Chapter 35

Thud!
Xin Liuquan’s fall.
The masked man’s wrist is broken.
He’s about to deliver the decisive blow to the retreating masked man.
Piying!
You’re thrown backward into the hole.
Swoosh!
A sword sliced through his sleeve.
I looked around and saw that the martial artists at the gunblade gate had continued to pounce on the masked men like moths to a flame, knocking two of them down.
The masked man who’d thrown the sword at me threw a katana at his opponent, knocking him down, and then ran toward me.
He was fast.
But I was confident I wouldn’t be outmatched.
I stomped my feet and caught up with the masked man as he ran backwards.
“Haat!”
Squeak!
He stabbed his sword into the ground and spun around, blowing the masked man’s life away.
Bing-bang-bang.
Three swords flew past where I was standing.
I drew my sword and lunged at the masked man who had thrown the sword.
I advanced, cutting off the masked man’s memorization with my plum blade.
“Hot!”
Four seconds with the plum blossom sword, plum blossom blood.
The plum blossoms engulfed the masked man.
One by one, the plum blossoms sprouted from the tip of the sword tip and pierced into the masked man’s body, splattering red blood.
Leaving the masked man with plum sigils on his limbs and neck, he launched himself at the others.
Soon, the masked men were down to five.
The one on the far left beckoned to the two masked men.
The two masked men nodded and lunged at me.
Apparently, they felt I was more dangerous than the drones at the checkpoint.
Two people.
Dangerous, but doing the best they can.
The two masked men pass.
I thrust my sword down, one aiming for the bottom, one aiming for the top.
I raise my sword and slash vertically.
Kagagak!
I blocked both swords, stepped forward, and slashed downward.
Ground!
The masked man blocked the sword with a dizzying flurry of blows.
I struck the hilt of my sword and the masked man’s sword stopped.
He tried to take advantage of the opening and thrust down, but the other masked man thrust his sword out, so he took a step back and blocked it.
Kaang!
I deflected the sword and stepped back.
The two masked men lunged at me.
“Left, single strike.
I swung my sword to the left and made several short, cutting strikes.
Ta-da-da-da!
I cut off their attack.
Chuck.
I put the hilt of my sword against the hilt of the sword thrusting toward my throat.
I spin my sword backward half a turn, and the masked man’s body follows it into the air.
This is a draw.
I slashed diagonally from the lower left.
Squeak!
The masked man’s eyes went lifeless.
One is finished.
The other masked man lunged.
‘My left foot stops on this beam in front of me, and then…….’
I could clearly see the masked man’s movements.
He stepped forward, turned his right foot to the right, and bowed his head.
Evil!
The masked man’s sword sliced through a few strands of hair.
Along with it, a heavy feeling on my right ankle.
It was the cloaked man’s foot.
As the masked man lost his center and fell, I slashed horizontally.
Swoosh!
The masked man’s upper and lower body split in two.
“Thud!”
Before I could bask in the afterglow of victory, something sinister approached from behind.
He spun around and defended his memorization.
Ground! Ground! Tadadang!
Soon, there were only two of them left.
He lunged at the masked man who had thrown the rote.
The masked man’s eyes narrowed.
“Ha!”
Kaang!
Sparks flew as their swords clashed.
Chop, chop, chop, chop!
One, five, ten…… twenty-one, and the masked man’s sword path was disrupted.
Right ribs.
He plunged his sword into the gap.
‘Wicked!
“Shallow!
The masked man twisted his body in an instant.
The masked man plunged his sword into my panicked shoulder.
Poof!
“Ouch!”
A searing pain like being on fire.
Red blood spattered.
Through the gap, the masked man pulled out his secret weapon and stabbed at my throat.
Strength drained from my right hand.
The sword falling.
I kicked up with my left foot, blocking the masked man’s view, and drew my sword with my left hand.
Cuuuuu!
The masked man’s eyes widened in surprise.
You broke his armor and inflicted a large sword wound on his chest.
The life drained from the masked man’s eyes.
Kung!
“Whoooo…… Kwak…….”
Twin Swords.
It was an improvisation because the masked man was surprised.
If I hadn’t been surprised, I would have been the one to die.
“Ugh…….”
The intense pain in my shoulder continued.
I dropped to the ground and checked my blood pressure.
Tada, tada, tada!
The blood had stopped.
I roughly tourniqueted the wound and lunged at the other masked man.
“Ouch!”
The pain in my shoulder was relentless.
I couldn’t move as the pain radiated through my body.
It was a serious internal wound.
As soon as the wound was opened, it quickly got worse.
To be honest, it was a wonder that I won against five masked people.
It was so strange that even I couldn’t understand how a body like this could defeat five masked people with such an unremarkable appearance.
“Huh.”
The other masked man didn’t need to worry, as he was being dealt with by the martial artists at the gun checkpoint.
He felt dizzy at the thought that he was the only one left.
