Absolute Sword Sense Chapter 297

[Episode 96: The Best Demon of All Time (3)]

The castle of the Wulin Federation in Wuhan City, Hubei Province.

The atmosphere in the conference room of the headquarters building was extremely heavy.

Since they were still holding the funeral for Lord Mu-sang-do Jeong-cheon, the figures of the Murim League were wearing funeral attire.

No one could have predicted this situation.

Although this subjugation was claimed by the current leader, Musangdo Jeongcheon and his faction, the existing ruling class also predicted their victory.

But that expectation was shattered.

“It’s the best of all times… ha!”

Hoyang Jinin, the Plum Blossom White Sword of the Hwasan Sect and the second elder of the Martial Arts League, muttered as if he was astonished.

The title has already spread throughout the martial arts world in all directions.

The meaning of that title was very significant.

“This cannot happen. “It’s obvious that he must have done something.”

Jong-oh Jin-in, the new member of the Shaman faction, clicked his tongue in disbelief.

Mu Sangdo Jeong Cheon is called the best martial artist in the current political faction along with former martial arts leader Infinite First Sword Baek Hyang-muk.

His defeat was still a shock in itself.

“creation? “Jong-oh and Jin-in are saying this because they haven’t seen that monster.”

The sixth elder of the Wulin League, the head of the Hebei Paeng family, Paeng Yong-Yong, reprimanded him.

It was Paeng Yong-ja who went to the front line and competed with him directly.

Even though he was a top expert, he couldn’t survive even one move and failed.

“I’m not trying to blame the Fang family.”

“Huh. But how can you say it was a trick? “It’s not like I don’t know anything because I’m just sitting at my desk looking at my head, not at the wires.”

“You speak too much.”

His words made the elders who did not participate in the subjugation war feel uncomfortable.

Even so, opinions were divided in this subjugation war, and the two factions were growing dissatisfied with each other.

Eon Kwang-woon, the head of the Jinju family, opened his mouth.

“This situation can be said to be very serious. “The head of the family and the Great Hyeop of Hyeongsan Ilgeom competed against him, but he possessed a martial arts ability that could be considered the best in the world.”

“It’s the best in the world. “It’s absurd.”

Jeongyang Jinin, a member of the communal faction, denied this.

Even if the Blood Demon, the head of the Blood Cult, was strong in inaction, it could not be acknowledged as having the best inaction in the world.

Even so, the morale of the political faction, which had been weakened by the defeat in this war, will fall further.

Hyeongsan Ilgeom Jo Cheong-un opened his mouth with a sigh.

“The issue of whether to admit it or not has already passed. As many elders know, the blood religion has already won this war and the restoration of the area south of the Yangtze River is accelerating.”

“Hmm.”

As Jo Cheong-un said, the movement of blood religion was very fast.

In this war, the military power of five branches of the Wulin Federation was wiped out, and Yunnan Province, Guizhou Province, Hunan Province, Jiangxi Province, and Fujian Province have already fallen into the hands of the blood cult.

Many of the five provinces’ information networks had already been cut off.

This meant that the religious factions of the five provinces had begun to be liquidated.

“Nine branches are still alive and well.”

Eon Kwang-woon of the Jinju Eon family shook his head at Hoyang Jin-in’s words.

“We lost the war even with five branches and half of the headquarters. But can we say that we are in a safe situation now that the strength of the nine branches is intact?”

Even though the nine branches and headquarters, including Sichuan Province, Gansu Province, Anhui Province, Henan Province, Zhejiang Province, Jiangsu Province, Shandong Province, Hebei Province, Shanxi Province, and Liaoning Province, are still in good standing, the situation was different from before.

As a result, Hyeongyo had the requirements to unite the forces of the four factions.

“Besides, the movements of the peerless star are unusual.”

“Hmm.”

The elders’ complexions became heavy.

It is said that Wu Shuangseong has retreated, but this move south has made it clear.

Aside from the blood religion and the Sa Sect, they also have a huge enemy in the north.

At that time, the vice leader, Yeolwangpae, who was quietly watching their conversation, opened his mouth.

“I did it myself, so please wait.”

“What do you mean, using your hands?”

“I sent Danju of the Meng Haodan to Wushuang City.”

“Meng Haodan’s sobriety? “Aren’t you the grandson of the vice-lord?”

The leader of Meng Haodan was Jin Yong, the grandson of Jin Gyun, the king of kings.

Everyone could not hide their surprise when they heard that he had been sent.

