Chronicles of the Demon Faction

Episode 193 The way of non-humans (7)

While on the way to Jamiru, the two did not talk at all.

It was also a relationship where smooth conversation was difficult to begin with. If the succession battle so far was somewhat vague, it is no longer.

Although they are in a relationship of death penalty, they have to crush each other to become the best. In fact, we are worse than others.

Maybe he didn’t like that stuffy atmosphere?

Jin Gwan-yong was the first to open his mouth.

“Did you hear anything from the Fifth?”

“which?”

“He said he was not interested in the successor position.”

He doesn’t hesitate to bring up the topic of succession. This may be because Jin Gwan-yong knows well that the relationship will not improve if it is wrapped up in various conversations.

“I heard.”

“It’s been like that since long ago. Seoyoon always chased only one thing: martial arts. “Even though he had greater talent than anyone else at the school, he had no interest in power.”

It seem to be like that.

My impression of Joo Seo-yoon was like a cold rock.

A guy who is extremely cold and hard. I don’t know why, but the desire for martial arts in Joo Seo-yoon’s heart will not fade until the moment she dies.

“I was wary of Seo-yoon.”

“I guess so.”

“It has to be that way. “There were some who thought that a woman could not become a religious leader no matter how talented she was, but that was a ridiculous misconception.”

Xu Liang nodded.

Surprisingly, Cheonma Shingyo was more open than any other sect in the Central Plains. There are many scumbags who only see women as sexual objects, but if you have the ability, you can rise to the highest position and make a living.

A representative example was Wei Hongryeon. Even though Wi Hongryeon was a woman and a descendant of the Wi clan, an enemy of the Heavenly Demon Church, she became the Great Lord of the Gwangma at a young age. This was because his abilities were outstanding.

Being evaluated solely based on ability, regardless of origin or gender. The group that strived to realize strong self-respect in the true sense was the Church of Heavenly Demon.

“The leader of this church is the representative of God who received the fortune of the Heavenly Demon. God is a being that is not limited by gender. There is no law that prevents women from becoming religious leaders. “In fact, there was a female religious leader.”

“The Four Great Heavenly Demons.”

“Yes.”

A description of Cheongo’s reign of great strength with a woman’s body.

Surprisingly, the Four Great Heavenly Demons was the time when the viciousness of the Heavenly Demon Church was most highlighted. The reason is that, less than a month after ascending to the position of religious leader, the Four Great Heavenly Demons raised the banner of conquering the central plains.

Is this an unreasonable policy? Not like that.

At that time, the forces of the Heavenly Demon Church invaded Sacheon and Hanam in Hubei and devastated the martial arts faction. The incident in which he single-handedly fought and won against the Shaolin Three Divine Monks, who were considered the best masters of the Shaolin Temple at the time, was very famous.

It was also the second time in history that the world of magic was almost achieved. However, on the third year after his inauguration as the leader of the religious cult, Sadaecheonma died suddenly for unknown reasons, ending the religious conquest of the central plains.

Afterwards, the Church of Heavenly Demon was engulfed in internal strife for decades. This is because the Four Great Heavenly Demons did not decide on a successor, so numerous demons fought to seize power.

“I don’t know how incredibly talented the Four Great Heavenly Demons were. But I don’t think Seo-yoon’s talent is inferior to his.”

“….”

“It is said that Seo-yoon is not interested in becoming the successor. “It was fortunate for me.”

“Are you lucky?”

“You don’t think so?”

Xu Liang shook his head.

“Isn’t this a problem that doesn’t matter now? You have ascended to the peak, and the Fifth has not even surpassed human limits yet. “The gap is too big to be filled with talent.”

“It’s true, but it’s also wrong.”

“hmm?”

Jin Guanyong stopped and looked back at Xi Liang.

“Seoyoon is a weak child.”

I wasn’t talking about martial arts or talent.

