Chronicles Of The Martial God’s Return - Chapter 161
Episode 161
: What a profit!
A whistle was heard.
It was the sound of hell for those running, and those chasing them could see the urgency.
An escapee came from the prison of the devil’s religion, a place that had not allowed a single escapee until now.
This situation had to be resolved.
There was no telling how many people might lose their heads.
The entire Heavenly Mountains were put on alert, and numerous demonic cultists moved in pursuit.
The situation was literally reaching a point where the tension was extremely tense.
“damn! “If this continues, I think my head will be cut off.”
Majang River, who was carrying the helpless Dong Bang-gu, looked back, panting. It didn’t seem like the pursuers were following closely yet, but if they continued at this slow pace, they might be caught soon.
They haven’t even escaped Mt. Heaven yet.
If I had at least escaped from this mountain, the escape would have been easy, but even that was difficult, so my frustration was indescribable.
The three people, unable to find their way, just moved forward.
Contrary to the idea that you would easily escape by just running east, the mountain paths in Cheonsan Mountain are so complicated and rough that you can easily get lost even if you turn just a little.
Jang Sam-tae was deep in thought.
It was a situation where I couldn’t just walk without knowing the way at all.
It was difficult to erase the traces left behind with each step.
Should I force a breakthrough?
No, if that were to happen, everyone would die.
As the tension increased, I began to break into a cold sweat without realizing it.
‘What should I do? ‘What should I do?’
He glanced back at the Majang River, but he was in no condition to think about anything.
Because he had to find his way around and was carrying Dong Bang-gu, he had less time to spare than Jang Sam-tae.
‘I have to find a breakthrough.’
Let’s think about what we can do in this situation.
Sreuk-!
It was at that moment that I heard a sound. Majang Gang and Jang Sam-tae, who were surprised, held their breath and lowered their posture.
I thought I had erased my traces, but I should not have wasted the Demonic Cult’s tracking ability.
As I sharpened my head and turned my head toward the sound, an animal passed by.
“Whoa….”
“Holy shit! “You can’t tell the difference between animals and people…”
Majang River frowned, swearing harshly.
Normally, I wouldn’t have been surprised by something like that, but because of the situation, I was very alert and freaked out whenever I heard a sound, whether it was an animal or a person.
“Well, it can’t be helped, right? If things continue like this, I really think we’ll all die…”
“Should I abandon it?”
“That’s one way, but… I haven’t heard much about it.”
I knew when I saw that trouble had occurred in the Demonic Church.
However, none of the most important information was obtained as to exactly why and why Dong Bang-gu, the commander-in-chief, was imprisoned.
Therefore, I could not abandon Dongbang-gu, which knew the internal situation well.
“I don’t think I’ll last long anyway…”
Majang River frowned.
The condition of Dongbang-gu was not very good. It was so serious that I was worried whether I would be able to survive even if I went to the doctor right away and received treatment.
Isn’t it impossible for the two remaining people to die to save such a person?
However, what Jang Sam-tae said was not wrong.
In any case, Dan Woo-hyeon’s orders had to be carried out.
“I… put me down.”
“Are you awake?”
“Cluck cluck! hurry!”
Dong Bang-gu knew his body condition well.
There was urgency in his voice, as if he felt that his life was short.
Perhaps because of the shouting, Majanggang hurriedly put down Dongbanggu.
“Cough…! Now… listen carefully.”
“Just say anything.”
“Go to the cult leader and tell him never to return to the Demon Cult.”
“Eh? “What do you mean?”
“Just listen!”
Rotation and reflection.
The dying eyes became clearer and the voice also became clearer.
Although it looked a bit difficult, it was clear that he mustered up the last of his strength to come to his senses.
Jang Sam-tae hurriedly approached and took his hand.
“The Demonic Cult is currently under the control of a person called the Black Wind God Demon. “All of the religious leader’s limbs have been cut off, and all the religious leaders are worshiping him.”
“Does that make sense?”
Dong Bang-gu smiled bitterly.
I also can’t believe this.
However, if you look back on the long history of the Demonic Cult, it was not a very strange thing.
The Demonic Cult is originally a place where the law of the strong reigns supreme.
If the person who took over the position while the leader was away was much stronger than others, there were many who would follow that strength rather than loyalty.
This was also the reason why most of those who had endured with only loyalty to Apostolate died without even being able to properly resist.
Dongbanggu couldn’t bear the fact that people he once trusted gave in to power and bowed their heads, but he knew full well that this was the law of the Demonic Cult, so he had to swallow the bitterness.
“How strong is the Black Wind God Demon that he tells you not to return to the old man?” Ma Zhanggang couldn’t understand it.
Sadohak was a member of the Five Emperors.
He competed with the Emperor of Swords, Nam Gung-cheon, which meant that he was one of the two most powerful players in the midfield.
Are you saying this is an opponent that Apostle Studies can’t defeat?
However, Dong Bang-gu did not answer that question and just smiled bitterly.
He could not explain the strength of the Black Wind God Demon.
And there was no time left to answer that.
“Let’s go quickly! “Please inform us of the Demonic Cult’s betrayal and help the Cult leader!”
“…Are you going to be okay?”
“I’m going to die anyway… I’ll be wasting my time here, so hurry up!”
