Absolute Dominion Chapter 224

Gujigae was walking busily.

It was a different outfit than usual. It wasn’t a patchy, dirty outfit, but a solid color.

He wore a bamboo hat on his head. No one could see him as an open ark.

It was a behavior.

His mind, as he walked busily, was truly complicated.

Three days ago, he received a terrible report. He was out at Changcheonmun.

The disciples returned as corpses.

“My lord! Please kill me!”

Hong Gu-gae and the Gae-bong-do people who returned carrying the corpse, their heads on the ground

He cried out loud while being beaten.

“What the hell is going on?”

After Gujigae bit the ordinary disciples, Honggugae was called aside.

Hong Gu-gae reported in detail what had happened earlier.

The crime of watching a colleague die is severely punished under the law of openness.

It was a matter of time. The fact that he was unable to come forward and was hiding

It meant that the opponent’s inaction was truly great. It was a typical room

Considering his achievements and manly spirit, it must have been inevitable.

It is. I had no intention of blaming it.

“Do you know who your opponent is?”

“It was my first time seeing you.”

Hong Gu-gae was a man who was well-informed about the current state of affairs and had a keen eye for detail. That’s why he

He was entrusted with the surveillance of the Crab Cave. If he didn’t know the person, he would be in Gangho

It was clear that he was not a known figure.

“But he was really strong.”

Moreover, he said that the opponent was not one.

‘Who on earth is it?’

Those who know that they are open and still commit such acts are

There weren’t many in the world of martial arts.

The old man in charge of the autopsy arrived shortly thereafter.

“The autopsy has been completed.”

“Report quickly.”

“Everyone was struck by magic.”

“what?”

“That is also a magic of the highest level.”

Gujigae was speechless in shock and surprise.

Those who are capable of killing the disciples of the Three Sages with one blow are naturally

It may be a martial art, but it is also a magical art? It was truly an unexpected report.

all.

“Are you sure?”

I thought it couldn’t be true. The peace that had been maintained for the past twenty years

It was. The appearance of the Demonic Cult was so unexpected.

Besides, the handling of the affairs of the Demonic Cult is generally second to none in the martial arts world.

It was carried out so secretly that it was sad. They found the body like this.

It was strange from the start.

But the old man who did the autopsy had a hard time finding out the cause of death.

He could be said to be the best in the world. There was no way he could have misunderstood.

all.

I asked Honggu Gae again.

“Is this incident related to the enemy’s leader?”

“I don’t know… but he came to meet the enemy lord.

It is certain. At that time, the lord of the gate was in Changcheonmun.

Gujigae frowned.

“Either it’s the enemy!”

I didn’t feel uncomfortable with the fact that it was related to the Demonic Cult.

When I thought about the enemy, it felt like there was a fog around me. Now,

I felt like the fog was turning blood red. Like an onion that kept peeling off.

It was also the moment when the water turned red.

But it wasn’t something to be decided by mere guesses. Who knows?

It may be because the military song’s plot was to attract the devil’s cult.

all.

Gujigae finally went to the place he had been putting off visiting for a long time.

I realized it was time to go. That was the path I was on.

For three days he walked and ran without rest, crossing mountains and fields.

I crossed and passed through a winding, unorganized alley. Secretly.

I tried not to be followed because I had somewhere to go.

And finally, Gujigae arrived at his destination.

There was a small house standing with its back to a high mountain.

It was a place I had not visited in a long time. When I was young, I was in the master’s room.

It was the place I came with the Lord.

The house looked exactly as it did in my memories from twenty years ago.

In the simply decorated yard, chickens are pecking at the feed just like back then.

There were herbs strewn about in the corner of the yard.

Standing in front of this door that day, he remembered what his master had said to him.

“The person we will meet today is Kang, who was called Manbak Seo-saeng (萬博書生) when he was young.

He is the smartest and wisest person in the lake. He is the one who happens in the river.

I know everything. When you get lost, come here.

He will show you which way to go.”

The reason the master brought him here was because the Battle of Jeongma had taken place.

It was the following year.

The old man knocked on the door nine times. The old master did the same.

Hop knocked on the door. It was a long time ago, but I came here again.

I remembered it clearly, and I even remembered knocking on the door nine times. Master

I thought that maybe he had sent me some kind of hint.

all.

Then a hoarse voice was heard from inside.

“Who is it?”

Gujigae is the same as when he came with his master twenty years ago.

I remembered the voice.

“I got lost while wandering through the Sword Forest.”

There was no response to Gujigae’s words for a moment.

After a while the door opened.

