Episode 1258 You will figure it out. (3)
“Now, Jangmun-in.”
“…”
“What should I do?”
Geumyangbaek could not come up with an answer to that urgent young voice. I just stared at the back of Cheongmyeong, who was standing alone in front of Changgui University.
‘What’s happening?’
No matter how much I think about it, I can’t understand it at all.
The enemy standing in front of you is none other than all the people. No matter how small it may be, its power alone is enough to annihilate a small or medium-sized faction in an instant.
However, he appeared in front of those people without any countermeasures. Even though the enemy’s main force had not yet moved far away.
“Jangmun-in!”
Geumyangbaek suddenly came to his senses when he heard an urgent voice again.
“Woah, what was the original plan?”
“As soon as a signal was given from over there, they would immediately rush to the shore and seize the ship.”
okay. That was definitely the original plan. But as the situation progressed, a fundamental question arose.
“What exactly does that signal mean?”
“…”
“Should I leave now?”
No one could answer that question.
The signal to use in this situation is obvious from the beginning. If someone shouts and runs forward, just follow them and run together.
There is nothing to worry about and nothing to think about.
But the scene unfolding before their eyes was very different from what they expected. Who would have imagined the sight of only one person walking languidly against an armed force of all people?
“For now…”
One of the elders hesitated and then opened his mouth with a confused look on his face.
“How about… watching a little longer? The other Cheonwoomaeng people haven’t shown up yet.”
Geumyangbaek did not reply at all but just looked at Cheongmyeong.
‘Who is the author…’
It’s absurd and scary.
That irresponsible Haewi was absolutely absurd, and at the same time, I was even more afraid that all my plans would go wrong because of that small action.
“But…”
“Hmm?”
“…Why are they doing that?”
At those words, Geumyangbaek narrowed his eyes and observed the situation ahead.
‘Now that I think about it…’
Cheongmyeong of the Hwasan Swordsman approached slowly enough to make me yawn. So, they must have clearly seen Cheongmyeong approaching them.
The strange part starts right here.
All of them are bloodthirsty demons. These are the evil spirits of Guangdong, who are reputed to be the roughest among the four schools.
So, if it were the people Geumyangbaek knew, there was no way they would just sit there and watch someone who approaches them with hostility. If it were normal, I would have already rushed in and torn it to shreds.
But…
‘Why isn’t it moving?’
Geumyangbaek did not know. No matter how much you watch with your eyes wide open, you will never understand.
What kind of existence is that little young man to those Maninbando?
Because they don’t know what the name Hwasan Sword Association means to them.
⁂ ⁂ ⁂
“…Holsan Sword Association.”
The face of Beomchung, the chieftain of Changgwi University, Dokbigeomgwi (獨譬劍鬼), hardened.
‘Why is the author here…’
Maninbang’s Changguidae.
Changgwidae is enough to instill the fear of all people in the world simply by having the affiliation of Maninbang in front of its name.
Naturally, the powerless civilians are afraid of them like the Grim Reaper, and even warriors with considerable power and whimpering tend to lower their tails in front of the name Maninbang.
Dokbigeomgwi Beomchung was confident. The name Changgwi University exists to instill fear, but it does not exist to make one feel fear.
But at this moment, Beomchung painfully realized that everything in the world is relative.
Who is the Hwasan Sword Association?
He is the one who went head-to-head with the swordsman Jang Il-so at Heukryongchae and performed the mythical act of breaking through Surochae by force.
Before that, he defeated the Red Army of the Maninbang, which was of the same level as them, and he was the one who inflicted the stigma of an uncommon defeat on the Maninbang by making all the armed forces that attacked the volcano gohon.
And above all…
‘The one who joined hands with Lianju to defeat the Demonic Cult.’
The mythical force he displayed in Hangzhou is still talked about by those who witnessed that hellish battle.
Those who headed to Hangzhou with Jang Il-so at that time were people who were willing to throw themselves into the fire of hell just because of their loyalty to Jang Il-so. They were people who not only revered Jang Il-so but also blindly trusted him.
A person who can get the words out of the mouths of such people that he is not one inch behind Ryeon Ju. That kind of person is standing in front of you right now.
My blood went cold and the hair on my whole body stood up.
Although he had never once felt fear in front of an enemy, it was impossible to maintain his usual calmness in front of the black uniform and the red plum blossom pattern.
To the Safa people, that military uniform was equivalent to the attire of an envoy.
Funny enough, it was here that Beomchung really felt what the helpless civilians felt when they saw them.
‘What should I do?’
Cold sweat soaked into my hands.
A deadening silence fell on the coast, which had been quite noisy and cluttered just a moment ago. All you can hear is the sound of the waves crashing in.
Likewise, it means that even the members of Changgui University are holding their breath. It also means that those who used to act like hungry wildcats, unable to hold back even for a moment when faced with an enemy, are now curled up and trembling like rabbits that have seen a tiger.
However, Beomchung was angry about this and did not have the slightest desire to scold him. As the owner, he can’t hide his embarrassment at this situation, so who can he blame?
