Dark and Light Martial Emperor - Chapter 353
Episode 353
The beginning of cleaning (3)
“Can we continue like this?”
“They said so.”
“Damn it, why are you always like this? “Why don’t you at least talk about it in between!”
“When did you see it operating normally? Noisy! “Run now!”
“just one! “Just one more!”
“what!”
“Are they coming too?”
“They’re not coming our way.”
“Then where are you going? “If you look at the map, it doesn’t appear to be a place where they can make efforts.”
“There is an answer to what you said. “I went to a place where I could use my strength.”
“Hoo.”
“Noisy! Out of breath! I can’t make it on time! “Run now!”
“Oh, that’s right!”
* * *
Seok-gyeong’s eyes deepened.
“That way.”
“okay.”
“The presence is ambiguous. It may seem like one or it may seem like two. And in some ways, it seems like there are three of them.”
“Did they know we were coming?”
“You don’t know that. However, I heard that their martial skills were at the level of the leader of a faction. “If he had that level of military skill, he would have read our military strength.”
“I may have known in advance, but at least I would have read the book of life and prepared.”
“Isn’t it all like that? “You know.”
“Of course.”
Unlike Seok-gyeong, Qu Gang had a subtle pride on his face.
He was the last of the eighteen existing generals to become a general. Naturally, his rank was that of the last eighteen generals.
Although he has lived through countless battles, he has never been deployed in an operation as a military officer. Naturally, he had a great desire to achieve merit in order to rise to a higher rank.
At the same time, his pride as a military commander was also enormous. Moreover, since the troops who came with us were amazing, we could not help but feel both anticipation and pride.
Seeing Gokgang like that, Seok-gyeong clicked his tongue.
“Don’t let your guard down. Yorei and Gyujeok died at the hands of these guys. “If we were incompetent rebels, would we have brought in this many troops?”
“I know. So we brought the troops. That’s why I feel reassured.”
Seok-kyung shook his head inwardly.
Irrespective of age, it can only be said that it is nature to react in such a way despite having enough experience of life and death.
In other words, considering that he has risen to this position despite being arrogant by nature, it must be seen that he has outstanding talent.
It probably won’t be fixed unless he meets an opponent who can destroy his talent.
“Let’s stop talking nonsense and finish this quickly.”
“That’s right. ah! Now that I think about it, it wasn’t killing them, it was capturing them alive, right?”
“He said that if possible, it would be better to capture him alive, but if not, it would be okay to kill him.”
“That’s good.”
The grain had a rich salsa flavor.
From the beginning, he had no intention of letting the person he defined as his enemy live. I don’t know if they must be captured alive, but unless that’s the case, they will push to kill them at all costs.
“Let’s go.”
In this way, one hundred and fifty experts of the Shinhwa religion marched, led by Shi Jing, Qu Gang, and the thirteen warriors Wu Sheng (無聲).
‘hmm.’
Seok-kyung looked around.
‘The terrain is strange.’
The entrance is narrow and long. The cliffs on the left and right were quite high, so it seemed difficult to climb up even if you used the best divine techniques.
The land here was definitely different from my hometown. The terrain was much more dynamic and therefore more complex.
I once again realized why the guys here are so good at strategy and tactics. As the Battle of Oman was fought here and there in this wide central plain, there was no choice but to constantly come up with ways to deal with the terrain and weather.
“Could it be a trap?”
Seok-gyeong shook his head in response to Gok-gang’s question.
“What has the greatest effect in places like this is rockfall warning. “They throw oil drums and shoot flaming arrows.”
“okay.”
“But considering the number of them and the lack of presence or signs of life, it is difficult to believe that they would have made any preparations. Moreover, they were constantly moving. “There wouldn’t have been enough time to build a ship like that, let alone manpower.”
“That is correct.”
At that time, Mooseong opened his mouth.
“What if it was all part of a trap?”
