The Northern Sea Ice Palace’s Martial God Son-in-Law Chapter 99 : Chapter 99

Chapter 99 : Sect Leader

A rain of flowers falls.

Thud, thud, thud.

The poison n, who received a baptism of fine needles from head to toe, begin to collapse.

It is truly overwhelming martial prowess.

"W-why do you... use the Tang Clan's Ten Thousand Heavens Flower Rain!"

A poison man who handles the Five Poisons shouted while fine needles were embedded in his whole body.

At that shout, I smiled and smirked.

"It is troubleso if you think the Ten Thousand Heavens Flower Rain is the exclusive property of the Tang Clan."

"That is......."

"Now, stop, go."

It's tireso.

Whoosh-

The poison n lted down due to the fine needles of the Ten Thousand Heavens Flower Rain.

And the Five Poison Old Freak was swept away by the fire demon and ended his life.

We withstood the ambush splendidly and defeated them.

"...How is this different from freezing everything?"

Seol Ye-rin approached and spoke to as if arguing.

"It is different. No one can imitate the Young Palace Head's martial arts, but Mu-myeong will see the martial arts I unfolded, learn, and co to imitate it."

"But why have you been using honorifics since a while ago......."

When arguing with the Young Palace Head, this was comfortable for too.

"Thanks to you, we survived."

Diancang's Baek Ri-geuk ca and offered a greeting.

"Not at all, let's go quickly. I think Diancang Mountain will start to be seen soon."

"Let's go."

Having fought a battle, the appearance of the Small Snow Squad mbers soaked in fatigue was visible.

Thinking we should arrive quickly, we began to follow the disciples of Diancang.

***

"Sect Leader! Sect Leader!"

The Elder of the Diancang Sect, Baek Ri-gung, ran urgently to the Sect Leader's office.

"What is the matter?"

"They say the second-generation disciples who were dispatched to Kunming were attacked by the Poison Palace."

The Sect Leader of the Diancang Sect, Jang Il-jae, shouted upon hearing the news.

"What? So?!"

"They say they survived safely and are climbing Diancang Mountain!"

"That is fortunate, there must not have been many poison n in the Poison Palace, right?"

"They say it exceeded a hundred."

"What... surely the second-generation disciples went to Kunming, are you saying the four of them defeated all hundred or so?"

Baek Ri-gung shook his head.

"They say they are climbing Diancang Mountain together with the masters of the Ice Palace."

"Ice Palace?"

"Suddenly?"

"I was surprised too. But a matter more surprising than that is."

"The matter is?"

"They say the Divine Physician is climbing Diancang Mountain together to et the Sect Leader."

At the word Divine Physician, Jang Il-jae's expression hardened.

There was only one reason the Divine Physician would co to et the Sect Leader.

"I will have to go out to greet them."

Jang Il-jae walked to the main gate of the Diancang Sect and recalled the past days.

He entered Diancang, wandered the Jianghu.

Ca back to Diancang again and strove to beco the Sect Leader.

In the midst of that, there was a ti he went to Namman.

-Are you the next Sect Leader of Diancang?

-If I am?

-Keuk!

He was injected with poison by a master of the Poison Palace.

It was a situation where it wouldn't be strange if he died anyti.

"Brother Jang. If I save you now, will you grant one wish later?"

Jang Il-jae had no choice but to nod.

Thud, thud, thud.

And,

The person who saved Jang Il-jae that day had not used that wish until now.

"It has been a long ti."

"You have aged a lot."

"That is the sa for you."

Jang Il-jae, who had now beco the Sect Leader of the Diancang Sect, t the Divine Physician, Seong I-han, again.

***

That person is...... the Sect Leader of Diancang.

Azure Sea Gentleman, Jang Il-jae.

"We greet the Sect Leader."

"I heard there was an ambush, it is fortunate you returned safely."

Jang Il-jae answered Baek Ri-geuk's clasped hands greeting.

"We were able to survive because the people of the Ice Palace helped us."

At the story of the Ice Palace, Jang Il-jae's gaze turned to the side.

"I am called Seol Ye-rin, the Young Palace Head of the North Sea Ice Palace."

Seol Ye-rin offered a greeting modestly.

"For what matter, did you co all the way here from the Ice Palace......."

"Let's go inside first and talk."

"That would be good."

We moved locations.

Arriving at the Sect Leader's office, we were sitting while looking around the Sect Leader's office.

"First of all, thank you for helping our second-generation disciples."

Public is public.

Private is private.

The distinction between public and private seed clear.

"But, for what matter, did the Ice Palace co to Diancang?"

Naturally, my gaze turned to the Divine Physician.

Accordingly, Jang Il-jae's gaze also reached the Divine Physician.

"As expected... Did you co to use that?"

"That is so."

"Is it a difficult request?"

"No, it is an easy request."

It was fortunate that it was an easy request.

"What request is it?"

"Please listen to the words of this Young Master."

"You, what did you say your na was?"

Only then did Jang Il-jae begin to look fully at .

"I am called Hyeokryeon Yeom."

"Your status?"

"I am the live-in son-in-law of the Ice Palace."

"Live-in son-in-law?"

I didn't ntion the point that I was from the Demonic Cult.

"...Hmph, okay. Let's say that's so, what is the request you want to make to ?"

"We plan to strike the Poison Palace soon."

"What? The Ice Palace is striking the Poison Palace?"

"No, rather than a fight between the Ice Palace and the Poison Palace, we intend to take revenge on the Poison Palace with just these personnel."

"But?"

"We intended to receive Diancang's help."

