Cheonmajeon.

As always, Wei Seo-ryeon and Wi Ji-cheon were enjoying gambling.

Wei Seo-ryeon opened her mouth while shuffling her cards.

“The school is very noisy these days.”

“The world is noisy, so the religion is bound to be affected.”

Although the Church of the Heavenly Demon is said to be a closed organization, that does not mean that news from the Jungwon Murim did not reach them.

A blood religion that is gaining power in the central plains with its spiritual creatures at the forefront.

And the Murim Alliance is on the defensive against such a blood religion.

The warriors of the Heavenly Demon Church who heard about the situation in the central plains were raising their noses to the fullest.

Basically, the relationship between the Heavenly Demon Church and the political faction can be said to be enemies.

This is a situation where news is spread every day that those who often criticize the Heavenly Demon God Cult as a den of evil have neglected the training of the True Dharma and are struggling with the spirits of the Blood Cult.

On the other hand, what about the Heavenly Demon Church?

In the Heavenly Demon Church, there were several venerable Jinbeop schools that maintained their strength through rigorous training on a regular basis.

In addition, although it was a blood cult that was running rampant all over the world, it did not shine a light on Xinjiang, and that fact was enough to raise the standards of the demonic cultists.

“It may seem a little excessive, but the morale of the church members is high, so there is nothing wrong with it.”

“Um.”

Wi Ji-cheon also nodded in response to Wei Seo-ryeon’s question.

The confusion caused by the Blood Cult was currently working as a positive sign for the Heavenly Demon Church.

The members of the church are actively engaged in their daily lives, feeling reassured by the support of the Heavenly Demon Church, which prevents the turmoil of the blood religion. And the Jinbeopdae warriors were encouraged by the respect of the church members and were spurring more and more training in Jinbeopdae.

“By the way, have you heard the news about Hocheonan?”

“I didn’t hear any special news either.”

“It’s been quite a while since I heard a rumor that he disappeared from the Murim Alliance, but I don’t know where he is or what he’s doing…”

Wei Seo-ryeon shakes her head. Wi Ji-cheon held out the goal card and consoled Wi Seo-ryeon.

“Aren’t you preparing some number?”

“Yes. Well, he is a person who runs wild as if the world is small, so he might be having an incredible adventure somewhere.”

Wi Ji-cheon read the troubled emotions buried in Wi Seo-ryeon’s words.

‘hmm.’

Wijicheon became Cheonma at a fairly young age. Before becoming a Cheonma candidate, Wi Ji-cheon was nothing more than a somewhat talented warrior who grew up in an ordinary church member’s family.

So, although I wasn’t able to have great experiences or expand my horizons to the point of bragging to others, I enjoyed my freedom enough to be satisfied with myself.

However, Wei Seo-ryeon was in a different situation.

She was the daughter of the Cheonma from birth, was a candidate for the Cheonma when she grew up, and became the Cheonma after that.

Anyone could see that it was a life far from freedom, and as a result, there were no people he could call friends.

That is, until I met Hocheonan and his companions, including Black Cat.

As I began to pay attention to the world while listening to the news of my friend Ho Cheon-an and his companions, did I have a desire to travel around the world?

Or maybe I just miss new gambling partners or friends.

‘It is certain that Ho Cheon-an will not come to this Demonic Cult until the movement of the Blood Cult is completed.’

Yu Yutian thought of Hu Tianan and was filled with light anticipation.

This was because Wi Ji-cheon knew that Ho Cheon-an had been preparing for the Blood Cult’s actions ever since he met the Clan’s messenger and expressed his intention to refuse.

It was difficult to imagine that Ho Cheon-an would just let go and get into a difficult situation because he was caught up in a blood feud.

Since there was enough time to prepare, Wijicheon judged that Hocheonan would have prepared sufficient numbers.

‘What will you do to overcome the current situation?’

“A thousand years old! A thousand years! Thousands of years! Please excuse me while I’m taking a break!”

