Chronicles of the Demon Faction - Chapter 368
Episode 368 May there be glory under the feet of the Heavenly Demon (3)
“Oh, this is true.”
Damsayoung sighed.
“There are no more seeds left.”
The number of colorful flowers that used to brighten the garden has noticeably decreased.
Almost half of the flowers withered because of the demonic cult leader. Although I had no regrets about the flower that had already fulfilled its duty, it was clear that a problem had arisen in the future.
“Anyway, it’s really puzzling.”
Dam Sa-yeong slowly stroked his beard.
“How did you decipher the blood clot? Until now, only one person has deciphered the blood secretion.”
Even though he eventually died, he was a man who struggled for decades to rid himself of his blood.
In the first place, there is no antidote to the poison called blood clot. In order to remove blood clots, you have to dig into the flesh and scrape out the bugs stuck to the intestines, but if you do that, anyone has no choice but to die.
Of course, there are other ways to separate blood vessels. If you are one of the greatest masters of magic and science in the past or present, or if you refine your true energy to the level of deity, you will be able to be free from the hardships of blood.
“He’s a really brilliant guy. Or did the Demonic Cult conduct experiments on blood pressure?”
Dam Sa-young glanced back.
There, I saw Gong Yachi looking down at the entire map of the central plains and contemplating something.
“Do you know anything?”
Gong Yachi raised his head.
“yes?”
“How does the leader of the Demonic Cult know how to decipher blood pressure?”
“I do not know.”
“But haven’t we been running in lockstep for months? “You must know something about him.”
Gong Yachi shook his head.
“I actually don’t know much about the Demonic Cult’s small sect leader. And most of them are things that Lord Maeng also knows.”
“is it?”
Dam Sa-yeong did not ask Gong Ya-chi more questions than necessary.
“So does the picture come out at a glance?”
“yes. “There is just one catch.”
“It’s a catch?”
“It is the power of the Demon Cultist.”
Dam Sa-young’s eyes lit up.
“yes.”
The leader of the Heavenly Demon Church of the time is shrouded in mystery. The only thing known is that his name is Lee Cheon-sang and that he is the ninth absolute master in the history of Shinto to receive the title of Heavenly Demon.
If it’s natural, it’s natural. If the Demon Cult had been active in the midfield, much of the information about the Demon Cult might have leaked out. However, the Demonic Cult has done little external activity for over thirty years.
Not only the Demon Cult leader but also the history of the Demon Cult is ambiguous. However, we could only guess the approximate power by adding the past history and the thirty years of time.
‘He must have built up the strength he had during his heyday.’
Gong Yachi continued.
“If we assume that the Demonic Cult’s martial arts are absolutely invincible, then building an information network may not have much meaning. “No matter what the Demon Cultist’s personality is, if he has absolute confidence in his own strength, he will be able to get here faster than anyone else.”
Dam Sa-young’s eyes lit up.
“You are right. However, the Demon Clan crouched in Hundred Thousand Mountains for over thirty years. Even if he has absolutely invincible martial arts, I don’t know what he’s pursuing. “As we don’t know where things will go, it is necessary to build a more detailed information network than ever before.”
“I think so too. However, the Demon Cultist is a being that all demons existing in this world look up to as gods. “I don’t think he’s that type of person, but if you step into this world, you need to show flashy moves for your followers.”
“Well, you’re right.”
Damsayoung frowned.
“Well, no matter how great your martial arts skills are, you can’t handle the heat with one hand. “This is why it is impossible to rule the world alone.”
“That’s right.”
“For now, let’s assume it’s the best in the world.”
There was no contact from Kang Woo-chang.
By now, it would have been normal to send a call without fail. No contact meant he had failed.
‘It’s definitely amazing. Or does this mean that the boundaries of the Demonic Cult are so strong?’
If Kang Woo-chang went into hiding, he himself would be at risk. Of course, even if you were attacked directly, you wouldn’t be immune.
“That’s right. “It is a monster that raised the leader of the Demonic Cult, so it would not be unreasonable to say that he is the best in the world.”
“hmm.”
Although it could not be helped, Damsayoung felt a little uncomfortable.
‘The Demon Cult Master is that strong?’
Regardless of whether they are the Jeong Sect or the Sa Sect, the martial people who roam the central plains feel an instinctive fear of the Demonic Cult.
This was inevitable because for the past hundreds of years, the Demonic Cult had fought against the Central Plains single-handedly. Regardless of who started the war first, it was not an easy match even though only one organization was fighting against the Central Plains continent with no end in sight.
The Demonic Cult was that strong. Naturally, the perception that the head of the Demonic Cult was the epitome of strength was inevitable.
But Dam Sa-yeong was also confident.
He did not simply occupy the position of leader through political power. Even excluding his deep inner world and secretly raised subordinates, his true power was no less powerful than anyone else’s.
Dam Sa-young, realizing that the strange discomfort in her heart was jealousy, smiled slightly.
‘It seems I still have the warrior’s desire to win. ‘This is it.’
After all, if you take control of the world, you can crush anyone stronger than you.
Power was as important to him as force. This is because the minimum foundation for controlling the world comes from power.
That’s why this secret fight was important. The one who wins this secret struggle will be the closest to being a loser in the world.
“So you’re saying there isn’t much movement from the Demonic Cult?”
“There is no report yet.”
Dam Sa-young chuckled.
“If you don’t raise your butt again this time, you can exclude the demonic sword from the battle between the four masters.”
“What will you do if it moves?”
“There is no need to think long. The world will be watching the movements of the Demon Cultist. “I have no choice but to take advantage of that opportunity to resolve all the problems and start a proper three-way battle.”