"To summarize, do you an you want Diancang to beco a military force in the fight between the Ice Palace and the Poison Palace?"

After weighing things up, it ca to sound like that.

I made a troubled expression.

To gain the upper hand in such a negotiation, the clear direction must be the sa.

But as we talked, it kept becoming a shape where Diancang was intervening.

'I got completely swept up.'

As expected, a Sect Leader was a Sect Leader.

The possibility that the answer would be a refusal was high.

"I will help."

"Yes?"

"Didn't you use the token? It was a matter I should have helped with from the beginning. However, I just wanted to hear it directly from you. In the end, since people only hear what they want to hear, whether you are a small organization within the Ice Palace or not, it will appear as the shape of the Ice Palace attacking the Poison Palace. Then this will be known as a war breaking out in the Outer Region Murim. And it will be conveyed to gossip that Diancang helped in that war."

Even if he bears all that.

The Sect Leader ant he would help our party.

"However, the one helping is not Diancang, but alone."

I was expecting this.

Just because he beca the Sect Leader of the Diancang Sect, I didn't think all the military power of the Diancang Sect could be mobilized through the token.

"Sect Leader, if you say that, it is disappointing again."

The Elder of the Diancang Sect, Baek Ri-gung, who was listening quietly, opened his mouth.

"Elder Baek Ri?"

"If the disciples know that the Sect Leader went alone to deal with the Poison Palace, would they really like it?"

"But......."

"Actually, didn't we have to give the Poison Palace a scolding soti anyway?"

At Baek Ri-gung's words, lightning flashed in my mind.

"Then how about doing it like this?"

"Hm?"

"Diancang scolded the Poison Palace which continuously invaded Yunnan. And how about the way that the Ice Palace helped with that?"

"...You will turn the rit to us?"

"That is correct."

Actually, what was important to wasn't the Poison Palace being ruined, but the recognition that Diancang ford a friendly relationship with the Ice Palace.

Only by increasing them one by one like this.

'Later when the Demonic Cult strikes the Ice Palace, we will be able to receive the help of more people.'

The Sect Leader of the Diancang Sect, Jang Il-jae, began to seriously review my proposal.

***

After guiding the party that ca from the Ice Palace including Hyeokryeon Yeom to the reception hall.

Jang Il-jae, Baek Ri-gung, and Seong I-han sat facing each other.

"Brother Seong, how did you co to yield my token to a guy like that?"

"He saved my granddaughter."

"Aha, if it's such a thing, it couldn't be helped."

"That is so. How does it look to you who beca the Sect Leader of Diancang?"

"What part......?"

"Just a while ago, that guy's proposal."

Actually, Jang Il-jae was already thinking of accepting my proposal.

Diancang beca the main and brought down the Poison Palace of Namman, because it was sothing worthy of becoming a hero of Yunnan.

However, he couldn't reveal these inner thoughts as they were.

"I heard Mount Hua also ford a friendly relationship with the Ice Palace. Is it true?"

"Yes. Instead, the relationship with Zhongnan went wrong."

"Then......."

"Depending on how the Ice Palace acts in the future, it could beco good or bad."

However.

Jang Il-jae also looked at .

"Looking at that friend, truly many thoughts occur."

Like the saying that the front waves of the Yangtze River push the back waves.

The two people were feeling that the tis were changing.

"We have aged."

"If it were us full of spirit in the past, could we have had such thoughts?"

"I do not know that. However, we probably wouldn't have told them to wait lukewarmly like this."

"That must be so. Then it seems the decision is made. Tell what sche it is again."

"Since we have heard all the talk, now is the ti to check the skills."

In those words, the Divine Physician made an expression of 'no way'.

***

Diancang Sect Reception Hall.

Until the eting of the Sect Leader and the Divine Physician ended, the party stayed in the reception hall.

"When will it end?"

"Well. Looking at it, it seed like it would get long."

Everyone was sitting on chairs resting, or closing their eyes and ditating, or touching their weapons, but only I and Seol Ye-rin were talking.

"And it's my thought, but I think there is one more thing left to check."

"Check, you say?"

"We did block the Poison Palace's ambush. But the Sect Leader didn't see it directly, right?"

"That is right."

"Then he has to check."

I got the thought that even if it were , I would have done so.

"Yes? What do you an?"

"I an he will want to check my skill, or all of our skills."

-Kekeke, it seems the prediction hit exactly? Here they co.

-But if it becos like this, shouldn't we beco colleagues with them?

At the words of the Sword Venerable and the Demon Queen, I nodded.

"Everyone prepare for battle."

"Yes?"

"Ahem. I was sleeping well."

"Who are we fighting?"

"Does Mu-myeong... fight... too?"

"Small Snow Squad should be enough."

The number of guys who were enemies yet allies approaching the reception hall was felt through energy sensing.

"I stopped by after hearing the story to co find you here. I am called Ok In-gi, a first-generation disciple of the Diancang Sect."

"I am Hyeokryeon Yeom. What is the matter?"

"Please go to the training ground all together right now. The Sect Leader wishes to see the skills of the Ice Palace."

The prediction hit properly.

The Small Snow Squad mbers stood up from their seats one by one.

In the Ice Palace, since they are operated as a unit to escort the Young Palace Head, the recognition of the Small Snow Squad is on the low side.

But I, the Captain, knew their skills better than anyone.

On top of that, the Small Snow Squad mbers who even went through the Training Cave.......

'They will probably fit perfectly in the Sect Leader's heart.'

Our party began to move towards the training ground of the Diancang Sect.
