Absolute Regression - Chapter 287
Episode 287 Who handled that matter?
There was silence.
Jinpaecheon, made of wood, was looking at the sword dance. Because there was no facial expression, it gave a more eerie and intense feeling.
Susssut.
The wooden doll returned to its original size as if leaving the stage at the end of the curtain.
Geommugeuk asked, looking at Baek Cheon-gyeong beyond the wooden doll that had fallen on the floor.
“Did the Murim lord exterminate your family?”
Geommugeuk’s voice trembled. Although he had experienced all kinds of things, this incident was shocking.
On the other hand, Baek Cheon-gyeong was enjoying the reactions of the sword dance.
Now, the world’s smartest demonic cult leader! What will you say now?
“why? “Don’t you believe that the Murim Lord did such a thing?”
Geomgeuk spoke firmly.
“That’s right. I can’t believe it. Because the leader I saw was not the kind of person who would do such a thing.”
Although Jin Feicheon was certainly a renegade person, he was not the type of person who would exterminate a family. No matter how much people don’t know about it, that Jin Feicheon did something like that? no. That can’t be possible.
“Okay then, why did the leader do such a thing?”
Bai Tianqing refused to answer.
“I’ve had enough of what I wanted to say.”
As if the next conversation was only possible by blocking this attack, Baek Cheon-gyeong used the Wooden Celestial Soul Art again.
Susssut.
This time, the three dolls grew larger.
Those slowly walking out had different movements and momentum from the dolls in front of them.
I could understand the sword dance. It is a special doll among dolls. In human terms, it is not just a cilantro, but a special cilantro.
Even though it was a stronger enemy, Geommugeuk returned the sword to its scabbard.
The moment when Baek Cheon-gyeong gave a puzzled look.
Easy profit.
The sword dance first rushed to Myeongwangbo. In the blink of an eye, Geommugeuk moved through space and threw out his fist.
Boom!
Qarring!
A thunderclap sounded along with an explosion of sound. Without even making a single proper attack, the entire head of the doll standing in the middle was blown off.
The best martial arts skill, the Black Fortune Sura, was demonstrated.
The other two dolls were completely unfazed and attacked.
Shhh! Hiss!
Two swords flew in, aiming for Geommugeuk’s blood vessel.
‘Killed it!’
The attack was fast and accurate enough that Baek Cheon-gyeong had this illusion.
The exact moment when two swords pierced Geommugeuk’s body!
The new form of sword dance has disappeared.
‘Lee Hyung-hwan-wi!’
At the same time, a thunderclap erupted, drowning out Baek Cheon-gyeong’s surprise.
Crumbling!
A second thunderclap erupted. Before I knew it, the head of the doll on the left was exploding.
Despite the flying debris, the last doll attacked without stopping at all.
But the sword dance was no longer there. What was revealed this time was a dark intelligence.
Crumbling!
The third thunder sounded even louder, and the last doll’s head was shattered. No matter how well trained a hunting dog is, it cannot catch a tiger. All three were put to an end with one hit.
The three dolls also returned to their original size and fell to the floor.
Bai Qianqing’s whole body trembled. I never imagined I would feel this much fear here. Not anywhere else, but here, full of forests and dolls.
Geommugeuk picked up the cut doll again.
“These dolls are different.”
“It was different. “You made it ordinary.”
“I didn’t want to waste time.”
“You are trying to make my ten years of time wasted.”
Then Geommugeuk looked into his eyes and said.
“What is Gene Soger’s time? Have you thought about her past and the rest of her days?”
There was definitely something that bothered me when I thought about Jin Ha-ryeong. But there was anger before that.
“The time for my family who died unjustly! Time with my brother, sister-in-law, and nephews! What about the time spent on the children my nephew gave birth to? Can you even imagine? The heart of the parents who died holding their children to protect them! How I felt when I unfolded those bloody swaddles! In that swaddle! “You don’t know what I saw in that swaddle!”
Baek Cheon-gyeong’s eyes were bloodshot.
Ssssssut.
His anger was reflected in the doll growing bigger again.
This time it was two dolls. As the number decreased, more special prayers were revealed.
This time, the two dolls attacked first. They were really fast and must have been made to imitate the masters of the quick sword.
It was so fast that even Baek Tian-gyeong, who created the two dolls, could not clearly see them fighting.
Since I couldn’t see any movement, all I could hear was sound. The sound of swords clashing with swords was heard in succession, and what ended up being three different sounds.
Easy profit! Suddenly! Slam!
