The Genius Youngest Disciple of the Wudang Sect

Chapter 217

I feel like I've finally figured out the question I had earlier.

Why the Evil Way Alliance suddenly popped out of the Baek-san Sect leader's mouth.

And what kind of ulterior motive they had to help the Yellow Sea Seven Tyrants.

"Junior brothers? Do you know that? Both of them lost to me."

"Go Mun-tak is a dreg who can't do anything right now, so I'll let that slide, but Dokgo Jugwak is a pretty good guy, so I was interested when you said you beat him. But now that I see you like this... I don't feel anything special."

"Really? I don't usually go around releasing my killing intent uselessly like you."

The Heuk-su Sect leader, with a small laugh, said to me, "That's a funny thing to say. But why is a Taoist of the Wudang Sect pretending to be an avenger of the Hwanho Sect? And with Maeng Gwang-gae at that."

"Before that, how did you know I was a Taoist of the Wudang Sect? I'm curious where you got that information."

"My junior brother who fought you before. Dokgo Jugwak is not only outstanding in his talent for martial arts, but he also has a talent for drawing as much as his martial arts. After fighting you, he drew your face several times and missed you. After seeing that drawing a few times, I was able to recognize your face at once."

"Sigh... just thinking about it gives me the creeps. Why do strange guys keep getting attached to me?"

In fact, just thinking about the Demon Flower Hall Master alone makes my head complicated, but thinking that Dokgo Jugwak is also like that made me feel even worse.

But I've been like that since a long time ago. I was strangely more popular with men than with women. Especially with my enemies.

"So. Why did you come today? To have a match? For your information, I've become much stronger than when I fought Dokgo Jugwak. I'm not at a level where I would lose to a martial artist who is just the leader of the Yellow Sea Seven Tyrants."

"Hehe... you're so good at saying cheeky things. Although I especially favor my junior brother Dokgo, his martial arts are no match for mine."

"Well, we'll know when we cross swords."

"But unfortunately, I didn't come here today to fight you."

"If you're not going to fight, why did you come all the way here and waste my time?"

"I came to make a proposal."

"A proposal?"

I frown without my realizing it.

Because I know well from experience that the proposals that guys who make proposals like that first are all ridiculous.

Especially if it's a guy like the current Heuk-su Sect leader who is arrogant and thinks he is stronger than me.

There is a high possibility that he will say something ridiculous like, 'I'll spare your life, so give up everything and leave,' thinking that it is a proposal.

"Persuade Maeng Gwang-gae to withdraw from the affairs of Zhejiang Province. Then we will also not have any interest in Shandong Province and the Hwangbo family."

"You want me to persuade Maeng Gwang-gae? Do you think that's even possible?"

"You are the one who is closest to Maeng Gwang-gae right now. If you say you will persuade him, our Heuk-su Sect will also publicly declare our withdrawal from the Yellow Sea Seven Tyrants."

"Then the Jin-cheon Guild has moved to another province, and the Heuk-su Sect is also withdrawing. And you killed the other five... so the Yellow Sea Seven Tyrants are completely dismantled?"

"Yes. It won't be a proposal that will be a loss to you. In the first place, your purpose is not to take over Zhejiang Province, but to help the Hwangbo family, isn't it?"

The Heuk-su Sect leader's proposal was more reasonable than I thought.

Although I don't know how long he will keep his promise, in the first place, he is saying that he will fulfill our purpose of coming to Zhejiang Province, so in return, we should acquiesce to them ruling Zhejiang Province.

In the first place, since the Nine Sects and One Gang did not interfere in Zhejiang Province, and the Yellow Sea Seven Tyrants were ruling it, from the perspective of the orthodox faction, it is just that the person in charge has changed, and there is not much else that has changed.

'But... I can't do that.'

But although it may seem that nothing has changed, in fact, the situation is very different.

Even dregs like the Yellow Sea Seven Tyrants try to advance to the surrounding areas when their power grows, but a single organization like the Evil Way Alliance will have that time come even faster.

In addition, the Evil Way Alliance are guys who will directly damage the orthodox martial world in the future.

Even without that, in a situation where I am worried about how to damage the Evil Way Alliance and prevent the atrocities they will commit later, to think that they are asking me to help them. I can never let that happen.

"I don't think so."

"What...? I thought I had presented a rather reasonable proposal."

"Reasonable or not, your name is the Evil Way Alliance. You claim to be an unorthodox faction. How can the orthodox faction just believe the proposal of you unorthodox faction guys and say they will do it?"

"Leaving aside the righteous and the evil, I promise you on my pride as a martial artist. I will never turn my eyes outside of Zhejiang Province..."

"So!"

I, cutting off the guy's words, immediately continued, "How can I believe the pride as a martial artist that you unorthodox faction guys are talking about?"

“……”

The Heuk-su Sect leader glares at me.

It is clear that his pride was cracked by my statement a little while ago.

It is clear that he is living his life thinking of himself as a martial artist-like martial artist.

But I cannot acknowledge them.

If you are a martial artist, you should value righteousness and chivalry more than your own interests or interests, but the guys only know themselves.

How much experience does the Heuk-su Sect leader have in helping the powerless?

"And you know it's actually very uncool to come to me like this, right? If you want to make such a proposal, you should go to Maeng Gwang-gae, not me. You came straight to me without even trying because you knew it wouldn't work on Maeng Gwang-gae, right?"

"You bastard... you've been itching to die since a while ago."

"No? Who in the world wants to die. You didn't go to Maeng Gwang-gae because you wanted to live, right? Because it's obvious that you would die without even being able to put up a fight if you attacked Maeng Gwang-gae."

"You bastard!"

The Heuk-su Sect leader, who had only shown a leisurely appearance until now, stood up from his seat and shouted.

