Episode 358
He came back from the dead
Krumbling, krumbling, krumbling… … !
Flash! Flash!
Kwakwakwakwakwa!!
The followers of the Shinwha Sect, including the Yabaek Shingun, were startled every time they went down Baekun Mountain and heard a flash of light and an explosive sound behind them.
Some people paused for a moment and looked back with worried eyes.
Although I couldn’t see the exact view because it was blocked by the mountain ridge, my mouth went dry when I saw the dark clouds filling the sky and the blood and black lightning falling below them.
Can this really be considered a fight between humans?
It is often thought that combat between unmanned vehicles is a clash of swords.
Even if sorcerers interfere, all they do is use various magic spells.
A collision that would cause such a thunderous crash, split the clouds, and shake the mountainside was something only imaginable.
But the fight between the Little Heavenly Horse and the Black King was not like that.
As if to show why they are one of the ten best people under the sky.
He showed an absurdly fierce battle as if to tell me why he could be considered the best in the world if he had been born a hundred years ago.
Even Maeng Yak-ran, who had secretly wanted to strike down So Cheon-ma, was now unable to say anything.
I just hope that the debris from the thunderstorm over there doesn’t fly this way.
“Don’t worry.”
As if concerned about the worries of such believers, Ya Baek Shin-gun spoke with inner strength in his voice.
“He is our Heavenly Horse who returned from the dead. Have you ever seen the Heavenly Horse defeated?”
Everyone’s eyes were turned to the Yabaekshin Army.
The eyes of the White Knights burned with enthusiasm.
“I can assure you that there is none. So this time too, the Heavenly Demon will return smiling, holding victory in his hands.”
The believers all nodded heavily.
Heavenly Demon King, the new religion is invincible.
Aren’t those eight letters engraved in the hearts of believers like a mantra?
So it was going to be the same this time too.
The White Knight realized that the eyes of the believers had changed and smiled faintly.
Then I quickly looked around.
“I was sure you were going to be waiting around here… … .”
Then someone shouted.
“Who is coming!”
The White Knights flew towards him.
There, merchants wearing military uniforms with the word ‘Cheonhye’ written on them were approaching on horses.
“This is the heavenly golden horse. Are you a believer of the Shinwha sect?”
“exactly.”
“Follow me. The devil is waiting.”
Since the name Sanghu Geum Si-hun had been heard by Ya Baek-shin-gun, he moved in that direction with his followers without much suspicion.
Soon we arrived at a yard filled with a large amount of luggage, carts, clothing, and the like.
The vampire demon was looking this way and gesturing for me to hurry.
“I have news that the 40,000 strong army of the Gangdong-do Commander-in-Chief has gathered near Baekun Mountain. Please hurry and change into your clothes.”
“Th, th, th… …! Hmm!”
The Yabaek Shin-gun gestured for the meng yak-ran and the believers to hurry and change into their clothes, then turned his gaze back towards Baekun Mountain.
A force of 40,000 soldiers would be enough to trample on any small country.
‘I heard that the government troops were coming, but I didn’t think they would bring that many just to punish us! … !’
Even if Yun Hui had reached the level of a semi-immortal, he would not be able to seize the opportunity to win against such a large force.
Moreover, the difficulty level increases further as they have to fight an all-out war to buy time for them to escape.
‘Little cult leader.’
Ya Baek Shin-gun could not forget the look in Yun-hui’s eyes as he smiled with his long white hair hanging down.
‘Please come back. Haven’t we even had a proper dinner together yet?’
The strength in his clenched fists grew stronger.
* * *
“Hmm! You’ve definitely mastered the art of the Hwa-an. Even if you’ve mastered the Ji-sal-su, it’s still a pretty good development.”
As if trying to lighten the mood, Pilmaon coughed slightly as he spoke.
“Isn’t it because of Pilmaon’s teachings? I’ve only been able to correct what I already knew, so I still have a long way to go. I can’t even dream of becoming a gold digger yet.”
“Ahem ahem ahem! Well, if it weren’t for this old man’s teachings, I wouldn’t have been able to get that far. Still, I shouldn’t be complacent and I should continue to work hard.”
“Of course.”
“I always thought you were as sly as a snake, but you actually have a humble and polite side.”
I smiled quietly as I watched Pilmaon praise me with a much warmer face.
