Episode 223. Secret Call (4)

Cheon Myeong-Myeong has faced quite a few enemies so far.

Among them, there were some who could definitely be called experts, but Cheon Myeong-Myeong could say only one thing for sure at this moment.

‘… They are on a different level from the enemies I’ve faced so far.’

Even though he was just pointing his sword, the sense of intimidation that flowed out was tremendous.

The opponent currently in front of him is someone who can be said to be the leader of the Magic Cult.

Perhaps the most powerful figure in the Magical Cult was pointing his sword at him, so the psychological pressure from that alone was no joke.

“…….”

Of course, it wasn’t that he felt pressured just because he was a cult leader.

The momentum that was secretly flowing out as if it were unmanned seemed to awaken all of Cheon Myeong-myeong’s senses.

Don’t fight the author now. Your instincts were warning you so.

“Why is that?”

“…….”

“Am I afraid?”

I’m scared. In fact, I couldn’t deny those words.

In terms of skill, Cheon Si-rang was an incredibly strong person, but to Cheon Myeong-myeong, Cheon Si-rang was also the most feared person in another sense.

It could be said that it is a fear that Cheon Si-rang can feel because he is a father.

If it had been the Mandate of Heaven in the past, it would have been impossible to even stand properly due to the fear.

Sreung-.

At that moment, Cheon Myeong-myeong also pulled out his sword.

The brisk sound of the sword being pulled out from its scabbard proved that there was not a shred of hesitation in his heart.

“Yes, the leader is a fearful person to me.”

“…….”

“But that doesn’t mean you can run away forever.”

The corners of Cheon Si-rang’s mouth rose slightly at that answer.

But then he came back with a blank expression and nodded as if to call me over.

“Come at me.”

“May I dare to swing my sword at the cult leader?”

“If you fight moderately, you will die by my hand.”

“Then there’s nothing I can do. I’ll be rude for a moment.”

With those words, Cheon Myeong-myeong’s new form moved quickly.

Thousand-won magic sword. Spiral spear.

Knowing full well that most moves would not work on Cheon Si-rang, Cheon Myeong-myeong tried to take the initiative with a strong sword from the first move.

Whoosh-.

A sword strike with a powerful thrust.

Cheon Myeong-myeong took out his sword and aimed for Cheon Si-rang’s heart.

Bang-!

A sharp metallic sound rang out, as if shattering the peace of the peach blossom village.

At that moment, all the liquor bottles on the table broke at once, and the glasses and plates on the tray were unable to withstand the impact and were blown away.

But there is one person who stands tall and upright like a heavy old tree.

Cheon Si-rang was blocking the spiral spear swung by Cheon Myeong-myeong with his sword.

“…….”

Cheon Myeong-myeong had already anticipated that Cheon Si-rang would block his sword strike.

If the leader of the Magic Cult had fallen to this extent, I would have doubted the fact.

However, Cheon Myeong-myeong couldn’t help but feel a little shaken by the fact that he had blocked his sword strike without moving an inch.

“Attacking from the front? How impudent.”

“…….”

“That’s all there is to it.”

At first glance, it sounded like a provocation, but it was not a provocation at all.

I was just expressing my honest opinion.

That meant that Cheonmyeongmyeong’s sword strike was light to Cheon Sirang, and that he did not feel threatened at all.

Whoosh-.

Cheon Myeong-Myeong immediately went to another location and swung his sword.

Despite the successive attacks, Cheon Si-rang was able to block all of the sword strikes with minimal movement, and even when he swung his sword in a tricky direction, he was able to block that with ease.

‘… It’s difficult.’

Of course, Cheon Myeong-myeong was currently unable to use his left arm.

But even taking that into account, he wasn’t sure if he could find an opening in Cheon Si-rang.

Those eyes that seem to see through every one of his movements.

That was the first time that Cheon Si-rang counterattacked.

visor-!

Cheon Myeong-myeong’s body was pushed away with a sharp metallic sound.

Cheon Myeong-myeong was driven out of the pavilion as if it were his own territory, and Cheon Myeong-myeong raised his sword in preparation for the next attack.

“……?”

But there was no subsequent attack.

Cheon Myeong-myeong was puzzled by the fact that Cheon Si-rang was still on the pavilion, not taking advantage of the gap that he had just shown.

“How petty.”

“…….”

“Do you know? I have never left this place before.”

Hearing those words, Cheon Myeong-myeong’s eyes widened slightly.

The pavilion where Cheon Si-rang is standing now is not that wide.

Even though the duel had already begun and they had clashed swords several times, they still hadn’t been able to get Cheon Shirang down from that narrow space… … That meant that Cheon Shirang had kept his movements to a minimum.

It means only one thing.

His sword strikes were not threatening enough to be blocked even in that narrow space. That was exactly what Cheon Sirang had just said.

“Was I expecting too much?”

“…….”

“Then let’s do this. If you can make me come down from the pavilion, I will consider it your victory.”

It was a truly humiliating statement.

It was normal for Cheon Myeong-myeong to feel angry when he saw Cheon Si-rang speaking like that as if he was doing a favor, but surprisingly, he did not feel angry.

‘Somehow I’ll get him down from there.’

My head was just filled with those thoughts.

Because I felt that there was a significant gap between my current self and Cheon Si-rang.

