Return of Mount Hua Sect - Chapter 349
“Keuh…….”
Hyun Bob, who was in excruciating pain throughout his body, eventually burst into a foaming mouth and passed out.
“Tsk.”
Chung Myung, who had handled Hyun Bob with care, turned to face the remaining Hyun Dang.
Flinch.
Hyun Dang became quiet and took a step back.
“You are so cruel.”
“Cruel?”
“Yes!”
Hyun Dang’s gaze darted around, unable to settle in a direction. His voice was ferocious even in the midst of it.
“Even if we did something excessive, weren’t you Taoist? How could you become a Taoist and do such a thing? Aren’t you ashamed to face Mount Hua’s ancestors?”
Chung Myung grinned.
When Hyun Dang saw the reaction, he raised his voice even more.
“This is a great sin of Gisamyeoljo. Mount Hua…….” (기사멸조(欺師滅祖)/ Deceive Teacher and destroy Ancestor. You are probably aware of how important master-disciple relationship and ancestor-descendant relationship.)
“Old man, do you know Mount Hua well?”
“…what?”
“You don’t seem to know. Mount Hua doesn’t have top or bottom originally.”
“………This guy, until the end!”
“You should be glad you met me.”
The strange word distorted Hyun Dang’s face.
Chung Myung’s words, on the other hand, were completely genuine.
‘If you’re caught by Cheon Mun Sahyung, you can’t even stand on two legs right now.’
Great Righteous Sword Cheon Mun.
He made a name for himself as one of the most virtuous and wonderful people in the world, but how could he become someone who led a huge sect like Mount Hua of his time?
“You’ve been talking about our ancestors from a while ago, but if the ancestors were still alive, old man-nim’s limb would have been cut off and you will be thrown into the Penance Cave.” (참회동/ I guess it is some kind of cave used to punish someone and for them to reflect on themselves.)
“…….”
“Aren’t you ashamed to see your ancestors?”
There’s no way he won’t be ashamed.
Chung Myung thinks he can hear people looking down from up there foaming at the mouth.
“Well, yes, everything’s fine. That’s possible. People can be greedy, they can be stubborn. That’s what people are like. But…….”
Chung Myung’s face grew redder and redder.
“I’ll put up with everything else. But how dare you ignore our Sect Leader?”
What kind of person is Hyun Jong?
He has been protecting Mount Hua, who they abandoned, by supporting the sect with all his body. Mount Hua had no foundation stone left without Hyun Jong when Chung Myung returned.
But they’re persecuting Hyun Jong.
That was unforgivable.
“Come here. You have to be beaten to death and hit one more time.”
Hyun Dang bit his lips.
His word won’t work.
If so, they have to get out of this situation somehow.
‘No matter how big of a talent he is…………’
Sreureuk.
Hyun Dang slowly drew his sword.
At the same time, sharp energy begins to flow from his body. As if someone who was called the “Mount Hua Best” in the past was not a lie.
“Whoa?”
Chung Myung looked at the figure with an interesting look.
Hyun Dang clenched his teeth and thought.
‘He has only repeated training and sword technique so far. He must have never really fought for his life.’
No matter how good the skill is, it is inevitable that the body will become stiff in the face of life-threatening battles.
If he aimed for that opportunity, Hyun Dang would stand a chance against him.
“You think of me too little. While you were training comfortably in this deep mountain, I have overcome countless difficulties in that wild world.”
“Oh, really?”
Chung Myung smirked and flicked the tip of the sword.
“Then prove it.”
“Uooooh!”
At that moment, Hyun Dang rushed toward Chung Myung at a formidable speed and stabbed.
The sword, which was aimed at the center, touched Chung Myung’s chest instantly.
‘You fool! You let your guard down…..’
But, at that moment.
Roll.
Chung Myung swung his body around to dodge the flying sword.
‘Huh?’
Just one step.
With just one move, Hyun Dang’s sword was completely ineffective.
Hyun Dang, who was unable to retrieve the sword due to too much momentum, hurriedly looked away with a perplexed face.
And he saw it.
Chung Myung, who is smiling triumphantly.
Chung Myung’s shoulders turned back. The waist was pulled tight and the foot stepped forward as if clutching the floor. The whole process was perfectly captured in Hyun Dang’s eyes.
And.
Chung Myung’s fist, which bounced off his body like a bow, flew exactly toward Hyun Dang’s face.
‘No… ….’
Kwang!
Chung Myung’s fist hit Hyun Dang’s chin.
The broken Hyun Dang’s teeth were scattered all over the place, and his head was bent as if his neck was about to break.
