Chapter 52

“How are you feeling?”
“I’m fine. An Daehyeop.”
“You’re fighting ……in a woman’s body.”
“I’m not a man of the Southern Palace, I’m also fighting in the name of the Southern Palace.”
At Yumimi’s words, An Baek shook his head, lost for words, as her words made him feel small.
“So, please, let go of the pressure that you’re carrying.”
“But…….”
“I’m sorry.”
An Baek stammered, but her words made him snap out of it.
“I’m sorry for causing you to worry about me so much. I’ll be careful in the future, so please put down the burden in your heart.”
It was the first thing I wanted to say. I wanted her to be careful, and I was worried about her. Her words somehow relaxed Anbaek, and he couldn’t help but smile.
“……She was right.”
He didn’t want to admit it, but he had to. What kind of mindset he was looking at her with.
“What do you mean?”
I’ll reveal my heart here and now and win her heart.
And I will keep her by my side for the rest of my life, An Baek resolved.
“I’m the nanny…… No, I’m Yu Su Su…….”
He interrupted.
“How come you don’t see the Grand Duke?”
“……?”
“Come to think of it, I can’t see where you’ve gone.”
An Baek’s shoulders sagged. He suddenly wondered why he was talking in this atmosphere.
“I went to …… for work.”
“Really? By yourself, the Grand Duke?”
“I left him alone, but now he’s in my way.”
Anbaek’s voice was soft and inarticulate. Yumimi smiled wryly at that, then shook her head.
“That’s because you’re a big man.”
“…….”
“Thank you, always. Daehyup Ahn.”
“……No.”
“But you know you still have a long way to go. I’m not only your nanny, I’m also the one who watches over you the closest.”
“I see.”
“The Grand Duke’s well-being is also my well-being, or else I’d have my own worries and concerns.”
An Baek’s heart sank at those words. It sounded as if she was telling him to go visit the Grand Duke right now. The story sounded like a congratulatory decree, and An Baek couldn’t help but turn away, saying that he would have to go.
A bump.
Just as he was about to open the door and leave.
“……I’d like to come and walk with you.”
The faint voice made Ahn Baek’s body jump.
As fast as possible.
Faster than anyone.
I’m going to go.
* * *
Kwaang!
An Baek’s sweeping sword slash knocked Huang Bo Gyum’s new sword backwards. It was a sword that had been around for more than a few decades.
Its power was incomparable, and each of its seemingly simple sword strikes pierced through Huang Bo’s wall of strength.
Kwagagagagang!
Even the self-defense Qi was unreliable, and Huang Bo Gyum twisted his entire body to avoid being fatally wounded, and forced his fists together.
“……are you so afraid?”
An Bai’s cold eyes swept across Huang Bo Gong.
“The dark clouds that this child will bring, Huang Bo Family.”
“I remembered, a kid who was only fifteen won the sword tournament.”
Huang Bo Gyum drew in a deep breath and straightened his back. His knees bent, he lowered his stance and straightened his back, similar to the way Bum did before he started to close the door.
“And now he’s taking my fist. It doesn’t make sense. I’m the fist of the mighty Huang Bo Gyeom.”
Boom!
Huang Bo Gao’s two fists slammed into An Bai’s sword face. The explosive sound vibrated through the air, and the shockwave caused the surrounding rocks to instantly turn into powder and scatter.
Huang Boqiong of the Nascent Soul Realm.
An Bai’s heart sank at the familiarity of the name, even though he had never met him before.
“It’s a pity that the Huang Bo family’s attitude is so low.”
“No, it’s not. It’s not Huang Bo Sega, it’s me, Huang Bo Geng.”
“……Gengha, let’s make a pun.”
Hearing An Baek’s words, Huang Bo Gyum smiled self-helpfully. Ahn’s honesty made him smile.
“It seems to me, Iron Blood Sword Sheng, that you don’t realize the potential of this child.”
“…….”
“I want Huang Bo to be the best. I want him to be the best in the White Sword before we talk about the Black Sword, and I want him to be the best in Gu Feifang and the Six Dynasties before we talk about the White Sword.”
“You dream big.”
Even so, it was not an unreasonable dream. Huang Bo was one of the most powerful families in the Six Great Families.
But as if that wasn’t enough, Huang Bo shook his head.
“I know that there are certain families that I must defeat before anyone else in order to become the top of the Six Great Families, but in this era, I have lost.”
It was obvious to anyone who heard the words to whom they referred.
The Chang Tian Divine Sword, the Southern Bow.
It was the first name that came up when discussing the Southern Palace.
Huang Bo Geng shook his head as he discussed the Southern Palace.
“For the next era that we will inherit, I want Huang Bo to be the best.”
Seeing the unexpected desire in Huang Bo Gyeom’s eyes, An Baek’s heart skipped a beat.
“……Ten thousand gold coins, that can’t be it.”
“Money can buy talent.”
“What are you talking about?”
