Episode 790 Either live like a dog or die like a wolf. (5)
“This….”
Even so, the Black Dragon King, who had been caught in the crosshairs of a situation that was not going well, was clearly furious. Just as he was about to roar with flames pouring out of his eyes, Brother Cheonmyeon came in with a calm voice.
“My head is falling off…”
He grinned.
“Are you saying the defeated army is going to cut off our heads?”
Jang Il-so also responded with a smile.
“You are saying scary things. “Is that possible?”
The gentle eyes of Brother Cheon-myeon turned to Jang Il-so.
“If we do that, who is going to cut our throats?”
“You’re probably not asking because you don’t know. “If you are here without understanding that, there is no reason for me to talk to you.”
“Hahaha….”
The laughter did not stop, but an eerie murderous spirit flowed from the monk Cheonmyeon’s eyes.
His face looks infinitely good-natured, but in fact, among the leaders of the Shinjuo faction, the one who is said to be the most cruel is Brother Cheonmyeon. Due to his nature in handling information, he does not consider torturing and killing people to be sins.
“You’re being too lazy, you loser.”
“Hmm.”
Jang Il-so silently poured another drink into his glass.
The moment Brother Cheon-myeon’s eyes narrowed at an act that could be felt as disregard, Jang Il-so opened his mouth.
“At first, eighteen houses along the Yangtze River.”
“….”
“Maybe next time… Black Ghost.”
Godfather Mangeum’s eyebrows twitched slightly.
It is not common for him, who is always insensitive, to show such emotions. That brief movement told him how uncomfortable he was right now.
“After that, everyone’s room. Lastly, Hao Mun.”
“….”
“We will be hunted one after another and everyone will lose their heads. Or you can give up everything you have and become a fugitive.”
thud!
The Black Dragon King struck Datak.
“Who dares to do that?”
“Gubfile Ilbang.”
In response to the answer that came out without the slightest hesitation, the Black Dragon King closed his mouth as if he was at a loss for words.
“….”
“And… maybe even Cheon Yu-maeng.”
Crash.
The Black Dragon King, whose face was contorted like an evil beast, glared at Jang Il-so and said.
“Let’s say that’s the case with old file rooms. But does that mean we have to discuss all that nonsense?”
“Something?”
Jang Il-so smiled and looked straight at the Black Dragon King.
“Is there anyone who guarantees that any of these can take on Tianyu Meng alone?”
“….”
“Who can deal with Tian Yu Meng, who has joined the Four Heavenly Dang Family and the Nanman Beast Palace and the North Sea Ice Palace… and even the Green Forest? “The eighteen houses of the famous Yangtze River?”
“This guy…”
“Times have changed, Black Dragon King. The names of the eighteen houses of Yangtze River Waterway no longer cause fear in the world.”
“hmm.”
Godfather Mangeum shook his head.
“It’s definitely impossible to deal with Tianyu Meng alone. However, it is an ideal theory that Cheonwoomaeng can gather his strength as one. First of all, they are very distant from each other and are loosely intertwined. “It doesn’t happen that all of Cheonwoo’s power is concentrated in one place.”
“You are correct. However…”
The corners of Jang Il-so’s mouth quirked up.
“The mere existence of blindness is a problem.”
“….”
“As you probably know, if it weren’t for Cheon Woo-maeng, Shaolin and Shaman would never have moved.”
Godfather Mangeum shook his head as if he could not deny it.
“I guess so. “There is nothing to be gained.”
Defeating the Yangtze River is definitely something that will bring fame and favor.
However, places like Shaolin and the shaman Namgungse do not need any more fame. That only has meaning for those who haven’t built it up yet. There is no reason for them to covet fame and public favor once again, as their reputation is exaggeratedly high.
“But if you have a blind eye, things are different.”
It is as if a substitute product has been created.
