Chronicles of the Demon Faction

Chapter 268

Episode 268 Unconventional outing (6)

The place where the carriage stopped was in front of a waterfall located deep in the mountains.

Shoot!!

The pouring waterfall is deafening. But I never thought it was noisy. The sound was loud, but it somehow made me feel at peace.

“The view is nice.”

It was time for the whole group to come out and look at the strangely shaped rocks surrounding the waterfall.

“Are you here?”

A man walked out from next to the waterfall.

Seo-ryang’s eyes sparkled.

‘Look at this?’

A man who appears to be a similar age to Ma Dong-pil.

He was a man of medium height with an ordinary appearance. Although I learned martial arts, I was never at the level of being called an expert.

So Seo-ryang was surprised.

‘You didn’t feel any presence?’

It was said that he moved so secretly that he could not even be caught by the spirit of the extreme demon master.

This was not normal. Seoliang was even called the world’s best killer. This means that the art of hiding has become more advanced.

‘how?!’

For a moment, Seo-ryang’s eyes lit up.

‘It’s the true law.’

Yes.

There is a huge camp surrounding the waterfall here. The flowing energy was so natural that the existence of Jinbeop was not immediately noticed.

‘It’s because of that waterfall. The sound of the waterfall, the impact of falling on the water, and hitting the stones are all part of the attack. That’s why I didn’t realize it.’

Seoliang couldn’t help but be impressed. It was a top-of-the-line strategy that even he, who was well-versed in the technique, could not dare to think about.

Although it cannot be compared to Panmajeong, it cannot be compared as Panmajeong is out of standard in the first place.

It was clear that, at least among the battle methods scattered throughout the central plains, it was a battle method that competed for supremacy.

“I received a call from Haomun. “They said they would arrive around noon today, and that was true.”

Neoksal is also good. Even though I already know who this person is, I speak to them in a natural way. It was not a normal distribution.

The man lowered his head.

“Greetings. “My name is Hwang Gon, and I am the military master of the Iron Blood Castle.”

“Death brain Hwanggon.”

“I see you recognize me.”

Xu Liang’s eyes lit up.

‘You’re much younger than I thought.’

A genius who became a new soldier two years ago.

Unlike the existing soldiers who are sick and dead, here is an iron-blooded brain that is very good at passionate strategies.

‘He is a person with at least military or higher value. In Iron Blood Castle.’

Cheolhyeolseong is a huge alliance that unites not only the Jeongsajigan sects but also all kinds of sects.

In order to lead such an alliance, something more than the castle lord’s martial arts and political power is needed.

A person who takes care of all the tasks that the castle lord cannot do.

He was Hwang Gon.

“I didn’t know that the rumored Iron-Blooded soldier would come.”

“You should come.”

Huang Kun’s eyes lit up.

“It’s definitely a place you have to come to.”

Seo-ryang, who was looking at him intently, nodded.

“Please guide me.”

“of course. “There is one condition.”

“What are the conditions?”

“Only two people can enter here.”

At least they don’t tell you to come in alone. But was it really necessary to pick up just two people?

“It’s because of the Jinbeop’s capacity.”

Huang Kun’s eyes lit up.

“Exactly.”

“I understand.”

Xiliang looked back. Everyone, including Ma Dong-pil and Yeo Sang-rin, were looking at them.

“Would Lin want to come with me?”

Yeo Sang-rin opened her eyes wide.

“Me?”

“why? Is there a problem?”

Yeo Sang-rin looked at Ma Dong-pil without realizing it. Ma Dong-pil’s face was unexpectedly very calm.

“Why don’t you take Ma’s escort?”

“If something unexpected happens, Dongpil is the only one who can drive the carriage and get out of here. “If I leave you two alone, there will be a huge power vacuum.”

It’s easy to say something like that in front of an iron-blooded soldier. Yeosangrin scratched his head.

“It means adjusting the power appropriately.”