Does this gentleman really know?
The fact that we already have some clues about Hwaan and Geumjeong.
I don’t know if it was because of the magic eye or because of the lion’s eye, but surprisingly, Hwaan Geumjeong and I were a good match.
Using the basic idea that forms the basis of the main battle was an easy task for me, who specialized in upper battle.
Of course, I didn’t show it.
I’m going to have to worry about this guy for a long time to come, so I can’t just end it now, right?
Oh Gwang-do seemed to think the same as me, as he nodded his head vigorously behind Pilmaon. As if telling me to just keep doing what I was doing.
Then he changed the subject with a light clap of hands.
“Isn’t there a bigger mountain left? What are you going to do with that large army? You’re not going to annihilate them, are you?”
This refers to the Saman army that is quickly running towards us.
They must have sensed my presence on the other side, as they were already getting ready to fight.
It goes without saying that we would have absolutely no chance of winning if we confronted them head on.
The number 40,000 is too many.
Even though you may show overwhelming power at first, you will eventually be defeated by the exhaustion of stamina and internal energy.
‘It’s not like there aren’t any experts in there.’
So, there was a way to hold back the 40,000-strong army by waging guerrilla warfare.
If we keep hitting and retreating day and night without rest, they will get tired and fall down.
I also have the Blue Dragon Banmok, so I might be able to seize the opportunity to win somehow.
Maybe… just like Oh Gwang said, we might be able to annihilate the entire Saman army.
But if that happened, the Angmasinhwajong would have been finished that day.
“Of course, that shouldn’t happen. Making enemies of the entire continent and the empire would only benefit the Bloodthirsty Gods.”
The power of the empire, which comes from a population of hundreds of millions and a vast territory, is truly immense.
If it weren’t for that, the Bloodthirsty Gods would have already turned the empire upside down and monopolized the world.
It meant that it was nothing to suppress the Angmasinhwajong, which had only about 30,000 followers left.
I couldn’t invite such a disaster just to avoid a bigger problem.
Above all… … .
“Besides, I am also a sorcerer. I don’t really want to commit any acts that will accumulate evil karma on my soul.”
From the moment the spiritual tree began to grow in my body, karma became the nutrient for the spiritual tree.
I didn’t really have any desire to become a magician, but I guess there’s no need to accumulate evil deeds.
“Then what are you going to do?”
“First, let’s try to talk. We’ll try to make a deal.”
I always feel this way, but the government and the martial arts world always have different interests.
The distinction between Jeongpa and Sapa only exists in the world of martial arts. From the perspective of the government, they are all just the same thugs.
Then wouldn’t it be okay to just attack that point?
In particular, the government troops’ justification for this expedition was to suppress socialism.
Then, all you have to do is create an excuse to avoid it. Along with some element that will benefit them.
“What if it still doesn’t work?”
“Well, there’s nothing we can do about it then.”
In that moment, my eyes became cold and sank.
“We cannot help but consider accumulating evil deeds.”
* * *
“Everyone stop.”
At the order of Dongji Hanbangrip, the Gangdong Army halted its advance.
It was because the tragedy of the Mokbulinyeon was unfolding right in front of them.
“her……!”
“Ahem!”
“How can you become human-”
“Are you sure this is the same person?”
Some people frowned or vomited out what was inside them at the sight of the massacre.
The Zanlei Sword Sect, which had not lost its momentum even against the Saman Gangdong Army, was completely torn to pieces.
Limbs torn off, internal organs spilling out… … .
Some had their heads turned, while others were standing with their bodies impaled on sword blades.
It was a scene of massacre that was hard to believe was caused by fighting in a war.
But the dead bodies, each in their own unique form, had one thing in common.
horror.
They were all filled with fear, as if they had met some mysterious, strong monster.
In fact, some of the corpses had limbs twisted in strange shapes and showed signs of being struck down by a monster that was at least 3 meters tall.
In addition, there is an eerie ghostly aura and evil spirit that sweeps across the battlefield.
A peculiar temperament monopolized the entire space around this place.
But the military officers who were confident in their own abilities were surprised by something else.
‘He is a strong man, but the sword marks left around him are all above average… …!’
‘A high-level trick that we simply cannot fathom.’
‘The idea is too strong. At least a teenager would be able to do it.’
