Episode 170. Intrusion (3)

Seol Yu-hyeon’s eyes, which had slightly grown larger, soon returned to their original size.

“…That guy from back then.”

“…….”

“You’ve bothered me not once, but twice. Are you doing this on purpose?”

Once during the showdown with Nancheon, and now again.

Seol Yu-hyeon looked extremely displeased after being interrupted twice in the fight by Cheon Myeong-myeong.

“That’s what I have to say.”

“……?”

“It’s you, not me, who always interferes.”

“What is that…….”

“I’m sorry, but I have some unfinished business with this person. So, I would like you to either wait there quietly until I finish my business or just get out of here.”

When Cheon Myeong-myeong said that, Seol Yu-hyeon was momentarily speechless in shock.

But soon, Seol Yu-Hyeon’s expression became sharp and he raised his sword.

“You’re still a rude guy.”

“…….”

“This time, there is no one who can stop the fight. So I will kill you right here and now.”

A thick cold aura flowed out from Seol Yu-Hyeon’s sword, so clearly visible even from a distance.

Of course, Seol Yu-hyeon also doesn’t seem to have any intention of just backing down.

At that time, Nan Woo-hyeon spoke to Cheon Myeong-myeong as if he was curious.

“…Are you going to save me?”

If Cheon Myeong-myeong hadn’t intervened just now, he would have lost an arm.

He clearly thought that Cheon Myeong-myeong was sent by the Magic Cult… … Nan Woo-hyeon couldn’t understand why he was not only saving him, but also becoming hostile towards Seol Yu-hyeon.

“Well, there are complicated circumstances here too.”

“…Complicated circumstances?”

“I can’t stand to see you fall over there.”

“…….”

Although he didn’t know the exact details, Nanwoohyun was able to tell that the White Crowd and Cheonmyeongmyeong were separate forces.

It is also an image of them being hostile to each other.

When Nan Woo-hyun realized that what both sides wanted was him, an ingenious plan came to mind.

“…Kill that guy.”

“……?”

“I’ll give you whatever you want, as long as you kill me.”

The thought of running away from this place had already been given up.

Even though Cheon Myeong-myeong saved him, it is clear that he is also an enemy.

However, since Seol Yu-hyeon was the enemy who killed Gyeong-cheon, Nan-woo-hyeon at least wanted to avenge his subordinate before he died.

“How shameless. You tried to kill me twice and now you’re asking me for something like that?”

“I know it’s shameless. But I hope you understand that I had no choice but to do so.”

“So are you saying that you would give me my neck if I asked for it?”

“If you want.”

“…good night.”

Anyway, Seol Yu-hyeon was someone who had to be killed here and now.

Cheon Myeong-myeong had no particular reason to refuse, so he answered in a low voice toward Nan Woo-hyeon.

Pot-.

At that moment, Seol Yu-hyeon started to move.

Cheon Myeong-myeong also followed suit, and soon at some point the two clashed and swung their weapons at each other.

Chaechaechaeng-!

In the empty space, countless sums intersected in an instant.

‘…Why doesn’t it explode?’

While watching the two people fight from afar, Nanwoohyun had such a question in his mind.

Nan Woo-hyeon also knew from previous fights that Cheon Myeong-myeong’s specialty was detonation.

Clearly, he had used a surprise attack just a moment ago… … . Right now, he was only exchanging attacks with Seol Yu-hyeon, and was not using a surprise attack.

‘No… … . It can’t be used.’

Soon Nanwoohyun realized that fact.

I knew because I had received the blow from Cheonmyeongmyeong head-on.

This magic technique may look very rough and crude on the outside, but it is actually more delicate than any other magic technique.

Simply swinging the sword did not create a powerful attack, and if you could figure out that part, you could make it so that the opponent could not intentionally use the attack.

‘Did you figure that out at first glance?’

Seol Yu-hyeon received Cheon Myeong-myeong’s attack only once.

Of course, it is possible that the two of them had had more confrontations before that without their knowledge.

But if he really figured out that spell the first time… …. Does that mean that his defeat against Seol Yu-Hyeon wasn’t due to his carelessness?

