Chronicles of the Demon Faction

Episode 499. The world was nowhere (3)

Ma Dong-pil’s eyes were completely fixed on the top of the mountain. He was sitting on the coach seat with his sword in his arms, as if he would never move from that spot for the rest of his life.

‘It’s still the same.’

Mudam glanced at Ma Dong-pil and muttered happily in his heart.

Even though he has reached the extreme, he shows no arrogance. I was not overconfident in my own abilities, nor did I try to prove it to anyone.

I just worked for my religious leader like before. If something happened there right now, it seemed like it would get there faster than I could.

‘It’s gone out of the defense court, but it’s still a great defense law.’

He did not lose sight of the way to protect the law. I can’t say that that alone is great.

At that time, Yeo Kang-hwi approached Mu Dam.

“Daehobeop.”

“Please speak.”

Although he is young, he is the lord of the small palace who will inherit the Bingung palace. Even if it was a martial arts conversation, I couldn’t speak lightly.

Yeo Kang-hwi frowned.

“Isn’t there something strange about the atmosphere?”

What does this mean?

Mudam tilted his head.

“atmosphere?”

“That’s right.”

“I don’t know what that means.”

“Um, that’s it…”

It seemed difficult to explain clearly even to myself.

Ugh.

A subtle blue-white energy arose from Yeo Kang-hwi’s body. It was a cool feeling that made my lungs feel refreshed just by looking at it.

“As expected, something seems strange. “The ice-white energy surrounding this place is shaking little by little.”

Mudam’s eyes sparkled.

Is the ice cube shaking? Does this mean that you have detected the movements of some suspicious people?

Yeo Kang-hwi raised his right hand.

Chi profit.

A small, pure white bead was created at the fingertips of a woman more beautiful than chalcedony. It was a crystal of ice made by condensing ice.

“It’s a technique called Bingbaekcheonrajin (氷魄天羅陣). And this is the core of Bingbaekcheonrajin.”

“Bingbaekcheonrajin?”

“That’s right. When I came here, I put a certain amount of ice in the air.

“It is an energy that will gradually melt and disappear in about an hour, but until then, it is a Qigongjin (Qigongjin) that can detect even the slightest movement.”

“Capturing movement?”

“That’s right. “The ice cube tells me.”

An uncommon surprise appeared on Mudam’s face.

If there was such a mysterious technique, it would be a great weapon when protecting someone. As the head of the Protectorate, it was a very coveted ability.

‘I heard that all martial arts outside of Sae are unique.’

Forms pores without pores. It’s not impossible with Jungwon martial arts, but it’s possible to do something like that not through extreme enlightenment, but through the characteristics of martial arts itself.

“At some point, a strangely large number of popular people are gathering. uh? “It’s still like that.”

“How many are there?”

“Hundreds. “With this momentum, it would be enough to make a thousand.”

Mudam’s eyes flashed.

‘A thousand people?’

There was no one in this area. However, it is said that almost a thousand people are suddenly rushing in.

If that was true, it wasn’t normal.

“Coriander?”

“We don’t know that far. It is not a universal technique and can only be used after mastering the divine skill to the tenth level. “It’s my first time too… but I know one thing.”

Yeo Kang-hwi frowned.

“It moves quickly. Very much. But it’s too heavy-duty. It seems like they come in groups of 100 or 200.

“We are organized among ourselves, but everyone seems to move in different formations.”

Move in a different formation. Yet there are still a thousand people.

In any case, it was an unusual situation. Mudam called Ma Dongpil.

“Did you hear?”

“yes.”

“This place will be taken care of by me and Lord Sogong. “You should go to the religious leader first.”

Ma Dong-pil lowered his head.

“All right.”

grasp!

Ma Dong-pil ran out to the mountain in an instant.

Mudam’s magical eyes scanned all directions.

‘Where on earth and how are they coming from?’

I didn’t think Yeo Kang-hwi was lying.

Although his skills were far below, the ice-baek magic he used was a summation of hundreds of years of ice-gung history that was on par with the best magic techniques in the central plains.

There is definitely something there.

click.

He slightly pulled out his sword with his thumb and his demonic energy began to take over the surroundings little by little.

betrayal.

A word that is unpleasant and creepy every time you hear it.

The impact of a word consisting of only two syllables was beyond imagination. And thanks to the devil, who had raised the impact to the limit, Song Sang-baek was unable to come to his senses.

But even for a moment.

“…there is no benefit.”

“hmm?”

Song Zhengbaek took a deep breath. However, the mental power of the absolute being who had ruled the Sapa martial arts until now was somehow suppressing it.

“Betraying Damsayoung? Even if that were the case, there would be little benefit to us. “On the contrary, it only increases the risk.”

Seo-ryang laughed as if it was fun.

“Do you know which tribe is the safest when the leader cannot do his job?”

“What do you mean?”

“Jeongpa. Because they do not recognize one-man dictatorship. “Because it is an alliance, even the leader of the association cannot help but notice what those around him are thinking.”

“…?”

“But our school and your Sanghyeolseong are different. These are organizations that maintain central power through a thorough one-man dictatorship.

“If the leader of such an organization is shaken, the entire group will be divided.”

Xi Liang pointed north with his thumb.

“Before you joined hands with Dam Sa-yeong, you were the leader of the Sa Sect.

However, after joining hands with Dam Sa-yeong, you became nothing more than a puppet who could not even lead my own life.”

“…!!”

