Episode 19: Those who call themselves political factions (1)
After the sword, no one could enter anymore.
The martial arts people who were unable to observe her gold powder washing ceremony could not hide their disappointnt.
“Why are there all these cases?”
“Since when did the Murim League beco so reckless?”
“What a dog…”
Several of the angry martial artists closed their mouths at the sa ti. This was because Wang Hyul unleashed his deadly energy.
He was in a very upset state because of the humiliation he suffered at the hands of the swordsman.
“Soone, please open your mouth one more ti. “I will prevent you from opening your mouth again, not in the na of the Murim Alliance, but in the na of Wang Hyul.”
No one raised their voice anymore.
There was a lot of commotion everywhere, and all there was was whispering in dissatisfied voices.
Yu Jin-san, who was watching from afar, couldn’t help but click his tongue.
“This guy who claims to be a political faction is full of arrogance and ambition. “Since when on earth did Kang-ho change like this?”
Hyunhee had no way of knowing that. This is because she was also a disciple of the Shaman faction and did not have much experience.
“Was it different before?”
“At least in the era in which I was active, the world of power was full of convention.”
“I can’t imagine that ti because it was before I was even born. “But what now?”
Jinsan Yu stared at the direction where Geomhu disappeared and turned his back without any hesitation.
“Let’s go back.”
It was impossible to break through the Murim Alliance to watch the retirent ceremony.
Hyunhee seed to understand as well and walked side by side without saying a word.
“Still, I had fun thanks to my grandfather. “Thank you for coming with us.”
Jinsan Yu nodded once and looked at her granddaughter who was sleeping soundly in her arms.
“It looks like our Seol likes you too. “I saw you sleeping without even knowing that the world was going on.”
“Iknow, right. “I fell asleep quickly.”
“You must be tired because your stomach is full and the weather is cool.”
Yu Jin-san and Hyeon-hee, who had been talking for a long ti, were already moving away from the martial arts people.
But not long after, their steps stopped at the sa ti. Suddenly, a loud roar was heard from behind.
Kwaaaaang-!!!
It wasn’t a one-ti thing. The continuous noise was like a mountain collapsing and thunder rumbling.
Kwaang-! Kwakwakwang-!!
The gathered warriors were very embarrassed and muttered.
“What is it?”
“What the hell is going on?”
The epicenter of the binge drinking was the place where Geomhu’s gold powder washing ceremony was being held.
It was assud that there would be sect elders and unidentified warriors there.
Hyunhee’s eyes shined with a curious expression.
“I think a fight broke out. Who would challenge Geomhu?”
Jin-san Yu pricked his ears and focused on the noise.
I can’t believe the aftermath of the fight reaches so far away. I couldn’t help but be surprised.
“The clashing tones are not uniform. “It doesn’t seem like a fair duel.”
“Are you saying that the martial arts elders are laying siege to Geomhu?”
“Isn’t it impossible to say for sure? “Gangho is a world that cannot be understood with the original mind.”
“Oh, Grandpa too. That can’t be possible…”
Hyunhee stopped speaking and opened her mouth wide. Because I witnessed an incredible sight.
The street corner where Geomhu disappeared a little while ago. From there, a ray of light was approaching at frightening speed.
It imdiately threw away the warriors of the Murim Alliance who had blocked the entrance.
Kwaaang-!
Each one of them was a top-notch Murim Alliance expert, but they were unable to even defend themselves and were thrown away in all directions.
“Ugh!”
“Oops!”
The beam of light that escaped through the gap flew up like a phoenix.
The martial arts people who were watching this shuddered at the sa ti.
“…After the sword?”
Geomhu’s light attack, which advanced more than ten steps in a single leap, was almost miraculous.
She then trampled on the shoulders of the warriors and began to run.
Everyone could not keep their mouths shut at the feather-like movent.
In the blink of an eye, Geomhu was passing right in front of Yu Jin-san.
It was only a split second, but he could see it clearly. She squinted one eye while looking at the rumor. And his pale face.
That was all he saw. I could no longer follow the movent with my eyes.
“Why is Geomhu running away?”
“What happened?”
The Murim people’s doubts did not last long. This is because a storm of energy ca from the place where Geomhu appeared.
“Do Dozon?”
Dojon (刀尊) Jinmugang. He was the master of Cheonryongmun and was famous for using the best martial arts techniques in the martial arts world.
Although he was not a mber of the Murim Alliance, he held a grudge against his son because he was maid by Geomhu. Although his life was saved, his family’s legacy was cut off.
And Dozon was not the only person chasing Geomhu.
“It’s Dok-go-seong!”
As the best expert in Hubei Province, there was no one in Wulin who did not know him.
Prominent figures were rushing out behind him.
Each and every one of them was so great that they were ntioned as one of the top ten masters of Moorim.
The six senior masters started chasing Geomhu. And a one-eyed young nun was following behind them with her back.
“Could it be that the authors collaborated on Geomhu together?”
“How does this work?”
There was no ti to be surprised.
Not only Geomhu but also the senior leaders were already moving away to the point where they were out of sight.
The dense crowd rocked like waves as if they were determined not to miss their confrontation.
It was a spectacular sight to see more than 1,000 martial arts warriors performing a light attack at the sa ti. As if they didn’t want to miss out on the sights, they chased after them with their eyes lit up.
Hyunhee also quickly turned her head and looked at Yujinsan.
