I Reincarnated as the Crazed Heir Chapter 356

Episode 356: The Age of Zhuge Tong (2)

The servants' mouths opened for a long time and then finally closed.

Her hands, clenched tightly in anger, trembled. What more could she say?

They were the ones who appointed Ma Cheon-so as acting president. If we were to hold them accountable, it would be treason.

Moreover, his words mean that he will not hold the monks accountable if they step down.

There would be no reason for the four schools to rebel.

But.

"Please give me more time…"

The objection came from a completely unexpected place.

"Time… you mean?"

Zhuge Tong's eyebrows narrowed sharply.

"That's surprising. For a master like Hyeon Yang to say something like that."

It was the best sword of the shamans, Hyeonyang.

After the Battle of Jeongsa, he spent his days in gloomy silence, not speaking to anyone.

And everyone took it for granted.

He was the one who had the most special relationship with the agent, and he was also the one who vouched for his identity. And yet, he suddenly asked for time.

"But, why should I do that? Aren't you the biggest sinner here, Master? Haha."

When Zhuge Tong asked mockingly, Hyeon Yang answered with his head bowed.

"They say the Apostle King has lost his life, but the King of Death is still alive and kicking."

"hmm……."

Zhuge Tong coldly examined Xuanyang. He told him to continue.

"Moreover, the Murim Alliance has suffered great damage, and the Demonic Cult could resurface at any moment. It would be premature to dismiss the Sabos at this juncture. Who could possibly replace them? So… please give them a chance to turn back."

His truthful words made even the servants nod and their eyes light up. A truly valid point.

It is obvious that each sect will have no more strength as so many people have died.

But if all the key figures, including the Sabos, are absent, it will take many days until stability is found.

One opponent is Zhuge Tong, the great general.

He was not a great man who would speak without that much foresight.

"Hehe, isn't it funny that the people who created this are so worried about the martial arts world?"

"soldier……."

"That's right. To a certain extent, they've lost their power, and there's no telling when the defeated soldiers of the Apostolic Alliance and the Demonic Cult will rise up again. Thanks to you all."

The expressions of the four guards hardened coldly at Zhuge Tong's sharp words.

Who would have known the true identity of Ma Cheon-so and supported him?

Zhuge Tong, who drove even the Sammun Gate of Sacheon into treason in one fell swoop. If he added anything unnecessary, it would only be a matter of time before he was imprisoned in the brain prison.

As the crowd remained silent, Zhuge Tong nodded, as if his anger had subsided, and continued speaking.

"Well, since you're so worried, I'll let you know. You asked who should take his place? He's so rotten, I'd like to lend a hand if I can."

"Surely you are talking about the new foreigner?"

“Is there really a need to look for it in a far away place?”

"underneath……."

Where on earth are you talking about? Is there anywhere you can turn for help in these times?

One day, Zhuge Tong blurted out the words without hesitation, as if it were a prepared script.

"The Imperial Family. Aren't they there?"

"Wow, the royal family!"

The room was thrown into chaos by Zhuge Tong's remarks.

It was a more violent reaction than when I told him to step down from the board.

Even though Sacheonhoe was sent away by imperial decree, it was only a pretext.

It is an unwritten rule that the government and the martial arts world follow different paths… … .

However, Zhuge Tong lowered his head while looking at the main gate of the Dragon Pavilion, as if he would not even give them time to think.

Okay then.

Chuck, chuck! The sound of a sharp gun rang out, and the armored figures suddenly appeared.

"What, what, what is this…!"

It happened in an instant. Countless government troops formed a line surrounding the Sabos, and countless footprints stained the ground.

At this, Zhuge Tong lowered his head in sneer.

"Your Majesty, Zhuge Tong. I would like to offer my greetings."

Thud, thud.

The sound of footsteps coming from the center brushes everyone's ears and they move forward.

This isn't it. Everyone stared at the man walking with wide eyes.

How could something like this happen?

He was a face everyone knew well.

No, who doesn't know him?

The greatest warrior of the imperial family, the general who defeated Emperor Zhu Qijin and placed his younger brother Zhu Qiyue on the Dragon Throne.

"Rice, Minister of War…"

A real power broker who even controlled the Ohodogbu.

Minister of War Woo Gyeom. That was him.

The crowd was in an uproar.

I can confidently say that there has never been an example like this in all of history.

How could the imperial army set foot on the Murim Alliance armed?

"Soldier, you must explain!"

The servants stood up and shouted in a show of hostility.

one.

"As for the explanation… I guess one thousand wasn't enough. Hehe."

"that……!"

It's a threat. It's coercion.

Zhuge Tong's eyes and mouth clearly said so.

If you don't agree, I will punish you and destroy your family for three generations.

As expected, as Woogyeom nodded with a cold gaze, the government soldiers standing on either side of him drew their swords and showed their might.

As if he would immediately arrest me as a traitor if I spit out even one more word.

"Hehe, now that everyone seems to have finished their discussion, let's discuss the agenda for this meeting. Until the traitorous Demonic Cult is completely suppressed, the Murim Alliance will be subordinated to the Imperial Family. Does everyone agree to this?"

Barur. My whole body trembled and I had chills.

This is a crazy decision. What would happen if the Murim Alliance were to become part of the imperial family now that the Sadoryeon had disappeared?

'The martial arts world will disappear.'

The martial arts world that we have enjoyed so far is collapsing.

one.

"If you disagree, feel free to speak up. But only if you are confident that you can take responsibility."

The reality of the situation was one-sided.

Even if it was something the entire martial arts world did not want, the powerful officials looked after their own safety first.

They were silent, and Zhuge Tong laughed.

