Chapter 193

The Roar of the Beast,
A single dao swiftly engulfed the golden commander, Li Bai.
The expanding dao force instantly became a gravity that Yi Er had to face, and his expression hardened. The moment he saw An Baek’s figure flicker across the corners of Yi’er’s eyes, Fang Gak’s eyes turned into a smug expression.
It’s done.
An Baek will kill Emperor Taemu,
The moment he does, the golden councils of the Great Cause, united in loyalty, will be scattered like grains of sand.
Then.
“Pfft.”
I could feel Li Keqiang’s expression as he couldn’t hold back the laughter that was leaking out. Fang Gak’s face contorted as if he was struggling to hold back his laughter.
“What is it?”
“Your fanciful imagination makes me laugh. This is why the Zhongyuan people say no. You think too much of my good things.”
As Yi Yun’s harsh voice rang out, Fang Gak’s sword struck Yi Yun’s armor.
Kwao!
The Dao of the Hebei Pangak is a weapon of immense power, as powerful as Huang Boshe’s innate divine power.
Even the armor he wore would not be able to counteract its power, as the Five Great Dao of the Fang Family’s non-seasonal season was also derived from it.
Seeing Yi’er’s body slump and slide, Fang Gak assumed that the force that had crushed his armor and penetrated it must have suffocated him.
Nevertheless.
“I just told you, and seeing that you still don’t understand, you don’t even have the ability to comprehend. know that. Soldiers like us don’t make vague claims of strength like you do.”
Fang Gak’s expression hardened at the words.
“Do you understand?”
Straightening his posture, Yi Yun slowly rose to his feet, straightened his shoulders, and grabbed his spear, and Fang Gak could feel a sense of invisible power wash over him.
Huwaaaaah!
At the same time, the spears that had been spinning like windmills once again rushed forward, but at a different speed.
Fang Gak was forced to bite his lower lip, forcing his body to remain motionless in the face of the intimidation.
Kwaaang!
Fang Gak barely managed to strike out with his drawing, not his blade. The pressure, the crushing pressure, was beyond his imagination.
Kwajik!
Fang Gak had to let out an involuntary groan as something slammed into his thigh while he was parrying the spear tip.
“Ouch.”
At that moment, the tip of the spear pierced his eye, and Fang Gak quickly spun his upper body backwards in a swift motion, only to feel something slamming into his abdomen again, making him wince at the impact.
“……Zhongyuan’s martial arts have no weight.”
Pfft, pfft, pfft, pfft!
The swift, air-piercing point of the spear dazzled Fang Gak’s eyes. He couldn’t question it, but he had to act on instinct, or his whole body would go limp.
“There’s a middle ground, whatever that is. What’s the harm in fighting among your own people? I have to face them on the battlefield, through a rain of hundreds of arrows and a forest of thousands of swords, back and forth across the warpath, never knowing when the blind sword will strike.”
With the title of Commander of the Golden Weapon, Yi Bei has more experience and skill than any other martial artist in the Zhongyuan. Pangak should have felt his astonishing prowess, recognized by Emperor Taemu early on, dodging his spears, feeling the growing wounds and other impacts that came with the unseen thud of a blow, sending shivers through his body.
But Pangak gritted his teeth.
Just a little longer. The moment An Baek slashes at Tai Muze’s throat, it will all be over.
“You think you can hold on a little longer. Ignorance is what keeps you going, huh?”
With those words, Fang Gak sees a sight.
It was An Bai.
Wherever he turned, he saw An Baek’s sword break in a single blow and the nape of An Baek’s neck twisted in Tai Mu’s left hand.
Not only that, but he felt his chest being sliced open.
Puquaaaaaaa!
A fountain of blood rushed out, and he fell on his stomach.
Kwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahh …
Once again, I could see the ten Gold Councilors sacrificing themselves behind the iron gate, throwing themselves at the wall with wall bombs.
It was literally taking away all hope from the group.
* * *
“Jutaehwa.”
“Speak.”
Huang Tianhao looked at Zhu Taehua, who was still trapped, listening to the explosions on all sides and doing nothing.
“What’s going on right now.”
“What do you want to know, just stay still, watch the good stuff, and eat rice cakes.”
“……now you.”
“Cleaning. Cleaning.”
Cleaning.
What does that mean right now?
“It’s too messy right now. No such thing.”
“What do you mean!”
Zhu Tiehua clicked his tongue at Huang Tianhou’s outburst.
“This is why I tried not to say anything, but you’re such a nag.”
“Speak up!”
Zhu Taihua clicked her tongue and looked at Huang Tianhou’s captive form. Judging from the binge drinking that had already begun, Tai Mu’s plan had been carried out.
Now that there was no turning back, Zhu Taihua opened his mouth.
“Literally. Clean up. We’re going to wipe out all the cockroaches that threaten our greatness and start fresh.”
