Chronicles of the Demon Faction - Chapter 139
Episode 139 Demons and Ghosts (4)
Mokgang-in, who emptied his cup, nodded.
“Not bad.”
But it’s not very good either. Joongwon’s liquor had a very strong scent. It doesn’t matter if it’s strong, but it seemed like it would take some time to get used to this unique scent.
He looked to the side.
An old man was lying there. Although he was in dire condition, he seemed quite strong, perhaps due to his naturally large skeletal structure.
The old man was none other than Hong Guan of the Red House.
Mokgangin’s eyes sparkled.
“It’s a shame.”
He was truly sorry.
Taking control of Jeoksa Temple was much easier than expected. If the family head wasn’t at this point, it wouldn’t have been able to take over so easily.
This is welcome in the sense that there was almost no loss of troops, but it is disappointing for one prosecutor.
“I wanted to have a cool fight with the head of the Seven Demon Houses.”
Of course, he thought there was no way he could lose.
This is true even if the head of the Seven Families is stronger than rumored. They certainly possessed a force that was rare among the rivers, but they were just snake heads that could not reach another wall.
Mok Gang-in was an expert who was just before the wall of transcendence. You are standing before your eyes, the wall of the realm of extreme magic, which is called in the magic world, and the realm of harmony, which is the great answer to the great enlightenment, which is called by the martial arts sect, the harmony of the great enlightenment.
That realm was literally the world of transcendents, and the Ten Masters of Kangho and the Nine Great Demons of the Heavenly Demon Church were the masters of the Heavenly Outer Heaven (天外天).
Of course, even if Mokgangin reaches the verge of the wall, he will not be able to immediately break through the wall and enter that world.
Rather, there is a high possibility that you will not be able to overcome the wall. This is because overcoming that wall requires much greater effort than the hard work and sweat that has been accumulated so far.
That’s why people say that state is the state of the chosen ones.
“Jeoksaju would have been helpful in some way.”
But his face was still indifferent. This is because the work of the palace is more important than personal growth.
He put down his empty glass, got up and opened the door.
In front of the door, an elderly man who appeared to be in his fifties was lying prostrate.
“What about the Seven Star Sword Masters?”
“No contact yet.”
A strange glow flashed in Mok Gang-in’s eyes.
Grumbling.
Cold sweat flowed from the elderly man’s neck.
“Let Xiaohe go.”
“…!”
Geum-moon, an elderly man, asked cautiously.
“Lord Vice Palace. If you send the palace lord for something like that, the palace lord will be angry…”
“….”
“I’m sorry. “I will deliver your order.”
Slurp.
The golden gate disappeared like smoke.
Mok Gang-in, who left the door, walked with support. About thirty prosecutors were standing camped in the back garden.
The spirit of the prosecutors was truly surprising. It was no exaggeration to say that the fervent prayers emitted by each and every one of them were equivalent to that of an elder from the Daemun Sect.
Mok Gang-in opened his mouth.
“Are you ready?”
One of the prosecutors took a step forward.
“It’s almost finished. “It is expected that one city examination will be consumed in the future.”
“Reduce it to half a hour.”
It’s an unreasonable order, but I don’t complain. The prosecutor lowered his head.
“I follow your orders.”
The prosecutor turned around and said.
“I help the Bogeumdan (保劍團) to finish the job. “Move.”
Sasak.
The prosecutors’ movements were very agile. Even though no divine law was being performed, the speed at which it disappeared from sight was incredibly fast.
Mu Kang-in’s eyes became bright.
“It’s a good achievement.”
“thank you.”
“Are the new martial arts skills suitable for you?”
“yes. “It did not cause much conflict with the martial arts of the main palace.”
“Let’s keep looking.”
“yes.”
Mu Kang-in raised his head and looked up at the sky.
The sky was still bright.
‘That’s plenty.’
Once Jeoksa Temple has been reduced to death, all that remains is to bring in delicious prey.
‘I will have a hard life for a while.’
There will probably be many hardships living in Jungwon. Still, it was necessary for the expansion of the palace’s power and perfect advancement into the central plains.
And to yourself.
“Have you received any contact from Uicheonmaeng?”
“It hasn’t arrived yet.”
“okay?”
Mok Gang-in’s eyes became cold.
