Chronicles of the Demon Faction

Episode 403 Casting a new shadow (3)

“Are you in?”

“exactly.”

A ray of worry appeared on So Yeon-sim’s face as she looked at the Demon God Palace from afar.

“I wish I could come sooner…”

Now, in the main hall of the Demon God Palace, there were the Magons of the Senate, the head of the military department, Ho Yo-seong,

and the Grand Commander of the Heavenly Demon.

Surprisingly, Mudam, the head of the defense court, was not there.

Even though he is a person who must attend a leadership meeting, especially if it is the first time for a new leader, he did not show up in Daejeon.

“Do you know where the great guardian is?”

“Not even this person knows that.”

The man who sighed and shook his head was a middle-aged man with a strong physique. It was Cheolmoojeong, the master of the kidney department who rarely shows himself.

If the Nine Great Demons symbolized the power of Shinism, he was the one who actually ruled the Hundred and Eight Demon Lords, the best masters that could be used in Shinism.

At the same time, he was also a member of the Hundred and Eight Demon Commanders and the strongest Demon Commander.

He is the man with the greatest potential to become the next senator, and he was a man who worked hard day and night to reach the level of a mazon after ascending to the extreme level two years ago.

That person also came to the front of the Demon God Palace. It shouldn’t have happened if Mudam didn’t come.

“Daehobeop is a loyalist among loyalists. “There’s probably a reason.”

“This person thinks so too. In fact, we are all of us, but no one was as shocked as Daehobeop. “Because you served the leader most closely.”

A look of sadness appeared on Cheolmoojeong’s face.

Although they did not have a close personal relationship, he was also a person who respected Daehobeop martial arts warrior’s loyalty and resolute martial arts.

When I heard that the leader of the Jeondae Church had passed away, I also felt the sorrow of the sky falling, and I wondered how terrible it would be for Mudam.

So Yeon-sim glanced at Cheol Moo-jeong.

“How are you feeling, my lord?”

“What do you mean?”

“Would you like to help the new leader?”

Cheolmoojeong said firmly.

“He is someone who was highly praised by the previous religious leader. “You won’t need this man’s help.”

“I mean…”

“I have no intention of helping you, leader. “I just have the determination to follow the leader’s orders.”

So Yeon-sim looked at Cheol Moo-jeong again.

He was a man as heartless as his name. He didn’t have much interest in those around him, and of course he didn’t talk much.

‘He was truly a mine.”

Hwanheewon has personal information about the students on campus. However, even in that information section, there was very little information about Cheolmujeong.

Now I understand. Cheolmoojeong was a person who would bury his bones in Protestantism. My head was filled with only those thoughts and martial arts, so it seemed like I had no time to spare for anything else.

So Yeon-sim envied such iron heart. I envied the firmness of walking down the path he had chosen and the simple-mindedness of not caring even when people criticized him for being stubborn.

“I learn a lot from you, my father.”

“Say everything.”

She turned her eyes back to the Demon God’s Palace.

Her eyes were looking at the Demon God’s Palace, but her head was filled with sorrow.

‘What will happen?’

It is said that the world is full of confusion, but it was the same in the Protestant Church.

Will the new leader, Seoliang, be able to resolve the situation stained by this chaos and solidify his position as the leader?

Kugu Palace!

The gate of Daejeon has opened.

Through the open door A man with a sturdy physique came in.

A look of puzzlement appeared on the faces of those who were gathered in great tension.

‘What is it?’

The energy wave that spread from outside Daejeon a little while ago was truly shocking enough to collapse the entire Demon God Palace.

However, as soon as the door was opened, the strong magical energy disappeared as if washed away

. It was as if the magic energy had not been opened in the first place. When you capture something, traces of demon energy are bound to be left in the air, but there were no traces left.

It’s strange. Not even one or two, but all of them felt it, but not even a trace of it could be found.

