The Thousand-Slayer Swords Association-Episode 168
EP.168 Chapter Sixteen - Gathering, Meeting (10)
* * *
The meeting, which was full of incidents and accidents, is almost at its end..
The persistent coordination that has been going on for so long has finally come to an end, and the manpower that will immediately block the Cheonghae side has even started in that direction first..
We didn't do anything grand like the launch ceremony..
The masters of the squadron only quietly sharpened their swords and glared at the enemies threatening the midfield once again..
Right after the last meeting ended.
“Mukryong!”
King Mo Yong-geol approached Mok Ri-won..
Even though Mo Ri-won was puzzled, he took the gun and did his best..
“Meet the King.”
“That's enough. There is something I want to ask more than that..”
“what do you mean?”
Moyonggeol grinned..
For some reason, it was an uneasy smile..
“Please arrange a meeting with the girl king..”
This is truly a sudden request..
Mokriwon was momentarily dazed and pondered what answer to give..
Fortunately, help arrived in no time..
“Dude, what are you doing there?.”
Mile Seok tsked and approached..
Mok Riwon’s face became brighter..
It was the same with Mo Yong-geol..
“oh! the poor!”
“I don't mix.”
“Hey, can’t you just do this once? All the other guys are leaving.”
“Do you think it would be different from me??”
You also made a request to other experts..
Mok Riwon’s mouth was tightly shut..
Meanwhile, Mi-seok grabbed Mok-ri-won by the forearm and walked away from Mo Yong-geol and said..
“Remember. People who throw away healthy weapons and throw punches are mentally ill..”
At that moment, Ilwoon's face flashed through Mokriwon's mind..
‘Well, even you are wrong sometimes..’
In Mokriwon’s opinion, Ilun was completely normal..
*
“It's a mad dog.”
Wonmyeong said.
Ilwoon couldn't deny those words..
It's been about a week since he started training with Wonmyeong, and Ilwoon has been losing his self-control day by day because of Wonmyeong's ability to parry any attack..
“…sorry.”
“There is nothing to be sorry about. The more you try to shake off trouble, the more it sticks to you..”
Wonmyeong just smiled softly..
That made Ilwoon feel even more ashamed..
“Una.”
“Yes, boss.”
“Don't try to shake it off.”
Ilwoon bowed his head even deeper..
The teachings given by Wonmyeong over the past week were one..
Don't try to shake off your troubles.
Ilwoon still didn't know the meaning..
“…I'm telling you to accept it..”
“Yes, you have to let it go..”
“How is it different from brushing it off??”
“very different.”
Yuan Ming gave no further teachings..
He just stood upright, scattering energy waves again..
“come back again.”
Ilwoon’s expression frowned..
What can I do?.
There was only one thing Ilwoon could do: throw away the fist..
*
It was just at the end of the Cheonghae incident..
Wi Gwang-cheon finally left Cheonghae and stood in front of the main altar of the Heavenly Demon Church accompanied by the seven elders and the waiting demons..
“Well, you're back..”
Chinese words are poor to describe the grandeur of Mount Hibmandaesan..
These were the words given to Wi Gwang-cheon by the 7 elders when he entered the Heavenly Demon Church..
“How is it? Hapmandaesan returned.”
Well, it still feels distant..
To Wi Gwang-cheon, Mount Hibmandae was, then and still is, a distant space..
It wasn't a matter of scenery or grandeur..
The man's energy that was felt whenever he came here made Wi Kwang-cheon think of such a distant feeling..
‘Have you really finished closing?.’
Wei Guangchen’s expression became a little clouded..
There is no way to express the feelings rising up.
It was such a complex emotion, a deep emotion..
Wei Gwang-cheon took a deep breath and said, shaking off his emotions..
“…Don't go in.”
“honorary name.”
7The elder prostrated himself..
At the same time, the main gate of the headquarters opened..
“Reign of the Heavenly Demon! Manmaangbok!”
The voices that rang out simultaneously without any error were those of church members..
They were all prostrating and greeting Wei Guangtian..
Wei Guangtian walked across them indifferently..
“Clean yourself first. I will cover my wounds and go to the fortune-telling breakfast. The audience with the religious leader will come later..”
“yes.”
Wi Gwang-cheon returned to his palace after 15 years..
It was desolate.
To begin with, he had no hobby of collecting objects or treasures, so it was natural..
However, looking at the items that were there and still existing in the same form as I remembered, I could see that they had put a lot of effort into managing them..
“I meet you, Lord Sogyo..”
Two maids approached and bowed their heads..
They are young and young..
“Cheonggwa Hongeun?”
“Preparing your clothes.”
“call them.”
I had no intention of entrusting my body to someone I didn't even know..
The Church of the Heavenly Demon is a land of strength and self-respect, and it was impossible for someone to have antipathy towards him who returned as a loser..
Wei Guangchen had to be aware of them and their tricks..
“…honorary name.”
the maids left.
Wei Gwang-cheon closed his eyes gently..
‘My mind becomes clearer.’
Now it seems like all the energy has gone away..
If you replenish your demonic energy and drive away fatigue through fortune-telling, you will be able to regain all your past strength..
‘Nothing has changed.’
Even though he lost his star, he is still a leader..
He was still a demon who reached transcendence, and he is still strong..
In this new religion, there was only one man who could stop him..
‘When we get the stars back….’
I will definitely surpass him..
Wei Guangchen clenched his fists..
At that moment, Cheong and Hong entered the room..
“I meet you, Lord Sogyo..”
“I need to wash up. Get ready.”
“honorary name.”
Wei Gwang-cheon prepared an audience..