It may have been arrogance from the beginning to try to defeat Cheon Si-rang without even being able to use his left arm.

Swish-.

But now, Cheon Myeong Myeong had only one purpose.

As I said, I made Cheon Si-rang come down from the pavilion.

By setting that goal, distracting thoughts disappeared and I was able to focus on just one thing.

“Phew-.”

At that moment, Cheon Myeong-myeong took a deep breath.

After taking a deep breath, Cheon Si-rang also realized that the gaze directed at him had changed from before.

“Then I will do that.”

At that moment, an unknown wind blew inside the Dowonhyang.

The trees swayed violently in the strong wind that could be felt on the skin, and the flowers that were blooming there also fell like corn.

It was as if dark clouds had descended upon the peaceful paradise.

The warm atmosphere where flowers used to bloom was no longer felt, and now an ominous feeling of something about to happen was flowing through the interior of Dowonhyang.

“…….”

The wind that changed the atmosphere of Dowonhyang in an instant. Its epicenter was none other than Cheonmyeongmyeong’s sword.

Cheon Si-rang stared at the sword with sharp eyes, then realized something and his eyes widened.

“no way…….”

The leisurely look from earlier could no longer be seen on Cheon Si-rang’s face.

The blue blade that has been imbued with the Sword of Thousand Names.

Looking at the sword that was blowing an ominous wind, Cheon Si-rang also felt a sense of crisis unlike before.

Swish-.

At that moment, Cheon Myeong-myeong slowly raised his sword.

Accordingly, the wind changed direction, and now all the winds in the surrounding area were blowing in one direction.

‘The air current has changed.’

Even just creating wind was something he could do himself.

If you apply a corresponding amount of shock, wind will naturally arise.

But now Cheon Myeong Myeong was not moving the wind in such a simple way.

As if he was controlling the winds of the Peach Blossom Spring at will, the winds around him were all gathering towards the sword.

Suuung-.

It was as if the sword was absorbing the wind.

Where on earth do all those gathered winds disappear to?

It didn’t scatter around again.

At that moment, Cheon Si-rang seemed to realize something, and his expression changed and his spirits rose.

Stop-.

At that moment, the silence that came upon the peach blossom village came to an end.

The wind that had been blowing in one direction until then had stopped as if it had never been there before.

But Cheon Si-rang knew that it was the calm before the storm.

“You might want to avoid it.”

“……!”

With those words, Cheon Myeong-myeong brought down his sword.

* * *

The third gate leading into Peach Blossom Land. The guard guarding it had been unable to control the corners of his lips rising upwards since a while ago.

The reason was because of what Cheon Si-rang said to the security guard earlier.

“That’s great.”

“Oh, it’s an honor!”

“I can rest in peace knowing that you are the guards protecting the Peach Blossom Land.”

That was the highest compliment a guard at Dowonhyang could hear.

The guard couldn’t contain his overwhelming joy at the thought of Cheon Si-rang, who had remained silent every time he passed by, saying something like that to him.

“I will give you compensation later.”

By the way, Cheon Si-rang even said that.

Given the level of praise, the reward will by no means be light.

Just imagining what the reward might be made the guard’s lips quiver.

bang-!

At that moment, an unidentifiable loud noise was heard from somewhere.

The guard, who had been dreaming a happy dream, was startled awake by the sound and looked at the place where the sound came from.

“……?”

The sound was heard from behind.

That is, because the sound seemed to come from beyond the door he was guarding, he could immediately guess that something had happened in the Taoist temple.

“That sound just now… doesn’t it sound like it came from the Peach Blossom Land?”

“…I think so?”

“What should I do?”

The other guard asked, looking at each other.

It would have been right to look inside since it seemed like something had happened inside, but the problem was that the only person allowed to enter Dowonhyang was Cheon Sirang.

Even though he was guarding the entrance, he had no right to enter the Peach Blossom Land, so the guard looked like he was contemplating what to do about the situation.

“Wait a minute… Could this also be the leader’s test?”

“……?”

“Maybe they’re testing us on how we’d handle an emergency situation!”

Just as he had sneaked out and tested them just now, the guards thought that this time Cheon Si-rang was testing them too.

At the guard’s words, another guard immediately chimed in with an excited expression.

“Yes! That’s definitely it!”

“Let’s go inside quickly. The leader might praise us again this time!”

“Then the reward will be greater, right?”

“of course.”

There was no longer any hesitation on either person’s faces.

With the desire to somehow win a bigger reward, the two opened the door at the same time and went inside, and soon arrived at the door leading to the Peach Blossom Land.

Bam-!

The guards opened the door without hesitation even when they got there.

“Reverend! Are you safe……”

At that moment, the two people swallowed their words with surprised eyes.

A look of bewilderment appeared in the two people’s eyes, as if they had seen something they should not have seen.

‘What happened?’

The two had only heard stories about it, but this was their first time actually seeing the scenery.

The magnificent view of the peach blossoms that I had heard about was said to be so beautiful that it would make you stand still and lose yourself in it as soon as you passed the entrance… … No matter how I looked at this sight, it was a completely different atmosphere from what I had heard about.

“……!”

The trees were torn apart and the pavilion was damaged, as if a typhoon had hit.

The two were momentarily speechless at the atmosphere that was completely different from the magnificent scenery of Peach Blossom Spring that they had only heard of.
