Chronicles of the Demon Faction

Episode 272 There is no destination for demons (2)

“It is said that the conversation with the Lord of the Iron Blood Castle ended successfully.”

“Right.”

“The next destination is a place called Gwangmoklim near Gyeongseoksan Mountain.

It is a place that even people from Anhui and Jiangxi do not approach easily, and it is said that the forces of the Heavenly Dragon Palace are hiding there.”

Lee Cheon-sang nodded.

“It must be difficult.”

“Yes, I guess so. Tianlong Palace is different from Sword Palace and Beast Palace.

This is because it has the closest force to the Ice Palace, which is the seat of the Four Palaces.

In addition, he is said to be skilled in psychic techniques and possesses many techniques that can pose a threat to even extreme magic experts.”

“….”

“Still, it is clear that it is a prey that is difficult to miss. Currently, public opinion about the Uicheon Alliance is extremely unfavorable.

“The relationship with the Three Palaces has not yet been properly explained, so if we deal with the forces of the Heavenly Dragon Palace and spread the rumor throughout the central plains, the situation will be easier in many ways.”

“No, I didn’t just say it would be difficult because they were strong.”

“yes?”

Ho Yo-seong tilts his head.

Lee Cheon-sang, who emptied his drink, turned his gaze to the window.

‘It might have started by now.’

It is a fate that must be faced by those who have mastered the reigning Demon Emperor, or rather, those who have opened the Gate of Desire and ascended to the Heavenly Demon Guide.

‘The first time is always important. If you don’t break through that path properly, the difficulties you will face in the future will be several times more difficult.’

When talking to Ho Yo-seong and explaining the Yokgyemun.

When I said that the future would be more difficult, I did not mean Seoryang’s one-shot victory against the midfielder.

If the way forward to the end is too much for you, then you can use Shingyo’s troops.

What is really difficult is for Seoryang individuals.

‘And once you break through that path, you will be able to realize how I observe the world.’

Of course, knowing that did not mean that Seo-ryang could become like him. I didn’t even want it in the first place.

The mountain he climbed now is too rough and desolate to ask his disciple to follow him.

I just wish I could find another mountain.

I was hoping to climb a much more humane and comfortable mountain path rather than this overly lonely land.

So, even if I reach a similar level in the future, I hope it won’t be this difficult.

That was all that Lee Cheon-sang wanted from Seo-ryang.

“Oh, and this is something I’m still not sure about…”

“What?”

Ho Yaoseong frowned.

“It appears that opening up is on the move.”

“Beggars begging, it’s always happened. Is there anything special about it?”

“I guess… I’m digging Hao Mun.”

“Beggars are good at smelling things.”

When Lee Cheon-sang says this, it somehow sounds funny.

“That’s right. They always had a good sense of smell. But I have a feeling it will be quite difficult for Hao Wen this time.”

“The reason is?”

“I’m digging it properly. “It looks like they are shaking up Hwasan and Jongnam’s forces as well.”

Lee Cheon-sang’s eyes lit up.

“You’re saying you’re confident and moving.”

“I think so.”

Ho Yaoseong asked quietly.

“How can I nudge you at this point?”

“Do as you please. “Isn’t the Secret Service an organization under your command?”

“Yes, that’s true. “What I said was not simply about operating a monument.”

“if?”

Hu Yaosheng scratched his head.

“I’m thinking of pulling out the dragon head ark.”

The playful voice contained terrifying content.

Interest arose on Lee Cheon-sang’s face.

“Are you going to touch the beggar leader directly?”

“It will have a huge impact. By the way, wouldn’t Master Sogyo have caused a huge stir in the central plains?

“The entire northern part of the Central Plains is in an uproar because of that unconventional move.”

Ho Yaoseong added in a confident tone.

“In times like this, if you cut off one of the enemy’s front feet, you will be at ease for a long time. Not only to Lord Sogyo, but also to us. Well, that’s it.”

“If you’re so determined, give it a try.”

“Yes, but Yongdu Ark is no ordinary guy, is he? “I think we need to bring in a good expert.”

“Who are you talking about?”

“Isn’t there one great expert among those who recently left our school?”

Lee Cheon-sang nodded.

“Do as you wish.”

“thank you.”

Ho Yo-seong stood up, taking care of the documents.

I thought it would go back to normal, but Ho Yo-seong seemed to have something left to say and hesitated to leave.

Lee Cheon-sang tilted his head.

“Is there anything more to say?”

“Um…the leader.”

“Say it.”

“It may be a bit unexpected.”

Hu Yaosheng lowered his head.

“Please live long and prosper.”

As he said, the greeting that comes out of nowhere is quite unexpected. Even Lee Cheon-sang of the world blinked at this unexpected sound.

“…Okay.”

“Yes. Well then, let’s go! “I’ll come back to report again tomorrow!”

It’s like a schoolchild studying at a school. Ho Yo-seong’s steps as he quickly left Daejeon were full of vitality.

Lee Cheon-sang, who was looking at the closed door of Daejeon, smiled without knowing.

“There are truly many different types of people at our school.”

In fact, those who are born with talents that are superior to others are bound to be seen as abnormal. Because they see the world with eyes that are far removed from common sense.

Lee Cheon-sang turned his gaze to the window again.

There was a little fatigue in his indifferent eyes.

“It was long enough.”

* * *

“Master Xiaojiao.”

“….”

“Master Xiao?”

“ok? “Oh, did you call me?”

“yes. This….”

“Ah, thank you. It was cooked well. “Is this deer meat?”

“That’s right.”

“How long has it been since I last had meat soup?”

