Episode 268
I could recognize it at a glance.
That your opponent is a master who will never fall behind you.
It made me wonder why this person had never been known.
“I meet the Taesang family head of the evil family.”
Dokgo Woojin politely waved his hand and bowed.
Just as Ak Yeo-ryeong recognized Dok-go Woo-jin’s level, Dok-go Woo-jin also recognized Ak Yeo-ryeong’s level.
“Do you know me?”
“Isn’t there only one woman in Tangjin Wulin who has reached absolute heights?”
“but. “It was a foolish question.”
The group got off the horse and introduced themselves to Dokgo Woojin one by one.
Jegal-hye, wearing a bamboo hat, asked in a voice full of tension.
“May I ask what brought you here?”
“I came to help my disciple.”
“Are you saying you came to help the branch manager?”
Dokgo Woojin answers by nodding his head.
As if he had been waiting, Zhuge Hye gestured to the horse behind him and said.
“All right. “First, please go to the Baekmakmun Gate with us.”
“Is Soun at the back door now?”
“no.”
“if?”
“He led the main force of the rescue team and went to Lanzhou.”
“Lanju? “I heard that Lanzhou is currently the most dangerous area in Gansu Province.”
“yes. “The sighting information of the Plum Blossom Divine Sword Great Association has been cut off from Lanju.”
“You don’t know exactly which prefecture they went to?”
“Even we don’t know that far. “It will depend on which direction the survivors of the volcanic faction fled and what judgment the branch manager made at the scene.”
“Are you saying I have no choice but to jump in and find it myself?”
“Are you really planning to go straight to Lanju?”
“Didn’t I tell you? “I came to help my student.”
“Are you sure you don’t mind? “You must have been tired from the long journey, so it would be nice to take a break and go…”
“It’s okay.”
After finishing speaking, Dokgo Woo-jin bowed to Ak Yeo-ryeong and immediately kicked off the ground and jumped up.
He reached high altitude in just one leap and continued to kick the air and move.
The formations spread throughout the area could not stop him even for a moment.
The members of the Dark Nights and White Tigers looked up at the sky with blank expressions.
Ak Yeo-ryeong, who was staring at Dok Go Woo-jin’s figure quickly turning into a dot and moving away, smiled and muttered.
“Indeed, he is the disciple and the teacher.”
* * *
“Huh! omg!”
Dojang Cheonwoo let out a heavy breath as he climbed the sloping road.
The masters who looked at him sweating like rain asked with worried expressions.
“Master. Are you okay?”
“How about you take a shift with me soon?”
After taking a couple of breaths, Dojang Cheonwoo shook his head with a stern expression.
Because he was carrying his unconscious teacher on his back, he wasted twice as much stamina as other disciples.
Nevertheless, the reason why he refused the offer to rotate the executioners was not simply because of the priest’s ties.
‘I have to do it.’
The special training method, passed down only to those who inherit the title of Plum God Sword, dramatically increases the durability and recovery of the body.
Cheonwoo Dojo’s physical strength was far superior to that of other disciples of the Hwasan Sect.
Additionally, the speed at which the consumed stamina was recovered was fast.
Even the more advanced and stronger physiques were no match for him in terms of endurance.
“How about taking a rest there for a while?”
“There is no time to rest.”
Cheonpyeong Dojo, the leader of the group, shook his head at the suggestion of Cheongyeong Dojang, who was taking the lead.
It was impossible to know when the pursuers would attack.
Now I had to increase the distance between me and my enemies as much as possible.
“We are fine, but we need time to take care of the wounds that God Sword suffered.”
“······?”
“Look. “The wound was opened again.”
Cheonpyeong Dojang’s eyes widened.
I didn’t realize it, but just as Cheongyeong Dojang said, the side of the Plum Blossom Sword was stained red.
“why! “I definitely disinfected it properly and stopped the bleeding!”
“Aren’t the wounds inflicted by no one else but the Blood Witch? “First aid alone may have its limitations.”
“You look like a f*cking witch!”
“It could be dangerous if you let it continue to bleed. “I think I need to take a break, even if it’s just for a little while.”
“······I can’t do that. “Let only one part rest.”
Cheonpyeong Dojang reluctantly nods his head.
Ewha University students who were eavesdropping on the conversation between the two sides breathed a sigh of relief.