“Come in.”

Gujigae came inside.

The person who greeted him was an old man whose age was hard to guess.

It was.

The old man’s two eyes were shining as clearly as those of a young person.

It wouldn’t be strange at all if this very moment were a flash of lightning.

It was.

“It’s been a while.”

It was a tone of voice that seemed to know me well.

Gujigae clearly saw him for the first time. He must have followed his master before.

At that time, I was waiting outside the door, so I only heard voices. But

At that moment, the old man seemed to have seen himself.

“I’m still as foolish as I was then. What’s grown is this useless rice.

“It’s just a barrel.”

The goby patted its belly.

The old man asked with a faint smile.

“Do you know what your master asked me twenty years ago?”

“I don’t know.”

“He asked how the Great War could be prevented.”

Suddenly, my master’s face came to mind. Whenever I think of my master, my heart aches.

He threw himself towards the lightning to save his disciples.

It was even more so in .

“What did you say in answer?”

“I said I couldn’t stop it.”

“yes?”

“That was all I could say to my old friend.”

The old man’s eyes became moist. The old man felt regret that he had forgotten.

I was shaken.

“It was only when I heard the news of your master’s death that I became furious.

I found out about Sega’s existence. If only I had known a little earlier, yes

The master would not have died.”

The old man let out a deep sigh. The dew in his eyes quickly disappeared.

It trembled so thinly that it seemed as if it would fall. The deep friendship with the master

I felt it.

“I’m just a foolish old man.”

“……”

“Just go back.”

The order to evacuate was given, but Gujigae just sat there without saying a word.

There was.

“Even though they told me to go?”

“Even if I want to go, I can’t go. I’m lost and don’t even know how to get back.

“I can’t.”

Then the old man let out a heavy sigh.

The two remained silent like that.

After a long time, the old man broke the heavy silence.

“What do you want to know?”

Gujigae said calmly.

“Enemy! I want to know everything about him.”

What could an old man know from just the three letters of Gujigae’s name?

I had a lot of doubts. Besides, the enemy is just now getting the terms and conditions.

It was a year.

The old man slowly opened his mouth.

“If you find out his identity, you will have to go on a more difficult and complicated path.

Maybe. Will you still listen?”

It was a meaningful statement. I knew the true identity of the enemy.

It also meant that there was something. It implied that his identity was not ordinary.

It was also a thing.

Gujigae nodded with a solemn expression.

“Then I must listen even more.”

“Then tell me.”

Gujigae’s expression became increasingly serious as he listened to his slow speech.

He was shocked. The words that shocked him continued like that.

Ten days after that.

People were gathering in the secret room that had been prepared for the first time.

All of them are thirteen.

They are the ones who are recruited from the old file room and the four great families, excluding the old one.

I heard.

Gu Ji-gae, who hosted today’s meeting, had not yet arrived.

Namgung Seong, the head of the Namgung Se family, sitting across from the volcano’s long-legged Im Hwa-seon

Our eyes met. We greeted each other when we came in here.

But Im Hwa-seon smiled again. Namgung Seong smiled again.

They all responded with more polite smiles.

Everyone was smiling like that, but their feelings toward each other were different.

It wasn’t the same.

In particular, the elders of the old school gather together with the heads of the four major families.

It was uncomfortable. Last time, it was not a very serious matter like the anti-magic incident.

Nin, most of the meetings were held with only the old file room. Old file room

One side thought that the Four Great Powers were inferior to them, and that

It was also the biggest reason for the conflict between the old and the old families.

all.

Anyway, today Gujigae called all the Gupa and Sadaesega together.

Looking at it, I thought it must have been a non-conference affair.

While waiting for the gujigae, there was some light chatter between them.

all.

“They say the Seven Evils have appeared.”

“I heard that the young students of the Justice Department almost got into big trouble this time.

“

Lee Yang-woo joins the conversation between the shaman’s Hwamu-chang and the fortune teller, Gu In-ja.

I heard.

“The most powerful of our faction saved many disciples.”

“It is a spirit of sacrifice that no criminal can even dare to imitate.”

On the outside it was gilded, but everyone knew the inside story.

I heard it.

The fact that Seo Ga-in ignored the words of Jongnam Musang, the eldest of the monks

It was a very unpleasant thing to do. But everyone was polite.

He didn’t mention it. Lee Yang-woo said that to everyone.

Even though I knew you already knew, I had the audacity to bring it up first.

It is.

“But I heard that the one who drove out the Seven Evils was Senior Byeokryeokgeom.”

