Episode 169. Intrusion (2)

Just as outside the castle gates, a fierce battle was taking place inside as well.

The warriors of the Cheomseolga clan had completely taken over the castle gates like an avalanche, and the warriors of the Pungwolgyo clan were unable to overcome their power and were slowly being buried.

Chook-.

Nanwoohyun was also fighting against the enemies at the moment. However, at a glance, the surrounding area was almost completely occupied by a white group.

Although he was somehow holding on and fighting, Nanwoohyun seemed to have reached his limit as the enemies’ offensive showed no end in sight.

“Cow, cow lord! This is the limit!”

“…….”

“Run away! Only if the young sect leader survives can we plan for the future!”

The man next to him shouted at Nanwoohyun.

The situation was already tilted in favor of the enemy, making it nearly impossible to turn it around.

Even if we win this fight, the Magic Cult will continue to send troops.

On the other hand, there was no power to supplement this.

From the moment the gates were breached, defeat was almost certain. In order to continue the tradition of the Pungwol Church, at least Nanwoohyun had to be saved.

“I am not backing down.”

“…….”

“Running away once was enough. Are you telling me to endure that humiliation again?”

Nanwoohyun occupied Gwangyu because he could not bear the humiliation.

But this time, they want us to turn our backs on the enemy and run away.

I couldn’t do it. No, I didn’t want to do it even if it meant dying.

“Are you willing to abandon the leader’s will just for that reason?”

“what……?”

“The leader has entrusted the future of our sect to the junior leader! Therefore, the death of the junior leader is the same as the disappearance of the future of our sect.”

When Cheon Il-myeong led his troops and destroyed the Pungwol Bridge, the person who fled with Nan Woo-hyeon was none other than a man.

So, at that time, the man also clearly heard the last will that Nandoul left behind.

When the man said that, Nanwoohyun just stared at the man with blank eyes, as if he had been hit hard in the head.

“You must leave this place now.”

“…….”

“For the sake of our church’s future… please do not forget that the current leader is the Pungwol Church.”

He is soon to be a member of the Pungwolgyo Church.

Hearing that, Nanwoohyun’s eyes seemed to have calmed down somewhat, and he looked colder than before.

“…i get it.”

Nanwoohyun nodded and answered.

If he dies here, the Pungwol Bridge will collapse completely.

Since that would mean the foundation for the revival of the Poongwol Church would completely disappear, Nanwoohyun had no choice but to run away as the man had said.

“…thank you.”

“…….”

“I don’t think I can accompany you this time. But I believe that you can do well on your own.”

“…a shock.”

“Please take care of the future of our school.”

With those words, the man charged towards his enemies.

The man’s determined will can be felt from his back.

That is to give up one’s life and fight.

It was extremely painful to see his most beloved subordinate leave like that, following his father, but Nan Woo-Hyeon turned around, clutching his sword.

Whoosh-.

As soon as he turned around, the enemies blocked Nanwoohyun.

“…….”

Nan Woo-Hyeon quietly stares at the enemies rushing towards him.

Although unspeakable anger was directed at the enemies, the eyes directed at them were now extremely cold.

In that state, Nanwoohyun raised his sword and cut down his enemies in an instant.

Chook-.

In an instant, Nanwoohyun’s new model moved forward.

And some enemies behind them.

Soon, large amounts of blood poured out from the enemies’ bodies, and they dropped their weapons almost simultaneously and fell to the ground.

“…….”

A gap has appeared in the enemy’s encirclement.

Right now, I could probably escape from the enemies through that gap.

In order to secure the future of Pungwolgyo, Nanwoohyun suppressed the anger boiling inside him and tried to run towards it.

Thud- thud-.

Then a man appeared.

Nanwoohyun noticed a man blocking his path with leisurely steps and raised his sword again.

‘It keeps appearing.’

But this time, there was only one enemy standing in his way.

As if he was going to deal with it quickly and get out of the way, Nanwoohyun raised his sword energy and ran forward.

Phew-.

At that moment, a cold wind blew from the front.

The winters of Gwangyu were cold, but the cold wind blowing now was incomparable to that.

When his body froze in the cold that instantly froze his entire body, Nan Woo-hyun missed the sight of the man in front of him.

visor-!

The man was already swinging his sword in the square.

Nanwoohyun swung his sword, shaking off the cold that was binding his entire body, and was barely able to block the sword strike aimed at his neck.

“Are you Nan Woo-Hyeon, the junior leader of the Pungwol Church?”

“…….”

“That seems to be the correct answer.”

The identity of the man emitting a harsh cold air was Seol Yu-hyeon.

Just then, Nanwoohyun seemed to have figured out his opponent’s skills and swung his sword with sharp eyes.

Chaechaechaeng-!

In the blink of an eye, the two clashed their swords countless times.

The two people seem to be almost equal in skill, and neither one backs down an inch.

At that moment, Seol Yu-hyeon stepped back and blew his sword energy with a cold wind.

‘Now is the time!’

The sword energy sent out by Seol Yu-hyeon had the shape of a white tiger.

A white tiger rushes fiercely through the strong cold wind.

As if he had decided that this was Seol Yu-hyeon’s season, Nan Woo-hyeon’s eyes lit up.

Swish-.

Nanwoohyun’s special ability is to absorb the opponent’s energy and send it back as is.

In particular, Nanwoohyun’s secret weapon was to return the opponent’s attack with greater power.

Just as he had absorbed and sent back the attacks of Cheon Yong-un and Cheon Myeong-myeong, Nan Woo-hyeon tried to decide the match by absorbing Seol Yu-hyeon’s energy this time as well.

“……?”

At that moment, Nanwoohyun was able to sense something strange.

