Chapter 71. The dragon follows the clouds, the tiger follows the wind (6)

Biho roared with all his might.

“Yeosan Jogajang never forgets favors!”

Those words were a warning to some.

It was a comfort to some.

And it was true.

It was a ceremony to strengthen the will before departure and a signal to begin.

With those words that would be talked about for a long time in the martial arts world, Biho jumped down from the watchtower and disappeared into the darkness behind the shadows of the burning stage.

Those who had been warned became busy. They were surprised by the unexpected intrusion of the enemy and could not help but think a lot. Could it be that he was not crazy and came alone? No. If so, what should they do?

Baek Gyu silently led all the able-bodied members of the escort warrior corps to Hoyeon Sang’s side. Since the size of the enemy was unknown, the priority was to take care of Hoyeon Sang’s safety.

At this time, the vice-minister of Cheong-eung-dang was also present, and he quickly exchanged messages with the first Maegwangja of Cheolsan Sagunja. The reason was that both of them had the authority to command the common warriors.

-Maker, I need to take the patrol party’s warriors and look outside the square. I need to figure out the size of the enemy…

-Okay, let’s do that. I’ll take care of the inside. I’ll search for any other intruders in addition to Jin Ga-yong and the one who just barged in.

-Okay. Then I wish you good luck.

If you pretend, it’s true.

Maegwangja was originally a leader of the Taihu clan that was competing for supremacy in Zhejiang Province, and he led the combat units on the front lines. It was said that in addition to his personal strength, he had the ability to lead an organization and an eye for the situation. That was why Hoyeonsang gave him and his sworn brothers the authority to command his private soldiers. And now, as soon as the vice-chairman of the Qingying party spoke, he immediately understood.

The leader of Cheong-eung-dang left with about sixty warriors. Then Mae-gwang-ja gave twenty warriors to the third national guardian and ordered them to remove the intruding Bi-ho and thoroughly search the square.

Thus, more than a hundred warriors who had surrounded Jin Ga-yong left the front line, and only about ten people remained. The curtain of humanity was lifted due to Bi-ho’s intrusion.

(*As an aside regarding numbers, when we first surrounded Jin Ga-yong, the number was close to one hundred and fifty. And the number of casualties suffered by Jin Ga-yong was over thirty.)

But the danger was not gone.

Still, the two monsters of the Buncheon Twins were pushing Jin Ga-yong. And now, the remaining Mae Gwang-ja and the fourth, Juk-jeong-ja, locked eyes. Up until now, they had only been watching, but now that the situation was becoming urgent, they were planning to join the fight. They were planning to finish him off in one breath with a joint attack.

“Are you going too?”

Yeo-Hwi nodded at Ho-Yeon-Sang’s question.

“That’s right. Since Chumyeon-dae’s chastity has been revealed, it would be polite for our Gapjo to also step forward.”

“Hmm, I won’t stop you if you want to go. However, I think it’s excessive to bring all of your crew members with you. Is Biho really that great?”

Well, I guess causing an avalanche is a talent?

“He has skills, but he also has bad luck. However, as the saying goes, ‘the one who ties the knot will unravel’, rather than being wary of him, I just want to cut off the bad relationship I couldn’t finish on the ice mountain.”

“Hmm.”

“Why are you anxious because your side is empty?”

The words of the woman were about the fact that Jang An Ilgeom Ma Sik, who had always followed her like a shadow, was currently not with Ho Yeon Sang. Just a moment ago, Ma Sik had left his post to handle a secret matter after receiving orders from Ho Yeon Sang. That was, he planned to take advantage of the chaos to assassinate one of the heads of the Sa Sa Bang clan.

“Hehehe, how could that be? I see. Since that’s what you’re feeling, then go quickly.”

Hoyeonsang shrugged his shoulders.

So, Yeo Hui went out to battle with Gongsun Xuewan and Dan Jin.

Thump thump.

Jin Ga-yong’s heart was pounding. He could suppress his emotions and accept the death that had been suffocating him calmly. However, it was difficult to control his wavering emotions when he came to him so suddenly.

“How stupid. What should I do… … .”

Jin Ga-yong rebuked him. He said it with his mouth, but the spark that had been flashing in his eyes became clear again. And the sword he used to meet his enemies became more lively.

But the situation was not easy. No, in fact, it was a situation that made me think of death.

At this time, Cheon-goe pushed Jin Ga-yong back while throwing out his strong and powerful palm techniques. He intended to suppress him with force so that he could not show off any skills. Of course, it consumed a lot of his internal energy. However, if he could handle it, there would be no better strategy. However, he could handle it. It was a case of eating the spirit fruit without knowing anything when he was young. It was because he met what is called a coincidence.

Jin Ga-yong knew that if he continued to push on like this, there would be no answer. That’s why he tried to dig in even if it meant making sacrifices.

But there was a monster. Whenever he felt that way, he would instead dig into Jin Ga-yong based on his excellent Kyungsin method. While doing so, he would raise his left index and middle fingers and poke the vital points. Sometimes he would snap his fingers and release a gust of wind. His finger power was the opposite of that of the monster, soft and sinister. Even if they made contact, they would flow through the meridians and try to eat away at his insides, so it was not easy to deal with.

So when Jin Ga-yong tried to fight the monster, the monster would fall out and the heavenly monster would jump out and unleash its usual long swordsmanship. The combination of these two was so perfect that Jin Ga-yong was pushed back repeatedly without being able to use even a single bit of strength. When he was pushed back like that, he finally came up with the word ‘Dong-gwi-eojin’.

