Chronicles of the Demon Faction

Chapter 401

Episode 401 Casting a new shadow (1)

“Mawi (??)?! Are you holding a coronation ceremony for the religious leader?”

“yes.”

“At this point?”

“Actually, if you think about it another way, I don’t think there is a better time than now.

Over the past thirty years, external activities have been reduced, but power has grown in inverse proportion.

“The previous religious leader comforted the church members with his powerful dignity and power in internal affairs, but they are still beasts that tear at flesh.”

“In other words, what you’re saying is that we need to establish a new demon as soon as possible to resolve their complaints?” “

Why would people reverence a god? I don’t think they respect a god simply because he is a great being.”

“Is there something you wish for from God?”

“Yes. People look for someone who can save them from a hellish world, someone who can enrich their lives.

Isn’t religion the gathering of those wishes?”

“It’s a fresh perspective. Although it may be unpleasant to believers who follow God.”

“In any case, there is a need for someone who can comfort the believers who believe in and follow God. Moreover, the leader of the previous cult was a Heavenly Demon who was considered the greatest of all time.

It would be difficult to describe in words the anger of the believers because such a great man died fighting the enemy.”

“You’re right. It won’t be good for the leader’s position to be vacant for a long time.”

“That’s right.”

“I thought what a great talent he was, so he came to the midfield and wanted to become the leader of the school before I even saw his face…. He is an interesting person in many ways.”

“That’s right.

In fact, after the affairs of the main palace were all taken care of, I tried to help him solidify the position of succession, but before I knew it, he had taken over the position of successor on his own, and the position of leader was already just around the corner.”

“There are people like that in the world. A person who possesses a combination of drive without haste, courage to guard against recklessness, and caution with a hint of timidity.

Even if such a person is not talented in literature or martial arts, he or she will leave a mark on the world.”

“So will your father go see him too?”

“Isn’t he the one who formed an alliance with my son and successor?

Even if it wasn’t necessary, my body improved so much thanks to it. “I received such great help that I should seek it out.”

“I understand. I will tell the same to the Sojyoju.”

“Anyway, why can’t we see our idiot?”

“I’m training.”

“training? “Martial arts?”

“yes. “It looks like I learned a lot while traveling to the central plains with So Jyoju.”

“It looks like you’re finally coming to your senses now. Yes, the world is rough. Even if you don’t live in Jungwon, you never know what will happen at any time.

Even though I had talent, I was wasting it, so I’m glad I realized it now.”

“……”

“Why are you looking at me like that?”

“What you’re saying is that you don’t want to live in the middle of nowhere… Have you given up yet?”

“Giving up? Why would the word ‘give up’ come up when I haven’t even tried?”

“I don’t know if you know this, but I was really shocked. “I didn’t know that you thought so much about So Jyoju.”

“People don’t know something just by looking at it. Moreover, although the main palace is called the seat of the four palaces, it is kept in check by the remaining three palaces.

“I think it’s never a bad thing to have a solid relationship.”

“I don’t know about Lin, but I don’t know what Master Xiao will think.”

“Okay, let’s check that out as we go.”

“That’s right.”

The head of a mysterious sect living in a crystal palace of perpetual ice that did not melt even in the pouring sunlight came to the central plain.

It was truly a surprise to the world, but it was not widely known because the situation in the Central Plains was so chaotic.

There were guests who had come down from the north, and there was a bit of a commotion in the gathering of the most authentic people that Xu Liang had ever seen.

“Cult leader?”

“Yes, father.”

“her! “You mean that young genius I saw back then has already become the leader of a cult?”

“Because the situation is not good. Moreover, since the former leader of the cult died in the central plains, the anger of the cultists will reach the sky.

“Don’t you need someone to calm that anger?”

“I guess so. I still remember the dance in Hwangsan Mountain.

Looking at the monster-like Shinjin, who is young but has accumulated a wealth of experience, I realized that a new era had finally begun, and he was already at the top of Mt. Taisan, looking up at the sky.

“It is really fast.”

“That’s right.”

“So what does the head of the family plan to do?”

“I always pursue uprightness and righteousness. “You don’t need the attention of those around you to walk that path.”

“That is correct.”

“However, as someone in charge of a family, I cannot help but think about the safety of the family members.”

“hmm.”

“Please do so. As a member of the Namgung family, not as the previous head of the family, could you come and congratulate me instead?”

“Ugh? “This old man?”

“Yes.”

“I want to tell you in advance that I’m not saying this because I don’t want to go.

Both I and the matriarch were impressed by the demon dragon, but our paths are clearly different. “I think a letter is enough.”

“Of course it is. However, since I was a close friend of him, I do not think that a letter cannot be substituted.”

“if?”

“Isn’t there a debt of your life?”

“…..!”

“In my heart, I would like to visit in person to congratulate and express my gratitude. However, at a time when the world is in turmoil, I think I, as the head of the family, should not be absent.”

“Hehe, the matriarch had her own thoughts.”

“I’m just sorry. “I wonder if I wasted the time to devote myself to kendo…”

“No, I said that martial arts is the pursuit of heavenly principles, and that heavenly principles are in direct contact with human principles.

Fiction .” “How can you reach the Way by locking yourself in a room all day and just cutting with a knife?”

“What do you mean?”

“I fully understand the feelings of the matriarch. “For the first time in a while, this old man will come back and breathe in the atmosphere of the midfield.”

