Surviving as a Genius on Borrowed Time Chapter 633

◈ Troubled Times (3)

-Yangcheon.

―The unworthy Sungryecheonjunggung Yangcheon (敭泉) sends his regards to Her Majesty the Grand Empress Dowager.

-How are your internal injuries?

―I have been in perfect condition recently. I was just contemplating whether to visit the famous Shingeomdanju or head straight to Jangseong. I heard that Gwangjunggung (光重躬) Eung-ung temporarily took refuge with the Shingeomdanju… But, Your Majesty.

-Speak.

―I told you that So-saeng has no place to hide in the eyes of the Wind King… .

– Are you offended by my saying this?

-How dare Sosaeng.

―Your rudeness will be put to shame, so go to the Demonic Realm, Baekryeohyeop. This is an urgent matter, so you will have to use all your might to demonstrate your lightness.

-You said you were arguing about the hourly wage?

-Stop the succession of the Ipsin Sword. This is something that the Ming Dynasty and the government all agreed to.

―Are you wary of the symbolism of that sword being completely transferred to the Northern Qi?

―I will issue a verbal order later, so transfer the position of the Shingeomdan to Yonghee Myung, the Manggyeom. You should prioritize legitimacy over authority. The current Shingeomdan is a toothless sword. Until they recover, your mere presence will be a great burden.

―So-saeng carefully advised, it was a very narrow-minded action… Oh, it’s over. An old tree that lives because it can’t die.

The Seven Apostles, who were promised a life close to eternal life.

They encountered an army of 30,000 men near a tributary of the Heilongjiang River (Amur River). At the same time, they did their best to ensure that everything reached the Heidu Palace as late as possible.

A truly overwhelming number of spears, swords, and axes, as well as a blast of air bursting out of the cannon.

It was as if a natural disaster had been prevented, if only for a moment.

I had no choice but to take out my own life preserver, but even then, I was almost swept away by the tidal wave of the military might of the Mu Gong Army.

If the thoughts of the Southern Emperor had not suddenly spread like a mighty north wind, he would have really died.

And now it was the base of the Shingeomdan of Baekroehyeop.

A blood royal family of hundreds and thousands.

Many of them have long witnessed the possessed fight of the Seven Sages. She was indeed the blood of the Blood King. The suspicions about her bloodline were dispelled before they could even arise.

“He is a demon among demons. His madness, his overwhelming fighting sense, his unparalleled skill that belies his age… … .”

The white-haired handsome man said.

Sitting with his legs crossed like a painting next to the bed of the Seven Sages.

At this moment, he slowly repeated the process of placing his hand on her cheek and then stopping, but even so, Chil-sado’s thick eyelashes did not rise.

After facing off against an elite army of thirty thousand martial artists with incredible force, there was no way her body would be in normal condition.

The pure white skin was smooth without a single scar, as if symbolizing the perfection of the unmanned, but that was only due to the function of regeneration.

At the time when the war had just ended, Chilsa-do was close to being a blood-man.

The Blood King brought her here, still unconscious and standing there.

“Yes… Baekrak, the Blood Flame Cult Leader, was the one who wanted to be his successor. It was a long, long time, and I didn’t get to see this child.”

The Blood King slowly shook his head. In times of chaos, it was common for a dazzling talent to ruin the harmony of a family.

This was the way Sima Weidao expanded his power. It was no different from the military’s forced conscription.

Loss of true blood.

That’s why the Blood King’s Family’s masters are so skinny. In the harsh northern lands, they don’t eat people or crave human blood.

As nobles obsessed with class, they greatly detested the Blood Flame Sect, and this tone was maintained even in the Demon Realm.

On one side, a woman with black hair and red eyes asks.

“The right-hand man of the Northern Emperor was a blood demon. Could he be from the Blood Flame Cult?”

She resembled Chil Sado, but had a softer face line than hers. She was the successor to the Blood King, and had Chil Sado as her younger brother. At that moment, a small emotion appeared on her indifferent face.

“It probably won’t be.”

The Blood King slowly shook his head. The tips of his strangely smooth white hair rippled with luster. The closer one is to pure bloodlines, the more intense the inherent devilish nature is.

