Episode 1236.
-The author is not a human being, but a monster.
Trembling.
The surviving warriors could only tremble, not even daring to fight back.
The corpses of those struck by the magic were so brutally mangled that they could not be seen with one's eyes.
dump.
Like a toy that has been shattered into pieces.
The unmanned soldiers, who were looking at the corpses lying around in pieces, finally threw down their weapons.
Rebelling against such a murderous spirit will only result in a cruel death.
It would be better to show complete surrender and ask for mercy, as this would increase the chances of survival.
* * *
Not far away, in the darkness overlooking the Yangguan branch, a beautiful woman in Miao attire was watching the whole scene.
“It’s over now.”
The swelling was not caused by the lack of education.
As if he was enjoying the slaughter, he used the method of tearing flesh into pieces and pulling out the internal organs.
“Hoo hoo hoo.”
She smiled coldly, her eyes closing into crescent moons as if satisfied.
“The magic energy that had been dormant within him burst out, and he couldn’t bear it any longer.”
Everything went according to plan.
Since leaving the palace, there was only one thing she was after.
Exploding the hemp nature that is deeply embedded in the psyche of Bu Eun-seol.
But this was by no means an easy task.
The fact that a person who should have long ago dyed the world in blood and shaken the martial arts world has instead lived only doing the right thing.
Because it was proof that his self-control and will were beyond imagination.
But there was one time in the past too.
The Empress Dowager had a precedent for exploding this kind of temperament of a great man.
And this time, we have prepared traps and schemes that are much more elaborate and powerful than before… …
As a result, the dormant hemp spirit within Bu Eun-seol's mind exploded.
From now on, he.
He will become enraged at everything that stands in his way, will explode with murderous intent, and will use cruelty without hesitation.
“No, before that, this incident will become a public service to the martial arts world.”
No matter how much he tried to protect the Yanggwan branch, he massacred the Jeongsa Ma's masters without hesitation.
If we had put our minds to it, we could have easily stopped their offensive.
However, without suppressing his killing intent, he mercilessly killed everyone present.
The method was so cruel that I couldn't bear to look at it.
Since he committed such an atrocity, the Murim Alliance will most likely seek to impose severe sanctions.
Moreover, once the magic runs wild, it is nearly impossible to control it… … so soon he will repeat the same massacre again.
“There’s no way the martial arts people would tolerate such magic.”
The conditions for being classified as a martial arts official are complex.
Among these, the thing that the martial arts world is most wary of is the 'uncontrolled strongman'.
This is also the reason why the Ma Cheon-je and Blood Demon were not immediately recognized as public figures despite having killed countless people.
Their slaughter took place in a clear antagonistic context, with clear targets and objectives.
This is because he maintained a cold-blooded, restrained attitude rather than being swayed by emotions.
That is, even that cruelty was recognized as a form of order.
On the other hand, Bu Eun-seol chose to carry out a full-scale slaughter under the pretext of protecting the Yanggwan branch.
He killed all the masters present at the scene, regardless of whether they were true or false, and in the process, he showed no signs of trying to distinguish between the severity of the enemy and the threat.
This cannot be seen as a result of a judgment of the situation, but rather as a manifestation of a rampant murderous intent.
“What those cowardly and fearful martial artists were concerned about was not the scale of the slaughter, but the method and attitude of the killings….”
Excessive killings beyond justification, indiscriminate executions without regard for the cause, and a clear impression of an inability to control emotions and murderous intent.
Because of all these factors.
The swelling is not the great master of magic.
You will come to perceive it as a disaster that can lose its direction and run wild at any time.
In the end, it's like Chiljima Island and Buzanyang.
He too will be branded as a hemp man.
A few days later.
The incident that occurred at the Yanggwan branch caused a great stir in the martial arts world.
The leaders of each sect and the martial arts community received false information that the Jang Bo-do of the Cheonjeolmado had appeared.
After forming a coalition force to obtain it, he immediately attacked the Yanggwan branch of the Demonic Clan.
And when the spirit of the soulless spirit heard the news, he immediately appeared.
The gathered martial artists were brutally killed.
-That soulless spirit?
The martial artists couldn't believe it.
He has maintained a more righteous course of action than anyone else, and has been well-liked not only by the magicians but also by the political faction.
No matter how much the martial artists are like Jeongsa-ma.
Blinded by the temptation of Jang Bo-do, he attacked the Yanggwan branch of Ma Jeon in the border region.
How could such a brutal massacre be committed?
Especially when the investigation team dispatched from the Murim Alliance witnessed the tragedy firsthand,
Even seasoned, experienced agents in this field.
