Chronicles of the Demon Faction - Chapter 471
Episode 471 Imperial Palace Wind Cloud (5)
“Huh! after!”
Gwangmazon took a deep breath and his face was very flushed.
“Is this your first time? What about all of us playing in midfield?”
“exactly.”
Gorumazon said with a smile.
“Isn’t it truly amazing? “Our religious leader.”
“You’re the leader, so of course you’re amazing.”
“In less than a year, all the old senators were kicked out. “It’s so unexpected that I feel a little sad.”
“Hey man. “Why is this disappointing?”
“Isn’t this the battlefield we will burn for the last time? “I’m both grateful and sad.”
Gwangmazon smiled.
“If you say something like that in front of the next generation of demons, you will be frowned upon.”
“Why is that?”
“Once this fight is over, they will live in a world of peace. Peace… That would be nice, but wouldn’t there be a chance to fight the enemy vigorously?”
Gorumazon burst out laughing.
“That too. When a demon is truly a demon, it’s time to fight. “It makes me sad to think that way.”
“They said that if you get one, you have to give up one. “I don’t know how long the peace we have built will last, but at least the next generation of demons will live well in a world of peace without much trouble.”
“Main are also people. Since fighting is so good, why not just have peace? As Wonju said, I don’t know how long that peace will last, but at least enjoying it while you can is a blessing.”
“That’s right.”
Gwangmazon’s eyes lit up.
“You can see it slowly.”
A very high mountain.
These were two people who could see through distances that could not be seen by ordinary eyes. A group of cavalry was seen raising clouds across the plain hundreds of miles away from here.
“Maybe it’s because it’s so far away, but I can’t really feel the energy waves.”
“That’s right.”
“But when it comes to the Iron King, he is certainly not a force worth taking lightly. In addition, the steel casting technology of the imperial palace is always discussed at the peak of the Central Plains. “With peak martial prowess and light steel armor, the power of the Iron King’s army, which forms a camp and charges, is sure to be great.”
“Especially in such a plain area, you will be able to demonstrate power beyond your capabilities.”
“I guess so.”
Gorumazon, who was quietly looking at the Iron King, had a moment of faintness in his eyes.
“Really…”
“Why are you doing that?”
“It’s because it reminds me of the old days. No, I wouldn’t go so far as to say it was a long time ago.”
“hmm?”
“When you were a small religious leader, you once beat up a damn woman named King Biyo.”
Gwangmazon nodded.
“I know. You are truly amazing. “Of all the schools in our school’s history, there is probably no one who has accumulated as many brilliant military achievements as our leader.”
“Anyway, the injury was quite serious at the time. After that, we moved north together and fought against the troops of the Iron Blood Fortress and the Uicheon Alliance.”
Gorumazon’s smile deepened.
“Although it was an urgent time, when I think about it now, it is a memory of its own. Then I thought “I will burn them all down so that they can never approach Lord Xiaojiao.”
It was a truly intense moment. Since reaching this level, Gorumazon had never fought such an urgent fight.
“As a result, I abandoned it, but my feelings now are the same as they were then.”
His dim eyes gradually became more heartless and murderous.
“Shouldn’t we let those ruthless bastards dare to reach the cult leader?”
“Of course. By the way, I heard it was in the southern part of Hubuk six days ago, but now it is in the northern part of Honam. “I thought it would end with maintaining the front line, but metallurgy has come a long way.”
“Has any of them caught us?”
“Of course there won’t be. “We can see it because we are on the mountain peak, and even if there were extreme demon experts among them, they would not be able to notice our presence.”
“If you do, shouldn’t you let me know soon? “If we advance any further, we may be completely destroyed.”
“I guess so.”
Gwangmazon looked back and asked.
“Are you ready?”
“….”
“You’re still blunt. “When you are ready, please descend slowly.”
Kugugoogung!
The entire mountain shook.
The intense vibration was so great that it seemed to reach the sky. Is it like thunder rising from the ground? The movement of the Iron King’s army approaching from hundreds of miles away could be seen to come to a halt.
Two mazons standing empty-handed like immortals.
And behind them, 1,000 troops wearing black armor began to jump out in a heap.
Crumbling!
An invincible unit that advances by destroying all the trees and rocks in front of it.
Although they did not have great armor or horses like the Iron King, they were infamous throughout the world just by their existence. Even in the 1,000-year history of the Heavenly Demon Church, it was the strongest unit of the Heavenly Demon Church that still aroused the fear of the martial arts people, despite having the largest number of expeditions.
Heavenly Demon Army.
Among the four armies, the Cheonma Lee Army (天魔魔二軍), the highest ranked army, attacked with such force that it seemed as if the entire mountain would be turned black.
Rumbling!
There was a loud noise that shook the ground and dust rose up. And then, an explosive magical energy burst out as if it was going to eat up all the thick dust.
Phew.
The wind blew.
In the blink of an eye, I went from the top of the mountain to the plain below the mountain. The army of Cheonma Yi, who arrived on the plain, quickly formed a wide array.
No matter how far away you are, you cannot be unaware of the presence of monsters that have come down from the mountain’s surface.
In this way, the Four Forces of the Cheonma Army and the Iron King Army faced off at a distance of several hundred miles.
It wasn’t just here.
In Gangseo Province, adjacent to Honam, two Majons and a unit of the Cheonma Army confronted the Iron King’s army.
Does it end there? It wasn’t so.
The divine techniques of a master who has reached the extreme are beyond imagination. When the Iron Blood Fortress pushed the Iron King’s army into the two regions of Honam and Gangseo, the Heavenly Demon Church, which deployed four mazons and two Cheonma armies, dispersed the remaining five mazons and spread them to Hubei and Zhejiang.
