Chronicles of the Demon Faction - Chapter 324
Episode 324 The Creation of Heaven and Earth (6)
“Lord!”
“What’s going on?”
“A letter has arrived from Somunju Gongya!”
Dam Sa-young’s eyes lit up.
“This way.”
Dam Sa-yeong, who received the letter from the Lord of Heaven and Earth, opened it with a slightly impatient hand.
Soon, Dam Sa-young’s eyes wavered.
“The demonic cult went to Shaolin…?”
“That’s right!”
It is said that a small group of less than ten demons of the Heavenly Demon Church entered Seongsan without anyone knowing.
The Lord of Heaven and Earth continued speaking with a somewhat strange expression.
“It seems that the reason the Demonic Cult went on the offensive was to attack Shaolin. Since Su Jiao-ju’s whereabouts were unknown in Shaolin, the child must have been exhausted.”
“Hmm…”
“Actually, from the Demonic Church’s perspective, it is no different from an emergency. “Maybe the troops moving north are warning us.”
“A warning? which?”
“If Lord Xiao Jiao died, war would begin with Shaolin.”
“….”
“So to speak, you can think of it as a warning and a threat.”
Maybe you thought so?
no. It is correct to interpret it that way. That is common sense and reasonable.
However, Dam Sa-young felt a strange feeling of chills running down her spine. It was a sense of political strife that he developed while swallowing up the Uicheon Alliance that could not be explained by logic.
‘What the note said is correct. From their point of view, isn’t it a situation where the prince who will rule the magic island in the future has gone missing? If you think about that, this level of armed provocation may seem insufficient.’
So what is it?
What’s so bothering you? What is making my heart pound?
What on earth is going on in Shaolin?
“The martial arts skills of the demon cultists heading to Songshan will be strong, right?”
“yes?”
“As you said, if they had planned to warn and capture attention at the same time, and if a small number of people had actually headed to Seongsan, they would have sent great experts.”
“Oh, I guess so.”
Dam Sa-young’s eyes lit up.
“You’re going to overthrow Shaolin with less than ten people? That’s impossible for anyone. Even if those less than ten people were all the former Great Mazon, it would be difficult.”
That was the power of the thousand-year Shaolin. Wasn’t he also the first to isolate them because he knew how terrifying Shaolin’s power was?
“So, at least we should have sent the Old Great Mazon or higher experts.”
“That’s right.”
“But if you look at this letter, there is no estimate of the force of those less than ten people. “If you’re Gong Yachi, you probably don’t know how important this part is.”
The eyes of the Lord of Heaven and Earth wavered.
“No way…”
Dam Sa-young’s eyes lit up.
‘trap? Or a mistake? Whatever it is, it shows disappointment.’
It was then.
As if he had been waiting, the voice of the Cheonjigak warrior was heard from outside the conference room.
“Lord! A separate letter arrived from Haomun!”
The eyes of both people shone.
“Bring it.”
After a while, Dam Sa-yeong smiled after reading the letter.
‘It wasn’t a mistake.’
The Lord of Heaven and Earth asked with a puzzled look.
“What kind of content…?”
“Because it is a situation where the level of fire is at stake, it seems like they are actually just reporting it for now. “The details are right here.”
Each head of Cheonji received a letter from Dam Sa-yeong.
The head of heaven and earth nodded.
“Gong Yachi’s way of handling things is definitely not bad.”
“It meets expectations. “But now is not the time to worry about that.”
Dam Sa-young’s face hardened.
“You sent less than ten troops, and those that did not belong to an absolute expert? “What do you think this means?”
“Hmm…”
“It is clear that it is not the intention to overthrow Shaolin.”
The Lord of Heaven and Earth felt a cramp growing in his head. What on earth are these guys doing?
“Lord. “Now that things have come to this, how about sending troops to Shaolin?”
“History?”
“yes. Of course, the justification is not to attack Shaolin, but to catch the demons hiding in Shaolin. “I think it would be a good idea to monitor Shaolin for a while to check various things.”
