The Return of the Namgoong Clan’s Granddaughter - Chapter 110



Only Noblemtl

Episode 110

When one person appears and reigns as the ruler of the Central Plains, people call him ‘the best in the world.’

However, if one force appears and subdues all the forces in the Central Plains and reigns over them, people will remember the head of that force as the ‘ruler’.

“What he wants is to be the ruler. A ruler that everyone will kneel before and worship.”

In order to do that, not only the Blood Demon but the entire Blood Cult must be prepared. The time needed for that is the next five years.

‘Today’s events can be said to be proof that the Blood Cult was not prepared.’

The flesh and blood vines seen today were much weaker than those Sulwha had known in her previous life.

He was not familiar with the blood attack he had learned from the Blood Demon, and because of that, he had not yet been able to control the Yangtze River waterway.

Five years later, Yuk Hyeol-ju will have the same level of martial arts skills as Namgung Mucheon and will have power comparable to Namgung.

In that sense, it was a stroke of luck that I met Yuk Hyeonju today.

With this, one of the six forces that were at the center of the Blood Cult has been eliminated.

‘There is a possibility that the Blood Horse will establish a new flesh bloodline, but for now, this is it.’

The death of the flesh-and-blood lord would be a shock to the blood demons and a good declaration of war.

If you could give up on yourself for this, that would be great.

The Blood Demon may establish a new flesh bloodline, or may be stimulated by this incident to bring forward the appearance of the Blood Cult, but once the past has been changed, it is inevitable that the future will change.

‘You just have to prepare accordingly.’

A lot has already changed, and things have gotten a little better. One of the six bloodlines has been killed, so there are five left.

The war has already begun.

* * *

The waterway was a mess.

In many places, treatment was in full swing for the wounded who had emerged from the battle with the Bloodthirsty.

“miss!!”

The spirit who discovered the story came running in one go.

Only then did Namgung Mucheon put Seolhwa down on the floor.

“I’ll go and check on your father.”

“Yes. See you at the barracks, Grandpa.”

As Namgung Mucheon and Seop Mu-gwang left, the spirit that had been fidgeting a little distance away approached.

“…miss.”

“Spirit.”

Just as I was about to ask, “Are you very confused?”

With a thud, Yeong knelt down in front of Seolhwa.

“Please punish me for not being able to properly protect you, young lady, and for not being able to stay by your side during times of danger!”

Seolhwa blinked in surprise.

As expected, it seemed like he was in a lot of trouble.

“wake up.”

“miss….”

“I was the one who sent you. If I have to be punished, it’s my turn to receive it. So get up.”

But Ling couldn’t take the hand that Seolhwa held out. Seolhwa let out a short sigh and bent her knees and sat down in front of her.

“Everyone has a first time. You’re my first time as an escort too… .”

Throughout my past lives.

“This is your first time being an escort too.”

Seolhwa reached out to Yeong again.

“You can learn from this mistake and do better in the future.”

The spirit looked up at the small hand held out in front of him.

Ling hesitated for a moment at the sight of the child’s bright smile.

‘Miss… something… .’

Hasn’t something changed…?

The fact that Seolhwa has no emotions is known only to a few people, including Namgung Mucheon and Cheongun.

However, the spirit who had been closest to Seolhwa in recent times was the first to notice the small changes in the child.

“thank you.”

The spirit took hold of the child’s hand.

I’m not sure what changed, but it seemed like a sign of good change.

“Namgungryeong. I will continue to do my best to assist you in the future.”

* * *

Except for Cheongun and Cheongsan, who needed urgent treatment, Namgung Mucheon, Seop Mu-gwang, and Heukryongdaeju gathered at Chaeju’s barracks.

There was also talk about Jinso-yak’s pulse treatment and future plans, so Seol-hwa also kept her place.

There were children mixed in with the adults, but no one thought it was strange.

Meng Deung-ho, who had joined the battle relatively late and had suffered few injuries, furrowed his eyebrows at the strange sight as he entered the barracks.

“Are you the owner of the ghost house?”

Namgung Mucheon, who was sitting at the top, asked in a seemingly solemn voice.

Maeng Deung-ho took the lottery ticket towards him.

“Please meet the Heavenly Dragon Sword Emperor.”

“Sit down.”

It was when Maeng Deung-ho was about to sit down in his seat.

“Are you the one who kidnapped my granddaughters?”

Maeng Deung-ho shivered without realizing it.

Although he wasn’t emitting any aura or killing intent, an undeniable sense of intimidation emanated from Namgung Mucheon.

