Chapter 298
Episode 298: I was happy to be with you (4)
The evil spirit will arrive here soon.
In the case of the Hwaryeong incident, a decision had to be made quickly.
Either wait and fight. Or just run away like this.
There wasn’t much time given.
However, the result was already decided.
Considering the injury to his shoulder suffered by Yang Kai in his fiery attack, it would have been reckless to fight Yin Kai.
To make matters worse, the windbreaker who was thought to have inflicted serious injuries still appears to be alive and well.
Hwaryeongsae glared at Yujinsan with eyes full of anger.
“I am leaving today, but I will see you again soon.”
Now she felt like she was losing all the fish she had caught right before her eyes.
If we had been given a little more time, we could have annihilated them.
The Murim lord and the Mujin elder of the Shaman faction. And the Hwaryonggae of open space turned its back and ran away without delay.
The crowd gathered from the small and medium-sized divisions cheered as they watched their backs.
“Those bad guys are running away!”
“Wow!!!”
They were no longer afraid of their leader.
As the cheers died down, someone could not hold back and let out a complaint.
“Have you guys seen it!? “A little while ago, the Murim Lord tried to kill us!”
What is there to be afraid of when a dark evil is coming?
The others also looked in the direction where the leader disappeared and offered their help one by one.
“I saw it all! “They are the worst bastards in the world!”
“The Great Council of Yin Kai will not forgive you!”
“Hey, you foul-tempered nun, aren’t you scared of the sky?”
It was a time when I was pouring out curses as I watched the Murim Lord walking away.
The windbreaker raised one hand and stopped the crowd’s provocation.
Amid the silence, Maeng Nam-cheon approached him with a limping step.
“Are you okay, Master?”
Windwalker’s complexion, which had been normal until a moment ago, was rapidly turning pale.
Something didn’t look good, as if someone had a rice cake stuck in their throat and was suffocating.
It was a while like that.
Suddenly, black blood poured out of his mouth.
“Keuuk!”
Soon his new form collapsed. This is the Windwalker who was fighting valiantly against the Murim Lord just a little while ago.
It was an unbelievable sight.
“Master Sa!”
As the being he relied on collapsed, Maeng Namcheon appeared to be in confusion.
Yu Jin-san, who was in relatively good condition, quickly approached and laid the wind rider down neatly.
He then looked around and was quite surprised.
“The details are critical. “Maybe…”
I couldn’t bear to continue talking.
This was because my stomach had completely turned inside out, to the point where it was a wonder that I was still alive.
‘How on earth did I survive with this body?’
Everything seemed fine until the Murim Lord disappeared before my eyes. It was clear that he was probably just pretending to be okay.
His strong will was admirable.
“How do you feel?”
Maeng Namcheon looked restless.
It wasn’t that I didn’t know how he felt, but I couldn’t hide the fact.
Jinsan Yu slowly shook his head sideways.
“There is no way because all energy and blood has been cut off. It seems like you used all of it, including the Seoncheonjingi…”
What is the Seoncheonjingi? It is the energy of fundamental life force that we have from birth. It produces more power than normal internal energy, but if you use up all of it, you will die.
All means were probably used to withstand the onslaught of the Hwaryeong Incident.
“What did you say just now?”
Jinsan Yu sighed in frustration and stood up.
“Unfortunately… you need to prepare for the end.”
In fact, Maeng Namcheon also noticed it to some extent. I just didn’t want to believe it.
“Master Sa!”
A person who seemed fine until just a little while ago dies. It was an unbelievable situation.
However, it was clear that the Windwalker was losing vitality at a rapid rate.
Maeng Nam-cheon knelt down, hugged him, and sobbed.
He was the protector of Zhejiang Province and a pillar-like figure.
There was no one who was not sad.
“Are you really saying that the old man is dying?”
“This can’t be right…”
The atmosphere was rapidly sinking.
At that time, a girl’s voice filled with prowess echoed from somewhere.
“Who dies!?”
Everyone’s eyes turned upward to the sky.
The snow that had left for Jiangsu Province was falling from the sky.
Taaa-!
The Murim people retreated to the left and right, clearing the way.
So that the footsteps of Yin Kai can reach him.
Windwalker, who was out of breath, struggled to turn his head.
“…Umm, sister-in-law.”
A small child of about six or seven years old was lying down with difficulty. I couldn’t help but feel sorry for that sight.
After a month, Yoo Seol came to sit at his bedside and began to check on his condition.
What on earth happened?
Because the Qi and blood were cut off, it was impossible to even infuse the body with True Qi.
“who is this? “Who did that!?”
Yoo Seol narrowed his eyebrows and looked around.
It will be about finding out who the evil beast is.