It is said that he was constantly vomiting because the condition was so miserable and disgusting.
In particular, traces of separation of flesh and bone… …
It goes on to prove that he is no longer a hero or a chivalrous man, but has transformed into a great slaughterer of the devil.
―Even if you are the successor to the Demon King, even if you have a legitimate reason.
I cannot tolerate such brutal slaughter!
Starting with the Murim Alliance, the sects that suffered damage from him or people related to him.
They gathered together to impose sanctions on the cruelty and unnecessary killings of the spiritless.
This time, I let it slide because there was a justification, but he might lose his mind and do something like this again later.
It was to designate them as public enemies of the martial arts world and announce that they could no longer coexist.
However, Gaebong, who was investigating this case together, expressed a strange opinion.
―The Soulless Lord… …seems to have deliberately killed them so cruelly, to punish them with one blow.
Although the past prosperity was not found.
As an information organization, it has grown more open than in the past.
After investigating the Yanggwan branch, unexpected results were announced.
―In this case, I think the various factions of the Jeongsa faction should be grateful for the resolute decision of the Muhonryungju.
The Murim Alliance couldn't help but feel bewildered by the unexpected announcement of the opening.
-What does that mean?
Although the Murim Alliance showed signs of discomfort, Gaebong calmly expressed his opinion again.
―I wondered how they could all come together in such a short period of time… …
Except for a few who were incited, most of them are close to being either sectarians who have infiltrated each sect or those planted by some force.
Let's check again.
I'm talking about the actions of those executed by the spirit of the soulless.
Gae-bok heard that the spirit master had committed a massacre.
It is said that he felt extremely suspicious and conducted a thorough investigation of the dead.
Then, I discovered an unexpected and surprising fact.
-I don't know what you're talking about.
The Murim Alliance was embarrassed.
I couldn't ignore the opinion of the Open Sect, which still maintains the largest information network among single sects.
In the end, the spirit of the soulless spirit began to investigate the dead people closely again.
Then a surprising fact was revealed.
―Most of those who died to the Soulless Lord were villains with human faces and beast hearts who had committed heinous acts!
The results were shocking.
Most of the people who died at the hands of Bu Eun-seol.
They were the ones who committed countless evil deeds that had never been revealed or resolved until now.
Among them, there were those who murdered their fellow sect members, and there were those who betrayed their friends and monopolized the Yeongdan.
There were also many who massacred innocent people and plundered their wealth, and many of them abandoned their sects and leaked internal information to the outside world.
―Even the Jang Bo-do incident was a fabrication by some force.
Meanwhile, the opening revealed another truth.
The reason why the martial artists flocked to the Yanggwan branch.
All of them received information manipulated by unknown forces and were incited by them.
However, it was never revealed who exactly carried out these acts and for what purpose.
―This is… … .
The Murim Alliance couldn't help but feel embarrassed.
Through this incident, the power of the spiritless spirit who had always boasted of invincibility was broken.
Even though they tried to control his actions as he was involved in all sorts of martial arts world affairs.
All those he killed were villains who had committed heinous crimes, and the Jang Bo-do incident was also orchestrated by unknown forces?
After all, didn't he do the right thing once again?
―Are you saying that all of this was a plan of the soulless spirits?
It is already well known that the Soulless Lord is not only very meticulous in his personality, but also uses ingenious strategies.
But among the warriors who attacked the Yanggwan branch, did you only kill the evil ones?
Of course, we couldn't conclude that all the dead were evil people.
However, since there was a justification for attacking the Majeon Yanggwan branch, no one could easily raise an issue about the result.
When things turned out like this, most of the martial artists…
The Soulless Lord was aware of all the sects and warriors who were being incited by some force.
I decided that I had dealt with the evildoers on this occasion.
-Is that possible?
Most intelligence organizations were skeptical of the opinions of such martial artists.
What if the Soulless Lord knew all these facts in advance?
There was no need to wait until the Yanggwan branch was attacked.
There was no need for the unmanned aerial vehicles training nearby to risk their lives to stop it.
-Maybe the soulless spirit.
It may be that they investigated and examined everything from those who became famous in the martial arts world to the actions of third-rate warriors.
Those in the intelligence community knew how absurd and absurd these rumors were.
The martial artists thought, "If it's the spirit of the Martial Spirit, then it could be like that!" and continued to deify him.
Because that's what has happened up until now.
A superman who makes the impossible possible.
That is the very symbol of the spirit of the Martial Arts Master, Bu Eun-seol, that the people of the martial arts world think of.
