Chapter 71. The dragon follows the clouds, the tiger follows the wind (7)

Biho jumped down from the watchtower and into the shadow created by the burning stage.

Then, the nearby lion warriors rushed at him. However, those who were chasing Biho lost their bearings, and those who were trying to meet him in front ended up crossing paths. This was because Biho would repeatedly disappear in a flash and then suddenly appear on the other side.

Swish. Swish. Swish.

Biho passed by the enemies who were bewildered as if possessed by a ghost. Then he turned and ran to the center of the square, revealing himself suddenly under the bright lights.

Ta-da-dak.

“Over there!”

Dozens of warriors rushed in with someone’s shout.

But Biho ignored him and took out the bomb he had prepared from his bosom. Then he threw it at the burning stage.

Cheeeee… Kkwang!

Fireballs flew into the sky, and ash flew everywhere. In particular, the lights that illuminated objects were scattered in a mess.

“You’ll help me?”

“Okay. I’ll get you anything you want. Just tell me.”

“Then there’s a bomb too?”

“Huh? A bomb? Do you know that each one costs the price of a house?”

“Well, does that sound like something a little too much? Well then, that’s fine. Tch, I’m… … .”

“Ha~”

Someone who tried to make Biho look good ended up investing the price of a house. Just one grain. Money is money, but it is not something that can be easily obtained if you want it. Of course, according to someone’s complaints, that is the story.

So, whose nose should I stick this on?

So Biho thought. Originally, if there was not enough meat, he would boil it in water and fill his stomach with the water. And now he threw a bomb at the burning stage. It was a strategy to maximize the visual shock effect instead of giving up the killing power.

As Biho had expected, the explosion had a huge impact on all the lion-guard warriors in the square. The warriors who were rushing to catch him immediately all lost their minds. Some were flying around with their heads covered, some were hesitating in shock, and some were staggering after colliding with them. It was a mess.

Biho threw himself into the chaos. He greeted them warmly, saying that they had a hard time following him. Incidentally, this was right before Jin Ga-yong clashed with the enemies surrounding him on all sides.

Hung- Hung- Hung- Hung-

Biho advanced forward and swung his sword in all directions. He followed the tomb of Yuksisa-ro Fengshui-hwan, and then a fierce wind blew from the tip of Gwageum-do’s sword.

At the first step, all three of them spurted blood.

At the second step, four of them spurted blood.

On the third step, two more people spurted blood, and only then did the lion warrior who had been hit by Biho’s first sword slash cry out in pain.

This time difference was the time it took from the moment the stimulus was given until the reaction occurred. That was how fast the sword of Biho was. It was like a gust of wind, but it was also harsh.

It was a mad storm!

“Eww!”

As screams erupted one after another, Biho took his fourth and fifth steps, scattering the wind of death. Then, one of the groups rushing in collapsed.

Finally, Biho’s sword was blocked for the first time on the forty-second strike. Biho didn’t know it, but the man who blocked it was the third national guardian of the Cheolsan Four Gentlemen.

Kkakak-

For a moment, the sword and sword that were blocked were in tight balance, and the two glared at each other through their weapons. The national guardian’s eyes were fierce, while Biho’s were simply cold.

The next moment, Biho pulled back the national guardian’s sword and swung his sword in a flurry of slashes. He struck in all directions in one breath.

Window- window- window- window- window-

The national guardian quickly swung his sword and countered. He, too, was not an easy skill to master. However, Biho’s swordsmanship became heavier and heavier as he continued to swing his sword. As a result, the national guardian’s sword, which was desperate to keep up with the speed, was gradually pushed back.

Fuck!

The nationalist cursed and retreated. He wanted to subdue him in one breath, but it didn’t feel right. He knew that if he held on like this, he would suffer losses, so he retreated a step and raised his energy. Then he built a solid defensive posture and faced the incoming Biho.

… … ?

But Biho did not chase after the national guardian. As soon as the national guardian took a step back, he turned around and ran away. If it were just the two of them, there was no time to leisurely chat. Instead, he was busy moving his legs while stabbing the unruly ones who had not yet come to their senses.

Crunch, rustle.

The national hero chased after Biho, gritting his teeth as he did everything he could to get away.

“Catch that kid! Tie him up for a minute!”

At this time, the square was in utter chaos.

The fireballs that were falling from the sky had stopped, but instead it had become noticeably dark. The lights on the stage, which had been the biggest, had burst and dispersed, and even those were mostly dying out.

The darkness that Biho loved began to settle in the square as well.

And although the lion’s room was still overflowing with warriors, many of them were still unable to escape the aftermath of the explosion. They would have come to their senses by now, but there was a reason why it had come to this.

On the other side, Jin Ga-yong was wiping out the guests of Hoyeonsang, and on this side, Bi-ho was effectively attacking and causing a commotion. With the explosion, casualties were pouring out from all sides, so how could the atmosphere not be shaken?

Hyungwoo Saeng, who was also working hard in hiding, also played a big part. He started sniping at the same time as the explosion, targeting those around him who were giving orders, that is, the cadres at the level of the chief. In this way, he incited chaos while eating away at the power of the lion’s quarters.

suddenly.

The warrior who responded to the shout of the national guardian jumped out in front of Biho. Then, he cut with his sword without warning. Biho ran and countered with his sword. Then, what a coincidence, the sword he was holding, which wasn’t even a glass sword, burst out!