“It doesn’t matter if you go alone. “That might be better.”

Xu Liang smiled.

“What do you want to do? Do you want to go with me or wait here?”

Yeo Sang-rin smiled.

“Of course we should go together. “If not now, when can I see the owner of the Iron Blood Castle?”

It’s clear they’re after something. Yeo Sang-rin obediently agreed to accompany Seo-ryang.

Huang Kun said with a smile.

“You are Binggungju’s daughter.”

“nice to meet you.”

“That’s me. “Shall we just go in now?”

“Good.”

Seoliang glanced at Ma Dongpil.

Ma Dong-pil lowered his head. It meant not to worry.

“let’s go.”

Seoryang and Yeo Sang-rin, led by Hwang Gon, entered the small gap in the rock next to the waterfall.

* * *

There is a saying, “Byeolyucheonji (????).”

It was a term often used to metaphorize a fantastic sight, referring to a different world that is unlikely to exist.

The scene in front of the two of them now was exactly like that.

“…Whoa.”

“Is this heaven?”

Yeo Sang-rin stumbled without realizing it. Seo-ryang was also speechless.

I walked thinking it would lead to a small cave, but that wasn’t the case. After walking about ten steps, another entrance appeared and soon a fairyland appeared.

The loud sound of the waterfall was no longer heard.

The sound of the babbling stream was very refreshing, and the gently blowing wind swirled around my body pleasantly.

There was a large house in front of a steep cliff, and in front of it was a small vacant lot with a large table made of luxurious wood.

And next to the bench, several deer were grazing.

I have seen countless beautiful places in the world, but none compare to this place. The scenery was so great that it could easily be described as Mureungdowon.

“Oh my gosh, all the famous places I’ve seen in Jungwon while traveling so far were all gutter bottoms. “I never thought there would be a place like this.”

An ecstatic light appeared on Yeo Sang-rin’s face. For her, who especially enjoys looking at the scenery, this place was like a gift.

Xi Liang saw Huang Kun.

“Is it a villa?”

“As expected, you know.”

Yes. This was one of the villas of the Iron Blood Lord built throughout the central plains.

Xu Liang shook his head.

“Is it okay to bring foreigners into a place like this?”

“Do not worry. “After today, this place will disappear.”

Yeo Sang-rin felt sad without realizing it.

How dare you destroy such a wonderful place? If it wasn’t a public place, I would have stopped him right away.

“Now, let’s go. “You are waiting.”

“Let’s do that.”

The two people walked following Hwang Kun’s guidance.

How long did it take to walk like that?

Wooooow.

At one point, Seo-ryang stopped walking. When he stopped, Yeo Sang-rin also stopped.

Huang Kun looked back at Xi Liang.

“I was going to tell you to wait, but you noticed it first, right?”

“exactly.”

“…As expected, you are amazing.”

It was a statement filled with pure admiration.

“If you cross this stream without permission, the camp law will be activated immediately. “It is a swamp of death that is difficult for even the world’s top experts to escape from.”

“exactly?”

“To date, no more than three people have recognized this intersection of life and death. “You are truly amazing.”

Xu Liang shook his head.

“Please add a message.”

“All right.”

Huang Kun crossed the stream.

Yeo Sang-rin’s eyes widened.

‘Walk?’

Stepping on water and moving forward.

It was a sight that a person without sharp eyes could mistake for an equalization exercise performed by divine law experts.

Surprised, Yeo Sang-rin immediately felt that Hwang Gon’s steps were particularly stiff.

It feels like walking on solid ground rather than treading water. Not a single drop of water splashed on his pants.

Disappointment appeared on Yeo Sang-rin’s face.

“what’s the matter?”

“No, it’s just… there’s some steam leaking out.”

“Steam is leaking?”

“No matter how beautiful it is, an illusion is ultimately an illusion… That’s what I think.”

Xu Liang smiled.

“The real thing isn’t the only thing that has value. But as you said, an illusion is just an illusion. There is no need to attach great meaning to it.”

