Novel Return of Mount Hua Sect Chapter 916
“Ah, I’m asking what’s the situatiooooon?”
“....”
Hong Dae-gwang looked at Chung Myung with a very distraught face.
‘I must be insane.’
How could he miss this crazy man? This demon-like man whose mere presence destroys all his peace? Me?
“Hey... Mount Hua Divine Dragon...No, Mount Hua Chivalrous Sword.”
“What?”
“Information isn’t something that just... Uh? Appears exactly when you ask for it... Uh? It doesn’t work like that...”
“What are you talking about! If Beggar Union doesn’t have the information, what are we supposed to do!”
“That’s not what I’m saying.... Information exists, but it’s not like it’s just there when you want it...”
“Noooooo!”
Hong Dae-gwang shut his eyes tight.
“Anyway, these beggars are no help, no help at all! Worthless yangbans who can’t even beg properly, who can’t even provide information when needed, what are they living on!”
“...Thanks for your concern, but....”
But do you really need to worry about that? Huh?
However, whether or not Chung Myung knew how Hong Dae-gwang felt, he constantly harassed and grinded him.
“Ah, so what happened!”
Hong Dae-gwang looked up at the ceiling with a face of enlightenment.
There’s so much he wanted to say. If the person in front of him throwing a tantrum wasn’t Chung Myung but someone else, Hong Dae-gwang would have said this with a smile on his face.
‘Look, little one. It takes some time for the information requested from the headquarters to arrive here via pigeon. I can’t fly like a bird and retrieve the information myself, and the time won’t be shortened by pushing me, so just relax and wait. It won’t take long.’
Yes, he could say that.
And if he said that, those who know Beggar Union’s dignity would nod in agreement or regret for thoughtlessly pressuring Beggar Union’s Buntaju.
That would be the case for someone with common sense.
But unfortunately, the person in front of him now was Chung Myung. This person is a person who does not treat the dignity of Beggar Union like a dog’s bone rolling down the street and is also a person without common sense or logic.
If Hong Dae-gwang say this, he’ll curse at him saying. ‘You useless beggars! You slack too much, that’s why you can only beg for a living!’.
“Kkeuk....”
Or fall backward like that, overwhelmed by his own anger.
Watching Chung Myung’s increasingly flushed face, Hong Dae-gwang felt his hair stand on end.
It feels like I’m watching a fire spreading towards a powder keg. It is certain that the moment that fire touches the explosives’ powder keg, it will explode.
His face?
No, it’s right here.
‘Please! Please! Hurry up, you bird bastard!’
Since he requested it as a special express, Beggar Union’s Thousand Miles Blue Pigeon (????(千里靑鳩)) must be flying at breakneck speed that its wing almost gave up with a letter in its talons.
Whether or not this branch shatters depends solely on the flap of its wings.
“Keuu!”
At last, Chung Myung’s eyes began to turn upside down, and Hong Dae-gwang was wondering if he should leave without looking back right now.
Ppppiiiikkk!
“Here it coooooomes!”
Finally, the awaited sound rang out, and Hong Dae-gwang jumped to his feet.
Even if he sees his deceased grandfather’s face again, he won’t be this happy. In fact, Hong Dae-gwang doesn’t even know his father’s face, let alone his grandfather’s, but anyway!
“Where!”
“There! It’s coming!”
In that instant, a blue-winged pigeon flew in through the wide-open window at lightning speed.
“Eucha!”
Hong Dae-gwang stretched out his hand and quickly caught the Thousand Miles Blue Pigeon, then quickly opened the small tube tied to its ankle.
As soon as he took out the rolled-up letter, Chung Myung quickly snatched it away.
“Where!”
Chung Myung, who opened the letter, moved his pupil back and forth at the speed of light.
“What’s written there?”
“That....”
“Yes?”
Chung Myung, who read all the letters, looked up at Hong Dae-gwang. His expression was so strange that it was indescribable.