Dam Sa-young’s eyes lit up. It was definitely not a bad idea.
“Where are the Nine Sect troops closest to Shaolin now?”
“This is Qingcheng. Woo Jang Moon-in is waiting closest. “The troops they have are formidable.”
“Woo, if you’re a long-time writer, you can trust him.”
Damsayoung nodded.
“Send a letter. Let’s find out what’s going on in Shaolin.”
“I follow your orders.”
“We also need to pay attention to the Iron Blood Castle and the Demonic Cult. “In particular, we need to keep an eye on the northeast.”
“yes!”
After the Lord of Heaven and Earth left, Damsayoung pressed her temples.
“…It’s not fun to play in such a tight game.”
* * *
“I did not expect this result, but strangely enough, I have imagined a scene like this.”
“what?”
“It’s an enemy we’ve been fighting against for hundreds of years, but one day there might come a day when the enemy talks to the head of the headquarters.”
“….”
“And I also thought that the opposite situation could well happen.”
“As the manager said, he probably didn’t expect this result.”
“That’s right. “It feels burdensome to spit out such evil words as someone who serves Buddha, but I thought it was clear that when we face each other in each other’s territory, one of us will inevitably walk the path of destruction.”
“If I had left it alone, I think it would have been mutilated, if not destroyed.”
“That’s right. So I’m surprised and even more thankful.”
Seo-ryang chuckled.
The face of the old monk, who spoke with a calm smile, looked very devastated. But at least he didn’t look seriously ill or without energy at all.
“Can I ask you a rude question?”
“Ask as much as you want.”
“How old are you this year?”
“I don’t know why you’re curious about that, but I’ll be turning 60 next year.”
As expected, we were of similar age.
If he had not died and been reincarnated, he would also have been a similar age to the Shaolin master.
“Thank goodness.”
“What do you mean?”
“If a person as famous as a Shaolin master had reached nirvana without even living a single day, how much praise would the people around him have given him? Live for over a hundred years and let everyone know that there is no such thing as nirvana. “That way it’s more comfortable here.”
“Hehehe!”
I wondered if there was such an extreme joke, but Hye-sim had to laugh.
If those words were sincere, there is no way that the leader of the Protestant religion would have cured him. Even if it wasn’t Shaolin, if you looked for a way to correct the world, you would definitely find it.
Of course, Seo So-gyo may have found the surest and quickest path, but that did not diminish my gratitude.
“Afterwards, those who have completed treatment will gather to express their gratitude. But before that, as the room manager, I would like to greet you first.”
Hye-sim bowed her head and smiled.
“On behalf of all of Shaolin, I would like to express my gratitude to my benefactor.”
He looked very polite.
It wasn’t just because I received favor. It was clear that he was a person whose manners were ingrained in him, from his tone of voice to his atmosphere.
Xu Liang shook his head.
“Did you hear from Master Jeoksong? “What do I want?”
“I heard.”
“Then that’s it. “You don’t have to thank me.”
“If you caught a thief even though it wasn’t your intention, it’s only right for the person who was robbed to give thanks.”
Xiliang scratched his head.
‘It leaves me speechless.’
He too had visited Shaolin in the past.
Is it just that? I have also been to Janggyeonggak, the largest secret site in Shaolin. They did not infiltrate secretly, but entered and exited confidently when the law of righteousness was activated.
But even then, I never saw the head of the room. I only saw the leader of the former Nahandang and a few masters.
Surprisingly, Seo-ryang at the time had a similar impression from all of them, and the same was true for Jeok-song and Hye-sim.
‘It is good. And strong.’
It is not easy for a strong person to be kind. It is not easy for a good person to be strong.
The monks of Shaolin were different. Although they each had different personalities, they were all good and strong.
That was Shaolin. There was a reason why everyone praised it.
“So why did you ask to see me?”
“I said hello to my benefactor and decided to meet him to discuss future matters.”
This part is also hot.
“It’s for the future… If you’ve already heard from the ambassador, there’s no need to talk to me, right?”
“You can only tell that a flower is pretty when you see it in person. People are like that too.”