“The reason that child’s vision wasn’t revealed is because he wasn’t strong. “If Seoyoon has a strong will to advance towards the world, she will fly into the sky without being hindered by anything.”

“is it?”

“At least I think so. “I’m really glad to hear that Seoyoon is not interested in becoming president.”

This meant that Jin Gwan-yong himself strongly hoped to become the next religious leader.

Xu Liang smiled.

“Honest.”

“There is no reason to hide it now. I had no intention of hiding it in the first place. From the moment I became your disciple, I have been running to become a god. “The presence of competitors is bound to be unwelcome.”

There was a strange look in Jin Gwan-yong’s heavy eyes.

“In that sense, you cannot help but be the most undesirable person to me right now.”

“I guess so.”

“Even though you lost all your martial arts skills after joining the military, you reached that level in just two years?”

“Well, that’s right.”

“You have no idea how surprised I was when I heard that. Even though you don’t have the same talent as Seoyoon, you were able to become so strong. “I don’t know how that was possible.”

You too died once and came back to life.

Of course, Seo-ryang in his previous life was also possessed of great talent. Even if he had mastered the martial arts of the nine factions, what he learned was the sprinkler technique. Although his level was said to be high, it was truly remarkable that he, who grew up on the basis of his skills as a sprinkler with clear limits, reached the level of a master of art in his fifties.

This was possible because he had good concentration and had a lot of experience. If I had lived an easy life, even if I had learned the best martial arts in the world, I would not have even dreamed of Hwagyeong.

“A new level ultimately depends on how you view the world. Some people can gain great experience just by looking around the streets, but others may not be stimulated unless they experience death and murder.”

“That is correct.”

Jin Guanyong’s eyes deepened.

A deep question was cast in those eyes filled with subtle magical energy.

“How about you?”

“what.”

“What must you go through to be motivated?”

Seo-ryang, who was quietly looking at Jin Gwan-yong, smiled and answered.

“I always get stimulation.”

“…?”

“I am stimulated by every step, every breath, and even by chewing a grain of rice.”

“….”

“And just thinking about why you asked me to go to Jamiru makes Magi squirm.”

Jin Guanyong’s eyes wavered.

– I had something to test, but it turned out to be a disappointment.

A guy who wants to test a master who has reached his peak and wants to challenge him to a match.

No matter how confident you are, it is difficult to make such a statement. It’s not that they look down on the other person, but they have no interest in anything other than their own growth.

So, it doesn’t matter who the opponent is. This is because it is all part of learning and a stepping stone to growth.

The world this guy sees is so different from others.

“I see.”

Jin Guanyong smiled.

The glimmer of a smile on his hard face was subtly creepy.

“It was like that.”

At that moment, Seo-ryang felt a strong stimulation ringing in the corner of his head.

Jiiiing!

My extra senses were activated for the first time in a long time.

‘I’ve decided.’

The smile disappeared from Seo-ryang’s face.

‘He decided to kill me.’

I don’t know what they did to Jamiru.

But one thing is certain. From the conversation just now, Jin Gwan-yong was convinced that he was a dangerous guy.

Jin Guanyong turned around.

“egg plant.”

Jin Gwan-yong walks shakily.

A white smile appeared on his shadowy face.

Seo-ryang’s expression was impossible to see, but if someone had seen his face, they would have turned their head in horror.

Another moment of silence passed.

“How much is left?”

“It’ll be soon.”

“aha? “I’ve never been down this road before.”

Xiliang scratched his head.

“It’s about time.”

“hmm?”

“I called someone earlier with a telephonic tone.”

Even with magic techniques that are far from delicate, it is possible to perform a thousand-ri telephonic technique. Although the efficiency is extreme.

Jin Guanyong’s eyebrows twitched.

“Who did you call?”

“There is one human who doesn’t like us fighting. “I wondered if I could reach it because the distance was so far away, but I think I managed to reach it.”

“what?”

It was then.

‘…!’

