Episode 599. End of counseling (5)
“General Commander! The headmaster has been contacted!”
“Give me the letter here.”
Ho Yo-seong’s eyes deepened as he opened the letter.
“……also.”
He recalled a conversation with Xi Liang in the past.
– He’s definitely fighting back. He’s not the kind of guy who’s going to back down like this.
– I think so too.
– But I will avoid a head-to-head match.
– Avoid head-to-head fights, assassination attempts and chaos. You know you can’t even buy time with that.
– Then, how will he attack?
– … … .
– Yes, you look confused too.
– Honestly, yes. Dam Sa-young has nothing left. Although the main force is still intact, it is a weaker force unless it is an opponent in a power struggle. Of course, I will try to protect even that amount of troops.
– All-out war, assassination, chaos, and even money are no match for us. In other words, he has no practical means to strike us.
– The declaration of defeat was especially fatal. It’s a matter of fraud. Even if an all-out war is envisaged, the troops under Dam Sa-yeong will not be able to exert less than half of their capabilities.
– Hmm.
– Then there is only one way left.
– What is it?
– This is me.
– … … ?
– Dam Sa-yeong has no choice but to step forward herself.
– Even if you bring all the troops under your command, you will go out alone in a situation where your opponent will not be able to do it?
– yes.
– … … Right.
– If power struggles and funds don’t work, the only thing left for Dam Sa-yeong is personal military force and magic.
– okay. There are no rumors that the lord of the Heavenly Dragon’s Palace is dead yet, so it would be fair to assume that they are together.
– That’s right. As with all-out war, the individual’s armed forces are no match for the opponent, and the only thing left to deal a fatal blow to this side is the magic method, but the problem is the vast amount of study of the magic method.
– hmm.
– Right now, even the secret master possessed a technique that transcends imagination. Because her opponent is her guru and she was careless herself, she was so wrong, but if she had been a bit wiser and more ambitious, it should be seen that she had the power to plan her world.
– I think so too.
– If you look at the Cheonryongsulbeop right now, that’s the case. Until the leader stepped forward, the Iron Blood Castle, which had been impregnable, almost collapsed overnight. It wasn’t like thousands or tens of thousands of troops pushed in. The iron-blooded castle almost collapsed with only the magic training camp.
– yes.
– I can’t be sure, but Dam Sa-young has one number left that can match or exceed that. So he must have proudly declared defeat.
– … … I get it.
– yes?
– I don’t know exactly, but I can roughly guess how he will try to attack us.
– Are you sure?
– okay.
– What the hell… … ?
– In the past, when I reached my current level through a fight with Song Seong-ju, there was a word from Master.
– … … ?!
– He said to stop Dam Sa-young before he becomes one with the world. I’ve been trying really hard to figure out what it meant, what exactly it was about.
– Do you understand?
– I guess. But other than that, I can’t think of any other way.
Since then, Xi Liang has come up with several suggestions for the attack method of Dam Sa-yeong.
And now, I got a call to prepare for one of the many plans I mentioned then.
‘Dam Sa-young.’
Ho Yo-seong stuck out his tongue.
‘Have I really crossed that line before the bizarre magic?’
Dam Sa-yeong was a person who was not bound by morality or ethics.
But that and this were entirely different matters. This is because this is not a matter of good and evil, but a matter that touches on the fundamental fear that humans ought to have.
Ho Yo-seong suddenly felt terrified.
I was afraid of Dam Sa-young’s self-will to achieve his goal even while giving up his humanity.
‘but… … .’
Also he knew
That this move is the best move Dam Sa-yeong has. If this move doesn’t work, that’s when he will face true defeat.
And Ho Yo-seong had no doubts about Dam Sa-young’s defeat.
“Contact Gangseo Store. Tell the people nearby to open the granary one more time. I need to heat the pot soon.”
“All right.”
Hoyoseong’s eyes twinkled.
“Come and see me somewhere.”

dump.
Chun Kyung Satae, who newly took the position of Amipa Jangmunsae, collapsed.
Seo Liang looked around.
Roaring.
A fire was sweeping all over Amipa, the sacred place of Buddha’s heart.

Amipa was no different from the Qingsongpa. All the old Buddhist halls and buildings were built as new ones, giving off a dazzling light.
And all of that was destroyed at the hands of Xi Liang.
“Cool! This, this reckless man!”
Shangyeongsae, who was lying on the ground bleeding, cried out with bloody tears.
“You will be cursed, you bastard! How dare you, the demonic cult’s master, the thousands-year-old Amifah…!”
“It’s been a thousand years of history, but it hasn’t developed, only regressed. They say stagnant water is bound to rot, but you guys were too harsh.”
“Hey, man!”
“Did you become a Buddha just by shaving your head? You are not qualified to attend a Buddha.”
The face of San Kyungsae turned red.
Seeing how she gets so angry even after being hurt that wouldn’t be strange if she died right away, she wasn’t a normal person either.
“Dare… dare!”
“and.”
Kwadeuk!
The neck of the mountain avalanche was broken.
Seo Liang said coldly.
“It’s not a life I’ve lived so wrongly that I heard abusive remarks from a lowly ascetic who is addicted to worldly desires.”
Koo Goo Goo!
The temple, engulfed in flames, collapsed with a crackling sound. Even Amipa walked the path of extinction.
Xi Liang was particularly merciless in this raid.
Cheongseong is also Cheongseong, but Ami crossed the line. It was not enough to catch and imprison all those who cried out for righteousness and mercy, and they tortured all kinds of things so that they could neither die nor live.