You know how to say something like that with confidence.
In any case, it wasn’t a bad story for Seoryang. No, maybe it would be better for Seoliang.
“Are you planning on moving right away?”
“That’s right.”
“You’re hot.”
“So far, Shaolin has not been doing its job. “What would be the point of taking more time in the name of getting my body back in shape?”
“Okay. “Then let’s talk about it as briefly and concisely as possible.”
Xi Liang asked seriously.
“How do you plan to move?”
“We will move with sincerity.”
“About Hyeolgo and the leader?”
“That’s right.”
“The manager said he would take responsibility. How do you intend to take responsibility for that?”
“I plan to resolve the conflicts that have broken out in the river one by one.”
“That’s a vague answer.”
“Yes, that’s a strong answer. “I have no intention of putting any limits on this vicious Daengjung.”
Xu Liang smiled.
“Even if it means eating Uicheonmaeng?”
“Shaolin is not compatible with greed. “I just want peace.”
It may seem like you are saying it differently, but in the end, that is Shaolin. It was an answer full of determination that he would do anything for peace in the central plains.
“No matter what, if we announce that fact, we will not be able to avoid confrontation with the Uicheon Alliance in the future.”
“I think so.”
“Maybe quite a few people will be sacrificed in the middle.”
“…Amitabha Buddha.”
Hyesim quietly spits out displeasure.
That was enough of an answer. It meant that I would try to make no sacrifices as much as possible, and it also meant that I would not give up.
“I will ask you one last question.”
“Please speak.”
“Are you going to fight us?”
Hye-sim, who was quietly looking at Seo-ryang, smiled and said.
“It is called ‘Spilgwijeong (事必歸正)’. That is my answer.”
If the Church of Heavenly Demon does something evil, Shaolin will always step in and stop it.
And you will win. So don’t do that.
It was a great answer with many implications. Seo-ryang laughed out loud without realizing it.
“I’m so scared of this that I can’t even mess around.”
“Hehe, since someone as talented as Seo So-gyo says that, I really don’t know what to do.”
Xu Liang stood up.
“As the distance is quite long, it will take some time for the nobleman to notice. “After noon tomorrow, there’s a good chance they’ll notice.”
“I know what you mean.”
“I understand. “Then get some more rest.”
“Amitabha Buddha.”
It was then.
“Execution of the head of the room!”
“What’s going on?”
“It is said that Qingcheng Zhang Munren has reached the vicinity of Songshan!”
Seoliang looked at Hyesim.
The smile had disappeared from Hyesim’s face.
The courtesy and kindness he had shown just now was completely colorless.
“How can you carelessly honor the long gate of Cheongseong? “Send the Eight Great Guards and tell them to welcome him with courtesy.”
* * *
two days later.
“Lord Hawk! “It’s urgent!”
“….”
“The letter sent by Wu Jangmun-in states that the Eight Great Guardians of Shaolin blocked the road…!”
“I know.”
“yes?”
The Lord of Cheonjigak, who looked at Damsayoung with puzzled eyes, immediately felt goosebumps all over his body.
Dam Sa-young’s face was distorted so viciously that it was difficult to dare to face her.
At the center of the flower garden where his gaze was directed, about thirty flowers had all withered. The place where withered flowers were blooming in a flower garden that looked like a map of the central plains was near Hanam.
“Now I understand. I realized everything. “That guy from Seoliang was truly a sneaky guy.”
Another layer of smile appeared on the distorted face.
It was a terrifyingly cold and ugly murder.
“Instead of advancing to the midfield and expanding their power, they were sprinting to target my head. “It was just me.”
Because it was an urgent situation, we intentionally omitted parts that required investigation. I am sending you an additional letter to ask for your forgiveness and because facts have been revealed without even a hint.
As it turns out, most of them appear to be masters who are skilled in secret practices and hiding their magic power. However, among them, there were no absolute masters who could turn the tide of battle, and at least one or two of them seemed to be mentally unsound.
This is an area that requires more thorough investigation. We will send you additional information in the future.
