Chapter 599

Episode 599. End of Washin Counseling (5)“Commander General! I received a call from the religious leader!”

“Give me the letter.”

Ho Yo-seong’s eyes deepened as he opened the letter.

“…also.”

He recalled his past conversation with Seo-ryang.

– He will definitely fight back. I’m not the type of person to leave like this.

– I think so too.

– But I will avoid direct competition.

– We will avoid direct competition as well as assassination attempts or inducing confusion. Because you know that you can’t even buy time with something like that.

– So how will it attack?

– ….

– You seem to be confused as expected.

– Honestly, yes. There is nothing left for Dam Sa-young. Although the main forces are still in good shape, they are worse than nothing unless they become an opponent in a power struggle. Of course, even with that many troops, you will want to protect them carefully.

– All-out war, assassination, inducing chaos, and even funds are no match for us. In other words, it has no real means of harming us.

– The declaration of defeat was especially fatal. It’s a matter of fraud. Even if an all-out war is assumed, the troops under Dam Sa-young will not be able to demonstrate even half of their capabilities.

– Hmm.

– Then there is only one way left.

– What is that?

– This is me.

-…?

– Dam Sa-young herself has no choice but to step forward.

– Even if you bring all of your troops, you will be the only one going into a game where you will be no match?

– yes.

– …Right.

– If neither power nor funds work, all that is left for Dam Sa-young is personal force and martial arts.

– okay. There are no rumors that the Lord of Heavenly Dragon has died yet, so it would be correct to assume that they are together in some way.

– That’s right. If an individual’s military power is no match for an all-out war, the only thing left that can deal a fatal blow to this side is the art of magic. The problem is the vastness of the study of the art of art.

– hmm.

– Even Bigungju possessed techniques that were beyond imagination. It is not because the other person was a religious leader and she was careless, but if she had been wiser and more ambitious, she would have had the power to plan the world.

– I think so too.

– Just looking at the Heavenly Dragon Technique, it is true. The Iron Blood Fortress, which had been impregnable until the leader stepped forward, almost collapsed overnight. It wasn’t even tens of thousands of troops pushing in. The Iron Blood Fortress almost collapsed due to the Sulbeopjin (術法陣) alone.

– yes.

– I’m not sure, but Dam Sa-young has a number of moves that are comparable to or better than that. That’s probably why he boldly declared defeat.

– …I get it.

– yes?

– I don’t know exactly, but I can roughly guess how he will try to attack us.

– Are you sure?

– okay.

– What kind of…?

– In the past, when I reached my current level through dancing with Seongju Song, there was something my master told me.

-…?!

– He told me to stop Damsayoung before she becomes one with the world. I had a really hard time trying to figure out what it meant and what it was exactly about. Searᴄh the novёlF~ire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

– Did you realize it?

– Just a guess. But I can’t think of any other way.

After that, Xiliang presented several plans for Damsayeong’s attack method.

And now I received a call telling me to prepare for one of the many plans I mentioned back then.

‘Dam Sa-young.’

Hu Yaosheng stuck out his tongue.

‘Have we really crossed the line before the bizarreness of the technique?’

Dam Sa-yeong was a person who was not limited by morality or ethics.

But that and this were completely different issues. This is because this is not a question of good and evil, but a question that touches on the fundamental fear that we naturally have as humans.

Hu Yaosheng suddenly felt eerie.

Dam Sa-young’s mind-reading efforts to achieve her goal even at the cost of abandoning her humanity filled me with fear.

‘But…’

He also knew.

This move is the best move that Dam Sa-young has. If this move doesn’t work, that’s when he will face true defeat.

And Ho Yo-seong had no doubt that Dam Sa-yeong would be defeated.

“Contact the Gangseo Merchant Association. Ask the nearby civilians to open the granary once more. I need to slowly heat up the pot.”

“All right.”

Hu Yaosheng’s eyes sparkled.

“Come and see sometime.”

* * *

Whisper.

Cheongyeongsae, who was newly appointed to the position of Amipa Jangmunsae, collapsed.

Xiliang looked around.

Grumbling.

A fire was sweeping through all parts of Amipa, the sacred place of Buddha.

The Ami faction was no different from the Cheongseong faction. The old temples and buildings were all new and shining brightly.

And all of that was destroyed at the hands of Seoliang.

“Cough! This ruthless man!”

Sangyeongsae, who was lying bleeding, cried out in bloody tears.

“You will be cursed! How dare you, the leader of the Demonic Cult, destroy the Amipa with a thousand years of history…!”

“It has been a thousand years of history, but there has been no progress but only regression. Stagnant water is bound to rot, but you guys have gone too far.”

“This guy!”

“You say you can become Buddha just by shaving your head? You are not qualified to serve Buddha.”

Sangyeongsae’s face turned red.

Seeing her get so angry even after receiving injuries that wouldn’t surprise her if she died right away, she wasn’t an ordinary, harsh person either.

“How dare… how dare!”

“and.”

Quack!

The neck of the landslide was broken.

Xi Liang said coldly.

“I haven’t lived a life so wrong that I’ve been verbally abused by lowly ascetics who are addicted to worldly desires.”

Kugugoogung!

The temple, engulfed in flames, collapsed with a loud noise. In this way, even Amipah walked the path to extinction.

Xiliang was particularly merciless in this attack.

Cheongseong is also Cheongseong, but Ami crossed the line. Not only did they capture and imprison all those who cried out for righteousness and mercy, they also subjected them to all kinds of torture to prevent them from living or dying.

