Chapter Index

    Everyone opened their eyes wide at the unexpected flow and paid attention to Zhuge Liang’s subsequent reaction.

    This is because the power structure surrounding the Five Dynasties will change depending on how Zhuge Liang reacts.

    But.

    “What’s the problem? Come here and sit down, Lady Namgung.”

    Ironically, it was Geumryongjangju who answered.

    Those who saw him were simply astonished at the words he spoke as if he were in control of the situation.

    The Zhuge Jing next to him was also equally absurd.

    ‘What kind of person is that… … .’

    It is polite and natural to ask for opinions while you are present.

    However, the author, Geumryongjangju, answered on his own as if it were something very obvious.

    Zhuge Jing was speechless.

    Zhuge Jing narrowed one eye and glanced at Zhuge Qingxia.

    It was to see his sister’s reaction to such rude behavior.

    however.

    “… … .”

    Zhuge Qinghai watched calmly as if nothing had happened.

    Do you want to say something but hold back and not show it?

    no.

    My sister was never that kind of person.

    The type of person who says what he wants to say no matter who the other person is.

    Wasn’t the lack of social skills due to that kind of personality to begin with?

    That means my little sister really doesn’t care.

    Zhuge Jing shook his head without realizing it, as if he was in shock.

    Meanwhile.

    “Then excuse me.”

    Namgung Hwa-ran joined the party.

    That too, right next to Bang So-woon.

    Suddenly, Bang So-woon became the lucky one who was stuck between two beauties.

    That too, among the daughters of the famous Odae family.

    The problem is.

    The fact is that Bang So-woon is a married man who has a wife and is a debaucher who even keeps a concubine.

    Yeah.

    Zhuge Jing barely managed to suppress an uncomfortable groan inside, perhaps because he was having trouble controlling his facial expressions.

    Although I felt quite uncomfortable, I couldn’t keep a straight face in a situation like this, even if it meant thinking about my younger sister’s position.

    ‘Your Majesty, in this difficult situation, what should I do…?’

    The sight of Jegal Gyeong searching for his ancestors for no reason was pitiful.

    ***

    The shock that Zhuge Jing received was completely different from the shock that others received.

    It was natural for Jegal Gyeong to only care about his younger sister, since the Jegal family had no special relationship with the Geumryongjeonjang and there was no secret agreement with the Namgung family.

    However.

    Others are not like that.

    Jegalga openly showed off that he had joined hands with the Yongbongjihoe and even brought in the Geumryongjangju.

    Did you drag Namgung Se-ga into it too?

    This is absolutely not an ordinary thing.

    It was an extremely unusual event.

    Especially to the Five Great Kings.

    -Sister, what on earth is going on!

    One of the tiger-like children that Peng Ga-ju is proud of, the fierce tiger sword Peng Eo-cheon sent out a sound like an angry tiger.

    The body of Peng-eo-cheon, who boasted the characteristically large physique of Peng-ga, shook as if it would jump up from its seat at any moment.

    -Why are you asking me that?

    The woman, resting her chin on the back of her hand, answered stiffly.

    A woman with a tall stature that is hard to believe is a woman’s body and amazing muscularity.

    But her face was like a painting, so it felt awkward.

    That woman was none other than Peng Eo-eon, the eldest daughter of the Peng family.

    A world-class talent who is considered to be one of the best among the later generations in terms of martial arts.

    However, her personality was as far removed from that of an ordinary young lady from a prestigious family.

    Because, unlike Zhuge Qingxia, he had a very straightforward personality.

    -Ah, no, but I think my sister might know something… … .

    As soon as Peng Eo-eon spoke, Peng Eo-cheon started to flinch.

    It was an instinct that came from painful memories of being constantly beaten by my older sister since I was little.

    -This is my first time seeing it here, so how do you know how it turned out like that?

    -Oh, I see.

    -Is it over once you know?

    -Oh, no, that’s… … .

    -If you have a brain, think about it. What does that mean?

    -That, that’s not Zhuge Liang’s open display of ambition.

    -What ambition?

    -To surpass Namgungga and take the leading position among the five great families.

    -But why is Namgung doing that over there?

    -Um, that’s… … .

    Paeng Eo-cheon scratched his head, seemingly speechless.

    No matter how much I thought about it, I couldn’t even guess why Namgung-ga was acting like that.

    -What are you muttering? Of course, Zhuge Liang would have given you something.

    Peng Eo-eon looked at him with a pitiful look.

    She looked like she had guessed something.

    -What are you going to give me…? What is that…?

    -I told you to think about it. If it were you, would you just give up the front seat if it was going to be taken by someone else anyway? Or would you give it up in exchange for something?

    -Hey, wait a minute, really… … ?

    Only then did Peng Eo-cheon begin to understand the situation and open his eyes wide.

    -Yeah, that’s right. Zhuge Liang must have been the first to make the move and give something.

    -Wow, what a clever bunch! That’s why they’re the ones who ate ink!

    The sound of the bell ringing became louder again, as if the fever had risen.

    But Peng Eo-eon was cold-hearted.

    As expected of someone from the Pang family with a fiery personality, she has a straightforward personality, but she also has the temperament to be infinitely cool-headed when she needs to be.

    That was the difference between Peng Eo-eon and Peng Eo-cheon, and the reason why Peng Eo-eon was always above his younger brother’s head.

