The Return of the Namgoong Clan’s Granddaughter - Chapter 140
Only Noblemtl
Episode 140
“Stop talking and sit down.”
The one who broke the silence was the long-suffering disciple, Yu Baek.
The atmosphere in the restaurant was already ruined by Liu Biao’s remarks.
Although Liu Biao’s words were extremely rude, in fact, most of Huashan’s disciples tended to look down on the Sega’s martial artists.
Unlike the schools of martial arts whose history has been passed down through generations, the martial arts of Sega lacked the basics and had no foundation.
In addition, Sega often started to establish itself thanks to one outstanding martial artist who was famous in the martial arts world, so he acknowledged that person, but did not acknowledge Sega’s martial artists.
So how indignant must Namgung be at his words that he called the volcano pitiful?
‘One, you must not cause trouble.’
Namgung Sega’s visit to the main text was an unprecedented exchange between Sega and the sect.
Perhaps, the attention of numerous powerful families and schools in the Central Plains martial arts world will be focused on this exchange.
‘During this exchange, there must be absolutely no way that the volcano will look bad.’
As this is the first exchange, Hwasan’s generosity and kindness must be highlighted.
Yu Baek rose from his seat, bowed to the Black Dragon Lord, and took the lottery ticket.
“I apologize, Your Majesty. This is my fault for not handling the priests properly, so please forgive me with your generous heart.”
Then he bowed again towards the Black Dragon members.
“I apologize for being rude to the Namgung Se-ga’s military men. What the priest said is not true. The text respects the Namgung Se-ga’s military men and also respects the Namgung Se-ga’s martial arts.”
He smiled kindly and looked at the members of the Namgung family.
“They say that the history of the Namgung Se family is as blue as the clear sky. I can’t even imagine how beautiful the energy would be when combined with the noble Namgung Se family’s sword.”
Yoo Baek tried his best to save Namgung’s face.
If a fight were to break out here, and if it were caused by a child of the Hwasan faction, Hwasan would ultimately be held responsible.
Such an unfortunate event had to be prevented.
one.
“That sounds good.”
While I was talking nonsense in an attempt to not upset Namgung Se-ga as much as possible, the Black Dragon Lord suddenly stood up from his seat.
Yu Baek stared at him blankly.
“…yes?”
“Why would we need to imagine? Aren’t there excellent warriors of our Namgung family here?”
The Black Dragon Commander pointed to the Black Dragon members sitting next to him.
“It was fate that brought us here, so why not try something new while we’re at it?”
“… .”
“It seems like there are a lot of things that have piled up between us, so wouldn’t this be a good opportunity to clear up any misunderstandings we have about each other?”
Yu Baek was in a difficult position.
Regardless of the interests of the sects and families, those gathered here are all uninhabited.
In fact, the disciples of the Hwasan faction were also secretly looking forward to crossing swords with Namgung Sega when they heard he was coming.
Because it’s not easy to get a chance to try new swordsmanship, rather than the same old ones every day.
however.
‘If we win, we only save face, but if we lose, we tarnish the reputation of our sect.’
That is why, as soon as he received the message from Namgung Se-ga, he instructed his disciples firmly.
Don’t cause trouble for the Namgung family.
The only one who did not hear that request was Yoo Pyo, who returned with Namgung Se-ga.
‘I never thought that the overlooked Yoo Byo would cause trouble.’
I don’t know what kind of humiliation he suffered in Namgung Se-ga that made him lose his composure and act so provocatively.
‘One, it would be better not to accept the offer.’
Even if it’s to save the reputation of the Daegeommunpa.
At that moment, when Yu Baek, who had reached a conclusion, opened his mouth to reject the offer.
“Is there really a need to have a match where we can decide who wins and who loses?”
The Black Dragon Lord struck the player.
“If winning or losing is the issue, wouldn’t it be better to stop the fight before it is decided? Ten warriors from the main family and ten Taoists from the Hwasan faction should be enough. What do you think?”
Yu Baek couldn’t answer right away.
There can be no match where the winner is unknown.
If you clash swords with an opponent a few times, both parties will know who will win and who will lose.
If you have a good eye for it, the person who sees it will definitely notice it.
First, not deciding the winner or loser means not necessarily announcing it officially. It means that the fact that Hwasan and Namgung had a duel will be reported unofficially.
‘If it’s unofficial….’
There’s nothing wrong with that, right?
It just so happened that everyone wanted to see Namgung Se-ga’s sword.
‘I guess I won’t be able to see the Emperor’s sword in person.’
First, you will be able to get a glimpse of the sword that made the head of the Namgung family one of the top ten masters in the world.
“…great.”
