“This little rat-like bastard is mocking me without knowing anything!”
Galgiryong raised his sword high in the air at Bunkitangcheonham. However, he couldn’t help but be shocked once more before he could bring it down.
“Why? Isn’t Bell confident?”
“You… … aren’t addicted!”
Clearly, it had been a long time since he should have been writhing in pain. Jang-seo couldn’t stop laughing, so he stood up from his seat, patted his knees.
“Aren’t you scared? Not only did you escape from Doraok, but you also harmed innocent believers within the church and even attacked the assistants.”
“Uh, how… … .”
“An old woman with a moldy hand and poorly applied makeup is spraying a perfume that is not even a perfume. How can she possibly not know that it is poison?”
“You knew from the beginning?! No, even if you knew, you wouldn’t be able to endure the double-headed poison because there’s no antidote.”
Of course. That is, unless Jang Yi-seo is the owner of Doksan-gak, who learned the Immortal Poison Magic.
Of course, there is no need to explain the long story of how to obtain the Mandokbulchim.
“I never thought that Lee Gongja would extend his influence to Doraok. You guys aren’t the only ones who have hidden cards. How many more are there?”
“You impudent bastard! I’ll tear you to pieces and throw you to Jangho’s fish food!”
Phew!
The galgiryong flew in, stabbing with his sword. At the same time, the second oldest sister, the old woman, also shot a large needle with her secret weapon.
In the past, it would have been a level that would have made me nervous, but not now.
After blocking the hole twice, he reached the intermediate level, and even mastered the ultimate poison, the Immortal Poison.
Now, even if it wasn’t a brain attack, it wasn’t something that anyone could easily look down on. Furthermore, his clear judgment and uncluttered movements were something that all martial artists should emulate.
I dodged the dragon’s sword by spinning around. And as the dragon passed by, the old woman’s needle was stuck in its chest.
In the meantime, Jang Seo-ga grabbed the needle and dodged the sword while stabbing it.
“Huh?!”
Bam. After a while, Galgiryong dropped his sword and began to tremble as if he had the chills. He was also sweating profusely as if he was suffering from a high fever.
It’s a double-edged sword. It wasn’t just Jang Il-seo who smelled the poison before, but the two of them as well.
“Ah, no… … !”
First, the bloodshot face of the first dragon rises and he falls to his knees. Jang-i-seo looks down at him with infinite coldness.
“Oh, brother!”
The second old woman, who realized the situation, ran towards them screaming. However, it was already too late.
Wheaaaaaa, thud!
The white lightning that flew in before her pierced her forehead.
An old woman falls backwards, unable to even close her eyes and dying.
with a plop!
The water sprayed up and blood pooled on the river.
Jang-seo grabbed the head of the trembling dragon from the pain that was about to follow and lifted it up, then tripped it and fell down.
“Huh!”
He then took out a dagger from his back and thrust it into his throat, saying:
“If you answer my questions, the pain of the double-headed poison will not come.”
“Hey, there’s an antidote! Please. Please give me the antidote!”
“Answer the question.”
When I responded coldly, Galgiryong swallowed hard and nodded.
“How many others besides you follow the scholar Lee Gongja in Doraok?”
“I don’t know the details. What I do know is that Doraok is… … Ugh!”
Poof! Before Galgiryong could finish his words, he vomited blood. Soon, the tip of the sword suddenly rose up, piercing his chest.
Fortunately, Jang escaped the attack by dodging to the side the moment his pupils shook.
And after a while.
Phew! Phew!
Once again, a spray of water rose up and another old man appeared, displaying flashy swordsmanship.
‘this!’
Jang Yiseo’s expression turned bewildered, and soon Nobu’s sword swiped past his side.
Crunch!
It happened in an instant. His skills are incomparable to those of the previous two.
“you…….”
The old man slowly turns around, shaking his sword.
It looks similar to Geomnossangsal, but is younger and has fierce eyes.
