Return of Mount Hua Sect - Chapter 583
The head of Jogungchae, Merciless Yama (무자염라(無慈閻邏)) Won Gang (원강(袁江)), asked while listening to the report with a pretty interested face.
“So they went down to the city and were massacred?”
“Yes. But it didn’t look like they were dead.”
“Being deprived of own martial art and imprisoned is the same as being killed.”
“Yes, that’s right, Chaeju.”
“Tsk tsk tsk. That bearish bastard did it in the end.”
Im Sobyong is not a pushover.
If he had been so easy to deal with, he wouldn’t have controlled the Nokrim for long. Many pointed out his lack of strength, but Won Gang’s idea was a little different.
‘Rather than his lack of strength, it’s great that he has held the position of Nokrim King for a long time with that weakness.’
Although the existence of Myriad Man House suppressed the voice of dissatisfaction, if other people than Im Sobyong had risen to the position of Nokrim King with such skills, he would have run away before even a month had passed, regardless he was the son of the predecessor or whatever.
However, Im Sobyong has maintained his position as Nokrim King solely through resourcefulness and conduct. Doesn’t the fact that these three strongholds, which had only been at odds with each other, joined forces prove how great he is?
It was only natural that he would be defeated since he used an obvious move against Im Sobyong.
“He paid the price for his thoughtless move.”
“Does Mad Ox Sword have any thoughts in the first place?”
“Tsk tsk. That’s right.”
Go Hong was the perfect opposite of Im Sobyong.
If Im Sobyong is a man who overcomes the lack of strength with his brain, behavior, and background, Go Hong is a man who overthrew his lack of brain with only his own strength.
“I’d rather have Im Sobyong keep his position than for such a person to become the Nokrim King.”
“Hehe. Chaeju. How dare that crazy ox climb to the throne of Nokrim King? The position will of course belong to Chaeju.”
“That’s only natural.”
Won Gang smirked.
‘If I push it moderately, I’ll fall out of my pool.’
He is cautious because he hasn’t caught Im Soboyng yet. However, Go Hong’s patience was poor. As soon as Im Sobyong was secured and the seat of Nokrim King was vacant, it was clear that he would immediately reveal his tyranny.
By then, it is not a dream for Won Gang to take the position of Nokrim King if he steps up and isolates Go Hong appropriately.
“But, Chaeju, you have to be careful.”
“Hm?”
Won Gang slightly frowned at the words that came from cutting off the flow.
“What are you talking about?”
“I mean Mount Hua.”
“Mount Hua?”
“Yes, no matter how much it was in the city, wasn’t Yachadang of Daebyeolchae get hit without even using their hands? This means that Mount Hua’s power is more than expected.”
“… That is true.”
Won Gang scratched his jaw.
Im Sobyong’s scheme must have exercised its power, but wouldn’t a strategy work only if the minimum amount of strength was necessary to carry it out as planned?
It means that Mount Hua at least had the strength to handle Yakchadang.
“But there’s nothing wrong with that. The stronger the enemy, the better. Either way, Daebyeolchae and Mount Hua will cut off each other’s power.”
“Yes.” “I don’t think they’ll climb a mountain with three Stronghold inhabited unless they’re out of their minds. And that Go Hong won’t stand being humiliated with his violent personality. We just have to wait until those Daebyeolchae guys go down the mountain and wage war with Mount Hua.”
“Yes, Chaeju!”
Won Gang twisted the corner of his mouth.
Daebyeolchae, who is greedy to become the Nokrim King, and Mount Hua, who came all the way here with a sense of justice that has nowhere to be used, are just idiots.
It was the moment when Won Gang, who was satisfied with the situation, laughed.
Kwaaaaang!
“Wha- What!”
He jumped up from his seat in shock at the ear-piercing sound.
But before his head could turn, the ceiling collapsed and something came over him.
‘A wooden fence?’
Kuuung! Kuuuuung!
As the great trees hit his room, the whole building collapsed.
Kwaaang!
A large wooden pillar passed right next to Won Kang’s face.
“…….”
With his eyes wide open, he trembled.
“What, what the hell’s going on!”
“Are you all right, Chaeju!?”
Ppudeuk.
Won Gang gritted his teeth instead of answering.
A tree wouldn’t crush him, but the sudden events were enough to drain his patience.
“What are you doing, you idiots! Check out what happened right now!”
“Yes, Chaeju!”
Covered in dust, the subordinates rushed outside. Won Gang clenched his fists tightly.
‘There’s no way this would happen naturally, which means someone must have come with killing intent.’
‘Is it Go Hong?’
He moved his feet thinking of the most likely suspect in his head.
Jumping over the rubble, he saw a group of martial artists leaping over the shattered wall and rushing inside.
“An attack!”
“Chaeju! Attack! It’s an assault!”
“I have eyes, too!”
Won Gang’s veins stood up with a roar.
‘It isn’t Daebyeolchae?’
At first, he thought that the Daebyolchae people violated the treaty while they were pissed off, but the color of those rushing inside was clearly different from that of the Daebyolchae people he knew.
“Who are these guys!?”
“Mount Hua, it’s Mount Hua Sect!”
“Mount Hua Sect?”
“Yes! The plum blossom pattern on their chest makes it clear.”
“Y -You crazy! Why would Mount Hua Sect who’s in Changsa come in here!”
