Chronicles of the Demon Faction

Episode 498 The world was nowhere to be found (2)

There was silence for a moment.

Xiliang looked around.

“The view was so spectacular when seen from below, but when you actually got up there, it wasn’t so good. “It’s so desolate.”

“So that’s good.”

Zheng Zhongbaek spoke once more.

“That’s why it’s good.”

“why? “Are you at least controlling a spirit demon here?”

Zhong Zhenbaek’s eyes deepened.

Xu Liang chuckled.

“Your breathing is very unstable. “I don’t think the Emperor of the World would be able to control his breathing just because he saw the Demon Cultist, but I think there was something that caused his heart to move.”

“….”

“Well, this has nothing to do with me.”

It’s a relevant story.

However, Song Sang-baek did not bother to say out loud what was in his heart.

Xiliang looked around.

‘You’re still twelve.’

This was the number of people hiding in various places on this small mountain.

They were all masters of great stealth skills. Although it was not comparable to the Hocheon Demon Emperor, it was at a level that was not commonly seen.

Of course, that was only limited to stealth techniques. Their martial arts skills were no less than the high-ranking power of the Hocheon Demon Emperor.

Those who protect Seongju. Such close protection seemed to exist in Iron Blood Castle as well.

“don’t worry.”

Seo-ryang turned his gaze to Song Jong-baek.

Song Zhongbaek said calmly. No, I said, trying to sound calm.

“I have no intention of grabbing you in a place like this. “My guards will not attack you.”

“That’s interesting.”

Xu Liang’s face became increasingly indifferent.

“Why did the leader of Sapa, who walks the path, become so angry? “Have you really been swept away by Simma?”

“I don’t think whatever changes I make are none of your business.”

Is that really the case?

Xu Liang nodded.

“He is like that too.”

Song Zhongbaek spoke frankly.

“Why did you ask to see me?”

“Before that.”

Xiliang’s eyes lit up.

“I wonder why you agreed to my request.”

“What do you mean?”

“Why did you respond to my request to meet you? The Great Master of Magic and the leader of the Four Sects meet in an unknown mountain? “You don’t know what the impact will be.”

“….”

“Regardless of anything else, this matter is bound to reach Dam Sa-young’s ears.”

“It’s okay to pretend that I met you because I was curious about your true feelings.”

“That’s right. “I’m just saying, did you really need to do that?”

Zhong Zhenbaek’s eyes became deeper and deeper.

Those eyes, filled with endless confusion, filled the viewer with a strange feeling.

This is because it was the kind of look a human would have when he or she first came into the world and experienced society.

“I’m just tired.”

Are you tired?

These were words that were not easy to come out of the mouth of the Sanghyeolseongju, who was called Suraje and aimed at defeating the enemy. Xu Liang truly thought so.

“Are you tired?”

“Okay, I’m exhausted.”

“Looking at it, it doesn’t seem like you gave up.”

“Whatever you think, it’s okay. “I don’t want to say anything that will hurt you.”

I’m serious.

Xu Liang felt that he was speaking the truth. And feeling that way means it’s true.

“I finished my answer. Now tell me why you asked to see me.”

Xu Liang looked at Zheng Zhengbai in silence.

Song Zhengbaek did not react in any way to Seo-ryang’s silence.

After a while, Xu Liang smiled.

“It is difficult to understand the inner thoughts of someone who has reached a similar level as me just by seeing and feeling.”

“What do you want to say?”

“But what does reading mean?”

“Is it because you don’t have anyone to play with?”

“Do you want to get out of this game?”

For a moment, Zheng Zhongbaek’s eyes wavered.

Xu Liang shook his head.

“I don’t know why you’re so helpless, but you can never be left out of this game. This is because your very existence occupies a part of a huge chessboard.”

“That too is just a play on words.”

“punning? That sounds funny. No one who has once entered the world of martial arts can escape that world. “There is only one way to get out of this without dying.”

“…?”

“Ascending to heaven.”

“…!”

“There was one person in this era who could do that. Unfortunately, I gave up climbing to succeed.”

“…Nine Great Heavenly Demon.”

“Yes, I am referring to my teacher Lee Cheon-sang.”

A mysterious state so deep and so high that humans cannot reach it.

Human cognitive ability cannot express such a state. So, they simply replaced it with the more plausible phrase, “God-changing world.”

Those who have not reached mythology only become infinitely deeper and deeper.

That was the state of harmony and the state of the ultimate demon. So the gap between those who reached that level was bound to be large.

However, sometimes, once every few generations, there were people who looked into the abyss of an unrecognizable world.

People called such people as those who had reached the state of immortal Buddhahood.

“When you have achieved all the enlightenment that can be achieved on earth and there is no longer any reason to be called a human being.

A time when there is no reason to keep the body on this earth. “If it is not right then, we cannot escape from the causality of this terrible Saba world.”

“….”

“Moorim is that kind of world. “A world that embodies the law of causality in the most primitive and violent way.”

“….”

“And you are stepping deeper into that world than anyone else. So, if you want to show me such a disgusting face, either become a celebrity or commit suicide.”

“….”

“I think you yourself are not what you wanted.”

“You don’t know about me.”

“I didn’t know, but I know now. “That too a lot.”

Xu Liang shook his head.

“Your aspirations are clumsy and half-hearted. So, even if you have good skills, you are not able to put them to good use.”

“…!”

This time, I hit the nail on the head.