They didn’t do anything wrong, and it was even the adults and executioners of the sect. They brought their parents and sisters to that point.

Furthermore, they even kidnapped fair-faced boys from the village below and used them as sex toys.

It was truly the height of corruption.

Quang!

Seo-ryang, who destroyed all the buildings with the Man-Ap Gold Horse, carried out a powerful campaign.

Paaaaang!

Now the new law has gained momentum.

It was a supreme spiritual art that used empty objects. It was no exaggeration to say that he was now truly capable of land flight.

Xi Liang quickly crossed the mountain range and arrived at the place where the group was.

Sarah.

Even though I flew through the air with a loud bang, my landing was as light as a feather.

“Thank you for your hard work, leader.”

“ok.”

“Are you hurt anywhere?”

Xu Liang chuckled.

“What can you do with idiots like that? The look in their eyes is even harsher than Cheongseong’s.”

Ma Dong-pil lowered his head.

“Congratulations. This concludes the cleanup of Sichuan Province.”

“Okay. Now, let’s head to Shaanxi.”

“Oh, that’s not the case, I received a call from Shaanxi. It is a letter sent directly by Ambassador Hyesim.”

Seo-ryang’s eyes widened.

“already?”

“yes.”

Ma Dong-pil handed a letter to Seo-ryang.

Seo-ryang quickly read the letter and shook his head.

“It looks like they decided to push ahead. Shaolin is indeed Shaolin.”

Surprisingly, the strongest force of Shaolin, led by Hye-sim, entered Shaanxi at once, burned the Jongnam faction, and even blew away the volcano faction.

It was unclear whether he was as harsh as Seoryang. However, considering the fact that both factions were put to rest, at least the leadership and major troops must have been eliminated.

“Somehow, the timing was just right. If this happens, I’ll have to change my plan.”

“What do you plan to do?”

Xu Liang, who was deep in thought, looked at Zhou Qing.

Zhou Cheng narrowed his eyes.

“Why are you looking at me like that?”

“Hey Emperor.”

“…?”

“Wasn’t the trip away quite long? Even if it’s not right away, I’d like to go back to my hometown after setting foot on it.”

Zhou Qing’s eyes wavered.

“You sure?”

“Okay. I’m thinking of going to Hebei.”

Hebei.

There is Beijing in Hebei, and in Beijing there is the Imperial Palace.

“Is there really a need to head there now?”

“The reason I didn’t refuse when you said you would join me is because you, as well as my brothers, needed to see the world. A ruler should be closer to the earth than to the sky. Only then can politics become closer to people.”

“….”

“Go to Hebei. As you go, look at the faces of the people who will be distorted by your politics in the future, filled with joy. I want you to feel what they really want and what you should do for them.”

“Hehehe.”

Zhu Qing, who was bursting out laughing, quickly nodded.

“I don’t want to be taught that kind of lesson from you, but it’s not wrong.”

“I always say the right thing.”

“Good. Let’s go. Sometimes I miss the air of Hebei, too.”

So the group’s next destination was decided. The carriage quickly passed Sichuan Province and headed toward Hebei.

In any case, in order to go to Hebei, I had to stop by Shaanxi. Seo-ryang sent a letter to Hye-sim asking her to meet him in Shaanxi.

Another ten days passed.

“It’s been a while.”

Hyesim bowed her head.

“You’ve worked hard so far.”

“You.”

Seoliang looked behind Hyesim. For a moment his eyes widened.

“…It’s amazing.”

As many as two hundred monks were lined up behind Hyesim.

‘Hundred and Eight Arhats (百八羅漢).’

Yes. The group of two hundred monks included the legendary Hundred Eight Arhats of Shaolin, monks from the Eight Great Lakes, as well as elders of the time and veterans of previous generations.

It was an incredible force. Even though there was no particular formation, I felt a wave of energy shaking the heavens and the earth.

‘If it were a head-to-head match, it would be difficult to argue with the Cheonma Ilgun.’

The four units of the Heavenly Demon Army could be said to be the strongest force of the Heavenly Demon Church.

One unit was filled with a thousand men, and each unit had the strength of a great gate faction at the level of the old faction and one party.

Among them, the Cheonma Army was the strongest among the Cheonma Army.

Hyesim and Shaolin used their full power to sweep away the Jongnam faction and the Hwasan faction.

“Have you been storing up this much power? Is this somehow unfair? You didn’t help me right away.”

“I’m sorry. I don’t have anything else to say.”

Xu Liang chuckled.

“It’s okay. You all had your own circumstances, too.”

“Thank you for understanding.”

“So where are you headed next?”

“I plan to head to Hubei.”

“If it’s Hubei, what about Zhuge?”

“exactly.”

“It would hurt my head. They are not a mountain sect. Just because they have a vicious mentality would not have weakened their martial arts skills. Moreover, the Zhuge family is a family that is more fearful of martial arts than martial arts.”

“That’s why I’m finally going now. Because I know how scary Jinbeop is. If there was a loss of power there, it could have been a problem in attacking Jongnam and Hwasan.”

“You all had an idea. Okay, I’ll make sure you know that.”

Curiosity appeared on Hye-sim’s face.

“Where are you planning to head, Lord?”

“Hebuk.”

“…!!”

Hye-sim’s face hardened at once.

“Are you hitting?”

I have no intention of touching Damsayoung. I don’t know if I can
