Chronicles of the Demon Faction

Episode 152 Sow seeds (2)

Paang!

The sharp blade of the spear shone coldly in the moonlight.

“Whoop.”

Zhong Lishan’s body, out of breath, was drenched in sweat.

“I guess it was a little lacking.”

He looked at a rock in the distance.

Fight! Tuk!

A dozen solid lines were drawn on a rock the size of a house.

But that was all. There were some crumbled and broken parts, but they were not cleanly split.

Sreuk.

There was regret on the face of Zhonglisan, who had collected the Sea Dragon Spear.

“As expected, it’s difficult.”

At that time, a voice came from behind.

“Amazing?”

Zhong Lishan looked back.

Before I knew it, Seoryang was walking from the entrance of the bamboo forest.

“It is an act of stabbing a spear. If you put your energy into it, it should be normal for a hole the size of a spear blade to be made in the rock. “But it looks like it was cut with a spear blade, only the incontinence is drawn.”

Zhong Lishan lowered his head.

“Are you here, my lord?”

Xu Liang waved his hand.

“I’m embarrassed, so just call me Confucius.”

“You can’t do that.”

Unlike Ma Dong-pil, who was blunt but flexible in his own way, Jong-lisan was a very solid man. There was no way they could change the name.

Seo-ryang shrugged and came next to him.

“Moonlight training? “It’s charming.”

“It’s nothing special.”

“It’s not a big deal.”

Seoryang looked at a rock far away.

“It’s about four feet away from this place. “With this Hal’s strength, he showed such a skill… As expected, not just anyone can become the head of the Seven Families.”

“Compared to my lord, I am still far behind.”

“Of course that’s true.”

Zhong Lishan asked.

“Have you finished talking with Geumgaju?”

Xu Liang did not answer.

He, who was watching the rock, held out his hand to Zongnisan.

“The window.”

Ask the warrior to lend you a weapon.

Even the relationship between lord and subject was not polite. However, Zhong Lishan handed over the Sea Dragon Spear without the slightest hesitation.

“Ohh?”

After swinging the sea dragon spear a few times, Seoryang quietly admired it.

“Is this a thing? The balance between the spear shaft and the blade is exquisite. By mixing soft iron appropriately, the risk of damage was reduced to the limit. “It’s not just a magic soldier.”

Boom! Boom!

A spear wielded carelessly. The silver spear blade cut through the air.

Xu Liang smiled.

“I don’t know what craftsman made it, but you’re lucky.”

“thank you. But…”

“Huh?”

Zhong Lishan asked in surprise.

“Have you ever held a spear?”

“window? of course.”

“Indeed… the swinging motion was very natural.”

Boom! Buuuuung!

Hold the center of the spear and rotate it properly. It didn’t seem like it took much effort, but the window seemed to come to life on its own.

“It’s not just the window. “There is no weapon that I have not handled, such as the ax, whip, mandarin duck, sword, and sword.”

“You are amazing.”

“It’s nothing special. I just used whatever I could get my hands on. If necessary, you can even swing a teacup or an animal carcass.”

“A corpse?”

chuck.

Seo-ryang stopped holding the spear and scratched his head.

“Military technology is actually not that difficult.”

“yes?”

Seoyang slightly spread his thumb and index finger.

“No matter if you are the best in the world or the best in history, if you have a hole like this in your chest, you will die.”

“…?”

“It doesn’t matter whether the sword is long or short, or whether it’s a spear, an ax, or an arrow. “Isn’t martial arts ultimately created to achieve just one result?”

“…!”

“No matter what you use, if you produce the right result, you can say you have used the weaponry at hand efficiently.”

Zhonglisan’s eyes shook.

The lord was giving the same advice he had given Ma Dong-pil. However, although the words were the same, the content was completely different.

Although he spoke of the martial law of properly understanding the sword in his hand,

the lord spoke of the martial arts of making only the right results no matter what he held in his hand.

In other words, he spoke of the law of martial arts, and his lord spoke of the law of death.

It’s the same, but the interpretation is completely different. It clearly tells how the two people have lived so far.

“You can tell how to use the military flag by looking at its shape. That’s why the martial arts technique you just used was amazing. Because the act of stabbing resulted in cutting.”

Sreuk.

Xi Liang lowered his posture.

He held the sea dragon spear and pulled it back, thrusting his left arm forward.

“To use it properly, you have to swing it like this.”

Paang!

Xi Liang lashed out his sea dragon spear.

Phew.

The bamboo leaves floating in the air swirled around the sea dragon spear.

Suuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu.

Zhong Lishan’s eyes widened.

Kugoogung!

The rock collapsed, breaking into dozens of pieces.

Xi Liang handed the spear to Zhong Lishan.

Zhonglisan fell silent.

“how…?”

“Whether it is the pinnacle of martial arts or the pinnacle of death, there is only one result. In other words, it is to dissuade Jongryu and return to the sect.”

“…!”

“You ended up cutting yourself with a spear. But your perception is limited to the window.”

Seo-ryang tapped his head.

“You threw out your spear, but didn’t your energy move along with the slash of the spear’s blade? It’s an extension of that. “Imagine that what you are holding is not a spear but a sword.”

“Sword?!”

“Isn’t a sword made by shortening the shaft and increasing the blade of a spear?”

At that moment, Zhong Lishan was shocked as if he had been hit in the back of the head.

Slurp.

Zhonglisan slowly takes his stance once again.

