Return of Mount Hua Sect - Chapter 254
Chung Myung trudged into the gate, and Baek Chun looked up, sad.
‘He isn’t dead.’
Little by little, die!
Yoo Iseol, Jo Gol, and Yoon Jong all look at the gate with excitement.
“People should be human.”
“Now he breaking through Mount Hua! That one, that one!”
“Where’s the madman who robs his own house!”
“There was no response. A complete disaster.”
Their stomach is grumbling.
‘I can’t say this, I can’t say it.’
If they rushed to the Sect Leader for this, the situation appeared to be worsening, and if they held on any longer, their stomach would twist.
They have no choice but to suffer as if they are deaf and blind.
In the midst of this, the individual in question walks in with the appearance of a full-fledged puppy, so how can they not be upset?
“Chung Myung-ah!”
Unaware of the situation, other Disciples discovered Chung Myung and rushed to his aid.
“We’ve got a problem! Yesterday, a thief broke into Mount Hua! The pot has been robbed!”
“Wh.at? Did.That.Hap.Pen?”
Chung Myung blinked open his eyes.
“Man, don’t act! It’s so awkward that I’m embarrassed!”
Unfortunately, the other disciples didn’t seem to notice the awkwardness.
“He was so powerful! Yoon jong Sahyun was knocked out in one shot.”
“Tsk, tsk, tsk It’s because he was lazy in training.”
‘That filthy punk…’
Yoon Jong’s face flushed.
To be human, one must have a conscience. But where in the hell did that d*mn punk sell his soul?
“The elders are still looking for it… but it’s probably hard to catch them.” (I will refer to it with them as they are not supposed to know whether it is he or she.)
“It’s impossible to avoid. If I had been present, I would have apprehended him.”
“I’m sure you caught him.”
“Right, of course, you got him, you damn punk.”
Chung Myung shrugged and gently shook his shoulders.
“Well, there’s nothing we can do about what we’ve already lost.”
It was back then.
“Myung-ah Chung! The Sect Leader has requested that you see him as soon as you return.”
“Okay.”
Chung Myung smiled as he trudged to the Sect Leader’s house. Baek Chun’s group trailed close behind, rolling their eyes.
“Where is your conscience?”
“What?”
Chung Myung responded to Yoon Jong’s words with a blank stare.
‘Oh, that expression!’
‘If I could just put a piece of bamboo in it, I would have no wish. You’re a caveman. ‘I’ll murder you and go to hell!’
“Keuuh.”
Yoon Jong sighed and groaned.
Next to him, Baek Chun gnashed his teeth and threatened.
“You will get an earful from Sect Leader.”
“I don’t know what you’re talking about since a while ago. Why can’t you be kind to someone who has been recuperating cause of internal injuries?”
“Internal injury? Internaal injuuuryy?”
You bastard, is that the color of a guy with internal injuries? Your face is too shiny and smooth; if you squeeze it, oil will come out!
“Anyway, it has nothing to do with me, so don’t bother me any longer. If you continue to harass me in this manner, I will contact the elders. People are still bothered by Sahyung and Sasuk.”
“…….”
Who bullies whom?
Who? Who?
“Ugh, ughhh!”
“Sasuk!”
“Get a hold of yourself!”
Jo Gol and Yoon Jong rushed in and stopped Baek Chun when he couldn’t control his rage and grabbed his neck.
Chung Myung just laughed and went to Sect Leader’s house.
“……Where is Mount Hua going?”
Baek Chun murmured as he looked back at the person who was leaving.
* * *
“Right! Do you feel better now?”
“Yes!”
“Oh, that’s great news. I was concerned because I had received bad news the night before. I was going to ask where you were in case they were looking for you, but seeing you so well puts my mind at ease.”
“Hehe. It’s a robber. If they come after me, I’ll catch them in a single shot.”
“Yes, that’s right.”
Hyun Jong looked at Chung Myung with trusting eyes.
“But… I’m embarrassed by myself. I can’t believe the iron pot you worked so hard to obtain has been stolen. It’s all due to our ignorance.”
“Ei. What are you talking about? I’m glad no one got hurt. It is not a major issue. I’ll get it again. How can mere things be more important than people?”
“Oh.”
“As expected of Chung Myung.”
“He is unquestionably a Taoist. He is, in fact, a Taoist.”
“Hehe. Don’t bring it up. It’s only natural, given that I was a Mount Hua disciple.”
“That’s correct, that’s correct. There you have it, Chung Myung.”
Hyun Young smiled as he looked at Chung Myung.
However, some people were distressed by sight.
Trembled.
Yoon Jong quickly grabbed Baek Chun’s thigh when he trembled.
‘Sasuk. I understand how you feel, but I’m not here.’
“Ugh.”
Baek Chun breathes heavily.
‘I’d prefer not to come!’ What does he want to see that he has travelled all the way here to see?’
