Becoming the Swordmaster Rank Young Lord of the Sichuan Tang Family Chapter 285

Episode 284. Deception

A moment when purple energy appears everywhere.

Ok-yang and Cheong-myeong were immediately delighted and shouted.

“… … You’ve arrived, Your Majesty the Jangmun!”

“Master… … !”

“You both did your best.”

Now leave this to me━ Okyeon spoke in a slightly serious tone, and silently drew her sword. Only the dim moonlight reflecting off the blade was noisy.

“… … It’s a little late.”

There was another figure quietly getting down next to Ok-yeon. Judging from the water droplet pattern embroidered on the hem of his robe, he could guess that it was Jong-nam.

Needless to say, it was Jongnam Geomjong Hakyu. He had a complicated expression on his face as he looked at Okyang, who had lost one of her arms. It was because Okyeon had moved to save Jongnam that she had suffered damage. He couldn’t help but feel a sense of guilt.

Hak-yu, who took his eyes off Ok-yang and looked around, suddenly realized something and opened his mouth.

“Sword. This child… …?”

It was then that he realized that the young man wearing the Hwasanpa uniform, which was covered in dirt and was tattered and worn out from having been rolled around for so long, was a strong man who had reached the level of Hwajokyeong.

“He is my disciple. He is called the Sleeping Dragon of the Volcano, but it is a nickname that Your Majesty has never heard of.”

“I am the last of the three scholars to meet with the eldest son, Jongnam Jangmun.”

“It’s all for show. The volcano has really suffered a lot because of the main branch. Now, you can relax. Plum Blossom Gentleman, I express my gratitude to you as well.”

Hak-yu waves his hand and says. The word ‘thank you’ originally has two meanings. To be grateful or to apologize for a mistake. Hak-yu’s words just now seemed to contain both meanings. Thank you, and also sorry.

“The long-suffering disciple of Hwasan has already achieved the achievement of the Harmony Sutra. I truly congratulate you. In these troubled times, the emergence of such a talented person is like a shower in a drought. This is truly a blessing for Shaanxi.”

The hostile relationship between Jongnam and Hwasan that had existed until now was now in vain, and Hak-yu sincerely congratulated Cheongmyeong on his achievements. It was a sight of genuine joy for his junior’s achievements, without any hint of jealousy or envy.

Well, how could it not be so?

If Okyeon and Hakyu had been a little slower, Hwasan would have lost both the long-disciple who had reached the level of Johwagyeong and the core master of the school. Now that Hakyu has realized how much risk Okyeon took to help Jongnam, he has completely and completely abandoned the hatred he had for Hwasan.

Meanwhile.

“Volcanic Sword Flower Jade… …?”

“Didn’t you take your disciples and run away forever? Why did you come back?”

King of Hell, Bukgung Hyeon, and Talmyung Kwon Ma Baek Li Cheong asked with expressions of disbelief. No, in fact, Geomhwa could have thought that he had made a hundred concessions and brought his disciples to a safe place before returning. The reason they were truly suspicious was because there was someone who should not have been here.

“you.”

Bukgung Hyeon pointed to a middle-aged Taoist monk wearing a robe embroidered with a water drop-like pattern.

“Jongnam Jangmoon… …? How come you are here?”

Not only Bukgung-hyeon, who asked the question, but Baekri-cheong also looked visibly confused. Even if others didn’t know, they knew. That Geum-ryeong, the signal officer of Magwangcheonju, had gone to attack Jongnam first.

Considering the time when Geumryeong left and his power, Jongnam should have been destroyed by now. However, the person called Jongnam Jangmun came to Hwasan relatively intact, so Bukgung Hyeon and Baekri Cheong were bewildered.

“Why, do you want to ask what happened to that person named Geumryeong?”

“What… … !”

“How did you do that… … .”