“There is a place called Bo-hyeol-dae in the Ip-hwang-seong Shingeom-dan. Like this, the Hwang-rip-bang-pa of the Ming Dynasty is a group that even employs blood demons if they are useful… That is why they are the best in the world.”

The enemy nodded. Her attention was still focused on the blood demon of Banbokguijin. Jin Myeongjo, the leader of the Divine Sword Division under the Northern Qi.

“That mixed-blooded man seemed to have a strange spirituality.”

“I felt it clearly. It was definitely the god of the upper hall of the Blood Flame Sect leader, Baek-rak. In other words, the right-hand man of the Northern Emperor killed the leader. Remember this, as it is something we must discuss later.”

“The leader…!”

As the enemy’s reddish eyes gleamed like blood mixed with waves, the Blood King’s hand, which had just reached the point of touching Chilsado’s cheek, was silently caught in a snow-white grip.

It was Chilsa Island.

“Are you trying to die?”

She asks in a broken voice.

He still had his eyes closed. He was still lying down. He looked like a martial arts ghost, sending shivers down the spines of those who saw him.

But a smile spread across the Blood King’s face.

“If it’s your upper body, you will feel the natural law. Check your father’s pulse. It’s like when you first met your mother, when your sister came into the world, when you were a newborn.”

“… … .”

“My pulse has never beat like this since I lost you. Now our royal family is complete. I have truly, truly missed you, my child.”

A creepily soft voice fills the barracks. The bloodthirsty’s obsession with life’s purpose has long been beyond imagination.

For the Blood King, the perfection of the family he created was like that.

This is the reason why he cooperated with Jeong Yeon-shin for a short time as the King of the North. The long-cherished wish of the noble Blood Royal Family was realized in a small barracks.

Saaaaa―

The wind that suddenly rose is twitching like the corners of the Blood King’s mouth. It is due to the flow of internal energy that has approached the northern natural body without end, and of course, it is the Blood King’s energy wave.

“I don’t have parents.”

Suddenly, Chil-sado’s voice calmed the laughter-filled breeze. Her words continued smoothly.

“The True Blood Cult Leader is complete in his own right. Finding his blood relatives too late only adds to the imperfection. Now I just need to put together one big piece.”

It was not a human story. It seemed as if the lips made of martial arts were speaking. In an instant, the enemy’s complexion changed, and the Blood King also opened his mouth.

“… Look at this father. This is a world where even the Southern and Northern Dynasties of the world are in the shadow of power. The main family can support you so that you can become more perfect. I heard that the branches of the Blood Flame Cult were destroyed by you, leaving you with nothing.”

“I told you I don’t have any parents?”

“How rude!”

It was a cry that erupted among the elite masters of the Blood King’s Family who were guarding the battlefield.

Immediately afterwards, Chil-sado’s eyelids slightly opened, and with that alone, the scattered waves of energy within the barracks suddenly subsided.

“… … .”

Silence is enforced through the mind. Just like the best record of the Blood Flame Sect in the past and present, it is not about absorption, but focusing on honing the upper body.

The Blood King muttered slowly.

“The martial arts are amazing, but the skills are strange. Come to think of it, that one eye is also….”

At the same time, Chil-sado closed his eyes tightly again as if it were a lie, and the aerodynamic waves that had been suppressed to the ground burst out simultaneously with a bang.

Of course, there were grooves like fingernail marks left everywhere.

It was at that time that Jeong Yeon-shin entered the barracks with Shin So-bin.

The Blood King looked down at the Chilsado, who had become a living corpse, with a strange gaze and then turned his head to Jeong Yeon-shin. The corners of his mouth that had been forming an orphaned smile slightly hardened.

“Northern Qi.”

“I’m sorry for being rude. I sent a message but got no response….”

“No.”

Sarak.

The Blood King slowly waved his hand. At the same time, his white hair swayed slightly, and a hostility of unknown origin was felt from the tips of his white hair that waved slightly.

The Blood King was holding the hand of the Seven Apostles who had let go of his arm.