“You even dodge my sword. You didn’t survive by luck.”
His name is Galmuncheon.
The third surprise attack by the Swordsmen Ssangsal that can never be avoided by luck, and the real reason why Jo Yang-ak said he could not guarantee victory.
Yes, that’s right.
There were not two but three swordsmen!
* * *
Meanwhile, Jo Yang-ak left the stage for a moment and boarded a carriage.
Then, a servant waiting in the carriage hands him a bear cub.
It shouldn’t be like this, but if I don’t burn it at regular intervals, my stomach starts to feel itchy and it’s hard to bear.
Ugh, sigh.
Now I can finally live a little. Let’s take a breather. Suddenly, Suha asked me a question with a serious expression.
“Yes, sir.”
“Why are you doing that?”
“Why is it still unknown that the three siblings are the Geomno Ssangsal?”
“suddenly?”
“Yes, I was just curious.”
Have you ever seen such a worthless guy? Jo Yang-ak answered with a smirk.
“Isn’t that obvious? The third child already has nicknames that surpass those two. There’s no reason to shave my face and become the third child.”
“Is he famous?”
“Are you famous? Have you heard of the snake soul sword ghost?”
“If you’re talking about the Four Soul Sword Demon… … . Are you talking about the Four Soul Sword Demon from Gwangmyeong Cheonmadae?!”
The subordinate asks in surprise. At this, Jo Yang-ak snickers.
Gwangmyeong Cheonmadae (Light Heavenly Demon Squad).
As those who protect the Heavenly Demon Temple, they are forbidden from talking, let alone their daily lives, and everything is shrouded in secrecy.
However, one thing is certain: when those from Gwangmyeongcheonmadae appear, they always show incredible skill.
Galmuncheon was also one of those people.
He appeared without anyone knowing and became famous like a comet by single-handedly killing three of the Kunlun sect’s greatest disciples and an elder.
At that time, his nickname was ‘Sahongeomgwi’ because his swordsmanship was said to be like that of a snake.
It was only recently that Jo Yang-ak learned that he was the undefeated third son who had raised the name of Geomno Ssangsal.
“At this point, it seems like I really won’t be able to survive on luck.”
“If there’s anyone capable of defeating the Four Soul Sword Demon, I’d say he’s on the same level as me. But he’s just a guy who doesn’t even have a second chance. That’s absurd.”
“I see. Hahaha!”
“Yeah. So he’ll never come back today. He’ll sink to Jangho forever. Hehe. Well, if he’s actually a Kirin who inherited the progress of the Cheonwicheon masters, then that might be different.”
“Hahaha! That’s a bit too much of a joke.”
The laughter of Jo Yang-ak and his subordinates echoed harmoniously inside the carriage.
One, they know.
The fact that the current Jang Seo was created by the elders of the Jeongpa, the Heavenly Horse of the time, Jin Woo-gwang, the legend of the previous generation, Dok-ma, and the Noesin who could be said to be the pinnacle.
That he is truly a genius of this era, full of coincidences.
* * *
– Jangho (Lake Jangho).
“I didn’t know it would be three kills instead of just two.”
Jang Yi-seo smiled faintly and spoke in a playful tone. However, despite his light-hearted attitude, his mind was quickly going over the situation.
‘It was clearly not within reach… … .’
If the wound on his side had been just one inch deeper, it would have cut his internal organs. This means that it was two inches (6 cm) longer than expected.
Moreover, even though he had just come out of the water, his robe was not wet at all and was soft. This means that he was a master with great strength, capable of easily blowing away a sword.
“How amazing. Only those who have achieved invincibility against poison can be resistant to the two-headed poison.”
His knowledge was as profound as his skills, which seemed extraordinary.
Jang Yi-seo realized that he was a master who could not be shaken by clumsy words, so he hardened his expression and said.
“Judging by their appearance, they must have been family. But you don’t even care about their deaths.”
“You’ve only been doing things with your poor skills, so it’s only natural that you’ve survived until now.”
