Chronicles of the Demon Faction

Episode 493 Destiny Calls (5)

‘What is it?’

Ki Jong-ui frowned.

He could feel their energy before he could catch a group with his eyes.

‘calm. There is someone who has sharpened the blade, but he is not ready for battle.’

no way?

‘You were waiting? Us?’

That can’t be possible.

After the emperor was kidnapped, the true master of the dragon did not let down his guard. So, when it came to information, they were handling it more sensitively than any other organization.

In other words, there is no way that information about movement from this direction will leak out. However, it seemed like they already knew they were approaching.

The energy was like that. The calm atmosphere was like a lake. No matter how much I gained steadfastness, there was no way there wouldn’t be waves like this.

‘I must be nervous.’

After a while, he entered Guandu.

“You’re finally here.”

A non-standard beast was seen leaning against a huge tree across from the pipe.

And the young man sitting half-lying on the beast’s belly and the powerful masters standing next to him.

The energy they gave off was so heavy and strong that it took me a long time before I realized the presence of a carriage parked on one side.

“Really, is this the so-called Zen art? I thought it was real, right? “I thought you were scamming me by saying you have divine eyes or something, but they turn out to be really good eyes.”

The person spitting out unintelligible words was a young man leaning against the belly of the beast.

hook.

Mudam took a step forward.

Likewise, Ki Jong-ui, who was trying to take a step closer, flinched.

“Reveal your identity.”

A heavy bass sound.

The slightly crackling voice gave off a truly terrifying intimidation. He wasn’t angry or going crazy, but it felt like a shiver ran down his spine.

‘That’s amazing. ‘Who is the author?’

I memorized all the personal details of the Demonic Cult, but there was no one like me among them.

Ki Jong-ui looked at Ma Dong-pil.

‘That prosecutor was called Ma Dong-pil. Ma Cyoju’s right hand man and close escort. Not long ago, it was said that he was an expert who competed with Shinchang of the Iron Blood Castle in dozens of battles.’

It is a powerful prosecutor.

Sinchang Eongeuk was considered one of the top ten masters in the world.

Even though there are all kinds of variables in a naval battle, it means that the author is also an expert in extreme horse fighting to the extent that he can compete in tens of sums.

And that fact was felt most clearly by Ki Jong-ui, who was now facing him.

‘furthermore.’

Although they have a more flashy appearance than anyone else, the reason I didn’t notice them first is probably because the faces of the masters here are so flashy.

However, it was clear that the all-white young man was also an expert who was difficult to ignore.

The cool waves that came through were truly overwhelming. I’ve seen a lot of long-time writers in the old file room, but this one conveyed more lively pressure than any of them.

‘Yeo Kang-hwi. The lord of the North Sea Ice Palace. And…’

Ki Jong-ui’s eyes deepened.

His eyes fell on a young man with a majestic physique, languidly draped in a red uniform.

‘Yeomra!’

The Demon Cult’s Ten Thousand Demons, Seoryang.

Even though he has the face of a young man, he doesn’t look like one at all.

The presence that naturally swayed without being conscious of it was like a large mountain, so it was as if I was seeing an old expert who had been crossing the river for decades.

Xiliang’s smile became cold.

“hey.”

“….”

“Our Great Protector is asking who you are.”

“…?!”

Mudam’s expression immediately became awkward. Even while confronting the enemy, he relieved the tension with a joke.

Ki Jong-ui cleared his throat.

“Are you the leader of the Demonic Cult?”

Mudam’s expression, which had become awkward, suddenly hardened.

bang!

The hem of Ki Jong-ui’s clothes fluttered.

Cha cha cha chang!

The water dragon soldiers lined up behind Gijong each drew their weapons.

Of course it was meaningless. Mudam’s attack was a warning and he had no intention of doing it again.

“Speak clearly. This person is the Ten Thousand Demons of the main school, the Great Leader of the Hundred Thousand Demons. “It’s not a name that someone like you would say without permission.”

