Episode 328
“Matriarch! “We’re in big trouble!”
“What’s going on?”
“Allied forces are starting to move!”
“What! “Why are they already!”
“Music demons and other evil spirits are destroying the formation and clearing the way! It looks like Prince Simaun is leading them from the front!”
“Damn it.”
The face of Sima Seohwan, the head of the Sima family, was distorted.
He got up from his seat and walked around the office biting his nails.
In the end, what woulde woulde.
‘I thought there was still room.’
My head was pounding.
If they were going to move this quickly, why did they put so much effort into forming the siegework?
“No matter how much my son took the lead, these are not methods that can be easily dispelled. “If we deploy skilled people to interfere, it will not be easy toplete the ess road.”
“Who should I entrust themand to?”
“Sahon Daeju (死昏隊主). “Give him a smoker and a white snake.”
“Are you okay? “If you do it wrong, Ginger City’s existence may be discovered.”
“I didn’t think I could hide it forever anyway. I just wanted to dy that period as much as possible. If you put on a mask and limit your martial arts skills, you won’t be found out right away. As a bonus, it could cause confusion to the Allied Forces.”
“All right.”
Although it was perplexing, it was not an entirely hopeless situation.
It is said that a crisis is an opportunity.
In some ways, it seems like the Allied forces voluntarily jumped into a trap.
What if we could take advantage of the confusion and eliminate the Heavenly Dragon?
There would also be an opportunity for Samase to counterattack.
“And…”
Quaaaaaang!
Sima Xuhuan, who was about to continue giving instructions, opened his eyes wide at the explosion of sound that echoed throughout the family the next moment.
The noise was not from outside the outer wall.
I turned my head and looked out the window, and a shocking sight came into view.
‘Sayeonggak (司影閣)!’
Therge three-story building waspletely copsing.
I knew it intuitively.
The Allied forces’ drones had already infiltrated Sega’s interior.
‘How on earth!’
* * *
“Kwaaak!”
“What’s going on… Wow!”
“How did this happen! Why is the Heavenly Dragon here!”
I ran in a straight line toward Gajujeon, ruthlessly cutting down the Sega warriors who blocked my path.
King Hwang Bo-gak came out from the side and moved in sync.
Selected Allied military personnel followed.
‘That’s right.’
I couldn’t figure out how things had gotten so big.
A conversation I had with Damun a long time ago passed through my mind.
[Among the warriors who have registered with Sima Sei, are there any who are capable of being ranked among the world’s greatest masters?] [
No one.]
[If that’s the case, then Sima Se is no match for me.]
Of course, what he said at the time was just a bluff meant to make Dam Yun his subordinate. It was just a mixed joke.
Damun must have known that too.
However, it was also true that I thought that if I made up my mind and prepared properly, I could easily take down Sima Se.
Even though Sega enjoyed great movies in the past, it ultimately fell.
‘When on earth did Sima Sega’s power increase this much?’
As the Gaju battle got closer, experts from all over came out and attacked simultaneously.
They were not the ones who learned Sima Sega’s martial arts.
The members of the separate unit recognized their identities and issued a warning.
“Yujeonggeom!”
“be careful! It’s a Hakjin sword! “Just two years ago, he was famous as a 100-year-old expert!”
The sight of a Yujeong sword falling in a parabolic curve toward the separate unit was noticeable.
A swordsman with a reputation as the best swordsman of the Kunlun faction.
He was a man who proudly upied the top rank among the 100 great masters, and before the Great Demon War broke out, he was even called the Cheonghae Best Sword.
Even among the elite members of the special unit, there were not many strong men who couldpete with him one-on-one.
I took a big leap and broke away from the formation, muttering in my mind.
‘I feel sorry for the Taoists of the Kunlun Sect.’
There was no time to survive and subdue it.
It wasn’t such an easy opponent, and if we dyed here, the detachment could be isted.
I swung the sword in my hand and released a bunch of sword energy.
The 21st herbivorous month (敗月).
Quadddddd!
Yujeonggeom, swept away by the wave of sword energy, did a somersault andnded on the ground.
His clothes were in tatters, but he didn’t seem to have any major injuries as he had protected himself with self-defense equipment.
I rushed at him without giving him time to adjust my stance, swinging my sword filled with brain energy and putting strong pressure on him.
Okay! Awesome!
Heavy collision sounds rang out one after another.
It didn’t take long for the decision toe to a conclusion.
As he became a Jiangshi, Yu Jeong-geom’s capabilities were lower than before, but the fundamental difference in skill was greater than that.
The gap between those who have stepped into the realm of absolute perfection and those who have not was so wide that it cannot be ignored.
Quang!
Yoo Jeong-geom, pushed by a strong force, stumbled.
I didn’t miss the opportunity and nted my foot into his abdomen.
Pop!
An unpleasant sensation transmitted through the toes.
I destroyed my dantian so I could never use martial arts again.
The higher a martial artist has reached, the greater the recoil when he loses his danjeon.
If you were a master of the level of Yujeonggeom, there was a good chance that your internal energy would reflux and lead to death.
If you’re lucky, you might be able to save your life.
Creep!
The new form of Yujeonggeom, which bounced off, fell on the copsed wall and stopped moving.
Without any hesitation, I turned my back and returned to the lead of the separate team.
“Tsk.”
I nced to the side and saw Hwang Bo-gak shaking the blood off his hands as if he was displeased.
While I was fighting against Yujeonggeom, he also repelled the Jiangshi who were attacking the detachment.
Looking closely, it seemed like the current situation of having to attack a warrior with the same white sword felt very ufortable.
‘There isn’t much time. ‘A settlement must be reached as quickly as possible.’
There were only a few people who infiltrated Sima Family through a secret passage.