That fact strangely oppressed the hearts of the leaders gathered here. There was nothing to be particularly afraid of, but it gave me an uneasy feeling that should not be ignored.

“It looks like they were having a pretty heated discussion.”

Xu Liang smiled.

Hu Yaocheng’s eyes deepened as he looked at him like that.

‘You have changed.’

Because I was monitoring the situation in the central plains, I did not see him when Seoryang re-entered the church with the Cheonma Army and the Gwangma Jinma. So, in reality, it was the first time we had seen him for several months.

‘He has grown bigger.’

Height, physique,

and presence were even bigger than when he left the church a few months ago.

He was wearing comfortable military uniform without a long gun, let alone a long gun. His long hair was not tied back, and he was not carrying any weapon.

Still, he was tall.

He had a large and somehow heavy presence. The two eyes were smiling, but a dignity that could not be ignored was leaking out.

Ho Yo-seong knelt down on the spot.

“I meet the leader of the Reigning Saint Heavenly Demon Immortal Divine Cult, Ho Yo-seong.”

It was a calm yet powerful voice.

Seo-ryang smiled and looked at him.

“It’s been a long time. “How have you been?”

“Yes, leader.”

“I think I’ve lost a bit more weight than before. If you can’t reduce the intensity of your work, at least eat well.”

Ho Yo-seong said,

“I will keep this in mind, Master.”

He took his eyes off Ho Yo-seong and looked around.

Eom Tae-gyeong, the Great Commander of the Heavenly Demon, and the six mazons were kneeling. However, the Senator Gwangmazon and the Pyeongyeokmazon Yinyama were only bending.

Seo-ryang watched them. I didn’t blame him.

He walked hurriedly.

He crossed the center of Daejeon at a pace that wasn’t too hasty, but wasn’t slow either

. His hair swaying in the light wind looked like the hem

of a dragon robe. Although he was a young man, not yet 30 years old, he had the presence here. He was bigger than anyone else.

He walked in silence and stood in front of the Taesa.

Seolyang’s eyes deepened as he looked down at the Taesa.

‘It’s huge.’

This is the seat where Lee Cheon-sang sat. And it was the seat where past religious leaders sat.

The seat is right in front of him.

Seo-ryang stroked the Taesa’s robe. Even though it was not silk, it felt very good to the touch.

It was then.

“Sir.”

Xu Liang looked back.

Before he knew it, the Lord Gwangma was looking at him with his bent back straightened.

“This old man’s greeting was late. I’m so glad you entered the school safely.”

Xu Liang nodded,

“Thank you.”

He had never seen Gwangmazon before. However, there was no awkwardness in dealing with him.

Gwangmazon opened his mouth.

“I was very worried that he might have been harmed by the recklessness of the Jungwon bastards. The reason he did not suffer much harm is because of the ancestors’ “This is Hongbok.”

Hu Yaocheng’s eyes deepened.

Lord Guangma’s words were truly strange.

It was strange because they were said at the moment when Xu Liang was about to sit down in the royal palace, and it was uncomfortable because he felt as if it was wrong for him to return to life alone.

Xu Liang shook his head. “

It wasn’t fun, but there was a harvest. “It was a good trip to Jungwon.”

The faces of the leaders hardened.

Gwangmazon’s words were strange, but Seoliang’s words were without hesitation.

The head of the former sect died in Jungwon. Nevertheless, it is said to be a good move to Jungwon. Depending on how you interpret it, it could have been a dangerous statement.

Gwangmazon, who was quietly looking up at Seoliang, lowered his head again.

“If you look at the big picture, it could be so. However…”

“The former leader sacrificed his life to open the door to the world of magic that was only half open.”

“……?!”

“The greatest Heavenly Demon in the history of Protestantism. It was an end worthy of someone who holds the title of the greatest of all time and in reality.”

The atmosphere in Daejeon suddenly became cold. It was such a sensitive and dangerous story that even the face of the Gwangmazon, whose expression had not changed, suddenly hardened. The

Yinyamazon opened his mouth.