“You are in enough danger now. The reason is because you are not the same as before. “Because you are dangerous, the Iron Blood Saints who follow you are also dangerous.”

Zheng Zhongbaek bit his lip.

“It’s sophistry. The world doesn’t work that simple. Moreover, by nature it is not a very soft organization.”

“Stop it now.”

“what?”

“I’m telling you to stop acting like a stupid leader who ignores reality because he knows it himself but doesn’t want to admit it.”

“…!”

“Sanghyeongseong is dangerous. And it’s your fault for making Iron Blood Castle dangerous. Admit your faults and mistakes.”

Zheng Zhongbaek’s fist was shaking.

I wanted to refute what the other person said, but I couldn’t think of anything to refute.

why? The answer was simple. This was because he also knew that what Seo-ryang said was right.

“You have made enough mistakes. Usually, if you make a mistake like that, it’s impossible to make up for it. But you still have a chance because of two idiots who want to rule the world.”

“….”

“Help us and attack Damsayeong.”

It was a strong temptation.

Surprisingly, Song Sang-baek felt an indescribable temptation when Seo-ryang told him to attack Damsa-yeong.

It was because he finally acknowledged that he had made mistakes all along, and that what Seoliang said was true. So it was sweeter.

Song Zhengbaek opened his mouth.

“You said that anyone who steps into the martial arts world cannot escape unless they die, right?”

“okay.”

“Still, if I decide to get out of this situation, will your demonic cult attack us?”

This is a repetition of what I said earlier.

However, Seo-ryang’s answer was similar to before but also different.

“That can’t be helped.”

“Can not help it?”

“I’m sure Dam Sa-yeong feels the same way. “I think you know the reason.”

Of course.

They both joined forces and betrayed each other. That guy says he doesn’t want to fight anymore and will leave.

There is no fool who would leave that behind. Even if it is for fear of repercussions, the war will resume after it is eliminated.

“Damsayoung and I will make the same choice even if we don’t say anything. “You will be dealing with both the Murim Alliance and the Demon Cult at the same time.”

“Because that’s the rule?”

“Because it is the law of the battlefield.”

Zheng Zhongbaek sighed.

Seo-ryang’s eyes sparkled.

The current sigh was different from before. There was another figure of Sang Geum Baek, sighing and sighing in relief from the delusion that had caused him suffering.

“I have entered a battlefield from which I cannot escape… Yes, you are correct.”

Zhong Zhenbaek smiled bitterly.

“You are right. Yes, I already knew. I just didn’t want to admit it. “To have that obvious truth confirmed again by a young man who was born 30 years later than me.”

“….”

“I’m done too. “The leader is disqualified.”

“….”

“but.”

Zhong Zhenbaek’s eyes lit up.

It was a completely different look than before. One is freed from the sima through conversation with the person who gave it to the sima.

This is why life is fun.

“Still, I will leave this game.”

It’s the same thing as before, but it’s also a completely different thing.

People have changed. Even the same words have different meanings depending on who says them. The words of Song Sang-baek, who was slowly regaining his original form, were filled with strong power.

“What if I get left out of this game? “You’ll have to deal with the power of me and Damsayoung, right?”

“I have to think about it. But I think it’s better to retreat and try to survive than to see the end of this game. “Right now.”

Xu Liang smiled.

“Do you really think so?”

Zheng Zhongbaek nodded.

“Yeah, I think so.”

Seo-ryang was inwardly delighted.

‘good.’

Betrayal of a remittance bag?

I didn’t even want that in the first place. Whether his condition is normal or not, he is a man who will not betray unless there is a good reason.

However, if he could shake off the heavy burden of the Sanghyeongseong in destroying Damsayoung, that alone would have been a huge harvest.

One burden has been relieved from my heart. It felt like he was going to fly, but Seoryang didn’t show it.

“Thank you.”

A look of comfort appeared on Zheng Zhongbaek’s face.

“Whatever the reason, I was able to escape that damned demon thanks to you. “I just want to express my gratitude for that part.”

“If you’re thankful, you should return the favor.”

“So you’re letting me out, right? “Isn’t that alone a great gift to you?”

Xu Liang chuckled.

It seemed like he had definitely returned as he was breathing leisurely.

This was why diplomatic negotiations were important. With just a few words and conversations, you can change the outcome of the battlefield.

And with today’s meeting, Seoliang once again achieved a result that allowed him to lead the country to his advantage.

“If you want to get out, get out quickly. “Because it bothers me.”

“Without culture.”

“Aren’t I the leader of the organization you call the devil group?”

Song Zhengbaek chuckled.

Now I can finally smile sincerely. He felt the most at ease in a long time.

“Then I’m leaving.”

“Don’t let down your guard. “You never know when they might change and try to attack you first.”

“I will accept as many fights as you want.”

The two people smiled and turned around.

‘huh?’

After walking a few steps, Seoyang stopped and looked around.

‘what? There was something in the air…’

It seemed like Geumbaek felt something similar.

“Since when did this area become so stuffy?”

At that moment, Seoryang could feel that a familiar energy was approaching with a frightening force.

“Dongpil?”

Crumbling.

The King of Tigers lowered his posture as if he was nervous.

Ma Dong-pil’s cry was heard from afar.

“Master!”

Boom.

As if they had been waiting, black crowds of people began to roll in like waves from the south, west, and northwest.

Surprise appeared in Seo-ryang’s eyes.

“Salsu?!”
