Return of Mount Hua Sect - Chapter 276
Shaolin was surrounded by silence.
‘That…’
‘The Peng Clan…’
The crowd, which was about to cheer, was stunned by what they saw.
It comes as no surprise that Mount Hua’s disciple, Baek Chun, defeated Peng Family’s Peng Dowan.
Haven’t the disciples of Mount Hua already demonstrated their abilities? The vast majority of those gathered here had already predicted a resounding victory for Mount Hua.
But no one could say anything because what was happening on stage was so shocking.
It wouldn’t feel this way if Baek Chun had simply blown Peng Dowan away. But instead of blowing up Peng Dowan, Baek Chun beat him like a dog.
One thought naturally entered the minds of those who witnessed the scene.
‘Is Mount Hua really that powerful?’
‘Peng Dowan of the Peng Family was beaten arbitrarily while unable to use his hand properly?’
When Mount Hua’s disciples annihilated their opponents in a single blow, it felt like they were watching a lighthearted skit, and they could simply laugh and enjoy it, but the scene in front of their eyes now is different.
With his skills, Baek Chun completely defeated his opponent.
Without any apologies.
When I saw Peng Dowan fall to the ground, foam on his mouth and convulsing, reality hit me hard.
‘Isn’t Mount Hua going to win?’
“E Ei……… there’s still the Ten Great Sect and the Great Five Family.”
“Isn’t that guy over there from the Great Five Family?”
“Um, that’s true.”
People are starting to feel it now.
The fact that Mount Hua brought a gust of wind may not end in a simple gust.
“The reaction is not as expected.”
Baek Chun approached Chung Myung with a shrug.
“I think I’ve shown something for you.”
“Keuh!”
Chung Myung exclaimed loudly in response to that calm remark.
“Our Dongryong has grown up a lot. Now he knows how to put on airs.”
The brows of Baek Chun twitched slightly.
“Arrogance usually blooms well.”
“Is that something to brag about?”
“…not bragging.”
Baek Chun cooled his slightly heated face with a low cough.
“Anyway, it’s quieter than I thought? Did I make a mistake? ”
“No mistake.”
Chung Myung looked around, and surprised onlookers’ gazes were drawn to Mount Hua’s disciples.
When he saw the reaction, the corners of Chung Myung’s mouth rolled up.
‘Right, it’s not going to end with just laughing and having a good time.’
They must see it with their own two eyes.
How powerful Mount Hua is, and how talented Mount Hua’s disciples are.
Everything they’ve seen will be broadcast to the rest of the world through their mouths.
‘Keu, I can’t believe such a day has come.’
Chung Myung wiped his eyes with his sleeve. The past years have passed before my eyes.
‘I’m going to have nosebleed seats!’
His tears seem to flow like the Yangtze River when he recalls the first time he returned to Mount Hua.
Didn’t he bring all these people who weren’t as good as the neighborhood Black Taoists here by soothing, stroking, and encouraging (?) them?
As a result, no matter where they are placed, the disciples of Mount Hua can now be described as dignified martial artists.
Chung Myung raised his head and gazed up at the sky.
‘Sahyung! Cheon Mun Sahyung! Are you watching? I’ve accomplished so much!’
‘Please compliment me!’
– You punk, there’s still a long way to go!
‘This yangban, no?’
Chung Myung looked up at the sky.
‘You have to praise someone who did a good job!’
‘And ignore my kids? My kids are stronger than the old ones…. .’
“Huh?”
Chung Myung cocked his chin.
Stronger?
‘Really?’
Have the Mount Huas of today surpassed those of the past?
Certainly not.
Although the current Mount Hua is gaining momentum, they are still far behind considering Mount Hua’s heyday, known as the Plum Blossom Sect.
But what if they only compare second-class disciples from the past to second-class disciples from today?
‘How could they not win?’
Chung Myung cocked his chin.
Even if he thinks about it this way and that, he doesn’t think they’ll lose.
It is clear that Mount Hua in the past fought for first place in the world; with the exception of Chung Myung, they are certainly among the top five in the world, and the level of the second-class disciples was naturally the highest in Kangho.
In comparison to now……
Wudang, you are correct!
The current Wudang position in Kangho is comparable to Mount Hua’s position in the past.
Of course, he still believes that Mount Hua’s second-class disciples are stronger than Wudang’s current second-class disciples, but whatever!
‘Do our kids, by the way, beat up the shaman’s disciples?’
Isn’t it absolutely stunning?
