The Youngest Member of the Martial Alliance Chapter 193

Beili Tian, Sima Hui, and Cheon Woojin.

The three sat in the office and talked about various things for a while. It was mostly about the future changes of the Demonic Cult.

By the ti the tea on the tea table had cooled.

Cheon Woojin, who had been listening the whole ti, opened his mouth.

"I have sothing to tell you two."

At the sa ti, the feel of the air changed slightly.

Tension appeared on the faces of the Alliance Leader and the Chief Strategist. It was because it was the first ti Cheon Woojin had started a conversation in this way.

"S-speak comfortably."

"The Alliance Leader is right. We are not difficult people to you."

Although they said so, they looked more uncomfortable themselves.

Regardless, Cheon Woojin, who had nodded, asked in a comfortable tone.

"What is my weakness?"

"...?"

A question appeared on the faces of the two.

*He's asking this all of a sudden?*

By the ti they could not answer, Cheon Woojin's words continued.

"The Alliance Leader is a great martial artist who leads the Orthodox Path martial world, and the Chief Strategist has the highest insight in the world. You two must have already grasped my weaknesses."

In that short mont, the Alliance Leader and the Chief Strategist t eyes.

Both seed to be thinking similar things.

"T-that's right."

"Of course."

Since Cheon Woojin was so insensitive, they had not known that he would think so highly of them.

The two thought more busily than ever before. They could not think of any weakness of the person nad Cheon Woojin.

But when they t his expectant eyes, as if he naturally expected an answer, they could not say that they did not know.

And so, a brief, awkward silence flowed.

Cheon Woojin had a rare, tense expression. How big of a weakness was it that they were hesitating like this?

As far as he was concerned, he had no particular weaknesses.

His two masters, who could be called his only family, had already passed away, and even if they were alive, they would be a reliable strength, not a weakness.

"Ah! Woojin, you are too picky with your food!"

The Alliance Leader said so.

Cheon Woojin narrowed his eyes and looked at him.

The Chief Strategist next to him blushed as if he were embarrassed himself.

A blatant disappointnt appeared on Cheon Woojin's face. But as if he had developed so social skills after eting various people, he did not bother to say it out loud.

"I see. Picky eating."

When the words 'picky eating' ca out of Cheon Woojin's mouth again, the Alliance Leader now seed embarrassed and let out a dry cough.

Soon, Cheon Woojin's gaze turned to the Chief Strategist. Even if the Alliance Leader was like that, the Chief Strategist would surely give an answer.

The Second Young Master had said that the Fifth Young Master was a person who knew how to grab and shake the opponent's weaknesses, and had told him to be very careful. It was better to prepare in advance if there was anything he could prepare for.

"You have a very big weakness. Of course, if it weren't for , others would not have been able to grasp it. So, what it is, is..."

Sima Hui, who had been beating around the bush and dragging his feet, soon bowed his head slightly and said in a very quiet voice.

"You have no sense of direction."

"Yes?"

"You have no sense of direction. It's a very fatal weakness for a martial artist."

As if embarrassed, Sima Hui added a postscript.

However, Cheon Woojin's expression was serious.

It even looked a little grave.

"I see."

Cheon Woojin nodded his head repeatedly. Not being able to find the way could be a fatal weakness depending on the circumstances.

For example, what if a comrade was seriously injured during a battle, and he could not find the direction to the physician?

If his friend died because he was wandering around like a fool even though he knew where he was...

"It's a terrible weakness."

"Ah, no. It's not that bad..."

When Cheon Woojin blad himself, the Chief Strategist was rather surprised. He had just said what ca to mind, but he had not known that he would react so seriously.

"It's okay. I'll set aside a day and teach you how to read the constellations soon. Since you have a very outstanding talent for martial arts, you'll be able to master it completely in a day or two."

"Thank you."

Cheon Woojin's expression brightened. The learning that a person of the Chief Strategist's level taught was almost on the sa level as the teachings of the number one in the world in terms of martial arts.

