Episode 608 Another God (2)âOh? What about the death penalty?â
Ma Dong-pil said calmly.
âYouâre on a roll.â
âah?â
Chae Yeo-min glanced to the side.
I saw Seo-ryang sitting in the middle of a bush. I didnât really sit cross-legged, just sat comfortably with my eyes closed and my mouth licking.
Chae Yeo-min tilted her head.
âYour posture is unusualâ¦?â
âHe doesnât normally do that. No, he doesnât even need any luck in the first place.â
âI know that. I heard that there is no need to worry about fortune-telling when it is at the level of death penalty.â
âyes.â
At that time, Zhong Liying, who came with her, scratched his chin and said.
âThe energy of the whole body is flexible and free, so even without entering the cloud, the activity of the body and true energy is always at its peak⦠This is the first time I have seen this in real life.â
Chae Yeo-min looked at Seo-ryang with envious eyes.
âI want to be like that too.â
Ma Dong-pil and Jong Li-young had warm smiles on their faces.
Who among the martial arts people in the world can reach the level that Seo-ryang has achieved? It would be extremely difficult for even a world-renowned genius to reach a state where he has surpassed âsomethingâ like me.
It is not a matter of innate talent, but a matter of lived life.
That is why Seo-ryang is great and that is why Lee Cheon-sang is great.
âHey, Ma Howie.â
Zhong Liying cleared his throat.
âThe reason we came was no differentâ¦.â
Ma Dong-pil nodded.
âI heard thereâs going to be a fight soon.â
âThatâs right.â
Tension appeared on Zhong Liyingâs face.
âYou said the fight with Dam Sa-yeong is just around the corner. Are you okay with the death penalty?â
âAs you can see, youâre fine.â
Ma Dong-pil smiled and looked at Seo-ryang.
The sight of Seoryang exhaling naturally with a peaceful face was reminiscent of a seeker in meditation.
âThe sect leaderâs fight still has a lot to do, even if it is not Damsayeong. We must stabilize the world, build an empire, and cast the shadow of the new religion across the central plains.â
âOh yeah.â
âDamsajyeong is certainly a rare and difficult enemy, but it is also just one point that the religious leader must pass through.â
ââ¦.â
âI have seen you fail to climb the mountain many times, but I have also seen you try again and again and overcome it. And it will be the same this time too.â
Zhong Liyingâs face hardened.
âClimbing the mountain⦠It seems like a truly difficult task. Itâs a mountain that must be overcome.â
âThatâs just what Iâm saying. No matter what power Damsayoung has accumulated so far, thereâs no way the leader canât defeat him.â
At that time, I felt two people in the distance.
It was Namgoong Dan and Joo Seo-yoon.
âhmm.â
Namgungdanâs eyes sparkled as he looked at Seoliang.
âItâs more stable than ever.â
Joo Seo-yoon nodded.
âYes. It is very similar to the death penalty, but at the same time, it is completely different from the usual death penalty.â
âDo you feel that way?â
âYes. I probably wouldnât have felt it if I hadnât practiced the Seondojigeom (ä»éä¹å).â
âIt certainly is.â
Now, as if he had completely let go of the burden hanging over his heart, Namgoongdanâs eyes had also regained their past clarity.
âItâs a fight against the enemy. When the plot reaches its peak, itâs bound to take a turn⦠The meaning is a little different, but the Seo leader who has seen the end of the devil is also looking forward to the enlightenment of the Seondo.â
âAt the same time, it is a dissuasion and a return to prison. I think even Master would have thought differently about the death penalty.â
âHmm? The demon god of the world?â
âYes. He remained a demon until the end, but the executioner is walking down a path that includes demons.â
âPaedoraâ¦.â
âI once heard from Grandpa Jeoksong that the executioner would be different from the Heavenly Demon and any other religious leader up until now. He would take over the world as a king with the law.â
A smile appeared on Joo Seo-yoonâs face as she looked at Seo-ryang.
