Return of Mount Hua Sect - Chapter 590
Chwaak!
The sound of their feet hitting the ground was audible, like the rustling of silk.
It meant that their Qing Gong had reached the top level. With that sound alone, they could easily guess their martial art level.
Hyun Sang and Un Gum’s faces hardened at the same time.
They don’t know what’s going on, but at least it was clear that they didn’t have a favor for Mount Hua.
‘It’s different.’
He was different from the bandits they had been dealing with.
Aside from the enormous amount of pressure felt from their momentum, the sensations felt from their energy were clearly foreign.
“Here they come!”
Blood-colored men who rushed quickly without a single shout flew over the heads of bandits.
Kwadeuk!
“Kkeuk!”
When they accelerated while mercilessly trampling on the heads of the bandits, their speed nearly doubled.
However, what caught the attention of the disciples of Mount Hua more than the flying blood-colored ones was the sight of those whose heads were trampled on and collapsed with their necks bent.
“Even at the ally……?”
“These crazy bastards!”
The angry disciples of Mount Hua’s eyes were bloodshot.
“Thus!” But before they could vent their anger, the swords of the blood-colored men quickly flew toward the shoulders of Mount Hua’s disciples.
As they swung their swords in unison against this, huge wind pressure rose in all directions.
The storm of energy swept the area as if tearing it apart.
Chaeaeaeng!
The plum sword and the rapier collided violently in the middle of that wind-pressure storm.
“Keuk!”
The faces of Mount Hua’s disciples were distorted by the impact that seemed to break their wrists. The weight of the force itself was different from that of the bandits’ weapons so far.
Mount Hua’s disciples naturally groaned at the heaviness they felt for the first time today, but the blood-colored men did not lose their composure at all. Instead, they have been pressing down their rapier with a strange smile.
Gwak Wei’s face gradually distorted. The energy crushing his sword was so strong that his whole body throbbed.
But his head was already following Mount Hua’s teachings before thinking about reason and logic.
‘Power is not dealt with by force.’
It was the moment when his sword was loosened and his opponent’s sword was about to be deflected.
Kagagagak!
The rapier crawled as fast as a living snake on Gwak Wei’s sword as if they had waited for this moment.
‘Oh!’
It was a bizarre move, like a poisonous snake seeking its prey. The rapier cut Gwak Wei’s wrist which was holding the sword.
Sogok!
The upper part of his wrist was slit open by half an inch, and red blood gushed out.
“Ugh!”
Kaaaang!
Gwak Wei, gritted his teeth, swung his sword vigorously, and hit the rapier that flew in for his face.
Throb. Throb.
The pain in his wrist made his hair stand on end.
Strong.
He could feel it with just a few exchanges. Their swords were extremely strong and frighteningly sharp.
What about the killing intent they exude? Just facing it felt like his whole body was numb and his heart shrunk.
‘This is the real battle!’
A life-and-death struggle to risk one’s own life and take an opponent’s life.
As soon as he realized the fact, the sword he was holding became heavy and the field of view that had been grasping various parts of the battlefield began to become extremely narrow. It’s like fighting while submerged in deep water.
“Haat!”
However, the blood-colored men did not even allow Gwak Wei to find his composure. Even before he could pull himself together, the opponent gave off a creepy killing intent and swung their sword like a viper.
Kaang! Kaaang!
Dozens of swords energy flew in all directions, aiming at Gwak Wei’s body. It was as if dozens of vipers were flying in unison.
‘Calm down!’
In response, Gwak Wei’s sword was removing the attack individually. However, his sword, which slowed down little by little, began to lag behind the speed of the rapier.
Sogok!
“Keuk!”
The rapier grazed his sides.
It barely brushed, and the depth was negligible, too. But the important thing was not the depth of the wound, but the fact that his sword was not following his opponent’s swordsmanship.
Paaaat!
Soon after, the light-like rapier again penetrated his body through his sword’s defense. After stabbing him in the shoulder, it lodged in his chest.
Puuuk! Puuuk!
Although it was not so fatal because of the weakened momentum and the characteristics of the rapier that penetrate the energy emitted from the Plum Blossom sword, the wound is still a wound.
As the wounds increased, Gwak Wei’s sword became dull.
“Euaaaat!”
He screamed and swung his sword as if having a seizure. The sword energy splendidly scattered along with his full internal strength, and soon filled his entire front.
However.
Kagagagak!
The rapier penetrated his sword defense (검막(劍幕)) at once. And flew straight into Gwak Wei’s heart.
Gwak Wei opened his eyes wide.
Kaang!
At that moment, a plum blossom sword flew in just in time from the side and repelled the rapier.
“Wake up!”
Gwak Wei, who came to his senses belatedly, bit his lower lip tightly.
If Sahyug next to him hadn’t helped him, those rapiers would have been stuck in his heart by now.
His fingertips trembled slightly.
No matter how hard he made up his mind, he couldn’t be calm until the moment death passed right in front of him.
Gwak Wei wasn’t the only one being cornered.
“Argh!”
“Damn it, these bastards are strong!”
“Stay where you are! Don’t back off!”
The tide of war has changed completely. The level of the blood-colored men was surprisingly high, and it was not even comparable to the bandits they had dealt with so far.
The situation couldn’t be better even with just the number barely reaching fifty.
Kuung!
Reddish sword energy spewed out like an awl from the edge of the swords of the blood-colored martial artist who stepped forward strongly and jumped up.
“Keuk!”
The sword skill poured out, aiming only at the vital points of Mount Hua’s disciples. Blood gushed out here and there, and the grinding of teeth resounded.
‘Where the hell are these guys…….’
“Heuahahahahat!”