To their words, Sima Zhongtian, a military commander who returned from suspicion four months ago, responded on their behalf.

“As you all know, Jin Seongbaek, the Heartless Wind God, became the lord of the Musou Castle and took power.”

“What does that matter? “Aren’t Jin Seongbaek, the current ruling class of Mussangseong, and Wang Cheoil, the sect leader of the Neptune Sect, not at all friendly to the original faction?”

“That’s right. However, Meng Haodan’s Danzhu is not like that.”

“Isn’t that true?”

I asked about Amifa’s clove situation.

At this, Sima Zhongtian smiled and said.

“Danju Jin Yong of the Meng Haodan is a disciple of Heartless Wind God Jin Seongbaek. “Because I had a relationship with him, I went to resolve this situation and promote re-alliance.”

“Hoo. “Is that true?”

“Now that I think about it, I think I’ve heard of it.”

“Nobu heard it too. “Lee Jeong-gyeom, the head of the Blue Dragon Party, and the leader of the Meng Haodan went to take the exam for the Poongyeong Eight-Ryu Sect.”

At their reaction, Vice Lord Yeolwangpaedo Jingyun raised his eyebrows.

When my grandson did something like that on his own, I was furious, but it turned out to be a godsend, to the point where I could say it was a foresight.

Even if he was a heartless god of wind, would he treat his disciples at all costs?

Moreover, due to this incident, Commander Li Sima Zhongxian was convinced that no matter how unfriendly the ruling class of Wushuangseong was to the Wulin Alliance, they would have no choice but to join hands to keep the blood religion in check.

Now there was only one thing left to do.

Jin Gyun, the leader of the Ten Kings, nodded his head as he looked at Master Li Sima Zhongxian.

Sima Zhongxian opened his mouth as if he had been waiting for this.

“I was planning to talk about it after the funeral, but the situation is getting more and more urgent, so I’d like to make a suggestion to the elders here.”

“proposal?”

“What do you mean?”

“The position of head of this organization cannot remain vacant forever. “I think the elders here will agree with that.”

Everyone nodded at Sima Zhongxian’s words.

Although there was a vice-lord, his position was strictly to assist the lord.

Sima Zhongxian continued speaking.

“I propose that the current deputy leader, Yeolwangpaedo Jingyun Daehyup, take over the position of leader once the funeral procedures for the current leader, Jeongcheon Daehyup, are completed.”

“You mean the Paedo of Kings?”

At those words, Hoyang Jinin, the Plum Blossom Baekgeom, asked back.

Judging from his tone of voice and facial expression, it seemed like he was not pleased with it.

Jeongyang Jinin, a long-time member of the communal faction, spoke to Hoyang Jinin.

“Why are you asking such a question? “Isn’t there anyone other than Jingyun Daehyup who can take on the position of leader in this situation?”

“I agree with this situation.”

He also helped with the Amifa clove incident.

These were the people who had supported Jingyun of the Yeolwangpaedo since the election of the leader.

At the words of the two elders, the factions that supported the deceased current leader Musangdo Jeongcheon also nodded because they had no suitable alternative.

Then someone opened their mouth.

“Nobu thinks differently.”

He was General Commander Bang Deok-hyeon.

Excluding the vice leader, he was the person with the greatest influence in the martial arts league.

When he stepped forward, the vice leader, Yeolwangpae, spoke with a somewhat stern expression, as if Jingyun was uncomfortable.

“It seems that the general military thinks he is inadequate.”

“Is that possible? “Gyungyun Daehyup also has sufficient qualifications to be a leader.”

“What kind of opinion do you have that makes you say that?”

The atmosphere in the conference room became heavy due to his serious question.

Nevertheless, Commander Bang Dehyeon didn’t care at all and parted his lips.

“I think the election of the leader position should be fair.”

As he made such a hasty move, Master Li Sima Zhongxian’s eyes narrowed.

‘As expected, you are against it.’

He was suspicious of his one-time teacher, Commander-in-Chief Bang Deok-hyeon.

However, it had not been long since he had been reinstated and no conclusive evidence was found, so he was left alone.

If the leader was elected this time, the plan was to naturally oust him.

‘He’s not the kind of guy who should be taken lightly.’

He was a total military in name and expression.

He didn’t think his plan would go unnoticed.

I couldn’t let him stay there.

Sima Zhongxian opened his mouth.

“It is a position with no alternative. “How can we discuss fairness?”

