Chronicles of the Demon Faction - Chapter 476
Episode 476 Owner of the World (1)
“The Demon Lord has made contact with the Seven Families Allied Forces! “We will be able to reach the main mountain in three days!”
Xiliang breathed a sigh of relief.
“That’s it.”
“Yes, success.”
Now that we have entered Gangseo, the mission can be considered a complete success. The Chilga and the Magons are holding out in Gangseo. Since it is the domain of the Heavenly Demon Church in the first place, even the Iron Blood Castle would not dare attack it.
I was finally able to put my mind at ease.
“Good job, general.”
“Did I do anything? “It’s all thanks to the field experts.”
It was just humility. Without proper deployment of forces and timely control of information, this operation would have been difficult to succeed.
The result of the best efforts of both the military and field engineers.
Now all that remains is how to deal with the emperor.
“Let’s not relax until the end.”
“Yes, the Xinjiang Department has already dispatched ten people. “We will be able to bring you back safely.”
“good.”
Seo-ryang whetted his appetite.
“I guess being a leader isn’t something anyone can do. “I think this will turn my whole stomach.”
“haha.”
I am finally revealing my true feelings that I was very nervous. Hu Yaosheng burst into laughter at Xu Liang’s humane reaction.
“We will handle the rest. “Please go in and get some shuteye.”
It was Seoryang who had never been away from Daejeon since the Demon King was excommunicated. Even if you were an extreme demon expert, your stamina would have been depleted.
Xu Liang shook his head.
“The mission was successful, but we still don’t know how they will come out. “You have to keep an eye on it.”
“of course. And that’s our job.”
“Oh, is that so?”
“yes. So, just go in and rest. “If there is anything worth noting, I will report it right away.”
Seo-ryang massaged the back of his neck.
“Sure.”
It was truly an act that did not even qualify as a religious leader. But you have to get used to it. Because I can’t always be this nervous every time I send out an operation.
Seoryang, who was heading home with a sigh, suddenly had a thought and left the Demon God’s Palace.
The place where Seoliang arrived was Hyeolhongak.
“Tsk! How do you feel? “You took a hit, right?”
“…I’ll give you just a few cents.”
“Have you ever heard of never leaving one hand and never leaving the other?”
“no.”
“You know it now. “Once something is placed, it will never be returned.”
“….”
“Huh, didn’t they say you’re too big to fail? “Think about it.”
Joo Seo-yoon stared at the checkerboard with bloodshot eyes. I was so focused that I didn’t think I would notice even if lightning struck next to me.
Seoryang, who was looking in from the window, burst out laughing without realizing it.
‘It’s peaceful.’
For the past few days, Shingyo has been in a state of emergency. It was natural to kidnap the emperor of the world.
But this was a world completely removed from such urgency.
Hyeon Cheon Jin-in glanced at the window.
Xu Liang smiled and waved his hand.
Hyeoncheonjinin silently pointed with his chin toward the back garden. He meant that he would not go out, so go there.
Seo-ryang nodded and headed to Huwon.
Ugh.
There was a red pine tree in the sponsor pavilion.
A subtle gold glow shimmered from Red Pine’s body, which was sitting cross-legged.
Even if I tried not to reveal it as much as possible, the Buddhist energy couldn’t help but come out. The sight of anti-demonic fire energy soaring within the Heavenly Demon Church that follows demons was strangely heterogeneous.
Seoliang leaned next to the tree and looked at the scene for a long time.
After a while.
“Are you here?”
“I’m here.”
Red Pine said with an embarrassed face.
“I’m sorry. “As I was concentrating on my luck, I lost my energy without realizing it.”
“It’s okay. “Everyone knows anyway.”
“Hehehe.”
Anti-demon fire itself can affect magic power. So, he was managing the internal affairs alone in a place where there was no one.
Seo-ryang climbed up onto the pavilion and asked.
“Is that gratuitous power?”
“That’s right.”
