Return of Mount Hua Sect - Chapter 464
Swoosh!
Dozens of warriors appeared in front of them, the sound of their blades cutting through the wind.
Snow white robes.
The word Ice (빙(氷)) is engraved on the left chest.
‘Is it the North Sea Ice Clan?’
In an instant, Baek Cheon’s face hardened.
They had come to see the North Sea Ice Clan but were taken aback when they met their martial artist.
‘Sasuk.’
‘I know.’
Did they say “Good people don’t come easily and those who come don’t bear good intentions”?
The icy expressions on their faces revealed that they had never come here with good intentions.
The Ice Clan’s top martial artists gave them a cold stare.
And finally fixed his gaze in one spot.
Hong Yi-myung and Hong Jin-bo.
“Things like rats… … .”
The voice that came out of his mouth was colder than his expression.
‘Huh?’
With a curious expression, Baek Cheon returned Hong Yi-gaze. myung’s Hong Yi-myung, who smiled softly, appeared to be a different person.
“I didn’t think you’d be hiding out here. You must be wasting your life.”
The cold-hearted man’s eyes turned to Hong Jin-bo next to Hong Yi-myung.
“…Is that the kid?”
Hong Yi-myung’s body flinched.
He instinctively reached out and grabbed Hong Jin-bo’s shoulder.
Rather, the man rolled up the corners of his mouth as if the appearance convinced him.
“If you had left the North Sea, your life would have been spared. A clumsy regret caught your ankle. I will let you be buried in the North Sea as you wish.”
The man gestured with his chin.
“Kill…….”
“No, wa- wait a minute!”
Baek Cheon, who had been treated like a borrowed barley bag the whole time, raised his hand. (A person who does not talk or get along with others and sits in the corner at a gathering.)
Martial artist of the Ice Clan turned their heads in unison and looked at Mount Hua’s disciples.
Back Cheon slipped his hand down again and coughed loudly at the brutal glare.
“An outsider……….?”
The face of the man in the lead was distorted.
“No matter how cornered you are, I can’t believe you’re inviting outsiders. Have you forgotten the duty of the North Sea people, Hong Yi-myung?”
Hong Yi-myung’s face was distorted by the words.
“How dare you say such a thing with your mouth? You were the first who attracted foreign powers.”
“Your snout still alive well.”
The man glared at Baek Cheon and asked.
“Who are you?”
“Ah, we’re…….”
As Baek Cheon tried to answer, Jo-Gol momentarily poked him in the ribs and answered immediately.
“… we’re just a passing merchant.”
“Merchant?”
The man frowned and glanced at the cart.
And when he saw the carts full of sacks, he clicked his tongue as if he understood.
“You fools twist the orders. Trade between Jungwon and the North Sea has long been banned.”
“That…. We haven’t really traded anything.”
“It is still the same. You will die anyway.”
The man gave a short chin gesture as if he had nothing to say more.
“Kill them all. Cuts that young man’s head so that his face doesn’t get damaged.”
“Yes!”
Along with a short and determined answer, the martial artist of the Ice Clan all pulled out their swords and stepped forward.
Hong Yi-myung grabbed Hong Jin-bo’s shoulder tightly with his big hand.
“Jin-bo.”
“Fa- Father…….”
“I’ll stop them. Don’t look back and run away.”
“Huh?”
“There’s no time to talk! Go away!”
“N- No, Father! I…….”
“I told you to go right away!”
Hong Yi-myung eventually pushed Hong Jin-bo’s back. Then, with his hands slightly spread from side to side, he faced the martial artist of Ice Clan who was approaching them.
“You can’t go until you kill me.”
“You’re saying the obvious thing. A child who has not mastered martial arts can be killed at any time. But the opportunity to take the life of Ice Fox (빙호(氷狐)) doesn’t come easily.”
At the outright sarcastic remark, Hong Yi-myung raised his energy while biting his lips.
And on the other hand.
“…I think they’re fighting?”
“Really?”
“…I don’t think they care about us.”
“They’re going to kill us later anyway.”
“What do we do?”
“I don’t know.”
Baek Cheon and Jo-Gol scratched their heads.
It seemed like the situation was becoming tense, but they couldn’t understand what was going on, so it was ambiguous to side with which one.
“I think he’s stronger than I thought.”
“Right?”
“But you don’t think he can deal with those people alone, do you?”
“Hmm.”