When Hwamu Chang naturally changed the subject, Wonrong opened his mouth.

“That’s right. I met Senior Naeng in person.”

“I didn’t know Senior Cold was still alive……”

Everyone nodded their heads at Hwamu Chang’s admiration. Chil-ak-do and Naeng-i-sang-do

It was a name that everyone had forgotten. But today they were all mentioned.

What a coincidence.

At that moment, Gujigae came into the room a little late. Gujigae had two eyes.

It seemed like this little guy couldn’t sleep.

‘What’s going on?’

Yuanlong felt that his old friend was different from usual and was worried inside.

Decided.

After exchanging brief greetings, Gu Ji-gae quickly got to the main point.

“Have you been briefed on the non-conference?”

“exactly.”

Everyone nodded. The report on the banquet they had received the other day.

It was truly shocking.

Gujigae mentioned him again.

“They planted a self-destructive hole so information would leak out.

” is blocking it.”

“They are truly wicked people.”

Hwamu Chang shook his head. From his perspective as a die-hard political figure,

Self-destruction is a technique used only by the evil ones of the Demonic Cult.

all.

Yuanlong sighed lightly as he chanted the word “Bulho.”

“How can I ever pay for that?”

There have always been evildoers in the world of martial arts. But as the days go by,

The methods are becoming more brutal. The human nature is becoming more bleak.

It is telling.

Seok Pa-yang, the co-founder of the group, asked.

“What is the current status of tracking them?”

“After that, another banquet was held, but this time too,

It is said that he failed to prevent destruction. In the process, he saw two disciples in the room again.

“I lost this life.”

Everyone sighed at Gujigae’s answer.

“It seems like it would be difficult to eradicate them in a short period of time.”

No one complained about Gujigae’s words. The two previous times

Everyone knows that this would not have happened if the tracking had not been open.

Admitted it.

There were various opinions about the banquet.

There is an opinion that a permanent organization should be created to track them, and first of all,

The opinion is that we should wait until they resurface again.

Up to this point, various opinions have been expressed.

Gujigae just listened to those opinions in silence.

Won-rong observed Gu-ji-gae’s expression. Intuitively, Gu-ji-gae was

It was a situation where I didn’t have anything to say.

Indeed, it was so. In a situation where the conversation was paused for a moment, Gu Ji-gae was unexpectedly

The topic was brought up.

“I think the pursuit of non-conferences should be put on hold for a while.”

Everyone was surprised.

“I have something urgent to tell you all.”

The serious expression on Gujigae’s face is not because today’s meeting is not a banquet.

was talking about.

The natural inn became quiet and everyone’s eyes were focused on Gujigae.

It was.

“What I’m going to tell you is about the defeat of the world.”

Jangmun’s expression hardened at the words, “The world is doomed.”

A bombshell statement broke the heavy silence.

“To conclude… Changcheonmun has absorbed the world’s four great powers.

“It is.”

Shock and amazement swept through the room. It was something I had never expected.

It was also an unbelievable fact.

The excited recruiter jumped to his feet.

“Is that really true?”

Gujigae nodded silently. The open ark is such a big deal.

There was no way I could joke or lie about one thing.

“How was that possible?”

“It’s impossible!”

Sima Qian asked, and Ma Xianzi of Qingcheng raised his voice.

The volcano’s long-legged leader, Im Hwa-seon, asked calmly.

“How accurate is this information?”

“This is nothing but confirmed information.”

Open information is mostly true if its accuracy is more than seven percent.

It was revealed, and it was almost certain that it would be over eight times.

But now I am certain that the Ark is open.

Lim Hwa-seon asked calmly.

“Could you explain in more detail?”

The excitement in the room had already subsided, and the eyes of the elders were

He was extremely sharp. He had been through all kinds of hardships, including the war with the Demonic Cult.

It was them.

“Currently, all the leaders of the world’s four factions are underlings of the Changcheonmun.

oh.”

“What happened to the existing leaders?”

Gujigae spoke of their situation in silence.

The atmosphere in the room became even more subdued.

The evaluation of the old and the four great powers of the world regarding the defeat of the world is the world’s

It wasn’t as great as it could have been.

But that doesn’t mean you can get rid of it overnight just because you have to get rid of it.

It wasn’t a widely spread sect that could do that.

If it is not a coalition of the old and new factions, each faction will have a one-on-one

Except for Shaolin and Mudang, Hwasan and Gaebong, there are no other competitions.

It was difficult for the opposing weak factions to predict their victory or defeat.

Even if it was an opponent that required enormous sacrifice, it was a very large scale.