Zhonglisan, who had been concentrating with calm breathing, stopped breathing at some point.

thud!

A strong recoil from the ground soared from the lower body to the upper body.

Whiiiiing!

A window flashed like a flash.

At the same time, a solid line was drawn on about a dozen bamboo trees behind the rock.

Tudu dududuuk!

Soon, about a dozen bamboo trees split into hundreds of pieces.

Zhong Lishan opened his mouth without realizing it. I threw out the spear with a moment of realization, but I had no idea that it would really succeed.

“It’s imagination.”

Zhong Lishan was startled and looked at Xi Liang.

Seoyang smiled and continued speaking.

“Living and fighting are manifestations of will. Will is the desire to do something. There’s no way your martial arts skills will falter just by adding a little bit of imagination, right?

“…okay.”

“It’s the same. It doesn’t matter what weapon you use. Aligning your energy with what you desire. “That alone makes a lot of things easier.”

Zhong Lishan straightened his posture and bowed his head deeply.

“I received a great lesson. Thank you.”

“What are the teachings? “I just scraped together some crude words and said it in a plausible way.”

“Even the same words are perceived differently depending on the situation.

Now that I have realized my previously unresolved martial arts needs through Confucius’ advice, I don’t know how to repay this favor.”

“Grace….”

Seo-ryang scratched his head.

“You really embarrass people. “But if you feel like you owe something back, could you do me a favor?”

Sreuk.

Zhong Lishan got down on one knee.

“My lord, you just need to give an order. “The word ‘favor’ is not easy to handle.”

“Tsk. “I need to get used to this relationship.”

Seoyang sat down in his seat.

Seoliang straightens his back and crosses his arms. A slight look of distress appeared on his face.

“Well, let me first talk to Geumgaju.”

“yes.”

“The conversation ended well. Although it is difficult to bring the Jeoksaga’s demons back to normal right away, we have agreed to provide financial support for the next three years.

If that’s the case, you won’t get bullied by strangers. Of course, considering the value of our school’s name, no one would mess with it carelessly.”

“okay.”

“And I decided to own 30% of Jeoksaga’s shares for three years.”

Zhong Lishan’s eyes widened as if torn.

“Three percent… do you mean?”

“uh. “There are no troops that can be deployed immediately, and money is more useful than unmanned troops right now.”

Xiliang pouted his lips.

“I tried to swallow it all in one go, but I only got 30 percent. This is all because of those swordsman bastards. “Such things.”

Isn’t that a bit too greedy?

A thought occurred to him for a moment, but Zhong Lishan did not say it out loud.

Moreover, in order to become a successor, you will have to go through various types of battles.

Whether it is a war between organizations or a dispute between soldiers, in the end, money can be used to support it in order to exert its power.

the problem is.

“Will the Protestant church just leave it alone?”

Xiliang snorted.

“why? Don’t you think you are more dangerous than the Jeoksaga?”

“yes?”

“You decided to take me as your master. If this were interpreted differently, wouldn’t the school be in an uproar?”

“…!”

“That’s why we added a clause saying, ‘Until there is a successor.’

The relationship between you and me will be broken if I do not become the successor. The same goes for Jeoksaga. “In the end, this whole relationship is only half the story.”

Zhong Lishan’s face hardened.

“I did not serve you lord with the intention of leaving.”

Xiliang shook his head.

“It’s nice to hear people say we’ll hold hands until the end, but in the end, we’re all going to die. “If you don’t like it, just help me as much as you can.”

Zhong Lishan lowered his head. There was nothing else to say.

After looking at Zhongnisan Mountain for a while, Seo-ryang whetted his appetite.

“But there are three things to say.”

“yes.”

“I have some work to do to get that 30%.”

Zhonglisan realized. The favor I would like to ask myself is regarding this matter.

“What is?”

“decoding.”

“…yes?”

“We need to detoxify the demons of the Jeoksaga. “If you don’t detoxify the new lung, you won’t get anything, let alone your 30% share.”

“that…!”

“It’s a fair deal. I tried to negotiate with the head of Jeoksaga, but there was no leader to negotiate with.

In that case, I have to eat at least a little bit of flesh, but the flesh is all rubbish, right?”

“….”

“What are you going to do? It’s too much to just eat, so I gave up, but it’s enough to fill my stomach. Then, wash it thoroughly and eat it.”

Zhong Lishan, lost in thought for a moment, said.

“Please give up on Jeoksaga.”

“….”

“If you want more power, why not aim for another power? If I join you, we can go to one more of the seven houses….”

“No.”

Xu Liang’s face became serious.

“I can’t touch anything else anymore. That’s too much of a burden. “It’s not just a matter of power or money, it’s a matter of rumors.”

“….”

“And well… I’m thinking of doing something quite interesting in the process of detoxifying Shinseonlung.”

“yes?”

Do you think it’s fun?

Xu Liang smiled. It was a cold smile that startled the Zhonglisan he was facing.

“It’s a little dangerous, but it could turn the world around.”

“….”

“That’s why I came to give you a favor, or an order.”

Zhong Lishan lowered his head.

“What should I do?”

* * *

Ten days later, a Jeon Seo-eung flew into the Yeonju branch.

The letter tied to Jeon Seo-eung’s ankle was from Jong Li-san, who had returned to the family that night.

“Confucius.”

“okay.”

After seeing the letter, Seo-ryang took all four swords and stood up.

“Let’s pick up a flashy gift or a bundle before returning home.”
