"Hi everyone, translation for this novel is coming from: AgusTus

Chapter 273 - So what's important?

Surprised, Sword King Namgung Byeok jumped back and escaped the danger.

After stirring the air roughly, the fire dragon disappeared.

After the workshop was over, the complexion of Namgung Byeok became more subdued.

While he was advancing, the opponent's martial arts were so amazing that he had to step back.

Even the expression of Kang Sang-pi, a ghost of heavenly blood, disappeared.

It was because he couldn't even get hurt even if he opened the fire dragon's magic sword in succession.

There has never been anything like this since he mastered the Fire Dragon Blessed Demon Sword.

That's when the two of them are surprised at each other's inaction.

Suddenly, a huge object slammed into the ground, cutting through the smoke.

Kwaaang-.

A cloud of smoke billowed out once in a while.

It was a demon dragon that should be in the sky.

The demonic dragon, hidden in the smoke and invisible, crashed.

Namgung Byeok and Kang Sang-pi abandoned their opponents and focused on Mryong.

Both of them have cautious faces, as the reason why the dragon fell determines whether or not they are good or bad.

The reason soon became apparent.

The Demon Dragon fluttered a few times and fell limp, with a sword stuck in its head.

Pussss-.

The demon dragon turned to ashes and scattered.

Then, in the air, a young man descended slowly like his father.

It was serialized.

Namgung Byeok's complexion brightened when he saw him.

"Whew! look at this smoke Why do you have to set fire to a mountain that is fine? uh? Uncle? Are you here?”

“Welcome. That old man is Baekdumkun, who is called the Spirit of Heaven.”

Namgung Byeok pointed at the Honcheon Blood Ghost as if he were telling a story.

In this case, Namgungcheon seems to resemble her father.

Kang Sang-pi immediately recognized the identity of Yeon Jeok-ha at the sound of his uncle.

The relationship between Yeon Jeok-ha and the Namgung family was widely known even in famous religious circles.

“Are you in a relationship?”

Kang Sang-pi's interest shifted from Namgung Byeok to Yeonjeokha.

It is only natural that the best enemies of famous schools today are rivals.

Holding the sword that had fallen on the floor, the rivalry walked towards Kang Sang-pi.

It's Baekduma's attitude and doesn't care at all.

"Why did you set the mountain on fire! Why don't you just quietly run away? Did you start the fire with the hope that you will die and I will die?”

“Crazy. Who started the fire... … . come! Come to think of it, you guys set the fire!”

Kang Sang-pi was furious at her opponent's brazen tricks.

Yeonjeokha smiled and spoke.

“Why would an old enough man do that? The bad things in the world originally belong to the dead.”

Kang Sang-pi looked at Yeon Jeok-ha with a stunned face.

So, it means that they will commit murder.

How dare there be a madman who dares to do such a foolish thing in front of himself, Baekduma Soldier?

In the meantime, Yeonjeokha kept walking and finally stood two or three paces in front of Kang Sangpi.

It was a dangerous distance even for masters, where swords came into direct contact.

Swordsmanship, form swordsman, etc. are all spread out at an appropriate distance.

When there is a little distance from Jingeom, there is room for body movement.

It was for this reason that Namgung Byeok was able to avoid the Hwaryongbok Demon Sword a while ago.

But when you're so close, it's not easy.

The distance itself becomes lethal.

The two of them closed their mouths and stared at each other with sharp eyes.

The two didn't miss each other's breath, not even the subtle trembling of their eyebrows.

When his concentration reached its peak, even time seemed to stop.

No more smoke, no more noise around them.

Yeon Jeok-ha and Kang Sang-pi almost simultaneously stretched out their swords.

To spread formal food on a street like this is like asking to be killed.

Naturally, the swordsmanship of the two was out of shape from the beginning.

Chae-chae-chaeng-.

Blocking the opponent's attack, stabbing the sword into the visible empty space.

It was the same with Kang Sang-pi.

The one-step battle proceeded at an invisible speed.

