Chronicles of the Demon Faction - Chapter 369

Episode 369 Be glorious at the feet of the Heavenly Demon (4)

It was truly a majestic, mysterious, and at the same time awe-inspiring sight.

Jump and jump.

A huge palanquin was moving, filling the main street.

It was a surprisingly large and jaw-droppingly gorgeous palanquin.

Each of the swaying golden threads sparkled as if they were covered with real gold. The roof of the kiln, which was almost the size of a house, was studded with countless jewels, each emitting a brilliant light, and each and every one of them was genuine and a luxury item crafted by craftsmen.

Even if just one of the precious stones, which were difficult to count, was sold, enough money would be enough to feed a village for half a year. Moreover, the kiln seemed very sturdy and comfortable, as did the craftsman who made it.

And as many as fifty well-built men came together to lift the palanquin. It was such an enormous palanquin that even the emperor of a country had never even seen it.

People looked at the palanquin with eyes full of curiosity and fear.

Tap, tap, tap.

The expressions on the faces of the fifty men holding the palanquin and the hundreds of men on horseback surrounding them were equally expressionless.

Strangely enough, the sound of the horses’ hooves kept an eerily accurate beat. Even though hundreds of horses were moving, it seemed as if only one horse was moving.

God’s actions that make the earth shake.

What’s even more surprising is that I don’t feel any signs of popularity from the hundreds of men who are clearly martial people.

Like an army led by a ghost, or like a hallucination only visible to the eyes of a mentally ill person.

The army of the world of desire that served God was moving so quietly.

How far did it travel?

We crossed several mountains and several villages. A pale river appeared in front of them as they moved forward at a speed that was neither slow nor fast.

The river wasn’t wide, but it wasn’t wide enough for that big palanquin to pass through. To cross the river, a boat was needed for all these people. Otherwise, I had no choice but to go back to the river.

Oooooh!

A low, dull sound rang out as if the entire midfield was shaking.

Ugh! Wooooow!

The incredibly ornate palanquin was suddenly enveloped in a dark fog.

A miracle happened then.

Slurp.

The fifty men had already let go of their grip on the palanquin.

It comes to mind. The kiln.

A palanquin the size of a house, weighing as much as a house, was floating in the air.

“omg!”

“A ghost?!”

The people who followed and hid and watched them out of curiosity all looked like they were about to faint.

The palanquin floating in the air crossed the river on its own. It was a mysterious appearance that was difficult to believe even after seeing it.

and.

with a splash! with a splash!

Hundreds of horsemen jumped into the river as if they had been waiting. The men carrying the palanquin also crossed the river leisurely, their bodies unwavering, as if they were walking on bare ground.

“what?!”

“Over there! “It’s dangerous!”

While watching the mysterious scene in fascination, a woman cried out in a voice filled with great fear and small concern.

But they didn’t look back.

Soon, all the horsemen and people went into the river.

“Oh no!”

“what should I do! “Don’t you need to contact someone?!”

“No… just by looking at them, they are martial people…”

But in the meantime, the palanquin was slowly crossing the river. People rubbed their eyes and looked at each other, wondering if they were seeing something.

And then I realized. That they are not seeing things in vain.

I realized that it was an obvious fact and a reality that a palanquin floating in the air could cross a fairly large river.

How long has it been like that?

By the time the huge palanquin had almost crossed the river.

Fuwaaaaak!

“omg!”

“You crossed that?!”

Hundreds of horsemen who had fallen into the river were appearing one by one on the other side.

It was a human and a horse, and although it looked like it was drenched in water, its expression did not change. Even the horses didn’t do the usual touring.

The palanquin, which had crossed the river, slowly lowered to the ground.

Huh.

A heavy wind blew dust in all directions.

Before we knew it, the fifty-year-old men who had arrived under the kiln naturally built the kiln. Then the dark fog that had swirled around the entire kiln disappeared.

Tap, tap, tap.

It was as if nothing had happened.

It seems like a very natural move.

The mounted unit centered on the palanquin moved again. Suddenly, a haze rose from the bodies of horses and people. Then not a single drop of water remained on their bodies.

“Unbelievable!”

“Ooh, are we collectively possessed by a ghost?!”

“oh my god…!”

Leaving the murmur of people behind, they walked at a leisurely pace.

One day passed, then two days passed.

The rumor that spread from the southern part of the central plains had already reached the central and northern parts.

“A palanquin as big as a high-ranking official’s house is moving!”

“Hey, you’re exaggerating too much. “From what I heard, it’s not that big, it’s almost as big as a house.”

“anyway! “Isn’t it said that the palanquin floated freely in the air and crossed the river?”

“Someone says it’s an army of ghosts.”

“Where in the world are there ghosts?”

“No, but who are they? No matter how much I think about it, I can’t figure out its identity!”

“Because it’s a ghost! Or maybe a ghost!”

“Hey you guys!”

“Maybe it’s just a rumor. “Don’t they say that you don’t respond when people talk to you and that you move around without sleeping?”

“her!”

“That’s right. Now that I think about it, there is something suspicious about it. People say they are not walking that fast, but they say they have already reached the central part of Honam, right? “Does this make sense?”

“It might be possible if you’re a devil in hell….”

“Hey!”

Many people debated the existence of the palanquin. Some dismissed it as just a rumor, while others thought it was the movement of a supernatural being like a ghost. Someone also said that a magician unknown to the world was practicing evil magic.

No one has come close to the truth. This is because it is something that cannot be understood by human common sense.

however.