It was my father’s temperament.

“I know it’s very shameless, but I’m trying to win back the heart of my lost daughter. I hope you understand that I can’t focus on your duties.”

The Blood King treated Jeongyeonshin with courtesy, regardless of his current temperament. Starting with the Black Sword Battle, the nickname of Northern Emperor began to be used by the Northern Kings of the Bantu Shinpa.

Jeong Yeon-shin’s words and actions also had to become more polite.

“Is your daughter feeling okay?”

As soon as his gaze fell, Chilsa-do’s body trembled slightly like the sound of a sword. The Blood King’s forehead, which had been furrowed with some doubt, also cracked like a rice paddy during a famine.

“There is nothing more meaningless than worrying about the health of a true blood relative. In any case, the main family has already moved in a big way according to your wishes. By any chance, is there something else that needs to be done?”

“…You’ve come a long way. Don’t you need a new home?”

The corners of the Blood King’s mouth slowly curl up at Jeong Yeon-shin’s calm question.

It was a smile that dazzled people like a Blood Flame Cult noble, but it had a devilish nature that was on a different level from that of any other Blood Flame Cult disciple.

“It seems you really fought on equal footing with Namje. Your words and actions are similar. It seems you also want to have power that is beyond your means.”

“There are many famous families in the mountains of Bonseong. The Shin family, the Yun family, the Xiahou family, the Yu family… They all have honor and must learn martial arts, so they rarely starve. They are the families that are looked up to in many places.”

“Why are you leaving out Mark?”

“It is difficult to maintain the dignity of the Blood King’s Family in the barren and desolate lands. If you come to Yangyang, you will be warmly welcomed.”

“Become a person who has entered the imperial palace?”

The smile on the Blood King’s lips was harboring a sinister disposition. At this moment, it was the smile of a peerless master, the most perfect in the entire Shingeomdan’s camp.

“What should I say to the King of the North? To remain as the head of a family of mere knights.”

Jeongyeonshin answered softly.

“It is a world where a swordsman is more valuable than a king.”

The Blood King does not know how much thought went into telling this story.

It is also unknown whether the key of the Great Law was inserted into the chains of the Shingeom Prisoner, who had been in a long-standing feud. Only the dead Namje, Geomseong, and Shingeom Budaiju would be able to calculate it accurately.

It was good in Jeongyeonshin’s eyes.

A tall scarecrow made of golden reed waves, black fog, and a desolate wind. Even at this moment, the scenery was being carved out perfectly under the ‘constellation of the sword.’

The Blood King shook his head.

“Are you planning to act as the Emperor of the North like a nickname? No one other than the Southern Emperor would dare to place your family under his command. That’s because it was already a complete family!”

Jeong Yeon-shin’s expression became strange when she heard the word completion.

“That’s that woman’s father.”

“Woman, daughter, young lady. Call me one of the three. I will not tolerate the rest. If the main family moves to the south as you say, then it will be even more so. It will take many years of hardship before this child can hear the word ‘father’, but he is definitely a member of my royal family…”

“dad?”

The voice of the true bloodline that penetrated in an instant opened a new family. It was literally a sign of a new sect. It was a family that prioritized noble bloodlines above all else.

At that time, Jeongyeonshin was silently turning around.

This was because the distant waves of magical energy were approaching from the distant sky as quickly as thunder. It was clearly a mocking wave unique to Socheonmujeok, and it was a movement waiting for Jeongyeonshin to wake up.

At this close range, her upper body god would have been able to sense Jeongyeonshin’s pulse.

―Yeonshin Ah-woo, if you’re conscious, shouldn’t you first talk about your old debt with this foolish older brother?

It comes down in an instant.

Krrrr!

With a loud crashing sound, the entire tent was pulled up, and the characteristic red afterimage of Jinmyeongjo seeped into it.

The movement of Jeongyeonshin’s protection immediately reacting to the change. Soon after, Socheonmujeok also appeared in the sky, walking on a faint fur cloud like King Yeomra.

[hmm?]

Against the backdrop of the pure white snowy field, what she saw was the Blood Flame Cult in its prime.
