Episode 1435. You’ll have to kill me first. (5)
Jeokho’s eyebrows twitched slightly. The first words that caught his ear were the two syllables ‘Jongnam.’
‘Jongnam is here?’
Of course, I kept in mind that Jongnam could step forward. No matter how much I paid my respects, I won’t be able to just sit and watch once the Sapaeryun enters Shaanxi in earnest.
However, Sapaeryun has not yet set foot on the island. Nevertheless, a person who calls himself Jongnam dared to appear in this land of Sacheon. That alone was enough to upset my stomach.
But what really upset Jeok-ho was the man who stood in his way, even more than the name Jong-nam.
I’ve never even heard the name. Then, he is the one who failed to make a name for himself in the powerhouse. Moreover, judging by its appearance, it is still just a baby.
In that case, it would have been easy to cut it down in one go, but strangely, Jeokho’s silent sword could not be moved as easily as expected.
Could it be that he was overwhelmed by this young guy’s momentum? That can’t be possible. He is an enemy. I wasn’t the type of person to be pushed around by a kid like this.
Nevertheless, there was one reason why he could not easily extend his reach.
‘I can’t see any gaps.’
It felt like I was standing in front of a huge wall.
Of course, people swinging their swords at rocks are more common than you might think. However, if the condition is that the sword must be able to split a rock with a single blow, no one will be able to easily shake off the sword.
Just like the current Red Tiger.
“Jongnam’s Song Baek…”
Jeokho chewed his lips and glared at Lee Songbaek with cold eyes. Those calm eyes that didn’t waver even in the face of him.
“Are you saying you’re going to stop us by yourself?”
“⋯⋯I never said I was alone.”
Jeokho’s eyes widened slightly. Lee Song-baek made eye contact with Jeok-ho with an unfazed face.
“Some people are just a little bit late.”
As if to prove that point, a group of people came quickly from behind the transport bag.
Faaah!
A man in white military uniform jumped up from the ground, landed next to Lee Song-baek, and glared at Jeok-ho. Lee Song-baekwa was a person with a different blade-like prayer.
“I didn’t know you liked standing out so much.”
As the man spoke, Songbaek Lee fixed his gaze on Jeokho and bowed his head slightly.
“I’m sorry, death penalty. “I’m in a hurry so stop.”
“under.”
The man snorted as if he didn’t like it, glanced at Jeokho and said.
“Obviously we’re a little late.”
Jeokho’s face distorted for a moment. This is because the man who caught a glimpse of himself casually turned his gaze to look behind him.
‘This…!’
It was impossible for a kid who was probably just over 30 to dare to turn his gaze in front of Jeokho without his liver going out of his stomach.
But at the same time, Jeokho had to be acknowledged. That arrogant attitude fits this man surprisingly well.
Maybe it’s because of its gorgeous appearance.
Even though he was wearing the same simple military uniform as the man who called himself Lee Song-baek, this man’s aura was completely different from Lee Song-baek.
If Lee Song-baek is like a giant tree that has grown strong, this man is like a richly decorated palace.
What was certain was that even in the midst of the different prayers, there was a clear feeling of momentum that could not be ignored.
‘Is this Jongnam?’
Jeokho’s spine suddenly felt chilled.
If these people, who seem to be barely two generations of disciples, are this great, how strong are Jongnam’s elders and first generation disciples?
It was said that the center of Gupailbang was Shaolin, shaman, and Jongnam, but it seems that that was not a lie.
widely! Percussion!
Soon, dozens of swordsmen lined up around the two people.
“Big brother!”
“I don’t think I need to say much. “Those guys…”
“execution. “You must not forget Jang Mun-in’s instructions.”
A man with a flashy appearance stopped talking and clicked his tongue briefly in response to a heavy remark from the side. And said.
“Saving people comes first. “Don’t go wild.”
“yes!”
Jeokho’s eyes suddenly sank.
‘damn.’
The remnants of the Tang family passed by Jongnam and moved away. But Red Tiger couldn’t catch them. The moment he moves, Jongnam’s sword will grab his ankle and hang down.
‘Why at this time!’
Jeokho unconsciously bit his lip in anger. Then, he opened his eyes brightly with life.
‘It doesn’t matter who the opponent is. I only carry out orders.’
It was a moment when the enemy’s strength suddenly soared. A calm voice rang out.
“Step back.”
Jeokho turned his head and looked at the person who spoke. Before I knew it, Jang Il-so had passed the struggling elders and was within a stone’s throw of him.
