Episode 160
The masked person’s response was astute.
He threw his body backwards and at the same time threw out the iron ball and swung it sideways.
A thin film of energy was coated on the surface of the thread connecting the iron bead and the hand.
Sigh!
The trace of a thread passing over a bent head.
Some of the cut hair was flying in the air.
The destructive power of the iron ball was destructive, but the cutting power of the thread could not be ignored.
‘It’s not an ordinary thread. Is it Cheonjamsa?’
The masked man looked fine even after being swept away by the storm of energy.
Although he wasn’t completely unharmed, he didn’t suffer any serious injuries that would hinder his movement.
It seemed like he was protecting his body with self-defense weapons in that brief moment.
‘If you are a master of flower painting, are you one of the five masters of Yeongeumdae? He made up his mind and sent a powerful man.
I didn’t go out of my way to chase the masked man and bit him.
Although he managed to gain the upper hand in attack and defense, it would have been difficult if the distance between him and his party had increased further than this.
just as expected.
Masked men who had been ambushing various places jumped out and attacked the group.
Tang Seo-yeon and Yeo So-ok, who were very alert and wary of their surroundings, took out the memorization at the same time.
The arrows fired in different directions dug into the attackers’ shoulders and knees, respectively.
Teuong!
A heavy noise rang out.
Having heard the warning in advance, I immediately jumped to the side.
The arrow narrowly missed the side and flew towards the masked man, who was presumed to be the leader.
Was it because it was an unexpected blow?
The masked man was unable to avoid the arrow and swung his sword to strike it away.
The moment the strong energy covering the surface of the sword and the strong energy surrounding the arrowhead came into contact, an explosion occurred.
Quaaaang!
The new form of the masked person was pushed away, leaving long footprints on the ground.
‘That’s it. The primary objective has been achieved.’
I rolled up the corners of my mouth and rotated the new model around my left foot.
Then, he unfolded the Wolyeonggeom’s blade and struck down the poisonous needle aimed at Damun’s neck.
Fifth herbivory, half moon.
The sword’s trajectory, which soared in a gentle curve, fell towards the ground immediately after deflecting the poisonous needle.
The masked man, who had been crawling on all fours like an animal, was startled and rolled on the ground.
He quickly regained his stance and hit the ground hard with both hands.
The new form of the masked man rose into the air due to the recoil of the impact.
In an instant, my gaze and that of the masked person met in midair.
“Sigh!”
The masked person is aiming for my neck and chest, swinging both hands like the claws of an animal.
I narrowed my eyes and responded with a full-blown attack.
The sixth herbivorous food, Tougongkwon (透空拳).
Kwon Gyeok, who had a knack for striking attacks, mercilessly pounded the masked man’s entire body.
Although Throwing Fist had low power, it was possible to cast it continuously.
It was an herbivore that was not used very often in the past because if used excessively, it was extremely draining of internal energy and it was easy to read the path.
However, recently, as the level has risen and the total amount of internal energy has increased significantly, the efficiency of herbivory has increased dramatically.
‘Now it’s worth using in real life.’
To finish off the attack in one go, I swung my sword and released a lump of powerful energy.
Feeling a sense of crisis, the masked man twisted the new model before he could regain his balance.
However, he was unable to avoid it completely, and the flesh on his side was torn into pieces.
‘I never thought I would avoid a direct hit in that position.’
I clicked my tongue, swatting away the metal ball flying towards my temple.
The masked man stood up shakily and glared at me with bloodshot eyes.
The next moment, the masked man’s mouth opened wide.
The mokuldae rang loudly, and an enormous amount of energy rushed over the head that was tilted back.
Sensing an unusual atmosphere, I instinctively increased my strength and protected my body.
Wow!
The lion’s hoo (獅子吼) burst out.
The energy contained in the sound waves violently swept through the area.
“Tsk!”
“What is this…!”
A trickle of blood flowed from the corner of Damun’s mouth.
Those with relatively poor internal skills frowned and took a step back.
I looked slightly surprised.
I felt like I knew what the masked person was.
There’s no way you wouldn’t recognize such a unique martial art.
‘Were you from the Beast Palace?’
Even in my past life, I had never heard of a person like this.
Why is a Southern Man warrior active as a member of the Young Music University?

“this guy!”
The leader of the masked men who jumped in to save his subordinate unleashed a series of powerful attacks.
I opened the Wolyeonggeom’s Chosik and countered it.
The twelfth herbivorous meal, April.
The eighth herbivorous meal, Seowol (暑月).
The illusion of a sword fluttering like a dance obscured the opponent’s vision, and a sword pulsing with heat penetrated into a vital area.
Damn it!
Heavy collision sounds rang out one after another.
I looked to the side while linking the herbivorous movements in a flowing manner.
The image of the masked man retreating with the help of his colleagues, clutching his side, came into view.
‘Was there some connection between the Demonic Cult and the Beast Palace?’
For a moment, such a thought crossed my mind.
Beep!
The thoughts did not last long.
As soon as the whistle sounded, the masked people threw the beads they had taken out of their arms onto the floor.
Purple smoke billowing out.
