Chapter 459

Episode 459

“Cough!”

Du Jong-gyeong, one of the two bodyguards who assist the head of the Seomun family.

He touched the floor with trembling hands.

Blood soaked the ground red.

I knew that the Dragon King was a master who broke through the wall of the world, but hearing rumors and vaguely imagining it and experiencing it with my own body were completely different.

This was my first time meeting an opponent with such a hopeless gap.

‘It’s literally a monster. At first glance, he appears to be twenty years younger than me.’

Nearly half of the family’s warriors who had come out to subdue him were collapsed and groaning.

Each and every one of them is a talented person who has reached at least the top level.

Let alone cornering the opponent, he was not able to inflict even a scratch.

I couldn’t see any chance of winning.

Craddangtang!

The three warriors, who were tangled together and rolling on the ground, fell limp after being hit by the wind that flew in afterwards.

If you are conscious but unable to move your body, there is only one reason.

The demonic blood must have been suppressed and rendered incapacitated.

‘This is not the time to be begging.’

Du Jong-gyeong gritted his teeth.

Aren’t the warriors of the family falling helplessly?

I couldn’t just sit back and watch.

Whether it was porridge or rice, I had to see it to the end.

The responsibility for this situation was none other than himself.

“Big!”

He struggled to get up and picked up the sword that had fallen on the floor.

Although it was a high-quality iron sword, it was far inferior to the item he had originally used.

The beloved sword was soon torn in half by the Dragon King’s hands.

The energy emanating from the dantian spread to the four limbs and white lungs, revitalizing the entire body.

‘The price of raising one’s energy unreasonably will not be small.’

Now was not the time to discuss such matters.

Just once.

If I could unleash my secret trick, that was enough.

Trying to kill his presence as much as possible, he extended his sword towards the young man surrounded by warriors from the Gaekak clan.

The tip of the sword seemed to split apart, and dozens of illusions attacked the Dragon King’s body.

Teuong!

Surprisingly, the Dragon King accurately chose and received only the real illusion among countless illusions.

Du Jong-kyung, who rotated the new model once without going against the repulsion force, gritted his teeth.

‘I expected that!’

The internal power that erupted from his entire body caught the Dragon King’s attention for an instant.

At the same time, an enormous amount of yang energy was concentrated on the sword, causing it to burst into flames.

Rain of fire poured down toward the place where the Dragon King stood.

Illusions in the shape of swords struck me from all directions.

Kwaaaaang!

The Dragon King, who seemed to hesitate for a moment, suddenly took a strong step forward.

The ground was deeply hollowed out and the entire area shook as if there had been an earthquake.

A tremendous storm of energy engulfed the surroundings.

The siege collapsed and the warriors flew away screaming.

The fire rain, unable to withstand the vortex, collapsed helplessly.

‘Does not matter!’

Du Jong-gyeong, who jumped into the storm with his entire body covered in self-defense gear, raised his sword diagonally and slashed.

I wasn’t yet used to the manifestation of strength, so my clothes became tattered and my skin was torn, but I didn’t care.

All the herbal diets used previously were just a trick.

This was the goal from the beginning.

An all-out attack that catches the opponent off guard.

Du Jong-gyeong was convinced as he looked at the Dragon King, who was unable to react and just stared at the rising sword blade.

He said he won the battle of number reading.

Kagagak!

Until an invisible hard membrane distorted the sword’s trajectory.

The new model makes an unpleasant friction sound followed by a sharp tilt.

What if the head of the house raises her voice in front of a guest who asked her to come?

“What the hell is going on!”

In a chaotic atmosphere.

Seomun Sega, who belatedly appeared in the arena, was extremely indignant and shouted.

I looked back at him with a calm expression and answered.

“As you can see, there was a fight.”

“What on earth were you thinking when you did this! “Did the Seomun family look so funny!”

“I never looked down on it. “I just thought there was no reason to put up with it even after being insulted.”

“insult?”

“They said I shouldn’t have anything to do with the martial arts people. “In front of me.”

“.......”

Seomun Sega’s eyes showed annoyance as he looked back at the man who had finally lost consciousness.

Looking closely, it seemed like he also had a point.

“I understand your position.”

“It’s a position.”

I raised the corners of my lips as if to sneer.

Old man Lee sat down again and did something ridiculous.

“You speak strangely. “Why do you say the other side’s argument may be different?”

“.......”

“I will ask the family’s warriors about the situation and compare their opinions. Please wait in the meantime. “You wouldn’t say something like that.”

“Of course it should be so. “Shouldn’t we clearly distinguish between right and wrong?”

“I’m sorry, but we have no intention of staying at Seomun House until the tedious process is over.”

“You’re just going to leave this mess behind? “This isn’t just a problem between you and the Seomun family.”

“.......”

“You need to think about your position and status. “It is an agenda that could easily lead to conflict between the imperial family and the Murim Alliance.”

“That’s interesting. “Do you think I would give in to such threats?”

“It’s not a threat. “I’m telling the truth.”

“No matter what you say, it won’t change my mind.”

“You really...”

“I said the same thing to the fallen warrior over there, but if you want to stop it, you can stop it. “If only I could.”

“Do we really have to choose such an extreme option?”

“If anyone hears it, they will think that Seomunse’s side suffered damage unilaterally.”

Seomun Sega and I engaged in a war of words without taking a single step back from each other.

Those watching swallowed their saliva out of tension.

What Seomun Se-ju said was not particularly wrong.

In many ways, it was not good for me, as an executive of Maeng, to be in conflict with Seomun Sega at this point.

In the worst case, it could have resulted in the distraction of the leaders who should have been fully focused on the war against the Demonic Cult.

‘if.’

What if the relationship between the imperial family and the Murim Alliance becomes soured because of me?

Will my political opponents remain silent?

I can guarantee that he was excited and tried to bite me and reduce his position.

“I’m just going to stop there.”

It was then.

My wife quietly came next to me and spoke as if she was asking me a favor.

Seeing his sad expression made my heart ache.

“Mrs.”

“I don’t want to see you fighting anymore, but could you do me a favor?”

“......All right.”

I sighed and nodded.

The warriors who were freed from the pressure heaved a sigh of relief as the energy that was oppressing those around them was taken away.

‘This is it.’

At this point, it was best to pretend to be reluctant and withdraw.

I wanted this composition from the beginning.

Although the Seomun family maintained a hard-line attitude, they could never abandon the country.

Because the life of the next matriarch, not anyone else, is at stake.

‘An extreme confrontation in which neither side yields. In this situation, if the wife steps forward and mediates the two sides...’

the importance of her presence clearly stands out.

A picture was created in which Seomunse’s side had no choice but to cling to her.

‘The point is to restore the relationship between Madam and Seomun Sega. ‘There is no need for me to have a good relationship with the Seomun family.’
