Episode 539: Who are you trying to fool?

“We’re in trouble. They’re trying to activate their innate weapon.”

One of the mercenaries spoke with a pale face.

“It looks like you guys are the ones who should die.”

Yongjin stuck the bloody sword he was holding into the ground, then extended his left hand and blasted blue light.

The blue light, which was the size of a palm, had already grown to nearly a hundred feet by the time it reached the two people.

It was a giant scale. The scale flew as fast as lightning and reached the two people in the blink of an eye.

The two of them activated their innate weapons, but before they could use them, they were hit by Yongjin’s reverse scale.

Pok, pok.

As the giant scale penetrated the bodies of the two people, their bodies were turned to dust by the pressure of the giant scale.

bang!

With a thunderous sound, two of the innate weapons fell to the ground.

Bam!

I heard a sound of something falling and turned my head to see a round object rolling on the ground.

That was the head of the first person Yongjin had killed. In an instant, the room became as quiet as a mouse.

hook!

Yongjin wiped the blood stains off his blood-red sword, placed the sword on his shoulder, and began walking towards Na Chungseong, who was trembling.

As Yongjin approached, Na Chungseong’s face turned pale in surprise. His whole body trembled, but he didn’t even have the courage to run away.

Na Chung-seong knew how evil Yong-jin was because he had personally witnessed it. He had single-handedly killed the geniuses of Jeongdo and Sado, and wherever his sword passed, blood flowed and became a river.

Na Chung-seong was already extremely scared, and his mouth was turning blue.

“I…… I…….”

Sigh.

A bloody lightning bolt came out of Yongjin’s sword and cut off Na Chungseong’s neck. Yongjin lifted Na Chungseong’s head and opened his mouth with an apologetic expression.

“I’m sorry, but I don’t like long speeches, so I had to cut you off.”

Bam!

Na Chung-seong’s headless corpse slowly fell to the floor.

Everyone, including the Iron Blood Mercenaries, felt a chill down their spines. They looked at Yongjin with surprised faces. Killing someone while laughing? Isn’t that too cruel?

In particular, Yongjin’s expression was always calm, which was scarier than someone with a fierce expression. A fierce face expresses anger, but it was more frightening to kill a strong person with a calm expression like Yongjin, one after another, with a single stroke of the sword, than to kill someone with anger.

Even the mercenaries who licked the blood from the blade felt dizzy. The brutality that Yongjin displayed was spine-chilling.

The strong men of the Mokseol Mercenary Corps looked at Yongjin with a mixture of awe and unfamiliarity. They doubted if he was the same friendly Yongjin they had been drinking and cursing with.

Yongjin raised his head in his left hand and pointed at Jo Cheong-woon with his right. The Iron Blood Mercenary Corps instantly fell into despair, and Jo Cheong-woon’s face turned ashen.

Yongjin killed five innately strong men and Na Chungseong while only taking a few breaths. They had no chance to escape. Like prisoners on death row waiting for their sentence, no one moved.

“There are rules in martial arts. I had no intention of interfering with your mercenary fights, but your actions today have gone too far.”

Yongjin said while looking at Jo Cheongwoon.

There were many groups in this world, and it was common for outside forces not to intervene in the internal conflicts between the groups.

For example, the scholars’ disputes, the merchants’ topknots, and the struggles within groups were all matters that each individual had to resolve. For an outsider to interfere in such matters was considered extremely mean and taboo.

If the Iron Mercenary Corps had only targeted the Mokseol Mercenary Corps, then no matter what means they used, it would have been just a family feud, but becoming a lackey of Geoungbo and spying on the Mokseol Mercenary Corps was an act that broke the rules.

Since they broke this rule first, Yongjin, an outsider, was able to mess with them with confidence.

As this thought crossed Jo Cheong-woon’s mind, even the small spark of hope went out and he became depressed. Yong-jin would not give him any chance.

“I did this all by myself. My brothers don’t care.”

Jo Cheong-woon spoke loudly.

“Regimental Commander.”

The strong men of the Iron Blood Mercenaries were surprised that the regiment commander would sacrifice himself for the mercenaries.

The same was true for the Mokseol side. They felt uncomfortable because they didn’t know that Jo Cheong-woon would make the choice to sacrifice himself at such a crucial moment.

“Okay, stop acting. Who are you trying to fool? Do you think that will make me weak-hearted and let you guys off easy? You can’t fool me with such childish means. I’m not a saint. To me, people are divided into two types. One is my friend, and the other is my enemy. Whoever tried to kill me, I will kill without hesitation. You may have tried to gain my sympathy with such an act, but it was in vain. Because I never intended to kill you in the first place.”

Yongjin said calmly.

“really?”

Jo Cheong-woon immediately showed a happy expression when Yong-jin said that he had no intention of killing him. The righteous expression from a moment ago disappeared in an instant.

“Damn, that cowardly little bastard! I almost got fooled!”

The strong men of the Mokseol Mercenary Corps couldn’t stand it anymore and started swearing.

The other Mokseol mercenary group strongmen also shook their heads. For a moment, they felt sorry, but they didn’t think that it was all just his acting. They were all fooled.

Jo Cheong-woon also realized that his expression did not match his actions, and his face hardened. However, he did not care. After all, Yong-jin had said that he had no intention of killing him.