Wijicheon’s curiosity was resolved through a military officer who hurriedly visited Cheonmajeon.

“It is said that a raincoat is currently approaching the Black Dragon Castle. How should I handle it?”

Wei Ji-cheon and Wei Seo-ryeon’s eyes met.

I once had this thought when I was helping Hyeok Kirin practice gambling at the camp.

What would I think if I stroked the small crown in front of me?

“How…”

Only now did I know the answer.

Ugh. Ugh.

An unstoppable feeling of satisfaction continues to flow through my hands. Just the perfect warmth and soft touch.

How did it come to this?

Squeak!

That was thanks to Seo-gong, who was looking at me with a look of dissatisfaction on his face.

To soothe my anxious mind, I put Seogong on my lap and kneaded it like I was kneading rice cake. In the end, Seogong couldn’t bear it any longer and kicked out of my arms, leaving his hands waving in the air for a while.

“W-Would you at least stroke my head?!”

This was because Hyuk Kirin suddenly stuck out the top of his head.

I was touched by Hyuk Kirin’s sincerity in sacrificing his head to relieve my tension, and I also once thought about stroking Hyuk Kirin’s head while gambling at the camp, so I ended up in this situation. It has become this.

Why didn’t I stroke the top of Hyeok Kirin’s head at that time?

I suddenly felt unfair at the thought that I had lived my life at a loss until now.

Very, very intense anger filling my heart!

That anger guided my hand!

I caught Hyeok Kirin’s cheeks, which were as red as blush from embarrassment, in my hands!

Kuuk.

What should I call that texture? It provides an exquisite sense of softness and elasticity, and even if you just pick it up with your fingers, a sense of satisfaction wells up deep inside your heart.

As I watched Tang So-yeol and the black cat eagerly aiming at Hyuk Kirin’s cheek, I expected that Hyuk Kirin’s cheek would boast a devilish touch, but the reality was beyond my imagination.

To the point where I feel betrayed by my companions.

They said they enjoyed this good thing just among themselves…?

The words that I lost half my life passed through my mind.

“Sorry to disturb your good time, but we will arrive soon.”

The fun time passed quickly, and when I came to my senses, I was already in front of the gates of the Black Dragon Castle.

When I took my hand off his cheek, Hyeok Kirin looked at me with a worried expression.

Why did Hyuk Kirin, who hates being treated like a child, stick out the top of his head?

Of course, he probably wanted to help me even just a little bit.

Is it because of Hyuk Kirin’s kind heart?

My nervous mind, which had been so anxious that I couldn’t bear it without rubbing the ball, became surprisingly calm.

Diverse!

The raincoat came to a complete stop.

I took a look at my companions. After looking around at his colleagues, who were giving him a look of support just like Hyuk Kirin, he opened the door of the raincoat.

As soon as I opened the door, I saw numerous Demonic Cult warriors lined up in front of the Black Dragon Castle.

And at the same time, the wonder they gave off hit my body like a wave.

Since this was an expected situation, he turned his brain wheel and released light to protect himself from their light. There were hundreds of warriors attacking me with fierce force, but my eyes were fixed on the one person standing in the center of them.

When that person raised his hand, the pressure that had been weighing me down disappeared completely.

The person who raised his fist was Socheonma Wi Seo-ryeon.

“I’m sure you have the deck I gave you in your arms.”

Wei Seo-ryeon, standing at the center of hundreds of warriors, opened her mouth with an elegant posture that was worthy of the name Socheonma.

“But are you really Ho Cheon-an, the brain sword to whom I gave away the Gaekpae?”

There wasn’t a single trace of love for me in those eyes.

“Or is he a blood relative of the head of a blood religion?”

Instead, what filled that position was Socheonma’s flawless appearance.

“If not, is he just a small person trying to avoid his own crisis by relying on close relationships?”

It was a strong will to find out what purpose I had for visiting the Heavenly Demon Church.

