Chronicles of the Lazy Sovereign Novel - Chapter 181

**Chapter 181: The Holgazan Receives a Lesson (1)**

While Wei Yanho has caused a number of problems, it cannot be said that these problems have had a major impact on the martial world.

Wei Yanho causes trouble, but he’s someone totally passive, so no matter what happens, his reaction is extremely passive.

For the martial world, that was lucky.

Imagine if that guy was causing trouble everywhere. That would be a catastrophe that could not even be described in words.

Huh?

So it’s not a lucky thing?

Yeah, well, he’s lucky, but if things had gone so well, would Wei Yanho have gotten the extravagant and absurd title of Radiant Martial Sovereign?

At best, he would have been known as the Perizzian King of Guangdong.

I don’t know if it was a misfortune or a fortune for Wei Yanho, but the martial situation of that time was not peaceful.

As you know, the demonic cult was beginning to show its presence in the darkness.

In Sichuan, the Righteous Heavenly Alliance was growing in power and was ready to face the Righteous Martial Alliance, and in the east, the Fortress of the One Hundred Swords was spreading its influence.

A powder keg about to explode.

Yeah, that’s the perfect description.

There was too much tension.

If Wei Yanho had existed or not, the martial world would have fallen into chaos eventually. Nasan’s incident was an omen.

But why was there so much peace?

The reason is simple.

It was thought that the cult, having lost its leader, would take a long time to find a new leader. It was thought that the Righteous Heavenly Alliance, even if it united its forces, would not rival the Righteous Martial Alliance, and the Hundred Swords Fortress was considered a new organization that would only have a brief period of glory.

At the time, they didn’t know.

How long the cult had been preparing, how strong the Righteous Heavenly Alliance was, and who was behind the Hundred Swords Fortress.

What?

Isn’t it the Beggar sect that collects that information?

Incompetence?

Don’t you want to hear the story?

“Can’t you keep your hands up properly?”

Wei Yanho was kneeling in a corner of the room, with his hands raised above his head.

“What have you been doing so that this gentleman, Jo Hyeon, has fallen ill because of an illness from anger?! What?”

Wei Jeonghan rebuked him.

‘I think this happened before I left home…’

He felt a sense of déjà vu, but it was not that this had happened before he left home, but that this always happened when he was home.

He had suffered for five years, but nothing had changed.

“But…”

Wei Yanho spoke timidly.

“What?”

“…Then, Father, you don’t know what I did wrong either, so you’re just scolding me.”

“…….”

“No, I’m not protesting… I just thought about that while listening, it’s not that I don’t want to be punished. So…”

Wei Jeonghan’s body trembled.

His son, whom he hadn’t seen in five years, was five times as clever as he used to be.

“Ugh…”

Wei Jeonghan rubbed his face.

His cheeks hurt where Jo Hyeon had hit him.

‘That gentleman…’

Normally, one would be angry with the person who hit him, but seeing Jo Hyeon, his oldest and dear friend, so angry, felt sorry instead of anger.

“Where’s mother?”

“Your mother went to a room to rest and wash.”

“……and brother?”

“Your brother went to find the students!”

“Well, it’s a shame, but that means there’s no one in the world who can help me now.”

“It’s lucky.”

“Hmm…”

Wei Yanho scratched his head.

“Can’t you keep your hands up properly?”

Wei Yanho raised his hands again and yawned.

‘Should I pretend to be tired?’

Although he was receiving the same punishment as before, the difference was that Wei Yanho now had a body that did not get tired even after having his hands raised for seven days.

Before, she felt back pain and her arms trembled after only half an hour, but now her body was too resilient to feel pain and regret with this punishment.

“Why did you come here? Can you leave the house like this?”

“I came to catch you! You!”

Wei Jeonghan opened her eyes.

The father’s heart, who had to pursue his son instead of having a touching reunion after five years of searching, was not at peace.

“Ugh…”

Wei Jeonghan covered his face when he saw Wei Yanho yawning with his hands up.

This wasn’t what I planned…

When his son disappeared, he had promised that he would embrace him with love even if he did not get out of bed for a month.

But scolding him and punishing him immediately after seeing him was not correct.

“…… put your arms down.”

Wei Yanho lowered her arms, smiled and looked at Wei Jeonghan.

“Hmm.”

As they say you can’t scold someone who’s smiling, it seemed like he was back to being adorable.

“What have you been doing all this time?”

“I would prefer to count it when everyone is here. Everyone must listen to it.”