âOriginally, we were destined to die. Of course, we lost the battle for succession. But the death penalty did not kill us, but rather embraced us.â
ââ¦.â
âWhether it is by nature or by design, I believe that Sang-sang is a person who has nothing to do with taking control of the world.â
A person who not only spares the life of an opponent who lost in a succession battle, but also teaches martial arts and provides all kinds of support by telling them to grow together.
Itâs easy to say, but itâs hard to find people who actually do it, even in history. The reason is that we cannot help but worry that a rebellion will occur someday.
âBut that doesnât mean the leader is a good person.â
That makes it even more surprising.
The ambition to take control of the world, the sense of responsibility to ensure that oneâs own people are taken care of, the resolute nature to show no mercy to the enemy, yet the love for the people who know how to think of all the people in the world.
âItâs truly innate.â
Namgungdan, who was looking at Seoryang with a smile, tilted his head when a thought occurred to him.
âBut thatâs it.â
âyes.â
âThereâs still something I donât understand.â
âyes?â
âSeo Jyoju shook the economy of Gangbuk from the root in order to bring out Dam Sa-young. Is that all? He went to Beijing and brought the imperial army, and before that, he even organized the Seven Sects and the Three Families.â
âYes.â
âWatching from the sidelines, I realized that there was no need to bring you all along to the Central Plains like this. Of course, Your Majesty, it is right for you to come together, but you, who are actually executed, did not come and do anything, right?â
Joo Seo-yoon shook his head.
âI donât know the exact reason, but I can only infer that my brother-in-law has other thoughts.â
âHmm.â
Namgung Dan stroked his chin.
âI will let you experience the world⦠Of course, that in itself can be a reason. It will be like the calm before the storm for Seo, but at the same time, the martial arts world has never been as quiet as it is now.â
âYes.â
âI donât know why, but I hope you donât get hurt.â
Joo Seo-yoonâs smile deepened.
âIsnât it amazing? That masters of righteousness and evil, who have been at odds for over a thousand years, can have this conversation.â
âThe justice that each person believes in does not necessarily mean that personâs humanity. Although the rift created by history is too deep, if you just throw off your cumbersome outer garments, you can become friends with anyone.â
âIâm fortunate to have someone like you in my political sect.â
âThere are many more thoughtful and good people than me. They just havenât found the situation yet to prove their worth.â
There is no sign of any caution or prejudice in the voice that continues the conversation.
This is lowly. It is not important to be one, but to be able to acknowledge differences and share friendships.
It was the ultimate goal that human society should pursue and the shortcut to peace.
It was then.
Rumbling.
âhmm?â
Namgungdan looked up at the sky with puzzled eyes.
âWhy is the weather so bad all of a sudden?â
The sky wasnât very clear, but it wasnât particularly dark either.
Suddenly, dark clouds began to gather in the sky.
âItâs a drinking method.â
âHow to drink?â
âYes. Iâm not sure.â
Joo Seo-yoonâs eyes, looking up at the sky, instantly became tinged with tension.
âItâs not a natural phenomenon. It would be difficult to cause such a strange phenomenon without magical powers.â
âWhat kind of technique is this? And who would do something like thatâ¦?â
At that moment, a roar that shook the heavens and earth rang out.
Crumbling!
Along with the sound of thunder, red-hot lightning struck the entire dark cloud.
Ma Dong-pilâs eyes sparkled.
Chaaaaaa!
He quickly pulled out the black blood demon sword and swung it wide.
Phew.
The Gu Yumagi pulled out from the swordsman surrounded Chae Yeo-min, Jong Li-yeong Namgung Dan, and Joo Seo-yoon at once.
Joo Seo-yoon looked at Ma Dong-pil with embarrassed eyes.
âMa Howie?!â
âPlease gather in front of me.â
Ma Dong-pilâs face was full of tension.
âItâs an incredibly powerful force. I donât know how long I can hold out.â
âIs there no way to escape?â
âNothing. It looks like we were caught up in that strange technique without our knowledge.â
Pasasak.