Jinsan Yu, who had been watching silently from behind, quietly informed me.
“The Murim Lord said that.”
One of Yuseol’s hands was shaking. It may be that you can’t control your anger.
“Ssi…”
Even so, the Murim lord I was waiting for came here.
Yu Seol felt like he wanted to find her and beat her to death right away.
But I couldn’t do that now. This is because the life of the windbreaker was in danger.
His body slowly began to convulse.
“…Keueuuuuu.”
Tears like chicken droppings flowed from Yoo Seol’s eyes.
“Don’t die!”
It hasn’t been long since I found out about him, but it seems like we became attached for a short period of time.
A round head with a small body that only reaches chest height.
And even a hand as small as a baby that fits comfortably in one hand. Seeing his weak appearance broke my heart.
Although she knew that he was older than her, Yu Seol felt as if she was sending her own younger brother away.
Everyone was so sad that they couldn’t say anything.
After a while the sobbing continued.
Suddenly something strange happened.
“Master Sa!?”
Meng Namcheon widened his eyes in surprise.
The face of the dying Windwalker suddenly became alive.
Even in his eyes, his spirit was clearer than ever.
“Don’t be sad, disciple.”
Although the voice was small, the pronunciation was as accurate as that of a normal person.
But it was something I couldn’t just be happy about.
Maeng Namcheon was also able to notice it without difficulty. This is a temporary phenomenon.
Revolving light reflection. It was a natural phenomenon, like a candle burning brightly just before it goes out.
It wouldn’t last long.
“…Master Master.”
A benevolent smile appeared on Feng Woonja’s face as he looked up at Maeng Namcheon.
“Today, I see that I didn’t teach you wrongly. “Always be proud and confident like you are now.”
“…yes. “I swear.”
“OK. “I have something to talk about with Sister Eumgoe, so please make room.”
There wasn’t much time.
Maeng Nam-cheon stood up from his seat and spread both hands, signaling everyone to step aside.
As everyone spread their distance, Yusul created a curtain around them, blocking out the sound.
Then he said with tears streaming down his face.
“Okay… I’m sorry for teasing you until now, Grandpa.”
Now I had to tell the truth.
It was something that couldn’t be hidden until the end.
However, the windbreaker still seemed to not understand the meaning.
“What do you mean?”
Yu Seol said, wiping her tears with her sleeve.
“I’m eleven years old, originally…”
The windbreaker didn’t believe that at all.
Instead, a warm smile appeared on his face.
“sister. “Are you being considerate enough to ask me to leave with a smile at the end?”
“Hmph.”
I don’t believe it, so what can I do?
Anyway, since I told the truth, I don’t think there will be any regrets.
At that time, the Windwalker spoke in a quieter voice.
“Go ahead and search inside my left arm. “I have a gift for you there.”
Yu Seol hurriedly opened his clothes.
My heart ached at the red, burnt wounds through the torn clothes.
And somewhere in there came a bundle of neatly folded papers.
“This this?”
“This is a martial art that I have been studying with my martial arts knowledge all my life. “I failed, but maybe… maybe you can complete it.”
It was clear that it was a valuable item, but I didn’t have the time to look into the contents right now.
Yoo Seol nodded and hurriedly searched inside her chest and pulled out something shiny.
“I brought you a gift too. Golden frog… isn’t it pretty?”
Yu Seol held it tightly in Feng Wunja’s small hand.
But what use is a gift when you are already dying?
Still, the windbreaker seemed very happy.
“Thank you. “I will take it with me to the underworld… and can you do me one favor?”
The Windwalker’s voice was getting quieter. It didn’t seem like there was much time.
“…Yes. “Hurry up and tell me.”
“This is where I have lived for one hundred and eighty years. “Please protect those children for me.”
It would include all of the Wulin people in Zhejiang Province, including Xiaoyo Mountain.
Even as he was dying, he was clearly playing the role of guardian of this place.
Yoo Seol cried and spoke urgently.
“I won’t let anyone touch me. So don’t die. huh?”
However, the life of the Windwalker was already rapidly fading away.
It seemed that the helioplast phenomenon was coming to an end.
He was out of breath and squeezed out his last words in this world.
“It was short, but still… I was happy to be able to be with you.”
“I did that too. “It was nice to be together.”
At that moment, a seemingly invisible smile appeared on the Windwalker’s face.
After a while.
His head slowly fell to the side.
I can’t believe that a person who was regarded as the supreme leader of the eastern martial arts world passed away in such vain.
The crowd watching began to wail without anyone.
Yu Seol also closed Wind Woonja’s eyes and sobbed for a long time.
* * *
After the turbulent storm passed, peace came to Soyo Mountain Lodge.
From that day on, many changes occurred in Yu Seol’s state of mind.