How much of an impact could sending just a few Mazons have on the vast world?
In reality, they didn’t have much of an impact on their own. It was not because of their martial arts skills, but because of their numbers. They were masters of Manbubudang, but at the same time, they were only one master. There were clear limits to the operation itself.
That’s where the seven magic families came forward.
They tightly controlled Guizhou, Honam, and Gangseo, and together with the Gangseo Chamber of Commerce, they spread information throughout the southern part of the Central Plains.
The entire Old Mazon was dispatched. Even the Heavenly Demon Army, the strongest army of the Heavenly Demon Church, came forward.
The terrifying information quickly spread across the Yangtze River to the north.
The Majon and the Heavenly Demon army that pushed up as if waiting for the movement of the Iron King Palse could hardly be called the Heavenly Demon Church itself. This made the whole world know that this was the will of the Heavenly Demon Church. They showed us a distribution telling us to come in whenever we were ready.
Underneath the sharp confrontation, shocking news came like a wave from the North.
“Everyone knows the evil deeds of the Demonic Cult without having to list them one by one. The Iron Blood Castle will determine that their existence is no longer helpful to the world and will not allow them to set foot on the sacred land of Central Plains. “For his sake, I predict that I will be willing to risk all-out war.”
The strongmen were embarrassed.
Although they are considered to be the same powerful three generations, the strength of the Iron Blood Castle was clearly lower than that of the Heavenly Demon God Church. They may have hidden powers, but it is no different from the Heavenly Demon Church.
In other words, it was nonsense for Sanghyeolseong to have predicted war first. To attack a large number of troops with a small number of troops, thorough prior preparation was necessary.
Aside from that, the Heavenly Demon Church was an invincible organization that boasted of being undefeated for a thousand years. Are you going to go to war with such an organization? It was no different from hitting a rock with an egg.
however.
Although a crushing defeat is expected for Iron Blood Castle, war is war. People were afraid that the war would reach their area. One-tenth of the people in the Honam and Gangseo regions fled to other regions.
In a short period of time, the situation in Gangho changed drastically. The martial people looked like martial people, and the yangmin looked at the two large groups with anxious eyes.
And after some time.
The man who called himself the Crown Prince headed to the front wearing golden armor and riding a white horse as white as snow.
“There is an empire in this land, and in the empire there is an emperor. However, when the imperial palace lost its power, law and order collapsed, and in the central plains, which became a land of lawlessness, the so-called demons appeared and disrupted the world. Unable to let that happen any longer, he decided to step forward, and Iron Blood Castle willingly became a subject of the empire to end the turbulent times. Accordingly, Gwain appointed Sanggeumbaek, the Lord of the Iron Blood Castle, as the Great General of Geumuido Shincheonji, and pledged to subdue the rebel group, the Demonic Cult, to make the empire’s majesty known to the world.”
People were surprised.
The crown prince was the eldest son of the emperor and had the highest status to ascend to the throne of the next emperor.
The imperial palace has now lost its power and only maintained its reputation. The second-in-command of the imperial palace suddenly stepped forward to subdue the Demonic Cult together with the Iron Blood Castle.
This truly caused a huge stir.
In fact, to the civilians, the existence of the martial arts people was a threat more terrible than ghosts. This is because, with its power beyond humanity, it causes crimes in various places, promotes strife, and destroys harmonious lives with great ease.
The world ruled by such martial people did not bring happiness to the common people.
Of course, it was the same for the empire. The fall of the empire was because the Murim people and civilians, tired of the tyranny of generations of corrupt emperors and treacherous officials who flattered them, joined forces and revolted.
Taxes were harsh and controls were terrible. To the so-called high-ranking people, the common people of the world were no different from livestock that fed them.
But at least at that time, the martial arts people did not go on a rampage. Although there were people who occasionally caused accidents, it was because the warriors who upheld imperial law and morality caught all those who committed evil deeds.
In this way, the crown prince of the imperial palace, who had lost his power and only maintained his name, appeared in the central land occupied by the Murim people and set out to correct the laws of the world.
The common people were enthusiastic.
No, to be more precise, the common people north of the Yangtze River were enthusiastic. The common people south of the Yangtze River, that is, in the Heavenly Demon Church territory, were not pleased with the appearance of the crown prince.
What is the reason?
It was because it was worth living. After devouring Gangseo Sanghoe, the Church of the Heavenly Demon completely rewrote the laws of the south.
Of course, it was realistically impossible to make life affordable for everyone right away.
However, he spared no effort in providing financial support so that people who were starving to death could eat one meal a day, and he established free educational institutions for families who could not afford to send their children to school.
He treated members of the National Assembly well and beat up unscrupulous black gangsters like catching rats. Gangsters did not re-emerge in areas once swept by the Heavenly Demon Church.
It was slow, but step by step, it showed people clear results. I don’t know how long the effect of this policy will last, but at least so far it has achieved sufficient results.
That was the foundation that Xiliang and Hu Yaosheng had built over the past six months. For half a year, they devoted their energies to strengthening their internal strength rather than attacking the enemy.
At this moment, that effort paid off.

“Lord! The situation in the South…!”
“heard.”
Dam Sa-yeong’s eyes became sharply distorted.
“They invested an astronomical amount of money to gain public opinion… That’s quite a lot for a demonic bastard.”
It was then.
“We’re in big trouble!”
“What’s going on?”
“There is an intruder in the imperial palace!”
“…!!”
