Chronicles of the Lazy Sovereign Novel - Chapter 230
**Chapter 230: The Holgazan is Submitted (5)**
“C… of course.”
If Wei Jeonghan nodded without much thought because of his conviction, or if it was because of the imposing presence of Wei Yanho, we do not know, but Wei Jeonghan nodded frantically.
Look at that look.
If he said “It was a joke” here, Wei Yanho would beat him mercilessly. With the determination not to turn his son into a pariah, Wei Jeonghan squeezed his teeth.
“Really, I won’t bother you!”
“Half a year?”
“Yes! Half a year!”
Wei Yanho’s eyes trembled.
Half a year.
Since he matured, he had never spent so much time without complaints. Even that time was possible only when he was separated from his family after leaving the cave. Now, if he did not receive complaints at least once a day, he suspected that he would grow spikes in his ears.
But half a year…
‘Paradise?’
It was such a radical condition that I suspected I could reach enlightenment if I lived there. Especially now, with so many people trying to take advantage of it, and with all of them pushing Wei Jeonghan, six months was something incredible.
“Really?”
“Have you ever seen your father lie?”
“Many times.”
“I, I never, damn it!”
“Shall I tell you all?”
“…….”
“Even though I didn’t say it, I couldn’t help but be surprised to see my father say good things outside. To be honest, my father has lied many times.”
“……not this time.”
Wei Jeonghan’s voice lacked strength.
If he had known this, he should have been more honest.
“Hmm.”
It’s true…
Is it true?
Wei Yanho’s body trembled.
It may be nothing for others, but for Wei Yanho, there is no better bait than this.
“Are you lying to me?”
“No!”
“I don’t believe you…”
Wei Jeonghan looked into the sky.
Damn it, the sky was clear.
What’s the point of being a great hero or the bearer of the Sword of the Righteous Hero if you can’t even earn your son’s trust?
“Hahahaha, if you don’t believe me, we can have witnesses.”
At that time, a soft voice resounded, and a monk from Sunpungdogol approached.
“Huh?”
Wei Yanho said when he saw the monk:
“Grandfather, have you come too?”
“Hahahaha, yes, I have come. We know each other, don’t we?”
Wei Yanho nodded, and Wei Jeonghan looked at the old man with a stunned expression, and then trembled.
His heavenly appearance, his black robe, and the symbol on his chest…
‘Tai Chi?’
It’s from Wudang.
That was not surprising. Normally, it would be strange to see a Wudang monk in Mount Hua, but now the tournament is taking place.
All the famous clans of the martial world are participating, so it would not be strange if a monk from Wudang had come with his disciples. That was not what surprised him.
The old man’s appearance reminded him of someone.
“E… are you?”
Wei Jeonghan did not realize that he was being rude. Normally, one should greet an old man first, but he was too surprised.
“Are you the Tai Chi Sword Sage?”
The old man nodded.
“That’s what they call me.”
“Hey!”
Wei Jeonghan covered his mouth.
Although he was already mentally prepared, he could not help but be surprised.
The Tai Chi Sword Sage.
‘Are there so many legendary swordsmen in this place?’
I understand that Plum Blossom Sword Saint is on Mount Hua, but it’s strange that Tai Chi Sword Sage appears suddenly.
Is there a meeting of the five best swordsmen in the world?
“Witnesses? What does that mean?”
The Plum Blossom Sword Saint rolled his head.
“Hahahaha, this boy says he doesn’t trust his father. If we have witnesses, won’t he believe it?”
“Oh?”
The Plum Blossom Sword Saint smiled.
“Good idea. Okay, the monk and the Tai Chi Sword Sage will be witnesses. If your father does not keep his promise, we will announce to the world that he has broken his promise.”
Wei Jeonghan, sweating cold, shook his hands.
“S… gentlemen, you don’t have to…”
“Why, you had no intention of fulfilling it?”
“…It’s not that.”
He couldn’t lie here. He really intended to fulfill it, at least in part.
‘Tsk.’
Wei Jeonghan licked his lips.
In fact, he had learned a lot from listening to Wei Sanho. Wei Yanho had not rested since he disappeared.
Now he realized that, after finding him, he had not let him rest.
‘I was too excited.’
He was worried that Wei Yanho might lose his skills. Even if he had learned the best martial arts in the universe, if he lived a sedentary life for a few months, he would become clumsy and weak.
But what does it matter?
He realized that what he wanted was a healthy and happy son, not the best warrior in the world.
