Side story 156. Soaked in blood (6)
Thud!
Blood rose high into the sky and poured down like rain.
As if drenched in a shower, Yi Cheon-sang’s body was also drenched in blood.
Even so, not a single drop of blood was on the murky, milky-gray blade. It was truly a sword of peerless value.
The tiger face did not see the white bone map.
In his eyes, only the two thousand and one were visible.
“How did you know about this place?”
Lee Cheon-sang carelessly threw away the mask he was holding in his left hand.
The mask that rolled on the ground with a rattling sound was a strangely shaped white rabbit mask.
Contrary to its typical rabbit-like appearance, it was clearly a rabbit, but its slanted eyes and protruding front teeth were expressed in an overly humorous way, which actually caused fear.
The tiger’s eyes became deep.
‘Even the white fog rabbit.’
Baekmuto was the number one assassin among the twelve zodiac signs.
And he was a veteran who had been a member of the twelve zodiac signs longer than Ho-myeon and Sa-myeon. It was also said that Baek-mu-to taught the secret technique to the deceased Hong Mo-hu.
How could such a fool like Baekmu die so meaninglessly?
‘Is that it?’
Even Baekmutoya herself could easily be caught. Even if she didn’t know her martial arts, it wouldn’t have been difficult to catch her.
That, I was thrilled that it was possible for Lee Cheon-sang too.
There were no traces of being hit by Baek Moo-to’s Baek So-hyeol Sword on Lee Cheon-sang’s body. There were also no traces of being hit by Baek Eum-jang.
That is to say, he killed him without even allowing a single blow.
“That’s amazing.”
At this point, even as a tiger, I couldn’t relax any longer.
“The twelve zodiac signs have fallen apart like this because of you alone.”
Yi Cheon-sang turned his wrist without saying a word. The Baekgoldo sword’s blade that followed his wrist scattered a quiet murderous intent.
The tiger’s eyes became deep.
“Is this what Cheongseo told you?”
“… … .”
“There is no answer.”
There is no answer, but it would have been obvious.
There are quite a few secret places where the twelve zodiac signs gather. The fact that he specifically chose this place means that Cheong-ae-so has been observing himself and the four-faced ghosts without anyone knowing.
‘You really do pick out the most rat-like things.’
The tiger’s face looked at the green planet.
The green dragon lowered its head, then kicked the ground.
Paaak!
The green dragon’s new method of rushing in at lightning speed was even faster than the four-faced demon.
Among the twelve zodiac signs, the fastest technique was possessed by the Nokseong-gye, whose main martial art was the retreat technique using its strong leg strength. Although it was vulnerable to repeated attacks, the destructive power of a single attack was strong enough to surpass the Predatory Sword of the Four-faced Demon.
Papapang!
The green dragon that had entered the front and disappeared occupied two places on the rear flank of Icheonsang and then immediately swung its right leg.
A scream as if the air was being torn apart. It felt like a thick, solid iron club was being swung like a log.
Lee Cheon-sang, who had been standing still and looking at the tiger face, suddenly raised his left hand like lightning.
Phew!
The green star system’s laws brushed Lee Cheon-sang’s hair.
For a moment, his posture was disrupted in midair and he fell head first to the ground. It was an unbelievable sight.
Fight!
Green Star, who bounced back by touching the ground with both hands.
At that moment, the tiger’s face cried out.
“damage!”
Phew!
The body of the green dragon staggered.
The sudden blast of wind split his torso diagonally.
“Krrrrr.”
Green Star, whose two lungs were cut off on the left and right, fell to the ground and died without even being able to scream.
“… … !”
Blue veins appeared on the tiger’s neck.
‘What was it?’
I don’t know what Nokseong-gye thought, but Ho-myeon-gwi thought Nokseong-gye would lose his life within five rounds.
Five sums would have been enough. After seeing Lee Cheon-sang’s response, he immediately joined the battle and made a surprise attack, trying to turn the tide of the battle in his favor.
However, Lee Cheon-sang killed Nok Seong-gye with a strange trick without even trying to divide the sum. His indifferent gaze was turned towards him until the very end, and he did not let his guard down at all.
‘What on earth method did you use to get to the Nokseong world…?’