Although they did not say anything, they were all exhausted from the forced march that had been going on for the past few days.
It was a time when rest was desperately needed.
* * *
The Yi Dae disciples of the Huashan Sect, sitting huddled together in the middle of a dense forest, chatted in weak voices.
“What happens to us?”
“Don’t worry too much. Didn’t Shingeom say that? “A rescue team will be on the way to help us.”
“Isn’t that just a story of possibility?”
“Not really. “But isn’t it true that the pursuers have shown signs of impatience recently?”
“That’s true.”
“Don’t just look at the situation pessimistically. Wouldn’t it be better to struggle to hold on to a glimmer of hope rather than to cry out in pain?”
“······.”
“Just relax your expression first. “Don’t make other executioners depressed.”
“I understand.”
Everyone was feeling anxious.
It was impossible to know when and where the demonic cultists would appear and attack.
Even his spiritual support, Maehwashingeom, had collapsed and was wandering on the brink of death.
Although he was trying to say hopeful things, the atmosphere in the audience was inevitably dark.
Beep!
At that moment, the sound of a whistle echoed throughout the area.
Dojang Cheonwoo, who was tying the waist of Plum God Sword with a clean cloth, looked around in surprise.
Of course, none of the disciples of the Hwasan Sect carried a whistle.
Are you saying that you are crazy enough to take such items while being chased?
“shit!”
“They’ve already chased me!”
Dojang Cheonpyeong and Dojang Cheongyeong quickly stood up from their seats.
The two disciples immediately climbed up on a nearby rock and looked around with sharpened eyesight.
First, the enemy’s location had to be identified in order to determine an escape route.
Shhh!
An arrow from unknown origin flew towards Cheonpyeong Dojang’s shoulder.
Judging from the shimmering energy, it seemed like it had been sent by a master with considerable skill.
Kaang!
Hana Cheonpyeong Dojang is also an expert who has reached the pinnacle of excellence.
The arrow was struck down with just a light swing of the sword.
The title of Maehwageomsu (梅花劍殊) was not given to just anyone.
‘this.’
Dojang Cheongyeong sighed and looked back at the Ewha disciples behind him.
Demonic cultists were flocking from all directions.
It seems that the whistle that sounded a little while ago was not intended to announce the location of the prey, but was a signal to announce the start of the operation.
‘There is nowhere to run.’
If Maehwashingeom had been in good health, it would have identified the enemy’s presence in advance and opened a route of escape before the siege was completed.
Unfortunately, he was still unconscious.
‘no method. The only option is to go through the south, where there are fewer people.’
There was no time to relax.
We had to move before the siege narrowed further.
The disciples of this generation moved around busily due to the urgings of the two disciples.
Soon, the disciples of the Volcanic Sect formed a formation and began running south.
“Ugh!”
Soon there were injuries.
One of the students of Ewha University, located on the outer left side of the formation, groaned while clutching his shoulder where the arrow was stuck.
Cheonpyeong Dojang, who blocked the flying arrows and memorization, gritted his teeth.
There was no time to treat the wound.
First, I had to somehow shake off my pursuers and run away.
Chachaechaechaeng!
The demons who appeared on the other side all drew their weapons.
Each and every one of them was a skilled person who had reached at least the highest level.
“The Taoists have arrived!”
“Don’t miss a single one!”
Whoops!
Kwakwakwak!
The demons who rushed in with eerie laughter were pushed aside by the sword strikes of the Cheonpyeong Dojo and Cheongyeong Dojo.
After confirming the kill by spraying swords, the Cheonpyeong seal shouted in a voice full of energy.
“Don’t stop your steps!”
The screams of the demon cultists echoed throughout the area.
Dojang Cheonwoo, who was moving in the center of the formation, escorted by other disciples, looked to the side and said.
“Sajil.”
“yes. “Sasuk.”
“Please take care of me, Master.”
“yes?”
“It’s not that surprising. “I just decided that now is the time for me to take the lead and fight.”
Dojang Cheonwoo, who handed the teacher to Sajil, who was panicking, kicked off the ground and jumped.
Now was a time when he, who was relatively good at martial arts, should not sacrifice himself.
As a disciple of the Huashan Sect, I had to take the lead in fighting.
“Pathetic bastards! “Get out of the way!”
The giant who was watching the situation from the outskirts of the siege network stepped forward, shouting the lion’s hooves.