“Hmm…”

Wei Jeonghan nodded.

“Then, as I have already been punished…”

“Huh?”

“I will sleep until everyone arrives. Please call me for dinner.”

“Hahahaha.”

Wei Jeonghan smiled kindly, and Wei Yanho smiled back.

It was the first time father and son smiled like that in five years.

“Hold your arms up again.”

“…yes.”

Wei Yanho had never had a good relationship with his father.

Although it would not be made public, Wei Yanho’s riot at the Righteous Martial Alliance, called “Wei Yanho’s Alboroto” in Jo Hyeon’s mind, was over.

Jo Hyeon was finally able to get out of bed and get back to work.

“Hoo.”

Jo Hyeon’s expression changed as he enjoyed the aroma of tea.

He was about to think that it was all over, but a feeling of restlessness grew in his heart.

‘Can I control it?’

Wei Jeonghan could control it now, but there was no guarantee that he could do it in the future. First, although Wei Jeonghan is Wei Yanho’s father, he cannot follow and care for him. That would be difficult for Wei Yanho, but also for Wei Jeonghan.

In addition, Wei Jeonghan, the Sword of the Righteous Hero, should be at its peak. He had already lost five years due to the disappearance of his second son, and could not waste any more time chasing Wei Yanho.

Second, Jo Hyeon realized that Wei Yanho was someone Wei Jeonghan could not control. Now, as they had met after a long time, and there was a pre-existing relationship, Wei Yanho obeyed it, but there was no guarantee that it would continue.

A son who has overcome his father often wants to free himself from his father’s control.

“What to do.”

His head hurt.

He wanted to get rid of Wei Yanho by sending him to Guangdong, but considering his power, he couldn’t just ignore it.

That would be the worst decision.

“Officer.”

Jo Hyeon turned his head when he heard a voice from outside.

“What’s going on?”

“The leader wants to see you.”

Jo Hyeon rose immediately.

“Please invite him!”

As he said that, his body moved toward the door. When Sima Cheonse (), the leader of the Righteous Martial Alliance, entered, Jo Hyeon bowed his head.

“If you have something to say, you can send me a message. I feel ashamed that you came all the way here.”

Sima Cheonse smiled kindly.

“Hahahaha, everyone knows that the officer is more busy than me, a lazy man cannot give orders to someone busy.”

“S… sit here.”

Jo Hyeon offered Sima Cheonse the best seat and served tea.

Sima Cheonse smelled the tea, took a sip and left it.

“Well, how do you feel?”

“It’s not a serious illness…”

“I heard the officer was recovering, so I came right away. Officer, the Righteous Martial Alliance still needs you. Your body doesn’t belong to you alone, so you must always take care of it.”

“I’ll keep that in mind.”

“Well, then.”

Sima Cheonse smiled and said:

“How about I hear why our officer got sick?”

Jo Hyeon sighed when he saw Sima Cheonse looking at him as if he already knew everything.

“That boy?”

“That’s right.”

“How strange. If we consider Jeonghan and Sanho, the Wei family tends to be serious. Although Jeonghan is a bit carefree, it is strange that two brothers of the same mother have such different personalities.”

“It’s not a unique case…”

“In addition, the Wei family is a famous warrior family in Central Plains. Although Jeonghan is careless, they must have a family tradition, it’s hard to understand that his son is so lazy.”

You can’t judge that guy with common sense.

Jo Hyeon sighed repeatedly. “I had not been careful in judging Wei Yanho.

“Hmm, interesting. So Wei Jeonghan is in the Righteous Martial Alliance?”

“Yes, it is.”

“Hmm…”

Sima Cheonse’s eyes began to shine like a child’s.

Jo Hyeon smiled bitterly at seeing that. He seemed to be planning a prank. Sima Cheonse, despite her imposing title, still retained her childish nature.

Or perhaps, thanks to that childish nature, he was the leader of the Righteous Martial Alliance, where so many geniuses competed.

“Let’s make an excuse. I want to meet him in person.”

“Do you need an excuse to meet Wei Jeonghan?”

“Wei Jeonghan, I can see it whenever I want.”

“E… then?”

“It looks like it’s gonna be fun. I want to see Wei Yanho. Then I’ll know the answer.”

“…… shouldn’t you think again?”

“Have you ever seen him change his mind?”

“No.”

Jo Hyeon closed his eyes tightly.

‘Well, maybe it’s a good thing. Who else could control it?’

Although he thought this decision could lead to a bigger problem, Jo Hyeon did not give up his last hope.