At Hak-yu’s words, Bukgung-hyeon and Baek-ri-cheong looked at each other with bewildered eyes. As the signal receivers of the Magwangcheonju, the existence of Geum-ryeong and Eun-ryeong, who usually hid their magic energy and presence, was known only to a very small number of upper-level figures within Magwangcheon.

The fact that Geumryeong was mentioned by Jongnam Jangmun meant one thing. The two had met. And the presence of Hakyu, who appeared here in relatively good health, made another conjecture possible – that Geumryeong may have been exiled after a fight with Jongnam Jangmun.

‘That’s ridiculous!’

The two people who knew of Geumryeong’s strength were convinced that Jongnam Jangmun was not capable of doing anything to him. If he had really tried every trick and fought while suffering serious injuries, then it would have been different. The fact that Hakyu was in good health was suspicious.

one.

At that moment, a person caught their eye.

Hwasan Sword Flower (華山劍花) Okyeon━ A peerless swordsman who has mastered the Jahashin technique and perfected the martial arts of the Hwasan school, and who can be said to be mature even in the Hwasan Realm.

What if she had joined Jongnam earlier?

It was suspicious from the start that Jongnam Geomjong and Hwasan Geomhwa appeared together in the middle of the night. Even if we put aside the fact that the two factions were not on good terms, it was still suspicious.

Bukgung-hyeon and Baekri-cheong’s heads roll quickly.

Geumryeong goes to Jongnam.

A swordsman who has definitely encountered the forbidden spirit.

Still, the appearance of the sword is intact.

It is unclear whether they fought or not, but judging from the attitude of Geumryeong when he went on a campaign, it is hard to believe that he would have let Geomjong live even if he had met him.

In that case, perhaps the ban was defeated.

What if the swordsman actually did not help the Hwasan faction disciples escape, but instead went to Jongnam faction?

‘… … Then all the devils will be hit.’

Bukgung Hyeon and Baekri Cheong reached the same conclusion at the same time.

It is said that Geomhwa and Geomjong joined forces to kill Geumryeong.

And as if to confirm their guess, Hak-yu’s mouth opened.

“Geumnyeong (Golden Bell)… … The man wearing a golden mask that covered half of his face was already a ghost. To be honest, I was surprised. Who would have thought that someone that strong would be acting as a signalman for the Magwangcheonju? The idea of attacking the main faction through Yangdong’s plan was quite brilliant, but Geomhwa here figured out the plan early and went to the main faction. If he were alone, it would have been difficult to deal with a man named Geumnyeong, but when we joined forces, it wasn’t hard to defeat him.”

“… … .”

Ok-yeon just stared blankly at Hak-yu and remained silent, but Bukgung-hyeon and Baek-ri-cheong could not help but think that her silence meant affirmation.

Bukgung Hyeon said.

“Your Highness… What happened to Hwamu Ryong?”

“Hwamu-ryong?”

“Ah. That’s him.”

Hak-yu unconsciously questioned the existence of the Grand Duke who suddenly appeared, but this time Ok-yeon stepped forward as if she understood and answered the question. Ok-yeon thought of someone who had caught her eye among those standing behind Geum-ryeong. Was that young man the Grand Duke of the Demonic Domain, Hwa-mu-ryong?

“Unlike the other minions, there was one who had a particularly strong spirit. He resisted quite fiercely. His bloodline was truly extraordinary. He must be the eldest son of the Magwang Heavenly Lord.”

“I asked what happened.”

“I don’t know if I really need to answer. They are the ones who crawled into Jongnam’s heart on their own two feet. Do you think he would have shown them any mercy?”

“You killed him…? How dare you, the bloodline of the Lord?”

Without fearing the aftereffects━ After hearing Baek Li-cheong muttering like that, this time Ha-yu opened his mouth with a look of laughter.

“Consequences? You’re thick-skinned. What consequential trouble would you have against those who tried to destroy your clan?”

“… … .”

Bukgung-hyeon and Baekri-cheong were silent. It was not only because they were speechless at Jongnam Geomjong’s sharp criticism.