“Master Xiao! Those words just now…. ..!”

“His life was full of a fierce sense of purpose that even destroyed his own life, and a noble greatness in which he loved Shingyo.

He wanted the world of magic and at the same time loved Shingyo. Although he gave so much for Shingyo, it is a pity that he has nothing more to give. He did it.”

Xiliang’s eyes deepened.

“Out of that sorrow, he sacrificed his life to give us the land of Jungwon.”

“……..”

“We should not mourn that noble sacrifice. Our sorrow is His sorrow and our frustration is His frustration.

Even after he attained the enlightenment that would allow him to ascend to heaven, he ruled over the Protestant religion for over ten years, waiting for the right time, and finally built his own tomb and entered it.”

“……”

“He went away happy. He wanted us to use his death to go to wider and higher places, and he was sure that would happen.”

Xiliang’s magical eye spewed fire.

“That’s why I will even take advantage of my teacher’s death. Because it is something that brings glory to Him.”

“…..”

“So there is no need to be angry at Grand Commander Cheonma. “Because Grand Commander Cheonma just did as he commanded, as always.”

Even though the voice was not very uplifting, everyone could not help but hold their breath.

Seoryang, who was looking down at the audience with a frighteningly serious face, smiled for a moment.

“Senate.”

“Yes, Master Xiao.”

Until the end, he referred to Xiliang as Xiaojiaoju. Seoliang didn’t react much to his title.

“Take the mazons and return to the Senate.”

“But Master Xiao.”

“No one is guilty here. Even if there is a crime, it is only within the jurisdiction of the Criminal Justice Department and not something you can discuss together.”

When Gwangmazon opened his mouth again, Seoliang continued speaking.

“I will be stopping by the Senate in five days.”

“yes?”

“Wait there until then.”

“I beg your Majesty, but I cannot do that.”

“You can’t do that?”

“We haven’t even been able to pay the religious leader’s funeral yet. It

is more appropriate than ever to comfort the religious leader’s soul with a grand funeral, so how can we return to our home with a heavy butt?”

“No bites.”

Everyone looked at Xu Liang in surprise.

Xu Liang shook his head.

“The place where he passed away is far away in the northern part of the central plains. “That place is his tomb.”

“one…..!”

“When I go out to the central plains again and establish order in the martial arts world, that’s when I will hold the meeting. Until then, we are not qualified to hold the funeral for the person who went to heaven.”

“…….”

“Go back.”

Gwangmazon, who was looking at Seoryang quietly, lowered his head.

“We understand what Master Xiao means. We don’t think so, but we will leave for now.”

“That’s not true.”

“yes?”

“You will be alone, not us.”

“……”

“See you in five days.”

In the end, the Magons had no choice but to follow the Gwangmazon and leave the Demon God’s Palace.

Seoriang sat on the stairs with a chuckle. Even though the Great Master was in front of him, he did not sit there.

“It was bad from the beginning.”

“You were amazing.”

“huh?”

Hu Yaocheng lowered his head.

“I couldn’t help but be impressed by the leader’s wit. They, especially the Gwangmazon, are people who cannot understand their true feelings. It is truly amazing that you send him away with just a few words.”

Xu Liang tilted his head.

“Is this something so great that it deserves praise? Anyone can do it.”

Ho Yo-seong almost burst out laughing without even realizing it.

Dogs barking loudly at the Nine Great Mazon of the world? If this wasn’t the Demon God Palace’s battle, I would have burst into laughter.

“You are truly worthy of a religious leader.”

Xu Liang laughed.

“You call me cult leader.”

“Of course.”

“Do you acknowledge that I am qualified to be the leader of the cult?”

“Of course.”

“good. “Get up.”

Ho Yaoseong stood up from his seat.

Before he knew it, Seoryang came to his side.

“You have a place to go with me, Grand Commander.”
