Chapter 523
Episode 523
“Sujiaoju!”
Emperor Surama, who was frantically exchanging words with the elites of Cheonan Ganbu, let out an urgent cry.
He violently pushed away Yeo Hwayeon, the woman who blocked the front, and attacked Seo Ho-seon as if protecting the Sosalma Army.
“Tsk.”
Seo Ho-seon, who clicked his tongue once, bit down on Shin Hyeong without any regrets.
The black night clothes were torn by the sharp wheels.
‘It was dangerous.’
Seo Ho-seon looked down and looked at the cut front hair and internally sighed in relief.
If I had been a little later, my waist, not my clothes, would have been cut in half.
The Surama Emperor stands with his back to the groaning Sosalma Army, clutching the affected part.
The slashes unleashed by Wu Ga-jin, the fierce sword, struck him.
Damn it!
Even though I used my best self-defense skills to protect my body, my skin was torn and blood flowed.
From an objective perspective, Suramaje’s skills clearly surpassed Wu Jiajin’s.
However, various situational factors constantly forced him to feel inconvenient, making it impossible for him to use his strength properly.
It’s a situation where you can’t do anything about an opponent who is clearly of a lower rank, so you just get swayed here and there.
A thousand dollars arose inside me and I burst into anger.
He was so angry that he gritted his teeth and was about to launch a counterattack.
“I’m leaving like this.”
“……?”
“The Eight Demons’ Square has been completed.”
Sosalmagun, who stopped the bleeding from the severed shoulder by using Samadhi Evolution (Samadhi True Fire), spoke in a calm voice.
A calm appearance that makes it impossible to imagine that he lost his right arm, which was the lifeblood of a martial artist.
Suramaje’s expression distorted.
“I can’t just suffer and go on like this.”
“I understand the feeling of wanting to repay even if it is unfair. However, we must not let the hard work of Geodogwi (巨刀鬼) and Seolyegeom (舌銳劍), who performed their difficult roles, go to waste.”
“…….”
“Don’t be biased by your emotions. “Right now we are in a situation where we need to preserve our power as much as possible.”
Suramaje bit his lip tightly and nodded.
In my heart, I wanted to tear down and kill the entire group that attacked.
However, as Sosalma said, now was the time to give priority to rational judgment.
We could not afford to lose any more talented people who would become the cornerstone of the revival of the Demonic Cult.
“The demons are running away!”
“Don’t miss it!”

A chase team chasing after the retreating demonic cultists.
A different situation unfolded compared to the previous one, when the team unilaterally gained the upper hand and pushed forward.
The power of the completed Jin was terrifying.
The secret examination of the Demonic Cult is said to be comparable to the Plum Blossom Examination of the Hwasan Sect.
It didn’t take long for the people who were entangled in a melee to separate and the distance between the two sides widened.
“……why!”
A shout broke out.
It was because Hwadaerang stopped Geomhu, who was running out as if he wanted to see the end to the end.
Hwa Daerang is a deputy who has been entrusted with full authority by Cheonan Inspector General Yeonseon.
Disobeying his instructions was the same as disobeying Yeonsun’s instructions.
“The manager said never to overdo it. “If it is expected that our troops will suffer a lot of damage, it doesn’t matter if we just let go of the Sosalma Army.”
Deep regret appeared in Hwadaerang’s eyes.
However, I didn’t really want to just sit back and watch the demon cultists run away.
However, even though I had received a new request from my superior, I could not continue the pursuit that would require the members to sacrifice themselves.
‘Sosalma-kun. As you may have heard, he is not an ordinary person.’
It was an attack that took place at a moment when the enemy was not expecting it.
They even targeted a time when the demonic cultists were weakened due to the fatigue accumulated from traveling a long distance and the decline in morale due to unexpected variables.
Even though the troop gap was small, I thought I could annihilate them without much damage as the situational advantage was clear.
‘Even as the scale of damage increased rapidly, he did not lose his cool and made the optimal judgment and gave instructions to his subordinates.’
I even felt fear at the sight of him not losing his senses even though he was disabled.
I was so worried that if I sent someone like that alive, he might come back with great repercussions in the future.
‘Still, there’s nothing you can do. ‘My role is to perfectly carry out the manager’s instructions.’
A sigh escaped my lips and melted into the air.
* * *
“sorry.”
“Is there any reason to apologize? “I was the one who gave the order to do so.”
The headquarters of the Demonic Cult located in Shaanxi.
Hwa Dae-rang, who returned to the castle that had been completely occupied by the Allied Forces of Baekdo, carefully examined Yeon Yeon-un’s complexion.
I could tell just by looking at the splint on my arm.
The process of defeating the Demon Cultist must have been anything but smooth.
This is something I feel again, but his personality was also quite remarkable.
Even if he leaves the battlefield first and takes care of his injuries, no one will catch him, so why not join the main unit and check on the well-being of his subordinates?
“So, Sosalma-kun lost his right arm and became crippled?”
“yes. Unfortunately, I missed it…”
“This is truly an ideal result.”
“yes?”
Hwadaerang’s face became blank.
It was a face that seemed not to understand what it meant.
Afterwards, we were unable to eliminate a person who had a strong possibility of becoming a leader of our enemies, so why on earth is this an ideal outcome?
* * *
‘Seo Ho-seon did a great job.’