At that time, Lee Cheon-sang said.
“I don’t think it’s directly connected to the Bloodthirsty Demon.”
At that moment, Homyeon-gwi felt goosebumps run down his spine.
From the moment they first met, Lee Cheon-sang realized that he was in contact with the Kwang-hyeol Shin-ma. He doesn’t know how he knew, but the important thing is that he couldn’t say no there.
The tiger’s face tried to speak calmly.
“Why are you looking for the bloodthirsty old man here?”

It was a clever statement.
There was no mention of it being connected to the Kwanghyeol Shinma, but it was enough to give the impression that it was.
Lee Cheon-sang’s answer was a masterpiece.
“I don’t want to deal with people like you.”
“… … !”
“Contact the middle manager. Tell him I’ll come see him in person soon.”
Hwaaaaak!
A frenzied energy surged from the tiger’s body.
Although I was momentarily overwhelmed by Lee Cheon-sang’s gaze and voice, there was a certain difference between the two in terms of skill.
Even though Lee Cheon-sang had mastered superior magic, that wasn’t a big problem for Ho-myeon-gwi. He was confident about that much.
“I was just looking at it because I thought it was good, but I guess I was really underestimating it.”
“Aren’t you going to say anything?”
“Middle management? Low-level? Interesting.”
Flash!
The tiger’s pupils turned yellow.
In the realistic tiger mask, the pupils had turned bright yellow, like those of a real tiger. There was a small dot in the center of the yellow pupil, but if it weren’t for the whites of the eyes, it would not be strange to mistake him for a tiger-faced person.
“Our Zodiac is an organization that brings together the best talents in the school.”
“… … .”
“We are the ones who are ready to rise to the top by killing each other and dying in the future. We are the chosen ones.”
“… … .”
“But why are you talking about something like ‘lower level’ or ‘middle level’?”
The tiger was genuinely angry.
He had a strong desire for power, but he was not in a position to relieve it right away.
In the end, that desire led to pride in oneself and a yearning for a beautiful future. To him, who was like that, calling him a low-level person and speaking as if he had no interest in him could be said to have touched a sore spot.
“You’re too clumsy for a chosen talent.”
“… … .”
“If you truly believed that, then there is no need for you to try to reach the top of the new religion without being crazy like a mad demon.”
“… … !!”
“He is more ignorant of the ways of the world than I am, so he will have nothing to say even if he dies.”
The tiger’s energy wave exploded.
“Lee Cheon-sang!”
Paaaaang!
The tiger’s face rushed forward.
Hongsan had some idea of the personality of the face-mask. So, Lee Cheon-sang stirred up the face-mask’s mind according to his words.
I didn’t know it would work this well, but I was fully prepared for battle. I heard that the Tiger’s Face’s martial arts were the type that could crush an opponent in one breath with incredible speed and explosive combos, so I had also devised a strategy based on that.
but.
‘I didn’t know it would be this bad.’
Oh my god!
The fist of the tiger face struck the Baekgoldo of Icheonsang, creating a tremendous resonating sound.
Lee Cheon-sang’s body was suddenly pushed backwards.
He couldn’t even use the martial arts technique of dispersing the shock by relaxing his body. The movements of the tiger’s face were that fast, and his fists were like a flash of light.
The tiger’s face smiled faintly.
It was as if the face and the mask were one, and I could tell that she was smiling even though I couldn’t see her.
“It’s light, Lee Cheon-sang.”
Flash! Crunch!
The blast of wind cut down the tree behind the mask straight down.
Before I knew it, the tiger’s face appeared on the side of Icheonsang.
It wasn’t stealth. It was just fast and dynamic.
Papapapapang!
Every time he hit the ground, there was a popping sound, and every time he swung his fist, it screamed as if the air was being torn apart.
That wasn’t all. Even though he unleashed five punches in an instant with the power equivalent to a single strike from the Nokseonggye’s retreat method, he didn’t even show a single sign of gasping for breath.
‘Strong.’
The shock felt from Baekgoldo flowed through both hands and shook the entire upper body.
He staggered as if his back was about to break. The speed of the Tiger’s Face’s Yeonhwan Ohkwon was comparable to the fastest of the Diamond Horse’s Fist. The power was incomparable. At least, the current Diamond Horse Fist could not compete with Tiger’s Fist.
