Moon-Shadow Sword Emperor

Episode 461:

After completing the schedule at Seomun House safely, we returned to the headquarters.

The situation at the front did not change much.

As expected, the current Demonic Cult no longer had the luxury of seeking to expand its sphere of influence.

This was because the general manager who managed and supervised the production of Demon Dan (魔丹) had died.

The Demonic Church is suffering from internal problems.

The Murim Alliance prepares for an all-out war as if they had been waiting for it.

Naturally, Cheonan Gambu was also busy preparing for the upcoming decisive battle.

The reason I worried before heading to Seomun House was because I was reluctant to leave the place for personal reasons in the current situation, not because I was worried that the Demonic Cult would move.

“I waited. Boss.”

As soon as he arrived at his private office, Yu So-hwa brought an armful of documents and placed them on the desk.

Looking at the pile of work that had piled up before I even took off my outer clothes, a wry smile naturally came out.

I felt at a loss as to when to process all of this.

As I stared blankly at the back of Yu So-hwa leaving the office, I sighed deeply.

‘Is there any other way? ‘I ordered it.’

Zhuge Hye said that soon the order of the rulers would be issued throughout the central plains.

But that alone wasn’t enough.

It was impossible to move all the sects and families of the Baekdo Island with only the commanding spirit.

When I was the head of the Sacheon branch, didn’t I have to work hard to attract local martial artists?

Only after using everything they had was they able to form an allied force and march to Gansu.

The authority to act on behalf of the leader through the connections he had built up so far, and even the imitation Jangmun Order given by the Cheongseong faction and Ami faction.

‘If you’re going to do it, be sure. ‘We have to scrape to the bottom and pull it all together.’

In order to destroy the Demonic Bridge, the strength of the entire midfield had to be brought together.

I had no intention of just sitting back and watching, leaving everything to the military department.

‘This side also needs to prepare for the decisive battle in its own way.’

By now, letters should have reached the sects and families from all over the central plains.

A letter requesting cooperation with a seal symbolizing Cheonan Gambu.

It’s going to be a hectic day for a while.

Sarah.

After taking a deep breath, I sat down at my desk and turned the first page of the document.

* * *

Hefei, Anhui Province.

Two Jeonseogu (傳書鳩) landed on the Namgung family, a martial arts force representing the region.

“…….”

“What do you plan to do?”

“It’s a difficult problem. “This is a request for military support from Cheonan Gambu following Maeng Ju-ryeong.”

Namgung Segaju Namgung Ho placed his hand on his forehead.

The young man sitting across from me looked at the scene with a calm expression.

“It’s the Dragon King’s request, not someone else’s, so I’m tempted to grant it, but…”

“Considering the current situation of the Namgung family, I can’t simply accept it.”

Namgung Seonghun, the young sword dragon, nodded and spoke in return.

As he said, the current situation of the Namgung family was not that good.

The best of the family, the Sword King, lost his life at the hands of the White-Faced Death God, and the main force, the Changgung Swords, also suffered a blow that was close to annihilation.

What if you accept the request and provide troops, but then lose them too?

At that time, the Namgung family could have gone down the road of decline.

“What do you think?”

“If you ask my opinion, I think you should take risks and compete.”

“The reason is?”

“Because this fight is likely to be the final battle.”

Namgung-ho put down the letter on the table and was immersed in agony.

There was definitely a point in what Namgung Seong-Hoon said.

If a request for salvation had come from a foreign martial force like before, he would have refused it without hesitation.

The risk you have to take is too great to apply unnecessarily.

‘but.’

The story was different if it was the final battle that would determine victory or defeat in the Great War of True Demons.

Even a child would have known how symbolic the fight would be.

Should we have heard that the Namgung family, who occupied the first place among the five major families, cowered in fear of their enemies?

“one more. The Dragon King is a person who rewards faithfulness. “If you accept my request, I will be in debt to the most influential man in Tanggeum Wulin.”

“well. People change their attitude like flipping their palms in the face of gain. “Even if the power and influence of the Namgung family are reduced, will he still pay attention to us?”

“What I want to talk about is the character of the Dragon King, not his personality but his personality.”

“tendency?”

“Basically, he seemed to prefer creating allies for long-term exchanges rather than immediate gains.”

“Hmm.”

“An example that proves this is the Gangsoak family.”

“I know what you want to say. But even so, I feel too anxious to rely on just one Dragon King to make a decision that involves the fate of my family.”

“I was just answering because you asked for my opinion. “The decision is ultimately up to the head of the family.”

A furrow was carved between Namgung-ho’s eyebrows.

If you participate in the final battle and improve your military performance, the position of the Namgung family will increase accordingly after the war.

On the other hand, if you hold back and the war comes to an end, your power to speak out will be lower than that of the factions or families that participated in the war.

A turning point that determines the rise and fall of the Namgung family.

As the head of the Sega family, it was time to make a decision.

Do you plan for the future even if it means taking risks, or do you take the safe path to avoid the worst?

Some expect a period of heavy silence to pass.

Finally, Namgung-ho opened his tightly closed lips.

“My family has requested this support…”

* * *

Nanjing, Jiangsu Province.

“It’s finally time to return the favor.”

