Episode 288 You gave me hell.

Baek Cheon-gyeong looked at the doll.

The sword dance focused on the change in his expression. Was it because of the doll? His dazed eyes cleared up. It was a phenomenon of a person becoming mentally clear right before death.

Baek Cheon-gyeong’s reaction was unexpected. He laughed at the sight of the doll.

“Why are you laughing?”

Baek Cheon-gyeong’s gaze turned from the doll to the sword dance.

“I should have taught you how to carve when you asked me to.”

That meant it was made in a shoddy manner.

Geommugeuk said with a smile.

“Isn’t this pretty good for a first work?”

“Don’t go around saying that I taught you.”

Even though he was speaking clearly, blood kept flowing out of his mouth. He didn’t even realize that he was vomiting blood. Geommu-geuk felt sorry for him. He didn’t want to kill him.

“It’s dizzying.”

As Baek Cheon-gyeong’s body slowly collapsed, the trees that had filled the surrounding area began to disappear into the ground again. The two were freed from the sealed space created by the last secret, and the sunlight illuminated Baek Cheon-gyeong’s pale face.

“Just tell me who it is!”

Baek Cheon-gyeong knelt down and looked at the grass around him. As his life faded away, the grass and trees around him also died.

“You put me through hell… why should I tell you?”

It wasn’t just a grudge to kill yourself. It would be hell to die with the suspicion that you may have been someone’s puppet for the past ten years.

He looked up and saw the wooden dolls standing all around him. They too were losing their sense of humor. Wasn’t that doll he had carved for the past ten years not carved for himself?

“… … Don’t talk nonsense.”

He denied the words of the sword play.

The grass and trees around him swayed violently as if the wind had blown through them. It was because of his anger, but it also seemed as if they were mourning his death.

Geommu-geuk walked slowly and sat down in front of him. Their eyes met.

“I will take revenge. I will take revenge on you too. So tell me!”

Geommu-geuk knew that the more desperate he was, the angrier Baek Cheon-gyeong would become. But he couldn’t help it. It was too important to listen to him or not.

Baek Cheon-gyeong’s eyes were about to close.

“No! Don’t die!”

Geommu-geuk placed his palm on his chest and injected his inner energy. Baek Cheon-gyeong coughed, causing blood to splatter on Geommu-geuk’s face and body, but he did not stop injecting his inner energy.

Baek Cheon-gyeong opened his eyes again.

“Yeah… You said you wanted revenge too, right?”

Geommugeuk held the doll out in front of him again. Although he didn’t say anything, Baek Cheon-gyeong could tell. The face carved into the doll was Geommugeuk’s enemy.

The truth finally came out of Baek Cheon-gyeong’s mouth.

“Your revenge has nothing to do with me. The person who approached me… wasn’t that person.”

The sword dance was a surprise.

“This isn’t him?”

“He… didn’t look like this.”

In his last moments of life, it didn’t seem like he was lying.

“Then who is he? How can I meet him?”

But Baek Cheon-gyeong didn’t tell him about it. The last person he thought of before he died was Jin Ha-ryeong.

“… … I feel sorry for Haryeong.”

There was deep regret on his face.

“You told me to kill you if I don’t come back on time.”

The startled Geommugeuk shouted urgently.

“Where is she?”

Surely, I never expected that he would give the order to kill her.

“… … It’s already too late.”

“Where are you!”

Baek Cheon-gyeong used up all his strength and looked to one side. At the same time, the sword dance flashed and flew towards that direction at high speed.

“… … I will apologize to that child in the afterlife.”

With those words, Baek Cheon-gyeong lowered his head.

When he died, all the trees around him withered and died with him.

Now only the wooden dolls, completely dizzy, watched his death in silence.

* * *

The moment Jin Ha-ryeong saw Cho-rim entering the room, his heart sank. Cho-rim’s gaze looking at him was different than usual. It would have been better if it had been filled with murderous intent, but his eyes were filled with regret.

“You came to kill me.”

Chorim readily admitted it. Since the master had given strict orders, she had to be killed.

“I have no personal regrets about you.”

Jin Ha-ryeong felt death for the first time. I was dying? It didn’t feel real.

“I don’t want to die in a stuffy place like this. Let me see the sky just once before I die.”

When Chorim hesitated to answer, she asked again.

“Please.”

“Okay.”

The moment Chorim turned around and opened the door, Jin Ha-ryeong rushed in.

Shhh! Shhh!

Jin Ha-ryeong swung what she had in her hand and stabbed Cho-rim in the neck. What she was holding in her hand was a wooden nail that had been stuck in the bed.

The moment she felt that Chorim had missed the mark, she kicked open the door and threw herself outside.

After rolling on the floor, she suddenly got up and started to run, but then stopped.

Chorim came out of the back cabin, rubbing his neck.

“I understand.”

