Chronicles of the Demon Faction

Chapter 533

Episode 533 The Toothless Lion’s Remorse (1)

“Does this mean that the troops that came up the road remained and the troops that faced Bingung were completely wiped out?”

“That’s right.”

“Hmm…”

Ho Yaoseong’s eyes sparkled.

‘I told you not to go to the front.’

Dam Sa-yeong is about to hit Binggung. And the Heavenly Demon Church cannot provide any help there. If you make a mistake, an all-out war could break out before you are ready.

However, the situation has changed, so even if an all-out war breaks out, the Church of the Heavenly Demon has a high chance of winning this time. This is because the speed of power input is bound to be slow as they have to pay attention to the blood spirit of Hebei, Shanxi, and Shandong.

Still, it is better to avoid an all-out war if possible. A huge number of people will die, and unnecessary sacrifices are just disgusting.

So I didn’t want to send the demon king spirit, but…

“Give me a detailed report.”

“Here it is.”

After scanning the report, Hu Yaosheng nodded.

‘As expected, you handled it well.’

Why he changed his mind. In other words, the reason they risked an all-out war and sent the Demon King Spirit was because of the characteristics of the unit called the Demon King Spirit.

He believed in Wei Honglian.

To be precise, I trusted her senses.

Even though Wei Hongryeon was not very smart, he had the ability to instinctively read the flow of the game. Her abilities were so special that it was understandable why the leader appointed her as the Demon Lord.

It’s the same this time too.

‘It was a thorough bombing war. very good.’

The use of firearms in Gangho is prohibited regardless of whether it is a righteous or evil demon. At least that was the case externally.

However, Xiliang and Hu Yao-seong even provided fire bombs and improved artillery to Mawangryeong.

They were an organization that had to carry out all kinds of dangerous missions, including infiltration and assassination. It would not be enough to give something more than just fire bombs.

also.

‘The emperor and the royal seal are with us. When criticism pours in over the use of gunpowder, it just boils down to a fight for justification and that’s it.’

He is a wise man who straddles the line between caution and extremeness. This was the reason why Li Cheon-sang favored Hu Yao-seong in Xiliang.

‘But how will Damsayoung recognize the existence of the demon king’s spirit?’

Some organization that followed the demon king’s spirit was tied up by blowing up the cliff, and those who chased after Ice Palace were annihilated by attacks from Ice Palace people and ultra-small cannons modified from the Tang family’s gunpowder machine.

In other words, no magic was used. In addition, the stealth art that the Demon King Spirit has learned is that of the Hocheon Demon Emperor, so it is difficult for even a transcendental expert to recognize it.

‘I’m curious.’

If he didn’t know that Demon King Spirit was a member of the Heavenly Demon Church, he would immediately keep an eye on Sacheon. The reason why the Demon King was sent to Sacheon was because he was trying to overturn the efforts of the Seven Sects to gather power around the Sacheon Tang Family.

Moreover, all the firearms handled by the Demon King were based on the Tang family’s technological capabilities. As Damsayoung, one way or another, she has no choice but to keep an eye on the party family.

On the other hand, what if the Demon Lord finds out that he belongs to the Heavenly Demon Church?

‘Are you really going to fight?’

This was Hu Yaocheng’s bold move.

He rather hoped that Dam Sa-yeong would recognize the identity of the demon king. In other words, Hu Yaosheng wants to see Dam Sayoung’s reaction.

Will Damsayoung really try to start an all-out war? Or will he show caution once more?

‘Given his personality, he would rather endure it one more time than an all-out war. But if an all-out war breaks out…’

Even if an all-out war breaks out, the victory is in the hands of this side.

Ho Yo-seong, holding on to so many lives, attempted Damsa-yeong again.

‘If there is an all-out war, that’s when the royal seal will be taken out.’

There was a reason why the royal seal had not been taken out until now.

Because I didn’t know what they were going to do. There is nothing more terrifying than the struggle of someone who is cornered. Hu Yaosheng wanted to lead this war to victory with minimal damage.

However, contradictory to that, I gave up on the other person even though I knew that countless lives were at stake.

Hu Yaosheng smiled bitterly.

“I don’t know what I want either.”

As the fight with Dam Sa-yeong continued for a long time, the world’s Ho Yaoseong felt like his mind was becoming dizzy.

I don’t like all-out war. However, I don’t think it would be a bad thing if an all-out war broke out.

I hate seeing people die. However, even if it means risking everyone’s lives, I want to consider the other person’s intentions one more time.

‘In the end, we’ve reached the end.’

This one-of-a-kind match against Dam Sa-young is finally entering its final phase.

‘If Dam Sa-yeong finds out that we helped Binggung and does not choose an all-out war…’

Ho Yo-seong’s eyes glowed dangerously.

‘Depending on the situation, even if we launch an all-out war first…’

It is a dangerous idea.

And Ho Yo-seong was wary of himself for thinking of such thoughts. Maybe it’s Dam Sa-young’s plan to tire this side out.

The important thing is that nothing is good because it has to be rushed.

“Wow, that’s hard.”

Chohae asked.

“What do you mean?”

“no. “It’s just that I’m also human, so I guess I’m slowly getting fed up with the long-term conflict.”

“Are you talking about Damsayoung?”

“exactly.”

Hu Yaosheng suddenly became curious.

“What do you think of Eumsangdanju?”

“What do you mean?”

“Who do you think will win this fight between the main school and Damsa Young?”

Even after spitting out the words, Hu Yaosheng laughed at himself for asking such a ridiculous question. Asking these questions won’t solve the problem.

“well. “It’s a fight with so many variables that it’s hard to make a decision.”

