Chronicles of the Demon Faction

Episode 582 A sad toast (7)

One month later.

“I’ve been there… 100 million?”

Hu Yaosheng’s eyes widened.

“Chi Seven Princess?”

“Ah! Hello!”

Chae Yeo-min smiled brightly.

Even though her whole body was wet with sweat, her smile was as dazzling as the sunlight. It was a face full of life.

“Hey, is the military here?”

Seolyang, with his shirt uncovered and the Cheonmado sword draped over his shoulder, trudged over to me.

Hu Yaosheng hastily lowered his head.

“See you, leader.”

“Okay. Was the work completed well?”

“Yes.”

Ho Yo-seong, who had a strangely weak voice, decided to tell me the results first.

“The Iron Blood Lord agreed.”

Xu Liang smiled.

“I thought so. After all, there wouldn’t be many options.”

“Yes. That’s true, but it feels like the person itself has changed.”

“Have you ever seen Seongju Song before?”

“I haven’t met you in person.”

“But how do you know what’s changed?”

“Well, just the words and actions so far are enough to tell.”

“what the.”

thud.

Seo-ryang, who had carelessly placed the Cheonmado in the dirt, spoke in an extremely leisurely voice.

“Anyway, I’m glad you accepted. Now I can get to work in earnest.”

“Yes. Of course, before that…”

“I have to organize what needs to be organized.”

“As expected, you are the religious leader.”

“I’ve been waiting so desperately for you to come back. I’m itching.”

For a moment, Ho Yao-seong’s eyes widened.

“Do you really want to go to the central plains yourself?”

“Why? Why not?”

“There’s nothing that can’t be done, but there are so many people, so is there any need to do that?”

Xu Liang chuckled.

“Just in case. The war was won, but the world is still dangerous. I wonder if there was ever a time when it wasn’t dangerous.”

Hu Yaosheng’s expression became somewhat serious.

“Master.”

“That’s right.”

“yes?”

“What you think is right. That’s why I’m going to go out myself.”

Hu Yaosheng’s eyes wavered.

Seoliang leaned back against the pavilion railing and crossed his arms.

“Damsayoung is not dead yet.”

“That’s right.”

“But not only our school’s intelligence group, but also Hao Mun’s intelligence network couldn’t figure out where he was headed.”

“In a way, it can be said that it is natural. Except for the leader, there is no one as strong as Dam Sa-young in Tang Geum’s martial forest.

If a master of that level were to decide to hide himself, it would be difficult for any intelligence organization in the world to find him.”

“Usually, the leader of the enemy army who declares defeat is bound to

choose one of three paths: run away to a place no one knows, face death proudly, or maintain power through negotiations with the winner.”

“Damsayoung chose the first path.”

“He’s not someone who would face death with pride, and he’s not someone who doesn’t have enough pride to negotiate with someone he hates.

However, he should be seen as a person who has absolutely no chance of running away to a place no one knows about.”

“That’s right. In other words…”

“There’s something he’s aiming for. That’s natural. What’s important is what he’s aiming for when he even declares defeat.”

Hu Yaosheng smiled.

“I guess you thought a lot while I was gone.”

“My life was quite leisurely. I felt like I would become really lazy if I didn’t keep my head busy.”

Although he said so, Seo-ryang still did not forget Li Cheon-sang’s words.

– This means stopping Damsayoung before she becomes one with the world.

While speaking, Lee Cheon-sang also told us about the characteristics of Cheonryonggi (天龍氣).

‘You said that the characteristics of the Heavenly Dragon Flag are encroachment and collapse.’

Encroachment and collapse.

When I thought about it, I thought it was an energy that really suited Dam Sa-young.

This guy encroached on the martial arts sect with the poison of desire and completely collapsed them from within.

‘Become one with the world? I can’t even imagine how something like that is possible. But I guess Master didn’t say that for nothing.’

Are defeat in the war and Dam Sa-yeong’s survival completely different issues?

Not like that.

For Dam Sa-yeong, defeat means death. Isn’t he even a low-class person who looked down on the other person as a low-class seed whom he treated like a dog?

