Chapter 193: The Revealed Secret – Part 2
“It seems Murong Jian, who was likely the second-in-command of the Martial Alliance at the time, was extremely jealous of the Alliance Leader, Tian Qi Gang. And Xue Ma Jeon Mu-gwang had already made contact with Murong Jian, as well as Zhuge Jigang—who, suppressed by the Sima Clan at the time, had been unable to become a military commander of the Martial Alliance—even before he instigated the Blood Demon’s Massacre.”
Blood Demon Jeon Mu-gwang was truly a man of great cunning.
Long before she instigated the Blood Demon’s Massacre and seized Yunnan Province, she had anticipated that the Martial Alliance’s expeditionary force would come and had already planted the seeds of discord within it.
That was what the Black Blood Demon, Doudang, had said.
Blood Demon Jeon Mu-gwang had secretly met with the current leader Murong Jian and the current military commander Zhuge Jigang at that very place and time, casting a spell upon them without their awareness.
Thus, Murong Jian and Zhuge Jigang had no choice but to move in the direction the Blood Demon desired, without even realizing it themselves.
Doudang stated.
The suggestion he cast upon Murong Jian was ‘arrogance’, and the suggestion he cast upon Zhuge Jigang was ‘ambition’.
These words perfectly described the current actions of Murong Jian and Zhuge Jigang.
“Perhaps that’s why, though I can’t say for certain, the two men, blinded by ambition, decided to make a deal with the Blood Demon. During the Blood War, they planned to eliminate the Alliance Leader, Cheon Gikang, and the military commander at the time, Sama Jungson, alongside the Blood Demon, thereby seizing complete control of the Martial Alliance for themselves.”
