    Hudududuk!

    It was a scene where perfectly fine people instantly turned into bloody pus-filled lumps scattered in all directions. The ground was soaked with blood, chunks of flesh flew everywhere, and shattered weapons lay strewn about randomly.

    If it had only been ordinary martial artists at the commonly described third-rate level, they wouldn’t have been so shocked.

    But among them were those with considerable skill, and even those who could be called experts. Even masters of prestigious orthodox sects melted into bloody pus and died immediately upon being grazed by Asura World Annihilation Soul’s Asura Scripture. The experts who came from the Baek Li Family were no exception.

    Only a small number with strong mental fortitude who immediately cut off their own limbs grazed by Asura Scripture survived.

    Splish.

    Jin Ja-gang stepped on the blood scattered by dozens of people as he approached the Righteous Alliance martial artists.

    He raised his hand to throw Asura Scripture at the martial artists who weren’t retreating.

    Asura Scripture fluttered up into the air.

    Flinch! The Righteous Alliance martial artists’ expressions hardened.

    They thought it wasn’t a matter of landing one strike on Jin Ja-gang or not. They couldn’t even properly approach Jin Ja-gang. Instead, only they died one after another like bamboo shoots after rain.

    Jin Ja-gang didn’t extend Asura Scripture right away.

    The lengths of Asura Scripture varied. They had scraped against bones and weapons so much that they were broken and rough. Too much human blood and fat had clumped on them, making them dull. If they collided with even sword energy once, they would break off.

    Jin Ja-gang walked toward the martial artists with Asura Scripture floating.

    The martial artists hesitated and retreated little by little. Someone, an expert, had to block at least once for them to rush together and land a strike or do anything.

    But there was someone who slipped and fell while retreating in front.

    “Heook!”

    A shallow-faced man whose affiliation was unknown dropped even his blade and fell on his bottom. The man saw Jin Ja-gang who had approached right in front and immediately prostrated himself, bowing his head.

    “Please spare me! Please spare me, Hero!”

    Jin Ja-gang looked down at the man briefly then just passed by.

    The man was trembling, but when Jin Ja-gang passed, he raised his head. Jin Ja-gang’s back, entirely stained with blood, entered his view.

    The man was conflicted. The sight of Jin Ja-gang limping and staggering weakly made the temptation even more intense. He looked like someone who would collapse from pain to anyone.

    Gulp.

    The man swallowed dry saliva then gritted his teeth. He slowly grabbed the handle of the dropped blade and stood up without making a sound. Jin Ja-gang’s back was completely defenseless.

    The man silently raised his blade behind Jin Ja-gang’s back.

    Just like this, if he just brings it down! Not one hundred taels, but if luck is good, one thousand gold taels…! If he doesn’t give money to his affiliated sect and takes it all himself, a whole two thousand taels!

    The man’s eyes widened greatly, filled with greed.

    However, because the man had dropped his blade on the ground and picked it up, a drop of blood stuck on the blade’s handle slipped and fell.

    The man’s eyes went toward the falling blood drop.

    The blood drop fell on the ground and caused a small ripple.

    Drip…

    “…!”

    The man’s pupils convulsed.

    The man raised his pupils to look at Jin Ja-gang.

    Jin Ja-gang had turned his head at some point and was staring at the man. The man whose eyes met Jin Ja-gang’s had all his body hair stand on end. Instantly sweat formed on his face and his body froze.

    Jin Ja-gang raised his arm and made a motion of pulling something.

    “Keuk?”

    The man only then realized that an invisible thread was wrapped around his neck. It wasn’t set just now. It was a thread already set when he passed by him.

    “He, Hero…!”

    The man shouted urgently, but Jin Ja-gang had already clenched his fist.

    Crackle!

    Because Asura Scripture was dull, the man’s neck was roughly torn and rolled off.

    Jin Ja-gang removed and threw away Asura Scripture’s loop. Then instead picked up two blades that had fallen on the ground.

    He rubbed and wiped the blood on the handles and gripped them in his hands.

    Jin Ja-gang’s gaze passed the Righteous Alliance martial artists blocking in front and headed toward Baek Li-jung standing behind them.

