Chapter 288

Episode 288: You gave me hell.

Baek Cheon-gyeong looked at the doll.

The sword dance focused on the changes in his expression. Was the doll the cause? His dazed eyes became clear. Just before death, the phenomenon of heliotropia occurred, in which the mind became clearer.

Baek Cheon-gyeong’s reaction was unexpected. He laughed when he saw the doll.

“Why are you smiling?”

Baek Cheon-gyeong’s eyes turned from the doll to the sword dance.

“I should have taught you carving when you asked me to.”

That meant it was made in a mess.

Geommugeuk said with a smile.

“Isn’t this great for a first work?”

“Don’t just go somewhere and say I taught you.”

Even as he spoke clearly, blood continued to flow from his mouth. He wasn’t even aware that he was vomiting blood. The sword dance performance was unfortunate. I didn’t want to kill him.

“I’m dizzy.”

As Baek Cheon-gyeong’s body slowly collapsed, the trees that filled the surrounding area began to disappear into the ground again. The two were freed from the confined space created by the last secret, and the sunlight illuminated Baek Cheon-gyeong’s pale face.

“Just tell me it’s him!”

Baek Cheon-gyeong knelt down and looked at the surrounding grass. As his life was fading away, the surrounding grass and trees were also dying.

“You gave me hell... why should I tell you?”

It wasn’t just a resentment for killing oneself. It would be hell to die with the suspicion that I may have lived as someone’s puppet for the past ten years.

He looked up and saw wooden dolls erected everywhere. The dolls were also losing their wits. That doll you’ve been cutting for the past ten years wasn’t cut for you?

“...don’t talk nonsense.”

He denied Geommugeuk’s words.

The surrounding grass and trees shook violently as if the wind had blown. Although it was because of his anger, it seemed as if he was regretting his death.

Geommugeuk slowly walked over and sat down in front of him. The two people’s eyes met.

“I will take revenge. I will even take revenge on you. So tell me!”

I knew about sword dance. The more desperate you are, the more angry Baek Cheon-gyeong will be. But I couldn’t help it. Because it was so important whether I listened to him or not.

Baek Cheon-gyeong’s eyes were about to close.

“no! “Don’t die!”

Geommugeuk placed his palm on his chest and injected internal power. Baek Cheon-gyeong coughed and blood splattered on Geommugeuk’s face and body, but he did not stop injecting internal power.

Baek Cheon-gyeong opened his eyes again.

“So... you said you wanted revenge too, right?”

Geommugeuk held out the doll in front of him again. Although he didn’t say anything, Baek Cheon-gyeong could tell. The face carved on the doll is the enemy of sword dance.

Finally, the truth came out from Baek Cheon-gyeong’s mouth.

“Your revenge has nothing to do with me. “The person who approached me... wasn’t him.”

Geommugeuk was surprised.

“Not this person?”

“He... doesn’t look like this.”

In the last moments of his life, it didn’t seem like he was lying.

“Then who? “What should I do to meet that person?”

But Baek Cheon-gyeong did not tell him about it. The last person he thought of before his death was Jin Ha-ryeong.

“...I feel sorry for Haryeong.”

His face showed deep regret.

“They told me to kill them if I didn’t come back on time.”

Surprised, Geommugeuk shouted urgently.

“Where is she?”

I didn’t expect that he would have given the order to kill her.

“...It’s already late.”

“Where are you?”

Baek Cheon-gyeong used his last strength to look to one side. At the same time, the sword dance flashed and flew towards that direction at a high speed.

“...I will apologize to that child in the afterlife.”

After saying those words, Baek Cheon-gyeong lowered his head.

When he died, all the trees around withered and died with him.

Now, only the wooden dolls, who had completely lost their wit, watched his death in silence.

* * *

The moment Jin Ha-ryeong saw Cho-rim entering the room, his heart sank. Cho Rim’s eyes looking at him were different from usual. It would have been better if he had lived his life, but there was regret in his eyes.

“You came to kill me.”

Cho Rim accepted it obediently. Since there was a strict order from the master, she had to be killed.

“I have no personal regrets against you.”

Jin Ha-ryeong felt death for the first time. Am I going to die? It didn’t feel real.

“I don’t want to die in a stuffy place like this. “Let me see the sky just once before I die.”

When Cho Rim hesitated to answer, she asked again.

“please.”

“Good.”

The moment Cho Rim turned around and opened the door, Jin Ha Ryeong rushed in.

Shhh! Faaah!

The sword was stuck in the stone wall behind it.