―Did the Soulless Lord finally eliminate the evildoers this time too?
―Although he always appears cold-hearted, he only insists on doing what is right.
―This is the next Jeonju of the Demon King.
A bizarre event that has never happened before in the history of martial arts has occurred.
Despite the fact that he had slaughtered countless civilians with brutal methods, the martial artists began to praise him.
―The righteous great demon.
He is a magician, but he is righteous, and in front of the evil ones, he becomes a cruel magician who destroys everything.
The martial artists gave him a strange nickname that contained both fear and admiration.
* * *
Majeon, Jammagak conference room.
Inside the darkened hall, only faint moonlight seeped through the bars.
Among them stood Yu Yun-ryong.
His usual cool expression was nowhere to be found, and his beautiful face was covered in a look of bewilderment, as if he couldn't understand anything.
“What on earth is going on?”
As his voice broke the silence, a tall shadow appeared in the darkness of the conference room.
The eyes that shine in the darkness and the tall body lines were reflected in the moonlight.
It was a swollen eye.
"Your inner murderous intent and magic burst forth. How on earth did you manage to single out only the wicked to kill?"
At that time, Yu Yun-ryong followed Bu Eun-seol with all his might, but there was no way he could catch up to his lightness.
In the end, even though I ran all day, I couldn't even get near the Yanggwan branch.
Meanwhile, Bu Eun-seol had finished all his work in half a day and returned to Ma Jeon first.
"hmm."
At Yoo Yun-ryong's question, Bu Eun-seol slowly raised her head.
His eyes still had a faint red tint to them.
It was evidence that the magic had not completely subsided.
“Did you deceive me too?”
Before leaving the magic zone.
The murderous intent and magic that Bu Eun-seol showed.
Even Yu Yun-ryong, who had handled all sorts of tasks in the Demon Realm and seen the best of the best, had never seen anything like it.
Although I had never seen the Blood Demon in its prime, I could be sure that it would surpass it.
But even after spreading such magic.
You betrayed your sect and joined some power, or you only killed the world's most shameless villains?
“It wasn’t intentional.”
Bu Eun-seol opened her mouth with a bitter smile.
“At that time, my true inner rage burst out, and I planned to unleash it on all the martial artists in the Yanggwan branch.”
He paused for a moment and looked down at his hands.
It looks like there's still blood on his hands.
"I didn't realize it, but I seemed to possess the temperament of a hempenman beyond mere lust for life. Perhaps the Empress Dowager saw through it and laid a final trap."
Bu Eun-seol calmly told the story of the events that had occurred since returning from the palace.
“So you’re saying this wasn’t a plan that was prepared in a short period of time?”
Yu Yun-ryong also made the same deduction as Bu Eun-seol a while ago.
"Similar attempts have been made in the past, and they probably succeeded. So they've prepared this method again."
He said with a confident expression.
“If someone with a demonic nature appears, I can make them a public enemy in the martial arts world at any time.”
“That’s right. I thought so too.”
“But how did you only catch the bad guys?”
Bu Eun-seol stared into space and spoke proudly.
“I just followed my grandfather’s footsteps.”
"what?"
“Blood flow seven times.”
Bu Eun-seol, who was looking at Yu Yun-ryong, smiled.
“It seems to be able to detect evil karma.”
And he explained in detail the situation that occurred at the Yanggwan branch.
As he tried to unfold the Bloody Seventh-day Advent, tears of blood flowed from his eyes and the chains inside his body suddenly became wrapped around the sword.
Then among the people there appeared those who were coiled in the form of disgusting snakes.
Every time I dealt with them, the magic and life force in my body decreased drastically.
“There is such a use for Taoism…….”
Yu Yun-ryong opened his mouth.
“It’s not for nothing that it’s called Bloody Seven Sects.”
I was wondering why such a cruel and powerful magic technique was called "blood and tears."
It really makes me shed tears of blood.
This made it possible to select those who had committed evil deeds.
“No, I don’t think it’s just that.”
Yu Yun-ryong, who had been thinking deeply about something for a moment, had his eyes sparkling.
“You said the chains inside my body were wrapped around a sword? If you really look at karma, that seems more related than the Blood Flow and Seven Foods.”
“It could be a combination of the two. My grandfather had both.”
“So, before he acquired the chain, did my grandfather not see any evil deeds?”
At Yoo Yun-ryong's question, Bu Eun-seol shook her head.
“I don’t know about that.”
He still couldn't exactly understand why this phenomenon occurred.
“What is certain is that this phenomenon only occurs when magic and life force explode.”
