Episode 122
Moment of decision (4)
‘Yeonggong!’
Mukbi bit his lip.
She was hiding at the top of a tree about twenty miles away from the battle site. Although I didn’t particularly learn the art of hiding, I was skilled at hiding.
That is what an archer is. For sniping, expert cover skills were essential.
Slur.
Before I knew it, an arrow had been struck at the protest at Hongryeon Palace.
She recalled the sound of Yeonhojeong.
‘Living isn’t everything. There is a master. You should save your arrows for that expert.’
Are you a master? I didn’t feel that much of a presence.
But now, she saw a swordsman who was pouring out prayers even higher than Yeon Ho-jeong.
‘Amazing!’
Mukbi swallowed his saliva without realizing it.
‘Maybe he’s stronger than the practitioner. Moreover, the practitioner used up quite a bit of his strength and stamina while fighting with the assassins.’
Dangerous.
It is said that a fight between experts can be decided by a single piece of paper. To put it that way, even a one-on-one match without the assassins participating was dangerous.
‘I could never do that.’
Mukbi was fully prepared.
If the enemy’s sword threatens Yeonhojeong, he will hit even a few arrows.
* * *
Mong-ui examined Yeon Ho-jeong’s body.
‘You’re well trained.’
Despite his slender appearance, his body has ideal balance. The muscles of his entire body were evenly developed, without any deficiency.
Plus that axe.
‘New soldiers.’
I don’t know who made it, but it was such an amazing weapon that it left me in awe. Even Mong-ui, who used a sword as his main weapon, felt greedy for a moment.
“indeed.”
The corner of Mong-ui’s eyes gradually darkened.
“I heard he was a great powerhouse. I thought it was definitely worth it since I took on the power of the famous family on my own. But I didn’t know it would be to this extent.”
Yeon Ho-jeong frowned.
‘What is this guy?’
The dull eye area is strangely annoying.
The smell of blood was strong. The fishy smell of blood lingered all over my body.
‘But he has learned the correct technique. That’s also at an incredible level.’
Slurp.
Mong-ui pulled out the sword from behind his back.
His sword was unique. It was a long sword that was three to four feet long, and the width of its body was only half that of other long swords.
Is that why? It looked longer and sharper. It was like looking at an awl with a sharp edge.
‘It’s similar to a narrow-pointed sword.’
The Hyeopbonggeom was a cylindrical sword with the blade of the sword body cut and rounded. It should be seen as a sword that maximizes the power of stabbing.
It was Mong-ui’s sword that sharpened that narrow-pointed sword.
Tsutsutsutsu.
An unusual energy flowed from Mong-ui’s body.
Yeon Ho-jeong’s face hardened.
‘strong.’
He was someone who surpassed his current physical capabilities and endurance.
Although he appears to be around 40 years old, he has accumulated amazing martial arts skills. Although he was not a transcendent expert, he could be considered the leader among the so-called peak experts.
Mong-ui looked around and shouted.
“You will be of no use. “Go now.”
The assassins remained silent.
Their eyes were filled with confusion. The target is Yeonhojeong, but the client tells him to go. Then it is right to go.
However, the client killed their leader. Since our allies were attacked, we had to kill them, but it didn’t seem easy at all.
Mong-ui shook his head.
“This is why you are nothing but tools.”
It was then.
Yeon Ho-jeong caught the dream’s sword dispersing like an afterimage.
Burbubbubbuk!
A small hole was created between the eyebrows of a dozen assassins standing close to Mong-ui.
Yeon Ho-jeong’s eyes widened.
Mong-ui said calmly.
“You can’t handle me anyway. “Since we have lost our leader, we will not be able to launch a systematic attack.”
“….”
“Stop it.”
Susssseu.
The assassins retreated. There was no reason to fight anymore.
Mong-ui took a deep breath.
“The air is nice. “It smells like dirty blood, but I always missed the air of this battlefield.”
“What are you?”
Mong-ui looked at Yeon Ho-jeong.
Wooooow.
A white spirit shimmered in the Gwangryongbu. It was an energy that radiated a majestic yet strong energy.
