Chronicles of the Demon Faction - Chapter 269
Episode 269 Unconventional departure (7)
“Not very good.”
Dam Sa-yeong, who was examining a flower of the Ten Colors, soon threw the flower away carelessly. As soon as it hit the ground, the flower turned into powder.
“My heart is so disturbed that the flowers I grow look like this. “It’s really frustrating.”
Dam Sa-young, sitting on a chair, looked up at the sky.
It seems like only yesterday that I was suffocating in the muggy air, but fall was already in full swing. Winter will come soon too.
Dam Sa-young, who was drinking hot tea, suddenly burst into laughter.
“Haomun?”
It was an enemy I never thought of. Dragon Head Ark said the probability, but if he said so, it would be safe to say that Hao Wen just intervened.
“It’s a truly unexpected variable.”
The reason intelligence groups are scary is because they can dominate public opinion.
The reason why the political faction, Murim, was able to maintain its power even when it had no power was because it received support from the people. In the end, even those who called him that guy, if they had to raise their hands, raised their hands for the political faction, Murim.
Compassion (俠) and righteousness (righteousness).
All members of the Murim people group live with moral defects. However, even in the midst of this, the political faction, Moorim, knew how to scratch the places that the people were itchy.
And what imprinted that loyalty and cooperation on the world was the representative openness of the information community.
“If Hao Wen interferes with that, it will be a real pain in the ass.”
Damsayoung clicked her tongue.
He was a man of great standing who rose from the bottom with his bare hands and achieved his current position. So, unlike other politicians, I knew how to be honest with myself.
“I sprinkled ink on pure white rice paper and crumpled it. If this happens, my actions will also be restricted.”
A throne created using desire.
The moment the throne shook, the Old Daemun faction, which had barely been made into a scarecrow, would move again. To be precise, the characters from previous generations who have been pushed into the backroom by the current generation will move.
There was nothing he couldn’t do if he was told to eat them too, but it was a huge burden for him as well. If the current system is shaken, a civil war may break out within the political faction.
“Hmm, even if it’s not Hao Mun, it’s still a problem. These are people who have the power to become a variable at any time…”
Dam Sa-young shook her head.
“There is no choice. “I have no choice but to open a waterway.”
He pulled the string in the air.
Immediately afterwards, a warrior came in and prostrated himself.
“Contact Kang Seon-bae.”
* * *
A look of upheaval appeared on Xu Liang’s face.
‘I can’t get my head around this.’
Ugh. Wooooow.
The air that was being pressed down became hot.
The air was distorted as if a haze was rising.
The energy waves of two absolute entities colliding across a stream are causing abnormalities in the formation.
‘Regardless of grudges, he is truly a great person.’
Seo-liang could not help but be amazed by Song Zheng Baek’s military power.
He was the one who opened the third hell gate of the Old Demon Lord and ascended to the true level of the ultimate demon. I could confidently say that he was one step ahead of the Old Great Mazon based on his pure skill alone.
However, I could not easily escape this intangible pressure.
‘Wouldn’t he be stronger than that old man at this level?’
Dam Sa-young came to mind.
Another absolute figure who was strong enough to entangle himself even if he was not a bloodthirsty when he was the King of the Flesh.
‘No, it won’t be like that.’
It felt that way because his temperament was rougher than that of Dam Sa-yeong, but no one would know his actual skills unless he tried them.
Moreover, Lee Cheon-sang said that Dam Sa-young is constantly getting stronger at this very moment. There is a high probability that the current Damsayeong is not the old Damsayeong.
Of course, the same applies to remittance bags.
‘Still, somehow, my mind calms down.’
The shock of the first meeting was so great that I showed signs of murder without even realizing it, but with a few deep breaths, the boiling murderous intent calmed down.
Now, I could only admire the opponent’s strength.
This probably means that Seoryang has also grown. This was the reason why I was able to calmly evaluate the other person without being swayed by my anger.
Xi Liang took control.
“This is Seoliang.”
Neither affiliation nor location is revealed, just the name.
Although it is not rude, it is difficult to say that it is sufficient as a greeting to the owner of one faction.
But Song Sang-baek was unable to catch Seo-ryang like that.
‘That’s amazing.’
The subtle energy waves are beyond imagination.
‘An expert in anti-Rohwan-dong? No way.’
If Seo-ryang couldn’t help but be impressed when he faced Seo-yeon Baek, Seo-yeon Baek also couldn’t help but be shocked by Seo-ryang.
A decent martial artist can be brought to his knees just by the pressure of his natural prayers.
But the guy in front of me was not only countering his own pressure, but was also putting strong pressure on this side.
Zheng Zhongbaek’s eyes became bright.
‘The Demonic Cult has raised a monster.’
He looked to his side.
The sturdy young man who appeared to be in his early thirties was his student.
His student, who boasts a level of martial arts not befitting his age, recently surpassed human limits and broke through the wall of transcendence.
It was a talent worthy of praise. He was a martial artist worthy of being the next owner of the Iron Blood Castle.
But compared to that guy in front of me, I feel like it’s too much and is lacking.
“This is how you view the little master of the Demonic Cult.”
Without hesitation, it is called a demonic religion. But Seoliang did not waver at all.
“Can we cross over?”
Zhong Zhenbaek’s eyes lit up.
“I know.”
Xu Liang walked out without hesitation. Yeo Sang-rin also followed him.
His feet touched the stream.
Cheeeeeeeek!