“However, Sect Leader. It is not something to consider lightly.”
“Hm?”
With a stiff face, Hyun Sang said.
“First of all, someone may have come to know that there is an iron pot made of Everlasting Metal in Mount Hua.”
“Ugh.”
Hyun Young smirked.
“Does Sahyung mean that Mount Hua’s information is leaking out?”
“That wasn’t exactly what I meant. Perhaps he came here to spy on Mount Hua and discovered the pot. But that doesn’t change the fact that someone ascended the treacherous Mount Hua to spy on us.”
“Um.”
Hyun Young agreed with a nod.
“That means that even outsiders are beginning to be wary of us.”
“Sure enough, that’s true.”
“In fact, the children have been performing admirably. Mount Hua formed a partnership with the Sichuan Tang Family and began trading with the Namman Yasugung Clan. Those who are quick to notice will notice that Mount Hua is gradually changing.”
“Since Southern Edge Sect’s incident is still being talked about…….”
“That’s right.”
Hyun Jong gave a firm nod.
It’s good for Mount Hua to grow, but if their position in the Murim grows stronger, others will have no choice but to keep them in check.
“First of all, even if the children are a little uncomfortable, we’ll have to prepare them from now on.”
“That’s a good thought. Sect Head.”
Chung Myung delighted in listening to the Elders’ conversation.
‘What exactly are you saying?’
‘You haven’t reached that level yet, guys.’
‘Why are you already putting strength in your shoulders?’
‘Aigoo, these adorable things.’
He considered telling them the truth for a moment but decided against it because what they do is adorable.
It’s not a bad idea to be cautious for the time being. Even if not now, Mount Hua will soon be a target for other sects.
“That’s why this is all the more important.”
Hyun Sang turned his head and looked at Chung Myung.
“Chung Myung-ah. Did you say that your body is all healed?”
“Yes.”
“Then can you really cut Hancheol?”
“Yes, of course.”
“Um.”
Hyun Sang’s face showed a sense of pride that could not be hidden.
‘I knew that Chung Myung was strong.’
In the first place, Mount Hua’s Elders had long given up on understanding Chung Myung’s talent.
Chung Myung unilaterally defeated Jin Geum Ryong, the best rising star in Southern Edge Sect, half a year after entering Mount Hua.
And a year after he entered the sect, he was told by Un Gum, the head of the White Plum Dormitory.
‘I can’t teach him. If we leave him alone, he will be strong on his own. Let him be, he will teach himself.’
He’s the one who came up with the word.
More than two years later, he fought with Wudang’s elder, and then he had a spar with Tang Ga-Ju, and even defeated Tang Wei, the Elder of the Tang Family.
Is there anyone among the Elders of Mount Hua confident that they can win a fight against Tang Wei?
In other words, that means that the best master of Mount Hua now is Chung Myung, no matter what anyone says.
“Your martial art is so terrifying.”
“It’s thanks to the teachings of Mount Hua.”
“Haha. You are humble, too.”
Chung Myung grinned.
‘I didn’t lie, I really didn’t!’
Chung Myung is strong because he learned it from Mount Hua. Of course not the current Mount Hua.
Chung Myung’s speech, which seemed to gently scratch their itch whenever he answered, kept the smile on the faces of the Elders.
“Sect Leader, shouldn’t we check it out now?”
“I guess so.”
Hyun Jong hesitated a little.
This remark burned his heart because he couldn’t open it until now.
How many days has he shed tears in front of that safe every time Mount Hua fell into the abyss?
However, he never dreamed of inviting a master who could cut the safe. If the master becomes greedy about the stuff inside, then Mount Hua doesn’t have the power to stop them.
Rice cake is in the picture.
Mount Hua’s Safe was the treasure that can only be seen in dreams.
However, he was more scared than happy when he could finally open the safe. It’s because he is afraid there isn’t anything they want in it.
But Hyun Sang did not take Hyun Jong’s feelings into account.
“Right. Then can you do it now?”
“Of course.”
“Yes, let’s do that. Sect Leader!”
“Um! I see!”
It’s a sign.
Hyun Jong sprang up from his seat. He went to one side of the room and pulled the scroll hanging from the wall, then he pushed the wall slightly.
Keururuk.
With a friction sound, the part that Hyun Jong touches is pushed inside.
“I-Is it fine to show us all that?”
“The Safe, whatever is in it, we will bring it all. Then what is the significance of a place called Safe? And I don’t want to make any more secrets from you all.”
“Sect Leader…….”
Hyun Jong pulled the handle of the machine without delay.
Then, with a creaking sound, the floor was pushed aside, revealing an entrance large enough for a person to fit in.
“Come on, let’s go.”
“Yes.”
The people in the room all got up in unison.
But only Baek Chun’s group hesitated to follow suit.