    Jin Ja-gang raised his blade and pointed at Baek Li-jung. Then pointed across at the blocking martial artists.

    “You won’t get the money.”

    It was something he said before.

    That if he killed Baek Li-jung, they wouldn’t get money.

    But the tone was slightly different from before, giving a bewildering feeling.

    The Righteous Alliance martial artists saw that Jin Ja-gang’s blade tip was pointed at them and only then realized.

    Not getting money wasn’t only when Baek Li-jung died.

    They also wouldn’t receive money when they themselves died!

    Jin Ja-gang’s tremendous spirit of killing all hundreds.

    The Righteous Alliance martial artists felt their knees weaken.

    Seeing him meticulously kill even that one person just now, they lost confidence in whether they could really survive from here.

    The atmosphere became chilly.

    From just one person’s spirit, hundreds were dispirited.

    “You bastard!”

    An elderly expert from Kongtong Sect who couldn’t stand it stepped forward, white hair flying.

    “You dare take the martial world lightly! Just because you obtained powerful martial arts at a young age, do you see nothing!”

    Jin Ja-gang looked at the elderly expert coldly.

    “Who are you?”

    Urk!

    The elderly expert’s face twisted.

    Jin Ja-gang’s one comment just now crushed the elderly expert’s pride. Wasn’t the tone saying he had no presence, or why interfere when he wasn’t at a level to be compared to him!

    “This old one is from Kongtong Sect…!”

    “Enough.”

    Jin Ja-gang gestured his blade tip toward the elderly expert.

    “Seeing you there, I roughly know what kind of person you are. Come at me.”

    The elderly expert’s face reddened. To fall for that provocation felt bad as if listening to Jin Ja-gang’s words, but to ignore the provocation, wouldn’t it look like he was staying still because he feared Jin Ja-gang!

    His mood went up and down from just a few words and his emotions were hurt.

    The elderly expert charged angrily holding his saber and shouted.

    “Even if this old one is just a commoner of the martial world, I cannot endure such insult! You bastard!”

    Saber energy surrounded the elderly expert’s saber and bright rays extended powerfully. A trajectory of a saber swung thousands, tens of thousands of times. The saber energy sliced Jin Ja-gang vertically.

    Jin Ja-gang raised his blade and forcefully drew down in exactly the same trajectory. It was the Great Shout of Tiger Energy of Bosam Sect saber technique used after a long time. Cracks formed in the common blade that couldn’t handle Jin Ja-gang’s internal energy. Though there was no saber energy, it was much heavier than the elderly expert’s saber which contained saber energy.

    Kwachang!

    The elderly expert’s saber energy that collided in a straight trajectory shattered and the saber broke off as is. Since Jin Ja-gang’s saber already had cracks, it exploded and burst as if self-destructing.

    Pypypypyok!

    “Kreok!”

    The shattered saber fragments embedded all over the elderly expert’s body. They weren’t fatal wounds enough to kill. However, the shock received from being pushed back in internal energy made the elderly expert unable to move.

    Jin Ja-gang raised the blade that had half broken off and flew away, stabbing it into the elderly expert’s heart. The elderly expert knelt, spurting blood. Jin Ja-gang struck the elderly expert’s neck with the opposite blade.

    The Righteous Alliance martial artists got goosebumps. Jin Ja-gang’s attitude of definitely striking the neck even though the heart had already ruptured and would die anyway. That made it so there was no one who thought they might be able to survive from Jin Ja-gang even a little.

    Jin Ja-gang picked up another weapon lying around again. Then pointed at one person among the Righteous Alliance martial artists.

    “That person over there seems to have had something they wanted to say to me as well.”

    The martial artist turned pale and shook his head without realizing.

    “No! No! I never…”

    The martial artist couldn’t finish speaking and his neck flew off.

    What struck that martial artist’s neck wasn’t Jin Ja-gang but another person who was behind him.

    “Such a cowardly person deserves to die! What on earth are you all doing! With hundreds of adults facing one youngster. How can the Righteous Alliance establish the foundation of protecting the orthodox path in the martial world like this!”

    A middle-aged expert who looked higher in martial status than the earlier elderly expert.

    However, Jin Ja-gang didn’t even ask who he was this time.