“Haha, I guess so. It’s a fight with many variables… That’s right. I’m sorry. “I asked a useless question.”

“no.”

Chohae shook his head, changed his expression, and asked.

“But.”

“hmm?”

“This is just my personal curiosity, so don’t worry too much about it.”

“What kind of question are you asking so long?”

“Well…”

Why am I saying this at this moment? Chohae was also puzzled.

However, I knew clearly that it was time to say this. It was Cho Hae-man’s sense, like Wei Hongryun’s sense, that was an informant who handled information and was chasing Ji Mo.

To lead this fight to victory.

“In your past confrontations with Dam Sa-young, haven’t you always dragged the fight into a situation where there are no variables?”

Ho Yaoseong tilted his head.

“A situation with no variables…?”

“That’s right.”

Cho Hae’s eyes sparkled.

“The leader knew a surprising amount about Damsayeong. That’s a huge advantage. “The better you know about your enemy, the more accurately you can predict how they will move.”

“That is correct.”

“But didn’t you, Commander-in-Chief, always have your back, even when you moved alone?”

Hu Yaosheng smiled.

“That’s too much praise. “It was something I had to do as a general.”

“Of course, you can say that, but… Lord Somun and I could not help but be amazed every time we saw the amazing plans of the Commander-in-Chief. “The flexibility of his strategy and tactics was unrivaled.”

“haha.”

“What’s even more surprising is that the extremely flexible strategic tactics became a tight net for the enemy, allowing them to do as they pleased.”

“…hmm?”

“Just looking at this incident of stealing the royal seal, the Commander-in-Chief’s plan was astounding. “You tied the enemy’s attention by throwing a card called the leader that should never be shown, and then dragged him to the ice palace and set a double or triple trap, right?”

Hu Yaosheng’s eyes sparkled.

“Also, through the strategies we have used so far, we have impressed upon the enemy that Commander-in-Chief is an extremely unconventional figure. It was truly a terrifying trap. Damsayeong’s side probably still doesn’t know that the royal seal is over here.”

“…!”

“The general’s strategy was like that. It doesn’t start and end based on one incident. “We just used it as part of a grand plan that has been in the works for years.”

Chohae smiled.

“That’s why I think the Commander-in-Chief’s strategy is flexible. No matter how the other side comes out, it’s all within the expected range. Didn’t you force your opponent into a corner with a strategy that flows like water rather than multiple strategies?”

“….”

“In the end, if what the Commander-in-Chief wants is the complete destruction of the enemy and the path toward the world of magic, wouldn’t you use a move that completely blocks the enemy’s variables as before, but doesn’t cause any problems even if the variables explode?”

“yes.”

Hu Yaocheng looked up into space blankly.

The strategies that had been conceived and implemented so far were drawn like a checkerboard in the empty air.

“Yes, I did. “I used to move that way.”

After looking up into the sky for a long time, Huo Yaoseong grabbed both of Chohae’s hands.

“Thank you! Thank you so much!”

“Yes…?”

“I forgot about myself for a moment. “Thanks to Eumsangdanju, I realized how I moved in the past.”

Cho Hae was dumbfounded.

“Ah… I would be honored if it helped.”

“It was helpful. “It became big.”

Hu Yaosheng laughed loudly.

In the meantime, he and Seo-ryang only knew about the opponent, but only investigated the situation around the opponent moment by moment, leading the game to their advantage.

It was a strategy suited to Xiliang’s unconventional and competitive nature. Hu Yao-seong thoroughly supported him and destroyed his opponent using a piece called Xioliang, which was more free and threatening than Chapo (??).

However, at some point, Seoliang stopped coming to the forefront.

Because he is the religious leader. Hu Yao-seong also did not want the leader to be in danger, so he was looking at the game without holding the card called Xiliang in his hand.

‘It wasn’t like me.’

If necessary, even if I am a religious leader, I can move as I please.

Just like we’ve always done, just like we’ve achieved victory.

“In the future, if our school truly becomes the best in the world, it will be thanks to Hao Wen and the advice of Yin Shangdanju. “This is how I express my gratitude.”

Hu Yaosheng lowered his head.

Of course, Chohae was scared. The Commander-in-Chief of the Heavenly Demon Church is one of the most powerful figures in Wulin. With such a person bowing to him, Cho Hae was literally at a loss as to what to do.

“Don’t do that. I just said what I saw and felt. Rather, I wonder if I am being presumptuous…”

“Presumptuous? “Never think like that.”

Ho Yo-seong smiled brightly.

The shining smile looked more brilliant than ever.

“I would like to take a few days to express my gratitude, but please understand that we are busy. “Let’s have a drink later.”

After some discussion, I received a call from Seo-ryang.

“Heading to Iron Blood Castle?”

Hu Yaosheng’s eyes sparkled.

Before I heard Cho Hae’s words, I would have told him never to head there.

But not now. This time, he planned to achieve a delicious victory through the best piece called Seoryang.

“Rather than dispatching troops, you want to go inside Sanghyeolseong Fortress and destroy some of the opponents of Soseongju and induce chaos.”

Is there anything that can be fixed in that area?

no. Not at all. Hu Yaocheng had no intention of stopping Xiliang. Even the Hocheon Demon Emperor has followed Seoryang now. There will be no major problems with the teacher’s safety.

‘then?’

Hit it vertically.

“Contact the Demon Lord right now! It’s Jiangxi Province, not Sichuan Province! Tell him to take a picture of the head of the Iron Blood Castle with the ‘person’ who is staying in Shandong! ASAP!”

Below is the religious leader, above is the demon king and the king of birds.

The harmony of small powers that cannot be compared to the power of the Iron Blood Castle will cause a natural disaster.