Those with thoughts wouldn’t attack more than 1,500 people with just 100 people. This is not a matter of discussing the art of war. Even a child who just started to walk knows better than one shouldn’t start a fight like that.
But that nonsense was now unfolding before his eyes.
“Why are Mount Hua who should be at odds with Daebyeolchae here!”
It felt like there was a fire inside.
Doesn’t this mean that his plans have all fallen apart! “Chaeju!”
“Damn it! Stop them! Smash all of those bastards’ necks and blow them up!”
“Yes!”
Despite the sudden attack, Won Gang wasn’t a pushover either. He did panic, but he dealt with it quickly.
The bandits of Jogungchae, who received his order, roared and rushed at the disciples of Mount Hua.
“Cut off their neck!”
“Skin them alive!”
And as if to prove their identity, they uttered harsh remarks. But it wasn’t really just a loud voice to show and prove their ferocity.
Members of the Righteous Faction, who check each other’s skills with swords and show courtesy in battle, are at first perplexed when faced with vicious killing intent and harsh words.
Even if they don’t panic, they can’t avoid being overwhelmed. This was a method they had learned through experience dealing with members of the Righteous Faction for a long time.
But…….
Unfortunately, the people they are dealing with now are not ordinary Righteous Factions.
“Where are these things trying to rob us carelessly, I’ll kill them!”
“I’ll throw you off the cliff, you bandits!”
“Let’s see if you can talk like that with Plum Sword stuck in your snout!”
On the contrary, seeing the disciples of Mount Hua rushing at each other with even more ferocious momentum, the bandits who were raising their spirits flinched involuntarily.
‘What? These bastards?’
‘Aren’t they Righteous Factions?’
The momentum of the disciples of Mount Hua, who had bloodshot eyes, momentarily overwhelmed the bandits.
How could they know?
For them, things like killing intent and curses are nothing more than Chuimsae that they encounter daily during training. Compared to Chung Myung’s curses and sharp sarcastic remarks, which seemed to dig out the flesh with a needle, their curses were peaceful and polite, no different from the teachings of Gongmaeng .
Mount Hua’s disciples, who got a head start, hit the faltering bandits.
“Wachaaaaa!”
“Dieee!”
They rushed with unmatched momentum, scattering elaborate and splendid swordsmanship that did not match the momentum.
“Oh!”
“Plum, plum blossoms?”
Bandits who saw the flower-like swords, opened their eyes wide. The beautifully blossomed sword soon dug into their vital parts with fierce force.
“Argh!”
“Argh!”
In no time, the cut bandits screamed, collapsed on the spot, and fell backward. As the battle line collapsed instantly, Mount Hua’s disciples did not miss the opportunity and rushed forward with more ferocious force.
“Defeat them!”
“Mount Hua’s name is on our shoulders!”
“Chung Myung is watching from behind!”
“Why are you saying that, you worthless bastard!”
It was a truly bizarre sight.
Roughness and killing intent like that of Evil Faction. However, the martial art unfolded at the edge of their swords are simply exquisite and neat.
The bandits were greatly bewildered. They’d never seen such a sight in their life.
‘What the hell are these guys….’
Meanwhile, Chung Myung, who was watching from behind, rolled up the corners of his mouth. Mount Hua’s disciples were seen to have completely gained momentum..
‘Even dogs eat half of their food in their front yard?’ It’s because they have confidence. But now, this one is more confident.
“If you hit the first punch, you have to make the most of it!”
Chung Myung raised his hand and pointed forward.
“Go, Sasuk! Sago! Sahyung! Break their back!”
“We are, we’re at it, you bastard!”
“That guy, for real!”
Everyone cursed with their mouths, but they were already moving as soon as Chung Myung stretched out his fingers.
Baek Cheon, Yoo Iseol, Yoon Jong, and Jo-Gol, who ran in a flash, jumped over the heads of the other Mount Hua’s disciples and soared into the air.
Won Gang opened his eyes wide.
The image of four people soaring into the air under the backlight was clearly seen as if they were engraved in their eyes, and his heart seemed to stop for a moment.
“Haaaap!”
The four simultaneously descended over the heads of the bandits and cut the air with their swords.
Soon the plum blossoms bloomed.
It was Blossoming Flower (개화(開花)), at the same time Falling Petal (낙화(落花)).
The plum blossoms, which seemed to be the same as each other, harmonized and showered the bandits with a Rain of Flowers (비(花雨)를).
It was a beautiful sight to watch from afar, but it was a horror to bandits who welcomed the rain with their whole bodies.
Flying petals dug into their body relentlessly.
Mount Hua Five Sword lightly descended on those who fell without even a single scream.
Kkuuk.
Baik Cheon held his sword tightly and aimed at the bandits who retreated with a cold face.
“Show them what kind of place Mount Hua is!”
“Uuuoooohhh!”
The fraudsters shouted for the world to leave. Led by Mount Hua Five Sword, everyone swung their swords at the bandits fiercely.
“We are Mount Hua Sect!”
“Let’s gooooo!”
Even if no one watches, the plum blossoms bloom.
The plum blossoms, which endured the chill in the cold snow during the long winter, finally showed off their red and colorful appearance to the world.
If someone later discussed this moment, it would be expressed in this way.
It’s the day Mount Hua, who upholds Righteousness, finally lifts up the old, cracked sword and begins to make a grandiose appearance.
Mount Hua is finally back.