Mount Hua’s disciples could hear Go Hong’s loud laughter in their ears, who had unknowingly shrunk.
Perhaps the laughter was a signal, but the blood-colored men stopped there, losing their momentum. Naturally, everyone’s eyes turned to Go Hong, who burst into a frenzy.
Go Hong openly laughed at Mount Hua’s disciples and Im Sobyong between them.
“The world must have seemed easy when you were on a roll.”
“…….”
“So you must’ve thought you could clean up Daebyeolchae at any time, you bastard?”
Im Sobyong’s expression hardened at the sight.
“That’s why the position of Nokrim King is undeserved for a guy like you. That arrogance will strangle you. You stupid rat! Hahahahat!”
The sound of Go Hong’s laughter was so loud that it rang throughout the Nokchae. Mount Hua’s disciples stared at him with their teeth gritted.
But surprisingly, it was the blood-colored men who responded before them.
“He’s very excited.”
“Should I say he’s like a bandit bastard he is?”
Baek Cheon’s eyes instantly cooled at their response.
‘Bandit bastard?’
‘They call their boss a bandit bastard? Aren’t these Go Hong’s minions?’
‘No. Right, these guys aren’t bandits of Nokrim.’
And Im Sobyong’s reaction that followed after gave him more confidence.
“Who the hell did you bring in, you stupid bastard!”
Im Sobyong even roars with killing intent. Bloodshot eyes and clenched fists were now telling how angry he was.
“Aren’t we the same?”
“This…….”
He gritted his teeth.
He brings in Mount Hua because he is confident that Mount Hua will not eat the Nokrim itself. But now a more dangerous smell is coming from those drawn by Go Hong.
There is no way that these people can only do good things to Go Hong and leave him alone.
He’s sure Go Hong will be turned into a puppet or removed immediately. And they will try to knead the Nokrim in his hand.
If that happens, the Nokrim is really over.
‘Who the hell are they?’
Go Hong is stupid. But he doesn’t trust others easily. How many people in the world can completely bewitch such a person?
“Who the hell are you…….”
“That’s it.”
Go Hong waved his hand as if he was annoyed.
“I don’t have to talk to a dead man anyway. The result is the same if you drag on time!”
“…….”
“This mountain will be your grave. What are you guys doing! Hit them all! Kill them all!”
The blood-colored men looked back at Go Hong and laughed bitterly. There was no loyal answer or harsh response. They began to pressure Mount Hua’s disciples again, exuding killing intent as if they were just going to obey the order.
The rapier of the blood-colored men spouted red swords energy.
In the tumultuous murderous intent, the bandits of Daebyeolchae also held insanity in their eyes and began to attack Mount Hua again.
Mount Hua’s disciples groaned unconsciously.
“Elder-nim.”
“Hm!”
Hyun Sang nodded at Un Gum’s call.
‘We must not lose momentum!’
It is unnecessary to explain how important morale is on the battlefield. They had to revive the morale that had somehow been deflated.
But what should he do?
“Hahaha!”
Before Hyun Sang could even organize his thoughts, the blood-colored men at the front rushed toward Mount Hua’s disciples.
“Stop them!”
“Hold on!”
The moment when Mount Hua’s disciples gritted their teeth to respond.
Paaat!
An ear-splitting sound broke out. And someone climbed over their heads and, like a flash, pierced through the blood-colored men.
The two blood-colored men in front opened their eyes wide and looked around, but all they could see was the back of someone who had already passed by.
Geugeuk.
The blood-soaked sword lightly scratched the ground. All eyes were focused on the sword.
Blood.
The person holding the sword was fine without a single drop of blood. Then where would that blood flow from?
‘Unbelievable….’
Tuuk.
The head of the one who turned his head rolled down to the ground. The remaining body staggered momentarily, then lost its balance and collapsed.
Thud. Thud.
The sound of the neckless body falling stopped the battlefield. Those who seemed ready to go into battle at any moment couldn’t even dare to open their mouths. They just looked at the man standing alone.
Geugeut.
The man’s sword scratched the ground once again. As if to draw everyone’s attention to himself.
“These small fry…..”
A calm voice.
It was an unbelievably calm voice that came from the mouth of someone who had slashed the neck of two people cleanly just a moment ago.
Chung Myung slowly looked at Mount Hua’s disciples.
All the disciples in front of that gaze bit their lips.
He didn’t say anything in particular. He didn’t even stare at them with a particularly angry expression. He just looked at them.
However, Mount Hua’s disciples felt a harsh rebuke from the emotionless gaze, as if it was saying, ‘Are you just scared of these guys?’
“This…….”
At that time, a person with blood-colored clothing standing closest to Chung Myung gritted his teeth and rushed like a lightning bolt.
“Dieee!”
At the same time, Chung Myung’s cool gaze moved.
The gaze was fast, and the sword was even faster. Like lightning, his sword struck and bounced off the rapier.
Puuk! Puuk! Puuk! The sword, which swelled instantly, stabbed the blood-colored man’s upper body repeatedly. In an instant, dozens of stab wounds were placed on the chest, and red blood flowed out of the mouth like waterfalls.
“Keu… eu….”
Paaaat!
The moment the sword moved for the last time, the blood-colored man’s severed head was thrown into the air.
Chwaaak.
Chung Myung, who swung his sword to shake off the blood as if nothing had happened, twisted his mouth.
“…….”
The blood-colored men held their breath.
The smell of blood was thick.
The bastard they faced now had a strong blood scent that they could not feel from others. It was almost suffocating.
“I don’t know where they’re from, but…….”
A vivid killing intent flowed out of Chung Myung’s eyes.
“I’ll make you regret coming here.”
Chung Myung, who revealed his white teeth, attacked the blood-colored men like a wolf seeking its prey.
