Episode 605 wake up (5)
“I never thought I’d see you like this.”
“Hehe, so did I.”
“I see. Are you here to give me a punch?”
“That can’t be right. Although I am not as strong as the leader of the Seo Sect, I am called the great leader of the Central Four Sects. I will not move for such trivial reasons.”
Hu Yaosheng smiled.
“That’s right. Lord Seong is that kind of person.”
“How does it sound sarcastic?”
“Absolutely. My shoulders have risen a lot these days, but not to the point where I can raise my head in front of the Lord of the castle.”
“Hehehe.”
Song Sang-baek smiled broadly.
It was a face that showed great composure. Even though he entered the headquarters of the Heavenly Demon Church alone without any attendant, he could not find any signs of anxiety even after wiping his eyes.
Hu Yaosheng could not help but be inwardly impressed by his distribution.
‘The leader who holds sway over all the Safa people in the world came to visit in person… … No matter how many alliances we have formed, this is not easy. However, his eyes are too pure to see this action as an expression of arrogance.’
It was even different from when he personally visited Sanghyeolseong Fortress. I would say he seems to have become a completely different person.
However, Hu Yaosheng liked this cozy change in Zheng Zhenbaek.
“But what smell is this?”
“yes?”
“Are you going to boil the medicinal herb and drink it? After all, you are the one in charge of the new religion, so you should take care of your body.”
“ah!”
Hu Yaosheng laughed loudly.
“It’s not a medicinal herb. It’s called oyster tea, but it smells a bit strange, doesn’t it?”
“I think the smell between the sides would be more fragrant.”
“……It’s not that bad.”
“The scent is very unique. It won’t be easy to get used to it.”
“Once you taste it, there is no tea like it. If you drink two cups a day, you will feel like your head is clearer.”
“Is that so? It would have been better if I had known sooner. If I had drank that tea often, I might not have been swayed by that damn person, Dam Sa-young, right?”
“ha ha ha.”
“I’m not saying no.”
“Ha ha ha ha ha!”
As Ho Yaoseong burst into laughter again and again, Song Zhengbaek also chuckled.
“Give me some other fragrant tea, not oyster tea.”
“Of course. Just wait a moment.”
After a while, the two people sat down at the table facing each other.
Zheng Zhongbaek looked around.
“It’s the office of the Commander-in-Chief… I thought it would look big and fancy, but it’s incredibly complicated.”
“Because I have a lot of work to do. Isn’t Prince Hwang’s residence similar?”
“That person is completely untidy.”
Ho Yo-seong smiled sheepishly.
“I’m a little messy, aren’t I?”
“I drink tea that smells like poop, but it’s like this.”
“……Because it’s not.”
Zheng Zhongbaek laughed out loud.
“Saddam, I guess you’re probably busy, so let’s get to the point.”
“It’s okay to do this, but it’s okay to just chat for a few days. What kind of person is the Lord of the castle? Would you use my busyness as an excuse to just get to the point?”
“Thank you for your words.”
After quenching his thirst with a sip of tea, Song Zhengbaek spoke in a considerably heavier voice.
“I didn’t know because I was busy with work in the castle, but the Seo leader’s actions have been very flashy recently.”
“Of course.”
“He’s an amazing person. When you reach that level, the five passions become dull. Still, I’m wielding a power that I can’t even see where it’s going to end. It’s true that there is no one under the auspices.”
This meant that he was showing steps that were no different from his teacher Lee Cheon-sang.
Hu Yaosheng smiled.
“The previous religious leader and the contemporary religious leader, aren’t they both people who have lived very intense lives? I can’t even fathom a state like that, but it seems like there is a desire that cannot be given up even if the five passions become dull.”
“Yeah, I guess so.”
Geum Baek, who was looking down at his teacup, took out a letter from his arms.
“Actually, there was no need for me to come out. However, unlike your school, I was busy in my hometown. From the looks of it, I was the most relaxed. So I came here in person to take a tour of the central plains.”
“…….”
“Look at this first.”
Hu Yaosheng politely accepted the letter and slowly opened it and read it.
Song Geum-baek continued.
“It doesn’t matter what the Seo leader or you think. I just thought this. If a new empire is established anyway, the boundary between government and martial arts will become blurred, so I wondered if there was a need for us to remain iron-blooded. .”
“…….”
“Regardless of other things, the religious leader will have no choice but to worry as we continue to grow powerful in the eastern part of the central plains. To be precise, you and the soldiers under your command, who run the world, will try to keep us in check.”
“…….”
“I don’t want any more trouble. However, I don’t want to dismantle my true nature or give up my power by force.”
“I guess so.”
“So that’s the conclusion we came to after much consideration. Of course, they could send someone to manage us. It would hurt our pride, but if you want to do that, how can we stop you?”
Hu Yaosheng shook his head.

“It’s not that I didn’t think that way. I actually said that to the religious leader.”
“You think differently now?”
“Just as the Lord of the castle does not want any more trouble, the Lord of the Church also does not want to cause any more hurt feelings.”
“haha.”
“Perhaps the sect leader is taking such leisure because he has built up a power that no one in the world can match. But what is the use of that? If the sect leader so wishes, we have no choice but to follow.”
Song Zhengbaek chuckled.
“That person, the leader of the Seo clan, seems to be trusted so deeply that it is truly enviable.”
Ho Yaoseong also smiled.
“Of course. He reigns as the god of the Demonic Martial Forest.”