‘But I didn’t want him to be forced to make a promise…’
Wei Jeonghan licked his lips with an uncomfortable expression, but the Plum Blossom Sword Saint said, as if he had already made a decision:
“I’ve heard clearly that you won’t bother him for six months if he wins.”
“Yes!”
“And after the tournament, you will fight with me.”
“I can do that.”
Wei Yanho smiled widely.
‘What luck.’
If you were guaranteed six months off, you could fight ten times. Would it take ten days?
“Then I just need to win.”
The Plum Blossom Sword Saint smiled sarcastically.
“Hmm.”
He thought about reprimanding him for speaking as if he had already won, but realizing that this guy was going to take part in the future leaders’ tournament was a strange thing.
‘Where did this monster come from?’
He did not even know the skill level of Wei Yanho. He had already exceeded the level he could judge with his eyes.
That’s already incredible. lt’s incredible. Even in the worst case scenario, it was the level of an old man from an ancient clan.
‘That sword.’
The Plum Blossom Sword Saint closed his eyes with amazement.
A seemingly simple move.
If he hadn’t paid attention, I would have thought he was a child practicing with little skill.
When he saw the first movement, he felt a pain in his chest, when he saw the second, he felt dizzy, and when he saw the third, the world trembled.
‘It’s not an illusion.’
Impossible.
It could be an illusion to him, but the Tai Chi Sword Sage also reacted similarly. He had known the Tai Chi Sword Sage for almost a hundred years, but had never seen him react like that… why say more?
That a guy like that takes part in a tournament…
The Plum Blossom Sword Saint could already see what was going to happen.
‘Now that I think about it, this is not good for ancient clans or sects, including Mount Hua…’
When the Plum Blossom Sword Saint was about to speak, Wei Yanho turned.
“Huh?”
The Plum Blossom Sword Saint called Wei Yanho with a stunned expression.
“Where are you going?”
“Huh? I’m going to rest.”
“Rest?”
Wei Yanho turned his head and smiled widely.
“Yes. Now that I am six months old, I must rest.”
“But the result has not yet come out.”
“Woe.”
Wei Yanho shook his hand. “There was no doubt on his face.”
“Don’t worry. Hahahaha!”
Watching Wei Yanho walk away calmly, a sense of restlessness invaded him.
“…then I’ll leave.”
When Wei Jeonghan also left, the Plum Blossom Sword Saint looked at the Tai Chi Sword Sage with concern.
“I don’t know if I did right.”
“You did well.”
“But…”
The Plum Blossom Sword Saint was about to speak, but he shut up.
To say that ancient clans would suffer for the sincerity of this boy was not an easy thing to say, even among close friends.
It was too common and mundane for the Plum Blossom Sword Saint.
“I will let things go on.”
“The natural course…”
“The strong show their strength is not bad. If the others don’t know their place because this boy doesn’t show his strength, wouldn’t it be a bigger problem?”
“Hmm.”
He understood, but he couldn’t agree.
‘The gap is too great.’
When you see someone superior to you, if there is hope to reach it, you can strive, but if the gap is too great, you surrender.
And the difference between Wei Yanho and the other future leaders was too big.
“What kind of teacher trained that boy?”
“I don’t know. The world is vast and there are many hermits. One thing is certain…”
The Tai Chi Sword Sage left the phrase unfinished. He himself would know whether it was for lack of confidence or shame.
“If your teacher taught you ‘that sword’, it will not be beneath us.”
“Right.”
The Plum Blossom Sword Saint said enthusiastically:
“If your teacher is alive, I would like to ask for instructions.”
“Me too.”
But the look of Tai Chi Sword Sage was bleak.
At first, there was one, but it was divided into yin and yang, creating Tai Chi. That is the law of the world in which they live, and the starting point of the martial arts of Wudang.
‘Even the founder regarded the recreation of Tai Chi as the limit.’
Because it is something humans cannot do. Therefore, the founder believed that the harmony between yin and yang was the limit that humans could reach.
But Wei Yanho’s sword had gone further.
It is not a harmony between softness and strength, but a unity.
Not harmony, but coexistence.
Not harmony, but unity.
‘Infinite ()…’
Wei Yanho’s sword should be called “infinite”.
‘Impossible.’
It is a sword that has a beginning but not an end. It is just a journey to an unattainable place for a sword created by human hands.
But…
One in a thousand, one in ten thousand… if he could reach the end of that sword?
It’s unlikely, but what if I could?
So…
Everyone will see it.
The arrival of the true invincible warrior, who was believed not to exist.