I used to think that Cheon Myeong-myeong could beat Seol Yu-hyeon, but now I’m somewhat less sure about that idea.

bang-!

At that moment, a loud noise was heard for the first time in a long time.

Of course, you won’t be able to completely understand that spell in just one try.

As he watched Seol Yu-hyeon flying away after being hit by a bullet, Nan Woo-hyeon once again predicted Cheon Myeong-myeong’s victory, but his expression hardened as he soon realized that he had seen that situation before somewhere.

“be careful!”

Seol Yu-hyeon’s fear was not the sword swing.

Of course, the sword strike was fierce, but the greatest weapon was the cold sword energy surrounding the sword body.

That cold air that even freezes the opponent’s spirit.

Nan Woo-hyeon belatedly warned Cheon Myeong-myeong, but it was already too late.

‘It’s late.’

Seol Yu-hyeon smiled victoriously inwardly as she listened to Nan Woo-hyeon’s voice.

The Taoist temple of Yeomma Island was already frozen in many places.

In that state, you won’t be able to emit proper pottery.

Seol Yu-hyeon, sensing his victory, brought out his technique just as he had when he had defeated Nan Woo-hyeon.

Whoosh-.

White Tiger Maengjin (白虎猛進).

The attack just now was not a mistake, but a deliberate one.

As soon as the shock caused them to distance themselves, Seol Yu-hyeon took out his sword as if he had been waiting for it.

Kwaang-!

As I swung my sword, a fierce blizzard blew in.

And a white tiger runs out from the center of the blizzard, letting out a mighty roar.

As if it had become angry from its long hunger, the white tiger quickly charged towards Cheon Myeong-myeong while revealing its sharp teeth.

“……!”

Nan Woo-hyun’s expression hardened when he saw that sight.

As expected, that was the guy’s plan.

Why didn’t he warn Cheon Myeong-myeong in advance to be careful of Seol Yu-hyeon’s black magic? Nan Woo-hyeon belatedly regretted it inwardly.

‘No… … . Doesn’t that guy have more than one weapon!’

At that moment, Nanwoohyun seemed to see hope.

Clearly, when Cheon Myeong-myeong confronted him, he held a sword and a sword in both hands at the same time.

The only thing frozen by Seol Yu-Hyeon’s sword energy is the sword he is currently holding in his hand.

If I pulled out the sword on my waist, I might be able to deal with that sword attack.

“…….”

However, even after seeing Baekho rushing towards him, Cheon Myeong-myeong showed no intention of pulling out the sword on his waist.

You must have confirmed that the sword is frozen… … Why doesn’t he draw his sword?

Nanwoohyun looked at Cheon Myeongmyeong as if he couldn’t understand, but soon discovered something and his eyes widened in surprise.

Hwarurur-.

Before we knew it, Taoism was flowing out from the path of Cheonmyeongmyeong.

It was a pottery that burned fiercely like an active volcano.

The crimson aura instantly melted the frozen swordsman, and as if that wasn’t enough, it was also melting the cold air around it.

‘You were hiding that kind of power?’

Nanwoohyun was astonished at the sight of the flames burning on Yeomma Island.

Clearly, he didn’t show such skill when he fought himself… … Are you saying that he didn’t give it his all then?

Although he had never directly drawn a sword against Nanwoohyun, he knew one thing.

That fiery magic energy couldn’t be absorbed even by his own Wind King Demon Sword. If Cheon Myeong-Myeong had taken out that sword at that time, he would have probably died on the spot.

Hwarurur-.

The pottery made of the heat wave was still burning brightly, surrounding the swordsman of Yeomma Island.

At that moment, the white tiger came almost right in front of my nose.

Cheon Myeong-myeong ran towards Baekho without hesitation.

Kwang-!

Baekho opened his mouth wide and tried to bite Cheon Myeong-myeong’s neck.

Cheon Myeong-myeong swung the Yeomma Sword towards Baekho’s mouth, and just like when he broke Nan Woo-hyeon’s sword, Baekho bit the Yeomma Sword with its sharp teeth.