And the drones at the gun checkpoint gaining momentum.
With one last look, he flew toward the hostel.
He swung the jinggi around his body using the self-healing method.
When the pain was somewhat relieved and I had recovered my energy, I arrived in front of the hostel.
Bang! Bang! Kagang! Kaak!
“Ha!”
“Ugh!”
There were screams and gasps.
“Holy…….”
It’s a mess, and I don’t know where to stop it.
“There’s…….”
Then something caught my eye.
Three masked people were dealing with one person.
“Ha!”
A plum blossom in bloom.
The plum blossoms swayed in the wind, gently blocking the attacks of the masked men.
It was a perfect death sentence.
There was no need to worry about them.
The Wan Qingfeng Death Penalty was overwhelming the three masked men.
And the other one.
A single person fighting four masked men.
A sword slashed down from the sky.
Kwang!
An intense fall that was incomparable to the others.
It was Yoo-hyuk’s execution.
Yoo-hyuk’s execution looks precarious.
For some reason, a masked man stood out.
A strange sword technique that cut off the flow of Yoo Hyuk’s falling sword.
A sharp trick that penetrates the gaps.
Although not as skilled as Yoo Hyuk, this masked man was no slouch.
“Kwak!”
Kwak!
Yoo Hyuk was wounded.
It wasn’t a deep wound, but if he continued to fight with a wound like that, his fatigue would accumulate and he wouldn’t be able to exert his full strength.
Yoo Hyuk threw himself at the masked men surrounding him.
Kewwww!
A slashing motion.
The masked men spun around to defend themselves.
BANG!
A loud bang could be heard as sword clashed with sword.
A huge rebound.
It immobilized both me and the masked man for a moment.
The resulting gap.
It’s a small gap, but it’s a gap that can cut off the breath of someone of Yoo Hyuk’s skill.
Yoo Hyuk blocked all three masked men’s swords at once, pausing for a moment on my sword before thrusting it at the masked man.
Sugurgh!
I cut down one of them and made eye contact with Yoo Hyuk.
His eyes were different from before.
Gone was the childlike fierceness of his eyes, and in their place was a soft yet strong gaze.
It had changed.
They turned and ran in opposite directions.
The masked man lunged.
With one hand, he drew his sword again.
‘Dual Sword Technique, not good for panicking…….’
As expected, the masked man’s blade shook as he panicked.
I stabbed my sword through the gap.
KANG!
However, the other masked man defended by thrusting his sword through the gap, as if his skill was different from the one outside.
Panicked, the masked man threw out a rainbow.
A projectile from close range.
Pit!
He quickly turned his head, but the dagger grazed his cheek.
“Thud!”
Something foreign entered through the cheek.
It was poison.
But for me, who had developed some resistance to poison thanks to the training given to me by Ma Zhen Tian during the battle against the Royal Politics, this level of poison didn’t bother me.
It was just that my body was wounded.
It wasn’t a big wound, but I didn’t know how much more fighting I would have to do, so even a small wound was a problem.
My mind wavered, and my sword shook.
The ground!
The masked man deflected my sword and drove it into my body.
Puck!
“Ugh!”
Severe pain shot from my chest.
“Woof!”
Blood regurgitated with a great pain.
The two masked men thought I had suffered severe internal injuries and thrust their swords out with deadly force.
“Kk…….”
I quickly deployed the Plum Blossom Yo-Yo to block.
However, the deadly thrusts of the masked men’s swords were not something I could simply block.
Pfft!
A rainbow sword that had broken through the plum blossom shield grazed his neck.
“Ugh!
The sword path became even more disorganized.
Through the gap, another one flew in, aiming for his neck.
‘It’s too late to raise the sword, then…….’
He unleashed his chi through his upper body.
Telekinesis.
The beast noticeably slowed down.
The masked man was surprised.
With the heavy blue steel sword in his left hand, he deflected Bisu, and with the blue steel sword in his right hand, he slashed at the masked man’s body.
Squeak!
The masked man collapsed with lifeless eyes.
He looked at the other masked man, and the other one threw a secret weapon at him.
You grabbed it with telekinesis and rushed to the masked man.
Bang! Bang! Ka-gang! Ka-ang!
A flurry of blows.
The masked man fumbled and defended.
“Flailing? That’s a mistake, that’s it.
“Ha!”
Squeezing out the last of his strength, he crossed his sword.
Chaaah!
The masked man collapsed.
As I relaxed, thinking it was finally over, my legs gave out.
“Ouch!”
Something hot trickled down between my lips.
I touch it with my hand and realize it’s red, watery, blood.
“Stay back. Fighting with internal injuries like that…….”
I may be a skilled masked man, but I can’t go one-on-one with Yoo Hyuk.
He defeated me in an instant and approached me.
I nodded at his words, swung my Qin Qi, and entered the hall.
It was quiet inside the hall.
It was the exact opposite of the commotion outside.