“that’s right.”

Yeo Sang-rin asked, looking at Seo-ryang.

“So why did you bring me here?”

“just.”

“You mean just that? “What kind of answer is that?”

“Really. “I just brought him here.”

Xu Liang frowned.

“For some reason, I feel like that’s the way it should be.”

“This is difficult to understand?”

“Let’s call it persimmon. Rather than bringing Dongpil, I thought it would be better to come with you rather than come alone. “It just felt like that.”

Yeo Sang-rin nodded.

A feeling that cannot be explained by logic. It may not be true for other people, but Seo-ryang’s sense is trustworthy.

Seo-ryang often acted according to his intuition, and in such cases, his judgment was usually beneficial to the party.

“What kind of person is this?”

“I don’t know.”

“At least I think he’s an honest person.”

“Why do you think that?”

“You’re not in a position to please the other person by lying, right?”

“That’s true.”

“And that’s why I used it as a concubine to show off. Well, it’s not wrong, but having a young concubine at that age can be embarrassing in many ways, right?

“It could be embarrassing.”

Yeo Sang-rin’s eyes lit up.

“A person who has nothing to worry about. The Iron Blood Lord is probably that kind of person.

“I think there is a high possibility that he is a person who is honest about his desires and does not hesitate to show his ugliness.”

Xu Liang smiled.

“Would you like to check if your prediction is correct?”

“yes? “Shouldn’t we wait?”

It was then.

“Even though Sojeo is young, he has quite a sharp edge.”

Wooooow!

The soft voice contained an irresistible weight.

Weeing! Wow!

The world, which was once perfectly beautiful, became distorted.

The flowing stream suddenly drew a curve. The number of deer grazing the grass quickly increased to dozens, and then decreased to just one or two.

There were places where the ground sank in, and the passing clouds were distorted at will. It seemed as if the formation was not doing its job.

Seo-ryang’s eyes sparkled.

‘It’s similar to back then.’

When competing with Lee Cheon-sang.

That was the time when I increased the output of the demonic attack to improve his achievement of not being able to hold the three-stage Thirteen Demon King Terror Ceremony of the old Demonic Duke.

It felt similar to the time when the Panmajeong, maintained by Lee Cheon-sang’s demonic power, collapsed.

Of course, the magnitude of the power was not comparable, but the pressure that emanated from the cracks in the collapsing formation was similar.

‘As expected…’

Seoryang’s magical eyes flashed.

‘Strong. ‘It’s an incredibly strong opponent.’

hook.

The door to the villa did not even open. However, two men appeared between the villa and the table.

It literally appeared in a flash. I don’t know what kind of harmony would make such an appearance possible.

Cheeeeeeeek!

A strong energy rose from Seo-ryang’s body.

It was an instinctive response. The body is reacting on its own. The powerful energy wave emitted took over the entire area in an instant.

And in that wave… Surprisingly, there was a mixture of life and death.

‘Iron-blooded!’

I tried to calm my mind again and again.

Still, I have no choice but to react. Still, I couldn’t suppress it completely.

The head of the group that tormented him the most, killing him.

Although they had never met each other, the person who had always maintained a place in a corner of the growing web of hatred had finally appeared.

Ugh! Wooooow!

Xiliang tried hard to suppress his desire to live.

“Interesting.”

The one in front of the two men.

He must have been in his early fifties. A well-built man with grizzled hair that was neatly pulled back spoke with a smile.

“They say we can’t be good friends, but should we live from the beginning? In front of me too? “It’s really different.”

Seo-ryang took a deep breath and asked with a smile.

“Are you the Lord of Iron Blood?”

“That’s right. I am the owner of Iron Blood Castle.”

One of the world’s top ten masters.

It was the appearance of Suraje (???) Song Geum-baek (???), who, along with Uicheon Muje Dam Sa-yeong, was the closest to the martial power of the time.