“Get out, everyone, except your space rings.”

Yongjin spoke listlessly, carrying a bloody sword on his shoulder.

“What? Our space ring contains all our wealth!”

Jo Cheong-woon’s complexion turned pale again.

“I told you that I don’t like useless talk.”

Yongjin shook the head of the person he was holding. He had said the same thing to Na Chungseong.

Jo Cheong-woon trembled at the sight. He didn’t like it, but he had no choice but to take off the space ring.

“Don’t give it to me, give it to the Mokseol Regimental Commander. I’m also a member of the Mokseol Mercenary Corps. If I couldn’t stand it and embezzled it, the Regimental Commander would probably kick me to death.”

Yongjin said with a smile.

Mokseol blushed and glared at Yongjin. But at the same time, he was moved by Yongjin’s declaration that he was a member of the Mokseol mercenary group.

Even if he said that, how could such a strong Yongjin join the mercenary group? The reason Yongjin said that was because he wanted the Mokseol mercenary group to become the best in the mercenary world.

If it becomes known that someone like Yongjin was a member of the Mokseol Mercenary Corps, many people will try to join them as they expand their power in the future.

The reason Yongjin didn’t kill Jo Cheong-woon was also a decision for Mok-seol. Wouldn’t it be better to take revenge on the resentment that had built up over a long time from being treated by the Iron Blood Mercenaries?

She was no match for Jo Cheong-woon now. Furthermore, Jo Cheong-woon had great influence in the mercenary world and had many gangs.

However, it only takes a month or two for Mokseol to soften the bones, so by then he will be able to sweep the mercenary world. The reason Yongjin made his name known now was to buy a few more months for Mokseol’s mercenary group.

As long as the big tree called Yongjin was there, no one would be able to touch them for a while. Even if Yongjin left, Mokseol would soften the bones, so there was nothing to fear.

In addition, she obtained Jo Cheong-yun’s space ring. Since half of Jo Cheong-yun’s wealth was in the space ring, he would not be able to fight back for the time being.

She felt indescribable gratitude towards Yongjin, who had thought about all the circumstances before and after his actions.

When the regiment commander handed over the space ring, the Iron Blood Mercenaries also took off their space rings with a serious expression.

“Hahaha, you’re such a idiot! When you were beating us up, you all acted like emperors, but now you hide your heads like turtles!”

The warriors of the Mokseol Mercenary Corps were delighted at the sight.

The warriors of the Mokseol Mercenary Corps, which had about a hundred members when it was first formed, could not withstand the pressure of the Iron-Blooded Mercenary Corps and left one by one, leaving only twenty.

Even though most of them had left, the Iron Blood Mercenaries still harassed them. If the strong man of the Muk clan, who thought it was too much, had not stepped forward, the Mokseol Mercenaries would have disappeared long ago.

The reason why the powerful Mok clan could not overlook the actions of the Iron Blood Mercenaries was because they tried to dismantle the Mokseol Mercenaries by mobilizing external forces.

The reason they wanted to completely destroy the Mokseol mercenary group was because Jo Cheong-woon harbored evil intentions after being rejected by Mokseol. The strong man of the Mok family could not stand the sight of Jo Cheong-woon trying to kill him for such a thing, so he stepped forward and protected the Mokseol mercenary group.

Meanwhile, the Mokseol mercenary group had a hard life. Jo Cheong-woon did not use external force, but internally rejected Mokseol. They were not given profitable missions, but instead dealt with demons or collected medicine to turn into resources for performing.

But the harsh environment tempered their will and faith. They were all trustworthy and close.

Mokseol’s heart pounded as she looked at the hundred or so rings in her hand. The wealth contained within them would be beyond her imagination.

In particular, Jo Cheong-woon’s space ring is piled up like a mountain of spirit stones, and there are probably quite a few elixirs and electrical engineering methods. All of these were assets Jo Cheong-woon had accumulated over many years.

When Jo Cheong-woon put down the ring, he tried to look calm, but his face looked just like his father had passed away, and now he understood why he had that expression.

As the Iron Blood Mercenaries all left and the Mokseol Mercenaries remained motionless in their places, Yongjin opened his mouth with a smile.

“Why are you staring at me like this instead of quickly clearing the battlefield? Those guys are born with geniuses, so they should all be rich.”

At that sound, people immediately ran towards the corpse. They quickly found four space rings and two intact weapons.

There were originally supposed to be six space rings, but two of them were shattered by Yongjin during the fight.

Of the two remaining weapons, one was a longsword that glowed with a cold light, while the other was a strange weapon with two curved hooks near the handle.

However, both of them were valuable as innate weapons. In particular, the long sword was exactly what Mokseol needed.

There was no need to even mention the space ring. The space ring of Na Chung-seong, a rich young master, was much richer than the entire Iron Blood Mercenary Corps.

When people handed over the loot, Mokseol hesitated.

“Yongjin……”

“I don’t need this. Keep everything you can use and sell everything you can’t. Don’t forget to buy me a drink. It doesn’t matter where you go, just buy me a drink.”

Yongjin said with a smile.

“Those idiots from Geoungbo are trying to compete with the Muk family. Do they want to die?”

An angry voice was heard from afar, and someone was running towards us.