Tell me to back off? Came all the way here? Just because of these few guys?
A moment of repulsion rises in Jeokho’s eyes. His hand holding the sword tightened.
However, that momentary anger froze immediately when I heard the cold voice that followed.
“Red tiger.”
“⋯⋯.”
“Can’t you hear me?”
Jeok-ho, who glanced at Lee Song-baek and Jin Geum-ryong, bit his lip and kicked the ground. He got down next to Jang Il-so and slightly lowered his head.
“sorry.”
“no. I understand. Because my stomach is boiling too. But…”
Looking at Jin Geum-ryong, Lee Song-baek, and Jong-nam’s disciples lined up around them, Jang Il-so’s eyes quirked up.
“There’s nothing you can do. Desire is good, but greed brings anger. “Behind the young tiger is its mother, so she will probably arrive soon.”
Jeokho’s face hardened. Mother tiger. That must be referring to Jongnam’s main unit. This means that the main force of Jongnam, which he had just remembered, is now rushing into this place.
“And they won’t be the only ones coming here now. “Some really dangerous guys are coming.”
At those words, Jeokho closed his eyes.
This is definitely not wrong. We won’t be able to deal with it until we get to Jongnam, but the volcano is probably coming here now. Maybe even a party.
All people are strong. But isn’t strength relative? When dealing with the three sects of Hwasan and Jongnam Sacheondanga, the position will be completely different from before. Perhaps Sapaeryun will have to make a desperate escape on the huge land called Sacheon.
“It’s a little disappointing, but… overindulgence is prohibited. “Then shall we go back?”
“⋯⋯What you said is absolutely right. But wouldn’t it be better to kill them and get rid of them?”
Red Tiger’s eyes turned to Lee Song-baek and Jin Jin-ryong. Jang Il-so also seemed to be moved by those words and looked at the two people with strange eyes.
“It’s not a bad idea, but… I should have said it earlier. “It’s already too late.”
“yes?”
At that moment, several figures flew in behind Jongnam’s swordsmen.
“Look. “This is why I hate old people.”
The moment everyone’s attention was focused on Jongnam, several elders of the party family who had joined in from somewhere stood guard behind Jongnam.
They left at the start of the battle and watched the situation, then reappeared with the appearance of Jongnam.
Jeokho asked with a puzzled look as he looked at the elders of the Tang family who were breathing heavily.
“Well, it’s only a few people.”
“Tsk tsk. This is why you always suffer.”
“⋯⋯What do you mean?”
“Arrogance is a shortcut to hell. Of course, there is nothing like a party song standing alone on a flat surface. You can step on it as much as you want. However, Tang Ga, who has obtained a shield to block his path, becomes an even more formidable enemy, like a famous archer who has taken control of the highlands.”
“⋯⋯.”
“The more cowardly a famous archer is, the more amazing he is. In that sense, those old people must be amazing people, right?”
The elders’ faces turned red at those words.
“The shield is small, but it doesn’t seem to be easy. “There is no way this will be resolved on my own.”
The moment Jang Il-so exaggeratedly sighed, Jin Geum-ryong opened his mouth.
“That Sapa guy talks so much.”
“⋯⋯Hmm?”
“If you’re confident, go for it. “I’ll cut off his head.”
Looking at the arrogant eyes, Jang Il-so let out a deep smile.
“That’s a good thing. “When I recite it with my butt out like that, it loses its shape a bit.”
“what?”
A murderous look appeared on Jingeumryong’s face. Before he could convulse, Lee Song-baek quickly opened his mouth.
“you are! “Are you okay with killing so many people?”
Jang Il-so’s eyes fell on Lee Song-baek.
“Is that possible?”
“Then…”
“It’s fun. “Very much.”
This time, Lee Song-baek’s momentum also became fierce.
Defeated Jang Il-so. He was the one who dyed the world with blood while Jongnam was in mourning. At the thought of it, I want to cut off his head right away…
‘strong.’
I could tell for sure. The author is extremely strong. My whole body feels numb. To be honest, I didn’t have the confidence to cut them down even if they all risked their lives.
Jang Il-so looked at the rings on his hands with a leisurely gaze and slowly turned them.
“So, you’re pretty cheeky about rabbits.”
Then he shrugged his shoulders.
“But I can’t be like a fox caught in a trap just to change the habits of a few cheeky rabbits. Let’s go back. “Before the scary tiger comes.”
“yes.”