As his name suggests, Mu-seong was a man of few words. If I wasn’t around to talk to him, he wouldn’t open his mouth for a month or two.
Seok-kyung shook his head.
“If that were the case, there would be no point in talking about it in the first place. “Then it means that the provincial commander joined hands with them and prepared a trap. If you think about it that way, it means that we were losing from the beginning.”
Museong nodded without answering.
“by the way.”
A star-like radiance emanated from Seok-kyung’s eyes.
“This is amazing.”
Phew!
An eerie energy was felt from far away.
The density of that momentum was truly amazing. I felt the spirit of a sky-high spirit and the abyss whose depth was difficult to gauge at the same time, and I couldn’t ignore either of them.
‘Amazing.’
Regardless of who was stronger, I felt that although they had such different temperaments, they were strangely harmonious. Although the martial arts skills we learned were different, it felt like we complemented each other well with our energy.
‘In other words, is this a gang?’
It was then.
grasp!
The two storm-like prayers drew closer at an alarming speed.
It was a sudden rush. Both Shi Jing and Qu Gang Wu Sheng finished preparing for battle in an instant.
Huh.
However, the two unknown experts did not intend to fight right away.
“Hmm.”
A middle-aged man stopped at a distance and looked around at the Shinhwa religious leaders while stroking his chin.
“The two men were dragged away saying they were dead. The face is quite good. Especially…”
Tang Gwan looked at Seok-gyeong.
Seok-gyeong also glared at the party with unwavering eyes.
‘It’s strong.’
It’s definitely different from that big guy.
The perceived level of martial arts is similar. I thought Seokgyeong was slightly stronger, but it was safe to say there was almost no difference.
That wasn’t the important thing.
‘The mindset is different.’
Yo-rei was an expert who deserved perfect scores in most of the items that a warrior must have, including strength, resistance, and stamina. However, an unmanned person also had the attitude of being wary.
Let your guard down and arrogance.
Maybe it was a weakness that most strong people had.
But that guy wasn’t like that. Among the masters who have led this group, he is the strongest yet maintains appropriate tension. At the same time, I felt the spirit of never losing.
‘Now the right guys have arrived.’
It was then.
“It’s interesting.”
Yeon Ho-jeong took a step forward.
Wooooow.
The light dragon draped over his shoulder let out a terrifying sound.
The feeling of anger that boiled up from the Danjeon of the person who sees the natural enemy aroused a fierce killing intent. And his life was carried to the Gwangryongbu, making him cry bitterly.
In the past, the organization that Yeon Ho-jeong fought for to the death was Saeumgyo. There has never been a proper fight against the Shinhwa Church.
However, to him, Shinhwa Church and Gwanghyeolgyo were no different from Saeumgyo.
In the end, it is the three religions. Because of the Three Religions, the things he had to protect were destroyed, and the precious people he shared a friendship with lost their lives.
And now, they have become a threat to the lives of the families who survived the changed history.
Past, present and future.
In all of those areas, Yeon Ho-jeong could not find a reason not to be angry with the three religions.
“Are you three eighteen warriors?”
A deep sense of murder is evident in the smiling voice.
Seok-kyung’s eyes deepened.
“Did you know our identities?”
“Those bastards you brought with you are mythical soldiers.”
Surprise and tension were revealed on Gok-gang’s face, which was full of arrogance, and on Moo-seong’s expressionless face.
Seok-kyung’s face distorted slightly.
“How do you know so much about us?”
“Your side informed me.”
“On our side?”
“Twelve warriors. “I tortured him a bit and he got angry.”
It’s nonsense.
The rank of eighteen generals was not a position that could be attained simply by having strong martial arts skills.
Martial arts are basic and can only be promoted by proving absolute loyalty to the religion. Once you reach the military level, the probability of committing treason, even in your dreams, is low.
In other words, no matter how horribly tortured a person was, there was no way he would divulge religious information. With that level of mental power, one cannot become a weapon in the first place.