It was a story full of energy. Money can buy talent.
An Baek clenched his teeth as he questioned Hwang Bo-gyeom, who had said something he couldn’t understand at the moment.
“I’ve invested to make even the smallest talents belong to the Huang family for the next generation.”
……So it was.
Huang Bao Family was already looking toward the next era.
Whether it was wrong or not.
Huang Boga was doing it because he thought it was right.
“For the next era, and the future we are creating, the future is quite bright, for I have seen a child named Fang Xiang of Hebei Fang Family. The girl that Ho Tao cares so much for.”
It was the girl, the niece of Fang Xiang from the sword circle.
The Fang Gak she knew would never take on a disciple. He held her to a higher and stricter standard than himself.
“I was surprised. You should have known, Swordsman, that a Hebei Master who refused to take disciples would not accept them just because they were his nephew. He was certainly outstanding, but we had enough people of equal talent, so we weren’t worried. Until today.”
An Baek’s gaze caught sight of Huang Bo Gyum staring at him. It was the Grand Duke, the Southern Palace, sleeping like a dead man.
“I dare not compare, for it is like a firefly before the sun.”
The nervousness and anxiety in Huang Bo Gyum’s eyes as he tossed and turned was unexpected even for An Baek. That’s how much potential this child had.
Hana thought it was because Hwang Bo-gyeom had seen growth that she hadn’t seen herself.
“So I vowed that I must see blood today.” ……
“Do you still feel the same way, even in front of me?”
I added a footnote to warn him not to think foolishly. Even Hwang Bo Gyum is a man beneath An Baek.
“You may want to use your power to kill me, but you won’t be able to, because the more you try to kill me, the more relentlessly I will try to kill you.”
He didn’t want to let him live, but if Huang Bo Gyum made up his mind and bided his time, his nephew’s condition would get worse and worse.
He had to get back as soon as possible. Huang Bo Gum’s eyes lit up as if he could read An Baek’s anxiety.
“I’ve already heard that An Bai’s iron-blooded sword prowess, even when he fought against the Chang Tian Divine Sword, he didn’t back down an inch.”
“The Celestial Divine Sword. I’m not happy. There’s no need to compare.”
“That’s why I’ve always been prepared.”
Something slipped out of Huang Bo Gyum’s arms. It was a whistle.
“……!”
“Prepare to catch the big fish.”
Beep, beep, beep.
The sound of the whistle spreads out in all directions. The echoes pierced through the sheer cliffs.
Soon enough.
Countless other whistles blow at the same time. There were at least dozens of them, and there were at least three more that were comparable in strength to Huang Boqiong.
Moreover, twenty men, armored with pauldrons and armed with the strength of sharpened blades, surrounded An Bai, the fallen Grand Duke, the Yangsan clan, and the bandits on all sides.
“……The current power of the Southern Palace, and the future of the next era, are destroyed here today.”
At Huang Bo Geng’s words, the twenty-four killing intentions began to stir.
* * *
“Hmph, hmph!”
Yang Yangfa ran hard through the forest, watching the condition of the young man on his back. His breathing was getting fainter and fainter.
He couldn’t believe that the young man, who had survived dozens of blows from Huang Bao’s monster, was dying like this.
Then, when his steps slowed down even a little bit.
“……Run without thinking. I’ll protect you.”
I heard a muffled voice. It was new and invisible, but Yang Yangfa believed it.
Every time he closed his eyes tightly and ran forward.
Boom!
The explosive impact toppled a tree.
Thud!
The arm of a pistol-wielding man was smashed into thin air.
Puff, puff, puff!
The noise of a blade slicing through dozens of cloaks.
The blade hit Yang Yangfa’s eardrums, but he didn’t care. There was nothing he could do but trust the words of the Iron-Blooded Sword An Bai and run.
He could only hope that the young man he was carrying would make it out of here alive.
“It’s useless, Sword Sheng, no matter how strong you are, you won’t be able to protect the child against twenty Wall Power Sect members and the four of us.”
As soon as the voice of the Netherworld Huang Bo Geng sounded out, a thunderous sound tore through the air.
At the same time.
The first move of the Immortal Sword Technique, the I Am Nothing.
The wind-splitting sounds erupted simultaneously, slicing through the air like thunder.
Kwagagagagang!
The two great powers clashed in the air, and Yang Yangfa was forced to summon all of his weak internal strength to correct Xin Xing, who was nearly blown away by the impact.
Will we survive?
Each time that belief shrank in size.
“I’m not dying. And he won’t die either.”
A single voice energized Shi Yan’s spirit.
The iron-blooded An Bai’s entire body was already covered in blood. His hair was in disarray, his clothes were torn here and there, and he was covered in bruises.
Nevertheless, his gaze was still burning.
“……I want to come and walk with you.”
Her voice sounded vivid.
And then.
“Get some sleep. It will be over when you wake up. ”
I can’t be an ugly uncle to my nephew.