“Why is the Jeomchang faction’s swordsman targeting me?”
For a moment, Mong-ui’s eyes wavered.
“Do you know me?”
“It’s harder not to know.”
Yeon Ho-jeong pointed his sword with his chin.
“It’s the sword technique you just used, Jeomchang’s Four Day Sword Technique.”
Four-day sword method.
It is a martial art that is evaluated as the strongest swordsmanship of the Jeomchang faction, and was a legendary swordsman who was once called the best swordsman in the world.
The reason Mong-ui wielded such a special sword is because the Four-Day Sword Method is a sword method that focuses on stabbing. In the Four-Day Sword Technique, all herbivores except one were qualified.
“I found out about the four-day sword method… a sword method that was forgotten even in the Jeomchang era of the time.”
That can’t be possible.
The reason Yeon Ho-jeong learned about the Sa-il Geombeop was because it was used by the leaders of Jeomchang during the Saeumgyo Rebellion. There was no way the Jeomchang faction could have lost the Four Swordsmanship.
‘Or did this guy give it back?’
Ugh.
A dull life appeared in the dreamer’s eyes.
It was the look in the eyes of a murderer who had killed countless people.
“You shouldn’t be left alive.”
“It’s not even funny when I came here to kill you anyway.”
“They sent a spray of water on purpose. “I wanted to find out if you were worthy of my sword.”
“….”
“It’s more than I expected. You are fully worthy of receiving my sword. “If I had known he was this talented, I should have not dragged the assassin in.”
Yeon Ho-jeong looked at Mong-ui with strange eyes.
Dream’s cheek twitched. Yeon Ho-jeong’s eyes had the power to strangely irritate people.
“hey.”
“…He has no manners at all.”
“Who’s behind you?”
“what?”
“Who is that behind you? Are you a hidden remnant of a famous family? Or Moyong-gun? “I don’t think it’s the Namgung family.”
Mong-ui was inwardly surprised, but did not show it.
“Nothing to know.”
“okay?”
Yeon Ho-jeong smiled.
“Anyway, we can fight, right?”
Meng Yi sneered.
“Do you think there will be a fight?”
Paaaaaa!
Yeon Ho-jeong’s body moved like a beam of light.
Mong-ui was surprised.
I was prepared for the opponent’s surprise attack, but I didn’t expect it to be this fast. Besides, isn’t he carrying a serious illness that could weigh dozens of pounds?
Quang!
While holding the axe, he attacked with martial arts. This too was a blow that caught me off guard.
‘fast! But….’
Argh!
Yeon Ho-jeong pulled his arm back.
There was a long sword mark on his forearm. He was cut by Dream’s long sword.
‘Quick.’
Even though he didn’t use the four-point sword technique, it was fast. From the beginning, martial arts itself was specialized in kwae (快).
“I’ll see how long I can last with that heavy weapon.”
In an instant, Dream’s sword split into dozens.
Yeonhojeong’s eyes flashed.
Blah blah blah!
The four long swords moved at incredible speeds, aiming to kill Yeon Ho-jeong.
It was a speed you couldn’t believe even when you saw it with your own eyes. Even though he was not using the four-point sword technique this time, he was performing swordsmanship that was far beyond the body vision of a peak expert.
‘….’
Yeon Ho-jeong’s eyes deepened.
Damn it!
Dozens of sparks flew out of the Gwangryongbu’s adrenal glands and then disappeared.
The impact left on the ax blade was significant. Normally, a quick sword does not carry much weight, but Mong-ui’s sword carried sufficient weight.
but.
Coo!
Yeonhojeong, who took the first step toward reigning as a white tiger, raised the Gwangryongbu from the bottom to the top.
A sneer appeared on Mong-ui’s face.
‘You fool.’
It’s fast for a seriously ill person. However, you can cut yourself ten times before the ax blade even touches you.
Dream’s sword moved like lightning.
Bababababaak!
Blood splattered all over Yeon Ho-jeong’s body. It was a trace of a cut made by Dream’s long sword.
‘…?!’
Mong-ui opened his eyes wide.
