Chronicles of the Demon Faction

Chapter 99

Episode 99. Protestant Outlaw (3)

That night.

Seo-ryang returned to his residence and looked around.

“Hmm, I hope Cherry Blossom is having a good time.”

I sent the cherry blossoms to the annex of Hwanheewon to enjoy a four-day vacation.

Cherry Blossoms also belonged to Hwanheewon, so they would have been busy all the time, but the maids of high-ranking people were able to fully enjoy the festival called Pasunje.

Xu Liang smiled.

‘Now that I think about it, I’ve been very indifferent to cherry blossoms lately.’

We couldn’t even have much conversation because of things like training martial arts and stabbing the magic sword master.

‘Should I teach Aenghwa martial arts as well? It won’t be a big deal, but it would still be good to have enough martial arts to protect myself.’

He looked up at the sky.

The sky looking up from my residence was as good as always. It was dark because it was night, but the twinkling stars and cool moonlight were very fascinating.

Seo-ryang’s face, which had been smiling and looking at the sky, gradually became distorted.

“…anyway.”

Is it because there is no one around? I find myself lamenting my situation once again.

“The remote area is also spacious. Even if other successors had come forward, it could have been handled well.”

Once again, I remembered Hongwimun Gate, which I had destroyed.

If Hong Wi-Mun was still fine, Gogu might have asked Hong Wi-Mun to do this first.

His martial arts skills and instantaneous wit are by far the best, but his knowledge and understanding of Shinism falls far short of other successors. Xu Liang thought so.

‘Wouldn’t it have been better to find a way to get out of here at that time?’

No, it is definitely more efficient if you think about your own dreams.

Xu Liang shook his head.

‘Don’t be ridiculous. If you didn’t know, it wouldn’t be right to ignore it.’

It’s funny to talk about a former assassin, but this issue is different.

‘I have no intention of becoming a medical doctor. But you have to be a person.’

This is exactly what happened. People should know how to be angry together when asked for something like this, even if they cannot help.

Meanwhile, Seoryang also had strength. Of course I had to help.

Xu Liang’s face became bitter.

“You idiot, when will your dreams come true?”

At that time, a blunt voice came from behind me.

“What is the dream of the Three Confucius?”

Seo-ryang shrugged his shoulders as if he had known it all along.

“well? If you’re really curious, try guessing.”

The moonlight fell diagonally on the left side of Gogu’s face with his arms crossed.

“I thought this when I first encountered the Three Dukes.”

“what.”

“The Three Dukes have no regrets about Protestantism.”

“….”

“I don’t know what your dream is. It has nothing to do with me. But it was strange. Still, he was chosen by the religious leader himself as his disciple, so why doesn’t he have even an ounce of ambition?”

“You overestimate me.”

“You sound like a political fan. Why is lack of ambition overrated?”

“If you develop something like ambition, life becomes difficult. “It’s best to just eat well, eat well, and sleep well.”

“But you did not refuse my request. “If I had just said no, I wouldn’t have had such a headache.”

Xu Liang chuckled.

“just because I got bored.”

“Do you know? “The Three Dukes are clearly visible when they lie.”

“Thank you for the good information.”

“I guess that’s why I did it.”

“what?”

Gogu’s eyes calmed down.

“What the Three Dukes thought was dangerous.”

“It’s not like poetry.”

“Because your martial arts skills are strong and you don’t know where it will fly? no. “I now realize why the Three Dukes thought it was dangerous and why I felt an inexplicable sense of discomfort.”

“….”

“Sam Gongja is not a suitable person for our school.”

Xu Liang’s eyes wavered.

“If you drop a drop of ink into a clear puddle, the entire puddle becomes polluted. People are like that too.

“No matter how good a person is, if they come to an extreme place like our school, they will change.”

“Geunmukjaheuk (????)?”

“But the Three Dukes were different. “Even though he had a more prestigious status than anyone else in our school, he never tried to mix with our school.”

It’s sharp.

It certainly seems that the head of the criminal law department is not a position that can be held by a dog or a cow. I realized once again that in addition to having an unwavering opinion, you also need to have an excellent eye for people.

“So you’re dissatisfied?”

“Just as it doesn’t matter to me what the Three Dukes’ dreams are, it also doesn’t matter to me what kind of person the Three Dukes are.

I just do what I have to do in my position. Therefore, I have no complaints.”

“Good idea. “If you wander around here and there, you’ll only have more enemies.”

Seoyang sat down in the training hall.

“You didn’t forget what I said earlier, right? Dongpil is waiting, so watch carefully. “I will move when the time comes.”

“….”

“Go back now. I want to be alone.”

“I don’t know if you know, but tomorrow is the day when high-ranking members of the Demonic Martial Forest offer their greetings to the leader.

And after the ancestral rites, a grand meeting for the future of the Demonic Martial Forest will be held.”

“So what.”

“Of course, there will be reports of unpleasant incidents that have occurred recently.”

“….”

“The incident of the death of the leader of the Uicheon Alliance will also be discussed.”

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

“Did you know?”

“exactly.”

“If you knew, why didn’t you arrest me sooner? “Isn’t it a felony to go out into the countryside without permission?”

“Because the leader doesn’t want it.”

“….”

“The sect leader, please spare the three princes. “I don’t think they would like to be put in a penal court in a situation like this.”

“But you won’t tell me not to do that.”

“That’s also true.”

The two were silent for a moment.

It was Gogu who broke the strange silence.

“Just as you turned a blind eye to the expulsion of the Three Confucius, can you turn a blind eye to my mistakes?”