In his hand, as if he had drawn it at some point, a sword was even held.

I, with a smile, said to him, "See. I knew you would come out like this in the end. Why did you try to solve it with words when it doesn't suit you, instead of coming out like this from the beginning?"

"Although I heard from my junior brother that you were a cheeky bastard, I didn't know you were this much. Since my junior brother asked me not to kill you, I had no intention of killing you, but even if I hear his resentment, I'll have to kill you today to feel better."

"Good. That's what I wanted. Because I also wanted to see how much I have improved. You said you were the senior brother of Dokgo Jugwak, but are you stronger than him?"

"O-Of course."

"Judging by the way you're stuttering, it seems you're weaker than Dokgo Jugwak. But stronger than a dreg like Go Mun-tak."

"No!"

"What do you mean, no. Anyway, follow me out. If we fight here, the surrounding things won't be left intact. There's no need to cause damage to the innkeeper, right?"

I, after saying that, opened the door and just came out.

Although I am showing my back to the Heuk-su Sect leader, I don't care.

Because I didn't think at all that he would ambush me from behind with his personality.

"Huh? Senior. Where are you going?"

On my way down to the first floor and to the entrance, I ran into Yeon-rang.

"Yes. Just in front of here."

"Who's behind you? I didn't take my eyes off you today, but I didn't see you go up."

"Just someone I know. You don't need to worry."

Yeon-rang, after answering that he understood my words, went back to wiping the table with a dishcloth, and I, along with the Heuk-su Sect leader, came out of the inn and moved to an open space nearby.

Unlike my leisurely expression, the Heuk-su Sect leader's expression is stiff.

I, to him, said in a low voice, "Shall we start? I don't think we need to drag it out."

"You're cheeky until the end."

"It's not cheeky, but I'm full of confidence. On my way here, I have grasped your qi and martial arts to some extent. Your gait, your breathing, the energy you are sheathing... considering everything, you are no match for me."

"Crazy talk."

"I'll have to kill you if we fight. So make your last choice. Either fight me and die, or give up Zhejiang Province and go back to the Evil Way Alliance."

He, instead of answering my words, answered by drawing the sword he had put back in his scabbard at his waist.

"So you're coming out like that in the end."

I also drew my sword.

It is the sword of An Hwi, which has become quite familiar to my hand now.

Every time I hold this sword, my heart aches.

In fact, this sword itself is an ordinary blue steel longsword that can be bought at a local blacksmith's shop.

But, the previous owner of this sword treated the sword very preciously.

He had carefully sharpened the blade, and he had also carefully wrapped a clean and good cloth around the hilt.

The scabbard was well-oiled with beeswax and oil, so the feeling of drawing the sword is also very good.

So when I hold this sword, I can even feel a warmth.

'Although the Jin-cheon Guild leader is left, if I kill the Heuk-su Sect leader, your revenge will be over, right?'

I, after speaking to the owner of the sword in my heart, took my stance.

There is no one watching, and I am planning to kill the opponent I am fighting anyway.

Even the guy already knows that I am Unhwi of the Wudang Sect.

It means that there is no need to use the Un family sword art to hide my identity, and it is okay to use the martial arts of the Wudang Sect.

I, without hesitation, extended my sword at him.

As if a lot of energy had suddenly rushed in at once, I feel a tingling sensation in both my hands.

The Heuk-su Sect leader lightly deflected my sword.

The disciple of the leader of the Evil Way Alliance, and the senior brother of the leader of the Four Tyrants Union. Although I said I would kill him easily, he is not an easy opponent.

A qi wave bursts out from his body. The true qi that had been extended for a moment strikes my body, and as if the air had suddenly changed, the Heuk-su Sect leader threw his body at me with a strong wind.

His attack is very fierce.

But, the mystery of our Wudang Sect is to overcome that strength with softness. The mystery of the Tai Chi Sword Art is unfolded as if I were breathing, and I, with a small amount of energy, deflect the guy's sword and return that force to the guy.

The Heuk-su Sect leader, as if he had grasped the energy I was shooting out, also shot out his energy forward, and the force that met in the air exploded.

Even in that explosion, I took about two steps forward, but the Heuk-su Sect leader retreated about five steps.

Because I had deflected most of the shock with the mystery of Tai Chi.

"N-No way! The level of martial arts I heard from my junior brother was not this much?!"

"That was me then. You can't compare me now to me then."

He begins to be noticeably flustered. He must have been thinking that he would be ahead in internal energy because of the difference in their ages. But it seemed he couldn't believe the fact that he was being pushed back.

I, stepping forward strongly, took a step.

The energy that had been shot out from the Yongcheon acupoint as if I were performing a lightness skill pushes my body forward.

As if I had moved too fast? At the moment I thought that a sharp sword wind was brushing past my body and face, I was able to reach right in front of the Heuk-su Sect leader.

The Heuk-su Sect leader probably thought I was using a ground-shrinking technique. Because I had reached right in front of him with just one step.

'Hyeon-cheon Sword Art’

A martial art flashes through my mind.

Although I had learned it from my master, it is the Hyeon-cheon Sword Art that I have not yet used in a real fight.

I raise my sword high up, and then I lightly draw it down.

Although it is a very simple movement, when I raised my sword up, the guy would have seen a black sky as my sword covered the sky.

The sword, which was struck down without mercy, started from the top of his head and split him in half, and I, before the Heuk-su Sect leader could spill blood, stepped back a few steps and, while looking at his collapsing body, turned around without any lingering attachment and, while walking to the inn, thought.

'I've definitely gotten stronger. At this rate, I think I can fight Dokgo Jugwak and not lose.'

For now, I have to go back to the inn quickly.

Because I have to report what just happened to Maeng Gwang-gae and ask him to take care of the aftermath.