Chung Myung, who had compared the previous generation’s second-class disciples to the current generation’s second-class disciples, opened his mouth slightly.
‘Wow, they’re on top.’
When you think about it, it’s not so strange.
They struggled like dogs, drank Jasodan, and trained with only Chung Myung to practice and improve their skills.
It would be strange if they weren’t powerful.
Chung Myung cast a glance at Baek Chun.
‘Isn’t this guy much stronger than Sect Leader when he was on the same age?’ (I still suspect Cheon Mun Sahyung as Jangmun Sahyung (Jangmun = Sect Leader). So please keep that in mind.)
Whether it was worth the effort, the strongest Mount Hua Sect in history was being formed, surpassing the previous Mount Hua.
Chung Myung smiled happily, proud of his accomplishments.
But when Chung Myung smiled, Baek Chun frowned nervously.
“…How come you’re staring at me like that?” It makes me nervous.”
“No way, no how. You’re doing fantastic.”
“…if I’ve done something wrong, just tell me.”
“It’s because you’re doing great.”
“It’s strange that you’d say such a thing!”
Chung Myung, who was being dragged away from his emotions, blinked.
“No, how do they respond when they are complimented?”
“It’s because you’re doing things you don’t usually do!”
“Whatever!”
When Chung Myung and Baek Chun began arguing, the disciples rushed in and separated the two.
On the other hand, the Sect Leader of the Ten Great Sect, who was watching the scene from a distance, sighed quietly.
‘What in the world is going on?’
‘The Peng Family’s sword was perfect, but could it be broken with force?’
If the crowd was focused on the outcome, the Sect Leaders were focused on the process.
Peng Family of Hebei
A prestigious family is known throughout the world for its heavy swordsmanship.
Their ferocious swing has always drawn attention, but the disciple of Mount Hua, known for wielding a sharp sword, crushed Hebei Peng’s sword with sheer force.
Jumping into the air and receiving a sword that has been swung and deflected is something that can only be seen with a skill difference of at least twice.
‘What kind of training did he go through to achieve that?’
‘Baek Chun, Baek Chun.’
What the disciples of Mount Hua had shown thus far was incredible, but Baek Chun’s performance was on a different level, and it was the moment when the names Baek Chun and Chung Myung became permanently imprinted in the minds of many Sect Leaders.
‘Chung Myung, the Divine Dragon of Mount Hua, and the Righteous Sword Baek Chun.’
In one section, two resources are difficult to find.
Their expressions became even more solemn as they confirmed Mount Hua Sect’s ability: no matter how hard they thought about it, finding someone within their sect who could show a figure like Baek Chun was difficult.
In other words, if it is restricted to only second and third-class disciples, Mount Hua is now on par with the world’s most prestigious sect.
Their gazes are drawn to Hyun Jong, who is seated in the back.
“Humm.”
It’s strange.
It didn’t bother them in the least that Mount Hua’s Hyun Jong was sitting in the back.
But things have changed now that it has become like this.
‘It feels like someone is watching me from behind.’
They began to feel uneasy because they couldn’t see Hyun Jong’s expression from behind them.
“Kekeke. Sect Leader, congratulations. Mount Hua’s future will be bright if that child becomes the Sect Leader for future generations.”
Neungsam 능삼(能三) Jao Gae (자오개(慈烏丐)). The Elders of Beggar’s Union who took up the seat as a substitute for the Beggar Union revealed his intention and laughed.
“It was nothing.”
“No, no. It seems that Mount Hua Sect misfortune has come to an end since we see such many talented people in Mount Hua when it was hard to come by in another sect.”
“I’m honored. It’s only that……”
With a big smile, Hyun Jong says.
“I’m confident that they won’t be ashamed wherever they are in the world.”
“Hooh.”
Hyun Jong’s face has been slightly distorted.
‘This is also not easy.’
When he tried to lie casually as a Taoist, his stomach tightened.
What?
Is he embarrassed?
‘To be honest, I’m a little embarrassed.’
Not in terms of talent, but of personality.
Hyun Jong’s brow furrows.
‘Now that they are second to none in terms of skills, all they need is a Taoist’s heart……
He sighs when he sees Baek Chun and Chung Myung screaming unconcerned about whether or not anyone is watching.
‘I only asked that he grow up healthy.’
Didn’t they have a very healthy childhood?
And just because he says they can ruin everything except their health doesn’t mean they can.
“Congratulations, Sect Leader.”
Tang Gunak spoke softly, but his gaze…
‘I know how Sect Leader feels.’
contained such significance
Hyun Jong’s eyes began to sting for no apparent reason.
