The Return of the Namgoong Clan’s Granddaughter - Chapter 107

Episode 107

Seolhwa looked at Seobwugwang, who appeared from somewhere and launched the Hwangryongdaeju in one strike.

Seop Mu-gwang, who had been grumbling, finally turned to look at Seol-hwa as her gaze seemed to pierce through him.

Seopmu-gwang’s eyes scanned Seolhwa up and down.

“Where are you hurt?”

“I’m fine. I’m better than…”

Seolhwa looked at the spot where Yugang had been laid down. Following her gaze, Seopmu-gwang saw the child who had collapsed and frowned.

“You need to get treatment.”

“It was a good thing I brought the pharmacist along just in case.”

Seolhwa felt relieved when she heard that Choryun had come with her. It was a feeling of relief.

“… Did your grandfather go to your father’s house?”

“okay.”

At that short answer, Seolhwa’s heart quickly calmed down. Before she knew it, she let out a low sigh.

Seopmu-kwang ruffled Seol-hwa’s hair.

“Just wait a moment. I’ll take care of that rotten guy first.”

He turned his steps towards the Hwangryongdaeju again.

Hwangryongdaeju barely managed to pull himself together from his dizzy state and got up.

‘what…?’

I didn’t even feel any movement.

I was shocked and realized at the same time that I had been attacked.

The current situation is that he has eaten the Explosion Ring and is at the peak of his power.

The fact that he didn’t even sense a presence meant that the one who surprised him was a much stronger master.

“I knew he was a yellow bastard, but I didn’t know he was this much of a bastard.”

Hwangryongdaeju, who was getting up with his head still pounding, flinched and froze at the sound of a familiar voice.

He slowly raised his head and looked at the person standing in front of him, and his face turned pale.

“Rain, wind and sword…?”

“What did you say to that little thing?”

What? Living covered in dirty blood? Why did you come back?

“Even if you cut out your tongue and throw it to pigs, they won’t eat it.”

“Oh, I misunderstood. The Wind Sword.”

“misunderstanding…?”

Misunderstanding?

The fierce aura of the Submuguang exploded with even more ferocity. The aura that poured out was so fierce that the hems of his clothes were fluttering.

Submu-gwang raised his sword.

At that moment, I had the illusion that a bolt of lightning was striking down from the dark night sky.

Kwarrung!

Like thunder that belatedly shook the heavens and earth, Submu-gwang’s sword struck down towards the Yellow Dragon.

But what fell with a loud noise was the bare ground.

“Huh. Look at this…?”

Seop Mu-gwang’s eyes flashed as he looked back at the Hwangryongdaeju who had avoided his sword.

“What are you doing? This isn’t the kind of movement a punk like you would show.”

“Now, just wait a minute, Wind Sword! I’ll explain everything! So just a moment…!”

“It’s not worth listening to.”

The new form of the Submu Light disappeared in an instant. Soon, lightning struck one after another.

Boom! Kwaang! Boom!

It was a truly tremendous force that shook the heavens and the earth.

It was a strength of a different level from the unstable energy of the Hwangryongdaeju that was forcibly raised.

“Whew!”

Hwangryongdaeju was unable to even think of fighting back and just frantically dodged the attacks.

“Okay, wait a minute…!”

But Submu-gwang didn’t give him a chance to speak.

His attacks struck without warning, like lightning striking without specifying a location.

I was barely able to avoid it thanks to the explosion ring, but the gap was too big to deal with.

‘Oh my god…! Oh my god!!’

Hwangryongdaeju was embarrassed.

At this rate, I wouldn’t be able to fight back, let alone run away. My heart was pounding, and I could feel that the effects of the Explosive Ring were running out.

‘When the effect of the explosion ring ends…’

It is obvious that you will be caught without even being able to do anything.

‘If that happens….’

You will be questioned about your relationship with Hwaoru and why you betrayed Namgung.

and….

‘…Fuck.’

“This little rat! Is the only thing that the Namgung’s master can do with that kind of energy just Nareotagon?”

Once again, a squeaking sound was heard from the mouth of Hwangryongdaeju, who had barely managed to avoid the attack of Seopmuwang.

Shhhhhhhhh

The moment the sword of Submu-gwang was about to rush towards him, Seolhwa rushed in to block the sword aimed at Hwangryongdaeju.

“!”

Seop Mu-gwang, who saw Seol-hwa suddenly intervene, turned his sword and cut down the tree behind Hwangryongdaeju.

Seop Mu-gwang put his sword away as he watched the thick tree split in two and fall.

I knew the fighting was over.

“… .”

Seolhwa grabbed Hwangryongdaeju by the collar.

The body of the Yellow Dragon limply sagged in her hands.

‘…no.’

He was already dead, bleeding from his eyes, nose, and mouth, and not even able to close his eyes.

By the time he realized that the Yellow Dragon was trying to poison him, it was already too late.

I jumped in to try to save him, but there was no time to stop him.

“…”

My clenched fists tightened. My heart started pounding and my breathing became rapid.

‘With my own hands… .’

I should have killed him with my own hands.