As soon as I stepped on the water, a whitish vapor rose. The emitted air waves are evaporating the stream water.
Zhong Zhenbaek looked back at Huang Kun, who was standing far behind.
Huang Kun nodded. It meant that the boundary of the battle had been overcome.
I blurted out the remittance bag without realizing it.
“That’s amazing.”
When the barrier is removed, the stream water becomes real. This means that it is normal for your feet to be wet unless you spread out the horizontal movement.
Still, the water is evaporating. The stream water, which was both real and imaginary, could not be evaporated by external factors.
The ultimate magical energy blows away even illusions. This means that you can resist this method at any time if you want to.
Finally, Seo-ryang and Yeo Sang-rin crossed the stream.
Song Zhongbaek put his back and turned around.
“Come up.”
After a while.
Seo-ryang and Song Jong-baek sat across from each other on the table. Behind Xu Liang stood Yeo Sang-rin, and behind Song Zheng Baek stood his disciples Huan Ya and Hwang Kun.
“Do you drink a little?”
“I enjoy it sometimes.”
“Would you like a drink?”
“We’ll do it when the conversation ends well.”
It was a clear rejection.
Hwanya’s eyes became sharp and interest appeared on Hwanggon’s face.
Song Zhongbaek calmly nodded.
“I have a lot of doubts.”
“Many people lose their lives because of clumsiness disguised as extravagance.”
“It’s clumsiness disguised as extravagance… That’s true, but at least I’m not someone who uses tricks in public.”
“This is an unbelievable statement.”
Hwanya’s cheeks trembled slightly.
A little interest appeared on Zheng Zhengbaek’s face.
“can not believe it? “Are you saying that to me and no one else?”
“Isn’t it rather disrespectful to the lord of the castle to say so abruptly?”
“Why do you think that?”
“I know him as someone who started from scratch and worked his way up to that point. “I don’t dare imagine, but each day was probably a series of bloody battlefields.”
Xu Liang smiled.
“Trusting a person who achieved victory in the end on a battlefield called Sapa, where deception is rampant, is like saying that you should go bare-body into a den where a great tiger lives after starving for several days.”
“…Hoo?”
“Unfortunately, I am not a person who has lived a very easy life either. “At least I don’t go into the danger zone until I get hit by a knife.”
They say there are different types of compliments, but I’ve never heard this type of compliment before.
“It’s more of an interpretation than a dream. Still, it feels good to be lifted up like that.”
“I hope you are in a good mood. Of course you should.”
“haha.”
In the end, Song Zhengbaek had to laugh.
It’s natural that this kid doesn’t trust himself.
However, it is rare to find someone who confidently expresses his or her opinion and at the same time softens the mood.
“Do you know this?”
“What do you mean?”
“I have committed many murders to sit in this position. And most of them were weaker than me.”
Zhong Zhenbaek’s eyes sparkled.
“The reason I killed so many people weaker than me is simple. “It’s to nip it in the bud.”
“….”
“There are a lot of good guys. But the ones who will become monsters are less than a handful. “I am standing here after killing or recruiting all of those people.”
Seo-ryang’s smile deepened.
“That’s a compliment too.”
“I know very well. The more you show me your martial arts skills and amazing character, the more I can’t help but be wary of you.
“I can’t kill you because there is a relationship between three generations, but I want to crush you for the sake of my successor who will lead the next generation.”
“You’re honest.”
“True strength comes from honesty. As that young Soger said earlier, I am a person who has no need to tell lies. That’s why it’s strong.”
Song Sang-baek continued calmly.
“Now then, say what you want to say. Try to persuade me, who is wary of you, somehow.
“I think you fully understand that I am a person who can either cause you trouble or give you strength depending on the situation.”
Xi Liang’s eyes flashed.
A few words of conversation were enough to show that they were formidable to each other.
From now on, it’s real.
“I’m sure you can guess why I told you my identity.”
“I guess it’s to make it easier to work in the midfield.”
“That’s right. “If the Lord of Seong stabs me in the back after this, I will be in quite a bit of trouble.”
“It will be difficult, but that will be all. “If I’m going to get you into real trouble, I’ll have to take action myself.”
“That is also true.”
Xu Liang’s smile disappeared.
Zhong Zhenbaek’s eyes deepened. Seo-ryang finally realized that this was the moment to bring out his true feelings.
“I will destroy the Iron Blood Fortress.”
“…!”
“And I think it’s the same, Lord Seong. “Do you want to erase our school from the face of the earth?”
He is prone to saying dangerous things.
Zheng Zhongbaek nodded.
“If I could bite it, I would definitely do it.”
“We are that way to each other. “That bloody history has created an unbreakable chain of hatred.”
“….”
“I want you to put that chain aside for a moment.”
Zheng Zhongbaek smiled.
“Let’s catch Uicheonmaeng first?”
“It’s not ‘let’s get it.’”
“…?”
“I will catch it.”
At those words, not only Zhong Zhenbaek but also Huan Ya and Huang Kun could not help but be surprised.
“Are you saying you are going to catch Uicheon-maeng?”
“That’s right. To be precise, I am about to send all those under Lord Uicheon and those who are with him to the underworld.”
It was a strong confidence.
And what supported that confidence was a resentment and hatred so deep and deep that it actually made people calm.
“how?”
Right now.
Flash!
Seoliang’s magical eyes shone more intensely than ever.
“I plan to go see the leader in person.”