It was because of that.

They were surprised that Changcheonmun alone absorbed such a world-ending disaster.

It’s a given.

“That’s not the problem.”

As Gujigae made a more serious expression than before, everyone became even longer.

It was long. If it is not a problem that I absorbed the world’s defeat, then what will happen next?

Everyone held their breath, wondering how amazing it would be.

“I have discovered the true identity of the enemy’s collaborators.”

The tension in the room grew as the meaningful word “real identity” was used.

has reached its peak.

The goby spoke softly.

“Everyone here will remember, twenty years ago,

That day.”

Everyone looked at me with a puzzled expression when I said twenty years ago.

“That’s right. I’m talking about the day the Great Battle of Jeongma ended.”

Now what dominates the room is the hushed tension and the squeak in the mouth of the goblin.

There were only shocking facts flowing out.

“The enemy’s small group is the bloodline of Shinhyeop and Nacha.”

Kuung!

My heart sank as the expressions on the faces of the long-suffering people changed abruptly.

“Ahhhh!”

Yuanlong let out a sigh. His mind went blank and he had no thoughts.

It didn’t come out. It was like opening a box that shouldn’t be opened.

It was a minute.

The shock was soon followed by silence.

No one opened their mouth. Everyone who was there

They were the people who were there twenty years ago. Yoo Seol-ha and Jeok-su.

Those who witnessed Lin leaving were the ones who witnessed it happen yesterday.

It was as vivid as work.

Gujigae said calmly.

“The Seven Evils that appeared before must have been eliminated by the Changcheonmun

cow.”

Gujigae was sure. On the day the Seven Evils invaded, the Wall Power Sword happened to be

Are you stopping by?

It was something I thought could happen, but it turned out to be true after I found out the identity of the enemy.

In gold, it changed into an absurd coincidence.

“Are you saying that the Wall Power Sword was also incorporated into the Changcheonmun?”

“That’s right.”

Everyone had a serious expression on their face at the assurance of Gujigae. At the same time,

I thought Jigae’s idea was correct.

Im Hwa-seon broke the heavy silence.

“Then it makes sense that Changcheonmun organized the world’s affairs.”

Everyone nodded.

If the descendants of Nacha and Shinhyeop had the help of Byeokryeokgeom, it would be a great success in the world.

The defeat would not have been able to endure. No matter how strong the power of the heads of the families of the defeat was,

Even though it was excellent, it could not compare to the Wall Power Sword. It was not even twenty years ago.

It was a world-class empire with a long history. It was based on practicality rather than long-term loyalty.

It was a group of people who gathered together. If you just cut out the leaders, you can restore the families that were there.

It wasn’t that difficult to put an end to it.

“Is it possible that the Demonic Cult and the Jilpung Sega have joined hands? Or is it simply

Are you their descendants?”

Gu Ji-gae shook his head at Lee Yang-woo’s question.

“I haven’t figured that out yet.”

At that moment, Seokpa-yang raised his voice.

“What does it mean one way or another?”

His words were very extreme, but they were also very telling.

all.

If their descendants came out and settled the affairs of the world, they would eventually be wanted.

The point was that both families were involved, whether they wanted it or not.

A feeling that had not existed until just a moment ago was forming in the intestines.

It was a sense of belonging when meeting a common enemy. The Demonic Cult

Since we were born, we had to stick together as one.

“This is a stronger enemy than any I’ve ever faced.”

Lee Yang-woo was already calling the enemy an enemy.

He truly regretted sending Seo Ga-in out for this work.

I thought I was unlucky because I had a bad temper, but there was this grand story behind it.

On the one hand, I thought this could be an opportunity.

He felt a sharp pain. His head began to spin rapidly.

Meanwhile, Yuanlong was confused. Whatever he had seen was very

He was a great young man. But it was all just to deceive himself.

What do you mean? Even saving yourself may have been manipulated.

The thought made me shiver again.

Lim Hwa-seon raised a conspiracy theory.

“Isn’t the non-ban association also a subordinate organization of theirs?”

Then Gujigae shook his head.

“That’s definitely not the case. It’s just that both sides are in conflict.

There are several circumstantial evidences reported.”

“Well then, that’s fortunate.”

“In this situation, the issue of killing the non-members should naturally be reconsidered.

“It’s something that needs to be done.”

Lim Hwa-seon said that the enemy of my enemy is ultimately my comrade.

Their hostility towards the non-religious group that was trying to destroy them was also great.