Blood was flowing from his neck, but the wound was not deep. Chorim was a master, and even if it was a surprise attack, it was not easy to kill him with a body without internal energy.

Even though he was walking out from behind, Jin Ha-ryeong didn’t run away. No, he couldn’t run away.

There were dozens of unmanned personnel waiting in front of the door.

Jin Ha-ryeong turned to Cho-rim.

“What do you understand? It’s me who’s going to die, not you. You’re trying to ease your conscience by acting so politely? You’re worse than that vulgar parasite.”

“I understand everything.”

“Okay, if you really understand me like you said… … .”

Jin Ha-ryeong picked up the wooden peg. Since his internal energy was suppressed, he would be no match for him anyway, but he had no intention of dying while looking up at the sky.

“You’re not going to kill me while suppressing my internal energy, are you? Let me go, let’s have a proper fight.”

Even if I released my internal energy, there were too many enemies, so the possibility of survival was slim. However, I tried to reduce the number somehow.

“If you release your internal energy, I will fight with this weapon. My subordinates are watching, so I must act like a leader.”

I wanted to stimulate her pride and release her inner strength, but Chorim had no intention of doing that.

“You are the best reviewer in Hubei Province, but do you think I can handle you if you release your internal energy so carelessly?”

“So? You’re going to kill a woman who resists with a wooden nail while her internal energy is suppressed like a coward?”

Even if I die, I won’t just die. I’ll have to scratch their pride and hurt their feelings.

Chorim said in a slightly annoyed tone.

“Thank you for this, I feel a little better.”

Jin Ha-ryeong rushed in. No matter how much her internal energy was suppressed, her skills were enough to make it to the finals of the Little Dragon Tournament. The wooden peg in her hand pierced the air sharply. Naturally, she was aiming for vital points like the eyes and neck, where she could immediately subdue her opponent.

While a dozen or so attacks were being exchanged, Chorim’s fist flew straight into Jinharyeong’s face.

puck!

Jin Ha-ryeong fell out.

“I’m sorry. I hit Hubei Ilmi in the face.”

The subordinates who were watching burst into laughter. Cho-rim and the subordinates, they were all enjoying this situation.

Jin Ha-ryeong got up from the ground, touching his face.

“From now on, live honestly. This is who you are right now. Kidnapping, beating, killing, laughing and harassing.”

Chorim did not deny it. As she said, she was not a good person. Not only her, but everyone here was the same. They were people who had committed sins and were being chased. They had a deep grudge against the Murim Alliance, and they were people who could not live in the light. Otherwise, they would not have been able to hide here for the past ten years.

Baek Cheon-gyeong promised. After killing the leader of the martial arts world, he would forgive everyone’s sins.

Shhh! Shhh!

Jin Ha-ryeong’s attack only grazed the air.

Amidst the laughter of those watching, Jin Ha-ryeong aimed for only one move.

A lucky move.

But Chorim didn’t have the skills to rely on luck.

puck!

This time she was hit in the stomach and fell out. It hurt so much that she could hardly get up, but she jumped up and ran again.

Chorim, who had been toying with her a few more times, was about to see the end. A tree trunk grew from the ground and bound her legs and arms, restraining her so she couldn’t move.

When Chorim raised his hand, a leaf flew in from somewhere and fell into his hand.

When it flew in, it was just an ordinary leaf, but when it was in his hands, it had an eerie aura.

“Your death will not be in vain. When you die, you will become fertilizer for these trees.”

Jin Ha-ryeong shot back coldly.

“Why? You filthy little sh*ts aren’t even worth any fertilizer?”

At those words, Cho-rim revealed her true colors. He spoke to her with an evil look in his eyes.

“If it weren’t for the orders to be polite and never touch you, you would have died loved by all of us.”

Regret crossed Chorim’s face. Knowing what it meant, Jin Ha-ryeong felt the greatest murderous intent he had ever felt. He really wanted to kill her. It was too unfair to die to someone like this.

Chorim raised his hand to cut off her neck with the leaf sword.

Even at the moment of her death, Jin Ha-ryeong did not close her eyes and stared straight at him. She tried not to show that she was scared, but her heart was filled with despair.

‘This is how you die.’

I didn’t know my end would be like this. At least I thought I would die more gracefully than this.

When I die, I hope to look back on my past life and die nobly. But when I think about how my grandfather and older brother will be sad, I get even angrier.

If he loses his granddaughter after his son, the grandfather’s heartache will be indescribable. His brother will also lose the only person he could confide in.

If they did this to you, you would be prepared to do it to them too.

When I thought about that, the first person that came to mind was Geommugeuk.

‘You are the only one I can trust.’

I never thought I would die while thinking of him at my last moment.

Just as the leaf sword was about to fly in to cut off her neck!

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!

A scream erupted along with the ear-piercing sound of wind.

