Chapter 1110
Thin flying needles imbued with clear internal strength filled the sky. Baek Cheon’s pupils quivered.
“Stop it!”
Mount Hua’s disciples were frightened and quickly drew their swords.
“Urachaaaa!”
They unleashed their sword energy and created a water-tight barrier.
Kagagagang!
The sound of metal clashing against metal echoed as the needles collided with the swords and were deflected in all directions.
It’s a water-tight sword energy that’s strong enough to block even the falling rain! However, the needles that Tang Family threw were so sharp and harsh that they could not be compared to mere rain.
“Ack!”
“O- Ouch!”
Screams echoed from all around.
If they had prepared in advance, they would have been able to strike a slightly solid sword energy barrier. However, due to the hastily deployed sword technique, there was a slight gap, and Tang Family’s needles exploited those gaps without fail.
The good news is that the needles, which lost its strength while trying to pierce the energy wrapped around the sword, were unable to penetrate their flesh and were only at the level of grazing their skin.
“Those bastards carrying out surprise attacks like cowards?”
Sparks flared in Jo-Gol’s eyes.
Thinking about yesterday, it was such shameless nonsense that he shouldn’t dare to say, but of course Jo-Gol couldn’t have thought about such a fact.
“Kill them!”
“Knock them out!”
The strength of bandits is often measured by the size and height of the mountain they occupy. The bandits of Mount Hua, one of the Five Great Mountains of Jungwon, overturned their eyes and charged at Tang Family.
No, they tried to.
“Let’s smash them… Keu, keuugh…”
“Heok!”
“Blargh!”
“W-what is it?”
Baek Cheon violently turned around at the sound of a scream coming from behind. His comrades were collapsing, foaming at the mouth.
Baek Cheon’s eyes widened as he looked at those faces turning black.
“Po- Poison?!”
No, what’s this? Crazy, poison in a spar?
Baek Cheon, who had been unable to understand the situation for a moment, let out a desperate shout.
“Raise your internal strength and resist the poison! They’re using poison!”
After shouting, Baek Cheon turned his head again and looked towards Tang Family. With bloodshot eyes, he raised his voice and protested. No, he tried to.
But someone beat him to it, screaming angrily.
“Using poison in a spar, you cowardly bastards! What kind of despicable poison use is this? You dirty, vile bastard!”
Ho…. hoho….
Ah, right. That’s exactly what I wanted to say. Right, that’s what I wanted to say.
But…. Don’t you think it’s a little strange for you to say that, Soso?
I am extremely happy that you have now become a complete disciple of Mount Hua. However… I think your brother is there too… Aren’t your sense of belonging is too much?
“Exactly! Using poison in a spar is disgraceful!”
“That’s cowardly!”
“Has Tang Family lost all sense of honor?”
Tang Family, who heard the outpouring of praise (?), responded with their utmost effort.
“Get dooooooown!”
Mount Hua disciples, panicking, flattened themselves on the ground as throwing caltrops imbued with internal strength whizzed past overhead. Just by looking at them, they were shiny and meticulously coated with poison.
“Hyung-nim. Where do I hear this sound?”
“Sounds like a dog barking.”
The eyes of Mount Hua disciples who heard that voice became bloodshot.
“But what about those bastards?”
When they threw a fit, the members of Tang Family started giggling and laughing.
“Aigoo. They seem very angry.”
“Yangban who used to say that fighting should be done like a real fight is now foaming at the mouth over a little poison.”
“Sure, let’s say we’re cowards.”
“Since we’re being cowardly anyway, let’s do it properly. Spread it!”
The moment Tang Family members in the lead shook off their sleeves, a thick, acrid grayish-white smoke billowed out. The smoke quickly rode the wind and enveloped Mount Hua disciples.
“What is this?”
“Di- Dispersing poison (???(散功毒))!”
“Don’t breathe! It disperses internal strength!”
The dispersing poison, which causes problems in internal power management even if inhaled even a little, rose like a cloud and covered Mount Hua disciples.
The words “dirty and dishonorable” surged up their throats, but now was not the time to say them.
Swaeaeaeaek!
Throwing knives flew in, piercing through the poisonous smoke that had bloomed thickly. Mount Hua disciples, who rolled on the ground to avoid the attack of that amazing combination, turned their eyes white.
“Eua! You bastards!”
“Kill me!”
Five Swords leaped to the lead with a curse and shook their sword. Plum Blossom Sword Technique they deployed quickly struck the flying knives.
Of course, the poison used by Tang Family today is not a deadly poison that can kill people.
Moreover, Mount Hua disciples, with their high internal strength and the physique-enhancing effects of Jasodan, had a high resistance to poison, so if they were just cautious, they would not foam up after being hit by one or two needles.
The ones who had collapsed were those who had drawn all their internal strength at once without considering the poison.
But that’s beside the point!
“These bastards fight dirty!”
“You want a fight, huh?”
“Those rotten, poisonous bastards, always looking down on people with their prestigious titles! Stupid Sichuan hicks!”
Hearing this, Tang Family members also turned their eyes white with rage.
“But those bastards have the nerve to talk?”
“For a sect that uses poison in the first place, it’s dirty to ask them to spar without poison! That’s like saying we should play chess without rooks and pawn?”
“Then you shouldn’t use swords! Who are you to call us cowards!”
“Since when did you become such a big-deal sect?”
The mutual hatred was evident. The accumulated animosity was clear.
Now, only one thing remained.
“Kill them!”
“Beat them to death!”
Mount Hua, with their eyes filled with venom, rushed towards Tang Family like crazy. Tang Family, who saw this, scattered hidden weapons like rain and at the same time spewed dispersing poison in all directions.