If Yeonjeokha's sword containing Gucheongi emitted a white light beam, Baekdu Demon Soldier Kang Sangpi's sword was as black as pitch black.

Just by looking at the black and white brilliance, you can tell that the sword skills of the two are incompatible.

Chaeyoung -.

The two men, who were breathlessly exchanging sword strikes, widened their distance for a moment.

Even though it was clear that they were putting their whole heart into it, the sound of the two breathing was as quiet as the first time.

Namgung Byeok looked at Yeonjeokha with new eyes.

Kang Sang-pi was the great killer of the previous era, but even so, Yeon Jeok-ha's achievements were unbelievable.

The two, who were glaring at each other as if they were going to eat each other, jumped forward again.

In this case, even a single leaf flying away is a great threat.

Namgung Byeok hit a stone the size of a chestnut with the tip of his sword.

The moment a stone flew along with the blow hole was about to hit Kang Sang-pi's peach bone.

Kang Sang-pi hurriedly lifted her foot to avoid the boulder.

“Such a dog… … .”

Kang Sang-pi, who was cursing at Namgung Byeok, hurriedly stepped back.

The root of the problem was that he took his gaze away from the enemy's sword for a moment.

When the sword hit, her shoulder felt hot.

“Dare, dare… … .”

Kang Sang-pi trembled as he looked at Namgung Byeok and Yeonjeokha alternately.

It's the first time I've been stabbed with a sword since I came out in Gangho.

But how did a guy called the 10th generation master use such a naive method!

“Ah, don’t get me wrong. It was because the ashes were flying, so I just hit it with a stone. Jeokha, don't leave that old man to you for a while. Hold on until he has dealt with the Twelve Horses.”

"yes!"

When Yeon Jeok-ha answered vigorously, Namgung-byeok waved her hand and disappeared into the smoke.

As soon as Namgung Byeok disappeared, Sangpi Kang blew a long whistle and said, ‘Hwiiik!’

Then, without looking back, he threw himself into the smoke.

Right after Kang Sang-pi left, Namgung Byeok, which had disappeared, reappeared.

"uh? Didn’t you go to catch the Twelve Horsemen?”

“You mean it's easy to catch them knowing where they are? It was done to deceive the spirit of the heavenly blood.”

"ah! I thought it was real.”

“Do I look like someone who would leave a formidable enemy like a soul-blood demon on you and run away?”

“That’s right. But where have all the others gone?”

Yeonjeokha looked around.

However, only his smoke was thick, so I couldn't feel his presence anywhere.

“As the fire spread, it seems that they descended the mountain little by little while fighting. If you hadn't started the fire today, I would have been in big trouble.”

“Come on, uncle. Didn't I start the fire?"

"Okay. I did everything because I ordered you to, so don't worry too much.”

“They say the fire was caused by the soul-blood demon?”

“Yes, yes. Let's find others soon.”

Namgung Byeok hurriedly took the lead, letting out an obvious lie in one ear.

It was not difficult to find the masters of the Chunjimaeng.

Right below it, the masters of the jujakdae and ligament were gathered together.

Seeing the Namgung wall, Hwanwoo sword Seonwoodam hurriedly ran.

“I guess you were safe too. With the sound of a whistle, the enemies retreated, so I thought it was resolved.”

“Are they all survivors?”

Namgungbyeok, who was looking around her, frowned at her.

There were 40 suzaku sticks, 60 ligaments, and 5 sorcerers.

Of the 220 people who came out with the Cheonji League, nearly half died.

At that time, Seonwudam asked Yeonjeokha.

“Senior Gongja, it seems that a considerable number went in that direction as well. How was it?”

“About sixty of the twelve horsemen came down.”

“Daeju Namgung. did you hear It was only luck that it ended with such damage. On Mount Walnut, there was one army of 100 horses and seven soldiers of 12 horses. How many of us would have survived if Namgung Sojeo hadn’t put firepower first?”

“… … .”

Namgung Byeok did not refute.

Though she thought she was lucky, her heart was heavy.

“I will propose the dismissal of the musketeers as soon as they return to the army. It's like pushing us to the limb to kill us.”