It tilted further.

"…You have made a truly admirable decision, my lord. I am sure His Majesty will be pleased with your decision."

Finally, Woogyeom's notice finally arrived. There was no turning back now. Everything happened like a bolt from the blue.

"Your kindness is truly infinite. Aren't the martial arts world also Your Majesty's subjects?"

"Your Majesty's people… that is truly true."

Woogyeom turns around with a smile.

The servants closed their eyes tightly.

Then, Woogyeom unfolded the golden secret letter with the spirit of a brave general and shouted.

"From today, the Murim Alliance will be appointed to the Murim Deungcheon Army (武林登天軍) by His Majesty's order. Furthermore, we will appoint military officer Zhuge Tong as the third-rank Murim Cheomsa (武林僉事) to punish the evil traitors…"

Ah… …. My mind was hazy. I was out of breath and my legs were wobbly.

It was something that was planned and done from the beginning.

Why didn't I know?

At least Jegalmun and others tried to achieve everything within the fence of Jeongdo.

However, Zhuge Tong is different.

Interest did not even have a basic creed called the Jeongpa.

And this was no different from the picture Ma Cheon-so was trying to draw.

It's just that… … that place was filled by Zhuge Tong, not Ma Cheon-so, and by the imperial family, not the Demonic Cult.

"You asked for a chance? Then what are you all doing? Hurry up and catch those traitors. That's how you'll survive. Hehe… Hahaha!"

Zhuge Tong's curse-like voice is clearly engraved in my ears.

Ten days after the end of the Jeongsa Daejeon.

The Murim Alliance has disappeared.

After the meeting ended, Hyun-yang waited outside for a long time with a hardened face.

No matter how much I thought about it, I couldn't understand it.

Why did they keep their mouths shut?

'It wasn't just the Sabos in Yonggak. There were also Jangmuns. But why…?'

Let's say that Gae-bok understands that the relationship with the royal family is inseparable from the original, so let's think about it a hundred times.

Let's say that it is possible since the Murong and Namgung families also have deep connections with the government.

But the volcano and the shaman had different paths.

Isn't this a Taoist sect that is not even recognized by the imperial family?

Even if the Murim Alliance had made a unilateral decision, it should have declared its withdrawal from the alliance and pursued its own path.

But why?

"Jang Moon-in!"

At that time, my chest was swelling with frustration.

Wi Jeon-jo, the leader of the shaman faction, appeared outside the dragon pavilion.

The long white beard clearly shows the appearance of a Taoist.

Hyunyang approached him urgently and looked at him with longing eyes.

But Wi Jeon-jo just glanced at him and walked away indifferently.

"I'm tired."

He said he didn't want to say anything today. Hana Hyeonyang had to hear it.

I walked alongside him and asked with anger in my eyes.

"Why?"

“……What are you talking about?”

"Why did you just sit by and watch the military make its decision?"

"Didn't you say it yourself? The Central Plains are filled with unpredictable disasters that could erupt at any moment. It would be right to seek the people's peace, even if it means borrowing the royal family's help."

It's a simple matter of words. But everyone in the martial arts world knows that this is merely an excuse.

Hyunyang blocked Wi Jeonjo's path and spoke with a sharp look in his eyes.

"Do they really look like they came here for the well-being of the people? That's not true. Don't you know better than anyone why the relationship between the government and the martial arts world has become strained?"

"hmm……."

The spectator closed both eyes and trembled his pure white eyebrows.

Why don't you know?

Of course… …I know very well.

About eighty years ago.

As the tyranny of the Yuan Dynasty reached its peak, Zhu Yuanzhang raised the Ming flag and drew his sword against the world.

Numerous martial artists joined in, and after much sacrifice, they were able to drive the Yuan Dynasty out of the Central Plains and into the North.

The government and the martial arts world became one and shed tears of joy.

However, the joy was short-lived. After the imperial family was established, everything changed.

The director of the martial arts world ostracized not only the martial arts world but also the military world, and brandished his sword against his loyal subjects for no good reason.

The world said that it was a bad practice that was out of concern for the power of the martial arts people, and it was also called a tosagupeng.

In reality, it was Zhu Yuanzhang's decision to eradicate the secret activities of the Heavenly Palace in the imperial family, but he had no way of knowing it.

The master of the Wei Zhao was also one of those sacrificed.

"But you, Jang Moon-in, of all people… how can you just stand by and watch this! They will surely try to suppress us under the pretext of suppressing the Demonic Cult. We will be next."

Wi Jeon-jo's eyes widened at Hyeon-yang's harsh words.

“If I do that… what can I do! Again… I can’t lose the shaman’s sword in my generation.”

"Long story…!"

Thud. Hyunyang's pupils trembled violently. The shaman's sword… … Could it be that all of this was his fault?

"Since the imperial court declared the acting king a traitor… vouching for him is an unavoidable act of treason. But why is the military only doing this… Do you really not understand?"

"Are you saying that… the military threatened Jang Moon-in?"

"……."

Jang Moon-in, the long-suffering Wi Jeon-jo, clenched his jaw. Hyeon-yang staggered, his mind in disarray.

It was all my fault.

"Isn't he called the Heavenly Reporter because his intellect reached the heavens? How can we fathom his will? Accept it."

Ah… …. Hyunyang shook his head with a face that seemed to have lost everything in the world.

This was a nightmare.

How on earth did things turn out like this?

After eliminating the internal enemies such as Jegalmun and others, Ma Cheon-so, the leader of the Demonic Cult, appeared, and after eliminating him, Cheon Gi-ja, who has now become the royal dog, is said to have appeared.