Therefore, the sess or failure of the operation depended on whether the detachment and the main unit could join together.
The detachment shakes things up from within, and the main unit,manded by Damun, lifts the formation and creates an entrance.
That was the gist of the operation.
‘Keep Sima Sega’s warriors in check to prevent them from interfering with the main force, and further break down the formation from within.’
Once the ess road waspleted and the main force poured into Sega, it was safe to say that the fight was virtually over.
If that happens, no matter how much Changgui and the White Bone Demon Emperore forward, they won’t be able to turn the situation around.
‘In other words, we can’t feel safe here until the ess road ispleted.’
The most ideal picture is to upy Jiajujeon and take Sima Xuhuan hostage.
Unfortunately, looking at the situation, it seemed like it would be difficult to get there.
The enemy’s resistance was stronger than expected.
As the fearless gangshi stepped forward, the warriors of the three families also gained courage and faced the detachment.
The fact that the number of intruders was not thatrge was one of the reasons why their morale did not drop.
‘Well, I expected this far.’
The reason I aimed for the Gaju match even though I knew it would happen like this was simple.
It was judged that the jiangshi who had be Sima Shigezu’s faithful servants would consider his safety a top priority in times of emergency.
“Seo Ho-seon and Sa Woo-yeon.”
“yes!”
“As I said before, I will leave the leadership of this group to you two.”
There was no need for all members of the detachment to move in response to the movements of the main unit.
The main force restrains the movements of the strongmen in the center of the Sega, while the rest escapes to the outskirts and leads the main force.
You might be wondering what was the point of splitting up the small number of people, but I wasn’t particrly worried.
Even if it was not the main force, it was never at a level that the Sima family’s warriors could handle.
To begin with, the Sima family was not a very great family if you look only at the military aspect.
Except for Gangsi, the average level of the remaining warriors was not very high.
“Sigh!”
It was a time when I was watching the members of this group moving away from the corner of my eye and pouring out the first attack of the Wolyeonggeom.
Something with heavy force fell on my head.
Feeling a sense of crisis, I kicked off the ground and jumped backwards.
The next moment, a man whose entire body was covered in iron armor fell straight into the spot where I had been a moment ago.
Kwaaaaang!
The ground caved in and there was a loud noise.
All the warriors who were engaged in a fierce battle turned to the source of the noise.
‘You finally arrived.’
Changgui.
The strongest ginger poem made using absolute coriander as an ingredient.
One of the biggest variables in this operation finally revealed itself in front of the party.
Teuong!
Changgui straightened his crouched back and struck the ground hard with the pole of his spear.
Then, the other strongmen all rushed towards Hwangbogak as if they had been waiting for them.
I caught my breath, brushed off the blood on my sword, and let out augh.
Isn’t the intention too tant?
‘Is this what you’re after?’
As if affirming my thoughts, the spearman narrowed the distance in an instant and aimed at my head with the sharp tip of the spear.
The de of a spear barely passes by the ball.
As if I had been waiting, I swung the sword I held with both hands and cut the opponent’s shoulder.
Crackle!
Instead of a clean cutting sound, an unpleasant friction sound rang out.
* * *
Boom!
Sima Xuhuan’s face was filled with astonishment.
The identity of the old man who roughly opened the door and entered the office was none other than the White Bone Demon Emperor.
Why did he show up here when he was supposed to be dealing with the Allied soldiers who had invaded the city?
“Sama Segaju.”
“Why did youe here! “I’m sure you want me to attack the Heavenly Dragon together with Changgui…”
“That’s absurd. “Why should I jump into limbo for you?”
“Isn’t it time to say something like that? If Sima Sega falls anyway, we will all die!”
“You lost your cool. Do you think there is hope even when you see the situation outside the window? “Sama Sega is already over.”
“There is still a chance!”
“No, there is no such thing as a possibility.”
“As you know, Demon Lord, the power possessed by Sima Sega is by no means inferior to that of the Allied Forces! Although they were caught off guard, they must be just as confused! “If only I could somehow block this attack…!”
“Behaving indecently should be limited to a certain extent. How long are you going to cling to a glimmer of hope and ignore reality?”
Sima Xuhuan’s face turned red at the mocking criticism.
He spoke in a suppressed voice as if he was chewing.
“Then, Demon Lord, please tell me how to ovee the current situation.”
“How to solve it? Could something like that exist? The situation has already reached this point. Instead, I know for sure what I should do in this situation.”
“…!”
Sima Seohwan, who unknowingly took a step back, took out an iron wire from his arms and held it in his hand.
I knew it instinctively.
What is the old man in front of me trying to do?
“It’s not possible!”
“It’s not you who decides what happens or doesn’t happen. Do you think you have the right to veto?”
Wrinkled palms quickly fill the field of vision.
At the same time that my eyes were covered, something thin was lightly tapping all over my body.
Sima Xuhuan felt all the strength in his whole body rx.
Tootuk.
The iron wire fell helplessly to the ground.
Sima Seju, who was held by the White Bone Demon Emperor’s side after being suppressed by his blood sword, cursed in his heart.
‘You crazy old man! ‘Let go! Let go!’
Because all of his blood and demonic blood were suppressed, he could neither struggle nor scream.
The White Bone Demon Emperor’s intentions were clear.
He sacrifices all of Sega’s Gasols to buy himself time to escape.
‘I realized it toote.’
There was despair on Sima Xuhuan’s face.
Why didn’t I think of it until now?
The task that the White Bone Demon Emperor was ordered by the Demon Lord was to monitor and control the individuals of the Sima Family, not the Sima Family.
From his perspective, it did not matter whether the Sima family copsed or not, or whether the family’s family members were massacred or not.
Teuong!
The White Bone Demon immediately opened his guard and headed to a secret space located underground.
