Return of The Mount Hua – Chapter 207. An ancestor's whip hurts a little (2)

There was dead silence all around.

Defeated.

Tang Hak was defeated.

The unbelievable reality left everyone from Tang Family speechless.

‘It’s not even the Mount Hua Divine Dragon.’

A member of the Tang Family loses to nothing more than a woman.

No matter how much that disciple, Yoo Iseol, seems to have a higher generation than Mount Hua Divine Dragon, she was actually much younger than Tang Hak.

But they can't believe that Tang Hak got defeated.….

Those watching swallowed dry saliva.

This means too much.

There are many sects in the world, but there are few places that revolve around men as much as the Tang Family. Tang Family is a heartless place where no matter how good a six-year-old daughter is, they do not give her their secret art.

And Tang Hak, who is considered the best among the promising talent of the Tang family, was defeated by a female student of Mount Hua.

Tang So-so clenched her fist.

"……she won."

Her eyes trembled.

Yoo Iseol beat Tang Hak.

It may come as a surprise to others, but it was especially shocking for Tang So-so.

Beating Tang Hak.

That is the last thing on her mind.

Of course, the conditions are different. Born as Tang Family’s daughter and not being taught the Tang Family's secret art, she will never be able to defeat Tang Hak even if she dies and is resurrected again.

But Yoo Iseol did it.

"……It's amazing."

Tang So-so's face looking at Yoo Iseol was blank.

After looking at Yoo Iseol for a long time while she was treating her poisoning, she suddenly tilted her head slightly.

‘Huh?’

‘Why is he coming up again?’

Chung Myung was seen coming up onto the duel stage.

The match has already been won, but why?

Chung Myung went on stage and looked around once.

Naturally, everyone's eyes were on him.

He took a little more time even though he caught the crowd’s eye. He is just waiting for everyone to pay attention. It was not until people were a little frustrated that Chung Myung opened his mouth.

"To be honest."

Chung Myung opened his mouth in a voice that was neither high nor low.

"I was expecting more of Tang Family...…."

And he tilted his head.

"I don't know what this is doing?"

Everyone looked at Chung Myung with a little surprise.

This is an outright disrespectful statement toward Tang Family.

"Ah, don't look at me with such an angry face. If you all were in my shoes, everyone would think like me."

Chung Myung pointed to Tang Hak who was being carried away with a chin gesture.

"Look at that."

"……."

Everyone's shut up.

Losers have nothing to say.

"It is the basic of the basics to understand one's own abilities and the other's abilities before starting a fight. I didn't know that Tang Family wouldn't be able to keep the basics."

Chung Myung grinned.

Of course, the members of the Tang Family felt anger at low-key ridicule.

But they couldn't bring themselves to express their anger toward Chung Myung.

They can't help it.

Tang Hak did not lose to Chung Myung. He lost to Chung Myung's group.

If Yoo Iseol was stronger than Chung Myung, Mount Hua Divine Dragon's nickname would have been taken by her, meaning that the odds of Tang Hak beating Chung Myung did not exist in the first place.

Nevertheless, he pushes for a duel?

This was no different from being openly humiliated.

Look down on the opponent and overconfidence in yourself. This is something that a person who leads a sect should never do.

"That's why I'm asking...…."

Chung Myung looked around and said.

"Who asked you to do this duel nonsense?"

The eyes naturally turn.

They don't open their mouth and complain, but as soon as they receive the question, some turn their heads reflexively, and the others have no choice but to follow the gaze.

Soon all eyes were on Tang Wei.

"Keuhum."

Tang Wei coughed in vain with a face that was extremely uncomfortable.

‘D*mn it.’

Things got messed up.

Tang Hak is no match for Chung Myung. Tang Wei has also expected the same. Isn't that why he tried to poison Chung Myung?

But when Tang Hak lost to Yoo Iseol, everything was destroyed.

It may look ugly, but if he had achieved victory after somehow overcoming the struggle, he could have become Sogaju as promised by Gaju. The important thing is to win, not how to win.

But all that promise is meaningless as long as he has been tragically defeated by Yoo Iseol in front of everyone.

