Chapter 27 – Ill Fate and Fated Ties (2)

Cheong-hae's expression was changing every moment as if he was in shock. So-mu comforted his shoulder with a pitiful look.

“I’m worried about you, Master.”

“He is like a father to me.”

He was the only person on his side when he was criticized and despised by the Mount Hua Sect. I couldn't control my emotions.

As the atmosphere calmed down, the quick-witted So-so kept his mouth shut and observed the situation. Il-gwang just looked out of the guest room and continued to sigh.

There was silence for a moment. After half an hour passed, Cheong-hae asked carefully.

“Is it okay if I go to Mount Hua?”

It was a question I had already expected. No one knew what will happen there. It was an area where it was impossible to predict what dangers there would be.

However, So-mu nodded without hesitation.

“Cheong-hae’s younger brother’s heart is already in Mount Hua, how can I stop him?”

It was a matter for Cheong-hae to decide on his own. But it was impossible to send it alone. Il-gwang came first and said.

“Well, I don’t have anything to do during the rest of my vacation, so if my younger brother asks, I can go with him.”

The volcano can be reached in two hours by light air. There were still two more days left on vacation, so there was plenty of time. The problem was that there might be some danger lurking.

And these two were not the only ones to send there.

“If the two commanders of Wolf Fang Squad were on leave and died as guests, the general would faint. I have no choice but to follow along, right?”

“Brothers….”

Cheong-hae bowed his head. This may be because they think they were causing a nuisance.

“Instead, promise me one thing. If the situation is not favorable, you will descend immediately. Master will not want you to die on Mount Hua.”

“Yes. Thank you.”

At that time, Il-gwang stroked his chin and asked.

“Where can I leave So-so? It might be dangerous, so I can’t take him with me.”

Everyone's eyes turned to So-so. Suso's face, noticing the atmosphere, instantly turned into a tearful expression. Water was already filling up around my eyes. As soon as it was confirmed, I was ready to burst into tore.

So-mu's thoughts did not last long. Because no matter where you were, there was no safer place than being with you.

“If you want to live in a dangerous world, you will need this kind of experience. If there is danger, you will come out right away, so there is no problem.”

Su Xiao's face brightened quickly and he hugged Su Mu's neck. Then he glared at Il-gwang with a venomous expression.

“Uncle Il-gwang is bad!”

“Huh. Well, I’m the best person here!”

Now that I had decided on my goal, there was no need to hesitate any longer.

The group left the inn and purchased three swords at the lowest price from the blacksmith shop. This was because it was not possible to brought the weapons supplied during the vacation period. As long as it was possible to emit sword energy, the quality of the weapon was not very important. Still, it was usable enough to even have a scabbard.

Meanwhile, before departure, So-so was worried. Although I was training in Gyeonggong, my level was still low and my legs were short, so I had to climb on someone's back. Since I had to go to two city visits, it was natural to want to go as easily as possible.

The bigger the size, the better the ride. So-so started to giggle next to Il-gwang, who had the back of a bull. Il-gwang said, bending his lower body as if he knew that would happen.

“Now, get on the back of your bad uncle.”

So-so kept a pouty expression as he climbed up behind Il-gwang.

“I’m riding because my uncle told me to ride!”

So-mu, who was watching them, sighed as if she was worried.

'phew… … . It's a big deal. ‘So-so was becoming more and more like Il-gwang.’

* * *

The summit of Yeonhwabong Peak on the west side of Mount Hua Mountain. It was at the foot of a mountain about a hundred miles away. A man was sitting under a pine tree, breathing heavily.

“Big….”

I pursed my lips and a moan full of pain came out. My left arm and back felt hot as if I had been burned. All the vital points were missed, but the sword images scattered here and there were distracting. horror. And his eyes were mixed with anger, and it seemed like he couldn't control his emotions.

Just two days ago, Mount Hua was covered with plum blossom buds and full of fragrance. But now, there was only a thick bloody smell, and it was not difficult to find the bodies of the monks with their limbs severed.