Huang Tianhou felt his heart sink at those words.
Sweeping away all those who threatened the cause.
“……You mean the wall bomb?”
“That’s right. Why would they not use such a good weapon?”
“Because how many of them are there…….”
Unless it’s already absolutely banned.
It was up to the Grand Master to stop it himself.
However.
“Perhaps the wall bombs in Daemyung’s arsenal can blow up an entire region, all at the behest of the Heavenly Emperor.”
With those words, Huang Tianhou felt that things were going wrong beyond his imagination.
At that moment.
Kwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahh …
A booming sound that could have rattled the prison that Huang Tianhou was in was heard again.
* * *
Once again, the explosion erupted, and the flames swept up the approaching Popular Chuck from behind.
The loyalty of the golden councilors’ deaths to the Tai Mu Emperor was understandable.
Their families, built on loyalty, would be able to play and eat for the rest of their lives. That’s the way the world works, isn’t it?
“Mmph.”
Nuzzling the nape of An Baek’s neck, Tai Muze felt languid in that moment. The ambition, the curiosity, all of it was there, but that was it.
No more excitement.
No more excitement, no more desperation.
I realized that he was just a strong human being.
So much for playing with Zhu Tae-hwa and the Red Army.
So much for the Zhongyuan people coming to the Huang family to trample on his authority.
After all this, what would he have to entertain himself with?
“How could I let you down like this?”
He had expected a strike force from a group called the Martial Blind, including a swordsman who had tracked down the wall bomb and gotten to this point by penetrating his mind to subdue Zhong Yuan.
“It’s just like this,” he thought to himself, ”to be called the Sword King of Zhongyuan is to be called someone who is quite famous for his sword.”
My heart sank. For nothing.
Then, An Baek’s shrunken pupils gradually returned, focusing against his will, and he smiled.
Tae Moo Jae’s eyes widen at the sight of that smile.
He suddenly smiles when everything is already over.
What a trick.
He’s trying to catch her off guard.
No, it’s not that shallow.
And I’m not the kind of person to let myself get caught off guard with such shallow water.
Curiosity got the better of you, and you realized that the swordsman’s eyes were strangely distorted.
It wasn’t directed at him.
And he could feel it, the popularity of the place that had been swept away by the storm of fire that had melted and burst open the iron gate that had held it like a mountain of iron.
As soon as he sensed a hummingbird walking toward him, he knew.
Flash!
Something flew toward the wrist that held the swordsman by the scruff of the neck, and instinctively, Tai Muze released his grip and recovered.
Kwagaga-kwagaga!
A streak of sword power sliced through the air.
It was a sharp point that would have sliced through even the most defenseless of men, and Taemuje had to smile at the corner of his mouth.
This time, it was for real.
“Blood Demon ……!”
At the same time, Tai Muze’s dazed eyes flashed open.
The voice of a young man who recognized his identity,
The moment he saw the young man’s aura, he couldn’t help but widen his eyes.
Fire Demon.
The aura that had exploded with dozens of wall bombs, more than a dozen of them, and wanted to kill them all.
At the same time, the aura that was about to burst out in all directions at once, sizzling in the arms of the young man who had ordered the Erim army to clear the way and trap them behind him, thwarting Tai Muze’s plan to make them all disappear in one fell swoop.
“……It can’t be.”
“Yes, that’s what you thought.”
The young man’s whole body twitched. The explosive force of the fire was wrapped around his entire body, as if it would explode at any moment. If he tries anything, not only will he explode, but he will vanish without a trace.
The young man compressed the energy with both hands, not squeezing it, but enclosing it like a ball, keeping it from bursting under the pressure.
“But how can I do this, if I throw it at you, everyone here will be gone, even you.”
Tai Muze’s easy smile widened. True to his word, that aura is no longer just a few wall bolts.
It will kill him, and perhaps everyone else in this palace. I wonder if I can do it.
Taemu shook his head. At least, that’s what he could tell when he met the young man’s eyes.
And then.
“……Now!”
“I see.”
The four men behind the young man like shadows spread out in all directions.
One grabbed An Baek by the back of his head and threw him toward the iron bloodbath, one simultaneously rushed in front of him with the Unyielding Sword, one blocked Fang Gak’s path and grabbed Yi Yun’s body and threw him toward Ta Mu, and finally, one threw the four jade stones in Ta Mu’s arms in all directions.
…Yunhoe Reverse Reasoning.
The words of a man dressed in a courtier’s robes, and an aura that arrived in front of Tai Muze.
It was the aura of a fire demon that enveloped the young man.
“You will be trapped in that place and fight against that fire demon forever.”
As he spoke, he activated the Reincarnation Reversal Jin.
And with that, the vanished Tai Muzei, Li Bian, and dozens of wall bombs exploded, dissipating the enveloping flame aura.