Besides...

Attention is drawn to him as to why he pushed for this duel.

‘You want me to explain this with my own mouth?'

To say that he has poisoned Chung Myung to achieve victory?

There's no way he can do that!

Now there's no choice but to be beaten up. He became an idiot who thoughtlessly dared to propose a duel with Mount Hua Divine Dragon without knowing his grandson's capabilities.

Tang Wei gazed at Chung Myung, suppressing his impending outburst of anger.

‘This is all because of him!'

Thinking about it, he wants to run down there right away and tear him apart. But all he could do was stare at Chung Myung.

There musn’t a say that the elder of the Tang family attacked a young junior because he couldn't rein his anger.

Chung Myung smiles at such Tang Wei.

"Ah. You are an elder."

Chung Myung, who emphasized the word "Elder," tilted his head.

"But that's weird. I heard that the Senate of the Tang family is a place to advise Gaju...…. from someone who doesn't know his grandson's capabilities and doesn't know the enemy's capabilities, just for who he gave advice to?"

"How dare you!"

Tang Wei unwittingly put a harsh word into his mouth.

"Look, Gaju bet that we're going to win. Who gives advice to whom?"

"This..."

Tang Wei distorts his face.

Now Chung Myung is touching his most painful spot.

Tang Hak's loss is manageable. Unfortunately, he just didn't get what he was hoping for.

But it is fatal for his choice to be revealed in front of so many people.

Because this is his original role.

The Senate is a place to advise Gaju.

Naturally, the adviser may not be stronger than Gaju, but they must have more insight than Gaju. It is natural for those who have built their own rooms under the name of elders to be pushed to the back room if they cannot even prove their insight.

"The Senate, that's a good thing to say. But I'm wondering if you're grabbing Gaju’s ankle for no reason."

"You'd better watch your mouth. There's a limit to watching the self-indulgence of Mount Hua’s young warrior." (The mtl is 아해의)

Tang Wei, who couldn't stand his anger, uttered a cold word. However, Chung Myung, rather than being frightened by the words, refers to Tang Wei.

"Look at it."

Chung Myung smirks.

"You don't know what you are talking about. You don't even know who's going easy on you."

"……what did you say?"

Chung Myung shrugged and looked around.

"Do you know why this happened?"

No one could have answered.

Even those who guessed dared not speak out, and those who did not know could not speak because they did not know.

"It's simple."

As if to explain to them, Chung Myung raises his hand and points to the platform.

"Because you are weak."

"……."

Tang Wei's eyes grew bigger.

"You're weak, so you don't know how strong your opponent is. Are you giving me advice on such a topic?"

Chung Myung shakes his head.

"I’d rather be spared from it."

"…… you!"

"That's what it is now. If the Senate hadn’t held the ankle,  there wouldn't have been such a disgrace, and Gaju would have pushed ahead with what he wanted. This is the price of listening to the old people in the backstage, The Senate."

It was that moment.

"Mount Hua Divine Dragon."

Tang Gun-ak speaks in a slightly low voice.

"Be careful of what you say. They're the elders of the Tang Family."

"Oh my, Gaju-nim are so kind."

Chung Myung, who exaggerated his admiration, stiffens his face at the moment and says coldly.

"You still take care of these bulky luggage as adults.”

"You punk!"

Tang Wei jumped out of his seat.

"You know no limit! How long did you think I'd put up with it?"

"Look at him. I have no idea."

"What?"

"I'm telling you not to put up with it. The yangban who can't understand one thing, what? Elder?"

Chung Myung raises his head and looks straight at Tang Wei.

"Prove it. Whether you deserve to be the elder."

"How…?"

What Tang Wei was originally trying to say,

‘How do you want me to prove it?'

It was, but Tang Wei immediately shut up when he realized that it was the intention of Mount Hua Divine Dragon for him to say it.

But Chung Myung's words that followed made it difficult for him to bear it any longer.

"It's simple. They say they've been patient since before. That's what the strong do to the weak."

"……What?"

