Episode 146: The noble hero of the four factions (2)
He did not avoid the rumors. I just pointed my head in the direction the finger was coming from.
Crump-!
It was the sound of the swordsman’s index finger breaking as he tried to point at the acupuncture point.
“Ugh!”
Is it because Myeong-saek was an elite expert of Hwasan? All there was was a small moan.
Above all, the reason there was no scream was because confusion preceded pain.
Why are his fingers bent at such a strange angle? I couldn’t possibly understand what was happening.
“What on earth is this....”
“I’m going in now, so don’t stop me. all right?”
Yu Seol walked away without even looking at him.
The purpose of coming here is to lure the enemies positioned near the temple entrance to a designated location. But the mission had long since been erased from my mind.
At this moment, Yu Seol’s eyes were burning with the will and arrogance to go inside.
thud-!
Yu Seol’s shoulder pushed against the Taoist’s lower chest.
The small girl pushed the plum blossom sword away with her strength. A master of the Murim League who possesses the ultimate in martial arts.
The Taoist monk who had been pushed out suddenly realized that something was clearly wrong.
‘...I was pushed out of power?’
There was no longer any doubt. The child in front of me is a martial artist disguised as a natural person. He was also an expert whose level could not be guessed.
Something had to be done, and his worries did not last long.
Isn’t it right now that he is showing his back? And that too in a state of complete defenselessness.
Because of the prestige of the Hwasan Sect, they could not retreat like this.
‘After defeating the little boy with one blow, he subdues the old man.’
That was the conclusion the Taoist reached in a short period of time.
There was no time to draw the sword. His hand reached out to strike Yuseol’s backside.
There was no doubt about success this time. Because it was a blow that was powerful enough to pierce a tree.
But his plan was thwarted as soon as it began.
Up!
Another hand appeared from somewhere and grabbed the Taoist’s hand.
When I looked to the side, the old man’s mouth was smiling beneath the bamboo ribs.
The Taoist’s heart sank at the goosebumps-inducing laughter.
What kind of situation is this again? The opponent’s grip was so strong that it felt like my knuckles would be crushed.
“...Ugh.”
At that moment, Jeonghye’s other hand rested on the monk’s head. There wasn’t even a chance to escape.
I wanted to ask my colleagues around me for help, but now I didn’t even have the chance.
Because his face was already falling towards the other person’s knees.
Quang-!!
The apostate monk’s knee hit his face mercilessly.
With just one hit, Maehwageomsu’s eyes were opened and he collapsed.
Slurp-!
“What is it?”
“What’s going on?”
Masters who had been resting throughout the temple began to flock to the entrance.
There, a monster wearing a bamboo hat was dancing, shaking his shoulders.
“Fuhihi. Seol is angry~ If you stop it, everyone will die~”
There was no provocation like this.
Anger appeared on the faces of everyone who watched it.
The Taoist monk guarding the entrance collapsed without knowing what was going on, but there was not a single person who was nervous.
There are many prominent experts around, so what is there to be afraid of?
“Yes you guy!!”
An old expert wearing a blue Taoist robe kicked the ground.
Light and agile as a feather. It was Biryubo (飛流步), known as the divine law of the Cheongseong faction.
At that moment, Jeonghye’s new model slid at a strange angle and moved in front of Yoo Seol.
Those who were watching were surprised by the strange movement.
Kuuk-!
In the blink of an eye, Jeonghye’s hand was gripping the other person’s neck. It was a movement as fast as lightning.
Absurdly, the elder of the Qingcheng sect was subdued without even a single resistance.
“You...”
The captured old Taoist looked in disbelief. He must have recognized Jeonghye’s face revealed beneath the bamboo ribs.
“Hmm. Do you know who your brother is?”
His fist, advancing toward the front, was engulfed in dark red energy. It was so powerful that it could literally collapse a mountain.
Instead of fighting back, Jeonghye unfolded the Great Naishinbeop and took a quick step back.
And at the spot where he was, a mysterious monster was approaching with his fist outstretched.
It looked like a rock colliding with a small chestnut.
The results that followed were beyond imagination.
Kwaaaaang-!!!
Someone’s groan came out amidst the tremendous roar.
“Ugh!”
Kwon Hwang, whose posture had collapsed, was staggering backwards. On the other hand, Yoo Seol did not take a single step back.
Everyone watching was astonished.
Gwon Hwang was overwhelmingly pushed back. And that too from the fist.
The thought that he would be defeated was deeply ingrained in everyone’s minds.
At that time, an old expert who was the first to come to his senses shouted urgently.
“Everyone attack at the same time!!”
It was no longer a situation to worry about saving face.
More than 50 elite members of the political faction from all directions began to narrow the distance.
And that moment.
Yu Seol and Jeong Hye’s entire bodies were simultaneously engulfed in golden light.
Grumbling!
It was near Bodhidharma Station and the Buddhist Lion God.
The only difference is that there is a head light on the head of the eum-gae.
The two faced each other’s backs and raised their fists at the same time.
“They couldn’t even offer Buddhist prayers... They all died.”
“Fuhihihi!”
Soon, a breathtaking fight began centered around the two.
Kwakwang-!! Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-!!!
Each and every one of them was a fearsome expert who could wield powerful techniques.
Dazzling flashes of light continued to flash, and strong winds continued to swirl.
* * *
The peak opposite where Geumyangsa Temple is located.
The elders of Sapa who had gathered in one place to watch this scene had their mouths wide open.
“What on earth is going on?”
“...Why are the people who went to lure you charging?”
I sent the two strongest members of the group to lure them here safely. But how can it be said that it crawls into Yongdamhohyeol (龙潭虎穴) on its own feet?
It was a situation that was completely incomprehensible to common sense.
What was even more surprising was that there wasn’t even an inch of difference between the two of them.
“Was the Yin Kai Great Co-op really that strong?”
“At that level, I am not at the level of Hwagyeong. Maybe...”
“...No way?”
A beautiful landscape called the realm of absolute supremacy. It was a semi-seonjik (半仙之境) that only noble and great beings who had achieved the pinnacle of martial arts could reach.
If Yin Kai was not such an expert, there was no way to explain the current situation.
The elders of Sapa were thrilled by Eum-gae’s peerless dance.
“That can’t be possible....”
“Hyeon-gyeong. “This is probably the first time in the history of Sapa.”
While everyone was surprised, Baek-gyu pretended not to notice and looked the other way.
And Eugene San was putting his hand on his forehead as if he had a headache.
‘If one person loses control, I told them to hold it from the side.’
Even without looking, it was clear what happened. Rather than trying to stop them, they probably encouraged each other to escalate the situation.
It was the result of a combination of a granddaughter with strong pride and a crazy monk who couldn’t decide between the two.
With the situation like this, it was no time to sit still. The only thought that engulfed his mind was that he had to quickly go help his granddaughter.
Yu Jin-san quickly grabbed the twin dragon spears he had brought with him with both hands.
“How long are you going to just watch!?”
The elders of Sapa have finally come to their senses.
I never dreamed of a head-to-head match, but now it was a different story.
Baekgyu was the first to shout, pulling out a pair of swords from his belt.
“Whatever the operation is, let’s go and wipe everything out!”
Wasn’t this a situation where we could attack the backs of the struggling political factions? It was truly a golden opportunity that would never happen again.
The eight experts, including you and me, began to throw their weight around.
And by the time they were running.
First, the head of the Black Myo Sect, who was hiding in the temple, had already turned into a shadow and started slashing.
