Chronicles of the Demon Faction

Episode 549 Yeomra Demon God (5)

“Is this the beginning?”

“That’s right.”

“Whoa.”

Zhou Tianyang took a long breath.

“This makes me nervous.”

A fight to take control of the world.

It was the beginning of a huge war that could end in a few months or last for years.

Damsayoung bowed her head.

“Don’t worry too much. We will definitely win.”

“Haha, I think so too.”

I’m trying my best to smile brightly, but the tension doesn’t go away.

Zhou Tianyang committed an immoral act. If I were to lose this war, not only would I die at the hands of my father, but my evil deed would be engraved in history.

In the end, history belongs to the winners. Regardless of whether one commits immorality or not, if one becomes the winner, he will be recorded as anti-Jeong (反正), and if the loser, he will be shamed for all ages as a traitor.

Zhou Tianyang wanted his name to remain in the minds of his descendants as an emperor, but he did not want to be remembered as a traitor who committed adultery.

“Anyway…”

Zhou Chenyang’s eyes lit up.

“Is the whereabouts of the Oksae still unknown?”

The royal seal will be over there.

Dam Sa-yeong struggled to swallow the words that rose up in her throat. In fact, he wasn’t even sure yet.

However, if we were to discuss the possibility, it is highly likely that the royal seal has already fallen into the hands of these people. I had to think like that and move.

“That’s right. Even now, searchers in the shadows are searching in every way, so please don’t try to plant too much.”

“Hmm. Who would have thought that a single royal seal would cause so much trouble.”

Dam Sa-young’s eyebrows twitched.

‘what?’

There was something strange about Zhou Tianyang’s voice.

Dam Siyoung now knew everything about Zhou Tianyang. I was able to guess his feelings just by the slightest change in his voice.

From what Damsayoung saw, Zhou Cheonyang was not that impatient.

‘What are you thinking?’

Zhou Chenyang stroked his short beard.

“It’s okay to let the searchers keep looking for the seal. It’s okay…”

“Yes?”

Zhou Chenyang chuckled.

“If you think about it, isn’t it really absurd?”

“What are you talking about?…”

“If they win, even if just by chance, they will take control of the world. However, I have no choice but to keep my father alive in the imperial palace even if it is because I am afraid of the world’s gaze.”

“Of course I will.”

“If we win, of course the imperial palace will welcome a new emperor. From then on, the Emperor and the Dam clan will be remembered as great figures for thousands of years.”

“….”

“Isn’t it strange?”

“which…?”

“The emperor is in a position to be above all people and can do anything. Changing the name of the country and moving the capital are entirely at the discretion of the emperor.”

Zhou Tianyang smiled coldly.

“Then wouldn’t it be possible to make a new royal seal?”

Damsayoung was truly surprised.

“Are you really planning on making a new royal seal?”

“Haha, what talent do I have to make a royal seal? “It has to be made by a famous craftsman.”

That’s what it means after all.

Dam Sa-young’s voice lowered.

“Your Majesty the Crown Prince, I wish to inform you, but it is impossible.”

Zhou Tianyang’s eyes became sharp.

“Impossible?”

Is this impossible for a being like the sky? Isn’t the choice of words truly profane?

However, Dam Sa-young had no intention of backing down in this regard. No, I shouldn’t have backed down.

“The royal seal is a symbol of absolute power that reveals the identity of the imperial palace. Even if the walls of the imperial palace crumble due to weathering, the royal seal must remain intact. “This is because the royal seal is more than a mere symbol but a key element that supports the nation.”

“Wouldn’t it be enough to create a new core element?”

“Even if a new one is created, that too is something that needs to be done in the future.”

Dam Sa-young’s face hardened. It was an expression he had never shown before in front of Zhou Tianyang.

“If it were something that could be made new, we would have suggested making a new one right away. However, the reason we did not do so is because of the value of the royal seal, which has been passed down for hundreds of years.”

“hmm.”

“History has value in itself. “It goes without saying that the royal seal is a symbol of the emperor.”

Damsayoung bowed her head again.

“Even if you feel frustrated, please be patient just a little longer. “I will do my best to find the royal seal and place it in your arms.”

Zhou Cheonyang, who was looking down at Damsayoung, smiled.

“I’m sorry. “I was so nervous that I talked nonsense for a while.”

“majesty.”

“How can I not know your loyalty? “I said this out of frustration, so don’t worry too much about it.”

“I can only accept it because you understand my loyalty.”

Zhou Tianyang had a knack for surprising people like this every now and then. Unfortunately, most of the surprises were negative.

“If that’s the case.”

“yes?”

What else are you planning to say?

Dam Sa-young’s eyes became cold. If you start talking nonsense again, I wasn’t going to tolerate it this time.

Joo Cheon-yang tilted his head and said, as if he was aware of Dam Sa-young’s feelings.

“In that case, I think it would be better for the royal seal to disappear.”

“yes? What do you mean?”

“Didn’t you say that neither we nor we over there found the royal seal? “Then, rather than finding out the whereabouts of the royal seal and seizing it preemptively, how about completely destroying the royal seal itself?”

“…?!”

Surprise appeared on Dam Sa-young’s face.

‘Removing the royal seal?’

Even if you decide to do that, you have to know where it is before you can get rid of it or not.

However, Dam Sa-young felt a strange attraction to Joo Cheon-yang’s words.

‘Get rid of the royal seal itself… Is that possible?’