Killing hand. It was the only clue to those who attacked Mount Hua. A hundred people? Or two hundred? I couldn't even guess the number.

Where did these sprayed of water come pouring out in large quantities? The martial arts and techniques were clearly different from the martial arts killing gate. No, it was even more cruel and cunning. Elder Musang opened his eyes and was attacked by their surprise attack as they appeared through the darkness. The strongest man in Mount Hua was struck by a single blow.

Powerless to resist. What followed was a one-sided massacre.

The man stopped the bleeding by pressing the blood pressure tube and carefully looked around. The screamed that had been coming from everywhere since two o'clock no longer continued.

'now… … 'Does this mean I'm the only one left?'

Moon-joo's final command while screaming. It was a will to escape Mount Hua and maintain pulse.

While the plum sword swordsmen, including the elders, and the disciples blocked the assassins. Munju gave each of Mount Hua's disciples the treasures of the Mount Hua Sect and instructed them to flee. Each and every one of them was a rising martial artist worth thousands of dollars.

Miraculously, about twenty disciples succeeded in breaking through the siege. However, escaping Mount Hua was impossible from the beginning. This was because the elite soldiers of Hwiguk were already blocking all entrances to Mount Hua. Meanwhile, Yi Dae disciples had to be hunted one by one.

His eyes were fixed on a dozen plum trees outside. The cold body of Sister Baekhee was seen. It was a scene I had seen many times while running away, so there was nothing strange about it. The reason the front lip was wide open was probably because the key has been robbed.

The man carefully took out the martial arts weapon from his chest and looked at it. In the meantime, there was no time to even look at what was happening. Perhaps it was an ascending martial art that I, a student of Mount Hua Sect, have never had the opportunity to learn in my life.

Hundred and eight types of fierce wind swords. It was a low-level name.

“……fuck.”

An angry voice came out softly from the Taoist's mouth. It was true that the Mount Hua Sect boasts of the ultimate speedy swordsmanship, but it was a swordsmanship designed only for women to learn. I felt skeptical about whether I should risk my life for something like this. However, there was no way they would let him go alive even if he gave them money.

The Taoist monk, who had put the treasure in his arms again, grabbed the sword with the plum blossom pattern engraved on it. The assassins kept following him by tracking his body odor. In ordered to survive, I had to move again.

It was then. The Taoist suddenly narrowed his eyes and quickly rolled to the right. At that moment, the tree he was leaning against split open, revealing the cool blade of a sword.

‘Damn it! 'Someone's already here?'

The Taoist man ran quickly without even looking back. This was because it was clear that if we delay fighting here, other assassins will come.

There was no road ahead. I ran through the densely packed trees. The branches were ruthlessly tearing off his uniform and scratching his entire body. But there was no time to worry about such things.

After a while, a shallow cliff appeared a dozen or so below. Even if it fell, there will be no injury. Without hesitation, the Taoist took a short leap towards the cliff.

And just as he was disappearing from sight, the spray appeared from the darkness. Cool eyes shone through the black covering of the whole body. He ran without stopping and kicked the ground towards the cliff where the Taoist monk had disappeared.

After a while, the spray began to descend. Suddenly, something shot up from underneath the cliff. Salsu's eyes shook rapidly as he looked at it. How could they have expected that the Taoist monk would hide by holding on to the cliff instead of jumping off? In addition, a fine milky-white sheen fluttered around the blade of the Taoist sword. I can't believe someone like this great disciple was releasing sword energy.

The sword blade of the Taoist sword mercilessly cut the defenseless abdomen from bottom to top.

Sigh-!

The Mount Hua Sect group's uniforms were stained with blood due to the spewing blood, but there was no time to worry about that. The Taoist monk who quickly climbed up the hill sighed and looked around.

'phew. In the end, the humiliation of that day was what saved my life.’

The identity of the Taoist master was Hyeonjeong, a great disciple of the Mount Hua Sect.