After that, I tried to spread the Blood Flow Seven-Sik, but there was no bloodshed or chains coming out on their own.
Perhaps it was only possible when the suppressed murderous intent and magical energy within him exploded, just like when he arrived at the Yanggwan branch.
“It seems like your grandfather was protecting you.”
Yu Yun-ryong smiled faintly.
“I just had that feeling.”
Bu Eun-seol, who had a blank expression for a moment,
"okay."
He stared into space with a longing expression on his face.
“That could be.”
There's no way my grandfather could have predicted everything that would happen in the distant future and made these arrangements.
But all the knowledge and strength my grandfather left behind was always with me, embedded in my body.
So I wanted to believe.
Even at this very moment, his grandfather is watching over him.
“Anyway, it’s fortunate.”
Yu Yun-ryong lightly patted his shoulder and changed the subject.
“After this incident, the Empress Dowager will never even think of touching you.”
Those who, like the Empress Dowager, look into the human mind and make detailed plans accordingly
I feel an instinctive fear of beings I cannot understand.
Even though Bu Eun-seol was consumed by madness, he only killed evil villains.
I will never be able to grasp or understand this process, which has led to my immense fame.
Unless you are prepared to destroy your own foundation, you will never touch the swelling snow.
“But you know.”
Yu Yun-ryong opened his mouth as if remembering something.
“Perhaps it was also the Queen Mother or the Jinmagung who framed the elder Chiljima for being the greatest murderer in the world… that was part of his schemes.”
This time, the plan that the Empress Dowager has put into action is.
It was so meticulous and perfect, as if he had been looking into the circumstances and minds of those who had suppressed their desires and magic for a long time.
“There’s no way they would have prepared such an elaborate strategy in such a short period of time just to target you, right?”
Perhaps the Empress Dowager used the same method to drive Chiljima and Buzanyang into being evil.
Building on that success, I wondered if they might be applying the same method to Boo Eun-seol this time.
“They are the ones who use even the common people without hesitation.”
“I’ve been wondering the same thing all along.”
Bu Eun-seol spoke in a calm voice.
“I wonder if it might be a bad relationship that has been passed down from our ancestors.”
Yu Yunryong's eyes became dark.
It is said that even the most legendary Taoist monks of all time, like Chiljima, have laid a trap of emotion that they cannot escape.
That means their roots, which have been passed down for generations, are strong and cannot be easily toppled.
“It’s okay. I’m different.”
At that time, Bu Eun-seol spoke confidently.
"My grandfather wanted to shoulder everything on his own. But I have absolutely no intention of doing that."
Both grandsons are equally weak to emotions, and have killed countless evildoers to save the people.
One person was praised as a world-class assassin.
One person… … was given the name of Righteous Hemp.
That alone.
The endings of Bujanyang and Bu Eunseol will definitely be different.
“He is a righteous hemp.”
At that moment, a smile spread across Yu Yun-ryong's lips.
“That’s quite a fitting nickname.”
In fact, he had known for a long time.
In the past, Bu Eun-seol had been suppressing the killing energy within his body with extreme self-control.
That he mastered his mind through meditation and maintained his humanity by constantly fighting with himself.
Because the theory of the wealthy at the time of the Sipmajeon was the very essence of magic.
At that time, Yu Yun-ryong had faced him as an enemy, and felt frustrated and helpless in the face of his overwhelming murderous intent and destructive power.
That's also why I came to like him.
Because I knew the process.
Self-control and righteousness that go against even the constitution that is said to have been ordained by heaven.
The will to be born as a mine but choose to live as a human.
That was the reason why Yu Yun-ryong respected Bu Eun-seol.
Dawn began to break outside the window.
The blood-red moonlight slowly faded, and the warm morning sunlight began to illuminate Jammagak. The redness completely disappeared from Bu-eun-seol's eyes.
“Are you okay now?”
“Yes.”
Bu Eun-seol nodded.
“As always.”
“Then, now another plan will be added.”
“That’s right. I came here to discuss that anyway.”
Bu Eun-seol handed a booklet to Yu Yun-ryong.
What kind of person is the Empress Dowager there?
What kind of scheme is he using?
And how to take her down… …even some elaborate plan for the future.
“Phew.”
After reading everything, Yu Yun-ryong took a deep breath.
The Empress Dowager would never have dreamed of it.
That testing and touching the swelling this time was a fatal mistake.
That she was already destined to lose everything.
"Understood. I'll contact 'him' in advance and prepare to execute this plan perfectly."
"okay."
The two looked out the window in silence.
So on the border between darkness and light… …
They stood shoulder to shoulder, looking at the same place.
