Legend of the Evil Martial God
Chapter 113
At Ye Yahyeon’s words that there was no set time, Jeok Wigang looked at him with an incredulous expression.
“So I have to wait indefinitely?”
“Yes. He must have been quite bored to decide to conquer the Martial World.”
Ah, so that’s why the Martial World was in such chaos.
They were almost conquered by guys who were merely ranked between fifty and sixty.
It showed just how complacently the Central Plains Martial World had been living like frogs in a well.
Well, thanks to that, the martial artists gritted their teeth and trained, raising their level significantly.
It turned out to be a blessing in disguise, so maybe they should thank the Four Heavenly Demon Gods.
“Isn’t there a way to contact them?”
“There is. They give us Dimensional Transfer Scrolls for reporting purposes.”
“Where are those?”
“I already used them all up.”
Jeok Wigang looked at the Death Command Demon God.
“I used all of mine too.”
They really were hopeless guys.
“If you use them all up, how were you planning to return?”
“We figured the Heavenly Lord would come to the Central Plains someday, so we could wait until then.”
“What kind of being is this Heavenly Lord?”
At that question, the Death Command Demon God and Ye Yahyeon looked at each other.
“Well, we’ve never seen him…”
“We haven’t even seen the faces of the higher-ranked ones, let alone the Heavenly Lord.”
“Is this Heavenly Lord strong?”
At Jeok Wigang’s question, both of them stiffened their expressions and nodded.
“He’s a being that even if all the Demon People of Hundred Demon Heaven attacked together, they couldn’t win.”
“How do you know that when you haven’t even seen him?”
“When you’re in Hundred Demon Heaven, you can feel the Heavenly Lord’s aura everywhere. The Demon People who feel that aura can never think of opposing the Heavenly Lord. Just the aura flowing out makes your whole body get goosebumps and lose all fighting spirit.”
“Oho!”
At the mention of strength, Jeok Wigang’s eyes sparkled.
“Even if I use my full power, I wouldn’t be able to win?”
At the mention of using full power, Ye Yahyeon asked.
“Have you ever used your full power before?”
“No. Not even once.”
“Then when you fought us, how much power did you use?”
“Hmm. Ten percent?”
Ye Yahyeon looked at Jeok Wigang with an incredulous expression.
The Death Command Demon God didn’t know what he had just heard and asked again.
“W-wait a moment. So… you’re saying you only used ten percent of your power against the Poison Life Demon God?”
“No.”
“No?”
“Ten percent against all four of you.”
“All four means…”
“All of the Four Heavenly Demon Gods.”
Ye Yahyeon squeezed his eyes shut as if remembering that time, and the Death Command Demon God was so shocked his mouth fell open.
How could this be possible?
“But after turning into a baby and growing up again, I became even stronger than back then. I’m still getting stronger now too.”
Insane.
Hearing Jeok Wigang’s words, Ye Yahyeon shook his head with a disgusted expression.
The Death Command Demon God’s legs gave out and he slumped to the ground.
“How about it? Compared to the Heavenly Lord?”
“I don’t know. I haven’t seen the Heavenly Lord’s full power either.”
“Do you think they’d be evenly matched?”
“Yes…”
He answered while watching Jeok Wigang’s mood, worried he might get upset.
“Really? I’m looking forward to it.”
Unexpectedly, Jeok Wigang seemed delighted.
“Huh?”
“Isn’t it exciting to have an opponent you can fight with full power? No wait. He might be even stronger, so I should be nervous. Ah! My heart is racing?”
“Your heart is racing?”
“Yeah. This is interesting. Should I do something called training too? Since I can’t learn internal energy, what kind of training should I do?”
The Death Command Demon God and Ye Yahyeon looked incredulous at Jeok Wigang’s attitude.
“When the Heavenly Lord descends to this world, it will be the end. Complete destruction.”
At Ye Yahyeon’s words, Jeok Wigang grinned and said.
“Will the world be destroyed? Or… will this Heavenly Lord disappear? Aren’t you curious?”