Four people gathered in front of Ma Dong-pil.
Ugh! Wooooow!
The black blood demon sword trembled like crazy. Even though Ma Dong-pil had abundant magical energy, he seemed to feel overwhelmed.
Ma Dong-pil plunged the black blood demon sword into the ground.
Sigh! Grrrrrrrrrrrrr!
Blood-red flames rose from all directions, forming a circular shield. It was a technique that applied Guyumagongâs earthly heat fire wall.
at the same time.
Crumbling! Flash! Fuuuuuuu!
A shower of thunderbolts struck the ground and trees.
Pusssss.
The ground struck by lightning caved in and the trees split and burned.
It was a terrifying sight. Chae Yeo-min and Zhong Li-yingâs faces turned pale.
âRest assured.â
Ma Dong-pilâs eyes turned completely blood red. The endurance has been raised to the limit.
âThis is a jutsu and an illusion. Even those thunderbolts and dark clouds are all just illusions.â
âButâ¦â
âOf course, if you get hit by that lightning, youâll get a shock no different from being hit by a real lightning bolt.â
ââ¦!â
âIt will go away soon. Donât worry too much.â
âBut the death penalty!â
âYes. The leader will get rid of it.â
Pop. Pop.
A thick drop of sweat fell from Ma Dong-pilâs chin.
ââ¦Once the conversation is over.â
âhmm.â When Seoryang opened his closed eyes, his face was not much different from when he was concentrating on flying.
It was leisurely and empty. Lightning was falling everywhere, but he didnât seem surprised at all.
âThe greeting is quite grand.â
Xu Liang smiled and looked ahead.
âIsnât that right?â
Pussssss.
Before I knew it, a wisp of smoke appeared from where Seoryang was looking, and Damsayoung appeared.
Seo-ryangâs eyes sparkled.
âThatâs quite a bit. To be able to use the power you just gained so skillfully, does that mean youâre at a level even if itâs rotten?â
Dam Sa-young, who was looking at Seo-ryang with an expressionless face, soon smiled.
âHow have you been?â
It was like a superior speaking tone. Seará´h the NôvelÆire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
Xu Liang nodded.
âIâve been busy sorting out the world.â
âI heard so.â
âIs it because you gained new strength? Youâre a lot more relaxed than I thought. Your foundation has all disappeared.â
Damsayoung nodded.
âThatâs right. I was truly impressed. I never thought Iâd find someone in my life who could push me this far.â
âIâm a bit harsh to begin with. And itâs true, if you had been less greedy, things like this wouldnât have ended up like this.â
âInstead, you came to kill me. Directly.â
âHe is like that too.â
âIn the end, my fate had no choice but to turn out this way.â
Xu Liang chuckled.
âThatâs different. Fate is a word that doesnât suit you.â
âIs that so? Well, what do you think?â
Dam Sa-yeongâs relaxed face turned cold for a moment.
âIn the end, if you are also a part of the world, everything you have will be in my hands.â
ââ¦.â
âIf you think about it that way, you are definitely a gal. am. To be honest, I was impressed. I thought it was just a dog with sharp teeth, but it turned out to be a tiger the size of Mount Tai. I was throwing away a few pieces of rotten meat without even knowing it.â
âYou just have to admit it now.â
âThatâs right. Because I canât be the one who got hit by a dog.â
âSo now you want to kill the tiger you raised and take over the world?â
Dam Sa-yeong chuckled.
âYou canât even imagine. Where is the end of the power I gained and what am I aiming for?â
âHonestly, I had some guesses, but as you said, I didnât know the specifics.â
Seoryang grinned.
âBut I knew this moment would come.â
âWhat? â
âBecause of your proud personality, I guessed that you would show up and make a fuss about declaring war.â
ââ¦?!â
âAnd I had no doubt that you would tell me everything you wanted.â
Dam Sa-yeongâs face hardened.
Seo-ryang stroked her chin.
âYou will become one with the world⦠So, is that what you meant?â