“Can I prepare for the competition?”

“That’s right. “Whose request could I refuse?”

Yue Kangyun, head of the Jiangsu Yue family, nodded emphatically.

It was as if he was asking such an obvious question.

Sega’s elder Ak Pyung-seon, who was sitting across from him, burst into laughter.

When Maeng Ju-ryeong came down earlier, he seemed indifferent.

The reactions were world wide.

‘Well, this is a request for military support from the Dragon King, not anyone else.’

Kang So-akga received a favor from Director Cheonan-gam that he could not repay even if it took his entire life.

It was entirely thanks to him that we were able to safely move our activity area to Jiangsu and settle down there.

‘The days were like a dream.’

There was no longer any need for persecution from the Hwangbo family.

There was no one to put a brake on the musician’s flight.

Currently, the Ak family was expanding its influence to its heart’s content.

The growth rate was so tremendous that it was difficult for Gasol to adapt to the rapidly changing environment.

‘If it weren’t for him, let alone achieving my dream, the family line might have been cut off in my generation.’

The Ak family was a family that would have disappeared into the backwaters of history if it were not for the outstanding warrior named Eum-gwi.

That’s why I couldn’t help but feel great gratitude to the Dragon King.

Without his help, he would have had to worry about the survival of his family, let alone worry about the future.

“I will summon the warriors immediately.”

“There are a lot of things you need to do from now on.”

“It’s scary just to hear it. “Please pamper me in moderation.”

Ak Pyeong-seon, who answered jokingly, left Gajujeon.

Akang-yoon, who was left alone, looked up at the ceiling with an expression of excitement on his face.

The purpose of participating in the war was not simply to repay kindness.

This battle was also an opportunity.

An opportunity to showcase a newly born musician to the Jungwon martial arts group.

Finally, the time has come to make everyone aware of the power and potential of the family that had been hidden by the presence of evil spirits.

He muttered as if making a decision.

“The entire Wulin will see Yue Jia again.”

* * *

The capital of Sichuan Province.

“her.”

After checking the contents of the letter, the old Taoist Maehwashingeom (梅花神劍) Hyeongun Dojang looked puzzled.

I was anxious ever since I heard that a letter had arrived from the Cheonan Inspectorate.

“Do whatever it takes to persuade the martial arts alliance in Sichuan?”

It was truly an unexpected request.

I couldn’t refuse it because a token of gratitude was included.

[Because I am a Taoist monk, there is not much I can give.]

[So what can I do? I have to at least hit it with my body.]

Who would have guessed?

This is how the token of appreciation that was handed over in favor of a former student will be returned.

I couldn’t be more resentful of my own complacency as I waved a piece of meat in front of the tiger.

‘I can’t blame anyone. ‘It’s all my business…’

He declared that he would listen to any request as long as it did not harm the monks.

But isn’t the scale of the request too large?

Of course, it was true that he had considerable status and influence within the Allied Forces.

However, no matter how absolute an expert he was, he was in a situation where he had lost his monastic rank and was entrusted to the branch of the Maeng.

It was impossible for him to have the authority to move the Allied forces at will.

‘…..In the end, it means that you have to work hard to meet the upper echelons of the Allied Forces and go around.’

If we were to list the major martial powers belonging to the Allied Forces, it would be as follows.

Amifa.

Cheongseong faction.

Cheomsangpa.

Sacheondanga.

In addition, there were survivors of the Joint and Hwasan factions who lost their home and joined the front lines in Sacheon.

There were as many as six martial arts factions belonging to the nine major clans or the five major clans.

I was already sighing because I had no idea how to convince them all.

What kind of trouble is this at this age?

It’s also a moment to lament about how things have turned sour in later years.

He put the letter down on his lap for a moment and organized his future plans in his head.

‘First, I have to meet the head of the party. Basically, the Tang family is friendly to Yeonsun, so it will be easy to persuade him. If we receive the cooperation of the Tang family, it will be much easier to persuade other martial forces.’

I decided on a policy, but I didn’t feel like it.

To be honest, I had a very bleak relationship with the Poison King.

I wonder which martial artist could be on friendly terms with the supreme leader of the Tang family.

“Whoa.”

Still, the current status of Cheonwoo Dojo, written at the end of the letter, gave me a ray of comfort.

Although he was a cold-hearted disciple with whom I had not heard anything since joining Cheonan Gambu, I was relieved to see that he was doing well.

‘hmm?’

Plum God Sword’s eyes narrowed as he read the last line.

An unfinished, ambiguously broken sentence.

He turned over the letter to check it, and a calm smile appeared on his lips.

‘There was content on the back too.’

Frivolous gossip that contradicts the content on the front page.

It was a piece of writing that showed the author’s sense of playfulness.

Plum God Sword, who was tapping the table with his index finger, let out a bitter smile.

He shook his head and muttered as he packed the letter in his chest.

“It looks like he is possessed by a woman again and is unable to come to his senses.”

Anyway, the one and only disciple was not very trustworthy.

However, he seems to have come to his senses recently.

It seemed that his nature had not gone anywhere.

When will he become a full-fledged master and follow in his footsteps?

“You look like an old bastard.”

A longing murmur echoed throughout the room.