It’s a three-way battle, but since they’ve already joined hands with Iron Blood Castle, it will be a two-versus-one battle.
Gong Yachi thought.
‘He is a scary person.’
Dam Sa-yeong’s mind was definitely on the rise. By forming an alliance with Iron Blood Castle, you can manipulate the situation to your side’s advantage no matter what option is presented.
This wasn’t something anyone could do.
‘Surprisingly, this part… is very similar to Lord Xiao.’
Innate distribution and the drive to push forward without looking back once a choice has been made, as well as a keen eye to catch the enemy off guard.
The more I look at him, the more he resembles Lord Sogyo. Although their martial arts skills, age, experience, and paths were different, the two had so many similarities that they could be considered twins, at least when it came to resourcefulness.
“Let’s stop thinking and go to the meeting room.”
“Oh, do you want to?”
“If Demon Clan Master hasn’t moved yet, there’s plenty of room. Even though they are old people who have become my puppets, I have to comfort them when I have to comfort them.”
“Perhaps Hwang Bose will raise the issue and ask about follow-up actions.”
“I guess so.”
“In reality, the side that attacked the Hwangbo family was not the Sogyoju of the Demonic Cult, but King Biyo’s side. “They might try to use that as an excuse to put pressure on the leader.”
The master of the Sapa defeated the Hwangbo family, but Maeng Juran actually joined hands with the Cheolhyeolseong, an alliance of the Sapa. This was clearly something that could be criticized.
Dam Sa-young chuckled.
“Of course you should. A ruler must not only oppress. It is also important to let them out so that they learn to climb appropriately. “If you climb up like that and get scolded a few times, you will eventually give in from the bottom of your heart.”
“….”
“If you think about it, it’s painful. “Hwangbo is also Hwangbo, but he lost Hyeonmu and Gwanghon… Well, the loss was quite big, but he gained the Iron Blood Castle, so that was enough.”
Gong Yachi’s eyes wavered.
‘This part is completely different from Master Xiao.’
Dam Sa-young sees Maeng’s power literally as the words of Janggi. Even though all of them lost their lives due to his orders, he felt no emotion.
Seoliang was different.
Although he is a man who uses all kinds of vicious techniques to attack his enemies, he takes terrible care of his own people. When one of my people was harmed, Seoryang was the one who would leave all problems behind and go to the end of the continent to take revenge.
This was the reason why people followed Seoliang. At least he is someone who will shed tears before his own death.
He was fundamentally different from Dam Sa-young.
“Get all the documents you’ve collected so far. “Since there are no pillars of heaven and earth, it seems like you have become my right-hand man.”
“It is an honour.”
“Hehehe.”
It was then.
Gurgling!
Gong Yachi’s eyes lit up.
“Could you please wait a moment?”
“Did you get a call from Haomun?”
“I think so.”
The Maengjubu’s secret operation room here was a room that could only be accessed by those who had received permission from the Maengjubu. The very fact that he allowed Jeon Seo-eung and Jeon Seo-gu to be received in a place like this proved Dam Sa-yeong’s faith in Gong Yachi.
Gurgling!
With the sound of flapping wings, a bright blue dove sat on the window sill.
Gong Ya-chi, who removed the chimney from Jeon Seo-gu’s ankle, read the letter.
“omg!”
Gong Yachi’s face turned pale.
Dam Sa-yeong was inwardly curious.
‘Did you know that guy would make an expression like that?’
He was a man who confidently came to Uicheon Alliance alone and proved himself useful. Besides, isn’t that guy named Gong Yachi who handles all kinds of information in the world and won’t even blink at certain things?
“What’s going on? “Did you say the Demonic Cult was moving?”
Gong Yachi swallowed his saliva.
“It looks like the Demon Cultist has moved!”
Dam Sa-young’s eyes lit up.
“Hmm, finally, that heavy butt…”
“But there hasn’t been much movement in Hundred Thousand Mountains yet.”
“What does that mean?”
“It means that most of the Demonic Cult’s forces did not move. “It looks like the religious leader is heading north with only about seven hundred troops!”
Damsayoung frowned.
‘seven hundred? ‘Someone who becomes the head of a demonic religion?’
That couldn’t be possible, right?
“Are you sure about the Demon Cult leader?”
“The palanquin on which the Demon Cultist rides is called the Demon Emperor’s Vehicle. “The palanquin that the informants saw is definitely the Demon Emperor!”
“Maybe the leader isn’t on board?”
Gong Yachi shook his head.
“Even if there were two heavens, that would be impossible. Even if you are Lord Xiao Jiao, you cannot ride the Demon Emperor. “This is because the Demon Emperor is a symbol of authority that only the sect leader can ride.”
“Hmm.”
Interest arose on Dam Sa-young’s face.
“So you crawled out without any further contact? “People are really in a hurry.”
“What would you like to do?”
“How to do it. “It’s been a while since he took charge of the midfield, so let’s see how he does around the world.”
With those words, Dam Sa-young, who was about to leave the conference room, hesitated.
“…Hmm.”
“Why are you doing that?”
“The religious leader is that strong?”
Gong Yachi’s eyes sparkled.
Damsayoung smiled.
“Didn’t you say that if your Demonic Cult Master has absolute invincible martial arts, there is no need to measure his personality?”
“…?”
“Let’s see.” “What an amazing person the leader is.”
“If you’re not careful… it could be a useless sacrifice.”
“Is there any futility in sacrifice? Just understanding the enemy’s strength means that the pieces of chess have exhausted their usefulness.”
“…!”
Damsayoung turned around again.
“Contact Seongju Song through payment. “Let’s each pull out a sword and send it away.”