A truly strange relationship. And a truly strange man.
Unlike the previous two who were just frivolous, he seemed to have deep roots.
“It’s Galmuncheon. Others call me Sahongeomgwi.”
Galmuncheon… … I remember hearing about it. A swordsman from Gwangmyeongcheonmadae. As expected, he is the one who should be locked up in Doraok.
“Is it because they are blood relatives but not family that they don’t mix with the Black Knights?”
“I only looked after you according to my mother’s will. I never had any affection for you in the first place. And I would be even more so if you were a shallow guy who talks so carelessly.”
It’s about Doraok, Jang Yi-seo thought. His sword, which had not moved even when the old woman died, moved when the boatman opened his mouth.
In other words, his mission may not be a simple assassination, but rather a much more high-level mission.
for example…….
“Were you also acting as their watchdog?”
“… … !”
Galmuncheon’s eyes widened.
“You… … You weren’t lucky enough to become an assistant.”
If I had been that lucky, I would have rolled into the Demonic Cult. I would have lived a life of luxury in the Central Plains.
“No matter how much you are my family, you watched your family die and took your brother’s life. In other words, your job is not to take my life, but to shut their mouths first.”
“That’s amazing. Every single one of them is wrong.”
“hmm?”
“It was you, not me, who took my brother’s life. You probably didn’t have an antidote in the first place. In the end, your sweet promise to spare him the pain of the double-headed poison was actually a promise to cut off his life. Heh heh. Was the old man wrong?”
That’s wrong. Jang I-seo nodded calmly.
“That’s right. That’s what this place was like.”
“Kuuuuuu… … . That’s right. That’s the kind of place it is.”
“Judging from the way you’re reacting to Doraok, it doesn’t seem like it was sent by Jo Yang-ak. Who is your real superior?”
“This is… … .”
Galmuncheon quickly grabbed his sword. Then, he shouted, “Ppaa!”
“Is this a place where you can ask questions and get answers through words?”
Wedge!
A sword flying towards the Adam’s apple.
Jang Yi-seo jumped up high from his seat. If he evaded too quickly, he could suffer the same fate as before.
At this, Galmuncheon stopped and laughed loudly.
“There’s nowhere to run, so you’re thrown into the air. You’re smart, but lack experience!”
As he said, it is not easy to avoid something in the air because you cannot move freely.
He spread his sword as if he was swinging it towards the air. Then, it shot out, twisting left and right like a snake.
This is the identity of the target that Jang Seo thought he had avoided but was unable to.
It’s a soft sword!
If things continue like this, Jang Il-seo’s body will be the only one to be torn to pieces.
There was one thing that Galmuncheon didn’t know.
Jang Yi-seon is a stray dog from the lowest class of the Demonic Cult who has done everything.
It’s not just about being smart, it’s about being intelligent too.
『White Thunder』
Kwajik-!
A white dagger shot past the Galmuncheon River and fell into the boat.
Phew! Phew!
Then, debris from the broken ferry rose up along with the spray of water.
‘this……?!’
Suddenly, Galmuncheon’s expression turns bewildered as he loses his footing and his posture collapses.
Then Jang-seo fell down, cutting the dagger.
Crunch!
“Kwak-!”
Galmuncheon screams and falls into the water. Meanwhile, Jang-seo does a somersault, stepping on wooden debris like a flying squirrel.
And after ten steps he landed lightly on the debris that had fallen.
However, the expression on his face is not very good.
‘The depth was shallow. I’m not dead yet.’
I cut his chest but couldn’t cut his heart. As expected, Puhwaaaaah! Before long, Galmuncheon made a surprise attack with a water pillar right next to him.
Champ champ champ!
Four sword strikes occurred in an instant, and the two men’s close combat continued as they stepped on wooden planks floating on the water.
And Galmuncheon was inwardly astonished.
‘What on earth is this guy? This is definitely not the skill of someone who came from a wild dog family.’