“Old Man Beggar.”
“Why?”
“...It seems like you guys screwed big time?”
“...What? What do you mean by that?”
“Perhaps this time too...”
“Stop saying such nonsense! Wasn’t the situation bad back then? If the Ten Great Sects were to step forward in earnest, not only the enemy but also the Black Dragon King would be killed in no time...”
Kwaaang!
Suddenly, the door of the lodging was violently flung open, and a man dressed in blue stepped in slowly.
“....”
His face was stern and fierce, clad in the characteristic tight-fitting blue uniform of a pirate.
The lodging fell deathly silent.
“Hmm.”
The man scanned the room with a cold gaze. The merchants caught in his sight froze, unable to even breathe properly.
The pirate opened his mouth.
“Just now here....”
His cruel eyes flashed menacingly.
“I think I heard something about Ten Great Sects.”
“That, that was...”
“About the Black Dragon King’s head being severed?”
Blood drained from the merchants’ faces in an instant. Who knows better than them how cruel these pirates can be if they decide?
“This is why you shouldn’t show unnecessary compassion. Even after Black Dragon King showed them so much consideration, they dare to speak so carelessly with their loose tongues.”
The twisted face of the pirate flashed with anger.
“I guess I need to catch and kill a few of them as an example to bring some sense into them.”
“No, that’s not it...”
“No! You’re mistaken!”
The merchants hurriedly waved their hands to explain themselves, but the pirate signaled with his chin, ignoring them.
“Drag them out.”
“Yes!”
As the pirates swarmed in, the merchants screamed in horror.
“I- It’s a misunderstanding! My lord! My lord!”
“Please spare us!”
“Hi- Hiiiik! I- I’m...!”
The merchants who were captured by the pirates shed tears and begged for forgiveness, but the hands dragging them were merciless.
“Drag them all out and kill them. They dare to insult the Black Dragon King; their lives aren’t enough to pay for their crime!”
The shouting man clicked his tongue.
As he walked out of the lodging, he muttered to himself.
“I don’t understand why the Black Dragon King shows mercy to such people. It would have been enough to just kill and steal them all. Whether they’re merchant scum or Righteous Sects.”
“Kill and steal?”
Then a booming voice came from behind the man’s back.
Annoyance flashed across the man’s face. He turned while clicking his tongue. Another fearless guy....
Kwadeuk!
At that moment, however, a rugged hand gripped his throat.
“Kek!”
Caught off guard, the pirate bit his tongue as it pulled out due to the sudden choking. It was a tremendous pressure that seemed to squeeze and burst his throat at any moment.
His face quickly turned a dark red. In panic, he looked at the person holding him.
The moment he saw with his own eyes who it was, an indescribable shock filled the pirate’s eyes.
The pure white robe, contrasted with the strong, black hair.
The eyes were large, like those of a tiger (??(虎目)), and the thick face was reminiscent of a lion.
What is more eye-catching, however, is the letter “Azure Sky (??(蒼天))” inscribed on his right chest with a majestic style.
“Na- Namgung... Keuk! Namgung...”
Kwaaaaaang!
He strangled the pirate’s neck and slammed him to the ground at once. A sound that one could not believe came from a person hitting the ground erupted. The pirate who had been terrorizing the merchants moments ago was now a crumpled mess on the ground.
“Water fortresses.”
The one who had effortlessly taken down the pirate.
A mixture of despair and astonishment came out of the mouths of the pirates who recognized that face.
How could they forget that face?
Three years ago, he had stood toe-to-toe with their leader, the Black Dragon King. The name that was almost absolute.
“E- Em... Emperor Sword (???(帝王劍))!”
“This....”
A huge roar erupted from the mouth of Emperor Sword Namgung Hwang.
“These filthy water fortresses! How dare they step on the land of Gangbuk in front of me? I will kill them all!”
It was the moment when the Lion of Anhui, dormant for three years, finally roared towards the heavens.