“The damned wild boars are coming!”
“Trample them all!”
“Euaaaaaa!”
Endless shouts and mournful screams, and the clashing sounds of weapons, began to sweep through the training ground.
“Dieeeeee!”
Jo-Gol’s sword struck the side of Tang Family member who was retreating.
Udeuk!
Of course, he struck with the face of the sword, not the blade, but as soon as internal strength was applied, wouldn’t even a thin sword become harder than a steel club?
The person hit in the side couldn’t even scream and was sent flying.
“Once we get close, they can’t do anything!”
Having neatly dealt with one person, Jo-Gol quickly looked for his next target.
“Eurachaaaa!”
The moment he charged toward the opponent in his sight, members of Tang Family, who had become the target, immediately threw their bodies back and scattered hidden weapons.
“It’s no use, man!”
Jo-Gol’s sword moved as fast as a venomous snake and struck down the throwing knives. No matter how brilliantly Tang Family’s hidden weapons are thrown, it is nothing compared to the frenzied sword of Chung Myung….
Swaeaeaeaek!
But at that moment, poison-coated throwing caltrops enveloped Jo-Gol’s body.
“It’s no use!”
Following that were Cow Hair Needles (???(牛毛針)) thinner than human hair.
“It’s no use….”
After blocking those, there was poison sand and dust (??(毒粉)).
“N- No use….”
Dodging those with great effort, he then faced poisoned caltrops scattered on the ground and black iron balls flying like rain.
“Ahhhhh! You bastards!”
Jo-Gol’s eyes spun in a fury.
These guys fight really dirty. When they were allies, he didn’t notice, but now that they were enemies, they were the dirtiest fighters he’d ever faced.
These bastards were praised as being masters of poison and hidden weapons and as evil spirits with blood colder than that of a venomous snake, but now when the fight began, all they did was run away, throwing needles and spreading poison!
“Fight properly! Properly!”
The moment he shouted furiously, a Tang Family’s signature hidden weapon, a coin-shaped throwing blade, flew straight at his wide-open mouth.
Jo-Gol rolled on the ground in panic, dodging the attack. He quickly looked up, searching for the mocking laughter he heard.
One of Tang Family members was grinning. He said with a sneer that made Jo-Gol’s blood pressure spike sharply.
“You look just like a wild boar hit by a stone.”
“Tang Zhan!”
Jo-Gol gritted his teeth and gripped his sword tightly.
“You bastard… I never liked you.”
“Wow, listening to you, I almost thought you liked me. If we were in Sichuan, you’d be crawling under me.”
“Oh, right. Of course, that’s right.”
“Huh?”
Jo-Gol grinned.
“That’s why I’m so glad. Because I left Sichuan. Now I could give you a nice beating. I wonder how it would feel if the proud young master of Tang Family got his head broken by my sword and rolled on the ground crying?”
“But this bastard!”
“What! What are you going to do about it, you bastard!”
Jo-Gol raised his sword and rushed towards Tang Zhan. At that moment, dozens of hidden weapons poured out from Tang Zhan’s fluttering sleeves.
Kagagagang!
Jo-Geol, who deflected the hidden weapons, relentlessly pursued Tang Zhan. However, Tang Zhan simply backed away and scattered hidden weapons.
Looking at Tang Zhan, almost within reach but never quite getting caught, Jo-Gol let out a frustrated scream.
“Euuaaaa! You’re fighting so dirty! Fight properly, you coward!”
“Thanks for the compliment!”
“I, I will definitely kill you!”
Jo-Gol, who overturned his eyes, completely lost his reason and charged at Tang Zhan.
The situation was the same for the others. Swearing and shouting echoed from all directions. There was so much ill-feeling that both groups lost their reasons and ran wild as if they had encountered mortal enemies.
Chung Myung, who was looking at the chaos, which could no longer be called a match or a sparring match, from a distance, smiled happily.
‘It’s messed up.’
He saw Baek Cheon running wild, and Tang Soso grabbing someone by the collar and turning their chin with her eyes overturned.
Guys…. Of course, uh… It’s true that I wanted you to fight hard…. honestly….
‘I didn’t expect it to go this far.’
No matter how bad it is, these little punk…
I thought they would save face and take into account the situation to some extent. But how could I have known they’d fight like a bunch of deranged Evil Sects, throwing curses around? Huh? Guys?
“This….”
Chung Myung slowly turned his head and looked at Tang Gun-ak.
“Will it be… okay?”
“Hm? What do you mean?”
“It seems a bit overheated…”
Tang Gun-ak heard that and smiled.
“I don’t think it’s anything to worry about. Child grow up fighting, don’t they?”
“….”
Excuse me? At this rate, rather than growing up fighting, wouldn’t they get themselves killed fighting?
“If they get hurt like that….”
“So, what do you want to do?”
“Maybe we should stop them…”
“Huh?”
At that moment, Tang Gun-ak’s eyes were filled with venom.
“Ah, are you saying to run away after a win?”
“….”
“There may be such a law in Shaanxi, but not in Sichuan. Understand? If you win and run away, you better be ready for a knife in your neck while you sleep.”
Chung Myung was speechless and thought.
‘This person is not normal either.’
It was Chung Myung’s habit to say that there were no sane martial artists who had reached the highest level. But the problem was that he thought Tang Gun-ak was one of the better ones. This guy also inherited the blood of that crazy lineage.
“Uh…”
Chung Myung inadvertently turned his head and saw Yoo Iseol kicking the face of Tang Pae with the sole of her foot. Chung Myung couldn’t help but smile brightly.
‘I don’t know anymore.’
Right. Kids grow up fighting, after all.
Hoho. Hohohoho. Hohohohoho.