“Answer!”

Tsuzzz!!!

I didn’t open my mouth because I was under pressure and felt like the teeth of the Black Dragon would tear my body to pieces if I didn’t answer right away.

This is the Heavenly Demon Church, and the person I am dealing with is the Little Heavenly Demon.

The first thing I have to prove is not my innocence.

It was my power.

Rumbling!!!

The brain ring rotated faster than ever and the brain ring rang. The black dragon that was excitedly biting me hesitated at the sound of the thunderbolt, clearer than ever.

From the perspective of the Black Dragon, which was gaining momentum, wouldn’t it have felt like the prey it was biting had suddenly become hard?

In the process of practicing and learning Oh Seong-jin and Yook Sung-jin, my horizons of martial arts expanded greatly.

In order to defeat Jeongcheol, who was stronger than me, I cut off all branches of possibility with my own hands, leaving only the awl for a single strike.

And on top of those broken branches, a new possibility called Yook Sung-jin came down.

Just as the paper that wrapped the musk leaves its lingering scent, the principles of martial arts that were discussed when my heart was connected with my companions remained in my heart, even if only a little.

For me, who only pursued the logic of one-hit kills, that alone was a big improvement.

Above all, Jinbeop training was ultimately a part of martial arts training.

So far, I’ve put a lot of effort into learning Oh Seong-jin and Yook Sung-jin, but of course my skills need to improve.

Wow!!!

The condensed brain energy was unleashed with all its might. Even the Black Dragon Qi, which can be said to be the most powerful in the world, could not withstand the explosion of the Brain Qi and was scattered to pieces.

At that moment, I felt refreshed deep inside my heart.

Wei Seolyeon only applied pressure through the Black Dragon, and I struggled with all my might to shake off that pressure.

Today, at this very moment, I completely shook off the black dragon energy that I had never been able to shake off during dozens of sparring sessions with Wei Shulian!

A black dragon that is fading away helplessly.

The eyes of the Heavenly Demon Divine Cult warriors who witnessed me shaking off the Black Dragon Qi opened wide.

The Black Dragon is the symbol of the Heavenly Demon and the basis of its power. It must have been surprising that the Black Dragon was destroyed by the warriors of the Heavenly Demon Church, who probably understood the absolute nature of the Black Dragon more than anyone else.

The result was enough to prove that I am not a weak person to be despised, but a strong person to be respected.

A bitter smile appeared on Wei Seo-ryeon’s face.

It was an expression that clearly showed that he was happy to have proven that he was strong, but at the same time, his fighting spirit was stimulated by my inaction.

However, it was impossible to hang out with Wei Seo-ryeon like this.

I have proven that I am strong.

“I did not come to Cheonma Shinyo in the capacity of Socheonma’s guest or Hocheonan.”

Because now it was time to tell you who I was.

“Also, since I declared separation from my blood relatives, I did not come as his blood relative, nor did I come to beg for help while clinging to our relationship.”

“Then who is the person in front of me right now?”

“A boy who wants to take revenge on the blood relatives who harmed his grandfather and parents.”

Socheonma’s eyes shook slightly.

Didn’t Cheonma Wijicheon tell Socheonma what happened at the camp?

It was a strangely unexpected thing.

“I am a warrior who wants the Heavenly Demon Church to participate in my revenge.”

“That’s an absurd idea.”

“That’s not true.”

I calmly opened my mouth and explained the price that the Heavenly Demon Church would have to pay for my revenge.

“I will challenge you to learn the Heavenly Demon Divine Art.”

Not only Socheonma Wi Seo-ryeon, but even the warriors in the main area’s eyes widened.

They would never have imagined that I would make such a suggestion.

“Therefore, I will return the original copy of my Heavenly Demon Divine Art.”

“What…”

It was a time when even Socheonma Wi Seo-ryeon was so shocked that she forgot what she was saying.

[Yes.]

Permission from Heavenly Demon Wijicheon was given.
