316. Previous generation masters (2)
At his words, the enemies who had been watching Zhuge Se’s family turned their heads.
The man who seemed to be the leader among them slowly walked out.
There was a necklace around his neck that I had never seen before.
A white necklace with red highlights here and there.
It was made by Zhuge Liang using the bones of his family members.
A man walking with shining eyes let out a low voice.
“That’s quite a feat. Then you know what my method is. To know the one scented finger is truly like the Zhuge Liang.”
“Are you really the Dark King? I thought you died twenty years ago, so how could you… … .”
When Zhuge Liang asked with his eyes wide open, the man snickered and continued speaking.
“It’s a bit of a shame that you’re the head of the Zhuge family.”
“What does that mean?”
“Think about it carefully. If my master had personally stepped in, you wouldn’t have suffered so much. Right?”
“… … .”
Zhuge Liang’s eyes narrowed at his words.
According to him, it is related to the Dark King.
He is also the disciple of the Dark King.
Who was the dark king?
He was the one who caused a bloody disaster in the martial arts world thirty years ago.
Because of the Dark King, the inviolable rule between the government and the martial arts world was broken, if only for a moment.
It took a full three years for peace to be restored to the world of martial arts.
As the author said, thanks to the Dark King’s Ilhyangji, the small and medium-sized martial arts schools in the world trembled in fear.
Ilhyangji is a technique of digging out an opponent’s internal organs with just one index finger.
This technique became famous because the person who was hit by it felt pleasure rather than pain. Along with the strange scent.
The Jeongpa side concluded that it was a reaction in which blood friction occurred at a high speed and oxidized in the air.
The one who dealt with that dark king was the three greatest martial artists of the previous generation.
But the Dark King, who was said to be dead, was alive!
I couldn’t believe that the disciple he had raised was right in front of me.
That was when.
From a distance, the sound of fingernails scraping against metal plates could be heard.
Squeak.
Everyone turned their heads at that sound.
As the jarring sound grew closer, Zhuge Liang felt a chill run down his spine.
A strange feeling of anxiety creeping in.
He could immediately see where the anxiety was coming from.
It was an old man with white hair sitting on a chair in the dark.
The sound of fingernails scraping against metal plates was coming from the wheels on the chair.
Even though the old man sitting on the chair did nothing, the wheel rolled with an unpleasant noise.
You can roll an iron wheel with just your internal energy?
That was a realm that could only be seen at the end of a landscape.
Zhuge Liang’s eyes trembled without him realizing it.
With that level of incompetence, no one in Sacheondangga could stand a chance.
It was something that could turn you into a handful of blood the moment you came here.
The old man finally revealed himself.
A dark face with black clothes.
The well-groomed white hair stood out.
Judging by his age, he could have been a dark lord.
The three great martial artists who are said to have killed the author have all passed away, but the Dark King, who was said to be dead, has revealed himself!
Zhuge Liang’s shoulders trembled without him realizing it.
Even as my ribs were pulled out, the fear that I had not shown before came rushing in.
The chair with iron wheels stopped.
Squeak.
At the same time, the masked men prostrate themselves at him.
“I meet the dark emperor.”
“I see you, Master.”
Their actions were natural. However, Zhuge Liang’s eyes trembled even more.
Because the words ‘오체투지’ and ‘암제’ mean rebellion.
The fact that he was acting so shamelessly there meant that he had no intention of letting even one of the Zhuge family members here live.
Zhuge Liang took a step forward.
“Are you the legendary Dark King?”
To his question, the leader of the masked men answered on behalf of the dark emperor.
“How rude of you to ask Master a question!”
“It’s okay, Goya.”
The man called Amje waved his hand.
At the same time, the leader of the masked men stepped aside.
It wasn’t the masked man who moved, it was the dark knight who pushed him away with the air.
The iron wheel rolls again.
Squeak!
In the blink of an eye, the chair the dark emperor was sitting on stopped right in front of Zhuge Liang’s nose.
Zhuge Liang was unable to open his mouth for a moment.
Because an intangible spirit was quietly flowing out around him.
If the aura were visible, it would probably be blood red.
No, even now I see countless red flowers blooming around him.
The other family members at the back collapse to the ground, their legs giving out.
The inaction of Zhuge Liang standing opposite him could be seen as something truly remarkable.
The dark magician who had taken over the space in an instant opened his mouth.
“Do you have anything to say to me?”
“hmm…….”
Zhuge Liang was speechless.
At that moment, the masked men behind him came into his eyes.
But they stood there as if nothing had happened, escorting the queen.
It was clear that they were not simply controlling the space by showing off their momentum, but also controlling the spacing.
The dark knight continued speaking.
“I guess I scared you too much.”
As soon as those words were spoken, the aura surrounding Zhuge Liang’s body disappeared.
“Well, thank you for your kindness.”
“Oh. As expected from Jegal Se-ga. This is how it’s fun.”
“Are you really the Dark King?”
“The Dark King. It’s been a long time since I’ve heard of him… … .”
The dark knight narrowed his eyes.
An incalculable amount of complex emotions flowed through those eyes.
Just that feeling made Zhuge Liang flinch and step back.
The queen continued speaking, seemingly unconcerned about her emotions.
“How long can a king of old remain king? It is only natural that he should ascend to the throne as emperor at some point.”
“… … .”
“Let me tell you a story from my past.”
“… … .”
“It was such a long time ago that I don’t remember it very well. So… … .”
He continued speaking in a flat voice.
At his words, Zhuge Liang’s eyes widened.
It was a story related to the royal family.
The story goes back thirty-five years.
