Chronicles of the Demon Faction - Chapter 367

Episode 367 Be glorious at the feet of the Heavenly Demon (2) When

Gogu arrived at the place where the group was, he put Seoliang in confusion with his extremely solemn face.

“Kill me!”

“It’s all my fault.”

“sorry.”

In each word, the sorrow oozed out so desperately that it was burdensome. He wasn’t this type of person to begin with, but he seemed unable to forgive himself for not participating in the battle.

Only after Seoryang and Gorumajon came forward to appease him for a long time did Gogu stop treating him. His expression didn’t change when he asked me to kill him or now, but he seemed to have calmed down a bit now.

“Are you okay now?”

“Roughly.”

Xu Liang’s face looked very refreshed. Not only was all my terrible internal and external injuries healed, but I also ate a full meal, so I felt better about living.

“Fortunately, the.”

“Anyway, what happened?”

“All the previous shaman masters who were addicted to blood pressure, led by Hyeon Cheon Jin-in, have been detoxified.”

“great job.”

Unlike Shaolin, the Shaman faction was pitted against former masters and active-duty leaders. If the former masters had not been addicted to blood pressure, the landscape of Wulin would have changed.

‘Old Dam… you didn’t cross the line.’

I didn’t agree with Dam Sa-young’s methods, but I could understand why he didn’t kill the former masters.

Although it polluted the minds of most active members of the shaman faction, the shaman was still a shaman. If the former masters had been killed, those under active duty would have risen up. If that happens, the entire Shaman faction would be devastated.

‘Even if I were Dam Sa-yeong, it would have been difficult to abandon the shaman faction. The shaman’s military power is comparable to that of Shaolin. Even if it takes time, you will be able to take full control of that power as long as you subdue all of the Sentai’s masters.’

The corners of Seo-ryang’s mouth rose.

‘That greed that I couldn’t give up was holding me back.’

If he had not burned down the blood of Shaolin and Shaman, the Shaman faction would have fallen into the hands of Dam Sa-yeong many years later.

But now it is different. An anti-Jeonghoe group was formed centered around Shaolin and shamans and was putting strong pressure on the Uicheon Alliance.

“…Of course, you might be embarrassed, but you probably don’t think it’s a big problem.”

“yes?”

“no. “I was just thinking about how powerful the anti-Jeonghoe organization was.”

“This is an organization brought together by none other than Shaolin and shamans. “It will be difficult for Uicheonmaeng to move for a while.”

“That’s not it.”

A look of puzzlement appeared on Gogu’s face.

Xu Liang shook his head and explained calmly.

“It may be true in the eyes of the people, but anyone who knows how political factions work will know that the pressure from the anti-government group is not that great.”

“You’re saying there’s not a lot of pressure?”

“The time when a political faction exerts its greatest power is when it has a cause. “Which one is holding the cause right now, the Uicheon Alliance or the Anti-Jeonghoe?”

“Of course it’s an anti-regime meeting, isn’t it?”

“that’s right. But what is the source that allows that cause to exert its power?”

The source? What does that mean?

Everyone looked at Seo-ryang with puzzled eyes.

“It’s the people.”

“…ah!”

“The reason the political faction can charge forward without looking back when dealing with Sapa or Mado is because the majority of the people support them. It has to be that way. “Because the political faction’s banner of revering loyalty and cooperation is enough to receive the support of the people.”

Xu Liang raised the index fingers of both hands and pressed them together.

“However, the current situation can be seen as an infighting between political factions. “No matter how great a cause you have, in the eyes of the people, it is nothing more than a fight of conflict.”

“But isn’t Lord Uicheon the kind of person who cares about such things?”

“It’s a big problem for the anti-government group.”

“…!”

“Shaolin and shamans were called Taesanbukdu and always listened to the people. They never do anything that causes even the slightest harm to the people. At least we can decide our next steps based on that.”

Ma Dong-pil asked in confusion.

“So, does this mean that the anti-Jeonghoe, which was created with the intention of Lord Sogyo, will not actually cause much damage to the Uicheon Alliance?”

“That’s not right. To be precise, the anti-Jeonghoe itself cannot cause much damage to the Uicheon Alliance. However, if Sapa or the main school gets involved, the story will be different.”

“ah!”

“Old Dam probably knows that too. So I’m going to try to get rid of the banjeonghoe somehow. “Either use the nine factions excluding Shaolin and Shaman, or use a third force.”

“What do you mean by a third force?”

Seo-ryang avoided giving an immediate answer. It was because I wasn’t sure.

After being lost in thought for a moment, his eyes lit up.

“From the fight a few days ago.”

“yes.”

“Surely the Uicheon Alliance’s Musang, Hyeonmudae, and the Iron Blood Fortress troops were together, right?”

“That’s right.”

“….”

“no way?!”

“I hope so, too.”

Xu Liang frowned.

“I don’t know if he’s planning to join hands with Old Man Dam and blow up the Anti-Jeonghoe.”

Everyone was surprised.

Gorumazon said in a somewhat skeptical tone.

“I am sorry, Master So. “Although the Iron Blood Lord is rough, I believe he is a person who is considered to value righteousness quite a bit.”

“Yes, he was actually that kind of person.”

“Oh, that’s right. “You said you’ve met in person?”

“yes.”

“It’s a bit strange that such an iron-blooded lord would join hands with the Uicheon Alliance now…”

I couldn’t bear to say that it couldn’t happen. This is because I was concerned that I might hurt Seoryang’s pride.

Xu Liang shook his head.