Surprised, Cho Rim looked in the direction from which Daedo flew. There was a path between the subordinates, and about a dozen subordinates were lying on the left and right, covered in blood.

“Build a steel and wooden barrier!”

Crrrrrrrrrrr!

A shield began to be erected as a tree rose from the ground in the direction from which the sword flew.

The wall built in front of Chorim was the largest and thickest. The man who built the wall approached Jin Ha-ryeong again.

“No matter what happens, I’ll kill you bitch!”

At that moment, Jin Ha-ryeong saw.

I saw someone flying in this direction from the other side of the long sword that was stuck behind Chorim.

It was such a light and cheerful movement that not a single sound of wind was heard.

When the person got down right behind Cho Rim, Cho Rim finally felt that he was popular and turned back.

What he saw was a line.

Shhh!

Suddenly.

A quick slash of the sword struck his neck and blew it away.

Cho Rim couldn’t even let out a scream of despair and her head fell.

The person who appeared in front of the fallen Cho Rim was none other than Ian.

The great sword that flew in was the Great Sword of Destruction of the Blood Heavenly Demon.

Ian was hanging on the back of the main sword and flew together. Because it was a large sword larger than a person, he missed the fact that she was flying with him on the other side of the sword.

It was possible because of the skill of the Hyeolcheon sword, and it was possible because of Ian’s skill in forming the Bicheongeombeop.

At Cho Rim’s death, someone among the soldiers screamed as if he were having a fit.

“Kill those bitches first!”

They rushed towards Jin Ha-ryeong and Ian. Ian couldn’t afford to release Jin Ha-ryeong’s inner strength.

Ian cut down the attacking warriors. When she cut down four people in a row, they changed tactics. She used the fact that she was trying to protect Jin Ha-ryeong as a weakness.

“Blow away your sword energy!”

The warriors who could fire sword energy fired sword energy all at once.

Ian shouted at Jin Ha-ryeong.

“Behind my back!”

You must not avoid it. In order to save Jin Ha-ryeong, all the flying sword energy must be eliminated.

I love you so much!

At the same time, a dozen rays of sword energy flew toward Ian. Ian didn’t have the confidence to block that much sword energy at once, but he didn’t dodge. Because I couldn’t kill Jin Ha-ryeong.

That desperate moment!

Easy profit!

Fuuuuuk!

Something came down in front of the two women and blocked the flying sword energy.

bang! Quang! Kwakwa! Quaaaang!

The sword energy struck one after another, but it could not pierce or destroy it, and it all dissolved and disappeared.

Ian looked. A huge road blocking the front. And the one person who nailed it.

Surprisingly, it was the Great Dao of Destruction.

Before they knew it, Hyeolcheon Doma had flown there, pulled out a long sword from the wall, and stood tall in front of the two.

At the same time, there was a thunderclap and an explosion.

Rumble! Kwaaaang!

The iron wooden barrier behind them was shattered, and those nearby were swept away along with them. The person who destroyed the iron wooden barrier, which he was confident would never be broken, with one punch was Gwon Ma.

In front was a chopping board and in the back was a boxing horse.

One of them shouted while looking at the horse.

“Kill that monster first!”

The moment he finished saying that, Hyeolcheon Doma spoke briefly with an expression of disappointment.

“Oh my.”

Hyeolcheondoma pulled Ian and Jin Ha-ryeong, who were out of the Great Sword of Death, and made them hide behind the Great Sword of Death.

Next moment.

There was a deafening sound of thunder.

Kurkor Kwabu!

For Ian and Jin Ha-ryeong, this was their first time hearing such loud and scary thunder. It made me want to cover my ears.

Next moment!

Huaaaaaaaaaa!

A force of tremendous power swept past the erected Myeolcheondae. If the Blood Heavenly Chopping Demon had not injected internal power while supporting the Immortal Great Sword with both hands, it was so powerful that even the Immortal Great Sword would have been pulled out and sent flying away.

Just one thunder.

And the silence that came.

Ian and Jin Ha-ryeong cautiously stuck their heads out of the cliff.

The two women were startled by the scene unfolding outside.

There was no one there alive. With a single blow, all those present were swept away by the force emitted from the fist and turned into corpses.

Gwonma stood alone with his big fist hanging down.

Even Ian, who was on the same side as me, felt afraid at that sight. It felt completely different from when we trained together. In actual combat, the Demon of Heaven was truly a different person. Today, Ian saw clearly why the Demon of Heaven was the most trusted among the Demons.

The Hyeolcheon Doma pulled out the Immortal Blade from the ground and put it on his back, and the Gwonma started walking between the corpses towards them.