We have come to a situation where we can acknowledge reality, but we cannot admit defeat without any intention. For him, the declaration of defeat itself would be part of another ruse.

‘see.’

Xiliang’s eyes deepened.

His physical eyes were toward the sky, but his heart was looking at Damsayeong.

‘The man’s desires, which were blurry when he had no time to spare, are now clearly visible.’

Wooooow.

The reigning Demon Emperor and the Guyu Demon Lord wriggled.

After returning to Xingyo after the end of the first war, Seoliang never fully revealed his power. I guess I only paid a little bit of attention when training my martial arts skills.

However, after relaxing with a drink with Daehobeop Martial Arts, he gradually regained his original self through conversations with the leaders and martial arts training with Chae Yeo-min.

‘Dam Sa-young’s desire did not disappear. Rather, it is increasing in size as time goes by.’

Pajijijik.

Lightning flashed from Xiliang’s shoulder.

It is not the old Demon Emperor, but the reigning demon emperor. The reigning Demon Emperor was crying in anger.

‘As expected.’

It was only recently that Seoryang realized the real reason why he was able to read Dam Sa-yeong’s life story and see her desires clearly.

‘The reigning Demon Emperor is aiming.’

There was no place in the world that I had not visited in Xiliang. And the reigning Demon Emperor Qi was always with his body.

The essence of the reigning Demon Emperor is pure destruction.

There is nothing in the world that cannot be destroyed. Perhaps, when the state reaches the level of myth, even a single concept can be destroyed under the condition of heaven’s permission.

‘The reigning Demon Emperor is targeting the Damsa Young, to be exact, the Heavenly Dragon Qi that it carries.’

The most powerful energy in the world.

That was the Heavenly Dragon flag that Dam Sa-yeong held. He could be said to be the only enemy in the martial arts world of the time who could compete with the reigning Demon Emperor of Seoliang.

That is why its owner, Seoryang, can ride on Jinki’s spirituality and read Damsayeong’s desires.

‘Qi (氣) is a thought, and a thought comes from the mind. Therefore, if my mind is disturbed, the eyes that perceive the damsa spirit will also become blurred.’

It was safe to say that there was no way for one’s mind to become distracted at a level of enlightenment.

But unfortunately, something like that happened and he had no choice but to seal away his abilities.

However, now that all abilities have been unleashed, the unification of the world is finally within reach.

Finally, Seoryang was able to completely regain all the abilities that he could enjoy at the level he had reached and his thorough insight burning with unwavering will.

“Master.”

“hmm?”

“Can you see it?”

Xu Liang smiled.

Now, it seems that Hu Yao-sheng has reached a point where he can understand his condition just by looking at his facial expressions and eyes. He was also a very perceptive person.

“To some extent.”

“…You are truly amazing.”

“It’s nothing special. I just think this too is fate. I don’t really like vulgar words like that.”

Xi Liang saw Hu Yaocheng.

Hu Yaosheng also faced Xi Liang directly.

“Total military.”

“Yes, Master.”

“I wonder if I really need to say this to someone who knows everything well, but I’ll just say it just in case.”

“I will listen carefully.”

“Don’t be surprised if something happens.”

Hu Yao-sheng’s eyes lit up.

Xu Liang’s face was serious. It was as if he was certain that something unimaginable was about to happen.

“It won’t be near-term. That’s how I feel. But it could be because I’m not moving right now.”

“….”

“If I head to the midfield, his response may be different.”

“okay.”

Hu Yaosheng smiled.

“Can we understand that to mean that the leader’s trip to the central plains is part of a plan to summon Damsayoung as soon as possible?”

Xu Liang nodded.

“That’s also because the war ended so suddenly. I don’t like splitting sides, but I don’t think it’s particularly unnecessary in the current situation.”

“What you say is correct, sir. When do you plan to leave?”

“When someone comes.”

“Huh? Are you saying someone is coming?”

Seo-ryang smiled and looked at Chae Yeo-min.

Did you think it was rude to join in on adult conversations? Before I knew it, Chae Yeo-min had gone to one side and was practicing Chungbo and Tangsu.