    “…”

    He just stared blankly at the middle-aged expert.

    “…”

    “…”

    The Righteous Alliance martial artists felt a strange feeling.

    Especially the middle-aged expert was more flustered.

    He asked who he was just now, but why isn’t he asking this time?

    Jin Ja-gang had to ask who he was for this side to speak again, and only then would conversation flow back and forth, wouldn’t it? Not asking anything itself made the middle-aged expert very embarrassed.

    He even just struck his own ally’s neck!

    Because Jin Ja-gang stayed still, the Righteous Alliance martial artists’ eyes who were curious about what he would say and what action he would take began to change.

    Come to think of it, who is that person to strike an ally’s neck carelessly?

    The middle-aged expert swallowed dry saliva. Somehow it seemed he was the one cornered. The middle-aged expert tried to speak first in confusion.

    However, he remembered that Jin Ja-gang had blocked the elderly expert’s answer earlier.

    If he said “Enough” this time too, he would become an idiot who tried to make excuses but couldn’t even do that.

    “Urrgh…”

    The middle-aged expert felt like he had fallen into a trap.

    ‘What is this!’

    Cold sweat came out.

    He felt he understood belatedly. Jin Ja-gang had completely seized control of the atmosphere here. That’s why he could manipulate hundreds with simple silence alone.

    What on earth was he trying to step forward and do before Poison Dragon with such meticulous scheming?

    Fortunately, what saved him was Baek Li-jung.

    “Brothers!”

    Knowing the atmosphere would crumble like a ragtag group if it deteriorated further, Baek Li-jung changed the topic with a heavy tone.

    “Today in this place… we all may bury our bones to this one evil person. However! We must show that the justice of the martial world has not disappeared. That is the duty of us orthodox path people living now.”

    Baek Li Family experts shouted.

    “Right!”

    “It’s what we must do!”

    Baek Li-jung’s one comment at least revived the dying embers again. The Righteous Alliance martial artists bit their lower lips and burned their fighting spirit against Jin Ja-gang.

    However, Jin Ja-gang mocked those words.

    “This time you’re appealing to non-existent justice? Won’t money work?”

    The Righteous Alliance martial artists shouted.

    “Money isn’t the priority! A killing maniac like you must die for the martial world!”

    “Even if we all die, we still have our brothers!”

    “Our disciples, our seniors! As long as the seed of the orthodox path doesn’t dry up, they will continue to follow us and strike you!”

    Twitch.

    Jin Ja-gang’s eyebrows moved.

    Those words just now touched Jin Ja-gang’s reverse scale.

    Jin Ja-gang asked quietly.

    “If I kill you… your masters and brothers, disciples will step forward… is that it?”

    “That’s right!”

    “Until you die! Until you and the entire Tang Clan are erased, we won’t stop!”

    Jin Ja-gang’s eyes opened wide. The blood drops flowing from wounds all over his body climbed back up his body in reverse. His hair stood up.

    Killing intent flew in all directions like needles.

    “Ah!”

    The Righteous Alliance martial artists nearby raised their arms in surprise.

    Prick!

    Red dots formed on the exposed arms and legs of the Righteous Alliance martial artists. Thread-like blood flowed immediately.

    “What, what is it!”

    When they rubbed wondering if they were hit by hidden weapons, only blood smeared and there was nothing.

    But the Righteous Alliance martial artists couldn’t endure as it felt like thousands, tens of thousands of needles were flying. They continuously stepped back.

    It was killing intent.

    Jin Ja-gang’s killing intent.

    Jin Ja-gang’s killing intent reached the extreme. Finally, killing intent leaped over all that and materialized, inflicting substantial damage!

    The Righteous Alliance martial artists were shocked. They had heard that killing intent could injure the body but had never seen it.

    Jin Ja-gang said.

    “Someone said… that the system must be reformed so innocent people don’t suffer damage… and only gather and kill the contaminated ones… But you know.”

    Jin Ja-gang paused briefly then continued.

    “I don’t care.”

    Jin Ja-gang said with chilling eyes, baring his teeth.

    “I’ll kill them all. I’ll kill you, and when your masters and brothers come, I’ll kill them too. Until everyone who will succeed you in the martial world disappears.”