Jao Gae laughed.
“With this momentum, it won’t take long for Mount Hua to regain its former glory.”
“It’s still a long way off.”
“What do you mean a long way? Seeing those kids, I don’t think it’ll be long. Hahahaha. I’m worried that the Ten Great Sect will be called ‘Ten Sect.”
The Sect Leaders of Ten Great Sect who had their ears open were slightly stiff.
Because it was such a sensitive subject, those who were used to hiding their emotions were visibly agitated.
“Yikes, yikes, this old man is acting silly again. Leader told me to keep my mouth shut and stay on my seat. Kekeke.”
Jao Gae smiles and steps back a little.
‘Oh, that old raccoon…’
There’s no way someone like Jao Gae would say anything by accident, so this is clearly a mockery of the Ten Great Sect people here.
“Keuhuhum.”
“Keuhum!”
Coughing fits erupted here and there.
They are so uneasy because everyone knows that that isn’t just nonsense.
Of course, it’s too much for now; after all, what can a child who is only a second-class disciple do?
But…….
What if those children grow up to be the leaders of Mount Hua?
‘That is something that must not be overlooked.’
Heo Dojin’s eyes drooped.
What he most desires is to catch up to Shaolin in his generation.
So what is the last thing he wants to deal with?
‘Mount Hua is a threat to Wudang.’
Mount Hua and Wudang once competed for the world’s first sword and the world’s first sect.
Of course, the world considers Wudang to be a higher-ranking sect than Mount Hua, but who can appreciate a sect that keeps sticks on its feet and plants thorns even when pushed away?
‘It appears that special measures are required.’
The Sect Leaders of the Ten Great Sect, including Heo Dojin, cast heavy gazes.
Munch, Munch, Munch, Munch, Munch, Munch.
“…….”
Munch, Munch, Munch, Munch, Munch, Munch, Munch!
“…….”
Blood veins protruded from Baek Chun’s brow.
“Chung Myung-ah.”
“Huh?”
“……You seem to be eating something nonstop since you came here.”
“Do you want some?”
Chung Myung handed Baek Chun the snack he was holding.
“That’s not what I meant!”
Chung Myung grins.
“You’re supposed to eat something when you see things like this. And you have to eat well to fight. And get stronger.”
Why does he need to be so strong?
In the second match, he kicked his opponent in the face, causing him to be unable to eat porridge.
“Anyway, a lot of people are watching. You should at least show a serious side.”
“Now?”
“…Actually, it feels a little late, but there is a saying that it is the earliest when you think it is too late, right?”
“Tsk tsk, tsk. You’re so relaxed, Sasuk.”
Chung Myung smirked and clicked his tongue and motioned toward the stage.
“And, by the way, Sasuk. I don’t believe we’ll be in a position where you can unwind. The real thing will most likely be released today.”
“What?”
It was that exact moment.
Kwaang!
On the stage, there was a loud explosion.
The Mount Hua disciples’ heads turned to one side.
The man in the white robe holding a massive sword looks arrogantly at his opponent.
On the other side, a man with a broken sword and a perplexed expression were staring at him.
“Oh! It’s Namgung’s Broken Mountain Sword! ”
“Yes! Namgoong Dohui was there! Let’s see how Namgung Family is! ”
The white-robed man looked around, noticing Baek Chun and Chung Myung.
“Broken Mountain Sword…….”
Baek Chun moaned quietly.
Cutting off the opponent’s sword is as difficult and cruel as it can be because it clearly demonstrates the difference in skill levels.
Furthermore, Namgung Dohui is now staring at Mount Hua’s disciples as if he has lost interest in his opponent.
“Interesting, that one.”
Chung Myung laughed.
“See, I said the real ones will come out from today, right?”
“…but you didn’t say it was now.”
Chung Myung sighs and shrugs his shoulders.
“Shaolin must have an idea, they must have pushed those who could be the main characters to the back. That’s how to make the match dramatic.”
Baek Chun smirked.
If he thinks about it backward, Mount Hua was just a group of people who arrived early and were moderately expected, in Shaolin’s opinion.
“Now, look over there.”
“Yes?”
“Familiar face, huh?”
In an instant, Baek Chun’s face hardened.
“Jin Geum Ryong of Southern Edge Sect!”
The figure of Jin Geum Ryong ascending the stage in response to Gong Cho’s summons caught Baek Chun’s attention.
‘Hyung-nim…’
Baek Chun unknowingly bit his lower lip.