“Keuh…….”
Thud.
Hyun Dang’s body collapsed to the floor like a straw mat. Chung Myung smiled at the figure and lifted the scabbard covered with sword energy.
“A guy who can’t even hold a sword properly, what? Life-threatening? A battle to death?”
‘In front of who?’
‘Do you know Magyo?’
Chung Myung’s eyes shone bright blue.
“Oh! I’ll tell you what the real life-threatening is! Die! You punk! Just die!”
Pok! Poook! Poooook! Poooooook!
Chung Myung’s sword flew into Hyun Dang’s body as if dancing. Hyun Dang screamed and twisted, but Chung Myung’s sword didn’t know forgiveness.
“Aaaaarrghh! Aargh! Aaaaarrrggghhh!”
“Scream in a Taoist Sect! Why don’t you shut your mouth? Come on! I’ll tell you what manners are today!”
‘Excuse me.’
‘You’re beating a man in a Taoist Sect right now.’
There were so many things to pick on, but no one could point out Chung Myung, who was bashing Hyun Dang with madness in his eyes.
“… Sasuk.”
“Yes?”
“… Don’t we really have to stop him?”
“Uh…….”
‘I think we should really do that this time.’
It was the moment when Baek Chun swallowed his dry saliva and tried to take a step forward.
Next to him, someone poked out his head and looked inside the Green Plum Hall.
“Don’t come forward……. Elder?”
Baek Chun noticed that it was Hyun Young who poked his head out and stepped aside in surprise.
Hyun Young frowned with his tongue clicked as if he was displeased.
“Tsk tsk tsk tsk. What is this in a Taoist Sect?”
“…Shall I stop him?”
“Tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk.”
Hyun Young shook his head and turned away.
“That…… Elder?”
“Tsk tsk. This is why. Tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk.”
Then, as if nothing had happened, he walked away from Green Plum Hall. Is it Baek Chun’s imagination that the walking posture looks so refreshing?
“Sasuk?”
“…….”
Baek Chun, who was instructed to leave it be implicit, smiled after thinking for a while.
“I don’t even know anymore.”
“……Yes.”
He won’t kill.
He won’t.
Taktak.
Chung Myung, who had brushed his hands away, looked back at him with a face that still couldn’t get rid of his anger.
“Hng. I’ve become too nice. I will really do it if it were I in the past.”
‘I would have thought of cutting off his limbs first.’
‘Teaching the children makes me feel so soft. Tsk tsk.’
‘If Cheon Mun Sahyung had seen me, he would have shed some tears because I became a proper human being.’
‘No, should he be mad that I didn’t beat the old man enough?
‘Tsk.’
Chung Myung walked out and made a chin gesture behind him.
“Get rid of them.”
“……how?”
“How what? Just throw them away.”
“In front of the gate?”
“Throw them down the cliff if up to me.”
“……No, I’ll take care of them.”
“Tsk.”
Chung Myung pushed the disciples out and ran out of Green Plum Hall.
Baek Chun shook his head as he looked at Hyun Dang, who looked like rags.
“Even if barbarians attack, it won’t be this much.”
“…… they are still a novelty compared to Chung Myung.”
“I never thought I’d hear this at Taoist Sect.”
What’s even sadder is that the words were not so wrong.
“In any case, out of the gate…….”
It was then.
“No, the more I think about it, the angrier I get. You bastards, what? The rightful Mount Hua’s Sect Leader? The bastards who left the sect and ran away!”
“Stop it!”
“Hold him!”
Seeing Chung Myung rushing like a bolt out of the blue, the second and third-class disciples were frightened and blocked him. Each of them held onto Chung Myung’s legs.
“Chung Myung-ah, be patience!”
“You will kill him if you hit him more! Calm down, calm down!”
“No, he’s not good enough for anything!”
“Sweets! Someone go get it!”
Baek Chun, who grabbed Chung Myung’s waist, shouted in panic.
“Hey! Get those people out of here quickly! Think of it as saving someone and throw them out! Come on!”
“Yes, Sahyung!”
The rest of the disciples carried the fallen people on their backs. Then they started running toward the gate until their feet were sweaty.
On the surface, it would be a very harsh act, but on the contrary, it turned out that they were literally practicing the Tao of saving people (활인(活人)). If the ancestors had seen this scene, they would have smiled as if they were proud.
Even YuanShiTianZun (원시천존(元始天尊)/the primeval lord of heaven, one of the highest deities of Taoism) would just smile while praising us if he were to see this scene.
“Come on, Chung Myung! Now calm down.”