“Children’s martial arts skills are martial arts, but don’t relax even one bit when it comes to monitoring the movements of the Uicheon Alliance.”
“All right.”
“Let’s just go.”
After sending Danju of the Yuha Geomdan (流河劍團), there was only Mokgang-in left in Huwon.
‘The Lord of Uicheon… This is indeed not normal.’
After taking control of Jeoksa Temple, the plan to wipe out the wealth moths by using the extreme poison of the Tang family was not very surprising.
However, I was quite surprised by the plan to entrust the matter to the Prosecutor’s Office and then turn public opinion into a favorable position by enlisting the Prosecutor’s Office’s prosecutors.
‘They didn’t use their own troops, but used us.’
It’s a bad thing for those who suffer from it. However, neither Mo Kang-in nor any of the swordsmen in the sword palace felt dissatisfied with this matter.
After this is over, if they enter the central plain, they can become heroes who shattered one of the pillars of magic. If this happens, the boiling public opinion can be calmed down at once.
In other words, it’s a good thing for both sides. In addition, the Uicheon Alliance also handed over several rare treasured swords and several rare books as compensation for their efforts.
‘He is good at politics and knows how to deal with people.’
A method that can measure the power of the sword and bow while increasing the power of the Uicheonmaeng, and can even inflict significant damage to the magic warriors.
‘You must never relax.’
I joined hands with someone who was too dangerous. But you will also gain a lot.
Mok Gang-in, lost in thought, lingered on the spot for a long time.
After the banquet, Yuha Geomdanju came to visit.
“Lord Vice Palace. “Everything is ready.”
“I get it.”
“And then I received a call from Uicheon Alliance. “The road has been well paved, so they say they will send a guide by midnight in two days.”
For a moment, Mok Gang-in’s eyes sparkled.
“good.”
I did everything I could. Now all that’s left is to attract the would-be moths here and kill as many of them as possible.
“Release the information throughout the Demonic Martial Forest. “Currently, Jeoksaga has been taken over by some kind of group.”
“yes!”
A small smile appeared on Mok Gang-in’s previously indifferent mouth.
“I can smell blood.”
* * *
“Fuck it.”
Displeasure appeared on Soha’s face.
“Are you sending me to something like this?”
Honestly, I could understand.
Currently, none of the swordsmen who dominated Jeoksa Temple were active. Since each person was faithfully performing their role, the only one left would have been the oxbow owner himself.
Yes, I understand. But understanding and feeling bad were completely different things.
“Mokgangin… enjoy yourself to the fullest. “I’ll make you realize your worth sooner or later.”
Even though he is the second-in-command of the swordsman, he still gives orders to himself, the minor master.
It was truly unpleasant. The reason his father sent him here was as part of training to become the next palace lord, not to receive orders from the deputy palace lord.
Soha looked back.
“Did you find me funny too?”
The two prosecutors who came to accompany Soha were silent.
Soha, who was fuming with bloodshot eyes, soon took a deep breath.
“Damn it. “What do you want from me?”
He had a lot of complaints about everything, but on the other hand, he was also an outstanding prosecutor. For a prosecutor, clear water was essential, so he couldn’t stay angry forever.
After calming down, he kicked the ground again.
grasp!
It was amazing speed.
When I make up my mind and unfold the divine law, it runs as fast as a horse called Chollima. Meanwhile, he maintained a free posture so that he could strike down the flying sword at any time. It was proof that his skills as a prosecutor were up to par.
The same was true for the prosecutors who followed. Although he was not as good as Soha, he was showing off his peak capabilities to the fullest.
How long did it run like that?
‘hmm.’
Ugh!
As he approached a tree, his eyes lit up.
‘This is where I took a turn.’
The footprints of the Seven Star Swordsmen were very thin and consistent. Because they are all experts.
But the other footprints were not consistent. This is because the injuries were significant.
said one of the prosecutors.
“It appears that approximately two examinations have passed, Lord Sogung.”
“I know!”
Annoyance appeared on Soha’s face.
I tried to keep my composure, but every time I saw the footprints, I got angry.
“Chilseong, these idiots. “Why are you bothering people because you can’t even catch one bitch?”
It was then.
“Slut?”
“omg!”
Faaagh!
Soha and the prosecutors, who instantly widened the distance, turned their eyes to the place where the voice was heard.
