Dark and Light Martial Emperor - Chapter 681

◈Episode 681.

Where does blood flow (6)

Why?

Guyun thought. The world seems to have slowed down.

Perhaps that was why I could clearly see the face of the executioner running towards me.

Wrinkles, facial contour, expression, eyes.

And even the emotions contained within it.

‘execution.’

Guyun couldn’t figure out why Yeogwang was doing that.

But I always had some sense of anxiety. Yeo Gwang was strong and strong, but he was also a person with quite extreme sides.

However, he usually controlled his mind well, and although he may have had a somewhat arrogant personality, his love for Jongnam was as great as anyone else, so the literary men under his command feared and respected Yeogwang at the same time.

So Guyun tried to relax.

Even though the executioners did not know each other, I wanted to show the various sides of adults to my young disciples. Among Jongnam, there are adults who are hard and harsh like Yeo-gwang, and there are also adults who are full of consultation and strictness like Jang Mun-in.

Then what about yourself?

Although he was naturally hot-tempered and not serious, he had to become a laid-back and patient adult. Although no one told him to, he thought he had to change himself.

Now, thirty years later, Guyun could barely remember what his original nature was like. It was a great change.

Is that why?

I felt myself calm despite Yeogwang’s expression and his unexplained anger.

Even while he was watching the sword drawn from his waist aim for his chest.

‘Metabolic type.’

Guyun closed his eyes.

‘What made the death penalty so tyrannical?’

Can’t fight back. No, I don’t fight back.

After pledging himself to change, he never swore at anyone under him. Even when he was punishing the wicked, he tried to reform them as much as possible.

The nature that was ingrained with such habits took control of his body.

‘Please come to your senses!’

Hahaha!

At that moment, there was a tremendous resonance and a fierce wind swept in all directions.

Guyun opened his eyes.

There was surprise on his face.

“No matter what your position in the shrine is.”

The calm voice was the same as before.

Lu Guang’s sword did not reach Gu Yun’s chest. It stopped exactly one inch in front.

And Yeon Ho-jeong was holding the sword with his bare hands.

Even though he held the sword of the Supreme Master with his bare hands, there was not a single drop of blood on his hand.

“Anyone who tried to murder an alumni for no reason can never be forgiven.”

Crackle!

There was surprise on everyone’s faces.

In particular, a look of astonishment rather than surprise appeared vividly on Yeogwang’s face.

The sword was bent.

I didn’t break it, I just bent it with force. It was a sword filled with the power of a transcendent expert with the strength of a long-time swordsman.

Yeon Ho-jeong glared at Yeo-gwang.

Yeo Gwang was shocked.

“I didn’t want to step forward because it was Jongnam’s matter, but as the head of the Murim Alliance, it’s not something I can just ignore. “You tried to kill the person in charge of Jongnam’s troops.”

“…what?”

“Whether you’re crazy or not, I’ve gone too far out of line considering your situation.”

bang!

“Oops!”

Yeo Gwang staggered back.

The sword he was holding broke apart and fell to the ground. Yeo Gwang, who put his energy into that sword, also suffered significant internal injuries.

Yeon Ho-jeong flicked his index finger.

Bub bub bub!

Yeo Gwang fell down.

His eyes were blinking, as if he was conscious. However, he was in a situation where he could not move or speak due to the demonic and evil blood.

Yeon Ho-jeong said to Guyun.

“The battle is just around the corner. “We can’t drag you away, so please handle it from here.”

Gu Yun said glumly.

“Thank you for putting the situation in my hands.”

“I don’t know if I should be audited.”

Guyun looked at Hongjeok.

Hongjeok nodded heavily, then picked up Yeogwang and carried him inside.

Yeon Ho-jeong said.

“You decide for yourself whether to confine them or let them fight. Just keep this one thing in mind. “If he is sent to war, he will be summarily executed in accordance with the laws of war if he undermines the morale of our troops with words or actions that are detrimental to the battle.”

Gu Yun sighed.

“I understand.”

Paeyul said in an uneasy tone.

“If possible, keep him locked up. “If we release him for no reason, it will cause extreme damage to the prosecutors of Jongnam.”

Guyun had no answer.

Paeyul whispered to Yeon Hojeong.

“But why did you keep me alive? “It would have been okay if I blew it up at this point.”

Yeon Ho-jeong ignored the loss rate.

“Now let’s talk about work. Forget about minor incidents.”

“Let’s do that.”

It was an incident where an elder of a sect tried to kill another elder. It was never trivial.

However, if we lose this war, Jongnam will disappear. Considering the problems of Jongnam as a whole, it was definitely something that could be considered trivial.

“They will be drawing troops from volcanoes and open spaces. Elder Cheoljanggae said that he would also bring troops from friendly clans, so at least 500 or more of our allies will come.”

“It is something to be thankful to the Primordial Heavenly Father.”

“Not even the Prime Minister of the world can tell us how to place external troops in the right place.”

Yeon Ho-jeong’s expression suddenly became serious.

“What happened to the young Taoists and students who did not learn martial arts?”

“Everyone has been sent down. “If you are not one of Jongnam’s people, you will not know this path, so you can rest assured.”

“I heard that Jongnam’s prosecutors are as combative as Jeomchang and Gonggong.”

“It’s true.”

“I don’t know how or when the enemies will attack, but it won’t be before midnight at least. If we’re lucky, they’ll attack after dawn like I said, but I think it’s highly unlikely.”

Yeon Ho-jeong’s eyes lit up.

“Tell me all the places that are vulnerable to surprise attacks. “I think we need to work together and come up with the bare minimum tactics.”

Time passed like that.

Before we knew it, it was time for a red sunset to cover the world. A thick half moon appeared vaguely in the sky.