“We threw them all away. Every one of them.”
Then Chung Myung, who had calmed down a little, frowned as if he didn’t like it.
“I should have thrown them down the cliff.”
“… Let’s live like human beings, yes? Like a human being.”
“Tsk.”
Chung Myung turned his eyes to Baek Chun, and his eyes were flushed white.
“Sasuk didn’t do anything well either. There are a bunch of stupid things on Mount Hua and you all just watching it! Sect Leader is being looked down on!”
“… I’m sorry.”
“The next time something like this happens, don’t think about it and act. Okay?”
“Yes.”
“Tsk. I’m hungry. Is there any rice left in the kitchen?”
Chung Myung shook off the hands holding him and began to walk toward the kitchen.
Everyone who saw it sighed deeply.
“……I wonder if this worked out well.”
Looking at the result alone, it can be said that the solution was successful, but the process far exceeded Baek Chun’s imagination.
“Anyway, I feel good inside.”
“I agree.”
Baek Chun shook his head at the words of Yoon Jong and Jo-Gol.
“It’s refreshing on the inside, but……. No, it’s really refreshing inside. Still…….”
It was then.
“Are they gone?”
“Oh my gosh!”
Because of Hyun Young, who suddenly appeared again, Baek Chun was terrified and backed away.
“Elder!”
“What about them?”
“…Chung Myung ordered us to throw them out of the gate.”
“Really?”
Hyun Young clicked his tongue.
“But they’re Sajo in Mount Hua Sect, should we have to send them like that?”
“Then?”
“Sprinkle salt.”
“…….”
“Spray the whole thing.”
“……Yes.”
“What about Chung Myung?”
“He went to the kitchen.”
Hyun Young nodded slightly and walked toward the kitchen.
Looking at the back, everyone shook their heads with disappointed faces.
‘He’s the scariest person I’ve ever seen.’
‘In fact, if there was no Chung Myung, wouldn’t this have happened in the end?’
Baek Chun mutters in a weak voice.
“Is this a Taoist Sect or an abode of demons?”
No one was willing to answer that.
The next morning.
“By the way, where is Chung Myung?”
“Huh? Didn’t he go back to his room yesterday?”
“He didn’t even show up in the morning training.”
“What? He wasn’t in his room.”
Anxiety began to grow on the faces of the disciples.
Chung Myung doesn’t usually skip training. If he skips training, there will definitely be a person who plays as a substitute. Aren’t he a person who comes out to the training even if he just lies down and sleeps?
But such Chung Myung cannot be seen from the morning? This was obviously strange.
“Where the hell is he….”
“Sasuk! Chung Myung is coming.””
“What?”
Baek Chun turned his gaze to the direction Jo-Gol was pointing.
“Huh?”
Then he tilted his head.
Would it be strange to see Chung Myung appearing anywhere in Mount Hua? But it was definitely strange that the guy who came back yesterday walked back in from the gate again.
And with a bottle of liquor in one hand.
Judging from the different shapes of the bottle he brought yesterday, it was clear that he had gone down the mountain.
Baek Chun, who couldn’t overcome the curiosity, quickly ran toward Chung Myung.
“Where have you been?”
“Yes?”
Chung Myung shrugged at his question.
“No, I have something to do, so I’m at the bottom of the mountain for a moment.”
Baek Chun frowns.
“Chung Myung-ah Do you happen to be?”
“What am I, a butcher? Am I going to beat them again and again?”
“…Right? You’re not, right?”
It was only then that Baek Chun breathed a sigh of relief.
He thought Chung Myung might have run to them again because he couldn’t overcome his temper.
But Baek Chun felt both subtle relief and anxiety that Chung Myung did not go to them.
“Will it be all right?
“What?”
“……In any case, they were once Sajo of the sect. Of course, there is no problem with the sect condemning the evil of those who abandoned the sect itself, but the way it is…”
Third-class disciples beat them.
There was room for development into a scandal that would harm the honor of Mount Hua if this was raised. The problems are not only with Mount Hua but also with Chung Myung’s reputation.
“Oh, that?”
“Yes, I think…….”
“Oh, don’t worry.”
“Huh?”
Chung Myung smirks.
“I’ve already been to the kids who specialize in it. I won’t have to worry about them again.”
“…….”
“Let’s go.”
“……uh.”
As Chung Myung walked to the Training Field, Baek Chun tilted his head and followed.
‘Someone specialized?’
‘Who are you talking about?’
Looking at Chung Myung’s back, he couldn’t think of anyone.
Baek Chun turned his head slightly and looked beyond the gate.