Jeez, jeez!
Lee Cheon-sang, who blocked Ho-myeon-gwi’s fist with a breathtaking swiftness, was unable to avoid Ho-myeon-gwi’s knee that was striking from below.
bang!
Lee Cheon-sang’s body flew through the air.
It was a power that was unparalleled in ignorance.
‘It looks like a real tiger.’
I have quite a bit of experience hunting tigers. Two of those times, due to terrain variables, I had to directly confront tigers and it was a matter of life or death.
‘No, it’s not similar. It’s exactly like the tiger’s movements.’
Teardrop!
The hand of the tiger-faced ghost, flying up with a terrifying elasticity, grabbed Lee Cheon-sang by the collar.
Sizzle!
If I hadn’t pulled back at that moment, my breasts would have been ripped off and blown away.
The claw marks from a tiger in the past were clearly visible through the torn front fender.
‘If it’s tiger hunting.’
Papak!
Lee Cheon-sang, who had knocked down the tiger with two short, single-strike kicks, quickly got down to the ground.
‘Rather easy.’
The martial arts of the tiger-faced ghost were martial arts that were modeled after the movements of an actual tiger.
Of course, it is much stronger than the strength of an actual tiger. If you think about the time you hunted a tiger and react accordingly, you will not be able to avoid death.
But what if we just think about movement?
Phew!
The hand of the tiger that came down to the ground together struck the tree and broke it. If he had not thrown his head back in time, his head would have been blown off.
‘Three times, no, four times more.’
Pubber pubber!
Lee Cheon-sang’s arms were covered in blood.
The two arms of the tiger-faced ghost resemble the front legs of a tiger. It stood up on its hind legs and struck fiercely with its two front legs, as if it were truly wrestling with the king of the mountains.
The strength was strength, but the ferocity was especially impressive. It was like the tiger’s strength, but amplified several times. It was as if a tiger the size of a house was growling and baring its teeth right in front of you, and an ignorant murderous aura was emanating.
‘There is no tooth attack.’
Phew!
Lee Cheon-sang’s body rolled on the floor as he swung his claws as if pushing away.
For a moment, Lee Cheon-sang’s eyes lit up.
The moment he rolled on the ground, his eyes held the power of the Blood Fire Demon.
In the bloodshot eyes, the flow of the opponent’s magical energy was clearly captured.
The tiger’s face was struck by rain.
At the same time, Baekgoldo rotated and stepped on the path of the Yaksha Bloodline’s Na Baek Gwisu (羅伯鬼手).
Choaaaak!
“Ugh!”
The tiger’s right arm was cut off from the elbow and flew away.
Even an equal master would not be able to think properly due to the overwhelming pressure. However, as always, Lee Cheon-sang maintained his calm like a lake even in the face of the enemy’s strong murderous intent and energy waves.
Taang!
Lee Cheon-sang, who had been kicking the ground, swung his foot.
Snap!
“Ugh!”
When I hit the gong, the tiger’s eyes turned white.
Waiting for the staggering Homyeon-gwi’s legs to stretch out, Lee Cheon-sang launched his attack.
Snap!
There was no scream. The moment the mask was stretched out, the knee was hit and now only the left leg was left.
“Ugh! This guy doesn’t even know shame!”
“In life, you must choose your means and methods, but in a fight, you must not choose anything. This is the spirit of the Yaksha Commander.”
“This dog is worse than me!”
Phew!
The tiger’s mouth opened wide. The bone sword that had pierced his healthy left shoulder was stuck in the ground.
Lee Cheon-sang, who had also stepped on the remaining left leg and fixed it, asked in a cold voice.
“Fighting more guys like you won’t get us anywhere.”
“Ugh!”
“Tell your superiors everything, and I won’t take your life.”
“… … !!”
“Now that you’ve become a beast, you won’t hesitate to use any means necessary to avoid death, right?”
The short but fierce battle with the twelve zodiac signs has ended.
Lee Cheon-sang, who had been passively waiting for the enemy to come, finally decided to move actively to destroy the enemy.
“Who are you? Your superior?”