Thick poisonous smoke covered the area.
Some time passes.
“······.”
When the smoke cleared, the masked people had disappeared everywhere.
It seemed like he decided that it would be difficult to reach a conclusion right away, so he withdrew.
I sighed softly and looked around.
There were no deaths, but most of the group suffered major and minor injuries.
Bangcheoksam approached Yeo So-ok, who had a stab wound on her shoulder, with a worried expression and spoke to her.
“Are you okay?”
“It’s not that big of a wound.”
“The poison must have entered through the affected area.”
“Don’t worry too much. “I have a contract canceled in advance from the Tang family’s warriors, and if the situation arises, I can borrow poisoned liquor from Dam Sohyeop and use it.”
My group and I moved to our seats and took some time to take care of our injuries.
Bangcheoksam and I, who were not seriously injured, stood guard.
‘Still, I’m glad.’
Everyone in the group was exhausted because they couldn’t eat or sleep properly.
It was far from perfect.
Nevertheless, since they defeated Yeongeumdae without any significant damage, it could be said that they did quite well at this level.
I rubbed my chin and organized my thoughts in my head.
‘The total number of those who attacked was twenty. It means that two groups were dispatched instead of one.’
The Young Music College was an organization comprised of a total of five groups.
There are twelve people in one group.
If there were two groups of people sent to eliminate me, the total number of members of the film crew should have been twenty-four.
However, the number of masked people who attacked was only twenty.
Naturally, I had doubts.
‘Where are the other four and what are they doing?’
* * *
‘I can see it.’
The eyes of the masked person, Yukho, narrowed.
A small private house seen far away.
He recalled the conversation he had with his boss two days ago.
[No. 6.]
[Yes, Captain.]
[Go here ahead of the target.]
[Isn’t this a small town with nothing special? The number of households is less than thirty.]
[What is important is not the size of the village.]
[if?]
[There is this village in the direction the target is heading. They are probably planning to stop by this village to supply supplies.]
[Are you saying we should go first and occupy the village to prevent that from happening?]
[Yes. The target’s moving speed is not that fast, so it won’t be that difficult to outrun it. I will give you number seven, number nine, and number eleven.]
[All right. It wouldn’t be that difficult to burn down a small village like this.]
[I don’t know anything else, but you should never leave food behind.]
[Please leave it to me.]
Yukho’s eyes, revealed above his mask, were narrowed.
How long has it been since you were given a mission where you could commit murder to your heart’s content?
As I imagined the blood festival that was about to take place, my face turned red.
“Speed up.”
After giving a brief command, Yukho kicked the ground hard.
The village that seemed only a dot in the distance gradually became closer.
The four demons quickly jumped over the fence surrounding the village and each took out a small gourd from their arms.
There was no better way to get people out of a house than by setting it on fire.
“Then let’s start playing with fire… huh?”
Yuk-ho, who had been muttering in frustration, swallowed the air.
A shadow cast over your head.
It didn’t take long to realize that it was an iron net.
‘what!’
I quickly pulled out my sword and swung it, and the iron net was torn to shreds like paper.
Yukho, instinctively feeling wary, looked around and shouted.
“Who are you?”
No answer came back.
Rather, as if Yukho’s shout was a signal, throws flew in from all directions.
Arrows, spears, rocks, coins, iron nets, etc.
All kinds of miscellaneous things flew in.
The four demons turned their backs to each other and swung their swords to strike them down.
“Hehehe.”
“You said that if I hid here and waited, he would reveal himself. That was true, right?”
“It’s just as the Lord predicted.”
“Is it 200 gold coins for four people?”
“It was a windfall. “Is there any other business left like this?”
Armed black thugs appeared from all directions.
There was a look of bewilderment in Yuk-ho’s eyes.
There were a lot more people than I thought.
I thought it was just the presence of civilians, but it turned out that they were all martial people.
I couldn’t understand where this large group of people had suddenly come from.
“Who are you guys?”
“What do those who will die soon know about that?”
A middle-aged man with an impressive scar running diagonally across his face stepped forward and spoke.
It seemed like he was the leader leading the dark leaders gathered here.
“dare. “You’re making fun of your mouth without even knowing the topic.”
“I’ll tell you one thing as a gift for the afterlife. “The Hwayang Sangdan has placed a bounty on your heads.”
“······prize?”
“Fifty gold coins per person. The leader who leads them is ten times that amount, five hundred nyang. Isn’t it amazing? “All the martial arts sects and families located nearby have become alert and are looking for you.”
“······!”
“I will tell you in advance, there is no way for you to survive.”
The middle-aged man drew a creepy smile on his lips.
Let the silence pass for some time.
The man shouted, slamming his hands from top to bottom.
“Shoot!”
* * *
‘As expected, did you read our movement route and dispatch your subordinates to the destination in advance?’
I smiled and leaned my back against the wooden pillar.
Even if that was the case, it didn’t really matter.
Because we took measures in advance.
The reason for breaking the contract with Haeulpyoguk was not simply to return the envoys to Seongdo safely.
It is often said that if you have money, you can make a ghost.
What is the point of running a clan or clan?