In any case, as the awkward atmosphere was resolved, the Alliance Leader and the Chief Strategist also let out a sigh of relief.

In fact, the Alliance Leader and the Chief Strategist also blad themselves inwardly. It was true that Cheon Woojin was a precious junior. But as the leaders of an organization, they were embarrassed that they had not even thought about the weaknesses of a martial artist of Cheon Woojin's level.

The sudden question that had started from the Second Young Master of the Demonic Cult's remark had beco a great lesson for the three of them.

Soon, Cheon Woojin got up from his seat with a lightened face.

"Are you leaving already? The war will stop for a while, so why don't we talk more?"

The Alliance Leader showed a regretful expression.

To him, Cheon Woojin was a praiseworthy junior, but he was also a grateful being who allowed him to feel the senior he respected the most in the world again.

"I have a place to go for a while."

"Where?"

"The Black Plaque Star."

"..."

The Alliance Leader's expression beca serious again.

From the beginning, the Alliance Leader had been trying hard to make Cheon Woojin stay in the Martial Alliance. Moreover, there had recently been an incident where a guy called the Young Star Lord of the Black Plaque Star had co and spouted nonsense.

"W-why the Black Plaque Star?"

The Alliance Leader asked, pretending to be calm. Although the end of his voice trembled slightly without him knowing, he did not even realize it. He was that nervous.

Even the Chief Strategist suddenly opened his fan and covered his mouth, secretly catching his breath without Cheon Woojin knowing.

Cheon Woojin answered nonchalantly.

"We decided to stop by soon, didn't we? If a battle with the Demonic Cult breaks out again, the intervention of the Black Plaque Star will be a great help."

No matter how much of a master Cheon Woojin was, he could not traverse this wide land alone and save and kill everyone.

If a battle broke out again, soone would die again. Perhaps it would be those who had eaten from the sa pot as Cheon Woojin.

Cheon Woojin did not want his friends to shed blood.

* * *

The Alliance Leader and the Chief Strategist could not stop Cheon Woojin.

It was true that the relationship with the Black Plaque Star was very important, and above all, there was no way to stop Cheon Woojin's steps.

And so, Cheon Woojin, who had left the Martial Alliance, ran straight to the Black Plaque Star. It was not that far from Sichuan, where the temporary headquarters was located, to Hunan, where the Black Plaque Star's main headquarters was located.

However, no matter how close they were, since the size of one province was larger than most of the surrounding countries, it was not a distance that could be covered in one day.

Even Cheon Woojin could only arrive at the Black Plaque Star after the night had completely fallen.

Ha Inseong, who had co running as soon as he heard that Cheon Woojin had arrived, had a bewildered expression.

"No, you an you ran that distance all day?"

*Does this guy's internal energy spring up indefinitely?*

Such a thought ca to him for a mont.

He had also run quite hard when he had gone to the Martial Alliance, but it had been a journey of a full fifteen days.

"Yes. Is the Black Plaque Star Lord inside?"

*This guy doesn't even look tired after covering that distance.* Ha Inseong had a fed-up expression. If he had known that Cheon Woojin had taken a detour through Jiangxi after getting lost, he would have been surprised and fainted.

"He is. He's always here. Let's go in first."

When Ha Inseong gestured to the gatekeepers, the huge main gate of the Black Plaque Star's main headquarters opened with a heavy sound.

From the sound and vibration, which was like thunder, the dignity of the Black Plaque Star could be felt.

Nevertheless, Cheon Woojin was walking with an indifferent face as always.

The gatekeepers looked at such a Cheon Woojin with quite a hot gaze. The hot gaze continued even after he entered the Black Plaque Star. All the martial artists he t showed a similar look to Cheon Woojin.

Fighting spirit, respect, admiration, envy, jealousy, etc...

In fact, even Cheon Woojin, who had no sense of awareness, felt their gazes to be sowhat burdenso.

Ha Inseong chuckled next to him.