    -No matter how cunning or what, in the end, the winner is the one who takes advantage. You know that, right?

    -That, that is… … .

    -So, instead of just getting angry for no reason, we should come up with a solution, right?

    -Ugh, Sister, what you said is right.

    Peng Eo-cheon was not a simple, ignorant person, so he readily accepted Peng Eo-eon’s words.

    They only acknowledged it, but did not take any measures.

    -But, what should we do… … . What about our conditions?

    -You stupid kid.

    -… … .

    -Do you think we can set conditions on our own? We have to do what we can.

    -What can you do…?

    -Of course, what is needed for a countermeasure is information first. Right?

    -Ah, that, that’s right… … .

    -So shouldn’t we go around and get some information? Since we’ve got a good spot.

    Peng Eo-eon’s eyes lit up in a strange way.

    Peng Eo-cheon blinked.

    -Uh, then who… … .

    -Can I leave such a big matter to a guy like you? Of course I’ll do it myself. You’re just a nuisance, so wait here.

    The Peng Eo-eon happened.

    ***

    -Damn, I never thought you would drag Namgung Se-ga into it.

    Tang Se-moon frowned.

    The Golden Dragon and the letter of recommendation that I thought were nothing special.

    I never dreamed that that letter of recommendation would rock this place.

    Who would have thought that this would be a sign of the unpleasant bond that would continue with the Jegal family and the Namgung family.

    -Ha, I didn’t know you’d be so quick to attack me. This family is annoying, considering it’s the family of Zhuge Liang, who was famous for his schemes.

    Dang Se-hwa clicked his tongue coldly.

    -I can’t just leave it alone.

    -of course.

    Their gazes were fixed on the group of Jegal, Namgung, and Geumryong, who were chatting so naturally as if they were nothing.

    But.

    Something was strange.

    It might be right to say it’s awkward.

    Tang Se-hwa recognized it.

    -But doesn’t something seem strange?

    -What are you talking about?

    -It’s Zhuge Liang. Why does it seem like he’s left out of the conversation? Of course, it’s right for him to take the lead.

    A triangle alliance led by Zhuge Liang.

    Naturally, it was right for Zhuge Jing, the head of the Zhuge family, to take the lead in that position.

    Because that was the location.

    But it didn’t look like that at all.

    Because only Jegal Qingha, Bang So-woon, and Namgung Hwa-ran talked, and Jegal Gyeong rarely opened his mouth.

    Dang Se-mun also seemed to have realized something strange after hearing his younger sister’s words.

    -Hmm, that’s true. Zhuge Jing is extremely quiet. That’s strange. It’s definitely strange.

    -Something smells bad.

    Tang Se-hwa’s eyes shone sharply.

    Like a beast that senses its prey’s weakness.

    -Isn’t this a crack?

    -Crack?

    -The bond isn’t complete yet.

    – Well, it can’t be perfect. After all, they’re all just a bunch of people who came together for their own benefit.

    The Tang Dynasty also revealed this.

    Because he was a beast of prey who could bite its weak points better than anyone else.

    -I can’t leave this untouched.

    -I agree. When do you move?

    -There’s no rush. Let’s just wait and see what happens…

    Tang Se-moon calmly waits for an opportunity.

    That was the cool judgment of a seasoned beast.

    But at that time.

    Another unexpected event occurred.

    -Ah, no, why is that long-legged woman moving?

    Tang Se-hwa was horrified.

    Because Peng’s Peng-eo-eon suddenly got up and was approaching the place where there was an eye-catching combination.

    Dang Se-mun also opened his eyes wide.

    -Seo, is it even Pengado?!

    Tang Se-moon’s breathing quickened as the terrible thought struck his mind.

    Even Peng Ga joins the Zhuge Family’s solidarity?

    There is nothing worse than that.

    Because this is the moment when the Tang family’s long-cherished wish to stand at the forefront of the Five Great Powers becomes almost impossible.

    -Oh, how could that be? What would be so disappointing about Pangga?

    Tang Se-hwa quickly denied it.

    The positions of Namgung Se-ga and Peng-ga, who are shaking, are completely different.

    It is a family that can sufficiently compete for the top spot among the five great families.

    Why on earth would a Peng family bow down to Zhuge Liang?

    -Yeah, that’s right. That’s probably true.

    Dang Se-mun also nodded belatedly.

    Because it is a picture that is, frankly, almost impossible.

    And that is what it is.

    -Are you saying there’s something up your sleeve?

    -Tch, we can’t lose either. Let’s move quickly.

    -Okay, I got it.

    Suddenly, Tang Se-mun and Tang Se-hwa throw away the cool, cold waiting of seasoned beasts and jump up.

    Mo Yong-se stood up from his seat as if he could not be defeated by anyone.

    So, an awkward meeting of the entire Odae family was about to take place at the Yongbong branch.

    Even Bang So-woon didn’t intend it.

    ‘This has been a mess from the start.’

    Bang So-woon stared at the approaching humans and laughed inwardly.

    But it wasn’t all bad.

    Because it is an opportunity to show your presence from the first Yongbong branch meeting.

    also.

    It was also an opportunity to see the prey for oneself.

    ‘Heh, those ugly bitches are coming at me on their own.’

    The corners of Bang So-woon’s mouth slightly curved into a smile.