After much thought, Yu Baek gave a positive answer.
“However, this doesn’t seem like something we can decide on our own. First, I’d like to ask the adults in the main text for their opinions. Is that okay?”
“There is no way it won’t work. I will also get permission from the master.”
“Today… I’m sure you still have some aftereffects, so enjoy your meal and get some rest.”
The Black Dragon Lord smiled with satisfaction.
He instructed the Black Dragon Clan to finish their meal, and Liu Baek also gestured to the disciples of the Hwasan Clan.
The restaurant’s atmosphere became lively again.
The meal continued with casual conversation between the two groups, but an indelible and strange atmosphere hung between them.
* * *
The distant sound of a cuckoo’s cry could be heard from somewhere.
When I came out after finishing my meal, the sun was already setting.
“Huh! I thought there was going to be a fight!”
Yoo Kang stretched and shouted as if he could breathe easier.
Although he was a great disciple, Yoo Kang was a young man who was initiated under special circumstances and sat at the very bottom of the great disciples.
As the daughter of the Namgung family, Seolhwa was entitled to sit at the highest seat, but she sat across from Yoo Kang and watched the situation because she wanted to become friends with someone her age.
“Your Majesty the Seal has come up with an interesting plan.”
“You should have told me in advance! I was worried because I thought a real fight was going to break out!”
“How could that be? The disciples of the Volcano Sect really hate the Volcano Sect.”
No Taoist would act according to his whims, even though he knew that the Volcano Sect was in danger. Of course, that would be different if he were a spy of the Blood Sect pretending to be a Taoist.
“That’s true. We’re family.”
‘family?’
Seolhwa looked back at Yugang. At the same time.
“Private school! Private school for Yu Kang!”
The two great disciples of the Volcano Sect came running.
Jinyoung and Jinye, who had told Seolhwa the story of Yugang during the day, were also seen.
The disciples who came running poured out questions with excited faces.
“Is it true that the main text and Namgung Se-ga are fighting?”
“Can we see it too?”
“Do you go to the private tutoring center as well?”
It seemed that Seol-hwa had many questions for him, but since he was not yet comfortable approaching her, he only asked questions to Yoo-gang.
“Ahaha, sorry, I don’t know. Ah! Why don’t you ask Lady Namgung instead of me? Lady Namgung would know better than me.”
Yoo Kang naturally turned the attention of the disciples to Seol Hwa. The disciples stared at Seol Hwa with curious eyes.
I glanced at Yu-gang, and he winked with a proud expression. Then he put his index fingers together and whispered with just the shape of his lips.
‘Let’s get to know each other!’
He had been feeling apologetic all along for not being able to mediate between the two disciples during the day, but now his face had brightened.
“Young lady…! Did you learn swordsmanship too, young lady?”
“Have you personally seen the sword of the Namgung Sega family?”
The disciples, who had become more open-minded, began to shower Seolhwa with questions.
Seol-hwa answered their questions sincerely while Yu-gang looked at the scene with pleasure.

The second morning dawned on the volcano.
From early in the morning, Namgung Mucheon visited the main building of Hwasan.
This was because the leader of the Hwasan faction expressed his intention to meet him.
“I didn’t know that the long-legged one would accept it so immediately. The Heavenly Dragon Sword Emperor visited Hwasan, and he said that it was right to meet him.”
Noh Baek, who was guiding Namgung Mucheon, also seemed a little surprised by Jang Moonin’s choice.
“Isn’t the Okmaegeom the one with the deepest connection to me in this Hwasan faction?”
“I have heard the story that Jang Moon-in and the head of the household once joined forces to subdue the Black Swordsmen.”
“It was all Ok Maegeom’s doing. I just helped.”
“That’s why you earned the nickname of Heavenly Dragon Sword Emperor.”
“Was it like that?”
Hehe, while laughing and chatting, the two arrived at the conference room where Jang Moon-in was waiting.
Before opening the door, Noh Baek spoke to Namgung Mucheon.
“Your Majesty, you are covering your face. I know it is rude, but please be lenient.”
“Don’t worry.”
Finally, the conference room door opened.
Until yesterday, Noh Baek, the chief deputy chief, was sitting in the same spot as Noh Woon, the chief deputy chief, who was seen with his face covered by a white cloth.
His face, glimpsed through the curtains, was bumpy and covered with boils again, as if it had never been completely healed.
The room was filled with such a foul odor that even the elders sitting on either side of him looked uncomfortable.
Namgung Mucheon lightly took the ball towards Noh Woon with the corners of his lips curled.
“I, Namgung Mucheon, the head of the Namgung Sega family, am meeting with the head of the Hwasan faction.”