If there is no Cheonwoo-maeng, no matter how dirty and unpleasant it is, everyone has no choice but to cling to the nine factions and the five major families in the end. Because they are the only sect that can deal with the Sa sect and stop them.
But now you don’t have to be obsessed with them anymore. This is because Cheon Woo-maeng has already shown sufficient strength and proactivity.
“Murim Temple is always repeating the same thing. When two strong political factions compete for power, direct war does not occur. For example, shamans and Shaolin have never fought to the point of killing each other. Instead…”
Jang Il-so reveals his teeth.
“I came looking for game.”
“….”
“There are two ways to show that I am the stronger tiger. One is to fight and win, and the second is to prove it by biting and killing more wolves.”
“…This is because we are wolves.”
“That’s right.”
Jang Il-so pushed the empty drinking glasses next to him forward one by one.
“First, the Yangtze River Waterway.”
Jang Il-so’s index finger gently pressed down on the glass in front of him.
Jjaeng!
The glass cracked, making a noise like a sharp scream.
“next?”
“….”
“There is no point in betting on whose head will be cut off first. If you’re going to bet, something else is more fun. Which faction will my head be stuck in? Is it Shaolin or Shaman, or Hwasan or Tang Gao? “Cluck, cluck, cluck.”
Jang Il-so chuckled and slowly looked at the three people.
“I’ll bet on Shaolin. Where will you all live?”
“….”
No one could bring themselves to open their mouths right away.
This is because I know that Jang Il-so’s words are not empty lies.
Not only the Black Dragon King, who was directly under attack, but also those who were watching the entire process felt a sense of extreme crisis.
“so?”
Mangeum Godfather cut it coldly.
“Get rid of useless editorials. Because it’s a waste of time. So what are you going to do?”
“We must join forces.”
“With all this trash?”
The faces of the Black Dragon King and the Heavenly Face Master distorted when they heard that it was unfiltered trash.
“It would be good to keep that snout under control, Mangeum Godfather. “Unless you want to end up dead with your tongue cut out.”
“Or it would be better to cut off the limbs and make them dog food.”
Bloody voices came out, but Godfather Mangeum spoke without blinking.
“Anyone can think of a union. But no one can enforce it. “There’s no way we can trust each other.”
“…That is correct.”
“Just seeing your face makes my stomach turn.”
Safa hates political factions.
But more than that, I hate Sapa too. This is because the people who fought, bit, and stabbed far more than the political faction are the same faction.
“It wouldn’t be a bad idea to take this opportunity to rip off all of your heads and consume their power.”
“That’s a good opinion too.”
The murderous spirit that the three people unleashed in an instant filled the room. It was a grueling life that would upset not only ordinary people but even experts.
One that moment.
“Hahahahahahahahahaha!”
Jang Il-so burst into laughter as the pavilion left.
“Ahahahahahahahahahaha!”
The three people’s fierceness disappeared in an instant as they hit the table, shed tears, and laughed. Everyone’s eyes were focused on Jang Il-so.
“…What’s so funny?”
When the question came up, Jang Il-so raised his hand and gently wiped away the tears that had flowed from the corners of his eyes.
“iced coffee. sorry. Oh my… It’s so funny, I have to be able to bear it.”
“I asked what was so funny.”
“Wouldn’t it be weirder if it wasn’t funny?”
Jang Il-so said with a still smile on his face.
“How can I not laugh at the bug-like creatures that growl and fight with each other, not even realizing that my feet are already immersed in the swamp? These pathetic things are the leaders of the Xinjuo Clan! Ha ha ha ha ha!”
“…What did you just say?”
Jang Il-so’s red lips twisted.
“why? “Did I say something wrong?”
“….”
“Even animals, when their lives are in danger, unite regardless of their natural enemies. But do people bring personal grudges into matters where their lives are at stake?”
“….”
Even the tone of voice that had maintained politeness on the surface suddenly disappeared. Jang Il-so revealed his pure white teeth.