A confrontation between Jeok Wigang and the Heavenly Lord.
That is indeed curious.
“No, come to think of it, if they’re that strong, couldn’t they just descend directly? Why send you guys to gather information and try to drive a wedge between the government and the martial world like this?”
“The power of martial artists is stronger than expected. Since it takes time to deal with them, we want to reduce the martial artists’ influence as much as possible beforehand.”
“No, you said they have the power to destroy the world. They could just blow everything up.”
“Hey. If that were the case, why would they bother descending? They’re coming to make this beautiful world entirely ours.”
“The place where Baekma Heaven is located must be barren.”
“Yes. It’s not just barren, it’s a place that’s hard to live in. Cold and with no food.”
“Then, couldn’t you just live together peacefully?”
“As I mentioned, Baekma Heaven doesn’t only have humans. There are more monsters hostile to humans. They consider humans as livestock and will devour them.”
“They eat humans?”
“Yes. There are crazy bastards who are obsessed with human flesh.”
Jeok Wigang made up his mind.
He would blow those bastards away on the spot.
“You’re human too. You didn’t get eaten?”
“Strictly speaking, I’m not human either. I’m a demon race. I just have a human appearance.”
“Then your martial arts must be different from humans too.”
“That’s right. Since the demon race is specialized for combat, we can learn martial arts faster and execute them more powerfully than humans.”
“Then the Heavenly Lord must be a demon too.”
“Yes. Some call him a Demon God.”
“In other words… Baekma Heaven is the Demon Realm.”
“From the humans’ perspective, that’s correct.”
Now the true nature of Baekma Heaven was finally becoming clear.
“Then the reason for targeting the Central Plains is because it looks like a good place to live?”
“That’s right. After the Heavenly Lord examined many dimensions, he seems to have deemed the Central Plains most suitable for living. That’s why he first sent us here, and we’ve already sent all information about the Central Plains.”
“What about information on me?”
“We didn’t send it.”
“Why?”
“If they come rushing over, they’ll look for us, and when they find us, they’ll obviously tell us to guide them to Dae-hyeong…”
“So you didn’t tell them because you wanted to avoid me?”
“That’s right.”
Death Command Demon God kept being shocked by Ye Yahyeon’s words.
The four demons first dispatched to the Central Plains, the Four Heavenly Demon Gods, had been hiding their identities and running around to avoid facing one human out of fear.
Death Command Demon God looked at Jeok Wigang and understood the Four Heavenly Demon Gods.
He would have done the same.
‘Is he really on the same level as the Heavenly Lord?’
He even had this thought.
Then what should he do?
When the Heavenly Lord descends later, whose side should he stand behind?
What if he stands behind the Heavenly Lord and this human defeats the Heavenly Lord?
He’d be screwed.
What about the opposite?
Same result.
“Hey, decide which side to join later. You’ll go blind staring like that.”
“Huh? Oh, no sir.”
“Don’t lie. I can see everything.”
Death Command Demon God hung his head low in embarrassment.
“How strong are the higher ranks?”
“From the fiftieth rank up, they’re classified as nobles even among the demon race, and they’re truly strong. We’re no match for them at all.”
“Really? They’re that strong? I hope they come quickly too. Hey, couldn’t we send a fake letter? Saying there’s an existence we can’t handle and asking for support. Then they might come. Or couldn’t I just go directly to the Demon Realm to meet the Baekma Heaven demons?”
Baekma Heaven, which should have been the world’s terror, was becoming a place full of dreams and excitement for Jeok Wigang.
“Can’t you recognize each other among yourselves? It seemed like you could roughly tell earlier.”
“That’s only when they’re people we already know or demon gods we’ve met at least once. And we can sense the unique aura of the demon race. However, non-demon beings have different auras, so we might not recognize them unless we know them.”
“Hmm. Really? So you can’t recognize those who aren’t demons.”
“That’s right.”
“And you don’t know how many have descended?”
“No.”
“Can’t be helped. I was hoping I could find them more easily.”
“I’m sorry.”