Baek Cheon sighed deeply.
He would have taken Hong Yi-myung’s side without hesitation if it were normal. But now they are on their way to the North Sea Ice Clan. He didn’t want to do something against the North Sea Ice Clan.
The problem is…
‘If we don’t help, he’s going to die, and if we help, I’m worried about the future.”
He couldn’t do this, but he couldn’t do that.
“What should I do?”
Sereurung.
The sound of a sword being drawn at that moment crossed their ears.
Baek Cheon and Jo-Gol their heads in surprise. Yoon Jong was pulling out a sword with a very comfortable face.
“Wha- What are you going to do?”
“I have to help.”
“Huh?”
“Even animals know the grace of being fed and put to sleep, but how can a Taoist and not just a human being ignore this?”
‘Is this punk starting again?’
“And you heard that, didn’t you?”
“What?”
“The man told them to kill us all. Apparently, he doesn’t want to keep any witnesses alive. Then what’s the difference between fighting earlier or later? If it’s the case, we should go toward saving people.”
It was just as Baek Cheon was about to answer back.
Kwaang!
A loud explosion broke out from the side where Hong Yi-myung was.
In the eyes of the stunned disciples of Mount Hua…….
Puut!
Hong Yi-myung was seen spraying blood and falling backward.
Kwadang.
Stomping on the ground, he immediately rose to his feet. But red blood was flowing out of his mouth.
The red blood dripped down to the snow field.
His hands outstretched forward were still firm, but the legs supporting his body could clearly feel their strength loosening.
“The Ice Fox is done, huh.”
“I’m old.”
On the other hand, the faces of the Ice Clan martial artist who pushed Hong Yi-myung were full of leeway.
“Fa- Father…….”
Hong Jin-bo, who was watching from a little distance, called his father in a trembling voice.
Then Hong Yi-myung looked back with bloodshot eyes. A roar then burst out.
“Didn’t I tell me to go right away!”
“B- But…….”
“Do you want to see me bite my tongue here?”
“…….”
“Go! Go! You must live! hurry!”
Hong Yi-myung’s tone changed, but Hong Jin-bo was so frightened that he didn’t seem to notice.
“I’m in tears.”
The martial artist of the Ice Clan laughed at the desperate figure and mercilessly narrowed the siege.
“There is no need to fret. If you die, that little boy will soon follow.”
Hong Yi-myung clenched his teeth when he heard that. Then he stared at the warriors of the Ice Clan with fearsome eyes.
“If you have the pride of being the warriors of the Ice Clan, you wouldn’t dare say such a thing. Do you understand who he is?”
“I know very well.”
The man in the lead laughed coldly.
“I can say this because I know it. Well, an old man who is bound by the ghosts of the past cannot understand it no matter how much he hears it.”
“You scoundrels will be punished by Heaven.”
“There’s no needless to say. Die!”
As soon as the signal fell, the warriors of the Ice Clan quickly rushed toward Hong Yi-myung. Hong Yi-myung waved his hands and raised his energy once more.
Chwaaaat!
White energy emanated from his hand. And then, like a blizzard, a white storms erupted one after another.
“Cold Snow Palm (한설장(寒雪掌))! So you can do it!”
The terrifying chill storm poured out threateningly, but the warriors of the Ice Clan rushed in front of it without caring a bit.
Then.
Kwaaang! Kwaaang!
The dao containing the Dao Energy (도기(刀氣)) hit the storm of Cold Snow Palm one after another.
Like snow being hit in the air by a cypress tree, the storm of Snow Cold Palm was broken and crushed.
“Cough!”
Perhaps it was too much to handle the attack of a dozen people alone, but Hong Yi-myung immediately spat blood and retreated frantically. But the martial artist of the Ice Clan did not let him go easily.
“Die!”
The Dao flew from the front and flew in after Hong Yi-myung’s neck accurately.
The moment when Hong Yi-myung opened his eyes wide.
Kaaang!
A sharp sound echoed through the air. At the same time, the flying dao bounced back.
“Huh?”
The eyes of the one who drew the sword trembled momentarily.
Puuk.
The dao spun around and flew up and was stuck in the thick snow.
“…….”
Hong Yi-myung, who thought his neck would be cut off soon, looked at the man who blocked his front with surprised eyes.
“Y- You.”
Outstretched shoulders.
Straight posture.
The most heroic of all…….
“……darn it, I’ve done it again!”
