#223 Two-Sided War
Lee Chu-ryang and Lee Ha-ryong.
The two brothers were sitting facing each other at the table.
From the same spot where I was looking at Lee Chun-bong a few days ago.
─From now on, you are candidates for the position of the Young Leader.
A meeting place where all the elders and magicians gather.
Lee Chun-bong suddenly made a shocking statement, saying that he had to go to Namhae.
It’s been a few months since the new leader was installed. But suddenly, he was announced as the next leader, and everyone was taken aback and looked at Lee Chun-bong.
Lee Chun-bong shrugged his shoulders and replied.
─Everyone lives in the world of martial arts and pretends not to know anything.
─The world of martial arts is one where you don’t know if you’ll wake up alive tomorrow or not, so of course, from the perspective of the religion, you have to prepare for what’s next.
─And you know, I don’t have long to live.
The eyes of the demon cult members grew wide.
Everyone in the church knew that Lee Chun-bong’s life was running out due to the remarks of Lee Teng-pyeong and the saint.
But no one felt it.
How can you believe that the cult leader is currently flying in the sky and catching dragons to kill them, and that he will die next year?
Moreover, since Lee Chun-bong himself had never properly mentioned it, the general opinion was that it was just a malicious rumor spread by the previous cult leader.
─Well, if I live long enough, I can continue to be the leader.
─But since we don’t know what will happen in human affairs, for now I will appoint you two as candidates to succeed me.
The congregation looked back at the two brothers with their mouths open.
When Lee Chun-bong went to the central plains, he took him with him, gave him some training, and sent him here.
The members of the Demonic Cult were all a little surprised at how the prayers of the two who returned were stronger and their thoughts deeper than when they were on Marongdo.
Of course, I laughed because there were some things that changed in a strange way that was typical of Lee Chun-bong.
─Maybe everyone felt it?
The following is Lee Chun-bong’s natural and witty remark.
When the Demonic Cult was taking root in Guangdong Province, Li Chun-bong was traveling around Guizhou Province.
And when progress was slowing down, he sent the two brothers to Guangdong Province at the right time to enable the two factions to move efficiently.
Thanks to that, the outside of Gwangju has been successfully infiltrated to some extent, and now only Gwangju remains.
In the end, it was Lee Chu-ryang and Lee Ha-ryong who created the new nest of the Demonic Cult.
In the meantime, everyone felt closer to the two than to the distant leader, Lee Chun-bong.
Both of them were able to grow a little more while actually moving in the midst of the Demonic Cult’s crisis.
─Guangdong is our new nest.
─Gwangju is our new center.
─Therefore, I will make the one who has secured his position better among the two the sub-religious leader.
After that, the Demonic Cult became faster once again.
Before Lee Chun-bong, the Magical School and the Elders, who had been busy pointing their swords at each other and knocking each other down in the era of equal equality, were now running to take over Gwangju a little more.
“Why else would my mother make ice with a small amount of magic every day?”
Lee Chuliang took a deep breath.
Elder Wei Yanlin.
She, who was so cold and indifferent during her time in Ma-ryong-do that it was difficult to even talk to her, now goes out to the streets of Gwangju every day.
The back of him as he goes, saying that he will improve the perception of children who hesitate at the name of the Demonic Cult.
As a person of this level, I couldn’t help but have many thoughts.
Lee Ha-ryong also nodded with a bitter smile.
“The same goes for us. Lord Dokjeongmun has completely changed his clothes.”
“Your Majesty the King?”
“The two of them, including Baekgolmunju, wear white robes every day.”
The Magical School is a fiercely competitive school with no flaws, but if you were to pick the places that the public would be most afraid of, it would be the Dokjeong School, which deals with poison, and the Baekgol School, which mainly deals with corpses and uses sorcery.
You never know when or where poison might come from, and who would like to deal with the dead?
As such perceptions made it difficult for the Demonic Cult to establish itself in Guangdong, the Dokjeongmunju Jo Mi-mi and the Baekgolmunju Ak Cho-ryang completely changed their clothes.
If the two of them wear white clothes, what will the disciples do?
