Chapter 180. Ill-fated Relationship (5)
Early next morning.
We left Chuxiong and headed south.
After moving for a day and a half, we arrived near Mount Aenoe.
Climbing Mount Aenoe for a while.
Slash!
After dealing with a rushing wolf, the Dang Clan guy frowned and opened his mouth.
“To settle in such a place. It seems the things called Aenoe Sect are not sane either.”
It was as the Dang Clan guy said.
Mount Aenoe boasted steep terrain. Even from the middle of the mountain, something unknown whether fog or cloud was hanging, so the top wasn’t even visible properly.
As if that wasn’t enough, wild beasts popped out from all over the mountain frequently.
It seemed they didn’t clear the wild beasts on purpose to prevent outsiders from entering.
“Conversely speaking, doesn’t it mean they are confident in their martial arts enough to settle in such a place.”
At my words, the Dang Clan guy spat phlegm.
“Ptooey. Crazy bastards.”
The Dang Clan guy’s mood looked quite uncomfortable.
Even though poisonous snakes he liked popped out occasionally.
Nam Geon or the Junior Sisters also had fierce expressions.
It seemed to be because of that human sacrifice seen in Chuxiong.
Of course, my mood was also dirty.
Reducing words, we climbed the steep mountain path unfolding lightness arts incessantly.
Then after dealing with hungry wild beasts and poisonous snakes popping out occasionally a few times.
Around the time the surrounding vision became blurry as something unknown whether fog or cloud set in. A scripture entrance revealed itself up there.
In front of that gate, two young Taoists were frowning.
“This is the mountain gate of our Aenoe Sect.”
“We do not receive outsiders, so get lost.”
When I took a step toward the top, the guys made murderous expressions and grabbed their sword hilts.
Towards the guys who looked like they would draw swords immediately, I said.
“We came from Chuxiong.”
“Chuxiong?”
“Did the Elder entrust a letter or something?”
It seemed the leader Taoist bastard I threw into the water in Chuxiong was one of the Elders here.
Well, it wasn’t particularly important.
“Do you know they are performing a ritual to the Dragon King in Chuxiong?”
“Why are you babbling obvious words.”
“If there is a letter the Elder entrusted, hand it over quickly and return. If you don’t want to become wolf food.”
Towards the two young Taoist bastards exuding killing intent, I asked lastly.
“Even that they are offering a girl as a bride of the Dragon King?”
“……You. What is your purpose?”
“Looking at it, you don’t seem like a guy sent by the Elder.”
My head nodded automatically.
“You guys knew too.”
Then there was no reason to exchange questions and answers anymore.
Boom!!
The ground explodes and the body moves forward like an arrow.
The gap narrowed in an instant.
The surprised expressions of the two pseudo Taoist bastards who hurriedly drew swords are engraved in my eyes.
Ignoring them, I continued to run toward the top as is.
Sounds of pseudo Taoist bastards swinging swords belatedly are heard from behind my back.
Soon, a dull noise rang out.
Thud.
It was the sound of the heads of the Taoist bastards I already cut and passed falling on the ground.
I ran ignoring that sound.
From behind, sounds of companions hurriedly chasing me are heard.
Thump.
Before long, we arrived at the Aenoe Sect’s precinct.
Beyond the faintly spread fog. The gazes of Taoist bastards coming and going everywhere turned toward us all at once.
“Who are you guys!!”
“How did you enter here!!”
Ignoring them, I rushed toward the nearest guy.
Confirmation was finished.
The young Taoist bastards in Chuxiong were so, and the young Taoist bastards guarding the entrance here also knew the truth.
It meant they were all in cahoots.
Crunch!
After piercing the heart of the nearest guy, the guys drew weapons all at once.
“Enemy attack!!”
“How dare you attack the Great Aenoe Sect!!”
“Chase and kill the enemies!!”
The guys rushed in scattering killing intent.
Slash.
And in an instant, they poured out blood and sprawled on the ground.
Guys hit by needles secretly thrown by the Dang Clan guy foam blood and fall.
“Cough…….”
As if bewitched by Junior Sister Baek Hyang’s beautiful sword dance, bodies are cut off.
Slash!