But at that moment, a fierce flame burst out from Baekho’s mouth.

A powerful explosion came out of the White Tiger’s mouth along with a fierce flame, and Cheon Myeong-Myeong swung his Yemmado and cut the White Tiger’s body in a straight line.

“……!”

As he cut from head to torso, the white tiger’s body was instantly engulfed in flames and disappeared.

It didn’t stop there, Cheon Myeong-myeong rushed towards Seol Yu-hyeon, and Seol Yu-hyeon hurriedly swung his sword and responded to the slaughter flying in front of his eyes.

Hwarurur-!

A tragic attack that was blocked right in front of the nose by Ganshin.

But Seol Yu-Hyeon could not withstand the powerful flames that burned even while holding swords together.

Seol Yu-hyeon was slowly pushed back by the heat that felt like his whole body was burning, and eventually the sword broke and Yeomma-do passed by, cutting off Seol Yu-hyeon’s neck.

Bam-.

Head falling on the floor.

Within moments, a flame-like energy rose from the severed section and engulfed the head in an instant.

Hwarurur-.

A head that is burning in the scorching heat.

As Cheon Myeong-myeong shook off the Tao, the scorching heat disappeared, and at that time, Seol Yu-hyeon’s head also turned into a handful of ash.

“her…….”

Nanwoohyun was staring at the sight, lost in thought.

What on earth did I just see?

Everything was amazing, but the place that caught Nanwoohyun’s attention the most was the crimson heat wave.

‘…It’s not cold.’

It wasn’t my imagination.

It felt hot in this area right now, as if the season had changed.

The reason for this is probably the crimson energy that resides in that Tao.

The energy that changes the seasons… … Nan Woo-hyun became curious about the identity of that crimson energy, and the identity of Cheon Myeong-myeong who wielded it.

Thud- thud-.

That was when.

After dealing with Seol Yu-hyeon, Cheon Myeong-myeong leisurely walked towards Nan Woo-hyeon.

Nanwoohyun looked startled as if he had come to his senses at the sight.

“I think you said something to me earlier. What did you say?”

“…….”

Be careful. Nanwoohyun remembered that he had said that to Cheon Myeongmyeong.

And at that time, he was able to realize that what he had said was completely useless to Cheon Myeong-myeong.

“…It’s nothing.”

In the end, Nanwoohyun answered as if he felt embarrassed.

Cheon Myeong-myeong didn’t ask him any more questions, as if he had no intention of digging into them.

“I killed that guy as you asked.”

“…….”

“So you’re saying I’ll listen to whatever I want?”

“…okay.”

Nanwoohyun belatedly remembered that he had made such a promise, having momentarily forgotten about the inaction that Cheon Myeongmyeong had shown.

Cheon Myeong-myeong asked if he could even give up his own neck.

Also, since Cheon Myeong-myeong seemed to be a member of the Magic Cult, Nan Woo-hyeon could roughly guess what they wanted.

“What you want is my neck, right?”

“…….”

“I don’t know the details, but… aren’t you hoping to get my head in order to gain credit?”

Nanwoohyun was willing to give up his neck.

Anyway, if Cheon Myeong-myeong hadn’t helped, he would have already been dead.

Although he was concerned that he could not keep his promise to his father, he could not help but be satisfied with the fact that he had avenged his subordinate.

“Here, take it.”

Nanwoohyun said that and knelt down.

The sight of him lowering his head so that he could be cut down with a single stroke of a thousand swords.

With his eyes closed, Nanwoohyun resolutely waited for death.

“I don’t need your neck.”

“……?”

“Until a moment ago, I was thinking of killing you. But now I’ve changed my mind.”

At those words, Nanwoohyun raised his head and looked at Cheon Myeongmyeong with a puzzled look.

If you don’t need your own neck, what on earth do you want?

Within, Cheon Myeong-myeong whispered into Nan Woo-hyeon’s ear so that no one around him could hear.

“Do you want to end your revenge?”

“……?”

“Then be my sword.”

It was a proposal that Nanwoohyun really did not expect.