…… or not.
Baek Cheon, who blocked Hong Yi-myung’s front, put his hand inside the hat with an awkward expression and scratched his head.
“Well, it was going to happen anyway.”
Yoon Jong walked over and stood next to Baek Cheon.
“They would have tried to kill us anyway. It’s the same no matter when we fight.”
Jo-Gol also stood on the other side of Yoon Jong, pulling out a sword. Yoo Iseol and Tang So-so have already pulled out their swords and approached slowly.
“What are you guys? You don’t seem like an ordinary merchant, do you?”
“… … I am not an ordinary merchant.”
Baek Cheon shrugged.
“But it seems that we don’t have to talk about who we are.”
“…This guy?”
Jo-Gol helped Baek Cheon.
“It’s the same that you didn’t reveal your identity. These ignorant things.”
“That’s right. It’s been a while since you said the right thing.”
“Right? Hehe.”
Jo-Gol grinned with satisfaction after hearing Yoon Jong’s rare praise. But the faces of Ice Clan’s martial artists were getting colder and crumpled.
“How dare you get involved in the affairs of the North Sea? Jungwon people?”
Hearing those words, Baek Cheon twitched the corners of his mouth and shook his head.
“You said you were going to kill us.”
“…….”
“You’re a funny person, aren’t you? You said you’d kill us a while ago, but now you’re saying don’t get involved. I don’t know what you’re talking about anymore.”
Jo-Gol and Yoon Jong’s gazes collided in the air.
‘Sasuk… Here we go again.’
‘Leave it alone. Isn’t that a habit?’
Baek Cheon has a lot of thoughts before fighting, but he doesn’t look back when he decides to fight.
“Amitabha.”
Then, lastly, Hye Yeon walked slowly and stood by them.
“I don’t know what’s happening, but a man’s life is precious. I cannot condone killing in front of me.”
“… these people?”
The martial artist of the Ice Clan opened their eyes wide as if a little startled. And then they sneered coldly.
“They say that Jungwon people are arrogant, which seems to be the case. You dared to interfere with the matter of Ice Clan in the North Sea. You will pay the price for it.”
The man pulled out the dao that had been stuck on the ground again and gritted his teeth. He seemed to be very angry.
The faces of the disciples of Mount Hua slowly hardened.
‘Will it be okay?’
‘Something’s still a little uncomfortable…..’
It was just then.
Deulssok. Deulssok.
“Oh?”
“It’s coming.”
Mount Hua’s disciples looked back at the cart with a slightly brighter faces. When those who were facing each other turned their eyes, the martial artist of the Ice Clan also looked at the cart reflexively.
The high pile of round luggage is shaking. It collapsed little by little from side to side. And underneath that, a bigger and rounder piece of luggage suddenly appeared… … .
‘No, is it luggage?’
A man with a fur coat over his body poked his head out.
Then, he screamed with a face that contained all the irritation in the world.
“No, why are you dragging your feet again!? It’s colder if you stay still!”
At the absurd sight, even the martial artist of the Ice Clan forgot what to say.
Why does a man come out of luggage?
“No, you punk! Look at the situation and say something!”
“What’s with the situation? What?”
“Ice Clan! It’s Ice Clan!”
“So?”
Baek Cheon paused for a moment and tilted his head as he was about to burst into anger.
Chung Myung was violent but not stupid. He wasn’t someone who didn’t know what it meant to meet Ice Clan here.
Which means…
“Can we?”
“I’m paying attention to everything. Take care of it.”
Baek Cheon rolled up the corners of his mouth at Chung Myung’s heartless words.
“Come on!”
Baek Cheon, who blew even the last discomfort, tilted his posture to the point where he looked slightly arrogant and stared at the martial artist of Ice Clan.
“Did you hear that?”
“…….”
“If you go back now, I’ll make sure you don’t see the bad things. Our kids are a little rough.”
Then, the martial artist of the ice Clan, who was in the lead, gritted his teeth…
“These punks running toward the thunder naked…….”
Then he gave the order.
“Kill them all!”
“Yes!”
The martial artist of the Ice Clan now all in unison rushed toward Mount Hua’s disciples and the monk.
Baek Cheon said without batting an eye, pointing his sword straight.
“Don’t kill them!”
“Yes!”
Mount Hua’s disciples, with Baek Cheon at their command, rushed toward the martial artist of the Ice Clan like lightning.
