Moon-Shadow Sword Emperor

Episode 182:

The herbivorous method of Oxygen Purification, Double Strike, and One Power Blade rushed in, filling the entire area.

It was a martial art that had been shown before when dealing with Seo Ho-seon.

If Wolyeonggeom was a swordsmanship based on Kwae (快) and illusion (幻), Oksimjeongyang’s Gwiilgeombeop was a swordsmanship based on Yu (流) and illusion (幻).

‘There is no need to accept it.’

It was a brilliant attack, but to my eyes, the falsity and truth of herbivorous behavior were clearly revealed.

The new model, which glided along the ground, was swept away by a wave of illusion.

A smile of conversion appeared on Hyukseong Dojang’s face.

Wow!

The next moment, my fist exploded into Hyukseong’s face.

The sensation of bones breaking came through the back of my hand.

“Khaak!”

The old master took a step back and stared at me with disbelief.

Blood flowed from his sunken nose.

“What kind of evil trick are you using?”

“How can there be sorcery or anything like a simple punch?”

“I’m not saying that! “I clearly saw with my own two eyes that the energy sword penetrated the vital area!”

In any case, whether he was a direct descendant of the Hwangbo family or an elder of the Daemun faction, he was the same in that he would throw tantrums and claim that it was a witchcraft when a situation occurred that went beyond his understanding.

I smiled and stretched out my left hand.

Hyukseong Dojang, who witnessed the sphere of brain energy gathering in his palm, shed a sigh of relief.

“Didn’t you watch the martial arts competition? “You probably know that I manipulate brain energy freely.”

Forming a membrane of brain energy was not enough to protect the body from energy swords.

I lightly flicked my index finger, and the sphere of brain energy that was fired disappeared as if it were melting into thin air.

Master Hyukseong, who was very frightened and was pushing the new model, made a puzzled expression.

‘It doesn’t work either.’

I clicked my tongue and kicked the ground.

I tried to project the condensed brain energy like a memorization, but the results were not very good.

The brain energy that lost control was unable to maintain its spherical shape and scattered.

‘Well, if this had been possible in the first place, we wouldn’t have gone through so much trouble to close the distance in the fight with the vampire demon.’

After occupying the side of Hyukseong’s dojo, he parried the sword rising diagonally and hooked his leg, completely breaking his balance.

Quang!

A fist lands in Hyukseong’s face once again.

With a loud noise, the Hyukseong seal was thrown to the ground, his limbs trembling.

“this guy!”

“How dare you, Elder!”

Kunlun’s disciples who had left rushed forward again.

This time, instead of attacking them haphazardly, they spread out their formations and systematically applied pressure.

It was clear that he intended to wreak havoc on me by waging a wheel war.

Should it really be said to be a prestigious medical examination?

It was precise, efficient and powerful.

It has been studied and developed over a long period of time.

The problem was the connection between the warriors that made up the group.

‘Is it because the disciples of the first generation and the disciples of the second generation were mixed up and formed a camp?’

From individual skills to understanding of the team.

Because the skills of each warrior varied greatly, the formation method was not effective.

‘If the examination had been carried out properly, it would have been enough of a threat to me as well.’

There was no way with such clumsy operation.

The Plum Blossom Examination (梅花劍陣) conducted by the disciples of the Hwasan Sect to catch demons was not this sloppy.

Of course, in their case, they had large numbers and a clear command structure.

Kaang!

After dodging the sword that was aimed at his side, he quickly entered the gap between his opponents.

He turned his back to the upper body of the Taoist monk, who had a perplexed expression on his face, then stepped forward and immediately twisted his body.

Cheolsango (鐵山靠).

Whoops!

The man who flew out, coughing up a handful of blood, tangled with the Taoists behind him and rolled on the floor.

Other Taoist monks moved to reinforce the collapsed axis of the camp, but I was not foolish enough to just watch.

He pulled the sword from its scabbard and swung it sideways.

April, the twelfth herbivorous month.

The illusion of a sword fluttering like a dance put the brakes on the movements of the monks.

In that gap, I occupied the outskirts of Jin and unleashed my Wolyeonggeom attack again.

The 19th herbivorous month (播月).

Sword energy spread out in all directions and swept the area.

“Kaaak!”

“Aaaah!”

There were people who hurriedly swung their swords to block them, but there were also many who fell because they were unable to block them.

The Jin collapsed at a rapid rate.

I formed a circle and struck down the Taoists who made up the mobile group one after another.

Sigh! Buck!

Taoists falling like leaves in the autumn wind.

After about a minute, all the Taoist monks were lying on the ground and moaning.

Is it the pride of the prestigious faction or the strong bond between the executioners?

Not a single person appeared to be trying to escape from the dormitory.

After taking a look around, I picked up the sheath that I had placed on the floor.

Then, the machining began in earnest.

Jump! Jump! Jump! Jump!

The skin exposed through the torn uniform was soggy and blood splattered.

The screams of the monks echoed throughout the dormitory.

“It’s no use pretending to faint.”

“…….”

“Be careful not to bite your tongue.”

“Now wait!”

In particular, Hyeokseong was beaten with great care.

The plan was to make it so that he would have no choice but to be bedridden for at least two months.

Of course, I did my best to prevent him from dying.

No matter how much justification there is, if there are deaths, it will be difficult to clean up the situation.