“Resentment, hatred, and all the trivial emotions you enjoy exist because you are attached to them. After you die, grudges have no meaning. “The most important thing for humans is not resentment, respect, or utility.”
Everyone could not bear to refute it and kept their eyes on Jang Il-so.
Jang Il-so slowly opened his mouth, receiving all those gazes.
“survival.”
“….”
“You have to survive to get there. Nothing means anything if you don’t survive. I will do anything to survive. Even if it means rolling over a pile of manure, even if it means licking the feet of your enemy!”
These are not words that should come out of the mouth of someone with a high status as the head of the Shinju Five Clan.
But that’s why I felt Jang Il-so’s sincerity all the more clearly.
“Compared to that, protecting the back of someone who was pointing a knife until yesterday is nothing special.”
Jang Il-so, who poured the drink from a new glass in one go, looked straight at everyone with a strange smile. And asked softly.
“Isn’t that right?”
“Hmm.”
A groaning sound escaped from the mouths of the Heavenly Face Priest and the Black Dragon King.
I definitely hate the people in front of me more than the political factions that are coming in. It is no exaggeration to say that their history is a history of killing each other.
But no matter what, they are Sapa. We cannot join hands with political factions. The only way to deal with the political faction that has begun to move in earnest is Bibil Hill.
“First…”
Mangeumdaebu opened his mouth.
“If this is something that will only end temporarily, isn’t all this discussion meaningless? “It will end with only water damage.”
“That won’t happen.”
Jang Il-so spoke clearly.
“If Tianyu Meng doesn’t stop, there is no way to stop Gupa Ilbang on its own. “They may be stronger, but the initiative is already in Chun Yu-meng’s hands.”
“….”
“And the volcano that is the head of Tianyu Meng is absolutely not a place to stop. They are greedy. “Maybe as much as me.”
Jang Il-so’s smile grew even brighter as he remembered the volcano. There was a glimpse of madness in his eyes.
“One way or another, they will definitely push south to the Yangtze River. Then we can’t just sit back and relax.”
“For face?”
“That’s also true. But precisely, it is probably because we cannot open our eyes and watch as Cheonwoo-maeng gradually absorbs the land south of the Yangtze River into his territory.”
Mangeumdaebu nodded as if he had finished rolling the abacus.
“We also have to unite to fight against the five generations of those who fight against each other and fight against each other.”
“exactly. “If not, you have to choose one of the two.”
Jang Il-so, who suddenly lost his smile, spoke quietly as if he was growling.
“Either live like a dog or die like a wolf.”
“….”
“….”
“But what I want is to survive as a wolf. The reason I can treat the other person as prey is when I can be confident that I can hunt them without taking any damage. “If you have to be prepared to have your arms ripped off and your internal organs spilled as a reward for hunting, then you shouldn’t even dare mention the word hunting.”
Jang Il-so said, holding his face with one hand.
“Just attach whatever grandiose reason you like.”
The sight of his eyes between his fingers was absolutely terrifying.
“No matter what the cause, the goal is survival. To survive. If you miss the right time, even if you come together, you’ll just get bitten. I must live. I will definitely survive and enjoy everything I have gained. “Without missing a single detail.”
Brother Cheonmyeon, who had been listening quietly, put one hand on his forehead and laughed softly.
“It’s so blatant and low-quality that I can’t say anything about it.”
“….”
“But….”
His eyes shed a bright blue light.
“There is nothing wrong with it. I am not a person who is anxious to die either. If that’s the only way to live, then that’s what I should do. “I will agree with the defeated army.”
Jang Il-so gently curled the corner of his mouth.
“From this moment on, there is no more Xinjuo group.”
A loud declaration broke out.
“What remains are the four sects and their union! Where the Xinjuo clan has disappeared, only the name of the ‘Four Clans’ will remain!”
The name that will take the world by storm.
This was the moment when the existence of Sapaeryun first came out of Jang Il-so’s mouth.