I stroked my chin and smiled contentedly.
If it were me in my past life, I would have sighed.
They said they were unable to completely remove the root of the problem.
However, as I went through many things to get to my current position, I ended up coming up with different opinions on the same issue.
The Demonic Cult, whose power expanded and overflowed, was like a disaster to the Baekdo martial arts world.
So, what about the Demonic Cult that has become extremely weak and is hiding in Heavenly Mountain?
Surprisingly, it becomes an excellent suppressor that binds and controls demons with rules.
‘There were times when I thought that the Demonic Cult should be exterminated for the sake of my safe future.’
To put it bluntly, it was impossible.
Why are the black people who commit evil acts against the powerless common people not eradicated?
It was extremely simple and straightforward.
As long as the concept of martial arts exists, there will inevitably be people who abuse it.
In the same context, as long as the concept of demons existed, demons had no choice but to continue to appear.
‘It would be possible to eliminate the group called the Demonic Cult from the world.’
Although there is a premise that you have to lead a large number of warriors to Mt. Heaven and fight a war where you have more to lose than to gain.
I repeat, the eradication of demons was impossible.
Whether it is a demon palace, a demon palace, or a demon palace.
It was obvious that even if the Demonic Cult was destroyed, a new martial arts force with a different name would emerge over time.
Even though they clearly know this, how many of the Murim forces will provide troops to head to Cheonsan?
Even I, who pride myself on being second to none in Jungwon Moorim in terms of personal connections, could not help but shake my head at this.
‘Besides, if you recklessly destroy the Demonic Cult.’
There was a risk that the unbridled horsemen would run away throughout the central plains to avoid pursuit.
If that happened, the entire world would suffer from measles.
One way or another, it was right to be satisfied at this point and declare the end of the war.
‘Seven of the eight great demon armies, the Cheonak army, and even the cult leader are dead, so the only absolute leader of the demonic cult that remains is the Surama Emperor.’
Basically, the disciples of the Demonic Cult were all people who had the qualities to one day rise to the absolute level.
If he didn’t have those qualities in the first place, he wouldn’t have even earned the right to compete for the position of the next religious leader.
Sosalmagun, who was evaluated as the least skilled among the four disciples in martial arts, was no exception.
‘But that Sosalma army was crippled by the West Lake Line.’
The motto raised by the Demonic Cult is strong self-respect.
No matter how small a warrior he was, his ability to lead people would one day reach its limits.
In the end, he had to raise his level and gain recognition from his followers, but since he lost his right arm, which was the lifeblood of a martial artist, it became very difficult.
It will be difficult to overcome the absolute wall, and even if you do, you will not be able to achieve a level higher than Suramaje.
Since the previous cult leader was a monster who was said to be the strongest of all time, he will be constantly compared.
‘Even so, the period of time in which the Demonic Cult, whose power has been greatly reduced, cannot be stabilized internally will be prolonged. This means….’
It means that a period of peace has arrived in the Jungwon martial arts world.
Of course, I might be thinking too optimistically.
Sosalmagun is a person who cannot be underestimated, and it is also true that the power of the Demonic Cult should not be looked down upon.
What can I do?
Now was the time to rejoice and toast the victory, not to waste our emotions in regret.
After finishing the report, Hwadaerang leaves the room.
“Boss.”
“Is there a problem.”
Sima Yun entered the room as if taking a shift and placed the armful of books he had brought in his arms on the table.
My eyes lit up as I scanned the cover of the book at the top.
“I have found and secured the items you mentioned.”
“Thank you for your effort.”
I immediately picked it up and looked at its contents.
A book containing records about the first founder of the Demonic Cult, Cheonma.
It was originally stored in Xinjiang’s Tianshan Mountain, but when Ma Jiao moved its headquarters to Shaanxi, many items were moved here.
The books here were also moved to Shaanxi in the same way.
The interior of the castle occupied by the Allied forces was currently in a state of chaos.
This was because many sects and families were in an uproar as many martial artists who had lost their skills due to the Demonic Cult were discovered in the library.
‘I didn’t forget and moved quickly to secure it. Should I call it Sima Yun?’
It was not just a record of the first Heavenly Demon.
All books recorded the history of the Demonic Cult and the culture and customs they enjoyed.
‘If we look at these things carefully and gather the information.’
Maybe I could get a clue.
How Dang Seo-yeon can overcome the limitations of being a poisonous person and have a child.
The leaders of the Allied Forces are desperate to regain or secure newly discovered martial arts vision, but this has been my interest from the beginning.
“I wanted to look through the contents first and organize what you needed, but I was so busy that I couldn’t do that.”
“it’s okay. From now on, just take a quick look. “There is plenty of time.”
“I will help.”
“Do you mind if I go and see it? I understand that the martial arts people of Gwiju are desperately looking for Sohyeop…” “
Did you know? I’m suffering so much that my head hurts. “I’ve taken care of all the urgent matters, so now I’d like to cool off for a while.”
I smiled and nodded.
It looks like you’ve been through quite a bit of trouble.
“…….”
After that, Simaun and I devoted ourselves to reading for a while.
Time passed incessantly.
When the world outside the window was tinged with twilight.
Unable to overcome the rising hunger, I closed the bookshelf and stood up. Samaun called out to me with a wave of his hand.
“Boss.”
“……?”
“Please look at this for a moment.”