Taoist bastards’ bodies explode at Nam Geon’s Mother’s Affection Sword.
Crunch!
There were also guys whose hearts were pierced by the secret killing sword of Junior Sister Choyeon who hid her appearance amidst the subtle fog before anyone knew.
In addition to that, the guys I killed.
Slash.
As about fifteen people died and sprawled in an instant, the confident Taoist bastards hesitated.
At that time, dozens of Taoists started rushing urgently from behind.
“Who are you guys!!!”
One of them shouted loading vigorous internal energy.
Dash!
That guy, unfolding quite usable lightness arts, ran in the lead and blocked our front in an instant.
It was a truly familiar face.
The face of this guy I remembered was that of an old man, but now he had the face of a middle-aged man.
Nevertheless, it wasn’t difficult to recognize.
After all, he was the guy who killed me.
For some reason, laughter flowed out.
“Hehehe.”
I extremely loathed the word fate.
Because it sounded like powerless people, talentless people just had to live suffering.
Trying to resist that damn fate, I lived acting like a total mad dog.
It was the same in this life.
I changed various fates doing my best in my own way.
The life of Junior Sister Baek Hyang who was fated to become the Lust Disaster.
The life of Nam Geon who would have grown up at the hands of a venomous adoptive mother and lived just doing as ordered.
The life of the Dang Clan guy who would have just lived alone stuck in a mountain.
The life of Junior Sister Choyeon who was scheduled to grow up as an assassin.
But the word I loathed felt welcome just for this moment.
“Jade Cloud Master. It seems you were fated to die by my hands.”
The future First Sword of Yunnan frowned.
“How do you know my Daoist name?”
It was a familiar expression.
Because the expression that guy made when he got stabbed by me while acting arrogant was like that.
“Ask King Yama!”
I unfolded lightness arts and rushed toward the guy as is.
A familiar trajectory is engraved in the air.
The sword technique that pushed me in the past life.
But not in this life.
I became incomparable to the past life.
Clang!!
Because that guy who became over thirty years younger was rather weaker.
We only exchanged three moves, but the guy’s posture collapsed.
Gaps were clearly visible all over the guy’s body.
The guy’s bewildered eyes.
Willingly, I thrust the Master’s Blade toward the guy’s heart.
Crunch!!
I pulled out the Master’s Blade that tore the heart apart.
Blood surges out.
Jade Cloud Master looked at me and his chest alternately with hollow eyes.
“How…… come…….”
“Why didn’t you live kindly then?”
The guy’s body trying to answer something slumped as is.
It was refreshing in its own way.
It wasn’t just because I killed the enemy of the past life.
It was closer to joy felt because I killed trash committing even human sacrifice.
Honestly, compared to when I killed Hyeok Ilso and took revenge for Brother Sama, it felt rather lacking.
Instead, regret was filling that vacancy.
If only I had known these guys were trash earlier.
If only I had visited here before the children were offered.
At that time, a rough shout was heard from the front.
“Youngest!!!”
An old Taoist whose hair, beard, and even eyebrows were all dyed white rushed as if flying.
People shouted toward that old man from the surroundings.
“Sect Leader!”
“The Sect Leader has come!!”
The old Taoist who stopped in front of me shouted with bloodshot eyes.
“How dare you! How dare you not only murder the disciples of this sect but also kill my youngest disciple and think you will be safe!!!”
Thinking it was rather for the best, I asked the Aenoe Sect Leader.
“Why did you deceive the people of Chuxiong and commit human sacrifice?”
“Just, just because of such a thing you killed my youngest disciple!”
As if there was no reason to converse anymore, the guy shouted with bloodshot eyes.
“What are you doing!! Kill all these intruders immediately!! No. Cut off their limbs and capture them alive! Until they beg to be killed. Slice off their skin until their screams reach that sky!!”
As soon as the crazy old Taoist’s shout ended, Aenoe Sect Taoists rushed in all at once.
There was no scared appearance like a moment ago.
They seemed to trust the skills of the old Taoists who came belatedly with the Sect Leader.
Trusting companions was the same for me too.
Since there was no conversation to share with that trash Sect Leader anyway, I willingly dug in toward the Sect Leader.
Narrowing distance.