“That’s amazing. “I knew that there was no limit to divine skill, but I didn’t know it would be to that extent.”
“Did you read it?”
“What is it that you can’t read when you’re looking at it?”
Red Pine burst out in admiration.
“You are truly amazing. “He is the master of the Heavenly Demon Religion, but his understanding of King Jeongjong’s martial arts is also unique.”
Xu Liang chuckled.
“Don’t you say it’s a dissuasion? “After looking into this and that, I ended up with both spiritual and magical skills.”
“haha.”
The two people sat across from each other in the pavilion.
Seoliang looked at Jeokpine’s complexion. My complexion looked better than I expected.
But he knew. The problem is that the face of someone who has exhausted their vitality to the point that their life is in immediate danger is so good.
‘Reflection of light.’
The flame just before life ends is the brightest. Such was the state of the red pine tree now.
However, the process was noticeably longer than others. This meant that the level he had achieved was amazing.
“There really isn’t much left now.”
“That’s right.”
It is rude, regardless of time or place, to tell someone who is about to die that their time is running short.
However, Xiliang’s words were without hesitation, and Jeoksong also accepted his words without any hesitation.
Jeoksong was a person who had already become detached from life and death. So, you can say things like this with ease.
“Anyway, are you okay?”
“What’s not okay?”
“My eyes are blurry. “It’s not easy for someone like you to have a face like that.”
Seo-ryang whetted his appetite.
“I was in a lot of pain.”
“hmm?”
“Being the head of an organization is something I can’t do.”
Seoliang told me what had happened so far.
Red Pine’s eyes deepened.
“Did you succeed?”
“It will arrive in three days.”
“…haha.”
They kidnapped the emperor of the world. I had no idea where this kind of distribution was coming from.
Red Pine closed his eyes.
Even Jeoksong, who was considered the best expert, seemed quite shocked by the fact that the emperor had been kidnapped. Although he may have thought about a confrontation with the imperial palace, he is not ready to use such a drastic method as kidnapping.
Seoliang did not bother to inform Jeoksong of Hye-sim’s excommunication. Because I thought it would cause some confusion.
“I see.”
“You don’t seem to be in a very good mood.”
“How could it feel good? It’s not necessarily because of the emperor. “Even if there are justifications such as correcting the world and establishing justice, all the tribulations that result from them are bound to cause great damage to the lives of the people.”
“….”
“I can only sigh at the injustice of all of us who have brought the world into such turmoil.”
Xu Liang nodded.
Red Pine sighed.
“So what do you plan to do, leader?”
“Before that, I should first explain why I was thinking of kidnapping the emperor.”
“hmm?”
Xiliang explained the current state of the emperor. How could the crown prince be so rampant and what did Dam Sa-young do?
Red Pine sighed.
“I see.”
“exactly.”
“Hehe, it’s really hard. “Why does he keep committing such terrible crimes?”
Even the red pine trees in the world seemed to be shaking. No matter how angry he was, the person who always called him Lord Dam was now calling him by his first name.
Xu Liang said calmly.
“I don’t want to get caught up in the same category, but among the martial arts people, there are a lot of people who consider killing people as a normal thing. “Right now, I am the only one other than Gaebaekjeong who takes it for granted that I can blow up an enemy unit for my own purpose.”
“I don’t want to group people into the same category based solely on results. “There is a complete difference between someone who kills an enemy in the special situation of war and someone who deceives and deceives the world for the ambition of destroying the world.”
“I don’t think that’s something someone who follows Buddhism would say.”
“haha.”
Red Pine smiled bitterly.
Although he trained in supreme martial arts, he was a noble warrior who had never tried to kill anyone in his life. Even though he had more power than anyone else, he was a person who did not forget to be cautious in judging good and evil.
Perhaps he is the person most unsuited to martial arts. This difficult time led the group called Shaolin to draw him into martial arts, and he was not a person suitable for worldly strife.
“Then what do you plan to do now, leader?”