A sigh escaped Jang Sam-tae’s mouth.
What is wasting time?
He is a human being who does not even have the strength to hold a sword. However, on the other hand, since he was an important figure to the Demonic Cult, it might take some time to sort out Dongbanggu.
“It’s okay to say this now, but… I will definitely get revenge.”
“Hahaha… I really need you to please.”
Looking at Jang Sam-tae, Dong Bang-gu smiled bitterly.
The Black Wind God Demon was a human being of a different class from the warriors he had seen so far.
Even though it sounded ridiculous to say that I would take revenge on someone like that, I somehow felt reassured.
“If you keep running northeast, you will be able to escape Heavenly Mountain.” Jang Sam-tae and Ma Jang-gang did not hesitate any longer.
It was Dongbang-gu who had already decided to risk his life.
I had no confidence in persuading him, nor could I humiliate a man who was prepared to die.
In that case, we must accept his sacrifice and run forward.
That was the best the two could do.
There were many people in the Demonic Cult who were skilled in tracking techniques.
Among them, if you ask who is the best, everyone will choose Eunyeongdan (隱影B).
They never once missed their target, and for that reason, they were the most trusted people in the Demonic Cult.
Mun Ju-hak, the leader of Eunyeongdan, was quietly looking at the person in front of him.
He didn’t even say anything, so it seemed like he was mute. However, the light in its eyes was as sharp as a blade, giving the illusion of being cut the moment you looked at it.
“Haha… In the end, you came out
…”
Dong Bang-gu, who was sitting down, had a bitter smile on his face.
Eunyeongdan was an organization created with great effort by Sadohak. Therefore, the reason they are alive today is because of apostolic studies.
But those people betrayed and turned their backs on him.
From Dongbang-gu’s perspective, it was not easy to understand.
“Don’t you know the musketeer? In the Demonic Cult, only the strong survive.”
“You know… I know well.”
Dongbang-gu nodded to Moon Joo-hak, who finally opened his mouth.
However, no matter how strong and proud you are, how can you immediately abandon your lord, whom you have devoted your whole life to protecting?
Was the power of the Black Wind God Demon that great?
Or maybe I was just jealous of the power he displayed?
It was something unknown.
“Black Wind God Demon… Was he
greater than the religious leader?”
“His strength is something no one can describe, and the mercy he treats his subordinates cannot even be compared to that of the former religious leader.”
“Hahaha, former cult leader…”
It took the Black Wind God Demon at most half a day to control the Demonic Cult,
and he killed the elders and those in power with overwhelming martial arts, so who could call his inaction a lie?
Even Dong Bang-gu, who was caught first and had no choice but to watch the situation, couldn’t believe it.
Even the carrot he held out was sweet.
The salaries of deceased elders and major lords were released free of charge.
If there was a person who wanted to rise to a higher position and if he/she had the ability to do so, anyone was allowed to view the rank.
Even though he might be raising a tooth that would stab his back with his own hands, he didn’t even care.
That was truly the majesty of a monarch, a power that made it impossible not to bow one’s head.
Now, Moon Ju-hak was like that too.
Sadohak’s boldness in taking actions that he would not have taken to protect the order of the Demonic Cult without hesitation and the power of the Black Wind God Demon that brought 100,000 magicians to their knees in an instant captured Munjuhak’s heart.
“I will ask you one last question. “Where is the former leader now?”
“ha ha ha.”
Dongbang-gu laughed helplessly.
I thought it was very fortunate that Sadohak did not tell anyone about his location when he left the church.
Otherwise, the place might have been in ruins by now.
‘God of the Black Wind, God of the Black Wind…’
Dong Bang-gu closed his eyes tightly and thought of him.
The sight of the Black Wind God Demon glimmering before my eyes was scary, but I was confident that if it was my master Sadohak, I would definitely be able to do it.
Even though I have to go like this.
Although I will not be able to witness that glorious sight.
Still, the laughter did not go away.
Because I know that one day the smiles on the lips of traitors will disappear.
Because he knew that his master had the ability to do so.
He raised his head and looked at the sky.
The moonlight in the night sky was unusually bright. The color slowly began to fade and my eyes became dim before I knew it.
“Cut off my head…”
Dong Bang-gu fell down with those words.
Perhaps because he had stopped breathing, he could no longer hear the sound of breathing, and his pupils were also seen slowly dilating.
Finally, the moment when the body touches the cold ground.
Suddenly!
Red blood spurted out and my neck rolled around on the floor.
“Damn it…”
Moon Ju-hak frowned and cursed.
I didn’t want to let him go, so I cut his throat, but the discomfort didn’t go away
.
Moreover, they could not achieve their goal.
“Chase Izawa and those who escaped. “They must know where Sadohak is.”
“number of people!”
But time was too late.
I ended up wasting too much time dealing with Dongbang-gu.
‘This may have been Lee Ja’s plan too…’
He blamed his own foolishness for realizing it only now.
At least the subordinates should have been sent first.
No, it was the fault of those who tortured him in the first place.
Dong Bang-gu was someone who should never have died, but he died in vain because they tortured him in all kinds of ways and left him without proper treatment.
Quick!
Moon Ju-hak gritted his teeth and threw himself away without realizing it.