Merchant Younggyeol, a long-time shaman who joined the conversation belatedly, also helped.

“Bindo, too, is not going to condone this incident.”

Some of the Twelve Horsemen were said to have fallen off, but in reality, there was even a Baekdu Horse Army.

It was clear that there was a problem with the musketeer's information, or that it was deliberately hidden.

Seonwudam and the merchant Yeonggyeol believed it to be the latter.

As the sun set, it rained as Namgung-yeon had predicted.

The masters of the Cheonjimaeng hurriedly built a camp near Mt. Hodu and stayed overnight.

The rain stopped only the next morning.

After waking up, he went outside and looked up at the rain-washed walnut mountain.

The summit, which had been covered by smoke until yesterday, was clearly visible.

Although it was charred, the grandeur was still there.

A magician approached Yeonjeokha, who was nodding his head in admiration.

It was Ehwaseon.

“I feel sorry for Confucius Yeon.”

"Yes?"

"No. You said you did a good job.”

Lee Hwsun hurriedly turned around.

When he was about to write a report saying, ‘Yeon Jeok-ha and Mu-yeong Bima set fire to Mt. Hodu’, he felt sorry for nothing.

In the end, it was good, but in one way or another, the two would be disadvantaged for it.

“I did work hard. Is it because you smoke a lot? I still feel that way inside.”

"ah! Because of the wildfire... … .”

“Anyway, famous religious people are really bad. I don’t know why they set fire to the mountain.”

“Fire is… … .”

“They said it was from my mouth that it was from the spirit of the heavenly blood.”

"to?"

Lee Hwseon's eyes widened at the unexpected words.

He knows for sure that he started the fire, but I don't know what he's talking about.

“Yesterday I heard from the Spirit of Heaven. She said she paid for it.”

"ah! such a thing... … .”

Lee Hwseon's mind became complicated.

Yeonjeokha diligently walked to one side, leaving Lee Hwaseon standing in the dark.

"Sister!"

“Are you awake?”

Namgoong-yeon greeted Yeon Jeok-ha with her friendly face.

“I thought of a good number yesterday.”

“About what?”

Namgungyeon smiled and looked at Yeonjeokha.

It's to the point where I feel bored without him beside me.

“You set the mountain on fire.”

“what?”

“They insist that we didn’t start the fire. Then I think people will get confused and won’t be able to curse.”

“It’s a good idea.”

“What is missing?”

“People who want to curse at someone do so at the slightest possibility. So just because you confuse things doesn't mean that you won't be criticized.”

“Ah, is that so? I say no for no reason I did.”

“Well, it’s not a bad way, though. but."

"but?"

“If that happens over and over again, someday people around you will doubt your assertion, right? It was like that in the past, so it will be like that now.”

"So you're saying it's better not to lie?"

"yes."

"Hmm. Noklim becomes a fool if he can’t lie.”

“Then only lie when you are in the green forest.”

"uh? Will that work?”

Yeon Jeok-ha giggled as if he was having fun, and Namgung-yeon asked.

“How long are you planning to stay in the forest?”

“… … .”

Instead of answering the question, he glanced at Namgoongyeon's face.

She was talking as if she had to get out of the green forest someday.

Not many people consider greening as the end of their lives.

Most Nokrimdo want to go down the mountain and live like everyone else when they save money.

Poong Yeon-cho, Tak Go-myeong, Lee Cheol-san, Han Chae-yeon, and Ha So-baek were like that.

Even Gucheonno, who was green to the bone, and the dream of heartache were the masters of Giru.

“Does your sister hate me being in the green forest?”

“It is said that there are no gates in the great Dao [大道無門]. Green or not, I don't think that matters.”

“Then what is important?”

“Unwavering faith. hope for the future. and… … .”

Namgungyeon blurted out her words.

“And what?”

“Later, I’ll teach you later.”

Namgoongyeon's face turned red.

She looked at her face with a pair of possessed eyes, then quickly turned her head away.

A white cloud covered the blackened mountain.

The white clouds somehow resemble Namgoongyeon.