Xiliang ate the soup hungrily.

Ma Dong-pil tilted his head. Since the conversation with the Lord of the Iron Blood Castle three days ago, Lord Xiao seems to have changed somewhat.

‘I’m sure you’ll be okay.’

Haven’t you shown me something like that a few times in the past? It’s not that I’m not worried, but I always overcome it on my own. In times like this, it’s best to just stay still.

As expected, Ma Dong-pil was the one who knew Seoryang best.

Seoliang thought as he poured the meat soup into his mouth.

‘It’s just a nightmare. ‘I wasn’t the kind of person who cared about that in the first place.’

I don’t care if this is something like a so-called precognitive dream. If this was really a precognitive dream, all I had to do was prevent it from happening.

He had enough ability.

‘I trust myself and I trust these guys. I believe in Gongyachi and believe in Protestantism.

The people who support me are not all easygoing people. No need to worry. uh? The flesh is big.’

The look in Seoryang’s eyes as he eagerly chewed the meat became increasingly lively.

‘Worrying about these guys is actually ignoring them. These guys are also people who are called geniuses wherever they go. oh? Dongpil took care of this kid. big.’

I slurped and emptied the bowl in an instant. Ma Dong-pil asked.

“Would you like another bowl?”

Seo-ryang glanced at Yeo Sang-rin.

Yeo Sang-rin was mindlessly eating soup. He was even ready to chew the bowl.

“done. “I’m full just looking at it.”

“…Oh yes.”

“Isn’t it really amazing? How can such a large amount fit into such a thin waist? “Is that physically possible?”

“I just put it down.”

Yeo Sang-rin raised her head and looked at Seo-ryang and Ma Dong-pil.

Xu Liang waved his hand.

“Eat, eat.”

“Huh.”

Yeo Sang-rin put her face into the bowl again.

Seoliang looked at the cherry blossoms. Aenghwa was staring down at the meat soup, wondering what was going on.

“why? Is there something wrong?”

“yes? Oh no! Just…”

“You don’t like it?”

“Never! “It’s not like that…”

Aenghwa said hesitantly.

“I just wish I had brought some more spices.”

“You don’t like it, right?”

“Absolutely not! “I just… feel sorry…”

“This is a rare communion while homeless.”

“yes.”

Still, it seems a bit disappointing. It wasn’t that it didn’t taste good, but rather that I wanted to try something more authentic.

Ma Dong-pil, Yeo Sang-rin, and Aenghwa are the same as before. It still shows its appearance.

‘It’s bad to be too relaxed, but there’s no need to worry unnecessarily.’

After a while, the group gathered together after eating.

“If you travel about half a day more, you will reach Gwangmokrim.”

“That’s right.”

“When did Gong Yachi say he would come?”

“The fourth hour has passed, so it will come soon. “I said I would do the last check before noon.”

“I see.”

At that time, I felt a familiar sight near the west. As soon as Ma Dong-pil finished speaking, the person who made his presence known was Gong Ya-chi.

Xu Liang waved his hand.

“Here.”

“You’ve already come this far.”

“I find you more interesting. “What kind of side road do you take that allows you to quickly traverse here and there?”

“This text is confidential.”

“You must be young.”

Seoliang tilted his head.

“But.”

“Please speak.”

“Isn’t there really a problem? “By that time, your face had completely disappeared?”

Yeo Sang-rin tilted her head. From her perspective, Gong Yachi’s face wasn’t much different from before.

Since he had a blunt expression, it was difficult to see what was different.

Gong Yachi, who was looking at Seoryang silently, sighed.

“I tried to handle it on my own, but I think I need to tell you.”

“What?”

“Opening has moved.”

Seo-ryang’s eyes sparkled.

“Open?”

“yes. I think he noticed. “We are moving.”

“Then isn’t it a pretty big problem?”

“We have taken various measures to prepare for the unexpected. Still, openness is openness.

“The investigation is carried out in a very systematic manner, and the speed is very fast.”

Xu Liang nodded.

“Anyway, it’s not something I can solve even if you tell me.”

“yes. So I didn’t tell you, but I thought you should know at some point.”

“I can’t solve it, but I know someone who can.”

“yes?”

Gong Yachi’s eyes widened.

Xi Liang pointed south with his thumb.

“Hao Wen had an affair with Yi Tian Meng. Instead, the main school is looking after you, right?”

“…!”

Surprise appeared on Gong Yachi’s face.

“The Heavenly Demon Church… can help?”

“Weren’t we under contract? If you have something to give, you must also receive something. “Isn’t it because of Hao Moon that I can easily get through this mess?”

“But…”

“To put it bluntly, helping Hao Wen is helping me, and helping me is helping the school. “In the end, it’s a relationship that goes back and forth.”

Gong Yachi had never thought like this before.

It could be seen that it was not because he was stupid, but because of his past habits. Hao Mun was always the one doing something, not the one receiving it.

If you received something, it was money. Their business was to sell information and make money through strict contracts with customers.

“Probably by now, even Lord Ho knows Hao Wen’s situation.

“I don’t know how that is possible, but he is a human being who analyzes and remembers all kinds of things that happen in the world with his small head.”

“….”

“Let’s contact the governor about what has happened and take action. Until then, just be patient. “That person will tell me right away.”

“Thank you for that…”

“Even if it’s not something to be thankful for.”

Xiliang clapped his hands.

“Okay, now let’s talk about work. Did you get all the information from there?”

“yes!”

Gong Yachi’s face brightened.

On the other hand, Seo-ryang’s face became increasingly cruel.

“Now let’s discuss how to roast and eat those snake-headed bastards.”
