Novel Return of Mount Hua Sect Chapter 985
Mount Hua Chivalrous Sword Chung Myung.
The name clearly resonates loudly in Kangho.
Isn’t Mount Hua Chivalrous Sword the name that everyone who has been involved in Kangho, whether advocating for righteousness or evil, can now recognize?
However, even for those who knew the name and understood the symbolism of Mount Hua Chivalrous Sword in Kangho, this was clearly an awkward scene.
Shaolin, Mount Hua, Sichuan Tang Family.
It is a breathtaking situation in which the heads of the three sects, each too significant to be simply described as ‘powerful’, bare their teeth at each other. The name of Mount Hua Chivalrous Sword still seemed too small to intervene in such a situation.
Furthermore, his behavior, which could be considered nothing less than brazenly rude, would have been punished as a grave offense for violating the ups and downs if it had been anyone from another sect.
But Mount Hua said nothing to Chung Myung.
While this was indeed a bizarre occurrence, it was somehow understandable. Among those here, there are not even a few who can claim to know what kind of sect Mount Hua truly is.
Thus, the real question that puzzled onlookers was different.
‘Why isn’t Tang Family saying anything?’
It was the attitude of Tang Family. It was a situation where Tang Gun-ak was explosively showing his anger. A third-class disciple intervened in such an urgent situation. Isn’t this enough of a situation for Tang Family to feel insulted?
No matter how close Mount Hua Chivalrous Sword was to Sichuan Tang Family, considering the unity of Tang Family that was difficult for any sect in the world to match, it was not surprising that the disciples of Tang Family hardened their complexions and attacked Chung Myung. No, naturally, it had to be that way.
But Tang Family is silent. They just look at Chung Myung coming forward with stern eyes. There was even greater trust in those eyes.
This naturally caused bewilderment among the onlookers.
‘It is only natural.’
Ciwu Beggar, seeing the quite perplexed faces of Ten Great Sects, slowly shook his head.
He could fully empathize with their state of confusion. If he hadn’t seen with his own eyes who Mount Hua Chivalrous Sword was on Plum Blossom Island, he would have stood with the same face as them.
In other words, if they had seen the scene of Mount Hua Chivalrous Sword defeating Black Dragon King on Plum Blossom Island right in front of their eyes, their reaction would have been significantly different.
Chung Myung proved with his own hands that he was qualified to participate in this conversation. Ranks within a sect are extremely important, but sometimes, something even more critical exists.
That is strength.
Who would dare call someone arrogant when he single-handedly defeats Black Dragon King?
Therefore, Ciwu Beggar was able to understand both the reactions of Heavenly Comrade Alliance, who looked at him with firn eyes, and the Ten Great Sects, who looked at him with eyes full of suspicion.
Chung Myung, who walked between Heavenly Comrade Alliance, opened his mouth after breaking through the long silence. His eyes were staring straight at Bop Jeong.
“What if we did collude?”
Bop Jeong faced Chung Myung with a stern face.
“What would you do about it?”
It was a very symbolic sight.
Bop Jeong is Bangjang of Shaolin. It is no exaggeration to say that he has the highest status in the current Kangho.
The sight of one of Mount Hua’s third-class disciples shooting back at Bangjang of Shaolin made those watching feel an extreme sense of alienation.
It is Bop Jeong’s status that did not collapse until the end despite being viewed with suspicion and disappointment. It might be the moment when that status is being invaded by the enemy, treading upon it with muddy boots.
“...Siju.”
Bop Jeong’s face twitched momentarily. However, he couldn’t show anger here.
The man he knows Chung Myung is truly frivolous, but at the same time, his every action has a clear intention. One should never be guided by Chung Myung’s thoughts.
“That’s a rather dangerous thing to say.”
Thus, Bop Jeong instead smiled. He tried to show a compassionate face that could even embrace a child that ran naked in thunder.
“Then, does Siju now admit that Heavenly Comrade Alliance and Evil Sects have indeed colluded?”
Chung Myung chuckled.
“I told you.”
“.....”
“What are you going to do about it?”
The smile that was created quickly broke, and anger appeared on Bop Jeong’s face.
How many have died under those principles?
We must not join hands with Evil Sects. We cannot discuss Chivalrousness with barbarians Outsiders. A martial artist must not sully themselves, even at the cost of death. How much blood has been spilled on the ground due to the logic of those high and mighty, who have never bled on the battlefield but only move their mouths from the rear?
What Chung Myung really couldn’t stand was that they didn’t take any responsibility for the sacrifice.
Collusion? Maybe so. In their eyes, the agreement between Hyun Jong and Jang Ilso may be seen as collusion.
Of course, there could be countless rebuttals, but there was no need.
Even if it’s not now, he’ll do as much collusion as he wants if it’s necessary.
If he could save even one more of Mount Hua’s disciples, Chung Myung would not hesitate to lick Jang Ilso’s feet. Even if the world pointed fingers at him, he could coldly mock them in return.
So, there was no reason to get worked up over this ridiculous charade.
“Say whatever you want.”
“.....”
“It will happen anyway, no matter what excuse we make. No?”
A sneer appeared on Chung Myung’s lips. That blatant ridicule pierced Bop Jeong’s heart.
“So, say whatever you want. That we are colluding with Evil Sects and trying to swallow up Kangho. Everything that happened on Plum Blossom Island was Heavenly Comrade Alliance’s arrangement.”
Chung Myung scanned Bop Jeong and the disciples of Ten Great Sects with his eyes.
“Isn’t that your way of doing things?”
“Siju! Is that something that should come out of the mouth of someone who reveres Chivalrousness?”
Bop Jeong raised his voice as if he could no longer listen. But even after hearing the shout, Chung Myung’s face was just cold.
“Chivalrousness?”
Chung Myung twitched the corners of his mouth and sneered.
“I don’t know something like that.”
“...What did you say?”
“I said I don’t know anything like that. Chivalrousness or whatever... You guys can say whatever you like. I’m just doing what I need to do.”
Chung Myung spoke coldly as he looked at Bop Jeong, who was momentarily speechless and dumbfounded.
“Do you know how to commit a sin?”
The eyes of Bop Jeong were filled with doubt at the unexpected question. And when Chung Myung gave him the answer, he just closed his eyes tightly.
“It is not doing anything. Just like you guys here.”
Serene silence flowed through the river.
There was no need to distinguish right from wrong.
Just looking at the disciples of the Ten Great Sects who cannot even look straight ahead and the disciples of Heavenly Comrade Alliance who proudly hold their heads up, it is clear who is right.
“One day, you might find yourselves in the same situation as Namgung.”
“.....”
“Try the same thing then. That you must follow principles. If you nod your head saying this is right even when your head is blown off, at least that conviction will be acknowledged.”
The bodies of the Ten Great Sects disciples trembled slightly.
“But if you can’t do that...”
The killing intent flowing from Chung Myung pierced everyone’s heart like a blade.
“Then shut your disgusting mouths and disappear. I can’t bear it anymore.”
“Siju!”
The moment Bop Jeong finally moved, Chung Myung glanced at him.
“.....”
Bop Jeong’s shoulders, which had been filled with tension, suddenly fell under that endlessly cold gaze.
“I should have killed you three years ago.”
“This....”
“Right?”
Chung Myung smiled brightly and turned around without regret.