Instead of the dull uniform I always wore, I had no choice but to change into bright uniforms and wash up well before going out.
Lee Chu-ryang smiled faintly as he recalled the two of them.
“Well, both of you are quite beautiful and tall.”
“It was a bit embarrassing because it suited me better than I thought, but it made me popular.”
Lee Ha-ryong nodded.
Since the Muyeongsalmun cannot be used due to its nature, the only thing that can be used is the Samhyeolmun.
The Three Blood Gate hasn’t really changed.
It’s only natural, since there are a lot of big guys who use swords.
However, when Dokjeongmun and Baekgolmun, who had such a bad reputation, moved so actively, the reaction changed significantly.
It is no exaggeration to say that eight-tenths of the territory outside of Guangdong was directly occupied by the Dokjeongmun and Baekgolmun.
“Brother, didn’t you notice anything strange?”
Lee Ha-ryong nodded heavily to Lee Chu-ryang’s question.
“Even though it’s on the outskirts of Gwangju, it’s still a no-man’s land.”
“Yes. It’s strangely silent.”
“The black clown?”
“There was no particular reaction. They just left it alone unless it was their core business location.”
The two narrowed their eyebrows.
It was very strange.
The difference between a sect and a family is that the Gwangdong Jin family has been too hands-off. Furthermore, the Black Night Clan collapsed in Gwangju last time, and there has been no response since then.
If you get hurt, you get revenge.
The two felt a strange feeling at Gwangdong Jinga’s actions that went against the common sense of the martial arts world.
“Brother, aren’t they preparing something big?”
“Like what?”
“Like the Apostles.”
Lee Ha-ryong immediately shook his head.
Lee Chu-ryang was able to understand it right away.
Jangsa’s Cheonmuhakkan.
I used to wonder why Lee Chun-bong went to Cheonmu Academy to cause such a commotion and manipulate the kids, but then I realized it at that moment.
“Don’t you know? We did it together.”
Cheonmuhak-gwan could be called the heart of the Apostolic Union, as it was where the core people of the Nammurim Apostolic Union gathered.
Knowing the people of the Seven Apostles I met there, I know they won’t move recklessly.
There.
“The cult leader even formally conveyed a message to the inspector.”
“At the time, I thought, why bother gathering evidence and just saying meaningless things? But you had a bigger picture.”
The two brothers looked like giants to Lee Chun-bong.
When the Dragon Island collapsed, the two of them only thought about surviving, but they couldn’t think of anything specific about what to do or how to do it.
But Lee Chun-bong was different.
He went to Cheonmu Academy himself to divert the attention that was focused on the Demonic Cult.
Afterwards, he developed a close relationship with the Apostolic Union of the Cheonmu Academy and informed them of the atrocities committed by the Gwangdong Jin family, which later delayed support at the Apostolic Union level.
“If you look at it that way, isn’t the escape route also a hole to run through?”
Lee Ha-ryong nodded at Lee Chu-ryang’s words.
It would be good if the Demonic Cult took root in Guangdong Province, but if not, it would have to go somewhere else.
But where in the Central Plains would they go?
Also, if things go out of control and all seven families of the Sado clan gather in Guangdong Province to punish the Demonic Cult, there will be no escape.
At that time, the ones shining were Guizhou City and Cheondorim, which were not included in the Apostolic Union.
Since Lee Chun-bong saved them, he may not be able to settle in Gwiju, but he will at least help them escape.
“There are no gaps.”
Lee Ha-ryong muttered quietly.
“And it’s creepy. Didn’t the cult leader plan all this when the Dragon Clan was about to collapse?”
Lee Chu-ryang shook his head.
I couldn’t even tell how far I had to look to see if the plan was going to come to fruition.
Although Lee Chun-bong’s unbelievably powerful martial arts skills are amazing, I had a thought that perhaps the biggest fear was the big picture of ruling the world.
at that time.
Rattling─.
The door that the two were in opened.
A demon came in hurriedly. He pointed outside, out of breath.
Hwaruk─.
I saw a firework.