Huh.

It was a terrifyingly penetrating wave.

Even when standing still, it creates enough pressure to tingle the skin, but when it releases its force with determination, it conveys an intimidating feeling that goes beyond imagination.

You could say it felt like tens of thousands of pounds of rocks falling like a shower. It was a pressure that felt like it was going to explode.

Ki Jong-ui looked down at his feet without realizing it.

There was a huge sword mark an inch away in front of my feet. The length of the side was not long, but the depth was enormous. It was a sword power that seemed as if it would penetrate to the bottom of an abyss.

Grumbling.

Cold sweat broke out on the back of Ki Jong-ui’s neck.

‘strong!’

As the head of water, he was given the title of King of Water.

Unlike most of the Seven Heavenly Dragons, he was actually a powerful expert who reached the level of harmony. The moment the Seven Pillars of War was completed, his enlightenment also reached the ultimate level of martial arts.

So he was of a different class. This is because all you have to do is use your ability as a order master without any other talents and by melting it into enlightenment.

‘Combat power… I’m better in large-scale battles, but I’m at a disadvantage in one-on-one battles.’

Ki Jong-ui’s eyes lit up.

‘Is this really the Great Protection Act of the Demonic Cult?’

At that time, Seo-ryang opened his mouth.

“Is it interesting?”

Ki Jong-ui looked at Seo-ryang.

Seoliang woke up with a groan.

“The sound of the head rolling is so loud that it seems like it can be heard up here.”

“….”

“If you come, say what you have to say. ah! As the saying goes, arrogant language is prohibited. It’s okay for me, but our Great Protector is very passionate. “If you make a mistake, your head could be blown off.”

Ki Jong-ui’s eyes suddenly changed.

‘strong.’

Huh.

When Seo-ryang stood up, the air changed.

Just by changing my posture, the air seemed to be shaking. Ki Jong-ui said, feeling nervous inside.

“My name is Ki Jong-ui, who is the water lord among the high priests of the Seven Heavenly Dragons and Seven Lords.”

He clearly calls himself the Seven Lords of the Heavenly Dragon. It was different from the high priests I had met so far.

Xu Liang smiled.

“We are maintaining the front line in Honam, but we somehow managed to come all the way here.

Well, it’s not like there were millions of troops forming a straight line, so if we had received information, it wouldn’t have been impossible to infiltrate this far, right?”

“….”

“So, Gi Su-ju, what brought you all the way to Ye?”

Plain.

It was difficult to see this as the attitude of a monarch toward an enemy general. Especially if the relationship is entangled with deep-rooted hatred like the two groups.

King Ki Jong-ui took control.

“If you are on your way to see my master, I have come to guide you personally.”

For a moment, Seo-ryang’s eyes sparkled.

‘Dam Sa-young?’

surprising.

I thought they sent it to me to figure out their intentions. If that had been the case, I would have grabbed him right away and ripped his head out.

That was Dam Sa-young’s method. Send out all your forces, observe the enemy’s reaction, and look into their intentions.

Dam Sa-yeong was the person who watched and figured out how the sent troops would die, how they would die, what the battle would be like, what they would convey, and whether they would die.

This time, he sent someone to bring a guest instead of just making a fuss.

‘I didn’t know it would come out like this.’

Did you see through their intentions? Even Seo-ryang was taken aback by the completely different method from what Dam Sa-yeong usually used.

But he quickly regained his composure.

‘Right.’

The fact that Ma Cyoju came out into the world at this time is in itself a huge event. However, it is also difficult to read the intention.

It is not enough to just dispatch troops and try to figure out what is going on, as in the past. Then didn’t the Uicheonmaeng collapse?

I won’t do that anymore. It was as if he was saying that.

‘You’ve changed.’

Xu Liang smiled.

‘As I changed, the old man also changed.’

In other words, it could be expressed as growth.

Whether it’s growth or regression, the fact that someone who has reached that level has attempted to make a change is remarkable in itself.