“The Iron Blood Lord is definitely a good person. But do you know why he supported my actions?”

“…?”

“It was because I could cut off the starting point of unification of the world, which is what each of the three Kang Ho-seoks hoped for.”

Gorumazon widened his eyes.

“Unfortunately, when I headed to Shandong, I broke my implicit contract with Song Seongju. I hid the Iron Sword Mazon and the Light Demon Corps with the intention of attacking the back of the Iron Blood Fortress. If Seongju Song were not an idiot, he would not know that fact.”

“this…!”

“Even if I hadn’t done that, there is a possibility that Song Seongju would join hands with Uicheon Lord. Although he is a generous person, he is also a person who wants to take control of the world. “You can do anything for that dream.”

Xu Liang chuckled.

“Right. It’s definitely very likely. Old Man Dam was always like this. “Rather than crushing an approaching threat head-on, he is better at disrupting a situation and delivering an unexpected blow.”

“Huh!”

“The way to ensure one’s own safety and at the same time free up the power movement of the Meng is a temporary alliance with Sangvisit. “After forming an alliance with Sangvis Castle, if you tell Sangvis Castle to hold an anti-government meeting, all your worries will disappear.”

The group was left speechless by Seoliang’s shocking interpretation.

Gorumazon opened his mouth.

“Given the circumstances, I think we can guess that, but honestly, I don’t know about this old man.”

It was an honest confession.

Yeo Sang-rin shook her head.

“What Master Xiao said is right.”

“hmm?!”

“No, rather than saying it’s right, we should say that it’s very likely at the moment. “The Lord of Uicheon has a lot to gain from that one alliance.”

Gogu said.

“Of course it is. But there is one problem. Even if the Lord of Uicheon could do that, the Lord of the Iron Blood Castle would join hands with the Lord to gain something.”

“That was from Lord Soo a little while ago….”

“Of course, Lord Soo hit the back of Seongju. It can be seen as an efficient attack that takes advantage of the enemy’s weak spot. At the same time, Seongju also has a dream of unifying the world, so it is not impossible.”

“that’s right.”

“The question is whether the benefits can be shared fairly. The Lord of the Iron Blood Castle is not a fool, so he won’t only order the Lord of Uicheon to do good things, right? They will definitely demand something, and the Lord of Uicheon must give them something worthy of that demand. “Other than that, Mengseong’s only ally is Mana.”

That was a very sharp point.

Seo-ryang also nodded and agreed to what he said.

“The late head of the family is right. If an alliance is formed, old Dam must give the Lord of Iron Blood an equivalent amount. “That’s the way it should be.”

“As a result, unless you know what it is, the statement that the Mengseongs united is nothing more than a hypothesis.”

Xiliang was deep in thought.

‘There is certainly truth in what the late head of the family said. Old Man Dam can gain a lot of benefit by using his iron-blooded nature. But what about iron blood? Although they say they hope for trouble in the central plains for the sake of unifying the world, there is no reason to do so at the expense of loss.’

So, is it still just a suspicion?

‘That can’t be possible… If I were old Dam, I would have unconditionally tried to form an alliance with Iron Blood Castle. And I will definitely succeed. ‘That’s the old man’s way.’

The reason why Seoliang has been able to thrive in Shingyo and the central plains so far is because of his background and the strategy and tactics of hitting the opponent’s back other than military force.

He was very good at that method. And that wasn’t something you could get by working as a sprinkler.

The reason why he was able to use strategic tactics to outmaneuver his enemies and accurately see the interests between factions was because he had seen every single thing he had done next to Dam Sa-yeong.

That’s how well he knew about Damsayeong. In a way, he was like a direct disciple of Dam Sa-young in the field of strategy.

‘Assuming an alliance, what can the old man give to the Lord of Iron Blood? The Iron Blood Lord, who has already unified the four factions, will not have any enemies like Banjeonghoe.’

After being depressed for a moment, Seo-ryang sighed and said.

“For now, let’s rest here for one more day. “There’s quite a lot to think about.”

Early morning the next day.

Jeon Seo-eung flew to Gogu, who was slowly moving toward Hebuk.

“Master Xiao! I received a call from Daesan! “It’s payment!”

Gogu delivered the letter hanging on Jeon Seo-eung’s ankle to Seo-ryang.

Seo-ryang’s eyes became bright when he saw the letter.

“What is it about?”

Puzzle written on everyone’s faces.

Seo-ryang looked at the letter blankly and immediately burst into laughter. It was a laugh mixed with disappointment and surprise.

“Old Dam… I knew that old man was half crazy, but I didn’t know he was this crazy.”

It’s nothing new, but I really couldn’t help but think that way.

“We give up going to Hebei. “I’m going straight south to Hubei.”

“yes?!”

“Mengseong has formed an alliance.”

“omg!”

“Are you saying I really meant it?”

Grumbling.

Xi Liang burned the letter. The blue demonic energy unique to the reigning Demon Emperor seemed to look a little dark.

“The problem is not that Mengseong formed an alliance. If this is done incorrectly, the entire world will be swept up in war. Shit! “Why now!”

I was shocked.

I wondered if he had given something to the Lord of Iron Blood to lure him in, but that wasn’t the case. Dam Sa-yeong did not intend to give anything to the Lord of the Iron Blood Castle, but forced him to make a choice by dragging him into a terrible future.

“You crazy bastard. “You’re thinking of messing with the Heavenly Demon.”

A half-seon strongman who can be said to be the strongest in Protestant history.

Lee Cheon-sang was heading north.
