Chronicles of the Demon Faction

Episode 126 Even if you fall into a swamp, you can still breathe (5)

Be my person. A word that can truly be interpreted in many ways.

“…Suddenly?”

“okay.”

Wei Hongryun’s eyes narrowed.

“It’s not a very appropriate place to confess your love, is it?”

“….”

“It doesn’t seem like you’re joking with such a serious face.”

“It’s no joke.”

“It seems so.”

“So what is the answer?”

Wei Hongryun looked at Xu Liang blankly.

It was a very serious face. At least it didn’t seem like something he said lightly.

“I don’t know much about Confucius.”

“I guess so.”

“And Confucius, you don’t know much about me either.”

“That’s also true.”

“Are you saying you’re going to make someone you don’t even know very well into yours?”

“Like you said, there are a lot of things I don’t know about you. “But I know one thing.”

“What?”

“It’s worth using.”

It was a statement that could sound quite unpleasant. On the other hand, it was also something that was pleasant to hear. In the end, the feeling of receiving something like that varies depending on who says it.

Wei Honglian felt two emotions at the same time.

I felt bad because it felt like I was being judged, but at the same time, I felt good because that person was Seo-ryang. At least in relation to martial arts, it was because I knew how cold and serious Seo-ryang was.

That’s why Wei Hongryun thought of trying to have a conversation. If the person who said that wasn’t Seo-ryang, he would have said it wasn’t funny and left.

“Ever since I left school, I knew something was strange, but I didn’t want to dig deeper. “I just thought there must be a reason for the sword dance at Jeoksa Temple.”

“….”

“But now that you’re saying that to me, I really want to ask you. “Why have you changed so much?”

Xiliang’s eyes deepened.

He didn’t say that he hadn’t changed, that he just now knew what he really wanted.

“Yeah, you’re right.”

“I want to hear you…”

“If I wanted to make you mine, I should have at least shown you my sincerity.”

It’s different from the time of Madongpil.

I lived and died with Ma Dong-pil from Gojuk Forest. In fact, there were many times when I owed him my life.

Additionally, as time has passed, he has now become his personal escort. From his past relationship to his current position, Ma Dong-pil was his own person without even saying it.

However, Wei Hongryun’s case was different. My relationship with her couldn’t be considered light, but it couldn’t be considered deep either.

Moreover, she was the head of a combat unit. When one person moves, the entire lighthouse moves.

It was the reason why I wanted to get her, and it was also the reason why I had to be even more serious.

So Seo-ryang revealed his true feelings.

“I want to turn the world upside down.”

“…yes?”

“To be exact, I plan to attack Uicheon Maeng and Sanghyeolseong Fortress. “More aggressive than anyone else.”

Not only Wi Hongryeon but also Ma Dongpil was surprised. It was a word that was difficult to say in public or private settings.

“What day is today? “I hear a lot of bombshell remarks.”

“It’s nothing new, right? Since you are a demon of our school anyway, the Uicheon Alliance and the Iron Blood Fortress are nothing more than targets to attack.”

“That’s true, but you didn’t take such a heavy stance just to say that obvious thing.”

“Of course.”

Wei Honglian asked seriously.

“What is the reason?”

“Because I don’t like it.”

“…Is that simply the reason?”

“It’s simpler and more certain than any other reason.”

“….”

“I hate them.”

There is power in human words. When you speak seriously, it carries weight, but when you say it as a joke, it is as light as a feather.

Wei Hong-ryeon and Ma Dong-pil had never seen Seo-ryang speak with such weight.

“I just said hate. Until now, I thought of my hatred as nothing more than resentment to be endured or rusty dregs to be chewed and swallowed. But that wasn’t it.”

“….”

“That sorrow was like a painting. It was a famous painting that filled me with colors so gorgeous that I couldn’t even begin to marvel at it. “I must confess, I didn’t even know the name of the painting until now, so I didn’t know whether to admire it or put it away.”

Woooo!!

A reddish glow flashed past Seoryang’s eyes, and a shadow of anger as deep as an abyss was cast over them.

A feeling strong enough to overwhelm even Wei Hongryeon, the leader of the worst unit of the Protestant Church.

“I know now. That picture is not for viewing. “It is something I must tear, destroy, and burn with my own hands.”

“….”

“I assure you, you absolutely do not hate Meng Sheng as much as I do. I can’t do that. “Maybe he’s one of the many demons obsessed with inertial anger.”

“I…”

“Still, there is one reason why I want you.”

“….”

“You don’t care about who you are. “Whether it is Uicheonmaeng or Sanghyeolseong, even if the opponent is a Protestant, he is a person who will point his sword at you if you give him a reason.”

I couldn’t say that Wei Hongryun wasn’t that kind of person. I couldn’t pass it off as a joke.

This was because Seoryang also showed his sincerity.

“I’m not interested in succession battles. However, if Shingyo’s will is not directed towards those two places, I plan to rein in it by force and turn it around.”

“That’s…”

“Yes. “I don’t have the authority to do that.”

Seo-ryang’s dangerous eyes.

“Unless I become the next successor to the sect leader.”

“…!”

“I’ll let you run wild. If you join me, you can at least have some thrilling fun. “I don’t know anything else, but I can promise you that.”

Wi Hongryeon, who was quietly watching Seoryang.

Soon a smile appeared on her face. It was a smile as vicious as Seoliang’s eyes.

“Can you keep that promise?”

“Risk your life.”

“…Well, there is no need to risk your life, but since you said that, I really believe you.”