Every time he took a step, a pounding noise echoed throughout the area.
Huh!
The moment the giant swung the large ax he was holding with both hands, a terrifying wave of energy attacked the disciples of the Volcanic Sect.
Quaaaang!
An explosion rang out.
Dojang Cheonpyeong, who raised his sword to protect the Ewha students who followed him, cried out and vomited blood.
I only realized it after trying my hand at it.
That this is an opponent that should not be confronted head-on.
‘A top-notch expert!’
There was a reason why the southern encirclement was particularly thin.
I never would have guessed that there was a fireworks expert stationed there.
Dojang Cheonpyeong, who wiped the blood flowing from the corner of his mouth with his sleeve, exchanged signals with Dojang Cheongyeong through glances.
An enemy that cannot be dealt with alone.
Even if the two of them joined forces, there was no guarantee of victory.
In the end, there was only one option for them to choose from.
The two Taoists shouted as they quickly entered the gap between the other.
“We’ll take care of this guy!”
“I can’t guarantee how long you can last! “Get out of here quickly!”
The students of Ewha University looked devastated at the unexpected instructions.
Dojang Cheonwoo, who had joined the front line, looked back at them and shouted.
“What are you doing! “Don’t stop and keep running!”
Dojang Cheonwoo glanced at the two Taoists fighting fiercely with the giant and bit his lip.
I had no idea how to overcome the current situation.
“There is a sword spirit!”
“The old man being carried on the young man in the center is a sword demon!”
“Hahaha! The guardian deity of the volcano sect may not be able to protect the disciples of the sect, but rather, he is being protected! “The name of the Plum God Sword will make you cry!”
The demonic cultists, full of morale at the giant’s performance, roared and attacked.
Dojang Cheonwoo fought them with his sword of the Thirty-Six Plum Blossoms.
‘If only it were Master at a time like this.’
Kakakakang!
A sharp metallic sound rang out.
Cheonwoo Dojo’s skills surpassed those of the demonic cultists, but the numerical inferiority quickly pushed him into a corner.
The sword strikes from the demonic cultists roughly tore the hem of Cheonwoo’s clothes.
The skin cracked and blood flowed out.
“Kaaak!”
The Ewha students behind him were not safe either.
A young Taoist warrior whose chest was pierced by a spear fired by a demonic cultist helplessly tore down his body.
“Sajil! “Aaaah!”
Cheonwoo Dojang looked back with bloodshot eyes and roared like an animal.
Being pushed to his limits and his concentration heightened to the limit allowed him to reach an even higher level.
Ku-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa!
Three lines of swords erupted from the point of the sword and roughly swept through the demonic cultists in front.
“What!”
“Have you been hiding your skills?”
The demonic cultists appeared to hesitate at the unexpected development.
Dojang Cheonwoo rushed in without missing the opportunity and swung his sword one after another, opening the way.
Kaang!
Let’s go!
However, despite Cheonwoo Dojang’s activities, the siege did not collapse.
Rather, as reinforcements arrived, it became increasingly thicker and more solid.
Sigh!
A memorization thrown by a demon pierced Cheonwoo Dojang’s shoulder.
The movement of Cheonwoo Dojang stopped for an instant.
‘Is this the end?’
Cutlery came pouring in from all directions as if they had been waiting.
I had the illusion that the passage of time had slowed down.
Numerous thoughts appeared in my head and then disappeared repeatedly.
‘They say that when a person is about to die, they see a magic light. Is this what they were talking about?’
A bitter smile appeared on the corner of Cheonwoo Dojang’s mouth.
Although he did his best, he could not fulfill his role as a teacher.
“Sasuk!”
The moment when a cry of despair burst from the mouth of the Ewha student carrying the Plum Blossom God Sword on his back.
A black seal fell from the sky.
Kwaaaaaaaa!
A loud noise rang out.
The ground caved in and a tremendous shock wave engulfed the entire area.
Disciples of the Hwasan Sect as well.
Even the demons who formed the siege network.
Geohando was engaged in a fierce battle with two Taoists.
Everyone looked at the source of the noise with surprised expressions.
“Whoa.”
The dust is clearing.
The man standing on the corpse of the demon took a deep breath and spoke to Dojang Cheonwoo.
“Long time no see.”
“······Yeon small cooperative?”
martial arts,