The moment the sword of Geommugeuk goes back into its sheath!
Tuk tuk!
At the same time, the heads of the two dolls fell and rolled on the floor.
The flying sword method, the quick sword method, the Zeo style, and the Changcheon style were demonstrated.
It’s been a while since I’ve used Chang Cheon-sik, and it’s faster than before. Even with the same Twelve Great Stars, as their level gradually matures, they become more powerful.
Baek Cheon-gyeong was so surprised that he couldn’t say anything.
No matter how small the Demonic Cult leader is, he cannot neutralize the attack of this Quick Sword doll so quickly. I knew at least five hundred people would come and go. I expected that he would not be able to withstand the sword dance in this fight and would be seriously injured.
The reaction of the sword dance was even more surprising. He could have boasted about his martial arts skills, but he didn’t even mention them. He seemed to think that a fight like this was meaningless. His only interest was his own life.
“Please answer the question I asked earlier. Why did the leader exterminate your family?”
“Why is it so important to you? Why does it matter whether the leader did it because he was old or bored? What if the Murim Lord is a hypocrite? What if he isn’t? “Anyway, you’re just planning on getting rid of all of you Demon Cult bastards and eating this entire Wulin, right?”
“Even if you eat it, you will have to cut out the rotten parts and eat it. So tell me.”
It was expressed as being intentionally rotten. Whatever the truth of this incident was, Baek Cheon-gyeong believed that.
“Did you see it yourself?”
“Are you trying to say that it wasn’t the Murim Lord’s doing because you didn’t see it in person?”
Anger was mixed with every word he said. Because I knew better than anyone how great his anger would be, Geommugeuk calmly soothed his emotions.
“I am not on the side of the Murim Alliance. “I’m just curious about the truth.”
“If you are not on the side of the Murim Alliance, why are you in front of me?”
It’s because of fire weapons. If I hadn’t known it was related to fire weapons, I wouldn’t have approached him like this.
“It’s because of Jean Sozer.”
Baek Cheon-gyeong snorted once, but eventually he answered.
“I didn’t see it in person. When I came back, it was already….”
Baek Cheon-gyeong was speechless as he remembered that moment.
“But why are you so sure that it was the Lord’s doing?”
“Someone saw him.”
“Who?”
“He is the head of our family. He was dying, covered in blood. Those were the last words the person left. “The beast is the Murim lord.”
Geomgeuk didn’t say anything. The Murim Lord may or may not have killed him. Because you can never know what’s inside people.
However, the reason to keep in mind the possibility that this is not the case is because Baek Cheon-gyeong is a person who will later follow Hwamu-gi.
“No matter how much you think about it, there is no reason for the leader to exterminate your family…”
At that moment, one thought crossed Geommugeuk’s head.
The sword dance reminded me of something I had forgotten. The lord had one reason to exterminate them.
“You killed the lord’s son and daughter-in-law!”
Baek Cheon-gyeong’s expression hardened and he said nothing. I could tell from his reaction.
“You knew.”
“If I had known, would his punishment be lessened? “If you want revenge, you should only do it to the person who did it. Why did you kill everyone?”
His plea was justified. The sadness of losing a child is understandable, but it was clearly wrong to destroy the other family.
“But I have one question. Then why did Maengju spare you? “It’s obvious that he’s going to seek revenge like this.”
“After that incident, I was also treated as dead.”
He entered the Murim Alliance as a new member.
“Who handled those things? “Did you do it yourself?”
It involves faking his death and assuming a new identity to become the master of the Murim Lord’s grandson. Even if our school’s Tongcheongak takes great care, it will not be an easy task.
“of course.”
His answer came after hesitation. It means lie. Geommugeuk was sure that someone was behind him.
“so? “What do you want to say?”
Geommugeuk said something surprising.
“What if it wasn’t the Lord’s doing?”
“!”
“What if some third party is involved? “What if I deceived you and deceived the leader?”
An even more surprising comment was added to Baek Cheon-gyeong, who was frowning. If the existence of fire weapons had not been known, this assumption would not have been made. However, the leader’s personality and the existence of fire weapons gave rise to this assumption.
“What if the deaths of the leader’s son and his wife were all planned from the beginning?”
Baek Cheon-gyeong seemed shocked and was dazed for a moment. It was something I had never thought about before. What is this guy talking about? It’s nonsense.
“So what are you trying to get?”
The final conclusion made by Geommugeuk.
“you.”
“!”