At this moment, they lost the motivation to make achievements. As the guardian of the Demon Lord Hua Wulong, the head of the Shaanxi Hua family, the plan to establish him as the Lord of Magwang Heaven based on his achievements after the Battle of Zhengma and then enjoy all kinds of wealth and fame from a position above ten thousand people and below one person was completely ruined.

With the death of Hwamu Ryong.

The thought that if I go back, I might be rebuked by God, and resentment towards Geumryeong for losing her life in vain, are dizzying thoughts.

But now was not the time to worry about such things.

“The King of Hell’s horse, Bukgung Hyeon. The Demon King’s horse, Baekri Cheong.”

Volcanic Sword Flower Okyeon speaks in a decisive tone.

“You too will not be able to return from this place alive.”

That’s right.

The moment the swordsman Okyeon and swordsman Hakyu descended, the situation was almost reversed. Although some were unable to use their refined energy or were injured, there were four peerless masters who had reached the level of harmony in this place.

It was a difficult force to fight against two extreme masters. Even Bukgung-hyeon and Baekri-cheong were not in perfect condition. This was because they completely seized the opportunity to win and thus expended a considerable amount of their internal strength.

“… … .”

The two looked at each other, exchanged glances, and then flew simultaneously as if they had made a promise. It was a light move for retreat.

“Where… …! You can’t go there until you stick your neck out.”

“You were talking so loudly, but you were just talking nonsense!”

Okyeon and Hakyu followed Bukgunghyun and Baekricheong respectively, raising their swords and swinging their swords with a deadly force. Bukgunghyun and Baekricheong were shocked and fought back, but as they continued to fight, they realized that their feet were being tied down even more, and their faces turned pale.

Then suddenly.

“I will repay this debt someday.”

Bukgung Hyeon glared at Okyeon with blazing eyes, then turned around and ran away. He didn’t even care when Okyeon’s sword cut off his left arm from the shoulder blade.

Bam.

When Bukgung Hyeon’s arm fell to the ground, he had already disappeared into the distance. It was indeed a skill worthy of a peerless master.

Next was Baekricheong.

“That damned punk… … !”

Although he did not have one of his limbs cut off like Bukgung-hyeon, he avoided the swordsmanship of Hak-yu and occasionally took hits, allowing him to reach the recommended method. From then on, he was caught up in the shaman’s mysterious technique, the cotton palm, and was unable to escape. When he saw Ok-yeon, who had cut off Bukgung-hyeon’s arm, turn around, he tried to escape by taking a few hits. The combined attack of the two was not even enough to handle the geumryung, so he thought it was very likely that he would lose his life.

However, as if he had expected that he would be hit, Hak-yu swung his inner sword with the inner sword. Baek-ri-cheong was protecting his entire body with his inner sword armor, but the shaman’s inner sword was originally a technique that fully utilized the secrets of flexibility, and was famous for its power to neutralize external defenses and penetrate.

Ugh!

Was he seriously injured to the point of causing internal convulsions? Baekri-cheong moved away, dripping blood.

Okyeon and Hakyu did not chase them too hard. In fact, it was a remarkable achievement to have caused this much damage. They had used the fact that Geumryeong and them were at odds with each other and could not tell the truth from the truth to deceive them, but it would not last long.

Geumryeong would soon find out that the news of Magwangcheonju’s death that she had heard from Jongnam was a lie, and Bukgung-hyeon and Baekri-cheong would also likely quickly learn that Geumryeong was still alive.

Above all, isn’t it a situation where the Magwang Heavenly Master who destroyed the Sungsan Shaolin sect might come over to Shaanxi?

It would be the right decision to end things here and retreat.

Ok-yeon and Hak-yu nodded while looking at each other and then flew away. After a while, Ok-yang and Cheong-myeong followed after finishing stopping the bleeding.

Wheeeeeee━

The thick clouds that had been gathering were cleared away by the blowing wind.

The bright moonlight was shining brightly.

It happened in the middle of the night, near a volcano where there was no one.