However, Biho suddenly appeared out of nowhere and made Jin Ga-yong’s heart race. Also, at that moment, the first and fourth sons of the Cheolsan Four Gentlemen appeared, and judging by their looks, they were on the verge of departure.

Unfortunately… … .

A thought crossed my mind for a moment.

‘I thought it was okay, but you must have been lonely and empty. You’re so happy to see that child… … . Yes, let’s be satisfied now that we’ve seen it. That’s enough!’

In the next moment, the first swordsman swung his sword, shrouded in ink-colored smoke. It dug into Jin Ga-yong’s side.

At that very moment, the fourth dead man was preparing to jump in from the other side.

At this time, the monster confronted Jin Ga-yong from the front, and used all his strength to blast away a strong wind.

And Jigwoe returned to the rear of Jin Gayong and waited. He concentrated his power on his left thumb to make the final dot.

In this way, Jin Ga-yong faced four enemies from all sides at the same time!

Then, in the blink of an eye, at the point when everything was about to end, a variable occurred. In the middle of the square, at the stage, the flames that had been burning brightly suddenly exploded.

Bam!

In terms of the explosive power itself, it wasn’t enough to cover the plaza. It was just enough to blow up part of the stage and make it halfway down? Of course, it’s hard to find something with this level of firepower, but it seemed like it wasn’t enough to accomplish anything against a group called Sajabang.

If it were original, that is.

Hururur~

It exploded and flames shot up.

Fireballs flew in all directions, filling the sky with flying ash. Then they began to fall to the ground like a meteor shower.

It was because it was a dark night. As a result, the light and darkness of the heavens and earth were mixed up, and this scene was like hell unfolding in the human world. Although the direct damage from this explosion was minor, the visual effect was truly overwhelming.

It was especially enough to break some people’s concentration!

An explosion occurred as the monster simultaneously waved both of his palms. His palms trembled slightly in the wind, and the blast he unleashed contained only about half of the power he had intended to unleash.

pop-

The wind blew across the space of half a meter (1.5 meters) and hit Jin Ga-yong, and at that moment, Jin Ga-yong stretched out his left hand like lightning and released his strength.

It was a counterattack.

Originally, Jin Ga-yong’s intention was to avoid instant death, use his recoil to escape, and then strike once with the handful of life he gained. In other words, he intended to accept death, but extend it for a while and then strike the final blow.

But what is this?

Jin Ga-yong was thrown back and his arm was crushed in pain, but that was the end of it. Not only was he alive, but even though his senses were paralyzed, his left arm was still intact.

In the meantime, the ink-colored sword of the swordsman suddenly swung in and uselessly slashed at the spot where Jin Ga-yong had been staying, and Jukjeungja instinctively flinched at the explosion and missed the moment to jump in.

It was an opportunity!

Jin Ga-yong also saw the scene where the stage exploded and the sky turned into a sea of ​​fire. No, to be exact, the image was formed on his retina. But what can I do? So I received the information but held it back. Instead, I concentrated on not missing the opportunity that came. At that moment.

So this was not a realm of thought, but a realm of reaction and sensation.

Jin Ga-yong turned his body around as he was being bounced. And unlike everyone else, he lost focus and cut the monster that had his eyes taken away from the sky for a moment with his sword. Then he was pushed away and left the battle area.

Chook-

“Ahh!”

The one who was hit was the monster, but the one who screamed was the monster. The one whose head was cut off was unable to speak, and the shock and fear were directly transmitted to the twins.

And before the scream could even end, the sword flew through the air.

wedge-

Jin Ga-yong slipped away and turned around again, throwing his sword. This time, he did not even take the time to turn around and check his target, but moved quickly. Instead, the direction he threw his sword was where he was, where the light-sighted man was currently staying to attack him.

Push.

The tip of the sword flew past the swordsman’s left arm and protruded out on the other side. The swordsman, who was caught off guard, realized only then through the pain that surged through him that he had been hit.

Ugh… … .

This is what happened in an instant. In that instant, heaven and earth were covered, and life and death were reversed.

The heavenly monster cried out loud, and the earthly monster remained silent. The merchant collapsed, and the bamboo groaner roared in rage. And now he rushed at the empty-handed and exhausted Jin Ga-yong.

“Die!”

At that time, the world was thrown into chaos as fireballs that had filled the sky fell to the ground.

A fist-sized rock flew through the chaos with a whoosh, hitting the head of Jukjeungja, who was rushing forward in excitement.

puck!

“Uh… Huh?”

The man with the head blown off and about a third of his body was blown away, staggered around and fell down.

dump.

Even Jin Ga-yong looked back in puzzlement at the sudden situation, and then heard a sound from the direction where the stone had come flying from.

-The weather is nice.

-No way… Hyung-sook?

It was the voice of Hyeongwoo Saeng, the guest of Jogajang, who called his older brother, Opjeong Sanggunbo, and Dokgakho Somyeongrang and Biho, his younger brothers.

What the hell is going on here?

Jin Ga-yong thought that everyone had died on the day the Jo family was destroyed, so he was surprised and bewildered that he was still alive. Then, just as he was about to feel joy, Hyung Woo-saeng spoke urgently.

-Can we put aside the details and get moving right now?

Nod nod.

-Ahem, then please.

-yes?

Jin Ga-yong looked around and flinched. A friendly face was running towards him with an urgent look on its face. And behind him, dozens of warriors were following him, hurling curses and insults. Looking at him, it seemed that he was not an ordinary person, so he laughed in vain.

Perhaps, Jin Ga-yong wasn’t the only one who enjoyed the moment when the heavens and the earth turned upside down.