Joo Cheonyang knew that if troops were dispatched to look for the royal seal on the Magyo side, Damsayoung would focus on occupying the location and taking it in advance.

However, Dam Sa-yeong thought that the demonic religion had already obtained the royal seal.

‘It’s impossible. It might be better if the royal seal is still hidden somewhere in the central plains. No, then there is no need to get rid of it. ‘Whoever gets it first gets there with a cause.’

But what if the Demonic Cult holds the royal seal?

And what if the royal seal could be destroyed without even mice or birds noticing?

‘For both sides, the justification is lost. All that remains is who is stronger in the end and who will be the winner.’

Damsayoung bowed her head.

“We will post a situation report once a half-day as soon as a situation worth noting arises. “I am afraid that my sacred heart may be shaken by unnecessary anxiety, so please rest in peace.”

Zhou Chenyang was somewhat embarrassed.

“I understand. her! I’m sure I’m nervous too. “You just said a lot of things that don’t work today.”

Damsayoung smiled inwardly.

I wasn’t just talking nonsense. Fortunately.

“Whoa.”

Dan Lihu took a deep breath.

“How did you get here?”

Dense mountainous terrain came into view in the distance.

That wasn’t all. The weather was somehow humid, and the sky was dark even though it was broad daylight. It seemed like it was going to rain at any moment.

The sky is dark, the air is humid, and all you can see are forests and mountains, so marching is bound to be difficult.

However, Danlihu liked the weather of this terrain.

‘It will not be visible.’

At this level, it is almost like digging through the jungle and marching.

Even if your body is tired, there is a high probability that you will not be caught in the enemy’s field of vision. That alone was enough to make it worth overcoming the rough terrain.

The five thousand emperors were also all trained in martial arts. It may not be considered excellent, but it will not be a problem to overcome this level of rough terrain.

In this way, the troops led by Dan Lihu entered Guizhou Province.

Guizhou Province was a region quite far from the mainland of Central Plains. It is adjacent to Sichuan Province to the north, Yunnan Province to the west, Guangxi Province to the south, and Hunan Province to the east.

Although it was inland, the altitude was high and the environment was harsh. It looked like a primeval jungle untouched by human feet.

Dan Lihu shouted.

“From now on, we will head south in earnest! Increase your speed, but don’t overdo it!”

Even if you are a seasoned expert, if you wander around the jungle for a long time, you will have physical problems.

I couldn’t fight with all my strength gone. Even if it meant slowing down, adequate rest was necessary to be able to exert sufficient strength during combat.

In this way, the troops led by Dan Lihu slowly moved south over five days.

Because it is so humid, food management is difficult. However, some masters, including Dan Lihu, were skilled in the Celestial Dragon Art.

Flash!

A mysterious technique that drives away moisture and even blocks the approach of wild beasts and poisonous insects.

This is the horror of magic. This is because, considering that they are in a similar state, they can use techniques that would be impossible for someone who has learned martial arts.

Is that why? Over 5,000 troops were able to come down through the center of Guiju Castle in much more comfortable conditions than expected.

“stop!”

Dan Lihu shouted.

“Today we will rest here for the night! “Get some rest!”

I’m going to take a full night’s rest.

Although they should have been happy, the five emperors looked calm and dispersed to their respective places to rest. They even set up sentries among themselves.

They were truly elite soldiers.

He seemed extremely familiar with battle even without any special orders. It felt like I had been trained like that my whole life.

A fighting spirit well-honed so as not to be indifferent.

In a way, that quiet fighting spirit was like the martial arts of all the world.

‘It would be okay for the martial arts people to learn something like that.’

In martial arts, the power of each individual is so strong that it is not easy to unite.

If the martial arts people fight together like the imperial army, they will be able to produce a force that is truly beyond imagination.

Of course that was impossible. Because the Murim people never try to unite.

‘Except for one place.’

Dan Lihu’s eyes looked towards the southeast.

‘Among the martial arts groups, the Demonic Church is the most tightly knit.’

Since it is a religious group that worships God, it is natural.

It was also different from Shaolin or shamans who followed the teachings of Taoist Buddha. To them, the demon god is the only god and the creator god who presides over the cycle of eons. They are willing to sacrifice even their souls to protect God.

‘I’m jealous.’

If the Heavenly Dragon Palace had had special faith in its lord, things like this wouldn’t have happened now.

‘But it’s okay. If we win this war, the world will be in our hands. If that happens…’

The Heavenly Dragon Palace, like that Demonic Cult, will be worshiped by the palace people. I will end up making it like that.

“Where are you going, Lord?”

Dan Lihu said calmly.

“To meet the leader of our army.”

“yes?”

“There are beings who will join us in raiding the Demonic Cult. “Just keep that in mind.”

Pop!

Dan Lihu, who was alone, crossed the jungle in an instant.

After moving south for more than two hundred miles, he finally saw a group of people standing in a clearing on a cliff in the distance.

Dan Lihu’s eyes flashed.

Sasak!

I thought it was moving, but before I knew it, I was on top of a cliff.

It was truly a terrifying new law. As a result of his hard work, he showed that his new method was much more advanced than when he was chased by Seoryang in the past.

The other person also opened his eyes wide, as if he was surprised by Dan Lihu’s divine law.

“It’s my first time meeting you. “My name is Emperor Dan Lihu’s second minister.”

“nice to meet.”

A middle-aged man spoke in a stern voice.

“I am Geukrang (克狼), the master of Blood Lang and the master of the Beast Palace.”