I tried to move my sword as usual, but for some reason, it didn’t move as I wanted.

‘What on earth is going on?’

Are you saying that you are addicted to the mountain toxin that destroys your internal energy?

Otherwise I wouldn’t be able to understand this phenomenon now.

However, Nanwoohyun soon realized what was wrong with his swordsmanship, and his eyes widened slightly.

‘The black energy is frozen.’

Upon closer inspection, I saw that every part of the sword was frozen solid, along with the energy.

Because of that frozen part, the energy wasn’t properly transmitted to the sword, and it was impossible to draw out the sword energy smoothly.

One area in particular that was noticeably frozen.

The point where Seol Yu-hyeon’s sword swung most often collided with the ground, and no energy was transmitted at all.

“……!”

Could it be that Seol Yu-hyeon was aiming for this situation?

Nanwoohyun realized too late that he was not the only one who had been waiting for an opportunity to take down the enemy.

‘I can’t believe it even freezes the sword… …!’

I didn’t think it was an ordinary cold air, but I never thought it would freeze my own sword energy as well.

I never thought that my sword energy would freeze just by exchanging sword strikes a few times.

Where on earth did such a guy come from… … Before Nanwoohyun could even contemplate such a question, he saw Baekho approaching right in front of him and his heart grew anxious.

‘It is impossible to use the Wind King’s Sword in this state.’

A sword that absorbs the opponent’s energy and hits them back. That is the Wind King Ghost Sword.

In order to unfold that sword, you must control and manipulate the sword energy to the extreme.

Even in normal conditions, it requires tremendous concentration, but in a state like now where the black energy is frozen and the flow of energy is not smooth, no matter how much I thought about it, the possibility of failure was high.

Woof-.

In the end, Nanwoohyun gave up on using the Wind King Sword and decided to fight him head on.

A dark energy that blooms intensely except for the frozen point.

Nanwoohyun swung his sword at Baekho, who had come close to his nose.

Kwang-!

Suddenly, the roar of the white tiger echoed around the area.

Baekho trying to chew on the sword and Nanwoohyun stopping him.

It seemed like the tight match would continue for some time, but the outcome was soon decided.

“…….”

Before I knew it, the white tiger was nowhere to be seen.

Just looking at that, it seemed like Nanwoohyun had successfully defended himself against Seolyuhyun’s sword attack.

But there was something strange about Nanwoohyun’s two hands and sword.

Nanwoohyun’s sword, which had only been partially frozen, was now completely frozen, and the cold air spread down it, affecting both of his hands.

Jeok-.

At that time, a crack appeared in the sword.

As if frozen to the core, the sword shattered into pieces like ice and fell down in a heap.

‘… lost.’

Looking at his sword shattered into pieces, Nanwoohyun sensed his defeat.

If I had simply lost my weapon, I would not have given up the fight, but it was difficult to continue fighting with both my hands frozen.

‘I’m sorry, Father.’

I guess this is where I ended up.

Nanwoohyun let out a sigh of laughter at his own helplessness.

Thud- thud-.

Seol Yu-hyeon slowly approached as if trying to finish things off.

At that moment, a man rushed towards Seol Yu-hyeon and swung his sword.

Nanwoohyun couldn’t help but widen his eyes at the sight.

“Little Leader! Run away!”

It was a shock.

Although there was already a lot of blood flowing out from various places, Gyeongcheon was desperately rushing towards Seol Yuhyeon as if trying to save Nanwoohyeon somehow.

However, there was no way that Gyeongcheon could deal with an enemy that even Nanwoohyun could not deal with.

In the end, Gyeongcheon allowed his vital point to be cut off, and he fell to the floor helplessly as his neck was cut off.

“A subordinate?”

“……!”

“We’re all going to die anyway. You’re needlessly inviting death first.”

Seol Yu-hyeon muttered with a cold expression and tone of voice.

Bam-.

Looking at that sight, Nanwoohyun couldn’t help but recall the past events.

As if Gyeongcheon’s death overlapped with his father’s, Nanwoohyun burst out in anger and rushed at Seolyuhyun.

“Eww-!”

A sword swing accompanied by a scream.

However, even if I swung the sword with only the bottom left, I wouldn’t be able to properly attack Seol Yu-hyeon.

As Seol Yu-hyeon lightly counterattacked while avoiding the attack, Nan Woo-hyeon even dropped the broken sword from his hand.

“Ugh…….”

The statue was causing a tremendous shock to his hands.

Still, Nanwoohyun glared at Seolyuhyun with sharp eyes as if he was determined to kill the enemy somehow.

“Your orders are to be captured alive.”

“…Kill him!”

“You’re going to die anyway. So just hold on tight.”

As he said that, Seol Yu-Hyeon raised his sword.

“I guess one arm would be okay to keep it quiet.”

“…….”

“Don’t worry. The cut will freeze as soon as you cut it, so you won’t bleed to death.”

The tone of voice was as cold as the cold air flowing from the sword.

But at that moment, Seol Yu-Hyeon felt a murderous intent from somewhere and hurriedly swung his sword in that direction.

bang-!

At that moment, someone swung a sword at Seol Yu-hyeon.

Seol Yu-Hyeon was able to block the attack because he changed the direction of the sword in an instant, but the aftereffects of the explosion caused him to be pushed back a long way from where he was just now.

“……!”

A sharp gaze due to the sudden attack.

Seol Yu-hyeon’s eyes widened slightly as she realized who had just attacked her.

“you are…….”

“We know each other, right?”

“…….”

“Where is your master and are you alone?”

Cheon Myeong-myeong asked calmly, carrying the Yeomma-do on his shoulder.