After torturing him until he vomited blood, cutting off his limbs, and making him vomit up all the information he knew.

I had to let him die slowly.

Until I beg to kill you, in agony…!

“Just wait.”

“… .”

“I told you not to let your anger get the better of you.”

At the sound of Submu-gwang’s voice, the strength left Seol-hwa’s hand that was holding her by the collar.

Seolhwa’s eyes briefly wavered.

‘…anger?’

Am I angry?

Just when I heard Hwangryongdaeju talking about his father and Yu Kang’s death, my heart ached and my blood flowed backwards.

I’ve killed countless people in my past lives, but I’ve never thought about killing anyone.

But this time, I wanted to kill him. No matter what, somehow.

‘anger….’

I see

This is such a dirty feeling, anger.

Seopmu-kwang touched Seolhwa’s shoulder. Seolhwa’s murderous intent slowly subsided.

Seolhwa threw away the already dead Hwangryongdaeju with a cold expression.

“Little one.”

“I committed suicide.”

“okay.”

I knew that the Hwangryongdaeju had died.

I heard his last breath as he twisted his sword.

“This is terrible.”

A poison that causes instant death as soon as you chew it.

It’s like a poison that was created solely for the purpose of minimizing pain and causing death.

A poison that causes death in an instant, preventing anyone from being saved in a short time.

‘I thought you would make a last-ditch effort.’

He committed suicide before the battle was even over.

I couldn’t find out why he betrayed Namgung or who he was connected to.

Because he died before I could even question him.

Tch.

“This guy, the aerodynamics he showed before he died were strange. Do you know that?”

“It’s because I took a pill that stimulates the flow of energy and blood.”

“A pill that stimulates the flow of qi and blood?”

“It’s a potion that temporarily makes you stronger. However, as a side effect, it spreads throughout your body once the effect wears off. It’s made in Hwaoru.”

“Huh. What on earth is that Hwaoru?”

“Anything related to blood is done here.”

Seopmu-kwang frowned.

Long ago, we sent the Wind Sword Team to investigate Hwaoru, but they only sent back one report each week.

[No information found. Appears to be normal base running.]

At this point, it seemed like the agents wanted to come back, so I was thinking about giving the order to return.

‘What on earth is true?’

But considering the unusual atmosphere just a little while ago and the current situation, the kid’s words don’t seem like lies.

‘I guess I’ll have to dig deeper.’

Unfortunately, the withdrawal order was canceled.

It was then that I felt a tremendous wave of energy from far away.

Seopmu-gwang and Seolhwa looked at it at the same time.

“Let’s go back and find the two children. That one needs treatment quickly, too, so we have to hurry.”

“yes.”

Seopmu-gwang carried Yu-gang around, and the two headed in the direction that Hwarin and So-yak had escaped to.

Meanwhile, the huge energy echoed through the forest again and again.

* * *

Blame, blame.

When Seolhwa and Seopmu-gwang joined Cheongun’s party, Cheongun’s party was far away from the place where the fighting was taking place.

It seemed like there had been a battle here as well, as all the trees and grass in the area had been swept away, leaving a huge, desolate space.

Under the moonlight, the Hwangryongdae members were busy cleaning up the traces of the fierce battle.

The surroundings were chaotic with the injured Hwangryong members, the corpses of the dead, and the late-arriving Bifunggeom members and Black Dragon members.

Seolhwa looked around while lowering Soyak and Hwarin to the ground.

‘where….’

“Snow flower…!”

“!”

Looking back, I saw Namgung Cheong-un leaning against a broken tree stump and receiving treatment from the herbalist.

“… .”

Tadah.

Seolhwa ran straight to him and checked his condition.

When Choryun found Seolhwa, she greeted him happily, saying, “Oh my.” However, Seolhwa’s mind was completely focused on Cheongwoon.

The arm, which was supported by a splint made of broken wood, appeared to be broken, and the whole body was covered in wounds.

More serious than that were the internal injuries.

The energy, which had been unstable from the beginning, was now so disordered that it needed to be restored immediately.

A soft hand came and cupped Seolhwa’s cheek.

“It’s okay, Dad.”

“…What about the legs?”

“I’m fine. I’m just resting for a moment because I feel weak. I’m glad you seem okay too.”

“… .”

My lips were trembling.

I was sure it was okay, but I couldn’t understand why my heart was pounding.

“Haha, it’s nice to see that you and your daughter are getting along well. Don’t worry too much, miss. I’m here for you, right?”

“Yeah. That’s okay.”

Cheongun smiled brightly.

My throat still felt choked up by that clear and innocent smile.

“If it’s not urgent, let’s look at this first.”

At a convenient time, Submu-gwang approached from behind. He carefully put Yu-gang down.

“Oh my, what happened to this child…?”

Cho-ryeon hurriedly checked Yu-gang’s condition.

Cheongun also had a surprised and worried look.

“What happened?”

“The Yellow Dragon Lord has betrayed you.”

“yes?”

“yes?”

Everyone nearby, including Cheongun and Choryun, who heard those words were shocked and looked back at Seopmuwang.