However, it was not comparable to the Demonic Cult. Especially now, the Changcheonmun

Silver is in the state of receiving the world’s defeat. It’s not the fire on the instep, but one arm is

It was as if I didn’t even know I was riding it.

Sima Qian said with concern.

“Shouldn’t we call in our children who are out at the Justice Party?

cow?”

He wanted to run and bring Sima Ying right away.

“You shouldn’t act rashly. You have to be even more calm in times like this.”

Even without Gu Ji-gae’s dissuasion, Sima Qian had a lot of experience in the world of martial arts.

It was. But it was my daughter’s problem and not someone else’s, so my lips

I was so anxious that I almost died. I was worried about sending my disciples or children to the Justice Department.

The feelings of those who sent them were all similar. They were sent for surveillance, but they were taken hostage.

This is what it looked like.

Gujigae said calmly.

“He has already absorbed the power of the world’s greatest swordsman. He has that level of ability.

I will not harm my young disciples without reason. I will not harm them without reason.

You must not commit the mistake of striking the grass and startling the snake.”

Gujigae was right. Now was the time to be careful.

Hwamu Chang asked Gu Ji Gae.

“Have you thought about how to respond?”

Openness, which plays the role of brain in the old and new alliances

It was.

Everyone was excited, expecting that he had something in mind.

I looked at it.

Gujigae calmly expressed his thoughts.

“If a full-scale war breaks out between the Changcheonmun that has absorbed the Sapae and the Sapae, the damage will be enormous.

You will have to endure it. The enemy is also hiding his true skills.

It must be. The bigger problem is his parents, Nacha and Shinhyeop. That

Even twenty years ago, he had a weapon that could represent the state.

Yes, it was. What more so if twenty years of internal energy were added to that……”

Gujigae shook his head with an expression that said he didn’t even want to imagine it.

Yuanlong said with a sigh.

“The biggest problem is not the Nachal and Shinhyup.”

Everyone nodded.

The demonic cult and the wind demons behind it.

Gujigae said gloomily.

“Perhaps we are facing a more formidable enemy than the Demonic Cult twenty years ago.

“It might be something that needs to be done.”

The Battle of Jeongma was a nightmare that no one ever wants to recall again.

Yes. But at the same time, it was also a reality that I would have to take revenge someday.

Now that nightmare has returned and become reality.

Gu Ji-gae looked around at the people in the room and spoke calmly.

“We must move before it is too late.”

Everyone nodded.

The war has already begun.

“I will decide in the same way as always.”

A pen and ink were placed in front of them.

Everyone picked up a brush one by one and put something on their palm.

He wrote: The last one to pick up the brush was Yuan Long.

After a while, Gujigae asked.

“Have you decided?”

Everyone nodded.

Everyone opened their palms as a signal to open their own palms.

The one word written on Gujigae’s palm was ‘kill’. Old friend

The word written on Yuanlong’s palm was ‘生’.

The two of them knew what decision each other would make. It was important.

It was the opinion of others. The two people had twelve hands left.

I looked at the floor.

Gujigae nodded, and Wonrong sighed and expressed his displeasure.

Spit it out.

“I hope I wasn’t reckless. I’m afraid this decision will come back to haunt me.

“I’m scared.”

Everyone knew Wonrong’s worries. What if the Great Battle of Jeongma happened again?

I was worried that it might break out.

In comparison, Gu Ji-gae’s thoughts were different.

Even if the enemy is eliminated, war will not easily occur.

The things that had to be prepared to start a war were enormous.

Even if that unlikely event becomes a reality, it will not be an all-out war.

It will be a local war. If you attack first, you will be able to attack as you did last time.

It won’t be a force to be reckoned with.

The work will be done as secretly as possible, and if possible, within their own

There will be no blood on your hands.

“I can’t just sit back and watch since I know he’s a mongrel of the Demonic Cult.

“It’s work!”

These were Lee Yang-woo’s harsh remarks.

Everyone’s hearts were also on Lee Yang-woo’s side, although to different degrees.

“If absorbing the world’s defeat is the beginning of another ambition, then that sprout

“You have to cut it off from the beginning.”

Everyone nodded at Seokpa Yang’s words.

Twenty years ago, they lost their master and disciples to the devil’s cult.

It was. They were on the verge of extinction. Resentment against the Demonic Cult

It was higher than the sky and deeper than the sea.

“Twenty years ago, the Demonic Cult surprised us. We were at a disadvantage from the start.

It was a fight. I can’t make that mistake again.”

Everyone agreed with Gu Ji-gae’s words.

Gujigae spoke calmly to the twelve strong wills.

“Now all that remains is when, where, and how.”