‘What is this guy?’
Before I knew it, the ax had swept through the bottom of my pants and was up to my knees.
‘Why don’t I get cut?’
I cut myself. But all he cut was skin.
There was a lot of blood loss as there were many sword wounds, but no fatal blow was inflicted. It was incomprehensible.
‘Is this guy’s body invulnerable to the sword?!’
It was then.
In a split second, he was able to see the translucent black energy flowing throughout Yeon Ho-jeong’s body.
‘What is that?’
In my dream, I couldn’t tell that it was the Black Emperor of the North’s martial arts energy.
Creepy!
Before I knew it, the ax was close enough to touch my crotch.
Buaaaaang!
Mong-ui took a step back. In that short period of time, I took five steps back. It was amazing speed.
Flash!
The Gwangryongbu, which rose to the top along with a huge cloud of dust, burst into brilliant white energy.
Quaaaang!
It was a tremendously destructive force.
It was a powerful attack that I have never seen before. If I hadn’t immediately dodged seven more steps, I would have been caught up in the strong wind summoned by the ax and my flesh would have been torn off.
‘That won’t work.’
The black shadow of Yeonhojeong could be seen in the white dust.
Mong-ui’s posture lowered.
‘I’ll finish you off with one sword.’
chuck.
Mong-ui with his sword raised to the rear. A bright light like sunlight emanated from his long sword.
It was the four-day sword method.
At that time, Yeon Ho-jeong’s shadow was seen raising his arms.
‘late. die!’
Mong-ui swung his sword.
Flash!
A quick sword like a beam of light cut through the dust and shot into Yeon Ho-jeong’s heart. It was a faster sword than ever before.
It was then.
‘…?!’
Three arrows were seen fired diagonally in Mong-ui’s field of vision.
Awesome!
“Tsk!”
One shot missed and two shots hit the sword body.
The arrow that flew from the side contained tremendous power. Dream’s swift sword cut through Yeon Ho-jeong’s thigh.
At that moment, a heavy black spear cutting through the dust was drawn into the dreamer’s field of vision as if expanding.
Bye!
“Kaaaaak!”
Dream flew back.
Boom!
Yeon Ho-jeong’s eyes flashed as he was about to see the end. Mong-ui, who hit the tree, was once again shot at himself.
Even though the bridge of his nose is crushed and his front teeth are all broken, he still attacks. It was great patience.
Yeon Ho-jeong clicked his tongue inwardly.
‘Goodbye, man.’
Phew!
Yeon Ho-jeong lowered his posture. Then, Dream’s sword split the air.
Burbubbuk!
“Oops!”
The dreamer rolled on the ground.
There were three arrows stuck in his body. It was the left shoulder, left thigh, and left side.
Faaagh!
Before we knew it, Mukbi had entered full power.
“profit!”
Mong-ui, who tried to stand up while ignoring the excruciating pain, was momentarily startled. This was because I saw a woman approaching at an alarming speed and firing arrows without an arrow.
The protest was held in silence.
Tieeing! Pow!
Mong-ui fell down, coughing up blood.
Paaang!
In an instant, Mukbi stood on both of Mongui’s legs and pulled the strings of the Hongryeon Palace.
Ultra-close-range continuous shooting.
Bub bub bub!
Five silent bullets exploded straight onto Mong-ui’s back. It was a merciless attack.
Mong-ui, who was trembling, soon closed his eyes. He passed out due to serious internal injuries.
“Whoa, I finally caught it.”
“….”
“Why do you look at me like that?”
“Are you really extreme?”
“yes?”
Yeon Ho-jeong shook his head.
“This is absolutely brutal.”
“Anyway, what should I do with this person?”
“You have to take it. “I have something to ask.”
“great.”
“I will lift it.”
“You’re hurt, right?”
“There are enemies left.”
“yes?”
Yeon Ho-jeong looked down at the bottom of the mountain.
“The scattered wolves are looking for this direction.”
“ah!”
“Let’s not look for horizons. Just in case, we must not get involved in the fight.”
Mukbi nodded.
“yes!”