“thank you. And I’m sorry.”

It is said that even a family that can be said to be a symbol of the North Sea’s giant militaristic family in the Central Plains also sends people. But that was all.

There were quite a few people with whom Seoliang came to the central plain and formed relationships.

However, most of them were bad relationships, and even those who had good relationships were almost all members of the political faction.

Naturally, it was difficult for them to easily send congratulatory letters, even if it was because of the organization they belonged to.

However, the important thing is that the owner of the Heavenly Demon Church is changing.

Now that the Uicheon Alliance was half destroyed and the Iron Blood Fortress was silent, the current martial arts world was chaos itself.

When the strong balance of power was broken, all kinds of new factions were founded in various parts of the central plains.

Originally, it was said that hundreds of sects were born and died every day, but now it is much worse than that.

Wars between clans became frequent, and force took precedence over law.

It was at a time when factions breaking the unwritten rule of not touching civilians were popping up one by one.

It was said that the Great Master of Magic would be changing at a time when the world was becoming unsightly, so the atmosphere in the martial arts world was extremely gloomy.

Hundred Thousand Great Mountains, where gazes filled with anxiety, fear, anger, and tension are directed.

The winds of change were blowing there too. The wind that will go beyond the Heavenly Demon Church and become a typhoon that will shake the world.

White smoke rose from a long incense stick.

It was an incense manufactured directly by Shingyo. The scent was somewhat reminiscent of a Buddhist temple, but it was a little different. It was heavier and thicker.

‘But I’m used to it because I tried it once.’

Just before I became the heir, I did something called memorial service for the first time for those who died because of my generosity before I was reincarnated.

After that, I thought I would never have to commemorate someone again. Even if Ma Dong-pil or Wei Hong-ryeon died, there was no intention to commemorate them.

I believed that if we had such a deep relationship, we would definitely be able to meet even after death.

But it wasn’t Lee Cheon-sang.

It never occurred to me that even if I died as a human being without reaching heaven, I would be able to meet him in the afterlife.

I thought that if there was an afterlife, I wouldn’t be able to meet him there either.

Aside from everything else, Lee Cheon-sang was the first teacher that Seo-ryang had. He is the first teacher and the last teacher.

It was natural to be polite to the deceased as a disciple.

He knelt down, closed his eyes, and was lost in thought for a while before opening his mouth.

“How are you comfortable there?”

Seoliang opened his eyes and raised his head.

There was no one there. Only the dark empty space greeted Seoryang.

Seoliang complained. When

he opened his mouth and asked with his voice, Lee Cheon-sang seemed to have been waiting. I felt like I could hear a voice.

Isn’t he the one who has often appeared in my dreams and even made his voice heard through the commandment gate of the Demon Emperor?

“I see you’ve really gone.”

I haven’t yet achieved the reigning Demon Emperor. That’s why I didn’t understand the real reason why only those who open the Desire Gate are called Heavenly Demons.

But I vaguely knew. How could Lee Cheon-sang look at himself thousands of miles away through the Desire Gate? Was it possible?

‘It’s called spiritual energy.’

The person who opened the gate of desire is imbued with spirituality. Spirituality is the realm of Dan Sang-jeon. Lee Cheon-sang was able to look into the situation and mind of the person who opened the gate of desire with the spiritual power of San Sang-jeon, which was beyond its limits.

That is why he was able to look into the situation and mind of the person who opened the gate of desire.

His past life must have also known.

“These are all useless abilities. What would you do if you had such abilities? In the end, you can’t compete with Heaven.”

In fact, it makes no sense that he could have withstood Heaven’s temptation for so long, but Seoryang, who had been hesitant, soon sighed and said,

“I wanted to swear at you, but I couldn’t find the words to come out.”

As the leader of the Heavenly Demon Church, there was no need to talk about how he would rule the Church in the future or whether he would create a world of magic, etc. It

was impossible to say comforting words to someone who left a future he did not know.

However, he will do his best. That’s it. One thing was certain, so he said,

“I will do well. As Master said, I will try to live fiercely one more time.”

Xu Liang chuckled.

“You might break the tower that Master has built over decades. Think about it more than karma and understand it.”

It was then.

“So……. Oh, I’m sorry, leader.”

Ma Dong-pil’s voice was heard outside the door.

“Leaders gathered in Daejeon.”

“I get it.”

“yes.”

Seoryang, who was quietly looking at the smoke produced by the incense, stood up and

said, “I told the people who were wronged because of me in the past. I said that

I would not come back and that I would tear up the Protestant religion from its roots so that there would never be victims like you again. “I said I would come visit you if I had it.”

Perhaps it will be in the distant future. Like Lee Cheon-sang, I could stop by when I feel it is okay to pass everything on to my successor.

“But I will come here often. For some reason, the position of leader of this cult seems quite lonely.

Since you went that way on your own, I believe you will at least talk to your disciple.”

It was as if I could hear Lee Cheon-sang’s voice, like an auditory hallucination.

Don’t panic.

Seo-ryang, who was smiling and looking down at the incense, slapped his face with both hands.

match! match!

“Let’s go.”

Seo-ryang turned around to make a loud noise, and his eyes were burning with demonic energy.

“I guess I’ll have to first calm down the noisy old men who are making a fuss.”

thud!

The door opened and strong sunlight poured in.
