Chronicles of the Lazy Sovereign Novel - Chapter 424

**Chapter 424: The Loafer Extorts (4)**

“Ryeo-gun!”

Uil shouted when she saw So Ryeo-gun being taken away by someone.

The appearance of her sister, whom she hadn’t seen in a year, was pitiful. (Note: Yes, Uil’s sibling is female)

She looked malnourished, and hadn’t grown much for her age. Her wandering eyes showed her anxiety.

Uil ran forward without realizing it.

She knew she shouldn’t act impulsively. The situation was under Wei Yanho’s control. Creating variables was not good.

But that was just a thought.

Her body ran towards So Ryeo-gun.

The Jegal family warriors blocked Uil.

“Step back.”

“I…”

“I told you to step back.”

When she saw those cold eyes, Uil weakened. She couldn’t defeat them.

“Ryeo-gun!”

Just as she was about to stomp her feet in impatience, So Ryeo-gun raised her head:

“…Sister?”

Even though she was wearing a mask, blood doesn’t lie.

Even though they hadn’t seen each other in a year, So Ryeo-gun seemed to recognize Uil. Tears appeared in her eyes.

“Sister!”

“Ryeo-gun!”

As the two sisters got closer, Jegal Jongmyeong frowned:

“Are you not listening to me?”

When he released his internal energy, So Ryeo-gun’s face filled with fear. Uil could only watch…

“It’s a reunion, why not let them meet? Are you so heartless?”

At that moment, a calm voice resonated behind them.

Jegal Jongmyeong was surprised and turned his head. Wei Yanho was behind him, yawning.

“Step aside.”

“N… no…”

“I said, step aside!”

“……”

Jegal Jongmyeong gritted his teeth and stepped back.

He knew who the man was. Everyone there would know.

Even though he was wearing a mask, he was recognizable.

There are many people in the world, but only one would dare to act like this in the Jegal family.

‘What is the elder thinking?’

He let go of that guy, who deserved to die, and went up to the building to talk to him.

Even though the elder must have a long-term vision, he couldn’t understand it.

Wei Yanho took So Ryeo-gun’s hand and led her in front of Uil.

“I brought her.”

“Ah…”

Uil reached out, took So Ryeo-gun’s shoulder, and pulled her close.

Then she hugged So Ryeo-gun.

“Ryeo-gun!”

“Sister!”

Even those who didn’t know the situation would be moved to see the two sisters reunited. Their desperation was evident.

But there was someone there without emotions.

“Reunite with her later. You don’t seem to understand the situation, we are still in enemy territory.”

“I’m sorry… sir.”

Uil regained her composure and straightened up. But she didn’t stop hugging So Ryeo-gun.

‘I’m not a spy.’

Uil knew she had made many mistakes.

Why?

Why was Uil, a promising spy, doing such foolish things?

Uil looked at Wei Yanho.

It’s because of him.

Someone with support and someone without support are not the same. Wei Yanho had become her support.

Even though he seems unreliable.

Thanks to Wei Yanho, she got her sister back, who was captive. That was something she couldn’t have done alone. She didn’t know what his intentions were, but it was obvious that she owed Wei Yanho a great debt.

‘If only we could escape…’

Was this the right decision?

Uil looked around her tensely. Although Wei Yanho had stopped the fight, they were surrounded by a strong group of warriors.

All the available warriors from the Jegal family had arrived. Could Wei Yanho escape from here?

‘Impossible.’

If the Jegal family only relied on their intelligence, they wouldn’t be a great clan. Even if they are not as powerful as other great clans, they have enough strength.

Even if they can’t use formations, they wouldn’t be a great clan if they could be easily defeated by a single person.

It seemed impossible to escape unless the grandmaster returned.

“Well, then…”

Wei Yanho looked around him and whistled:

“It’s a dangerous atmosphere. It looks like they’re coming with their swords. Am I seeing things?”

“You are brazen.”

Jegal Jongmyeong gritted his teeth.

That was something that could only be said if you looked down on the Jegal family. If you are looked down upon, you must take revenge.

“I don’t know why you came here, but you better not think about returning unscathed. There are limits even for allies. Maybe you can survive. But forget about returning with your limbs intact.”