The humiliation suffered by Il-gwang at Hwayang Tavern brought about a big change in him. From that day on, I abandoned all aspects of my life and devoted myself solely to training. As a result, his martial arts skills soared to the point where even his greatest disciples had few opponents.

‘Soon they will smell blood and come rushing in.’

An excellent sprayer has a keen sense of smell and can smell the scent of blood from fifty miles away. A peak expert can detect a greater distance than that. There was no time to hesitate. After catching her breath, Hyeonjeong turned to the right and continued running.

Although he ran for half an hour, his expression did not brighten at all. No, it got even darker. This was because he felt someone chasing him from behind a little while ago. At that moment, another sprayer appeared from the front.

‘I didn’t go through so much trouble just to die here!’

It was unfair. I had no desire to die like this at all. Hyeonjeong gritted her teeth and kicked off the ground and leaped to this height. You can see the spray of water beneath your feet.

Plum Blossom Sword Technique Yukchosik Bihwarangyeok .

The tip of Hyeonjeong's sword drew a plum blossom and rushed toward the ground. An eerie beam of light was shooting high into the sky from the assassin's sword.

Kaan-!

One clash. Although we reached equal numbers, we were deprived of any means of escape.

Hyeonjeong got down on the ground and quickly adjusted her posture. This was because two shooters were attacking again from the left and right. As the three human figures mixed together, metallic sounds flew and shook in all directions.

Kakakakang-!!!

It was too much for two people. It was natural that as time went by, my limbs became a little more difficult. Moreover, the sound of them fighting was calling for another killing spree. I saw a masked person running in a straight line from twenty chapters away.

With three people, it was impossible to even pull away. Hyeonjeong's eyes were stained with despair.

‘It’s a disaster.’

There was no way to escape. A new masked person attempted a leap from a distance of three feet. At a glance, it seemed stronger than those he was currently facing. A dark shadow was cast on Hyeonjeong's face as she prepared for the end.

It was then. A ray of light rushed in from somewhere, approaching like lightning towards the flying masked man. The man who appeared out of nowhere suddenly threw a side kick into the masked man's waist.

Kwaang-!

The masked person flew backwards faster than the speed at which he flew in. This was clearly the lobular removal method of the Mount Hua Sect. The assassins got away from Hyeonjeong and looked at the situation due to the sudden surprise attack.

Hyeonjeong looked for the person who saved her with her own eyes. It was a familiar face.

“Hyeonjeong’s execution!”

Unbelievably, the person who saved him was Cheong-hae. It was clear that this was the Cheong-hae that he had despised and ignored in the Mount Hua Sect.

“You have to ask….”

Hyeonjeong had mixed emotions and her eyes became red.

At that time, another familiar man flew in here. A bald man with a bear-like physique and a ferocious look. He was an ignorant bastard who brought an indelible shame upon himself.

Undried blood stains were visible on their blades. You've probably already encountered a few assassins on your way here.

However, there was no trace of tension on their faces. Although he was confident that he had become so strong, they had become even more monsters.

These three immediately formed a pum shape and turned their backs to each other. Il-gwang shouted towards the back.

“Master Taoist! You held up pretty well, huh? I guess you came to your senses after getting beaten up?”

Hyeonjeong's eyebrows twitched, but soon returned to their original state. This was because it was not a situation where pride could be considered.

“Thank you….”

And under the plum tree about a dozen miles away from here. Before I knew it, So-so had moved onto So-mu's shoulder and was covering his eyes with his two small hands. It was just pretending to cover it up. So-so was secretly watching and cheering on his uncles through the gap between his fingers.

So-mu was expressionless and didn’t even move a muscle. It wasn't because I didn't want to help the crew. This was because a creepy aura was slightly detected not far away. They were wary of him approaching.

He was never someone to be taken lightly. Moreover, Salsu could not let down his guard even for a moment. He carefully lowered So-so from his shoulder and held him in his left arm.

“Cover your eyes and hold on tight, So-so.”