If it had been like before, I would have blindly set out to find the evil beast.
But now I was in no hurry to move.
Hwii-!
A ray of cool wind passed by, blowing the hair of Yu Seol, who was sitting cross-legged.
Yu Seol had been meditating for several days now, sitting cross-legged at the top of the canyon. It was to control the mind.
How much time has passed?
After a long time, I felt someone approaching behind me.
“I finally found it.”
At that moment, Yu Seol’s eyes slowly opened.
His eyes looked a little different than before.
The eye light, which was as deep as an abyss and as clear as a lake, was dazzling.
In the meantime, it has grown even further.
“Where have you been?”
“It is said that he is staying at Hogwang Gaekjan in Buyang County.”
Yoo Seol got up from his seat and glanced behind him.
A middle-aged warrior stood with his hands folded.
“Thank you, mister.”
“Of course it’s something we have to do. Yang Gui Daehyup and Lord Zhang are already waiting at the entrance.”
* * *
About 50 miles away from Soyo Mountain Lodge, there is a village called Buyanghyeon.
Now, in the guest room there, the elders of the Murim Alliance were sitting across from each other.
He hadn’t left yet and was staying nearby.
Is it because of the intimidation they exude? There were no other guests in the guest room. He probably didn’t even dare to come in.
And now, the open Fire Dragon Dog was looking at the Murim Lord and asking.
“How are the injuries suffered by the sheep?”
Hwaryeongsae still had a bandage tied around her shoulder.
This is because the wounds inflicted by Yang Goe’s blasphemous attack have not yet completely healed.
“It’s getting better, so don’t worry. By the way, when will Ambassador Hyegwang arrive?”
Hyegwang was the greatest master of Shaolin Temple and a disciple of the apostate monk Jeong Hye, and one of the top ten martial arts masters.
It seemed like he had decided to join us here.
“He said he would stop by the Namgung family and join the head of the family. “You will probably arrive within a few days.”
“I plan to leave as soon as I arrive, so prepare in advance.”
“Are you really going to attack me like this again?”
They were planning to reinforce their forces and attack Soyosanjang again.
It was to avenge the humiliation of the previous battle.
As he recalled the events of that day, one of the Murim Lord’s eyes burned like a flame.
“There is no reason to hesitate since the Wind Waker is dead.”
“That’s true, but…”
Hwaryeongsae said firmly, as if he had already made up his mind.
“The Yin-Yang twin monsters are worse than Geomhu. “If we don’t kill him at this opportunity, there will definitely be a backlash against us.”
At that time, Elder Mujin of the Shaman faction, who had been watching silently, spoke with an uncomfortable look.
“I think the atmosphere in this area is more unusual than that. “Everyone is looking at us with unkind eyes, as if we were in Sapa’s area.”
Hwaryeongsae raised one hand and covered his mouth.
“So… is there any problem with that?”
Her one and only eye stared intently at Elder Mujin’s face.
Although I was only looking at it, the feeling of receiving it was as terrifying as walking on a knife edge.
“If you attack Soyo Mountain Lodge again without justification, the reputation of the Murim Alliance will be ruined…”
“So I asked what the problem was.”
Elder Mujin avoided her gaze and answered in a low voice.
“…Nothing.”
Hwaryeongsae rolled up one corner of his mouth and smiled.
“The reason bugs climb is because there is a part of them that believes. “If we step on it, all the noise will go away.”
Although he spoke in a friendly manner, his voice was full of intimidation.
“Are you sure you’re okay with that?”
Hwaryeongsae nodded without any hesitation.
“Don’t you know, Elder? A world where power becomes justification and law. “That is Moorim.”
That was the moment when her words ended.
Suddenly, the door to the guest room burst open.
And then a girl appeared there, holding a spear.
“Is it you? “You tight-lipped bitch.”
Mujin and Hwaryonggae had blank expressions. He instinctively sensed that the other person’s identity was a mystery.
And Hwaryeongsae was wiggling his eyebrows as he grasped the situation.
In the midst of quiet silence.
Yuseol ignored them and trudged towards the kitchen.
“mister. “I think the guest room will be a bit ruined from now on.”
The owner of the guest house asked back in a dying voice, not knowing what to do.
“…yes?”
At that time, Yoo Seol placed a pile of something on the shelf in the kitchen.
Tu-tu-tuk-!
“I’ll pay for the repairs in advance.”
There were as many as six silver nyang.
A small guesthouse like this cost a lot of money, enough to build a new one.
What kind of rice cake is this? The owner, who was confused for a moment, retrieved the eunja as if hiding his eyes.
“It’s okay even if it turns to dust, so enjoy it to your heart’s content. I’ll be out.”