“And soon, he will reign as the god of the world.”
“Because that’s what you’re running for.”
“I have no intention of becoming everyone’s god. All I want to do is enjoy life with my people in moderation. I don’t have any desire to be the best, at least not for me.”
“I know. That’s why.”
Ho Yaoseong took out one of the documents piled up on the table.
“I thought about this too.”
Zhong Zhengbaek’s eyes widened as he read the document handed to him by Hu Yao Sheng.
“her!”
“To be honest, I didn’t know that the Lord of the castle would think the same way as me. I even didn’t know that he would come to visit me in person like this.”
Song Geum-baek whetted his appetite.
“I’m jealous of the Seo leader. I can’t believe he has an administrator like you.”
“Rather than being an administrator, I just do everything I can. And when Prince Hwang hears those words, he will be disappointed.”
“We’re just talking about this between us, but isn’t Mr. Hwang a bit stiff?”
“It’s a virtue I don’t have. The leader criticizes me for being too gentle.”
“Hehehe!”
Song Zhongbaek laughed out loud and nodded.
“Can we proceed right away?”
Ho Yo-seong smiled brightly.
“Of course. His Majesty the Emperor will probably welcome us with open arms.”
“Is that really so? Whatever the reason, I am the one who stood on the crown prince’s side along with Damsayoung. You may not know it on the outside, but on the inside, I will sharpen my sword.”
“It may be presumptuous to say this, but you have never met His Majesty the Emperor, have you?”
“I saw him lying down as if he were dead.”
“Yes. However, after coming to your senses and turning your eyes to the world once again, His Majesty the Emperor’s insight is second to none among the top figures in Wulin. Moreover, he is also wise.”
“okay?”
It certainly didn’t seem like an ordinary greeting for the world-famous Hu Yaoseong to say this. Well, he was definitely an extraordinary person, considering that he had stored up the power of the imperial palace so much even while the power of the empire was in vain.
Hu Yaosheng’s eyes sparkled.
“The Iron Blooded Castle leaves its current residence and enters the imperial palace… If you help revive the power of the empire by replacing the weakened imperial troops, His Majesty the Emperor will be greatly satisfied.”
Yes.
The letter written directly by Song Zhengbaek stated that he would immediately transfer all of the forces of Iron Blood Castle to the imperial palace.
It was truly an unconventional decision. Iron Blood Castle was also a factional alliance with its own history, and incorporating all of its power into the imperial palace was by no means an easy idea.
Some people may think that Song Baek’s decision is the self-satisfaction of a timid old man.
But Hu Yaosheng never thought that way. On the contrary, I had no doubt that this judgment of Song Zhengbaek would further increase his value.
A hero must know how to read fortunes. Song Sang-baek knew exactly what he wanted, saw the situation clearly, and realized how all the warriors of the Iron Blood Castle could live without shedding blood.
In that respect, Song Zhengbaek was truly a giant who deserved respect. Hu Yaosheng truly thought so.
“Currently, His Majesty the Emperor does not have many trustworthy allies. Of course, there are 56,000 imperial troops, but that is literally just troops.”
“hmm.”
“We will also push ahead with the work like this. The Lord of Seong must rise to the highest position in the unbanned government position, even if only for show.”
The corners of Zheng Zhongbaek’s mouth rose.
“When I moved for that small position, I couldn’t get anything, but now that I’ve put everything down, the position has taken care of itself.”
“Please help your Majesty. You must be very lonely even if you pretend not to be.”
Zheng Zhongbaek shrugged his shoulders.
“The emperor is someone who would be willing to sacrifice the rest of his life for the empire. There is no need for me to play that role.”
“haha.”
“However, both the emperor and I are people who have experienced bitter failure in life. It wouldn’t be a bad idea to have a drink when you’re in need.”
Ho Yo-seong laughed as if he was in trouble.
“You shouldn’t use that tone even when you meet His Majesty the Emperor. You know that, right?”
“You look at me so hard.”
“Ahaha.”
Jang Geum-baek got up from his seat.
“Please tell me the current situation of the imperial palace, the location of the Lord of the West, and the location of the emperor.”
“I already received the call two days ago. If the Lord of the Castle had been in the castle, he would have received the call right away.”
Hu Yaocheng told him in detail the location of Xi Liang and the emperor, and what had happened so far.
Zhong Zhenbaek frowned.
“The imperial army was placed in Anhui….”
“That’s right.”
“There’s one thing I don’t understand.”
“Please speak.”
Song Zhongbaek tilted his head.
“I may have my own thoughts, but why didn’t the Seo leader attack the imperial palace? If Damsayoung was there, she could have attacked right away. Of course, Damsayoung, that snake-like bastard must have laid many traps. ”
He meant that if he was a martial artist of Seoliang, he could have destroyed all the traps and killed Dam Sa-young, so why bother making things complicated by retreating?
“There are many reasons. They don’t want their troops to be sacrificed, and the entire imperial palace is surrounded by an unimaginable defense shield. They say that just breaking that shield can cause exhaustion.”
“Is it that much?”
“Yes. If you attack rashly and Damsayoung runs away or meets you in a state of exhaustion, the leader will be at a disadvantage in the end.”
“Hmm.”
“But that’s not the decisive reason.”
“then?”
Hu Yaosheng’s eyes became serious.
“The leader believes that we must wait. In order to uproot Damsayoung.”
“…….”
“And now the wait has come to an end.”