“How can there be no alternative?”

“In this situation, where the leader Jeongcheon Daehyup shaman’s clan Jinin is not even there, the only person who can deal with the blood demon is the vice leader Jingyun Daehyup.”

This is a reality that no one can refute, so everyone remained silent.

The only person who could handle the Blood Demon’s inaction was Jin Gyun, who could be said to be one of the Eight Great Masters.

Sima Zhongxian glared at Commander Fang Dexian, asking him to refute.

Then Bang Deok-hyeon smiled and said.

“Being called the best demon of all time means that the blood demon of the time has surpassed the realm of superhumans.”

At his words, Gyun Gyun’s expression hardened horribly.

Even he didn’t expect that inaction would be discussed here.

Before the parties involved.

Sima Zhongxian spoke in a sharper voice.

“Are you really disparaging the radishes of the Great Fungus Association?”

“……Hehehe, why are you being so sharp, Master Sima? “Is it because there’s a reason why it shouldn’t be the Great Fungus Association?”

Sima Zhongxian kept his mouth shut at Fang Dekhyeon’s words.

‘Old raccoon.’

It was because I thought that if I got excited here, I could fall for his trick.

Commander-in-Chief Bang Deok-hyeon was a man who could never let down his guard.

After calming himself for a moment, Sima Zhongxian spoke.

“…Then who can take on the position of leader of the main clan and deal with the blood religion?”

In response to that question, Commander-in-Chief Bang Deok-hyeon spoke in a meaningful voice.

“Isn’t it true?”

Everyone was puzzled by those words.

Who on earth are you trying to talk about?

Bang Deok-hyeon continued speaking.

“It hasn’t been that long since he retired from active duty, but he is the best swordsman in the faction who personally cut off the head of the previous blood demon in the Battle of Jeongsa 20 years ago.”

Everyone’s expressions hardened at those words.

Vice leader Yeolwangpae and Jingyun were the same.

This was because I immediately knew who he was talking about.

Sima Zhongxian said in a trembling voice.

“Are you really talking about the former leader?”

Former leader.

Infinite First Sword Baekhyang Ink.

The punishment ended with him being resigning from his position in recognition of his contributions, but didn’t he commit a serious crime by learning the blood demon’s martial art, Hyeolcheondaeragong?

‘What kind of trick is this?’

Sima Zhongxian could not understand this situation.

The person who brought this to light and personally carried out the impeachment was General Bang Deok-hyeon.

Now he was advocating for the reinstatement of the former leader whom he had driven out.

Jeongyang Jinin, a member of the communal faction, intervened.

“The former leader committed a serious crime and resigned!”

General Commander Bang Deok-hyeon laughed at his words and said,

“exactly. “You touched the blood demon’s martial arts skills.”

I asked as if I couldn’t understand Aipa’s clove situation.

“Amitabha Buddha. Didn’t the Commander-in-Chief personally spearhead the impeachment? “But now you’re suddenly mentioning the former leader.”

“Didn’t you say you wanted a stable alternative?”

“The former leader touched the blood demon’s martial arts. How can you give a person who is corrupted by fraud the right to the position of leader, which can be said to be a symbol of political faction?”

Even Namgung Mujin, the head of the Namgung family who did not take sides, came out against it.

In an instant, the conference room became noisy.

As such, the restoration of the former leader was a complex issue.

‘What kind of trick is this? Even if the former leader returns, his position will be shaken.’

It was Baek Hyang-muk, the former leader who stepped down due to his impeachment.

I found out about it while talking to Baek Hyang-mook.

The former leader was also suspicious of him and was digging into him.

But I had no idea what kind of ruse this was.

‘We must oppose it. If I get dragged down by his moves….’

That was right then.

-thud! The table

broke in half and the noisy conference room suddenly became quiet.

The person who made the table like this was none other than the vice leader, Yeolwangpaedo Jingyun.

Everyone’s eyes turned to him.

Jingyun opened his mouth.

“Are you saying that you can’t deal with a blood demon unless you are a former leader who committed a serious crime?”

There is anger in his voice, and I can even feel the will to fight.

‘this.’

I didn’t know that Jingyun would fall for the provocation.

He also has such high pride in his radish that he is called an expert in the eight major fields.

In the meantime, it was even more strange that Bang Deok-hyeon did not get angry because his pride was openly touched in front of the masters of each faction.

He looks like he’s going to break Bang Deok-hyeon’s neck at any moment.

