Chapter 596

Slash!

Kuak

The last Blood Hound went limp.

Thud.

It sounded like a bell signaling the end of the battle.

The moment the man fell, the disciples of Mount Hua all took a deep breath and relaxed their shoulders.

Do not relax!

But the tension rose with Un Geoms voice.

Among those who fell might be those looking for a chance to attack. Do not let your guard down. Take the weapons of the enemies and clean the battlefield!

Yes!

And only after the last warning from Un Geom did they hold the swords.

Such a difficult opponent.

Most of the bandits had already fled, but the Blood Hound had fought so hard until the last one fell. If the bandits had joined forces and chosen to attack, then things would have been tough for Mount Hua.

Its all thanks to him.

Un Geoms eyes drifted to Chung Myung.

Thanks to Chung Myung, who stepped ahead, drew attention, and broke the spirits of the bandits, the situation ended with this little damage.

Boarding house head! Clean up is done!

Anyone alive?

the poison spread

Un Geom nodded as he had guessed this. There were some who didnt die but lost consciousness due to the injuries, but the poison in their bodies seemed to have spread and taken their lives.

Those terrible ones.

What on earth did they think to fight after taking poison?

Un Geom took a deep breath as he spoke to Hyun Sang.

Elder.

Hmm.

He nodded as if he knew what it was without being said. And he looked at the disciples who were still unable to get away from the scene of the battle.

This is a good sign.

In previous battles, everyone would cheer when the win was confirmed. But now the faces of Mount Huas disciples were firm like a warriors.

One could rejoice in victory, but one could not rejoice in death. If there was anyone who had cheered for this horrible win, Hyun Sang would have punished them.

Fortunately, the disciples didnt seem to forget their teachings as Taoists.

Everyone.

Ahoo, damn! These bastards were so disgusting.

Before he knew it, Chung Myung, who had been chasing the bandits and hitting them on the back of the head, returned, shaking his hands.

I should have beaten them all to death.

Right, of course

There were also people who had forgotten their duties as Taoists. Yes, there was always one.

But that was just the way it was.

Hyun Sang nodded and opened his mouth.

Hurry and clear the battlefield and treat the wounded!

Yes!

As soon as the command was given, everyone began to move quickly. Hyun Sang, who watched the scene, suddenly looked up.

We won.

The first historic campaign of Mount Hua ended in a win without taking too much damage.

ACKKK! ACKKKK! ACCKKK!

How did this one get killed?

Ack! Soso! It hurts! It hurts! Ah! I might die today!

You got stabbed in the side, and you say it hurts because I put a patch on it?

I-it really hurts

Oh, wont you be quiet! Should I just cut open the wound?

While Tang Soso was looking after the injured, the Five Swords of Mount Hua felt cold sweat drop from their bodies.

I can never get stabbed.

Isnt that more like tying a person up with patches than just putting one on?

Will the blood flow?

But at the same time, there was a deep sense of relief in their eyes.

It wasnt that no one was seriously injured, but no ones life was in danger. This atmosphere wouldnt have been possible if even one had died.

I-I might live!

What now, this bastard?

Tang Soso glared at the protesting disciple.

Are these guys all insane? Do you know that the wounds you took arent normal? Any normal human would have been dead already! Chung Myung sahyung gave you the pill, and thats why you are barely alive!

Now, it wouldnt have been surprising if she breathed fire from her mouth and all the grumbling heads lowered.

You had the Violent Sky Pill and the oil; thats why youre alive despite looking like a rag! Why are you talking nonsense after surviving because of someone else?

S-Soso. Calm down.

I was wrong.

H-Hold your anger, sajae.

Shut up and lie down if you understand!

Yes.

Tang Soso managed to subdue them in an instant, picked up the needle longer than a persons palm, and plunged it into the patients bodies.

Ackkkk!

Instead of answering that, Chung Myung pointed to Bun Chung.

He will get anxious.

Im So-Byeong looked at Bon Chung and then at Chung Myung.

If I die, that bastard is the next king.

From his words, it felt like they would kill him and put Bon Chung in the position of Green Forest.

Of course, it was nonsense, but when had that person lived just doing common sense things?

That will never happen! Never! There wont be any trouble regarding it!

Ehh, why are you being like this? Between us, ah, trust me. You trust me, right?

No.

His eyes didnt say they believed him.

Those eyes.

Im So-Byeong stood up and sighed.

I will inform you that the main force has collapsed, and I just declared that I am retaking the position. It normally takes about 15 days for everything to get normalized.

Hmm.

After that time, the promise will be kept.

Chung Myung nodded.

I understand.

Right. Then I have a lot to do

Yes.

Chung Myung watched as Im So-Byeong walked away with his men.

Hmm.

The bandits also began to clean things up.

I gained a lot.

First of all, they had won. And he had experienced people who were willing to risk their lives and fight. There would have been no more valuable experience like this for the disciples.

They must have been full of doubts now, but in the end, their win would forever stay in their hearts and create confidence within.

Along with this, there is fame.

The outcome of this battle would resound around the world.

For the first time since the competition, the name of Mount Hua would be talked about once again. Even this time, Mount Huas achievement could not be looked down upon as the victory of certain individuals.

If one considered it, they might label this as the best outcome achieved

Chung Myung.

Yes?

Do you have any idea who those Blood Hounds might be?

Chung Myung slightly furrowed his brow at Hyun Youngs question.

Well, I dont believe there are just a few people like that.

Right.

Hyun Young nodded with a puzzled expression as if he couldnt help but concur.

Indeed.

They were troublesome.

Hyun Young seemed to share Chung Myungs sentiment. Perhaps this battle was slightly different from what Mount Hua had envisioned.

They couldnt be certain, but it felt

Chung Myung.

Hm?

Just a moment.

Baek Cheon signaled Chung Myung. Chung Myung tilted his head and rose.

Baek Cheon led him to a corner and spoke with a serious expression.

This is my opinion.

Hm?

The energy of those in the bloody robes it felt similar to what weve encountered before.

Uh?

Its not identical, but this is just my gut feeling.

Chung Myung quietly observed Baek Cheon with a slightly intrigued expression.

Sasuk.

Uh?

For now, lets consider it a speculation.

Because nothing is definite.

Baek Cheon, observing the expression, quietly nodded.

Right. I understand what youre saying.

Hmm.

The bodies of the men were now stacked up. Chung Myung stated.

Right, it is what it is, well.

Uh?

Nothing.

Chung Myungs eyes darkened as he walked away from Baek Cheon.

It seems like Sasuk has a sense of it.

And Chung Myungs lips twisted into a smile.

Right. No matter how much you try to conceal your identity, the scent cannot be hidden.

His gaze drifted somewhere beyond the mountains.

It was as if he was seeing someone who couldnt normally be seen.