Wow~

It was also something I learned from an old man in Shandong.

Musa’s mouth opened wide, holding the sword with only the handle left, and Biho passed by after cutting down the opponent.

Crunch.

Musa fell down clutching his chest in surprise. A red line appeared from his chest and soon split apart. By then, Biho had already stepped out. And the busy footsteps chasing Biho were passing by the dead man.

Knock. Knock. Knock. Knock.

And then Biho and Jin Ga-yong met.

Jin Ga-yong looked blood-soaked and extremely exhausted. So he exuded a sense of danger and risk. He… no, she was burning herself up like this.

A ripple went through my chest.

“Captain Jin, are you okay?”

“So-so?”

Jin Ga-yong seemed to have something to say, but Bi-ho got to the point first because he was busy.

“Good. Then please take care of the back for a bit. In return… … .”

Whoosh.

Biho pulled out the long sword he was carrying on his back and threw it away. As soon as Jin Ga-yong picked it up, he realized that it was no ordinary sword that fit his hand well. It felt familiar? He looked at it with a curious look, and Biho passed him by and said.

“It’s a gift from someone. It’s telling you to cheer up, Jojang. So try to do your best.”

Annoyingly, Biho just said what he wanted to say and stepped back. Jin Ga-yong was momentarily overcome with joy, but then felt dumbfounded. Still, he turned his gaze as Biho had asked and looked around at the people Biho had brought with him. Then he pulled out his longsword from its scabbard and warned him.

“Stop.”

You might wonder what use such a warning would be in this chaos, but it really worked. Dozens of Sazaebang warriors stopped Jin Ga-yong’s horse in its tracks. It was as if it were a lie.

Why?

Because he was a swordsman.

If you think about it, it was simple logic.

Where are all those martial artists who used to applaud and mock him as a mere spectacle? What about those who attacked him in groups? What about those who were called elites? Where are even the high-ranking officials who used to go around acting like masters?

Where did everyone go and what did they do that left the author standing there alone?

Sword Ghost.

And the heaven outside the heaven.

These were the two words that came to mind as the Lion King warriors looked at Jin Ga-yong.

In other words, I was overwhelmed.

“Get out of the way, you ugly things.”

The national guardian stepped forward, pushing aside the hesitating subordinates. He frowned and urged Jin Ga-yong on.

“Why are you alone? Where is everyone else?”

Jin Ga-yong answered the national hero’s question while taking a step forward.

“If you’re curious, ask me directly. Where is this place?”

“here?”

The national hero had a hard time understanding the meaning of Jin Ga-yong’s answer. He didn’t have time to do so, as Jin Ga-yong was approaching. So instead of trying to figure out what the author was talking about, he straightened his sword, took a half-step back, and then gave orders to his subordinates around him.

-I will block and retreat, so you can take advantage of the gap to surround us and attack us.

-yes.

Of course, the national guardian also knew that Jin Ga-yong was not an easy opponent. He was one or two steps ahead of him? But right now, Jin Ga-yong was clearly exhausted. After all, what kind of person would he be if he was still sane after causing such a mess? Furthermore, just looking at the blood that was shed, he was a dragon… … !

At that moment, Jin Ga-yong came in, interrupting the national guardian’s thoughts.

Car window~

The scorpions screamed and threw sparks. One of them screamed so loud that it was thrown backwards, while the other one was stuck in the other’s nose and covered in blood.

Shiver shiver.

The national hero forcibly tilted his head back and looked at the night sky. Across the ash that was flying around, he could see stars that were like spots. Maybe it was just the dust in his eyes. Only then did his busy mind disappear and he had the time to calmly think and consider, and thus he was able to understand what Jin Ga-yong had just said.

‘So this is where I’ll be going soon. And if you have any questions, ask them yourself? Haa, that kid sent his brothers there too.’

It was just one move.

With just one move, Jin Ga-yong deflected his opponent’s sword with incredible swordsmanship and stabbed him to death!

It wasn’t because the national champion was clumsy. Rather, it was because he was strong in his own way, so he used up all his remaining internal energy. This was a different way of dealing with the enemy for similar reasons as Biho. When Biho sensed that the opponent was formidable, he didn’t fight him and ran away, but he solved the problem by taking the opponent’s life in one breath.

Because of this, Jin Ga-yong’s internal energy was depleted, and he temporarily felt dizzy and had difficulty standing. He was defenseless.

So how should we deal with the remaining enemies?

‘The annoying guy will do well on his own.’

As soon as Jin Ga-yong’s thoughts were over, Bi-ho, who had fallen behind, suddenly jumped out from the darkness on the other side and swung his sword wildly. It was at that exact moment that everyone froze in front of Jin Ga-yong’s spirit.

Hung- Hung- Hung- Hung-

At this time, Biho swung his sword like a demon, but at the same time shouted, opening a way for the enemies to survive.

“Get out of here. I will slaughter everyone who remains!”

Why would that be?

It was not that I was tolerant because I was tired of killing others. I had to open the floodgates so that they would not have any other thoughts and would flock there.

So, as intended, the lion’s men were scattered in all directions in panic. And Biho, without much effort, chased after the fleeing fish and swept them up. He said he would kill them if they didn’t run away, but he didn’t say he wouldn’t kill them if they did.