“You speak threateningly.”

Wei Yanho smiled:

“Allies? Do you know who I am?”

“This guy!”

Not only Jegal Jongmyeong, but also those around him were angry:

“I’ll teach you what courtesy is.”

“That’s impossible.”

Wei Yanho waved his hand:

“My father and my master have given it up. They said that since you can’t be a normal person, you must be good at fighting. So you won’t be treated like a fool.”

“……”

Jegal Jongmyeong looked at Wei Yanho without being able to say anything.

What master would say that? If he heard that from his master, how useless is that guy?

“So, I must verify.”

“Verify what?”

“If being good at fighting makes you be treated like a person. I haven’t been treated like a person. Neither my father, nor my mother, nor my brother treat me like a person. So…”

“Sir, if you continue…”

“Ah, right.”

Wei Yanho scratched his head when he heard Uil. He was hiding his identity…

“How complicated.”

Jegal Jongmyeong felt it was useless to continue talking to Wei Yanho.

“Elder, please allow me to do it. If you give me the order, I will turn him into an invalid and then hold his clan responsible. And I will also hold the Righteous Martial Alliance responsible.”

Jegal U looked at Jegal Jongmyeong and said:

“I will withdraw from this.”

“Huh?”

Jegal Jongmyeong looked at Jegal U in surprise. Jegal U, sitting on the eaves, said in a low voice:

“Literally. I won’t get involved anymore. Let him go or capture him, whatever you want.”

“Elder!”

Jegal Jongmyeong shouted.

What is he saying? The leader is giving up in this situation.

‘Who is in charge?’

When Jegal Jongmyeong was about to find the next in line, he heard a low voice behind him:

“Let’s capture him first and then decide.”

“I don’t know what the elder is thinking, but there is no other option. We must capture him first and then decide what to do.”

“The members of the Righteous Martial Alliance are overrated. Even Wei Sanho, with his Demon-Expelling Sword, was defeated. The rumors about Wei Yanho are exaggerated. Even if they are not, what changes? Even the Supreme Sovereign cannot escape from here.”

Those voices gave Jegal Jongmyeong courage.

‘They are right.’

They must first capture Wei Yanho. If he gives orders here, the situation will change. And perhaps Jegal Jongmyeong’s status would increase.

Jegal Jongmyeong, who had made a decision, raised his voice:

“Capture that guy…”

“The Supreme Sovereign?”

At that moment, Wei Yanho spoke.

He was probably annoyed by the claim that even the Supreme Sovereign couldn’t escape.

“These elders… don’t understand reality! What about the Supreme Sovereign?”

“……”

“They say that smart people are useless in reality, it seems they are right. They should see reality.”

Wei Yanho looked at Jegal U.

He understood why Jegal U made that request. Since they had only lived in Sichuan, they had become narrow-minded.

“I thought about doing it easily, but I can’t. I’ll show you who I am, learn well.”

“What are you saying…?”

Thud!

It sounded as if a water-filled wineskin was hit with a hammer.

Clear and powerful.

A heavy sound that makes people happy.

But no one smiled. Because that sound came from a person’s body.

It was the sound of Wei Yanho’s fist hitting Jegal Jongmyeong’s sternum.

“…Kgh.”

A sound as if air was escaping came from Jegal Jongmyeong’s mouth. But Wei Yanho raised his head and smiled:

“Let’s begin. Let’s verify if being good at fighting makes you be treated like a person.”

Wei Yanho’s eyes moved.

Crack.

A sound of bones twisting slowly came out. Everyone watched the scene in astonishment.

Wei Yanho’s eyes, which were facing backwards, quickly moved forward, hitting Jegal Jongmyeong.

“Kaaaaaaaah!”

Jegal Jongmyeong’s body spun like a top and flew forward. Those who were nearby were caught and screamed.

“Aaaaaah!”

“I’m trapped! Aaaaaah!”

More than ten warriors were caught and fell into the building.

RUUUUUUMBLE!

With a sound like thunder, the building collapsed.

Gulps.

Jegal U swallowed hard when he saw that:

‘I think I made a mistake.’

It was already too late.