They didn’t do anything wrong, even the elders and brother-in-law of the Munpa. They have brought their parents and sisters to that point.
Furthermore, they kidnapped boys with smooth faces from the lower village and used them as s*x toys.
It was truly the height of depravity.
Quaang!
Seo Liang, who destroyed all the buildings with the Manap Golden Horse, performed a great feat.
Faaaaang!
Now, the new law has gained momentum.
It was the supreme spiritual art using empty space. Now, it was no exaggeration to say that he was really using land flight techniques.
Xi Liang quickly crossed the mountain range and arrived at the place where the party was.
Sarak.
Despite flying through the air with a blast, the landing was as light as a feather.
“You worked hard, Professor.”
“ok.”
“You’re not hurt, are you?”
Seo Liang smiled.
“What do you do with such idiots? Well, one of the damned eyes is stronger than your hearing.”
Ma Dong-pil lowered his head.
“Congratulations. With this, the arrangement of Sichuan Province is over.”
“Yeah. Now we should go to Seomseo.”
“Ah, even if it’s not, I got a call from Seomseo. It’s a letter directly from Ambassador Hyesim.”
The sage’s eyes widened.
“already?”
“yes.”
Dongpil Ma sent a letter to Seo Liang.
After reading the letter quickly, Xu Liang shook his head.
“Looks like you decided and pushed on. Indeed, Shaolin is Shaolin.”
Surprisingly, Shaolin’s strongest power, led by Hyesim, entered Shaanseo at once, burned the Zhongnan sect and even blew away the volcano wave.
I didn’t know if he used his hands as vigorously as Seo Liang. However, judging from the fact that he put the two factions to rest, at least the leadership and main troops must have been eliminated.
“Somehow, the timing was just right. If this happens, we’ll have to change our plans.”
“What do you plan to do?”
Xu Liang, who was deep in thought, looked at Zhu Qing.
Joo Cheong narrowed his eyes.
“Why do you look at me like that?”
“Hey, Emperor.”
“…?”
“Wasn’t the outing quite long? Even if it’s not right away, I’d like to go back after stepping on my hometown once.”
Joo-cheong’s eyes shook.
“You can’t?”
“Yes. I’m thinking of going to Hebei.”
Hebei.
Hebei has Beijing, and Beijing has the Imperial Palace.
“Do I really need to go there now?”
“The reason I didn’t refuse when you said you’d be with me is because you, as well as my brother-in-law, needed to see the world. A ruler should be closer to the earth than to the sky. That way, politics will also be closer to people.”
“…”
“Go to Hebei. As you go, look at the faces of the people who will be distorted by your politics in the future and will be full of joy. I hope you feel what they really want and what you have to do for them.”
“Heh heh heh.”
Joo-cheong, who burst out laughing, nodded his head.
“I don’t want to be taught that way by you, but you’re not wrong again.”
“I always say the right things.”
“It’s good. Let’s go. I also sometimes miss the air of Hebei.”
So, the group’s next destination was decided. The carriage quickly passed Sichuan and headed towards Hebei.
In order to go to Hebei anyway, I had to listen to Seonseo. Seo Liang sent a letter to Hye Sim asking to meet her at Seomseo.
Another ten days passed.
“Long time no see.”
Hyesim lowered her head.
“You’ve been through a lot.”
“You.”
Seo Liang looked behind Hye Sim. For an instant, his eyes widened.
“……It’s amazing.”
Behind Hyesim, as many as two hundred monks were lined up.
‘Hundred Eight Arhats.’
Yes. The group of two hundred monks included Shaolin’s legendary 100 Arhats and the monks of the Eight Great Lakes, as well as elders and old masters of the time.
It was an incredible power. It wasn’t even forming a formation, but I could feel the air waves shaking the heavens and the earth.
‘If it’s a head-to-head match, it would be difficult to discuss a match with Cheonma-il.’
The four troops belonging to the Heavenly Demon Army could be said to be the strongest power of the Heavenly Demon Church.
One unit was filled with 1,000 people, and each unit was equipped with the strength of the Daemun faction on the level of the old file.
Among them, Cheonma Il-gun was the strongest among the Cheonma-gun.
Hye-shim and So-rim swept away the Zhongnam faction and the Huashan faction with that amount of power.
“Have you been saving this much power? This is unfair for some reason? You didn’t help right away.”
“I’m sorry. I have nothing else to say.”
Seo Liang smiled.
“It’s okay. You guys must have had their own circumstances.”
“Thank you for your understanding.”
“So, where are you going next?”
“I’m thinking of heading to Hubei.”
“If it’s Hubei, then Jegalse?”
“exactly.”
“It’s going to hurt your head. Those guys aren’t from the mountain clan. They wouldn’t have weakened their martial arts just because they had vicious minds. Besides, the Jegal family is a family with more terrifying martial arts than martial arts.”
“So I’m leaving now. I know how scary Jinbeop is. If there was a power loss there, it could have been a problem with Jongnam and Hwasan.”
“Everyone had an idea. Alright, let’s get that figured out.”
A look of curiosity appeared on Hyesim’s face.
“Where is the headmaster going?”
“Hebei.”
“……!!”
Hye-sim’s face hardened at once.
“You’re hitting?”
“I have no intention of touching Dam Sa-young. I don’t know if I can.”
“……if?”
Xi Liang looked at Zhu Qing.
“The moment has come to use the man who will be the monarch of a new country.”
