myung, who had only looked at the presented opportunities until now, finally spoke up.

“For my hearing… I heard that Confucius’ quarrels are so famous, is that right?” 

At this, Byeok Tae-san looked at Jeok Gyeol-myeong without answering. Jeok Gyeol-myung got a feel of the atmosphere before he continued what he said, as he felt that it didn’t look bad. 

“If it’s not rude, can you show me Confucius’ quarrels? I want to check something important to you.” After saying that, Jeok Gyeol-myung brought in the other three as well. “I wasn’t the only one who thought of that. Everyone else here thinks the same. maybe… I think it could be a very important opportunity for Confucius’ quarrels.” 

For a while, Byeok Tae-san stared at Jeok Ggyeol-myeong. His expression was calm, but the atmosphere had become heavy. They didn’t make an impression or stare, they just looked at each other, and it felt as if the air had been pushing heavily on their backs.

Tae-san slowly turned his head to look at Ok Hwa. “The guests are coming. Guide me out.” 

At this, the man got up from his seat and left the room.

It was a very rude act, but no one in the room could speak. They couldn’t even say a single word. 

Upon seeing that, Ok Hwa’s face turned pale. Once he left, everyone’s shoulders drooped. And to his surprise, he realized that by then he had been holding his breath. 

“Uhhhhhhhh,” everyone breathed in unison. Since they were experts, they had managed to hide how they felt until now. However, their minds weren’t as calm. 

Ok Hwa’s voice permeated their ears. “I will guide you out.”

 Before long, the woman had settled her expression and mood and made a decision on what to do. At her polite words, all of them looked at her as she trembled. After thinking for a while, they finally nodded and stood up.

Today wouldn’t be the only opportunity.

* * * 

Jin Sa-hong and Jeok Gyeol-myeong, Nam Gung-jun, and Zhuge Gwan left the golden house and walked side by side for a while. In fact, they could have parted at the front door, but no one did. They just walked without a word. 

The first person to open his mouth was Zhuge Gwan, just like before. 

“What was it?” 

Everyone shook their heads. “I was never swayed by the momentum….” 

If so, you wouldn’t know. “I don’t think Confucius is a great master…” 

They were certain about this too, because they were able to grasp the level of Byeok Tae-san very clearly. Just looking at him was enough. Tae-san was definitely one of the most outstanding among his peers. They had clearly confirmed that the information and rumors they had obtained were not wrong.

However, that was it. There are so many warriors at that level that if one were to go to the Moorimmaeng or Heukryeon, one would inevitably get stuck. In fact, even with the samurai squad they lead, they could pull out more than ten warriors of that level. 

“Isn’t there some truth in there?” 

At Jin Sa-hong’s plausible opinion, Zhuge Gwan shook his head. “I didn’t see it.” 

If that was the case, then what was it? 

“If… Maybe a great master was hiding there?” 

Everyone tilted their heads at Zhuge Gwan’s opinion. There was no possibility of this at all.

“By the way… I can’t really say anything, and I’ve been pouring out a lot of useless words.” 

Everyone shut their mouths at Zhuge Gwan’s self-helpful murmur. And even then, they couldn’t think of the fact that Byeok Tae-san had been rude. 

It had been a long time since they had returned to their place of residence.[Read this novel and other amazing translated novels from the original source at the “Novel Multiverse dot com” website @ novelmultiverse.com]