I felt a strong presence approaching from the west at high speed.

He is not a master who has reached the highest level. However, there was someone coming here who even Jin Gwan-yong, who was said to be the best of the Protestant Church in terms of status and martial arts, could not easily touch.

Jin Guanyong’s cheeks trembled slightly.

Xu Liang smiled.

“Honestly, I also want to join Jamiru. “I wonder what preparations you have made to beat me.”

“….”

“But I also have a family of my own. I think you should enjoy risk to the extent possible. “If I had Dongpil, I would have tried it, but he’s busy right now.”

Sabak.

A middle-aged man appeared in front of the two.

“It’s a sphere, right? “Say hello to each other.”

The man, Gogu, looked at Jin Guanyong with transparent eyes.

“Grand Duke.”

“…Head of Criminal Law.”

Xiliang said to Gogu.

“This guy asked to go to Jamiru for a cup of tea. “Do you want to go with me?”

“….”

“I take it you agreed.”

Xi Liang looked at Jin Guan Yong.

Jin Guan Yong was expressionless, but Xu Liang could read the embarrassment on his face.

“Since I sang Hyeongbeopdangju, I would like to sing Hwanheewonju as well. I have a close relationship with that gentleman. I received a lot of this and that, so I thought I should give it a treat. Jamiru is fine.”

“….”

“Shall we go?”

Jin Gwan-yong’s face suddenly became somber as he looked at Gogu.

“It’s been a while.”

“I guess so.”

“I don’t think it’s befitting of the leader of the Criminal Law Party, which is said to be the most neutral organization along with Hwanheewon, to rush at the call of the third.”

It was a remark that stimulated pride. But Gogu’s expression did not change at all.

“I think it is an overly narrow-minded view to think that neutrality has been damaged by having a cup of tea.”

I gave in return and received in words. Jin Guanyong shook his head.

“Wouldn’t it depend on who asks to drink?”

“Don’t worry. “Because I don’t really like the Three Dukes.”

Xu Liang grumbled.

“You’re doing too much. “It hurts.”

Jin Guanyong’s eyes narrowed.

“Did you personally come to Ye after receiving a call from someone you didn’t like very much?”

“It is not a virtue of a person in power to link private friendships with public affairs.”

Seoliang was inwardly surprised by Gogu’s continued aggressive remarks. Although he was as hard as an iron rod, I didn’t think he was the kind of person who would say something like that out loud.

‘There’s something I don’t know.’

Seo-ryang smiled strangely.

‘I don’t know what it was, but calling the head of the criminal code was a good choice.’

Jin Gwan-yong, who was staring at Gogu, turned his gaze to Seo-ryang.

“You look like a ghost.”

“I’m a bit sensitive.”

“We’ll have tea later.”

“I’ll invite you soon.”

“I’m looking forward to it.”

That was the end. Jin Guanyong turned around and disappeared from the sight of the two people.

Although it was somewhat sudden, Xu Liang understood Jin Guan Yong. Even if you don’t know what kind of hand it is, it’s foolish to bet on it when you know that the hand is a threat.

Rather, it is more difficult to give up so cleanly. As expected, he was not an easy opponent.

Xu Liang sighed.

“It’s very sweet and bloody from the beginning.”

He looked at Gogu.

“If it’s like this, are you going to have a meal?”

“Three Confucius.”

“hmm?”

“Be careful.”

Gogu was still looking at the spot where Jin Gwan-yong had disappeared.

“He is a dragon. But it’s a demon-possessed dragon. “He is better than anyone else, but he will use any means to achieve his goal.”

“They’re all similar.”

“exactly. In that sense, the two of you are similar. But in terms of viciousness, the Three Dukes cannot be a match for the Grand Duke.”

“why?”

“Because he is a true devil who lacks even the slightest morals.”

That’s an interesting assessment.

Gogu turned around.

“I’ll have tea later. Please take a look.”
