Chronicles of the Lazy Sovereign Novel - Chapter 170

**Chapter 170: The Holgazan Teaches (5)**

Jo Hyeon was in a good mood.

The sunlight coming through the window was warm, and the aroma of tea was exquisite.

‘I wish it were always like this.’

The martial world was not free of problems. Internal and external dissatisfaction was about to explode.

But was it something new? Since the beginning of the martial world, there has never been a time without conflict.

Even in places where people live in peace, there are problems, let alone in a place where sword warriors live together.

Therefore, Jo Hyeon was not very concerned about future problems. I knew that, to worry or not, the problems would come anyway.

What mattered most was that Wei Yanho had solved Nasan’s problem.

Like when the dust settles after a storm, the martial world had calmed down after the big problem in Nasan.

“Hmm.”

Jo Hyeon enjoyed the aroma of tea as he looked out the window.

‘If it weren’t for that scene, it would be even better.’

From his office in the high building, he could clearly see the crowd in front of the main entrance. Wei Yanho’s tent was full of people.

“Hmm…”

The original is authentic.

No, even if it wasn’t, it doesn’t matter.The analyses carried out by the Alliance experts had confirmed that it contained at least the essence of a supreme technique of an ancient sect, or even more.

Even if it wasn’t written by the Sword Emperor, selling such a valuable secret book for that price was almost giving it away. Copying the secret book didn’t change its value.

‘Did you plan it or was it a coincidence?’

Even for Jo Hyeon, who was known for his wisdom, it was difficult to understand how the situation had reached this point.

If Wei Yanho had sold the secret book at a reasonable price, he wouldn’t have made that much money.

There is a price limit that people are willing to pay for a secret book. Even if the real value is greater, people have psychological resistance.

But by selling it openly that way, it sparked competition.

Known sects had to pay a high price, even if they complained. They feared that rival sects could improve their skills if they studied the secret book of the Sword Emperor.

So, the Wudang sect spent a lot of money, and seeing that, Mount Hua also spent a lot of money, and seeing Mount Hua, the Gongdong sects and Qingcheng also paid. And when they found out that Shaolin had paid, Emei also came from the Emei mountain to buy a copy.

Several families were also sending their agents in secret.

What if Wei Yanho had sold the secret book normally?

I’m sure he wouldn’t have made a tenth of the money he made.

‘He is intelligent…’

By using the Righteous Martial Alliance to sell the secret book, knowing there could be a violent reaction, it demonstrates his intelligence.

But did you really foresee all this?

“Exceptional martial abilities and an amazing mind…”

He’s a talent, a future leader.

If the current generation were to withdraw, the future of the martial world could be in the hands of Wei Yanho. Jo Hyeon could not help thinking about how exceptional Wei Yanho was.

“Anyway, it was a good decision.”

Keeping that kid busy making money and tying him up to the Academy of the Down Dragon… what better business is there?

The Righteous Martial Alliance lost nothing.

If they could get the help of such a powerful expert in exchange for lending their yard, no one would reject that deal.

‘But…’

In general, it was a very successful deal, and it solved a persistent problem, so it should feel good. Although it was, I felt a strange restlessness.

‘Is there anything I haven’t considered?’

At that moment, a low voice rang from the outside.

“Officer, this is Seok Muncho. Can I come in?”

“Of course.”

Jo Hyeon responded with a smile.

The door opened and Seok Muncho entered.

“Welcome, senior instructor. Is there a problem at the academy?”

Seok Muncho looked at Jo Hyeon with an unusual expression.

“That’s why I came…”

Jo Hyeon’s breezing frowned slightly. He sensed that there was a problem with Seok Muncho’s tone.

“…… looks like you should go there in person.”

“In person?”

Jo Hyeon thought when he had visited the Academy of the Down Dragon for the last time. Not this year, the last time was last year when he gave a greeting speech for the new students.

Although the education of future leaders is important, it had more important issues.

“Do you think I really need to go?”

“Yes.”

Seok Muncho responded with confidence.

“I can do nothing for the orders we receive.”

Hearing that, Jo Hyeon decided to go to the Academy of the Down Dragon.

Their most recent order related to the academy was not to interfere with Wei Yanho’s teaching method.

‘What have you done?’

Unfortunately, Jo Hyeon’s thinking was completely wrong.

Wei Yanho had done nothing wrong.

I just didn’t do anything.

“……What is this?”

“What you see.”

Jo Hyeon looked at the training camp with astonishment.

The Academy of the Down Dragon could be defined in several ways. A place where future leaders of the martial world meet, form friendships and compete, and a place where rival sects, who are always fighting, can interact through their children and reduce their hostility.