“I have no intention of dragging out the entire power of this church. However, a man who claims to be the master of the new religion cannot just lead the Hocheon Demon Emperor.”

There was a look of surprise on Hu Yaosheng’s face.

“What do you mean…?”

“okay.”

Xi Liang pulled out the Heavenly Demon Sword.

“If we are to truly achieve the world of magic, we will have to utilize the geniuses recognized by Master himself.”

* * *

“Dominion Sex! Heavenly Demon Immortal! Zhong Liying meets the cult leader!”

The voice that echoed throughout Daejeon was very low.

Xu Liang looked down at the young man with startled eyes.

“Are you a spirit?”

“Yes, Master.”

It was a voice filled with a bit of shyness.

Seo-ryang stuck out his tongue.

“Oh my gosh, how have you and Yeomin grown so much without even seeing each other?”

Another genius who was the successor to the Geogyeong family among the seven magic families and the sixth disciple of Lee Cheon-sang.

Indeed, it has been a long time since I saw Zhong Liying, and he looked completely different from the last time I saw him.

Even back then, he was proud of his size for a boy, but now it seems safe to say that he is a decent young man.

He was well over six feet tall, and his strong shoulders and dark skin were full of health.

Blood is blood, but he must have also accumulated tremendous training in the meantime. Without extreme training, it is difficult for muscle stiffness to be revealed that clearly.

‘Kids grow up really fast.’

Xu Liang, who was looking at Zhong Liying with an admiring face, suddenly hardened his expression.

“Anyway, you bastard. I told you to call me brother, so why did you call me the leader again?”

“Huh? Ah! That’s…”

Zhong Liying smiled sheepishly.

“This is Daejeon. Personal titles are prohibited…”

At that time, a sonorous voice rang out from inside the corridor.

“Brother! Is Jong-li’s execution here?”

“Oh, I just came.”

The girl who appeared in the corridor was none other than Chae Yeo-min.

Zhong Liying’s eyes bulged like those of a cow.

Xu Liang said with a smile.

“I guess it’s been a while since you two saw each other?”

“Ah…”

Chae Yeo-min smiled brightly and waved her hand.

“It’s been a while, death penalty!”

“Huh? Uh… Uh, it’s been a while.”

Zhong Liying raised his hand awkwardly. However, he soon realized that this was Daejeon and quickly put down his hand.

Xu Liang chuckled.

“What about the death penalty? He’s just the same brother.”

“But you’re not as close to your older brother as you are to Zhong Liying, are you?” She

exclaimed sweetly in a lively voice.

She suddenly struck a dagger in a strange way. Zhong Liying’s face became even more awkward.

“Your father is well. ?”

“….”

“Hey.”

“….”

“Man!”

“Huh! yes? Oh yes!”

“What are you so mesmerized about? “Did you see a ghost?”

“Oh no! It’s just…”

Zhongliying lowered his head.

“I thought the youngest had grown up a lot.”

“He’s grown up a lot. Time doesn’t discriminate between people. So, is your father okay?”

“Yes. It’s still the same.”

“Yes. Well then, that’s a relief.”

“I….”

“Brother.”

“Yes?”

“….”

“Ah yes! Brother Tongue.”

“Yes.”

Jong Li-young asked with a curious face.

“But why did you call me for some reason…?”

“Why? Can’t you do that?”

“Oops! Oh no! “I’m just curious.”

Seo-ryang laughed out loud.

“I wanted to strengthen the friendship between my brothers and sisters after a long time.”

“Ah… I see.”

“Why do you look so disappointed?”

“No!”

“Son.”

Seo-ryang asked with a smile. .

“So, are you sharpening your spear blades well?”

Zhong Liying’s eyes sparkled.

“Of course.”

His voice was confident.

Xu Liang nodded.

“I like your confidence. Okay, I’ll be leaving school in three days, so make sure you’re ready.”

“Yes! …Yes? Expelled from school?”

“Yes.”

“Where?”

Xu Liang looked out the window.

The blurry world beyond the countless peaks of the Hundred Thousand Mountains filled his field of vision.

“Under heaven.”
