Dark and Light Martial Emperor - Chapter 973
Episode 973
The time has come (3)
Is it possible to express this feeling in words or writing?
Yaharuk said nothing and looked up at the sky.
‘It’s over.’
In front is Shinhwa Gyoju and in the back is Yeongaju.
In front, there is a half-incarnate god who ascended to heaven and then fell, and at the back, there is a sword god who wandered around under the ground and then flew up into the sky.
He was an expert whose victory or defeat was difficult to guarantee even if he was ranked immediately. Since there was even Gi Cheon-woong, whom he worshiped as a lord or even a god, his strategy could be said to have been a failure.
‘But why?’
Even in the midst of confusion, I feel an unexpected sense of relief.
Is it because he has already prepared himself for death? But isn’t death something that can be accepted with a smile only after the goal has been achieved?
Why am I so calm? Why do I feel relieved and reassured?
“You went astray.”
Yaharuk looked at Ki Cheon-woong.
The sight of Ki Cheon-woong with his arms crossed on both knees was like looking at a crouching fire dragon.
“Yeongaju must have given you the last option.”
“…also.”
Yaharuk smiled.
Even Ki Cheon-woong, who was facing him, could not tell what the smile meant.
“Did you already know everything?”
“I didn’t know.”
Ki Cheon-woong was honest.
“Now that Sangdanjeon has collapsed and even the roots of spiritual vision have been lost, I am the most powerful weapon in the world, but at the same time, I am no different from an inactive artillery weapon. “You need someone to point you in the direction before you can shoot.”
“….”
“But even though I regret that fact, I have never turned away from reality. Even though I served blindly, there are still people who can be my eyes.”
Ki Cheon-woong’s eyes shook slightly.
Yaharuk realized that the eyes of the human he had looked up to like a god were shaking because of him.
“One of those people was you.”
“….”
“But the person who I thought would be my eyes turned out to be a businessman who took advantage of the owner’s service to commit robbery and went to make a deal.”
It was Yeonwi who informed Ki Cheon-woong that Yaharuk was in an unusual condition.
However, until then, Yeonwi also had no idea what Yaharuk was planning to do. That was natural. The ability to know everything if you want to know is not in anyone’s hands.
However, preparations were possible, and Yeonwi immediately conveyed the message to Ki Cheonwoong.
Ki Cheon-woong’s first reaction was cold. He said that was nonsense and that if it were true, he would talk to Yaharuk himself.
It was the emperor who rejected it.
I didn’t know what he was going to do, but I knew that if I had already made up my mind and was on the path, the best way to find out what was going to happen was to just keep an eye on it.
Even if Yaharuk were to lie, Ki Cheon-woong is so tactful that he would not be able to distinguish between truth and lies even when they meet face-to-face.
However, no matter what Yaharuk’s intentions were, this was not just a problem for Ki Cheon-woong alone, but could be directly related to the problems of the entire Central Powers, so they promised to wait and see.
Yaharuk, who did not know what had happened so far, fell for Yeonwi’s trick and ended up here.
“okay.”
“You are a person who has no talent for lying.”
“….”
“If I had called you and treated you alone, I would have realized right away that you had an agenda.”
“I guess so.”
“There were various political reasons for what I did to you. But that was just the emperor’s opinion. The reason Yeongaju asked me to watch over you was different.”
“What is the reason?”
“He didn’t give you a chance. “They put up with it for me and gave me another option.”
Yaharuk looked at Yeonwi.
Yeonwi’s expression did not change. The eyes were also the same.
An absolute swordsman known as the mighty Judge Sword. Although he may have treated him kindly before, the result was like this, so he became a strict judge like his nickname and only pursued one goal.
All preparations are complete. All that remains is the final conversation between Ki Cheon-woong and Yaharuk.
“Why did you do that?”
“….”
“Why did you deceive me?”
“….”
“The reason you followed me even after knowing my purpose was because you thought that by following me you could achieve a cause that is opposite to what I wanted?”
Yaharuk’s eyes sparkled like lightning.
“Did you say it was for the greater good?”
“….”
“That’s right. “It was a great cause.”
“For what purpose?”
“It is a great way for Shinhwaism to conquer the world as it is for Shinhwaism.”
The word world is much bigger and broader than people vaguely think.
“Mythology is fire. It is flame and chloride. “It is the flame of God itself that can purify everything in this unscrupulous world.”
“That is our doctrine.”
“It’s not just a doctrine. “Do you really think this world is safe enough for the world to return to its original state with a little fire?”
“….”
“Absolutely not. This world is rotten. It can’t prove anything and it can’t admit anything. “It’s the same not only in our North Sea, but also in the Southern Continent and everywhere else in the world.”
“So what were you trying to do?”
“The greatest influence in this world is our main enemy, the martial arts of the Southern Continent. And at some point, the martial artist tried to revive the emperor’s honor and establish the world’s security.”
“Doesn’t your words about establishing the security of the world prove the opposite of what you want to do?”
“Absolutely not.”
Yaharuk’s words were definitive.
“This world is crazy. Even if a clear principle emerges, no one follows it. Even if you say that this is right and that this is the best, isn’t this a world full of people who drool as if they are possessed because they think that’s all they say?”
Whoa!