"That's right. It's because he doesn't have eyes." (The raw is 그쪽은 눈이 없다니까요.")

Chung Myung tapped his scabbard

"I'm stronger."

"……."

"Prove that insight.  If Wonju-nim beat me, Wonju-nim saw it properly, and if I win, wouldn't those eyes be completely useless?"

"Ha...…."

Tang Wei laughed loud.

"Hahaha... hahahaha! Hahahaha!"

Tang Wei, who finally burst into laughter, asks Chung Myung in a ridiculous tone.

"Are you asking me for a fight?"

"Wow. I've been explaining it for a long time just to make you understand. It shouldn't be that difficult."

"……."

Tang Wei unknowingly rubbed the back of the neck slightly.

Every word, every word turns his stomach upside down. He couldn't bear to listen.

"You lost your reason after gaining a small reputation. Do you want to duel with me, the Elder Taesangro of the Tang Family?

"Excuse me."

Chung Myung sighed deeply.

"I know you can't hear me well because you're old, but it's hard to keep saying the same thing. What are you going to do?"

Tang Wei grind his teeth.

But come to think of it, this isn't all that outrageous.

The situation is at its worst anyway.

If he beat that cheeky bastard in front of the Tang Family members, he would be able to close this situation for now.

"Gaju!"

Tang Wei spoke coldly.

"What would you do? Do you understand what would happen if you kill that kid?"(the raw is 내가 저 아이를 죽인다 해도 이해하시겠소)

Tang Gun-ak said with an expressionless face.

"Mount Hua Divine Dragon is a friend of the Tang family."

"……."

"So we can't stop a friend from doing anything they want."

"Huh?"

Tang Wei, who was looking at Tang Gun-ak as if it was absurd, burst into laughter.

"Hahahaha! I guess I really did look ridiculous."

Tang Wei immediately flew himself up onto the duel stage.

Before the fluttering hem of his robe could even settle down, Tang Wei stared at Chung Myung with a ghostly face.

"You've gone too far. You should have talked back to the proper level and been satisfied." (The raw is 적당한 수준에서 만족하고 돌아갔어야 하는 것을)

"Be careful."

"Hmm?"

Chung Myung grinned.

"You shouldn't talk recklessly in front of people. Now the jokes are increasing one by one. Even after the duel is over, you'll have to live in the Tang Family, so how are you going to carry your face around?"

Tang Wei did not reply any more.

Now he can't find any reason to talk more with him. All he wants to do is blacken that bastard with poison and put a dagger in his stomach.

"Oh, just in case. Are you going to use poison?"

Tang Wei bit his lip slightly.

He is good at Dokgong((毒功/is the term for martial arts, and refers to the technique of using poison). If he doesn't use poison, he can't even use a third of his skills.

But...

'That alone is enough to kill him.'

As soon as he was about to say he wouldn't use it, Chung Myung took the initiative.

"If you want to use poison, let's add one more condition."

"……conditions?"

"This is more of a bet than a condition."

Chung Myung glanced at Tang Gun-ak.

Then Tang Gun-ak quietly nodded his head.

He don't know what Chung Myung wanted to say, but he going to trust Chung Myung for now. But the words that followed made even the world's famous Tang Gun-ak shocked.

"If you win, I'll give you everything you want. After Mount Hua leaves Tang Family, Mount Hua won't look back at this place again, and that idiot from before? Yes, Gaju will put him as Sogaju."

"……Huh?"

A confused voice flowed out of the mouth of Tang Gun-ak.

But he can't bite what has already been said.

Tang Wei stared at Chung Myung in disbelief and asked.

"Are you out of your mind?"

"Don't worry. Because I'm completely sane. Instead, we have to change the conditions here."

"……what are the conditions?"

"If I win...…."

Chung Myung's smiling face gets cold little by little.

'Don't keep coming to mind.'

‘I'll do whatever you want. You fucking bastard.’

Chung Myung, who took a deep breath, said coldly.

"Dismantle the Senate and step down. To Gaju-nim, advisors like you are good for nothing."

The cold voice of Chung Myung penetrated everyone's ears.