“Come here.”
“Sect Leader. We…….”
“Didn’t I say it? I don’t want to make secrets from anyone in Mount Hua anymore. Let’s go.”
Baek Chun, who guessed Sect Leader’s thought, nodded quietly after much consideration.
“Understood, Sect Leader.”
As they went down through the entrance, there was a fairly spacious hallway, unlike the entrance.
‘That’s the one I saw last time.’
Chung Myung glances upward. It hurts to see a hole as big as a fist.
“It’s very dark.”
“……There were originally several Luminous Pearl stuck in this hallway.”
“Where’d they go?”
“Sometimes you need money, don’t you?”
“…….”
Hyun Young became a mute who had eaten honey. (Someone who does not say anything.)
‘Ah… … . That’s the money from selling the Luminous Pearl here. Had I known that I would have saved a little more?’
“There it is.”
After walking for a while, a large iron door appeared before them.
“This place?”
“Yes, this is the safe of the Sect Leader of Mount Hua, that has been handed down from generation to generation.”
“Oh…….”
Hyun Young looked at the door as if he was moved. The door with the messy lines drawn on it gives a strange feeling.
“This door, how do you open it?”
“Well, I think, maybe you can open it by mastering the special martial arts that are only passed on to the Sect Leader of Mount Hua.”
“……it must have been put into practice then.”
“I don’t know. It could be in there.”
As soon as the word ends, everyone’s eyes are on Chung Myung.
They can’t open that door anyway. It’s all in the hands of Chung Myung now.
“It’s embarrassing if you look at me like that.”
Chung Myung, who was rambling with inappropriate words unlike him, slowly drew his sword.
“Huuh.”
Chung Myung took a deep breath, raised his sword and pointed at the door.
‘Should I act like I’m having a hard time?’
If he wants to, he can cut it off at once, but if he does, they will expect too much again, right? Then he must cut it several times while pretending to be moderately tough.
‘Hahat!’ (Could be an SFX)
“Stand back.”
“All right!”
“Please!”
As the Elders rushed back, Chung Myung aimed at the door with subdued eyes.
‘Those lines might be useful later, so let’s leave them. I’ll cut around it.’
Chung Myung smiled and performed Geomgang.
“Oh!”
“It’s Geomgang!”
“Good job! Good job!”
Without delay, Chung Myung hurled a sword covered with Sword Energy toward the door.
First, cut it vertically!
Kkagang!
“Huh?”
Kkagang?
It’s not Seoguk, but Kkagang?
Chung Myung opened his eyes wide and looked forward. His sword was hung tight to the door.
“Huh?”
Why isn’t it cut?
As he pulled out his sword with a grunt, he approached closer and looked into the cracks. Soon his pupils shook violently.
“……No! This man! Why did you make the door so thick?”
“What?”
“N-No. Nothing……. it’s fine.”
Chung Myung’s face was distorted.
‘The walls and the bottom are so thin but the doors are so thick? You shallow people!’
In fact, the front of the safe had to be thick because of the mechanism, but now Chung Myung had no time to think about it. (The hallway leads to there is only one.)
‘If you dig the side, you can enter in an instant.’
‘If I had known this would happen, I would have come alone!’
There are a lot of eyes on the back.
“Is it hard?”
Hyun Jong asked with a dying face. Chung Myung couldn’t do anything but make a pained sound.
“Ugh……. No. I can do it!”
“Yes, Chung Myung-ah! Be strong!”
Eventually, he sighed deeply and grabbed the sword again. His eyes sparkled.
“Hah! Seriously!”
‘There’s nothing easy going on! What the!’
“Eurachaaa!”
Kaang!
“Euaaaaaa!”
Kaaaang!
“Oh, it’s so frustrating.”
Kang! Kang! Kang! Kang! Kaaang! Kaaaaang!
Chung Myung began swinging the sword at random. If he can’t cut it at once, he can cut it dozens and hundreds of times. Of course, it can’t be easy to wield a sword hundreds of times while using Geomgang.
“Nothing’s helping! d*mn it, lads!
‘Let’s see the man that made this. I’ll catch you! I will! What? I can’t get into your realm? I’ll get you out of hell!’
Fire blazed in his eyes and mouth and he swung the sword at random.
Just a little bit of that.
“Gasp…….”
Thud.
Kkkiiing!
As soon as Chung Myung fell to the side, the door was cut into squares and collapsed on the opposite side.
Bam!
“Ohhhhh!”
“It’s open!”
“Chung Myung, you did a great job! You’ve worked so hard!”
Drenched in sweat, Chung Myung muttered as looking at the dark cave ceiling. His gasps echoed in the hallway.
“Guh… this is how you get your revenge.”
‘Cheon Mun Sahyung, you bastard.’
– Kekeke.
‘Oh, don’t laugh!’
‘Don’t!’