Zhong Zhenbaek’s face suddenly distorted. The expression clearly revealed aimless anger and madness.

Seo-ryang’s smile deepened.

“Yeah, that expression looks a lot better now. “He is the martial artist of this era, living a powerful life.”

“You guy…”

“I think I finally feel like talking about it. Actually, I didn’t know you would accept it right away.

“I was thinking about wandering around and trying to destroy the assholes that Dam Sa-yeong had made, but then the meeting happened.”

Zheng Zhongbaek said coldly.

“What do you have to say?”

Xiliang did not drag on any longer.

“Are you planning to stab Damsayoung in the back?”

The money transfer bag was dumbfounded.

Aside from the uncultured tone of speech that only back-alley gangsters would use, the content was extremely unconventional.

“Are you telling me to betray Damsayoung?”

“betrayal? Betrayal presupposes trust in the other person. “Did you really believe in Dam Sa-young?”

“….”

“That can’t be possible. No matter how greedy you may be, there is no way you could have truly believed in Dam Sa-young. “It’s not a matter of greed, it’s a matter of intelligence.”

It wasn’t wrong. Song Sang-baek did not sincerely trust Dam Sa-young.

What was even funnier was that she was dragged around by him even though she didn’t trust him.

As Seo-ryang said, he was an idiot who did not even know that he was being manipulated because he was satisfied with his attitude of not trusting Damsa-yeong.

At this level, it would not be surprising if he were stripped of his position as the head of an organization. Song Sang-baek could not help but be surprised at his own incompetence.

Why? I suddenly got angry.

I was more angry that my incompetence wasn’t real. As Seo-ryang said, Ilsin’s abilities are not lacking, but why did the results come out differently?

I know the answer. But I didn’t want to admit it.

acknowledged at the same time. This anger is anger that comes from disappointment in oneself.

“Is that all you have to say?”

“There was a lot of this and that, but in the end, that was the main point.”

“I will keep my promise. “Go now.”

“It’s okay if you don’t keep it. “Because I didn’t even believe it in the first place.”

“….”

“So, don’t trust Damsayoung either. ‘sincerely.”

Song Geum-baek shouted.

“Do you mean to tell me to become an idiot who acts like a charlatan?”

“What’s wrong with that?”

“what?!”

“This guy brought a baduk stone to the chessboard and changed the rules.

But I don’t want to criticize Dam Sa-young’s method itself. Rather, I should praise him for shaking up the board. “You can’t do that if you don’t have the ability.”

“…!!”

“Do you understand what I mean? At the very least, this means that this great country, in which you, me, and Damsayoung are determined to win, does not limit soft methods such as trickery or betrayal.

“I have too many lives on my shoulders to fight while limiting such things.”

Zheng Zhongbaek bit his lip.

Virtue as a leader. In Zhejiang, he appeared more like a leader than Xiliang.

As a leader, there were times when he had to risk his life, but when fighting, he had to survive even with the help of those around him.

Seoliang couldn’t do that. Maybe that’s why he didn’t chase after me. Because if you die, war will break out.

Seo-ryang, who was like that, is now discussing his virtue as a leader and his attitude as someone who seeks to dominate the world.

And what he said was absolutely right only in this crazy battlefield.

“My answer is the same. I already joined hands with him. “I have no intention of crushing my pride as the head of the Sa Sect with your teachings.”

“Then I have only one thing to say and one action to take.”

“…?”

“I will wipe out Sanghyeolseong Castle first.”

Zheng Zhongbaek widened his eyes.

Xi Liang’s smile faded.

“Exploiting the enemy’s weaknesses is the basis of tactics.

“Dam Sa-young has no choice but to keep an eye on this area anyway, so we’ll have to keep his gaze and go in first from the wound.”

“what…?!”

“The leader’s mentality is such that it seems like if we send in just a few troops and shake him up, he will easily collapse. “There are so many ways to deal with people like you that it’s hard to count them all.”

“this person!”

“why? “Do you think it’s cowardice?”

“Shut up! “If you really want to fight against your true nature, I’ll fight you anytime!”

“Ohh?”

Xiliang’s eyes grew cold.

“That’s good. “I never imagined that the drums of war would sound where we are today, but that’s not a bad thing.”

“and!”

Wooooow!

A red-hot dragon-shaped energy appeared from Zheng Zhengbaek’s body.

It was the manifestation of the Bloodless Monster Dragon Lord.

“I’ll bury you, the leader of the enemy, first!”

The Tiger King growled lowly.

Xu Liang nodded.

“Look, you can do it, right?”

“What nonsense!”

“You’re the type of person who can easily destroy the words you just said yourself. “Didn’t you say you wouldn’t touch me for today?”

“…!!”

“You are that kind of guy. “His greed has disappeared and half of his teeth have fallen out, but his claws are still usable.”

“that!”

“A guy who can overturn anything I say just because he’s angry. It’s just like that for you and me. That’s why we’re creating this mess to win over the world.”

A look of emptiness appeared on Song Zhengbaek’s face.

Why? It seemed like Seo-ryang’s body was getting bigger and bigger. It felt like he was controlling himself with his huge body spreading out his hands.

He freely plays with his emotions, as if he were moving a doll tied to a string.

And then he realizes that he has not yet overcome his mind.

The fact that the tongue of the person who caused the dream is swaying back and forth proves that one has fallen into a deeper mind.

Xu Liang laughed like a devil.

“Betrayal in war diplomacy is not that difficult.”