Jeokho nodded silently. I still don’t quite understand it, but since it was Jang Il-so’s decision, there must be a solid reason.
At that time, Jang Il-so turned around with an exaggerated gesture and said scornfully.
“And Jeokho, it’s not as great a victory as you think.”
Jeok-ho, who looked back with a questioning look on his face, immediately understood what he was saying.
The scene that appeared on the land where the poisonous smoke had cleared was a little different from what he expected. The elites of the Maninbang, who had charged in with great force and cut down the enemy, were all lying down and convulsing.
“Kruk⋯⋯. “Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr…”
Red and black foam constantly flowed from the mouth. These people, who were convulsing so much that it made their hair go crazy just by looking at them, were unable to overcome the pain, so they started tearing themselves apart and clawing at their exposed flesh. The red flesh that was exposed quickly turned black again.
“Ugh…”
A moan naturally flowed from Jeokho’s mouth. When…
The number of those who fell reached as many as fifty. Normally, they might not have paid any attention, but the people who rushed in to deal with them were elites selected even from among the people.
Losing fifty elites in the process of dealing with only twenty or so elders meant that this battle was by no means a business to be spared.
Jang Il-so burst into laughter after seeing Jeok-ho’s reaction.
“I guess the party song looked funny. “He’s just a Sapa bastard.”
Jeokho rolled his head with a hardened face. Even in Sapa’s fights, he experienced poison countless times. Therefore, I know how to destroy it well. But now I couldn’t help but feel it. The poison they have been dealing with and the poison of Sacheondanga are different from the very beginning.
“Decryption…”
“Hmm?”
Jang Il-so’s gaze became a little gloomy at what Jeok-ho said. It was as if he was scolding you for making the right decision right now.
“⋯⋯Ryeonju.”
“Tsk tsk. “It’s because he’s so kind.”
Jang Il-so walked slowly.
The Tang family elders who had been hacked to death and my subordinates who were poisoned and convulsing were at my feet. These are the subordinates he trained with great care. Nearly dozens of such people are suffering from addiction, convulsing and struggling.
“That’s not what true kindness is. This is Sacheon, right? And the enemy will soon arrive here. In this situation, affection is…”
Jang Il-so looked down at his convulsing subordinate. The blood-shot subordinate’s eyes desperately followed Jang Il-so, and Jang Il-so smiled mercifully.
“Yes, I am here.”
Crack.
Jang Il-so’s foot instantly cut off the convulsing man’s neck. The attendant shivered once and then soon became quiet.
Jang Il-so spoke in a calm voice.
“Do you understand now?”
At that moment, the rings on both his hands became beams of light and shot out.
Quack! Quack!
The flying ring instantly pierced the necks of those who fell and convulsed.
“Ryo Ryeonju…”
“This is what mercy is.”
Jang Il-so, who glanced at the dead subordinates with cold eyes, turned his head and looked at Jong-nam’s disciples, who were still on sharp alert.
‘He’s a Jongnam.’
I thought it would take longer to get here even if I moved right away after hearing the news. It seemed like my butt, which used to be a bit thin, had gotten a little tighter.
“This is what makes the world interesting. “There are always variables.”
Lee Song Encyclopedia and Jin Geum-ryong.
And a mighty horde approaching from afar. Jang Il-so, who had them all in his eyes, looked away without hesitation.
“Okay then…”
Jang Il-so, who was about to say something leisurely, suddenly widened his eyes and turned his head.
Jeokho and Honggyeon were surprised by the reaction. This was because I knew that it was not common for Jang Il-so to react like this.
“Oh my…”
Jang Il-so’s eyes were slightly distorted.
Soon, a terrible murderous weapon was launched. Now not only Jang Ilso, but everyone had no choice but to turn their heads and look in one direction. The place where the deadly force that swept them was shot.
Something appeared at the end of the desolate land.
It was so far away that it could only be seen as a dot, but Jang Il-so knew very well what it was.
“Yeah, I knew it would be like this. “If I had been careful, I would have died here.”
Jang Il-so, who had laughed, turned around. Then a terrifying roar rang out from afar.
“Jang Ilsoooooooo!”
It was a roar so fierce that everyone’s bodies stiffened. However, Jang Il-soman joked calmly.
“Now, let’s withdraw. Before that tiger’s teeth get stuck in my neck.”
A sword aimed at his neck.
Jang Il-so, seeing the sword called Cheongmyeong, raised one corner of his mouth at an angle.