It is said that at that time, the prince was outstanding not only in academics but also in martial arts.
Thanks to his outstanding martial arts skills, the prince developed many connections with the most famous martial artists in the world.
Thanks to this, the young prince was revered as one of the five dragons of Gangho.
The sects that had become associated with him were secretly waiting for the crown prince to ascend to the throne.
It is said that an incident occurred in the imperial palace at that time.
The imperial family was turned upside down by the absurd incident of the crown prince being involved in a treason plot.
Although it ended with him giving up his position as crown prince, the prince who escaped from the royal family could not forgive those who plotted against him.
It is said that the prince hid in the world of martial arts and was in deep thought.
When the conversation reached this point, Zhuge Liang interrupted.
“Are you by any chance the prince?”
“It’s just as I thought.”
“So you’re saying that you’re the Yellow Dragon among the Five Dragons of Martial Arts?”
“There was a time when it was called that.”
“But why did you turn Kangho upside down like that?”
“Actually, it wasn’t me who turned the world of martial arts upside down.”
“So, is this justified, both thirty years ago and today?”
Zhuge Liang asked scoldingly.
The queen smiled nonchalantly and continued speaking.
“After hearing about my circumstances, the martial arts sects and powerful families came forward to help me.”
“So are you saying that he committed treason?”
“That is correct.”
“her…….”
Zhuge Liang was unable to continue speaking.
The corners of the queen’s mouth went up even more at that sight.
The dark emperor, who had been silently staring at Zhuge Liang for a long time, continued speaking.
“But, what is meant by ‘human-faced beast of burden’… … .”
At the following words, Zhuge Liang opened his eyes wide.
The story coming out of the dark emperor’s mouth was a story that even the Zhuge family, who had served as the military commander of the Justice Alliance for generations, did not know.
They are said to have secretly moved to regain imperial power, calling the crown prince by the nickname of “Amwang.”
The problem is that most of the sects and factions turned their backs.
Whether it was through persuasion or for their own benefit, they drove the Dark King down the thousand-foot cliff of Mount Shu.
The queen stopped talking there.
Then he looked at Zhuge Liang.
“Judging by your expression, it seems like you really don’t know.”
“This is my first time hearing about it.”
“Do you know who moved the sect and Sega that betrayed me?”
“no way…….”
“That’s probably true. There is only one brain that can move such a huge force. It’s Zhuge Liang.”
“hmm.”
“According to the information I just received, it seems like your brother has been faithful to my words. So I must keep my promise as well.”
“So you’re saying you’ll let us go?”
“Of course I should let you go.”
After finishing speaking, the dark emperor looked behind him.
“Goya, let them go.”
“Yes, Master.”
After finishing speaking, the masked man called Goea walked towards Zhuge Liang.
Then he extended his hand towards Zhuge Liang.
At that moment, Zhuge Liang closed his eyes slightly.
I didn’t think they would really let me go.
It was clear that the sarcasm was what prompted the queen to release him.
But, contrary to his expectations, when his fingers pressed the Jianjing point, his upper body moved freely.
His legs were fine, but his arms were not able to move freely.
In a way, it was a state where only the upper body was stiff.
Then the monster shouted to his subordinates.
“You release the Zhuge Liang family!”
“all right.”
The subordinates roamed among the people of Zhuge Sega and relieved them of their blood pressure.
The movements of the Jegal Se family, which had been unnatural for a moment, returned.
Now I can walk naturally and move my upper body.
Then the dark emperor said.
“What are you guys doing instead of going?”
At that voice, Zhuge Liang, who had been terrified until then, narrowed his eyes.
There’s no way I can survive like this.
It was clear that if I went outside, someone might cut my throat.
Besides, I am currently in a state where I can’t even use my martial arts skills because I’ve been poisoned by the mountain spirits.
He was wondering whether he should stay here or leave as the dark lord had said.
At that time, several warriors of the Zhuge family slowly moved toward the nearby door.
Then the dark knight behind him continued speaking.
“Hey, you’re feeling uncomfortable with that mask? I think it’s time to take it off now.”
“Understood, Master.”
After finishing speaking, the monster took off his mask.
The monster’s face was revealed.
At that moment, Zhuge Liang opened his mouth wide.
Skin that looks like rags have been stuck to it, and strange hair that is half white and half black.
It had a grotesque appearance, as if several faces had been stitched together.
Zhuge Liang seemed to know why he was called a monster.
The surprise was short-lived, and Zhuge Liang shouted to his family.
Showing your face was tantamount to saying you didn’t want to take a single step out of here.
“Everyone, stay still!”
At that moment, two warriors of Jegal Se ran towards the door.
Then he went out the door.
Crunch!
What passed through the door was half of their bodies.
As soon as they passed through the door, a sharper device than a dog’s paw sliced them in half.
At that moment, Zhuge Se’s family screamed.
“evil!”
“What is that?”
The dark emperor continued speaking, seeming to enjoy their screams.
“If there were people coming in from outside, it would be like that… … .”
“Didn’t you say you would send it?”
“It’s up to you to go, but I’d like to enjoy some fishing.”
“Fishing? What do you mean?”
“Wouldn’t the younger brother of the head of the household have sent someone? If he just kept his promise quietly, wouldn’t he be the Jegal family? And do you think I would be satisfied with you? Today, I will erase the name Jegal family from the world of martial arts, so know that.”
“… … .”
“Oh, I misspoke. The name Jegal Se-ra may shine even brighter. Our children will take that place.”
The dark magician pointed to the monster’s subordinates.
At that moment, Zhuge Liang’s eyes widened.