“Are you ready to answer now?”

Wei Hongryun scratched his head.

“I think if I say no, you’ll immediately break my head.”

“You want a joke? Then I will say yes.”

“Are you saying no?”

“I just came here with a decent gift to make a useful talent mine. So to speak, it is an offer and a temptation. “I’m not the kind of person who would break the ice just because I didn’t accept the offer.”

Wi Hongryun glanced at the wooden case in Seo Liang’s hand.

“If it’s a gift, do you mean that?”

“that’s right.”

“Is it an elixir?”

“okay.”

“What about performance?”

“very.”

“Compared to the Heavenly Demon Goddess?”

“Do you have a conscience? “You can’t compare it to that.”

“If I were to be a member of the Heavenly Demon Goddess, I would have completely wanted to be like Confucius.”

She brightens the mood with joke-like conversation.

But Wei Honglian’s face was more serious than Xu Liang’s. This was because he realized that this was a huge turning point in his life.

Wei Hongryun was lost in thought.

Xu Liang smiled.

‘It looks like the truth was conveyed.’

If she rudely says that she will answer that way, but just swallows the elixir and tells her to stomach it, there is nothing Seo-ryang can do about her. Nevertheless, the fact that Wei Hongryun was considering this precious elixir meant that he was seriously considering Xiliang’s proposal.

After a while.

Wei Hongryeon, with her face contorted to the fullest extent, scratched her head.

“Ah-oh! “I don’t like thinking too much!”

“No one likes complicated things. So do whatever you want.”

Wi Hongryeon, who was looking at Seo-ryang, proudly held out her hand.

“One more thing.”

“ok?”

“Take that and give me a knife as well.”

“…?!”

“I don’t want you to lose the Ink King’s Sword, so use your patience a little more.”

Seo-ryang made an evil expression.

“Are you a robber? Do you know how precious this elixir is?”

“I heard you’re not at the level of the Heavenly Demon Goddess.”

“I think you set your price too high?”

“Do you know why Dorongi, which is not used when the sun is shining, sells well only during the rainy season?”

Since they wanted me so desperately, they told me to spend a reasonable amount of money.

It was ridiculous, but I didn’t hate her. It was because he realized that his heart was leaning towards him.

“Well, no matter what, it’s still a bit harsh.”

“why.”

“I’ve been scammed before, but I think this is the first time I’ve been scammed.”

“What can you call fraud? It’s not like I’m asking for military pay. And speaking of which, if I eventually become stronger, wouldn’t it be good for Confucius too?”

This is an extremely shameless statement.

Seoryang, who was staring at her blankly, soon burst into laughter.

“I’ll pamper you every time I have time.”

“Don’t expect me to serve you like a servant like Mr. Ma.”

“I don’t even want it, man. And why is Dongpil a servant?”

“It looks just like that.”

Xiliang pointed to a bookshelf with his chin. It was the bookshelf closest to the puddle.

“Take what’s behind that bookshelf.

Wei Hongryeon took an item from behind the bookshelf with a puzzled look.

It was similar in length to any other long sword, but was more than four times the weight. Like the previous two swords, it was wrapped in cloth, so its appearance was unknown.

“I think you’ll like it.”

“What is it?”

“I’m afraid.”

Wi Hongryeon unraveling the cloth.

Immediately her eyes widened.

“This is…”

“Isn’t it a sword just like yours?”

The black that appeared was pure white without any blemishes.

The length of the three-inch handle was twice as long as that of other long swords, and the body of the sword was much shorter. The sword body was also three times wider and thicker than an ordinary long sword, although it was not as big as a Poa sword.

Although it could not be called an oddly shaped sword, it was clear that it had a very unique appearance.

And what was more impressive than its appearance was the ferocious spirit emanating from the sword itself.

“It’s Hopo Sword. “It is a new weapon called White Tiger Sword in the past.”

“…!”

“It’s one of the Four God Weapons that have now become legendary. Do you like it?”

Is it just that I like it?

From the moment I held it in my hand, I knew it was an unusual weapon, but I had no idea it was a hopo sword. If the Mukwanggeom was a magical sword that was considered the best of its time, the Hopogeom was a powerful sword that was a legend in the past.

“…gulp. “This is fine.”

This is a disingenuous answer. She was completely captivated by Hopo Sword.

Xu Liang nodded.

“Now sit in front of me.”

“….”

“…?”

“….”

“Hey man!”

“omg! yes? “Did you call me?”

“This is completely mesmerizing.”

“Someone says I lost my mind.”

“Okay, so hurry up and sit in front of me. “I don’t have time.”

“You mean you don’t have time?”

Xu Liang shook his neck.

“It is not at the level of the Heavenly Demon Goddan or the Great Hwandan of Shaolin, but it is a much better elixir than the Evil Spirit Dan or the Summoning Dan.”

“…!”

“I’m going to cram everything into your danjeon within a day, so concentrate properly. “If you let go of tension, the precious energy will be lost.”

“…I’m a little scared when it actually happens like this. “How much will you pamper me and help me with my luck?”

“You said it? “In the end, your becoming stronger is good for me.”

“Still.”

Xi Liang opened the wooden door.

In an instant, a refreshing scent filled me.

“Even if I invest this kind of gift, I’m not even sure whether you will survive a year from now.”

“….”

“Relax.”

A day later.

A group of people approached the entrance of Sohyanggok.

Jongnisan, the head of the Geogyeong family, and Haewangwi, the escort unit, had arrived.