‘Signal…’
He swallowed dryly and tried to turn his head without realizing it, but then flinched. And I bit my lip until it bled.
‘What am I doing now?’
The enemy is alone now.
Of course, I don’t know how many people might be hiding behind them, but in any case, the only one who showed up in front of them right now was the Hwasan Sword Association.
But why on earth are you so scared that you’re looking for a signal to notify the main unit? Is it true that the person who is in charge of the famous Changgwi of all people is thinking of asking for salvation first because he cannot handle just one person?
This was an unbearable shame for Beomchung, who was a notorious military man in Guangdong and had great pride as the head of Changgui University, hand-appointed by Jang Il-so.
“Hwasan Sword Association.”
Cheongmyeong was delighted by the cracked voice that came out of his lips.
“oh?”
A grin appeared on his lips.
“It looks like I’m pretty famous now. People recognize me right away even without explaining.”
“…”
“Should I say I’m glad? Until now, I’ve been having a hard time explaining everything to the little bastards.”
“…Why are you here?”
Cheongmyeong shrugs his shoulders.
“Well, is there any reason why I can’t come to a place where Sapa bastards also come and go?”
“…”
“Anyway, that’s not important right now.”
Cheongmyeong glanced behind me.
At that moment, Beomchung’s body suddenly twitched.
An enemy standing close by turns its head in front of you? This was a disregard that cannot be described even with the word “horrible.” However, Beomchung, who was tightly gripping the handle of his sword as if he could not contain his anger, could not pull the sword out of the scabbard. Just grab it with all your might.
“Hmm.”
Soon, a low nasal sound escaped Cheongmyeong’s mouth as he turned his head again.
“I don’t want the distance to increase too much.”
The moment Cheongmyeong raised his gaze as he muttered, Beomchung saw it.
The two eyes of Cheongmyeong that were cold enough to send shivers down the spine.
Maybe it was because of those eyes. Or perhaps it was because the sight of Cheongmyeong’s white teeth revealed between twisted lips was so eerie for a moment.
Whatever the reason, Beomchung took a step back without realizing it. And that led to a completely different result than he intended.
The battle signal of Changgui University was always the same. When he took a step back, it was a signal to hit the enemy. Anytime, anywhere.
The reason why this movement can be a signal is very simple. This is because Changguidae never retreats in front of an enemy. In particular, it was impossible to imagine in Changguidae’s mind that Beomchung, the great master, would be pushed back by the force of the enemy in a confrontational situation.
One of them, who saw the Great Lord retreating, rushed towards Cheongmyeong as if it was natural. It was the result of intense training. Regardless of the situation, my body moved first.
“No…”
Only then did Beomchung realize what he had done. However, it was already too late to catch him who was charging at him with all his might.
“Die!”
With a tearing spirit, the sword that had been raised towards the blue sky of Haenam was brought down with even more force.
And that moment.
Paaaaaa!
The sword light flashed faster than a flash of lightning and passed right through the wrist holding the sword.
Suddenly.
“Bwa…”
A terrible sound and a low moan rang out. The sword light, which was recovered faster than when it was extended, was thrown out again. And even the one remaining wrist was split precisely.
Suddenly!
The Tao slipped out of my weakened grasp. However, before the sword could fly into the air, the sword light that stretched out one after another began to split the body of the person who rushed at it.
Suddenly! Suddenly! Suddenly! Suddenly!
“Quaaaahhhhh!”
A horrifying scream shattered the silence that had settled down on the coast.
“Aaaahhh!”
The sword cuts through the skin, twisting and tearing the muscles. In the face of such terrible pain that I couldn’t even put it into words, all I could do was scream.
In an instant, the tendons of his entire body were severed, and he fell to the ground, as if a tooth had collapsed. My whole body was shaking like an aspen tree, perhaps because of the pain or because I couldn’t believe what was happening to me.
chin.
And at that moment, Cheongmyeong’s dark plum sword touched the kneeling man’s neck.
Cheongmyeong, who was looking down at the man with infinitely cold eyes, twisted his lips into a smile and spoke softly.
“It’s not enough.”
Suddenly!
Paaaaaa!
A fountain of hot blood spurted from the man’s torn neck. Dark red blood was splattered and stained on the white sandy beach.
dump.
The man’s body collapsed and fell.
Cheongmyeong, who was looking at the body with indifferent eyes, slowly shifted his gaze. Toward Changguidae, who was looking at him almost mesmerized.
“…I can’t hear it this much.”
Cheongmyeong revealed his teeth and said bitterly. The deadly force that flowed from him covered Changgui University like the cold snow of the north wind.
“Scream louder. Maybe you can survive if you do that?
At that moment, an eerie light flashed in Cheongmyeong’s eyes. Soon, he rushed towards the Garg Changguidae at a frighteningly fast speed. He immediately penetrated between the Changguidae’s battle lines. Cheongmyeong
‘s The Amhyang Plum Sword drew an equilateral arc like the sun rising in the sky.