The place they settled was a slum in Gwangju.
It’s a place where people live so close together that even a small fire can cause a big problem.
“It’s the enemy!”
“… … !”
The two looked at each other’s faces and ran outside.
“oh my!”
“Oh my god, there’s fire!”
“And there are weird guys running around with knives!”
There are screams and shouts.
The fire suddenly grew so big that it rose high into the sky as if someone had poured oil on it, and the demons moved to put out the fire first.
At that moment, Lee Ha-ryong shouted.
“Listen everyone─!!”
A scream filled with tremendous internal energy swept through the surroundings.
In the silence of that moment.
Puuuuuuuuuuuu─.
The horn of the Demonic Cult sounded, signaling the coming of the enemy.
“This is the Black Death Squad.”
Another warrior came and reported urgently.
Lee Chu-ryang was impressed by that sound.
“Are you saying that those crazy guys from Gwangdongjin released their blackmail force into Gwangju?”
“That’s why it’s on fire like that.”
“This is their land, why!?”
Lee Ha-ryong shook his head slowly.
And he pulled out the sword with his one remaining arm.
“I guess that’s because there are so many crazy people in the world that we can’t understand.”
“Phew. That’s true.”
The two brothers were quickly split in half.
He gathered the fighting force of the magicians and elders scattered throughout Gwangju and rushed towards the Heuksaldae.
midnight.
Between the Demonic Cult and the Guangdong Jin Family.
A war broke out.
* * *
That visual inspection.
Lee Chun-bong was standing on the shore.
In front of him were Jin Cheong-cheon, Gu Wolmyeong, and Geom Hou, and behind him were Geom Gak’s disciples holding torches.
“I am the leader of the Demonic Cult, Li Chun-bong, and I will be the new ruler of Guangdong Province.”
Lee Chun-bong looked back north for a moment.
As the Muyeoldan was completed, an intuition that grew without me knowing began to ring.
It could simply be that the wind is unusually cold for a summer night, but something may have happened at the Magyo in Gwangju.
But Lee Chun-bong didn’t care.
‘Kids can do anything.’
Although there are still many shortcomings, Lee Chu-ryang and Lee Ha-ryong have now become quite excellent adults.
The demonic cult that wasted its energy trying to eat each other has disappeared.
When we extend our power outward and deal with external enemies, we will work together. A divided Demonic Cult is easy, but a united Demonic Cult is scary.
Lee Chun-bong, who once dealt with the Demonic Cult, could confirm that.
That’s why Lee Chun-bong decided to do what he had to do.
Sreung─.
Lee Chun-bong pulled out his glass sword.
The energy emanating from the Bukmyeong Samgeukpae began to shine like a sword.
A single ray of starlight twinkles across the black sea and the black sky.
Hooo …
There, around Lee Chun-bong, the sword of the first sword master, ‘Jeolhae’, is floating like the wind.
【This is exciting.】
Lee Chun-bong smiled brightly at Simma’s voice.
It must have been frustrating to see the outside from within oneself but not be able to move freely in the world.
That guy seems pretty excited to have a sword that he can move like his own limbs.
Two swords.
One is a person.
The other one is a dragon.
Even if they didn’t know the detailed logic of the miracle, those who watched felt a sense of wonder rising from the depths of their hearts.
“And now.”
Swish─.
Lee Chun-bong put down his sword.
The direction where you can feel the energy of the dragon, Haesingul.
He said, pointing to the northwest of the reference point.
“I kill the sea god.”
“… … !”
Hoooowoow─.
Lee Chun-bong’s body came to mind.
Guwolmyeong also took a step forward, saying he would go with her, but she shook her head.
“It won’t take long. I feel like I can beat anyone I face today.”
The end of the Muyeoldan.
And Simma, who holds the sword.
Lee Chun-bong flew away, drawing a trajectory like a single star. Geom-hu clasped his hands together toward Lee Chun-bong, as if making a wish to a shooting star.
“Please come back safely.”
One by one like that.
With the prayers of all the swordsmen, Lee Chun-bong headed towards the sea god who was awakening in the South Sea.