Even Gokang, who is extremely arrogant right now, would have thrown away his life if he had, but would not divulge a single piece of information about the religion.
Seok-kyung, who was quietly glaring at Yeon Ho-jeong, continued speaking.
“It’s a waste of time, so let’s end this useless conversation. “In other words, you were the ones who killed our school’s commander.”
There were many things I wanted to ask and many things I wanted to know.
But this was a battlefield. There is no need to waste your energy on pointless arguments.
Kill or capture. That’s all.
Yeon Ho-jeong nodded at Seok-kyung’s words.
“Yes.”
“Looking at your faces, I don’t think it will mean anything, but I will give you my first and final ultimatum.”
Grumbling.
Seok-kyung’s pupils turned bright blue.
He also learned the Cheongno Pure Painting technique that Gyujeok learned. However, the momentum reached a different level from that of the rules.
It’s deeper, hotter and more brutal.
A tremendous energy wave that seemed capable of turning this entire area into a sea of fire alone was transmitted.
“Surrender. “You will not lose your life right now, and even if you do die in the future, I will give you a painless death.”
It was a statement that conveyed a frightening sense of confidence.
And his confidence was justified. A difference in strength of this magnitude would give courage to even the most timid person in the world.
The difference in military strength between the two groups was so great.
“hate.”
However, Yeon Ho-jeong’s voice did not waver at all.
Seok-kyung nodded.
“good night.”
That was the end of those words.
“Everyone ready for battle.”
Phew!
For a moment, Yeon Ho-jeong and Dang-gwan frowned without realizing it.
Grrrrrrrrrrrrr!
It seemed like lava was flowing throughout this road. Even the air was so shocked by the tremendous fire that the more than 100 masters were emitting that they tried to run away.
They were people who knew well how to attack experts such as Yeonhojeong, Danggwan, and Yeolyanggong.
But there were degrees of that too. It seemed that even two world-class experts would not be able to easily approach this incredibly powerful fire that they smoked together.
‘It won’t be easy as expected.’
Living is living and reality is reality.
Yeon Ho-jeong looked at Go Soo-jin with cold eyes.
‘Everyone is strong. Furthermore, everyone must let down their guard… Huh?’
Where Yeon Ho-jeong’s eyes stopped, there was Gokgang.
A man less than 40 years old. Considering that he broke through the barrier at that age, he must be truly an amazing talent.
Yeon Ho-jeong grinned.
It was because I felt a hint of pride in Qu Gang’s expression.
thud!
Yeon Ho-jeong, who struck the ground with the gwangryongbu draped over his shoulder, raised his ax again and aimed it at Gokgang.
“What is your name?”
Yeon Ho-jeong’s insight was accurate.
“…Sirabe bastard.”
Qu Gang’s face suddenly distorted.
At first glance, he was a young guy who was ten years older than me. Since that guy was pointing an ax at me, Gokgang’s judgment was distorted.
Yeon Ho-jeong spoke before Gokgang opened his mouth again.
“I am Yeonhojeong.”
“…?”
“Do you know?”
A strange look appeared in Seok-kyung and Moo-seong’s eyes.
‘The best review index in the world.’
There was no way they didn’t know about Byeoksanhojang’s reputation. Because it was the hottest burning name in Danggeum Moorim.
‘indeed.’
Byeoksanhojang Yeonhojeong. The eldest son of Gangdong Byeoksan Yeonga.
He was the greatest genius of this era who gained great fame by uniquely using a huge ax as his main weapon in Yeonga, a famous sword family.
The corners of Qu Gang’s mouth rose.
“So you were holding an axe. Crazy guy. Just because you have a decent weapon, the world is yours…”
“Come in.”
“…what?”
“Let’s stick with the weakest first.”
“…?!”
“It wasn’t? “Aren’t you the weakest there? You’re perfect as a vanguard, aren’t you?”
At that moment, life exploded from Qu Gang’s body.