“You, driven by revenge, have endured it for ten years and are deeply entrenched in the Murim Alliance. “You are the one who will become the decisive sword that will one day kill the leader.”
Deadly energy gushed out from Baek Cheon-gyeong’s body. He denied everything. No, I had no choice but to deny it. If Geommugeuk’s words are true, what he has done over the past ten years has been foolishness. Because the doll was carved from a doll.
“What do you know? Do you think that if you say anything with your fluttering snout, it is just words? “What do you know!”
It was anger born of embarrassment. What if that statement is true? That deep anxiety was swirling around him. If the words had come from someone else’s mouth, I wouldn’t have paid any attention. He would have dismissed it as something he made up to shake himself up.
However, it was a sword dance speech that overwhelms oneself with martial arts. These were words from the mouth of a man so extraordinary that he advanced his own plans.
Trees began to grow through surprise, fear, and anxiety.
Tree branches grew from the ground around the two people standing.
It wasn’t an ordinary tree. Trees that could not be cut with a sword were displaying their secret skills in the wood carving technique. The growing trees made the walls and ceiling. There was nowhere to run. Two people faced off in an enclosed space surrounded by trees.
Other tree branches wrapped around Baek Cheon-gyeong’s body, creating armor. Here, even swords and swords cannot cut through this armor.
“You ruined everything. Jin Ha-ryeong is going to die because of you.”
Geommugeuk calmly asked him.
“What did you say to me earlier? Why didn’t you shout out that you didn’t just kill the person involved, but also killed his family? But what are you doing now?”
“Because they did it first!”
“You are the one who started the work, right?”
No, maybe it was a fire weapon.
“Please release Jin Sozer. “I know you didn’t originally plan to kill her.”
A vine that came up from the ground climbed up Geommugeuk’s feet. Then, it slowly began to tie up my entire body so that I could not move.
“The person who helped you infiltrate the Murim Alliance planned all of this.”
I saw the sword dance. Baek Cheon-gyeong’s eyes are shaking. The tree branches climbing up my body stopped for a moment. There was definitely someone there.
“Tell me who it is.”
“does not exist! There is no such person! “Are you looking at me like a fool?”
Other trees grew around Geommugeuk and turned into long spears. Aimed like octopus feet, they stabbed the sword dance from all directions as quickly as a scorpion’s tail.
Geommugeuk used self-defense skills to block the attack.
Empty! Teuong! Empty!
The wooden spear hit the self-defense device and made a clanging sound.
Even if you cut it with a sword, it grew again, and even if it broke when it hit a self-defense device, another tree grew and attacked. They have been constantly attacking to tear up their self-defense skills. The only way to stop this attack was to kill Baek Cheon-gyeong hidden in the armor.
Empty! Boom! Teuong!
Attack in space. An attack several times stronger than from outside was coming.
“It’s not too late. Let’s take on him with me!”
Baek Cheon-gyeong was worried because he felt the sincerity of the sword dance. What if what he says is true?
“please! “Don’t let me kill you.”
But in the end, he did not believe in sword dance.
Baek Cheon-gyeong raised his internal strength to the limit. Blood flowed from his mouth, but it didn’t stop. A dozen spears struck only one point, the heart of the sword dance.
Empty! Teuong! Empty!
If this continues, self-defense will eventually be broken.
“If you die, a war with the Demon Cult will break out. Even if I can’t kill him, the Heavenly Demon will kill him.”
The wooden windows were merged into one. The color that changed to a darker color was the final attack in which all of Baek Cheon-gyeong’s inner strength would be poured into. At least in this space, that attack will no longer be blocked.
I love you so much!
It flew towards the heart of the sword dance.
Right at that moment!
Flash!
The flying wooden spear stopped in front of Geommugeuk’s heart. Immediately, the spear’s spirit disappeared and it fell to the floor.
There were five people standing in front of the sword dance in the distance.
Four demons were standing around Baek Cheon-gyeong. The Nine Fire Magic Gong’s first method of destruction was demonstrated.
The wooden armor, which could not be cut by sword energy, was cut and began to fall to the ground. His martial arts, which were based on magic, could not block the nine-fire magic.
When the evil spirits disappeared, Baek Cheon-gyeong’s entire body was soaked in blood.
Baek Cheon-gyeong looked at the sword dance with blank eyes. He felt that he had little time left.
Geommugeuk took out the doll from his arms. It was the same doll whose face I had said I would cut myself.
And now, a face was carved into the doll. While visiting his workshop over the past few days, Geommugeuk carved Hwamugi’s face.
“Was he this man?”