‘Was there a master in the Angma Mythical Sect who could defeat the Black King Halsim? But his methods of sorcery are too different for him to be called the Heavenly Demon of the New Sword!’
While the entire army of Saman was tense, only Commander Du Han-su was still wearing his helmet pulled down low and showing no emotional expression.
“… Commander-in-Chief.”
“Guests are coming here. Get ready to welcome them.”
“Yes? Yes! I understand.”
Hanbangrip was about to ask what to do about this, but then he belatedly confirmed the presence of Socheonma approaching and shouted urgently.
“Forwards, shields forward! The troops fall back and open the way-!!”
While the defense force was being sent to the front to prepare for an emergency, the envoy arrived in front of Gangdong-gun and slowly walked towards them.
With her purple robe hanging down, her white hair swayed with every step she took.
The white mask covering his face radiated an ominous aura that blended perfectly with the magical energy secretly flowing out of him.
Even though he was clearly a large group of people, I felt like I was being outdone by him.
Gulp!
Someone swallowed dry saliva.
Brrrrrr… … .
Someone else held the sword in his hand, forcibly hiding his trembling hands.
Some people with weak livers and gall bladders were on the verge of fainting, but the people next to them barely managed to hold them up.
widely!
Then, before I knew it, the white masked man arrived in front of Duhansu.
Even though the masked man raised his head because it was clear that Duhansoo was on the horse.
Somehow, the people watching the scene had to have a strange feeling that the masked man, Socheonma, was looking down at Duhansu.
“Hey you! The person in front of you is the old man, Duhansu Dosa (都司), who is in charge of Gangdong-do Commandery! How can you be the leader of a cult that bullies the powerful and disrespects the people and not show any courtesy-”
Hanbangrip stopped talking midway as Duhansu quietly raised his hand.
Duhansu rode his horse and approached Socheonma a little further.
Hanbangrip wanted to shout that it was dangerous, but Duhansu didn’t seem to have any intention of listening to him.
On the one hand, he also had faith in Duhansu. As far as he knew, Duhansu was one of the secret weapons that the imperial family and government officials were proud of.
A soft voice came out from under the heavily pressed helmet.
“Is that right, Yeonunhwi, the Little Heavenly Horse?”
“exactly.”
“I know that the Socheonma is a sorcerer, but I don’t think he can use martial arts?”
Yun Hui became convinced that even though the royal family pretended to be indifferent, they were quick to catch on to changes in the martial arts world.
“It was a coincidence.”
“I see. They say there are many strange things happening in the world of martial arts. Is that why?”
Fit.
A light laugh escaped.
The eyes of Hanbangrip and his adjutants grew wide. The Duhansu they knew was a superior who was like an iron man and never knew how to smile.
“I think I have a lot to talk about with you. Come with me.”
Doohansu turned his horse’s head in the opposite direction.
“Ma, prepare the barracks-!”
The adjutants moved hastily at the sudden decision.
* * *
As expected from a hastily built barracks, the interior was a mess.
But there was a table in the center, so it wasn’t difficult for the two of them to talk.
widely!
Doohan Soo lightly snapped his fingers and covered the airway to prevent the sound from escaping.
While Yun-Hwi was thinking about what conditions he should put forward for the transaction, Du-Han-Su spoke first again.
“I’ll ask you again. Are you really the Little Heavenly Horse Yeon Yun-Hwi?”
“exactly.”
“If you are deceiving me, it is the same as deceiving His Majesty the Emperor. So, I will confirm one last time. Are you really the Little Heavenly Horse Yan Yunhui?”
“That’s right. There’s not a single lie in it.”
Yun-Hwi wondered to himself why he was so obsessed with his own status, but then suddenly Du-Han-Su took off his helmet.
‘female?’
But the other person looked completely different from what he had expected.
The deep voice was fake, and the face hidden beneath the helmet was that of a young woman who could barely be in her thirties.
And he was not a Central Plains person, but a Westerner with red hair and blue eyes.
Her identity was surprising, but what happened next was even more surprising.
Doo Han-soo suddenly put his helmet under his arm, knelt on one knee in a respectful posture, and bowed his head.
Like a believer who has come to see God.
“The ancient Manichaeans, Duhansu, meet the Heavenly Horse, the contemporary incarnation of Ahriman and the Eternal King (Aeon).”
“!?”