Yaharuk’s face turned slightly pale.
A strong energy emanated from Ki Cheon-woong’s body as he sat on the stairs.
The intensity of that energy was truly beyond imagination. Yeonwi vaguely thought that the density of this energy alone could turn a small forest into an active volcano.
A huge wave of fire.
When Yeonwi looked at Ki Cheonwoong with trembling eyes, he glared at Yaharuk with unwavering eyes.
“Which one principle do you think works to lead this world correctly?”
“At least considering the reason why the leader has not acted so far, something I can do could be much more valuable.”
Yaharuk’s remarks were offensive.
Is it because he has already risked death? Yaharuk’s face was full of excitement.
“Xinhuaism is rotten.”
“….”
“Without mentioning the atrocities of the Xiao cult, the Xinhua cult just wandered around the place without any goal. Even after the religious leader closed down the temple, the strong began to focus only on increasing their power by preying on the weak.”
Ki Cheon-woong could not free himself from those words. His face turned pale.
Yaharuk shouted with a fire-breathing feeling.
“The world was like hell in that situation. The stronger gets higher power? What does that mean? Su Jyoju couldn’t even control this situation with his political power. “We all just went with the flow.”
“So you’re going to kill the emperor?”
Ki Cheon-woong’s remarks were like arrows.
“Does what you’ve said so far have anything to do with what you’re about to do next?”
“Master!”
“Do you think this world can be made right if the emperor dies?”
“Absolutely not.”
“Then why on earth do you want to kill the emperor?”
Assassination of the emperor.
That fearsome and terrible combination of words came out of Ki Cheonwoong’s mouth for the first time.
Yaharuk did not taint the truth with lies about what he had to do.
“If the emperor dies, the entire continent will rise up.”
“….”
“From then on, there is no need for strategy or tactics. “The death of the emperor leads to the destruction of the continent.”
“Did you want that?”
“There is only one thing I wanted.”
Grumble!
Terrible flames rose from Yaharuk’s two fists. It was the Shinhwa religion’s strongest fist, Fire Dragon God Fist.
And the Hwaryong River Divine Fist was also Gi Cheon-woong’s Jinsin Jeolgi.
“To burn and evaporate everything and then plant the sacred seeds of mythological religion in its place.”
“So you tried to kill the emperor?”
“That’s right!”
Did you feel that no words could persuade you?
Yaharuk shouted loudly.
“Everything must be destroyed in order to burn everything! “Everything must become meaningless and everything must be burned!”
“….”
“It doesn’t matter whether you are a religious leader or a small religious leader! It doesn’t even matter whether Gwanghyeolgyo or Saeumgyo is involved. “It would be a million times more valuable to become an agent of the Avatar to restore everything to its original state than to become a stooge of another force!”
Yaharuk shouted as if there was no one behind him.
It seemed as if he was shouting in anger or madness. But when Yeonwi looked at his face, she felt that he was not as excited as she thought.
‘Why?’
Why?
Is it because he is pouring out all the silent words he has against his master, Shinhwa cult leader Ki Cheon-woong?
Why can’t I feel any emotion other than relief in the author’s voice?
Even if he had lost his spiritual eyes, there was no way that Ki Cheon-woong, who had practiced Yeolyang Gong and lived in a Shinhwa cult all his life, would not have been able to understand the true feelings of Yaharuk.
“Do you want to die?”
“yes! Kill it! “Isn’t that what the religious leader wants?”
“It’s not what I want.”
Gi Cheonwoong’s eyes sparkled with fire.
“I think that’s what you want.”
“…!”
“What you’ve said so far has no meaning, right?”
“….”
“Isn’t it just something you blurt out because you don’t think the other person will understand your cause?”
Yaharuk gritted his teeth.
He was truly a man who could not hide his expression. It was the first time that even Yeonwi, who was supposed to be upright, was as eccentric as Yaharuk.
Gi Cheon-woong, who was quietly glaring at Yaharuk, spoke out loud.
“Can’t you give up that feeling even now?”
“….”
“Couldn’t you go down the same path with me even now?”
It was then.
Chaaaaang!
Yan Wei’s imperial sword was pulled out with a sound that was nothing short of spectacular.
Cheonra Imperial Sword.
The first and last famous sword given to a warrior by the emperor of this country in this era.
Yeonwi aimed his sword at Yaharuk.
“The opportunity is already gone. All that remains is to condemn you.”
“….”
“Do you have any last words?”
Yaharuk looked at Yeonwi.
His eyes were soft, but Yeonwi’s eyes were as hard and straight as steel.
“I have nothing to say, but I would like to have a cool fight with a master like you.”
“I’m sorry.”
Yeonwi lowered his sword.
“That is impossible.”
“Are you saying that I am a sinner?”
“That’s because I already cut you down.”
“…?”
What does that mean?
Yaharuk, who was tilting his head, felt his vision becoming dizzy for a moment.
It wasn’t my body that got cut, but my vision was cut straight and I felt dizzy. I couldn’t tell if my ears were shocked or what.
Yaharuk stumbles and falls to his knees.
Yeonwi put the sword to the nape of his neck.
“I have cut the heart you gave up once more.”
“…!”
“I’ll go buy you a drink later.”
Yeonwi coolly drew his sword.
Suddenly!