Even then, the momentum of Myeonggeuk and Hyeolrangdan was not felt. Originally, it would have started moving around now and arrived before midnight to attack Jongnam.

Jongnam was as wide as it was and had as many experts as there were. However, if we were to name experts with sufficient combat experience, less than three-tenth of them would do so.

It could not be said that it was Jongnam’s problem. Most martial sects would be like that, and it wasn’t a big problem.

The martial arts skills of Gu-Fail-I-Bang are strong even without experiencing actual combat. Furthermore, once you reach a certain level, the difference between you and someone who has actually experienced combat decreases drastically.

Even as I watch the blade pass before my eyes, my heart does not waver. Basically, it is based on the martial arts of Taoism and Buddhism, so it has excellent harmony between mind and body.

However, even if one had learned such martial arts, large-scale battles were a different matter. The success or failure of this fight will depend on the performance of the masters who have not experienced actual combat but have sufficiently practiced martial arts.

Time passes again.

Eventually, night came.

As the world became dark, the tension among the prosecutors began to increase frighteningly. This was because you never knew when and where the enemy would attack.

At that time, a voice full of tension burst out of the prose.

“Who are you?”

Hwang Seok-tae raised his spear and hand.

“It’s called Hwang Seok-tae. This is Yeon Ho-jeong’s adjutant, or rather, Yeon Ho-jeong’s group. Say that inside.”

“Put down your spear and kneel down!”

It was a very aggressive response.

But Hwang Seok-tae obediently did as they told him.

After all, it was a wartime situation. It was rather surprising that he did not attack even though he was an unknown warrior.

After a while.

“Hwang Danju.”

Yeon Ho-jeong himself came out in prose.

Hwang Seok-tae said to the prosecutor who pointed the sword at his neck.

“Now, will you please put away your sword?”

The swordsman with his sword bowed briefly.

“Forgive my rudeness.”

Hwang Seok-tae chuckled.

‘It’s okay.’

It was a restrained statement and action. I think the tension was a bit too much, but at least I didn’t feel like I was going to be blindly stabbed to death.

Yeon Ho-jeong said to Hwang Seok-tae, who picked up the red dragon spear and stood up.

“What about volcanoes?”

“It will come soon. “I started first.”

“good. “You worked hard.”

“That’s right. “I have never kneeled in front of anyone.”

Hwang Seok-tae shook the dirt off his knees.

Yeon Ho-jeong chuckled.

“You’re going to see this and that a lot just because you’re with me, right?”

“I’ll buy you a drink later.”

“Of course. “If we get through this battle safely.”

“Not in broad daylight.”

“That’s a bit of a shame. Let’s go first. “I need your insight.”

Around the middle of the hash (亥時).

“It’s a volcano!”

Someone among the swordsmen guarding the mountain gate shouted.

“The swordsmen of the volcano have arrived as reinforcements!”

“Wow!”

The loud voice was transmitted throughout Jongnam Mountain.

The confluence of volcanoes ignited a fire in the hearts of Jongnam prosecutors, who were full of tension. It seemed as if a huge fire was burning throughout the mountain. It was such a great change that the full morale (士氣) suddenly changed to military spirit (military spirit).

Gu Yun bowed his head towards the swordsman.

“Guyun of Jongnam greets the great man of Hwasan.”

Hwageomja waved his hand.

“That’s an excessive greeting. “I’m just sorry I couldn’t come sooner.”

“How can you say that? Just the fact that you came like this…”

Guyun was momentarily overcome with tears and was unable to continue speaking.

Behind Hwageomja were lined up three related elders of Hwasan and nearly two hundred troops.

The solemn prayers of each one were excellent. It was clear that all of them were top experts and plum sword swordsmen, even in volcanoes.

Among them were some with spears, and their strength was no less than that of the plum sword swordsmen.

Guyun and the elders were thrilled. Even if Hwasan had been invaded, it was doubtful whether Jongnam would have dispatched that many troops.

It was then.

“Elder!”

Gu Yun’s eyes widened.

“No, you guys?!”

Prosecutors Hyeok-eun and Jong-nam rushed to Guyun and knelt down.

“Fortunately, the! “We’re not late!”

“Where have you been and are you here now?!”

I was so distracted that I couldn’t investigate where the prosecutors who were with Yeogwang had gone.

It was time for Hyuk-eun to open his mouth.

“At first, I thought the volcano was an enemy target.”

Hwageomja said with a smile.

“When the younger students found out, they ran straight to the volcano. “Please help us.”

“…!”

“Unfortunately, the target has changed to Jongnam, but how can we not make efforts when we see them? “You have really good disciples.”

Gu-yoon squeezed Hyeok-eun’s shoulder.

“Good job. And thank you. “You have shown Jongnam’s spirit!”

Hyeok-eun lowered his head.

“The crime of moving without permission will be punished after this battle is over.”

“What sin do you have? After today, if any of our neighbors are in trouble again, we must take action no matter who stops us. “I have taught you so.”

“I’ll keep that in mind.”

“Good job. “Welcome back.”

The appearance of reinforcements and affiliated prosecutors was truly welcome.

But at the same time, the war clouds became more intense. The arrival of reinforcements meant that the enemy’s invasion time could be brought forward accordingly.

Tensions are rising even more.

And just after midnight.

“…You’re here.”

Yeon Ho-jeong stood up holding the Tongcheonbu.

In the distance, Hwageomja also stood up with his eyes shining.

“It looks like the enemy is coming.”

Guyun shouted.

“Everyone ready for battle!”

Cha-cha-cha-chachang!

Hundreds of swords were pulled out, emitting brilliant sword light.