*
Three examinations have passed.
The sunset was setting outside the window..
It's been a long time since Wei Guangcheon donned his black long robe..
“egg plant.”
As he said that, Sword Demon Yeonrigan, who was waiting in front of the door, bowed his head and got out of the way..
It was a reasonable distance on the way to Daejeon..
Just enough to organize my thoughts.
“The six gates are?”
“We welcome the return of Lord Sogyo..”
“What's inside?”
“With the death of Oh Gang-ak, Geomhwamun (劒火門) is gnashing his teeth..”
“You idiots. the other side?”
“For now it's silence.”
“good night. The situation of the elders?”
“2The elder, 3rd elder, and 5th elder are acting suspicious..”
“They're still humans.”
I roughly draw a composition in my head..
Wei Guangchen went inside, thinking of a way to deal with them..
Kugu Palace, the gates of Daejeon open with sound.
Wei Guangchen felt that his breathing was becoming uncomfortable..
The first thing that touches the skin is the seven magic energy..
Each one was a test of monsters who had reached transcendence..
I brushed it off.
And as I took a step, dozens of transcendent energies clung to me like leeches..
It didn't even cope.
It was worthless..
Wei Guangtian finally reached a place twenty steps below the throne..
Only then was the tent covering the throne lifted..
Wei Guangchen immediately prostrated himself without even looking back..
I hit my head on the floor with a thud..
“Reign of the Heavenly Demon! Manmaangbok!”
Always say things that were directed at you.
Adding one more thing.
“Meet the teacher!!!”
Then there was silence..
Wi Gwangcheon felt like walking on thin ice..
‘I don't feel anything.’
There's definitely someone there.
But I couldn't feel the demonic energy..
If someone who doesn't know martial arts is sitting there, it should feel shabby, but since it doesn't even feel like that, there is only one answer that naturally comes to mind..
‘I went beyond transcendence.’
Learn magic and go beyond transcendence.
As far as Wei Guangcheon knew, the only person who reached that concept was the third great Heavenly Demon, Li Mubaek, who was the master of the Heavenly Death City..
The man in front of me just managed to break through that wall..
‘Calm….’
Without any stars or the protection of fate, he shook off the shackles of the devil with his own strength..
“…raise your head.”
It was a quiet voice..
It was also a voice filled with emptiness..
Wei Guangchen slowly raised his head..
was there.
The master of the Heavenly Demon Church who looked much younger than in Wei Guangtian's memories..
11Great Heavenly Demon Lee Seon.
That's him.
‘Bone metamorphosis)!’
It was a fantasy state where the body was reshaped and transformed into a more perfect body..
The man resting his chin on the throne had long and shiny hair..
The impression is neutral and the body is slim..
Still, everything comes together and I feel a sense of fear, as if I were facing the devil..
There was no more doubt now..
“Congratulations on reaching the point of getting rid of a demon.!”
“It's vain.”
Cheonma Lee Seon said.
“Everything has become useless. nothing is worth anything.”
He spoke in a voice full of emptiness..
“Even the division of realms.”
Wei Guangchen had to bow his head again..
Lee Seon continued and said.
“I will prepare for the light ship..”
Wi Gwangcheon was shocked..
It meant that I would become a deungseon, a hermit, and ascend to the world of seon..
In his case, he is a demon ship..
In other words, he is saying that he will leave this land..
“There is something to do before that..”
“…I will follow your orders.”
“go to midfield.”
Wei Guangchen’s fist was clenched..
Are you willing to help?.
It was an idea that came to mind for a moment, but Lee Seon's expectations were tragically shattered..
“There is just one, in midfield. A person who is not useless.”
Wei Gwang-cheon’s head suddenly lifted up..
Lee Seon made eye contact with Wi Gwangcheon with a blank expression on his face..
But Wei Guangtian could feel it..
He wasn't looking at himself. I just look somewhere further away.
What should I say?.
The moment Wei Guangchen realized that fact, he had to struggle in a storm of indescribable emotions..
‘Are you not asking anything?.’
Dan Cheon-hwa's betrayal, the robbery of Cheonsalseong, and the incident in the central plains..
Ethan wasn't curious about anything..
That fact finally hit me..
‘You don't value me anymore.’
Feelings of humiliation, anger, resentment, etc. arise, but then disappear..
It wasn't the moment to spew out such things..
Wei Guangchen squeezed his hands to suppress his trembling..
I lowered my head and hid my broken expression..
“…honorary name.”
He just spoke of loyalty..
Not yet.

A few days after the end of the great meeting, Duke Hyeon welcomed the returning shaman, Jang Mun-in..
“Meet Jang Moon-in.”
“Yes, Gong. Did anything special happen while you were away??”
“Yes, the shaman was as calm as always.”
Jang Moon-in smiled softly..
“I have received great grace from my Heavenly Majesty. Because I have a child like you as my disciple..”
“That's too much praise. How was the meeting??”
When Hyeon-gong asked, Jang Mun-in smiled and answered..
Hyeon-gong listened carefully to the whole story..
The more I do this, the more joy that can never be revealed rises within me..
‘It's almost now.’
A full-scale war begins.
I just happened to get intelligence on the Protestant religion..
‘The leader is coming.’
The midfield will be devastated..
Then you can go back.
You will be able to stop acting like a damn Taoist and go back to being Sima Gong..
“So our shaman will head south to Cheonghae. Of course you are together too. Let's do our best.”
Hyeonggong suppressed the feeling of wanting to scream and lowered his head..
“Yes, I will give it my all..”
I don't know what will happen to you that day.
As expected, the words that I couldn't say were stuck inside..