At the same time, a familiar trajectory was drawn in the air.
“Right!! I will personally tear your limbs apart on behalf of the youngest!!”
It was the same sword technique Jade Cloud Master unfolded.
Funnily enough, the sword technique the Sect Leader unfolded was rather more familiar.
Because Jade Cloud Master’s sword technique a moment ago was shabbier than that of thirty years later.
It seemed in this era, that Sect Leader was the First Sword of the Aenoe Sect. No, maybe he was the First Sword of Yunnan.
Perhaps misunderstanding my sneer, the Sect Leader screamed.
“Let’s see how long you can smile!!”
The sword of the old Taoist who might be the First Sword of Yunnan was quite fierce.
If I had to compare, it was a level matching the Nine Dragons Fortress Leader or the three leaders.
Clang!!
Two swords wrapped in sword silk collide.
Age where even eyebrows turned white. The old Taoist’s internal energy accumulated while stuck in the mountain for decades was considerable.
Even though I picked up and ate spiritual elixirs three times, looking only at internal energy, that guy was superior.
And that was all.
The sword technique the guy unfolded was secret and sharp unlike a Taoist sect, but it was meaningless.
Because it was the last sword technique I saw in the past life and the sword technique that killed me.
It was the sword technique with the most vivid memory and the sword technique I reviewed most often since regressing.
Shing.
Flowing the sword the guy thrust, I unfolded Azure Heaven’s Hidden Smile at the same time.
Slash!
Faint blood flows riding the flank of the old Taoist who barely threw his body.
“Ugh. How do you know the White Cloud Life Severing Sword!”
Whether master or disciple, it seemed curiosity soared only when they were about to die.
“Ask the Dragon King you like so much.”
Digging into the guy again, I thrust the Master’s Blade.
The Sect Leader who barely blocked the blow shouted stepping backward.
“Wh, what are you doing! Stop this guy immediately!!”
For a guy who chattered about disciple’s revenge, it was a truly shabby appearance.
Unfortunately, there was no one approaching to help the guy.
Instead, what was heard from all directions were only screams and shouts.
The panicked guy turned his head like a moron.
“Th, this can’t be…….”
It seemed he witnessed the sight of disciples being slaughtered by my companions.
The panicked guy turns his head hurriedly.
Slash!
Soon, blood splattered along with a cutting sound.
Rough blood splatters riding the guy’s thigh.
“Eeek!!”
With a bloodshot face, the guy thrust his sword as if struggling.
Too familiar a trajectory.
I injected the energy rotating riding the Eight Extraordinary Meridians of the whole body into the Master’s Blade at once.
Trajectories of each other cross.
According to the realization of Painting the Moon on Still Water, the energy gathered at once flocked to one point.
Whirrrr.
The Master’s Blade spewed out a sword cry and strong Qi condensed riding the sword blade.
Along with a refreshing cutting sound, the guy’s sword is cut off.
Soon, a red trajectory was embroidered on the Sect Leader’s neck.
Slash.
The corpse with the head cut off sprawls.
Thud.
I looked down at the Sect Leader’s corpse sprawled while kneeling.
Various thoughts crossed.
The Aenoe Sect was deceiving the civilians of Yunnan and extorting wealth by committing human sacrifice.
If I had known this in advance and visited here first?
It would have been different.
Probably I would have died conversely.
Because when dealing with the Nine Dragons Fortress, I also used Hwangbo Ak, and thanks to the Dang Clan guy’s poison, I barely killed the Fortress Leader.
It was a funny thing.
Because I didn’t know the truth of the Aenoe Sect and was kidnapped by the Fighting Venerable, I could punish this guy.
Rather, because I postponed the revenge of the past life, I could make him pay the price for his sins in addition to revenge.
This situation felt like a prank of fate.
Turning my head, I looked northwest.
Then what happened to the Blood Disaster.
Did he already go crazy while I was trapped?
Or can he change his fate like my companions?
At the moment of recalling such a question, someone’s shout dug into my ears.
“Se, Sect Leader!!”
The Taoist bastards who confirmed the Sect Leader’s death started running away without looking back.
The Blood Disaster is the Blood Disaster, handling these guys was the priority for now.