However, Bang Deok-hyeon smiled and said, as if he was not afraid of this at all.

“Even though I committed a serious crime, isn’t the situation like that?”

“Current situation?”

“If even the vice-lord is defeated by the blood demon, the reputation of the Jeongdo Martial Alliance will fall into the abyss.”

Everyone let out a small groan at the undeniable words.

The position of the Murim Alliance was already shaken considerably as the current leader, Musangdo Jeongcheon, was defeated and killed by a blood demon of the time.

Commander-in-Chief Bang Deok-hyeon was pointing out this.

Even Jinin, the plum blossom sword and Hoyang who supported the former leader, spoke as if he was embarrassed.

“One total military. There is not enough justification to reinstate the former lord…..”

“It is enough to create a justification. For example, the former leader, who foresaw the revival of the blood religion, discovered the martial arts skills of the blood demons.”

“…………”

No one could refute the words of Bang Deok-hyeon, the unstoppable commander-in-chief.

They too were shaken from the moment the former leader was mentioned.

If we leave aside serious crimes, it was Baek Hyang-muk, the former leader, who ushered in the era of strong political factions for over twenty years.

Moreover, his inaction was acknowledged by everyone.

Sima Zhongxian, the commander of Li, urgently sent a message to his vice-major Jin Gyun.

[Vice leader. This is a general military plan. I can’t fall for any more provocations….]

However, before he could finish his speech, Jingyun held out his hand and signaled for him to stop.

Then he opened his mouth in a serious voice.

“Okay. “I think it would be a good idea to decide who can truly deal with the blood demon.”

“Lord!”

Despite Sima Zhongxian’s shouting, Jin Gyun continued speaking without any hesitation.

“Let’s call the former leaders and have them publicly elected. “Wouldn’t you be dissatisfied if this time, instead of voting, we decided the position of leader through martial arts competition?”

At Jin Gyun’s words, Commander Bang Deok-hyeon’s mouth slightly turned up.

Sima Zhongxian saw this and sighed inwardly.

In the end, it came true as he intended.

Gyun Gyun, whose pride as a military officer had been shattered, was not in a position to listen to anyone trying to stop him.

‘I guess I should consult with my former leader.’

The only person who could make a rational decision in this situation was Baek Hyang-muk, the former leader.

Bang Deok-hyeon said he was satisfied that he had achieved what he wanted.

“I hope you have a good time. I praise the decision of the Jin Daehyup. If the Jin Daehyup defeats the previous leader and is recognized as Mu, everyone will follow without a word.”

I thought the meeting would end like this.

Then someone opened their mouth.

“If the right person to deal with a blood demon is worthy of being a leader, isn’t there one more person worthy of him?”

“Elder Kwak?”

He was none other than Gwak Hyeong-jik of Bukyeongdoseong.

He was selected as the new elder when Musang was inaugurated as the leader of Jeongcheon.

It was said that he had been selected as a new elder, but he had not stood out for a long time. When he came forward for the first time, everyone looked at him with puzzlement.

It was the same for Commander-in-Chief Bang Deok-hyeon.

Bang Deok-hyeon asked, puzzled.

“…Who on earth exists like that?”

Gwak Hyeong-jik of Bukyeongdoseong answered that question.

“I believe there is no one more qualified than this person.”

Vice leader Jingyun frowned and asked, hearing his confident voice.

“Who are you talking about?”

“That person has competed with both the Ten Kings and the Great Jingyun.”

“Compete with me?”

“He once competed with King Hyukcheon and even killed two of the four great evildoers, Cheolsu-ryeon of the Evil Heart Slayer and Jang Mun-ryang, the Demon Slayer.”

‘!?’

Jingyun’s eyes shook at those words.

Because I understood who he was talking about.

In the current martial arts faction, there was only one person who achieved this great feat.

“No way…”

“Are you talking about him?”

Everyone was in an uproar.

No one could think of this person as an alternative.

That was because he was too young and his whereabouts had been unknown recently.

Commander-in-Chief Bang Deok-hyeon, who had been relaxed because his wishes had been achieved until now, shook his head and said.

“You are too young.”

“Aren’t you looking for someone to deal with the blood demon?”

“…That’s true, but.”

“He is the only one who defeated the blood demon of his time, known as the greatest demon of all time.”

-Roaring!

A noisy conference hall.

North Yeongdoseong Kwak Hyeong-jik stood up from his seat, took the gun, and said.

“I recommend Sogeomseon Sounhwi as the leader.”