“What did you do?”

“I haven’t committed yet.”

Flash!

A terrifying radiance bloomed from Gogu’s eyes.

“I’m going to commit it now.”

Paaaaaaaa!

Xu Liang’s eyes wavered.

Although the distance was not that close, Gogu was already close to our nose.

‘fast!’

It was truly incredible speed. Unlike when he simply tried to receive Seo-ryang’s martial arts in the criminal court, Gogu’s movements, which he made with determination and opened up his martial arts, were terrifying.

Xi Liang reflexively grabbed the Yonglin Dao.

Quang!

A huge sword was engraved in the training hall.

It was something that no one could easily avoid, but Gogu avoided it very easily. He momentarily moved to the right and fired a blow.

Xiliang erected a wallpaper on Yongrin Island.

Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!

His body shook.

‘Be strong!’

It was easily avoidable, but Xi Liang chose to defend.

Awesome!

Gogu floated into the air and swung his leg towards the top of Seoryang’s head.

It’s a sharp angle technique that makes your hair go crazy. What was being swung wasn’t a leg, it felt like a blade.

Seoryang’s wrist, holding the Yonglindo, rotated.

Whoa!

Gogu’s body soared higher into the air. The counter-resilience emanating from Yongrin Island was beyond imagination, so simple defense could not distract it.

Paaang!

Although I have never seen Lee Cheon-sang’s martial arts skills properly, at least when it comes to divine and martial arts, Seo-ryang was undoubtedly the best in the world.

In an instant, Seoryang flew into the air and swung the Yonglindo once again.

It was the six-year hell wind of the old Yuinhwa method.

Rumbling!

A storm is brewing and thunder is heard. Gogu’s clothes were cut here and there.

He covered his face with both arms, and his eyes shined through the gap between his open arms. He realized that Western Taoism was much more advanced than it was at the time.

Pow!

Seo-ryang’s body fell down. Gogu’s fist attack aimed at the gap was blocked, but the hovering time was drastically reduced.

But Seo-ryang did not just suffer.

Fuuuuuuu!

Gogu’s body fell in an arc. At the same time as blocking the fighting technique, it also delivered a blow from Jecheongi’s longing technique, Geumra Shinjang (????).

thud!

The two people landed on the ground almost at the same time.

And almost simultaneously they jumped at each other.

Faaagh!

The moving speed of the two people was so fast that they could not be followed with the naked eye. The two people, who had already narrowed the distance, generously displayed their respective seasons.

Puff poop! Kwarung!

The sound of heavy drinking echoed everywhere, and the scattering careers were scattered in all directions.

And at some point.

Kaaaaang!

The heavy sword was blocked by the strong sword that stood upright.

A soft sword that was less than half a tube blocked a heavy sword that was 30 times heavier. It was an incredible story that was hard to believe even when you saw it with your own eyes.

Xu Liang grinned.

“Have you finally taken it out?”

“Did you know?”

“The glaring eyes should have been sharp.”

“Even the Three Dukes didn’t use their true martial skills.”

“I told you, right? “I don’t think you should know much about me.”

Gogu, who was looking at Seoryang with eyes whose meaning was difficult to understand, momentarily infused power into his soft sword.

Boom!

The two men each retreated a long distance away.

Xu Liang frowned.

“Anyway, why are you suddenly stabbing me this late at night? “Did you want to at least boost morale before proceeding with work?”

“….”

“Anyway, I think I want to stop stabbing. “I’ll turn a blind eye, so just go and relax.”

Xiliang carried Yonglindo on his back.

Gogu looked down at the soft sword he was holding.

‘A righteous sword…?’

Wooooow.

If the true energy is not injected, the soft sword will bend in various directions.

But now, his soft sword was losing strength and bending even though he had injected true energy into it. This meant that the sword pressure emitted by Yonglindo was enormous.

Gogu wore a soft sword around his waist.

“I understand why the leader was interested in you.”

“What do you know?”

“Three Confucius.”

“why!”

“Be careful, leader.”

Xiliang paused.

Gogu’s low voice circulated like rapid water and entered his ears.

“He is so infinitely dark that one cannot tell where it ends, and so bright that the human eye cannot even fully see him.

“He is a person whose heart-breaking anger and resentment has reached its peak and has become rather cold, but who does not hesitate to explode like an active volcano at any time.”

“….”

“He is someone who sees everything in the world as fun and at the same time fears everything in the world.

“A person who stepped into hell and looked up at the sky, and then suddenly stood on a cloud and looked down into hell.”

Kuuk.

Gogu clenched his fist.

“The leader says that’s the kind of person he is.”

“I don’t understand a word.”

“I didn’t think you would understand. However, if such a moment ever comes, I hope you remember these words of mine.”

Gogu turned around.

“The captain is the Three Dukes. “I hope you will take the lead in this matter and lead us.”

With those words, Gogu left Seoryang’s residence.

Xu Liang sighed.

“I’m already so depressed that I feel like I’m going to die, but I’m losing my mind.”

* * *

Zech.

Weak movement. And the sound that movement makes.

Ma Dong-pil, who was sitting cross-legged, opened his eyes.

“Are you here?”

He raised his head.

Before he knew it, a monster was looking down at him with his back turned to the bright moonlight.

Ma Dong-pil’s eyes sank deeply.

“Confucius was right. It really was you.”

The monster, who was looking down at Ma Dong-pil with blue eyes, slowly raised one hand.

Woooooo!!

A powerful energy wave that resonates from your fingertips.

Ma Dong-pil held the sword of the Mukwanggeom.

Chaaaaang!