“Phew…”

When I left the dormitory, wiping the blood off my sword sheath, the world was already in twilight.

I was so absorbed in the beating that I didn’t even realize that time was passing.

As the excitement subsided, hunger suddenly set in.

‘Now that I think about it, I haven’t even eaten yet.’

A sigh came out of my mouth.

Not even a day has passed since I went on a long-distance business trip.

‘by the way.’

I glanced behind me and muttered in my mind.

The sight of Taoists crawling on the ground and making groaning sounds came into view.

‘What should I do after this?’

* * *

“I’m sorry. Young small cooperative.”

A separate room within the Sacheon branch.

Young Jin-hwan looked at the young monk who suddenly burst into the room with a devastated expression.

It seemed like he was suddenly apologizing, and then he knelt down on the ground.

What on earth happened in the meantime to make that arrogant person show such a servile attitude?

‘I thought it was impossible. Did you really invade the lodgings where the Kunlun sect’s disciples were staying?’

The young man’s physical condition was in shambles.

The face was so swollen that its original appearance was unrecognizable, and the skin visible through the tattered uniform was covered in dried blood.

“I was wrong. Please forgive me.”

“Get up now.”

I was able to realize it again.

What kind of person is your boss?

What happens when you make him angry.

‘That’s absurd.’

At the same time, I felt moved.

He came forward for himself even at the risk of getting into trouble with the Kunlun faction.

Now I felt like I knew something about Yeon-Woon.

‘He is a hero who is merciless towards his enemies, but takes care of the people around him…’

I felt somewhat satisfied.

It was a scary boss, but it seemed like it would definitely be rewarding to serve him.

“School month seal.”

“yes.”

“I accept your apology.”

“Are you serious?”

“Looking at that, I don’t even feel like getting angry.”

“thank you! thank you!”

“However, apart from forgiving the wrongdoing, we must make a clear calculation.”

“……yes? “What do you mean by that?”

“As you can see, I broke my leg and was unable to work for a while. In addition to the salary that will be reduced, there are also medical expenses. “The dojo will have to pay for everything.”

“…….”

“I’m sure you won’t say you can’t give it to me.”

“Of course.”

Young Jin-hwan buried himself in the bed with a faint smile on his lips.

He then waved his wrist and gave a congratulatory command.

“You can just leave now. “It looks like Sohyeop’s physical condition is not that good. Shouldn’t he go and get treatment?”

“…….”

It was Young Jin-hwan who was fully enjoying the feeling of a fox with the might of a tiger on his back.

* * *

After punishing the Taoists of the Kunlun Sect, I immediately set out to clean up the situation.

Although their area of activity was lost to the Demonic Cult, the power and influence of the Kunlun Sect could not be ignored.

Even if it is rotten, isn’t it a huge martial arts force that dominates the Old Daemun faction?

In particular, Hyeokseong Dojang was a person with the status of an elder.

Since someone of that size was beaten to a pulp, the aftermath was in no way small.

There was a need to complete control before the situation escalated.

‘If the Kunlun faction decides to make an issue of this incident, in the worst case, it may have a detrimental effect on personnel evaluations.’

Although the justification was on this side, it was also a matter of respect for the Kunlun faction.

He would never willingly admit his mistakes.

There should never have been any conflict between the Sichuan branch and the Kunlun faction.

It is as clear as day which side the Murim Alliance, which was created for the benefit of the Nine Great Gates and the Five Great Families, will take.

“Dam Secretary.”

“yes. “Branch manager.”

“Send Jeon Seo-gu to the joint faction.”

“All right. “Can I write something and send it to you?”

“I would like to provide five hundred gold coins to support the Kunlun faction who lost their home. Oh, please write there that you wish Jang Mun-in a speedy recovery and that you will also send him a piece of Somyeongdan (小明丹). “That would be a sufficient sign of sincerity.”

Damwoon let out a laugh.

Although five hundred gold coins was a large amount of money, it was not a huge amount from the perspective of a large sect like the Kunlun sect.

However, this is a story from when the Kunlun faction reigned as the rulers of Cheonghae.

Currently, the disciples of the Kunlun sect had lost their home and were living on the backs of the communal sect.

It would not be easy for them, who were desperate for funds for their activities, to push away the hand I had extended.

There’s one more thing.

[I heard that Jang Mun-in was seriously injured.]

[That’s right. So, we have to go quickly.]

[Nothing will really change just because the elder goes.] I guess

the elders currently leading Kunlun’s disciples would not have a very good relationship with Hyukseong Dojang.

Considering the impatient attitude shown by Hyukseong Dojang in the past, it was almost certain.

‘There is no way the elders of Kunlun would not know about Hyukseong Dojang’s ambition.’

All of the Kunlun Taoists currently staying at the Sacheon branch belonged to the faction of Hyukseong Dojang.

Will other elders sympathize with their position and try to oppose me?

Even the justification is here?

‘That can’t be possible.’

If this side were appropriately polite and proposed reconciliation, there was a high possibility that they would accept it without a second thought.

I feel sorry for Hyukseong Dojang, who dreams of revenge, but I intended to eliminate any seeds of discord in advance.

We preemptively exclude agenda items that could be problematic and, as a bonus, lower the status of Hyukseong Dojang.

This is a strategy that kills two birds with one stone.