Puppupupupupupup!

A giant sword flew towards them, sweeping away the unmanned forces.

Chorim dodged the flying sword that was aimed at him while cutting down his subordinates by stepping back.

bang!

The sword was embedded in the stone wall behind.

Surprised, Cho-rim looked in the direction where the sword had come from. There was a path between the subordinates, and on both sides, more than ten subordinates were lying in bloody clots.

“Build an iron fence!”

Tsk tsk tsk!

A shield began to form as trees rose from the ground in the direction the arrow had come from.

The wall erected in front of Chorim was the largest and thickest. After erecting the wall, he approached Jinharyeong again.

“No matter what happens, I’ll kill you!”

Just then Jin Ha-ryeong saw.

Someone suddenly flew towards us from the opposite side of the large sword that was stuck behind Chorim.

The movement was so light and brisk that not a single sound of wind could be heard.

When the person got down right behind Chorim, Chorim finally felt the presence and turned around.

What he saw was a line.

Shhhhhh!

Crunch.

A swift slash of the sword struck his neck and blew it away.

Chorim’s head fell off without even being able to let out a final scream.

The person who appeared in front of the fallen Chorim was Ian.

The flying sword was the Bloody Heavenly Sword of Destruction.

Ian was hanging on the back of the sword and flying with it. Since the sword was bigger than a person, I missed her flying with it while she was attached to the other side of the sword.

It was possible because of the internal energy of the Blood Heavenly Sword, and it was a time when Ian’s skills, which had reached the level of forming the Bicheon Sword Technique, were possible.

At Chorim’s death, someone among the crowd cried out as if in a fit of convulsion.

“Kill those bitches first!”

They rushed towards Jin Ha-ryeong and Ian. Ian had no time to release Jin Ha-ryeong’s internal energy.

Ian cut down the drones that were rushing at her. When she cut down four of them in succession, they changed their tactics. They took advantage of her trying to protect Jinharyeong as a weakness.

“Shoot the sword!”

The drones that could fire swords simultaneously fired their swords.

Ian shouted at Jin Ha-ryeong.

“Behind my back!”

You must not be harmed. In order to save Jinharyeong, you must dispel all the flying sword energy.

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!

At the same time, a dozen or so sword energies flew towards Ian. Ian didn’t have the confidence to block all of those sword energies at once, but he didn’t dodge. He couldn’t kill Jin Ha-ryeong.

That life-or-death moment!

Shhhh!

Phew!

Something came down in front of the two women and blocked the flying sword energy.

Boom! Kwaang! Kwakwa! Kwaaang!

The black energy struck repeatedly, but was unable to penetrate or destroy it, and all of it dissolved and disappeared.

Ian saw the giant sword blocking his way, and the man who had driven it into his path.

Surprisingly, it was the Way of Destruction.

Before they knew it, the Bloodthirsty Demon had flown there, pulled out the long sword that was stuck in the wall, and landed tall in front of the two people.

At the same time, there was a loud explosion and a clap of thunder.

Urrrrrr! Kwaaaaang!

The iron fence they had built behind them was shattered, and those nearby were swept away with it. The person who destroyed the iron fence that they were confident would never be broken with a single punch was none other than Kwon Ma.

In front was the Bloodthirsty Horse, and in the back was the Horse of Power.

One of the guys shouted at the sight of Kwonma.

“Kill that monster first!”

The moment he finished speaking, Hyeolcheondoma said briefly with a look of disappointment on his face.

“Oh, like that.”

Bloodthirsty Demon grabbed Ian and Jin Ha-ryeong, who were outside the Mystery Sword, and made them hide behind the Mystery Sword.

The next moment.

An ear-piercing thunder was heard.

Kurururkwakwakwang!

Ian and Jin Ha-ryeong had never heard such a loud and scary thunder before. They wanted to cover their ears.

Next moment!

WH …

An enormous amount of powerful energy swept past the erected Heavenly Sword. If Blood Heavenly Sword Demon had not supported the Heavenly Sword with both hands and injected his inner strength into it, the force would have pulled out the Heavenly Sword and sent it flying away.

Just one thunderclap.

And then came the silence.

Ian and Jin Ha-ryeong cautiously stuck their heads out of the Myeolcheondae.

The two women were astonished at the sight that unfolded outside.

There was no one left alive. In one blow, everyone there was engulfed in the energy from the fist and turned into corpses.

Kwonma stood alone with his large fist hanging down.

Even Ian, who was on the same side, felt fear at that sight. It was a completely different feeling from when they were training together. Kwon Ma in a real fight was a completely different person. Ian saw clearly today why Cheon Ma trusted the most among the demon lords.

Bloodthirsty Demon pulled out the Heavenly Sword that was stuck in the ground and put it on his back, and Kwonma started walking between the corpses toward them.