“It’s fine. Finding the ones in hiding is quite fun in its own way. I should enjoy it.”
Jeok Wigang looked at Death Command Demon God and asked.
“What’s your name?”
“Huh? Yes! My Central Plains name is Jung Saheon.”
“I see. Let’s get along well from now on.”
“Yes!”
“Did you bewitch the Governor with shamanic magic?”
“That’s right. I’ll release it immediately.”
“No, don’t release it. Change it so he has strong loyalty to the Emperor.”
“Huh? Not loyalty to Older Brother?”
“Yeah, increase his loyalty to the Emperor. Make it so he’d even pretend to die if the Emperor ordered it.”
“Understood.”
“Did you also bewitch the soldiers you’re training?”
“Yes.”
“Then change those soldiers to be loyal to the Emperor too.”
“Understood.”
“Set it up like that and wait. I’ll call for you separately later.”
What could calling separately mean?
It meant he didn’t have to go along.
When his expression brightened, Jeok Wigang chuckled.
“Are you that happy about not going with me?”
“Gasp! No, that’s not it.”
“Why? Will you run away immediately if I come?”
“No.”
“Don’t lie. Both the Four Heavenly Demon Gods and you – demons can’t hide their expressions, can they?”
“I’m sorry.”
“If you want to run, go ahead. I’d prefer if you ran to Hundred Demon Heaven. There’s something I’m curious about.”
“What? What are you curious about?”
“I’m curious whether the Heavenly Energy Mark can track someone who fled to another dimension.”
“What is… the Heavenly Energy Mark?”
“It’s a magic art that tells me where you are no matter where you go. I left a mark on your body.”
Death Command Demon God and Jung Saheon’s pupils trembled at the mention of leaving a mark.
They had planned to erase all traces and hide as soon as they escaped this place.
No.
Now that they knew about the mark, they could just erase it.
They didn’t know where it was hidden, but they could find it.
He was an excellent shaman after all.
But what was more surprising.
“You can use magic arts too?”
“Yeah. Pretty well.”
At the words “pretty well,” Ye Yahyeon spoke in a voice of disbelief.
“Pretty well? You defeated me with magic arts alone, didn’t you?”
To defeat Hundred Demon Heaven’s sixty-second rank with magic arts alone.
“I couldn’t even lift a finger before I was beaten.”
Not being able to lift a finger meant he had been overwhelmingly defeated.
He was curious.
“Are your magic arts stronger? Or…”
“Nah. Magic arts are just auxiliary means. This is the real thing.”
Jung Saheon thought.
Perhaps even if he found the mark, he wouldn’t be able to erase it.
Ye Yahyeon said to Jung Saheon.
“Don’t think so negatively. He treats you well as long as you don’t rebel.”
“That’s right. You know that well, so why did you guys rebel so much?”
“What can we do about our temperament? It comes up without us knowing. We hate it too. This damn temperament.”
“I’m sorry.”
Jeok Wigang suddenly apologized.
Ye Yahyeon asked with a puzzled expression.
“For what?”
“If I had been harder on you, that temperament might have been fixed. I went easy because I was afraid you’d die.”
“Hah…”
“But now it’s possible. I created a magic art that prevents death even when beaten hard.”
Watching Jeok Wigang boast with a bright smile, Ye Yahyeon sent a sound transmission to Jung Saheon with a fed-up expression.
– You heard that? That’s the kind of person he is. He’s scarier than the Heavenly Lord. So you’d better just abandon any thoughts of running away. I told you, right? If you listen well, he treats you well. But if you don’t listen… pain beyond your imagination will come for you.
Jung Saheon’s expression hardened.
He had already experienced such pain, but could there be even worse pain?
– The pain you suffered today was just a warm-up.
Had he read his mind?
Ye Yahyeon precisely addressed exactly what Jung Saheon was wondering about.
With this, all his worries were resolved at once.
‘I must never run away.’
Jung Saheon’s goal had been to live comfortably.
“Stay here for the time being, and come running when I call you.”
“Yes! Older Brother!”