“What do you mean?”
“What are you planning to do with the emperor after you revive him?”
“I plan to use it as a tool.”
“equipment?”
“exactly.”
Seo-ryang’s eyes calmed down.
“The crown prince joined hands with Damsayoung. No matter how brave Damsayoung was, she would never have thought of poisoning the emperor on her own. Of course, I would have taken the initiative.”
“I guess so.”
“But I am not interested in the power struggle in the imperial palace. What I’m interested in is the world. “I have no intention of taking advantage of that power struggle for the sake of the world.”
“Be humble…”
Red Pine closed his eyes.
He recalled what he said to Hyeoncheon.
– If the times chose him, wouldn’t it be a bad thing to be swept away by the flow of fate?
Jeoksong opened his eyes and looked at Seoryang.
Seoliang tilted his head.
“Is there something on my face?”
“…you.”
“Please speak.”
“Can you do me a favor?”
A strange look appeared in Seo-ryang’s eyes.
Red Pine said calmly.
“If it benefits you, it will be beneficial and not harmful.”
“When you say that, I feel scared.”
“So you won’t listen?”
“I will listen and judge.”
“I won’t suffer any losses.”
“It is difficult to live without losing money if you want to be the leader of the Heavenly Demon Church.”
Jeokpine grinned.
“There will be a place like Janggyeonggak at the headquarters in Shingyo. “Did you say it was Magyeonggak?”
“Is that so?”
“Please go in there with me.”
Xu Liang frowned.
Magyeonggak was a place where all martial arts and scriptures of Shingyo were collected. There is no need to say its importance.
Is it a good thing I didn’t ask to be sent alone? You probably know that this is an unreasonable request.
“The reason is?”
“I will go and tell you.”
Seoryang, who had been quietly looking at the red pine tree, stood up.
“Let’s go.”
“Yes?”
Red Pine blinked.
“Now?”
Xiliang snorted.
“Then when should we go? “A man who doesn’t have much time left to live doesn’t know he’s wasting his time.”
“Hehehe!”
“let’s go.”
“That’s right.”
* * *
Magyeonggak was guarded by countless masters.
Xiliang bit them all. He thought Jeoksong might have something else to say to him.
‘If you think about it.’
Seoliang thought as he looked at the entrance to Janggyeonggak.
‘It’s amazingly similar.’
I had this thought sometime in the past. It is said that Janggyeonggak of Shaolin and Magyeonggak of Shingyo are very similar, as if they were drawn on a board.
‘I think it was probably the time when I brought the Heavenly Demon Power Fist.’
When he was King Sal, he once entered Janggyeonggak in Shaolin.
Of course, I have never been to the depths of the cabinet. So, I couldn’t even see things like the Seventy-Two Buddhist Temples, the representative Buddhist temples of Shaolin.
However, I clearly remembered what the structure was like. He was called King Salsuji, and no matter where he went, he pathologically memorized the environment there.
“As expected, as expected.”
“hmm?”
Red Pine, who was walking inside beyond the entrance, smiled faintly.
“As expected, it resembles Janggyeonggak from headquarters. “No, it’s safe to say that it’s not just that there are similarities, but that they are the same.”
Xu Liang’s eyes lit up.
Jeokpine walked around every corner of Magyeonggak. Although the structure was the same, it was much wider than Janggyeonggak in size.
Magyeonggak is filled with countless martial arts books and scriptures.
After looking around the inside for a while, Red Pine sat down on a chair provided on one side. I gradually felt the limits of my physical strength.
“I thought about this when I came to Shingyo with Malco. “There is nothing we can do if we are caught and killed by the chase team, but if we survive and accept us, we must talk about this.”
Seoliang tilted his head.
“What do you mean?”
Red Pine looked up at Seoliang with transparent eyes. Those eyes were so clear and deep that Seoryang felt himself shrinking for some reason.
“Let me tell you. How the first Heavenly Demon created the reigning Demon Emperor Qi.”