As he was so overwhelmed that he couldn’t even open his lips, and was just sweating, Namgung Mucheon’s gaze, which had been lingering for a while, dispersed.

“I was wondering who touched my granddaughters, and it was a kid.”

At that moment, Maeng Deung-ho realized what So-yak had meant.

‘Snow Flower said so! She said that if we pretended to be a hostage, we could save Dad!’

I thought it was something he did to save Namgung’s people. But it wasn’t just that. Thanks to that, my neck is still hanging on.

At this moment, Maeng Deung-ho was grateful to Seol-hwa.

“Enough with that story. Seolhwa. Didn’t you say you had something to say to Iza?”

“yes.”

Seolhwa looked at Maengdeungho.

“It’s about Soyak. I suggest that Soyak stay at Namgung until his arrhythmia is completely cured.”

Maeng Deung-ho’s gaze wavered slightly.

“Does the treatment for varicose veins take a long time?”

“At least five years.”

The Yin-Yang Great Axis veins must be treated with constant elixirs to control the flow of energy and blood until proper symptoms appear.

The most important treatment is when symptoms appear and the blood and energy are distorted. If a master of the highest level or higher corrects the blood and energy when an attack occurs, it can be completely cured.

“The symptoms of the Yin-Yang Great Vessel appear around the age of ten. So-Yak is six years old, so it will take four or five years. The one or two years before the symptoms appear are when So-Yak is at his weakest.”

The child, who is already weak due to arrhythmia, will become even weaker and will vomit blood and collapse at any moment.

“Are you going to leave it in such a dangerous place?”

Maeng Deung-ho let out a long sigh.

After finding out that Soyak was suffering from vasovagal syncope, I did everything I could.

I went around looking for famous doctors, wandered around the mountains to get elixirs, and even went as far as to touch Namgung.

‘It’s okay to be away for five years, as long as it saves the child.’

“As you said… Hippo.”

They kidnapped Namgung’s child, but it was like they were giving my child away as bait.

Which of the few would place their children in the hands of the Jeongpa Sega? No one in Heukdo would do such a thing.

‘The water quality is bad.’

If you do anything that is even slightly unreasonable, they will use your children to put pressure on you.

In effect, it was the same as telling people to stop stealing.

“Don’t worry. Five years will pass quickly.”

“What do you mean?”

“Your Majesty, you have to be the general lender of this Jang River waterway.”

“…?”

Looking at him, who was bewildered, Seol-hwa pointed to the map of the waterway spread out on the table.

widely.

The place the child pointed to was the east side of the map, the location of the blood clot.

“Today, the Guiyeongchae defeated the Hyulsachae. The Hyulsachae is the wealthiest of the eighteen chaes and is a stronghold connecting to the sea route.”

“…right.”

Seolhwa’s hand then pointed to the location of the ghost.

“And the Guiyingchae is strong enough to survive the hegemony of our Namgung family. Since it is a waterway leading to Hubei, it was able to withstand the influence of the famous shaman and the Jegal family.”

Maeng Deung-ho nodded without realizing it.

He, who had just found it strange that there was a thirteen-year-old child in the mix, was paying more attention to the child’s words than anyone else.

“The best wealth and solid military power in Surochae. With these two, anything is not impossible.”

Actually, it is something that the flesh and blood lords did in their previous lives.

“There… .”

Seolhwa smiled and looked back at Namgung Mucheon.

“When needed, Namgung will help Chaeju.”

Namgung Mucheon nodded silently.

This was the story before Maeng Deung-ho arrived.

Let’s make the Guiyeongchae the ruler of the waterway, and secure the waterway.

In any case, someone will become the total debtor and seize control of the waterway.

In that case, it would be better if that someone, Namgung, is someone Seolhwa can control.

‘What’s left is….’

It is only Maeng Deung-ho’s will.

“Your Majesty.”

Maeng Deung-ho looked up from his blank stare at the map and faced the child.

He had only thought about protecting the royal palace until now, and had never thought about expanding the territory of the royal palace.

But what if Namgung Se-ga helps him with that, with the wealth of the Blood Clan and the power of the Gwiyeong Clan?

“Don’t you want to control the waterways that encompass the Central Plains?”

The child’s words are sweet.

“If it’s you, Chae Joo, you can definitely become a loser on the water. And… .”

It’s so sweet that my head goes dark.

In that dark mind.

“With that power, no one will be able to touch Soyak.”

One clear goal was outlined.