There was a tall young man standing in a place full of bushes.
A face so handsome it makes me jealous. It was very nice to see his tall and imposing physique.
What was surprising was the number of military flags the young man was wearing. He was armed with as many as four swords, including a giant sword longer than five characters long, a long sword three feet long, and twin swords that looked identical but had different colors.
Chaaaaang!
The swordsmen pulled out their swords with fierce force, and Soha also lowered his upper body and assumed the stance of raising the sword.
Soha’s eyes became sharp.
“Who are you?”
The young man Seo-ryang’s eyes sparkled.
“It’s pretty good.”
The posture and momentum are excellent. I don’t think I’m yet 30, but it’s not easy to show that level of skill.
“It’s a little stiff, but not bad. “It’s a skill that most experts can’t even survive a few rounds of.”
I occasionally hear comments like this from a young man who looks younger than me.
With Soha’s personality, it would have been normal to start with double greed. He was not used to being insulted, compared, or evaluated.
But my mouth never dropped.
gulp.
Soha swallows without realizing it.
‘…strong?!’
Just appearing outside of one’s senses is quite a feat. Moreover, his eyes, which exquisitely went back and forth between languidness and indifference, were armed with a light so powerful that it was difficult to face him.
‘He’s an expert. That’s also huge…!’
But his surprise was just beginning.
Sasasak.
Another man appeared through the bushes.
Soha’s eyes widened. Prosecutors also couldn’t help but be embarrassed.
‘what?’
Was there one more person?
no. That wasn’t all.
Ssyuk. Susssseu.
The sound of footsteps coming from beyond the bushes.
At least over a hundred people were there. They were all masters who were brave and radiated heavy energy waves.
Soha couldn’t believe it.
‘how?!’
It can be done with just one person. I could understand even the two.
However, even though many drones were moving, I could not read their presence. When I listened carefully, I saw that it was moving so blatantly that even an ordinary person who had not learned martial arts could notice it.
“What are you guys?”
Soha turned his gaze to Seo-ryang.
Seo-ryang’s eyes sparkled.
“Oh, now that I see it…”
The anticipation rising from Soha’s body was quite familiar.
“Are you one of those idiots?”
“…fool?”
When Seoliang glanced at Ma Dong-pil, Ma Dong-pil raised his Hyoeum sword.
“Are you in league with the owner of that sword?”
“…!”
A look of astonishment that could not be hidden appeared on Soha’s face.
That sword was clearly one of the treasured swords sent by Uicheonmaeng, and it was also the sword given to him by the Chilseong Sword Master before he struck Jeoksaga.
“How did you get that sword?!”
“That’s right.”
Xu Liang nodded.
at the same time.
Damn it!
Three people were thrown away with an ear-piercing roar.
Instinctively, they raised their swords, but all three of their swords were broken into pieces. Two of them fell, cut in two like broken swords.
Fortunately, the one person who survived was Soha, who did not die, but his upper body was like a rag. It was truly a terrifying sword wind.
“Kuheook!”
The fresh blood being spewed out soaks the ground.
The wounds were so deep that the bones were exposed due to the severe internal injuries. I was in a state where I thought it would be better to die.
Soha looked up at Seo-ryang with trembling eyes.
Before he knew it, the devil, holding a sword the size of a human body, was looking down at him.
‘…!’
Only then did Soha understand. Why didn’t I feel their popularity?
The overwhelming energy wave emitted by the young man in front of me spread throughout the forest, confusing my senses.
‘This is so amazing…!’
One person’s energy is enough to cover the forest? It was truly an unprecedented level.
Xu Liang squatted down in front of Xiao Ha.
“I didn’t know the victim very well. What is the status of Jeoksaga now? “I’m telling you how I was attacked.”
“Cough!”
“At that age, with that martial arts skill… he seems like a guy who has a place in his own right.”
“…?”
Xu Liang smiled whitely.
“If you want to die comfortably, you have to answer everything I ask straight, okay?”
After one hour.
Seo-ryang and Ma Dong-pil arrived in front of the main gate of Jeoksa Temple.
Wooooow!
Seo-ryang, holding out his sword, shouted loudly.
“You thief-headed bastard! Come out now!”
Qarring!
The main gate of Jeoksaga, which had just been built, was once again smashed.