But the most important thing is that the Academie of the Agrowed Dragon is an educational institution. Its real purpose is to educate the future leaders of the martial world and guide them on the right path.

But…

In Jo Hyeon’s eyes, total freedom was spreading.

Carefully selected talents. Even among them, the talents selected through an evaluation were playing in the training field.

“C… how did this happen?”

Some were chatting and laughing in groups. But that was the least bad thing. The students were making up, and in the deepest part of the field, some were playing dice for money.

“Given?”

Given in a sacred place of education!

Are those gold ounce bets?

Although some were practicing with their weapons, it would be better if there were no one.

It is said that in the beginning there was chaos, and this was chaos.

“What has the instructor done to make this happen?”

“Look there…”

Jo Hyeon opened his mouth when he saw the place Seok Muncho pointed out. There was a large bed on the stand, and a large larvae on the bed.

No.

Looking at it closely, it was not a larva, but a person wrapped in a blanket.

“Why is there a bed there?”

“He said he wanted one.”

“…What are you doing in bed?”

“It looks like he’s sleeping.”

“Do you think I’m asking you about that?”

Jo Hyeon rewrote himself. “He had to find out why the class, with the best talents in the academy, had ended like this!”

Jo Hyeon walked to the stand.

“Who is it?”

“E… it’s the officer! The officer!”

“Hieek!”

Realizing the presence of Jo Hyeon, the students began to clean the place in haste. The blankets flew in the air, and the dice flew out.

‘At least finish what you were doing, you bastards!’

Jo Hyeon squeezed his teeth. “However, he made an effort not to look at the students. If he did, he would lose his composure.

As he approached the stand, he called Wei Yanho with a rough voice.

“Young Wei Yanho!”

♪ Wiggle. ♪

The larva moved.

“It’s me! Jo Hyeon! What are you doing?”

The part of the larva’s head moved, and a black head came out of the blanket.

‘At least wash your face!’

Wei Yanho, with her hair cluttered and her eyes swollen by sleep, responded with her eyes narrowed.

“What’s going on?”

Jo Hyeon’s heart sank.

* * *

“…… you mean Jo Hyeon, the Master of Divine Abilities?”

“That’s right.”

Gwang Gusin Gye, the Mendigo, let go of a little laugh, even he found it funny.

“A hero of this era who accomplished great feats in the battle against the demonic cult and solved the problem of the west with his strategy. But he met Wei Yanho at the end of his life.”

“It’s incomprehensible.”

“What?”

Gwang Gusin Gye shook his head at the question of Saha, the Historian.

“I have studied the Master of Divine Abilities a lot, Jo Hyeon. It is said that his wisdom is incomparable. Why could he not foresee this situation?”

“Good question.”

Gwang Gusin Gye nodded repeatedly.

“I thought the same thing too.”

“Huh?”

“When I entered the Righteous Martial Alliance, I heard about this incident. I also thought the same thing at that time. After thinking, I came to a conclusion.”

“Please tell me. Why?”

“First, Gong Mujin.”

“……The Plum Blossom Sword Spirit?”

“Well, it seems that he thought he was giving an objective explanation… as he has affection for Wei Yanho, he seems to have added some details. He knew that Wei Yanho had done something absurd, but he didn’t think it was for his laziness.”

“I don’t understand…”

“Think, what did Gong Mujin say? A young man with incredible martial skills defeated the Ghost and Sword Demons and got a secret book, and then sold it. He defeated everyone who opposed it. How about Wei Yanho?”

Saha couldn’t help but nod.

If it is summed up like this, Wei Yanho becomes a young man with great martial skills but a strange temperament.

“Key information is missing.”

“Right. But Elder Gong Mujin is also right. He must have given his best explanation. But…”

Gwang Gusin Gye smiled.

“Have you ever seen anyone with wings?”

“No.”

“That’s it.”

“Then explain to me in more detail…”

Gwang Gusin Gye laughed between his teeth.

“Is not Jo Hyeon, the Master of Divine Abilities? He is a gentleman and a strategist. Would he have imagined that someone as lazy as Wei Yanho would exist?”

“…….”

“The mistake of Elder Jo Hyeon was not to consider the possibility that the class would not work because the instructor was lazy. Hahahaha.”

“So the class failed?”

“No.”

“Then Elder Jo Hyeon…”

“Neither.”

Gwang Gusin Gye snapped his fingers and responded.

“The leash was approaching, the leash. Wei Yanho didn’t know.”

Saha, realizing that Gwang Gusin Gye was being lazy, got up. “It was time to drink.”

“Bring some food on the way.”

“…Yes.”

The price of knowing the truth was high. His bag was getting lighter and lighter.