It may have been the moment when he realized that he could not keep the world under his feet without change.

“When you say your master, you mean Damsayoung, right?”

“That’s right.”

“Hmm.”

This is also a guess.

It was both a look and an invitation. Come visit anytime if you feel confident. It seemed like he was shouting like that.

At that time, Mudam opened his mouth.

“Master.”

“hmm?”

“You can’t just go. “We don’t know what kind of trap the enemy’s leader may have prepared.”

Ki Jong-ui’s eyes deepened.

“My lord is a man who places no limits on strategy and tactics to annihilate the enemy. However, he is not a coward enough to set up a trap even where he meets the leader of the enemy army.”

Xu Liang shook his head.

“Your words are meaningless. “You will only see what you want to see in your master.”

And it was the same here.

Ki Jong-ui continued.

“He asked me to tell you this unless you are coming to see him.”

“word?”

“Whether we go to war or go to peace, we will have to meet each other at least once, so come and have a cup of tea while you are already out.”

“….”

“This is what my master told me to tell you personally.”

We need to meet each other at least once…

“Hahaha!!”

Seo-ryang burst into laughter without realizing it.

It was a sudden laugh. It was almost like a burst of laughter.

Mudam, Ma Dongpil, and Yeo Ganghwi looked at Seoryang in surprise. They had never seen Seo-ryang burst into laughter so cheerfully.

‘Once? Yes, once.’

He was no longer a hate-filled monster. I couldn’t resolve my resentment, but I wasn’t the type of person to be swayed by resentment.

But one thing is certain. When you meet Dam Sa-young, it will be time to kill him.

But he doesn’t like that. If we’re going to meet once anyway, let’s meet now. He tells me to go and have some tea.

It was funny to see Dam Sa-young’s eyes looking at a place so different from her own.

I was happy at the same time. He was happy that he, who had maintained his soul as a death god due to excessive living, was now ready to reign as a true demon god.

Seo-ryang, who burst out laughing for a while, nodded.

“good night. “I will accept your offer.”

“It’s a wise decision.”

“If only you would tell me where your master is waiting.”

Ki Jong-ui’s eyes deepened.

“It’s difficult to tell you until I take you there in person.”

Xu Liang shook his head.

“Please don’t make your mission difficult. It is a meeting place between the leaders of both sides who are preparing for war.

“How can I go there if you don’t tell me where it is in advance?”

“Are you scared?”

Murder arose in the eyes of Mudam and Ma Dongpil.

Xu Liang nodded.

“I’m scared. “Damsayoung, that snake-like human’s readiness is sufficiently threatening.”

“….”

“Aren’t you going to tell me? In that case, this meeting is cancelled. “Let’s go now.”

Ki Jong-ui, who was looking at Seo-ryang silently, opened his mouth.

“Wudang Mountain, Hubei Province.”

“Wudang Mountain?”

“exactly.”

Xi Liang glanced at the carriage.

“I see.”

He nodded.

“Good. “I heard the scenery of Wudang Mountain is really nice, so let’s go and have a look.”

It was a decision made so easily that it felt futile. The decision was made so quickly that I thought it was a joke.

“Okay, let’s get up quickly. They say they’ll take you there on their own, but it’s convenient for us. ah!”

Seoliang looked back at Ki Jong-ui.

“But that’s the point.”

“…?”

“There’s no need for there to be more than one, right?”

“What do you mean?”

It was then.

Whoa whoa!

Ki Jong-ui opened his mouth wide.

With a terrifying blast, the bodies of the fifty water dragon soldiers were cut in two. It was the Igieo sword of the Heavenly Demon Sword.

Phew.

Seo-ryang, who killed a fifty-year-old master with a single blow, grabbed the Cheonmado sword and draped it over his shoulder.

“One servant to guide you is enough, so why did you send them one after another? This is the problem with that guy. Tsk tsk.”

“…!!”

“What are you doing? Get directions.”
