����Evil Tyrant Alliance?��
Namgung Hwang opened his mouth with a stiff face. Namgung Hwang��s face stiffened as he spoke.
��What do you mean Evil Tyrant Alliance?”
Jang Ilso nodded with a relaxed look.
��It��s a name that didn��t exist until now. But now it will become a name that no one can be unaware of. Eighteen Water Fortress of the Yangtze River, Black Ghost Fortress, Hao Sect, and Myriad Man Manor will gather under one name.��
������The Evil Sect have formed an alliance?��
During the war with Magyo a hundred years ago, the Evil Faction formed an alliance. But it was only a temporary alliance for survival, and even that was an imperfect fa?��ade.
Is he saying that these Evil Sects that were so mutually antagonistic have gathered under one flag?
But there��s no reason not to believe it.
It is conceivable that the sect leaders of the Ten Great Sect gather together. And no one thinks it very strange that the heads of the Five Great Family gather in one place.
��But who could have imagined those four people standing side by side in one place?��
That dreamlike event is unfolding right before their eyes now.
��Hmph!��
Namgung Hwang snorted derisively. As if he would never show a weak side.
��What��s so great about the trivial Evil Sect banding together?��
��Indeed.��
Jang Ilso smiles brightly.
��It may not seem like much to the head of a prestigious family. However, we came together after making a big decision on our own, so why won't you congratulate us?”
“��.”
Namgung Hwang glared at him with eyes that seemed ready to devour him.
��Hmm. It seems you don��t intend to. What a shame.��
But the look didn��t make Jang Ilso flinch at all.
Even his tone of voice and his soft hand gesture show his composure.
Looking at such a Jang Ilso made one��s heart involuntarily anxious.
Heo Dojin stealthily looked behind him.
��It��s narrow.��
When they came in through that narrow valley, he thought it was a natural fortress for defense. However, as things went on, it seemed more difficult to get out than to enter.
��The ships will tangle together and hell will break loose.��
But there��s no way they can wait in a relaxed manner. The enemies will come after their backs.
��Retreat had no meaning from the start.��
Even if they had secured a way out and entered this place, nothing would have changed. A retreat is only meaningful if it can be used.
Having assessed the situation, Heo Dojin looked at Jang Ilso.
��Evil Tyrant Alliance��. Whatever it is, an alliance is a good thing. May I offer my congratulations?��
Jang Ilso nods heartily.
��A celebration from Sect Leader of Wudang Sect. It��s a great honor.��
��I��m glad. But you see, Paegun.��
Heo Dojin��s gaze fixed sharply on Jang Ilso.
��You��re not in a position to be congratulated. If you truly want congratulations, shouldn��t you come down from there?��
��Hahaha.��
Jang Ilso laughed merrily and shook his head.
��That��s right. Yes, that��s correct. It��s a fair point.��
“��.”
��That makes sense. But what can I do? I��m a scoundrel of the Evil Sect who knows nothing of manners. Isn��t it ridiculous to start acting righteously now?��
��You��re not telling us that the Ryeonju of Evil Tyrant Alliance is scared, are you?��
��Hahahaha. You��re saying something obvious. Of course, I��m scared.��
Jang Ilso��s cunning smile twisted grotesquely.
��Shaolin, Wudang, Namgung and Qingcheng. How could I not be scared when facing such a great sect? I��m so scared that I��m trembling as I stand here. Hahahahahahahat!��
Heo Dojin��s face grew cold.
��That scoundrel������
It was meant to scratch his pride, but it didn��t work at all. Normally, when one first attains a high position, they tend to consider their appearance first, regardless of their original tendency.
But Jang Ilso didn��t seem that way at all.
Heo Dojin is well aware. Such a person is the most difficult and troublesome to deal with.
��Then��.��
He stared at Jang Ilso with cold eyes.
Soon, one side of the cliff where the explosion occurred slowly began to fall and tilt.
His mind went blank for a moment.
Kureurururung!
Massive-sized rocks began to fall with increasing speed, casting shadows over the heads of the four sects.
��Ah, ah�� Euaaaaaaakh!��
��Doooooodge!��
Even the elite of the elite, who feared not even death, screamed in terror, running away in chaos.
These were individuals who could risk their lives for their comrades. But the moment they faced that enormous falling rock, their hands instinctively grabbed and pushed aside their fellow Sahyung blocking their path.
It was an overwhelming sight.
It was something beyond reason and common sense. Even the world-known Heo Dojin was so overwhelmed by the sight that he opened his mouth blankly that he was unable to grasp what he should do.
��Euaaaaat!��
Surprisingly, the first to move was Namgung Hwang.
His sword spewed out a formidable Reinforced Sword Energy. It was more than twice as big and overbearing as Reinforced Sword Energy, which destroyed the whole ship just a moment ago. He roared as if to burst his throat and swung his sword.
Kwagagagak!
The Reinforced Sword Energy he discharged lodged in the falling rock. It was a truly formidable Reinforced Sword Energy and in fact it left scars of as many as five zhang length, but the rock did not break or crack.
��Euaaaa!��
Namggung Hwang did not give up and exerted his full strength again, spewing out another Reinforced Sword Energy.
��Amitabha!��
Bop Kye also chanted in a harsh voice, perhaps knowing what he had to do.
A massive golden fist force was added to Namgung Hwang��s Reinforced Sword Energy and struck the boulder.
Kwareureung!
Finally, a rock the size of a large pavilion was cut in two. But that was far from enough.
��What are you all doing! Break it! Break ittttttttt!��
When Bop Kye��s desperate scream rang out, the people finally came to their senses and exerted their internal strength, sending sword energy and fist energy upwards.
��Heuuaaaaaa!”
��Aaaakh!”
It was a scene close to madness.
Various attacks hit, sliced, and pulverized the falling boulder. The boulder began to split, crack, and crumble.
��More! More! Squeeze out all your strength! Otherwise, we all die! Hurrrrrrrrrrrrry!��
��Heuuaaak!��
The elite members of the Ten Great Sect, with bloodshot eyes, attacked with all their might. However, it was impossible to get rid of that colossal boulder from the beginning.
The rock, which was as large as a pavilion, broke and split apart into hundreds of rocks the size of people, crashing to the ground.
Kwang! Kwaaang! Kwaaaang! Kwang!
Rocks that had fallen from an immense distance were embedded into the solid ground as if crushing mud.
Kwaaaang! Kwaaang!
The series of falling rocks continued for some time.
The world shook, and the entire cliff seemed to scream in agony.
What could describe this place, where human screams and the screams of the earth mingled, if not hell?
Kung! Kuung!
Finally, the last rock hit the ground.
Dust filled the air thickly.
As if to hide this horrible sight from the world.
Only when the wind that blew from somewhere lifted the risen dust did the utterly horrific scene reveal itself.
Heo Dojin stared at the disaster before his eyes with a dazed and lost face.
��Ughhhhh����
��My, my leg�� My�� Ughhhh����
Those pinned by the rocks.
Those scattered about, bleeding.
The spilled blood was covered by the risen dust, and above it, new blood endlessly flowed.
Heo Dojin stared blankly at the scene and turned his eyes to the cliff above.
��Hahahahahat!��
“��.”
��Euhahahahahat!��
The insane laughter of Jang Ilso, sounding truly deranged, along with the jingling of his accessories, mercilessly filled the valley infested with groans.