“Let’s follow along, Grandpa!”
Jinsan Yu imdiately refused, as if there was nothing to think about.
“I’m too old to run around watching fights.”
“But…”
“It’s already too late. “How are you going to chase after these people who are like lightning?”
Geomhu and the veteran warriors who were chasing her could no longer even find a shadow. The martial people who had lost their direction were just blindly chasing after them.
“phew. “It can’t be helped.”
“In Gangho, the more curious you are, the shorter your life will be. “You’re young, so you’ll always have a chance.”
Hyunhee answered in a weak voice with her shoulders drooping.
“Yes…”
Perhaps because all the martial people had left, the village was empty everywhere.
They stopped at the market, bought so clothes and daily necessities, and then imdiately left.
With all of our objectives completed, it was ti to return to the mountain.
* * *
The day was gradually getting darker.
After leaving Baekyang County, I was taking a shortcut across an unknown mountain.
Yu Jin-san did not want to spend ti sleeping on the mountain with his child, so he increased his speed.
“Hurry a little more. “Among the disciples of the Shaman sect, martial arts was the best, so why is Gyeonggong so unpleasant?”
“tooth. “Grandpa is fast.”
At a glance, Hyunhee’s steps seed very heavy. It would be a sha to just go back.
“I saw it earlier and it looked like Geomhu suffered internal injuries.”
“yes? “After the examination?”
As expected, when I brought up the topic of the post-mortem examination, her expression imdiately brightened.
Yu Jin-san knew right away that her idol was Geomhu.
“I was able to catch a glimpse of it earlier. “Your face was pale.”
“What should I do?… It won’t go wrong, right?”
Hyunhee’s face was full of worry. He seed genuinely worried about her.
“Being relaxed even when you have internal injuries ans you are confident. “There’s nothing to worry about.”
“thank god. “I hope you’re safe.”
“But why are you rooting for Geomhu? “If you co from a shaman faction, it is normal to support the Murim Alliance.”
“That’s…”
Just as Hyunhee was about to reply. Suddenly, Yu Jin-san stopped mid-air and raised one hand.
“Shh.”
His expression looked unusual.
Hyunhee also felt sothing strange and looked around.
“What happened?”
“Be quiet.”
When Yu Jin-san peeled off the cloth covering the staff, the Hwaryong Shinchang, an heirloom, was revealed.
Afterwards, he tied his sleeping granddaughter on his back with a wrapping cloth and slowly moved forward.
His movents were full of caution, like a wolf searching for prey.
And soon I was able to witness an amazing sight.
“Huh….”
“This is impossible. What’s this?”
The mountain landscape had been devastated.
Dozens of fallen trees. And the rock that was split in two showed a clean cut surface as if a sword had passed through it.
It was a sight that could not even be imagined as sothing that had happened artificially.
“I chose the mountain path to avoid the martial arts people, but I had no luck.”
“I guess there was a fight here.”
“I don’t feel good, so I’d better get out of here quickly.”
The two increased their light attack speed to the maximum. I was planning to get out of the mountain quickly.
However, wherever we went, we continued to see terrible scenes as if a gust of wind had swept over us.
It was when I moved half an angle like that.
“Ugh.”
It was soone’s moan.
Jin-san Yu and Hyeon-hee’s hearts sank at the sa ti. This is because I found a swordsman kneeling in front of about a dozen people.
Hyunhee recognized him and muttered in a trembling voice.
“Dok-go-seong…?”
He was barely able to support himself by using the hilt of his sword sunk into the ground. His whole body was shaking, as if he was about to stop breathing. At a glance, it seed that fighting was no longer possible.
And it wasn’t just him. Two more people were sitting around him, and they didn’t look any different from him.
One of them was soone Hyunhee knew well.
Geumgangjinin, the Taesang Elder of the Shaman faction. How could they have expected that a recluse adult would be here? Hyunhee turned her head to avoid eye contact.
However, it was impossible to avoid his keen eye, which had reached the level of a superhuman.
“Aren’t you… Hyunhee?”
Hyunhee was startled and flinched.
“yes?”
“…I was keeping an eye on you because you were the most outstanding among the disciples of this great university. “Co here and see.”
Hyunhee, whose identity was discovered, suddenly approached him little by little.
“….”
“The Geomhu is sitting over there… so put an end to it quickly. “It won’t be able to move, so all you have to do is go and stab it.”
The place where Geumgangjinin sent a signal with a glance.
Under the zelkova tree, Geomhu was sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed. Although it was very close, the presence was so subtle that I wouldn’t have noticed it if I hadn’t been conscious of it.
“Why are you killing Geomhu?”
“Don’t be fooled by appearances. “He is a wicked person who should not be alive, so quickly do as he is told.”
Obviously, Geomhu also seed defenseless. Apparently, in the final clash, both sides suffered severe internal injuries and ended up losing.
“….”
“hurry!”
It was a situation where I had to choose a side whether I wanted it or not. And their fate will be decided according to the results.
Hyeonhee, who was embarrassed, turned her head and looked at Yujinsan.
He held his back and shook his head horizontally once. Wasn’t it a Murim alliance that made shiver just thinking about it? There was absolutely no reason to side with them.
She exchanged a look with Jinsan Yu and nodded once. Then he looked at Geumgangjinin again.
“Elder.”
“…?”
“Why did you recognize ?”