Even if you don’t believe all the rumors, there are people who know who they are.

And there were definitely people trying to contact them.

“That way.”

“Right.”

Tao Jeong-gyeong frowned and looked to the side.

Next to him was an elderly man who radiated evil energy like a ghost. He was a person who not only possessed morale but also radiated sword energy that was beyond imagination.

He was standing with his arms folded with his sword in his armor, and it looked like a bamboo tree and a well-forged sword. If it weren’t for the fraud that was being spewed out so loudly that I was sick of it, I would have thought it was a rare inspection in the world.

“Anyway, Iron Blood Castle sent you.”

“I didn’t know you were coming either.”

“Your mouth is still rotten. “I don’t know, but I would have lived ten years longer than you.”

“People shouldn’t try to get respect based on their age.”

The voice of Cha-sik, the Samhwan Ghost Sword of the Iron-Blooded Saint, was horrifyingly rough and ferocious.

Do Jeong-gyeong, who was glaring at Cha-sik with cold eyes, smiled for a moment.

“Anyway, the Lord of the Iron Blood Castle sent you here.”

“Don’t talk about the Lord of the castle carelessly.”

“I heard your student had a pretty serious accident?”

For a moment, death appeared in Cha Sik’s eyes.

“Shut up.”

“Oh, was it a sensitive part? “I apologize.”

It was an apology, but not an apology at all.

I felt like going straight to the point where I wanted to stab him, but Cha-sik held back. No matter how much I disliked the other person, I could not disobey the order given by the Lord of the Castle.

‘Shit.’

This was all because of that ugly disciple.

He brought in a guy who seemed to have a knack for cutting and raised him as his disciple. He was a guy who wandered around the back alleys, rummaging through food waste, so he had no parents or a name.

I personally gave him the surname Cha and raised him as if I were his own child. Then, within a few years, he reached the peak and became a recognized expert in the castle, and soon became the head of the guard guarding the castle lord’s concubine.

I thought the tea meal wasn’t bad. Even though he was the head of the concubine’s guard and not the head of the castle, the Lord of Seong’s affection for the concubine was great. No, it could be said that it was a great honor to be the head of the guard of the Lord of Seong’s inner circle. Cha Sik was proud of his student.

It was definitely like that until the pair were kidnapped by the demonic cult leader.

‘Damn you! Are you staining Master’s face?!’

After returning to the castle, the merciful Lord of the castle did not give his disciple any punishment other than a reduction in salary.

However, Cha Sik could not forgive his disciple. I was angry, but I couldn’t ignore the eyes around me.

So he cut off one of his disciple’s ears.

I wanted to tear off one of his arms, but I couldn’t match his swordsmanship with one arm. If there had been a heir other than him, I would have killed him without any hesitation.

The anger that could not be resolved was directed directly to the Demonic Cult.

‘A devil? under! ‘Let me see for myself how much of a bastard he is.’

Do Jeong-gyeong spoke as if reading his mind.

“Don’t look in vain. “The Demon Cultist’s martial arts skills must be close to the best in the world.”

“I told you to shut up.”

“Stupid, it’s the same as before. Let me say it again. It means that he can be stronger than your castle lord or our lord. “You won’t have to fight, but if you want to escape properly, you have to control your mind first.”

Cha Sik did not answer. It seemed like he was going to cut Do Jeong-gyeong’s head off if he continued to talk more.

But he wasn’t wrong. In addition, Do Jeong-gyeong was also an expert who had risen from the Third Elder of the Uicheon Alliance to the Second Elder a year ago. If you fight someone like this, you won’t be safe.

At that time, the steady sound of horses’ hooves sounded in the distance.

“come.”

Cha Sik’s eyes lit up.

Do Jeong-gyeong had a relaxed expression. However, the slight trembling around his eyes proved that he was nervous.

After a while, a group of people appeared.

“…!”

“This…”

Cha Sik and Do Jeong Kyung’s faces turned pale.

Tap, tap, tap.

These people show no signs of being popular.

But the two masters could tell. The men on horseback and those carrying palanquins are pushing their inner strength to the limit.

His ability to manage bets was so masterful that not only did he not reveal his demonic energy, but he even killed people’s pretense.

There are a whopping seven hundred such fearsomely talented people.

‘This can’t be right!’

Do Jeong-gyeong looked back without realizing it. It was to see our troops located ten miles away from here.

‘It’s no match for me.’

The unit wasn’t the problem. I don’t know if I can survive even if only three or four of them come forward right now.

“…Heavenly Demon Army.”

Do Jeong-gyeong looked at Cha-sik.

Chasik swallowed his saliva and said.

“It must be the Heavenly Demon Army, the strongest unit of the Demonic Cult.”

Tao Jeong-gyeong also knew about the notoriety of the Cheonma Army. But I never imagined it would be such a huge unit.

Eventually, the distance between the Cheonma Army and the two masters narrowed to within ten pieces.

Do Jeong-gyeong took a deep breath for a moment and opened her mouth.

“Stop right there! We are from Meng City…!”

At that time, something black flashed within the curtain covering the center of the palanquin.

Quaaaang! bang!

Along with the heavy drinking, Do Jeong-gyeong and Cha-sik’s bodies burst into pieces and burst into flames.

A drowsy voice came out from within the curtain, as if mocking the two who had turned to ashes without even being able to scream.

“let’s go.”

Heeheeheehee!!

For the first time, the lead horse toured. It was a loud roar that could be compared to that of a dragon.

And so the palanquin moved again.

Without stopping even once until we reach northern Honam.