"It's different from when you ca before, isn't it?"

"Yes. Why are they like that?"

"Because you've changed."

Ha Inseong had a strange smile.

Anyway, the charm of this guy was that he was better than anyone in the world, but he himself did not realize it.

After the war between the righteous and the demonic broke out, while Cheon Woojin was only going back and forth between the battlefield and the Martial Alliance, various rumors had continued to spread outside.

Since the war between the Demonic Cult and the Martial Alliance was a very sensitive issue that would change the fate of the entire Central Plains, all the events that happened there were of interest to people.

Of course, the na that was ntioned the most in the rumors that spread on the wind was Cheon Woojin's na.

That Cheon Woojin had killed the Beast Palace Lord.

That Cheon Woojin had annihilated the Poison Valley.

That he had faced thousands of people alone, had killed the Ice Palace Lord, had killed the elders of the Demonic Cult and the Seven Demon Sect Leaders, and that three of the five young masters had died at his hands.

Of course, the last rumor was sothing that had happened recently, so it had only spread within the Martial Alliance. But since it was such an enormous story, it was clear that it would soon spread throughout the Central Plains.

Along with the rumors, Cheon Woojin's new nickna was often ntioned. A martial artist who stood shoulder to shoulder with the masters of Heaven Beyond Heaven, who were called the peak of each martial world, at the age of just over twenty.

The Martial God, Cheon Woojin.

The history of the martial world is long. Naturally, there were countless people who had obtained the nickna of 'god' among them. Demonic god, sword god, saber god, fist god, etc...

But there were less than five people who had obtained the nickna of Martial God. The aning that the na Martial God symbolized in the martial world was clear.

The first person to obtain the nickna of Martial God was a great man of the very old days who could be said to have created the current martial world. There was even a story that all the martial arts in the world had started from him or had been influenced by him.

Therefore, to dare to compare one's nickna with his was the sa as saying that there was no higher place to climb as a martial artist.

Beyond learning martial arts, a being that symbolized martial arts itself. That was the Martial God, and for that reason, there were many who could not yet acknowledge Cheon Woojin as the Martial God.

Although it was clear that he was a talent who would beco the Martial God in the future, he was called the next number one in the world or the Little Martial God, aning that he could not yet surpass the Martial Alliance Leader or the Black Plaque Star Lord.

Considering that he was only just over twenty, this was also a truly surprising thing.

Ha Inseong, who had been explaining this at length, suddenly said.

"It's a sad thing. Even so, there were sotis people who called a talent who would beco the number one in the world in the future, but now there's not a single one."

Ha Inseong smacked his lips. In any case, he had also been famous for having inherited the bloodline and talent of the Black Plaque Star Lord.

Perhaps the young masters of the Five Great Families, the great disciples of the Nine Sects, and the young masters of the Demonic Cult would also feel a similar emotion to him.

"How do you feel?"

Ha Inseong asked, sowhat sullenly.

Cheon Woojin shook his head.

"I have no particular thoughts. What aning does being number one in the world have?"

Perhaps he would have to face the one who was called the number one in all of history. Cheon Woojin had said so with that aning, but sotis, a serious concern could sound like a deception to soone.

"Wow! You're really a jerk."

Although he said so, Ha Inseong was laughing continuously as if sothing were so funny.

And so, as they were laughing and talking, a staircase guarded by two wolf statues appeared.

The huge hall connected to the staircase was the place where the master of all the Unorthodox Paths of the Central Plains lived.

As the two approached, the huge door surprisingly opened on its own. Through the door, which opened with considerable dignity and grace, a large wolf painting that filled the entire front wall and a lonely man sitting on the throne in front of it were revealed.

Cheon Woojin looked at the sight with wonder and asked.

"The door... is there so kind of device?"

"No, my father is just trying to look cool and opened the door with his telekinesis. He's doing it more because you're here."

The Black Plaque Star Lord, who had been bowing his head and deliberately creating an atmosphere of a lonely wolf, flinched.
