Chapter 168
Episode 168
“Keuuk!”
Jang Sam-tae’s dagger slit a man’s throat. The moment he saw that blood was gushing out, someone stabbed a sword into Jang Sam-tae’s head.
Jang Sam-tae, startled, kicked the ground for a moment and twisted his body.
Jang Sam-tae, who had been spinning several times in the air, took a breath as he felt the blade barely passing by. However, I know better than anyone else that this is not the time to be complacent.
“You bastard!”
The man, who was shocked by the death of his colleague, narrowed the distance. Although it was a surprise attack, it seemed like his pride was hurt that his colleague was killed by someone who showed such sloppy movements.
Kang-!
Blocked it.
Although it was a small dagger, it was Jang Sam-tae, who had seen the sword of Sadohak for a long time.
It wasn’t as funny as blocking a sword that was slower than that.
However, it was not at a level that could overcome the difference between a dagger and a sword.
Squeaky-!
The pain felt like my wrist was going to fly off.
As a result, a gap was created, and the man attacked without missing it.
Jang Sam-tae, who was startled, quickly tried to back away, but the sword had already been swung.
Suddenly!
“Wow!”
However, the blade did not reach Jang Sam-tae’s body in the end. The blade of Demon Yangjiang that appeared from behind quickly cut the man’s body apart.
With no time to do anything in the surprise attack, the man’s body was cut in half and spilled blood.
“Whoops… whoops… I almost fell behind.”
“Hehehe, why are you acting so carelessly?”
“Ship! “If I hadn’t done it, everyone would have died!”
“I’m not dying yet!”
The Majang River looked dangerous, as if it would soon take your breath away, but he spoke well.
However, if the wound was not taken care of right away, it would not be surprising if he collapsed soon.
Jang Sam-tae sighed and stood up.
He approached the body and rummaged through it as if he was looking for something.
“What are you doing?”
“I was wondering if there was anything useful…” After searching the two corpses, Jang Sam-tae took several items and money. I obtained dozens of silver coins, two strange cylinders, and several small rings.
The cylinder definitely looked like a signal flare, and the single ring seemed to be used to treat internal injuries, so it was a must to keep it with you.
“First of all, we’re going to the east… so let’s go first.”
“huh? what?”
“I said go first!”
“What are you going to do?”
“Don’t we have to get rid of those guys first?”
Jang Sam-tae touched the cylinder.
It seemed like it would be quite easy to get rid of them as long as they knew where they were or had a signal flare that went off when danger arose.
Jang Sam-tae smiled and moved toward the west.
“Let’s go first! Don’t go and die! “I’ll follow you in no time!”
“Hey you idiot!”
Ma Jang-gang shouted, but he could not break the stubbornness of Jang Sam-tae, who had already made up his mind.
It was so fast that it disappeared from sight in an instant and was no longer visible.
“Damn…what are you trying to do?”
Majang River let out a long sigh.
‘There’s a guy who’s weaker than me! ‘Who will take responsibility if you die?’
I had no idea how to express my uncomfortable feelings.
But I didn’t think chasing after him in this state would be of any help.
When I thought that it might actually be holding me back, I started to cry and get irritated.
“Ssipal!”
He cursed and moved towards the waterway.
‘Come quickly! If you don’t come, I’m really going to go alone!’
Jang Sam-tae moved quickly toward the west.
His goal was to get as far away from the Majang River as possible. Of course, I remembered exactly the way back and didn’t forget to run.
If you lose your way after ignoring the Demonic Cult’s pursuit, you will end up like a sandfish.
Jang Sam-tae, who had been running for about a corner, suddenly stopped. The surrounding area was quite rough and there were steep cliffs.
It is also a very difficult place to search.
Jang Sam-tae stopped there and smiled.
“Ha ha ha… Is this enough?”
“What is this?”
I was startled by the sound that came out of nowhere and looked away.
There, a man stands silently.
A man with a neat appearance and such a gentle appearance that it would be difficult to think of him as a warrior if he were not holding a sword.
I felt a strangeness in his gaze as he held a sword and looked at Jang Sam-tae.
“I followed the wind as it swayed, and it was just like that.”
Jang Sam-tae broke into a cold sweat at the man’s words.
Is it possible to chase someone with just the wind shaking them?
‘How great is this man’s tracking skills?’
Jang Sam-tae smiled awkwardly and slowly took out the dagger from his waist.
“Give up. “You are not my opponent.”
“That’s terrible! “You’re not our Lord… I’m not scared at all, right?”
“You sound interesting.”
Mun Ju-hak, the leader of Eunyeongdan, laughed with interest.
Who is Jangju that he dares say such a thing?
The kid in front of me seemed to have forgotten where this was.
“Jang Joo-ra… I don’t know what kind of guy he is, but I’d like to see his face. “Who is this guy who
sent someone to the Demonic Cult without any fear?”
“ha ha ha! “I understand this to mean that your loyalty to your lord is that high.”
“Why do you envy the Demon Cult bastards who don’t have something like that? “You damn bastard!”
Moon Ju-hak flinched at those words and his face twisted.
His expression, which had been like that of a gisaeng brother, changed, and there was no trace of an evil spirit or chasal. For a moment, even the air around me seemed to have frozen.
Jang Sam-tae took a deep breath and took a low stance.
The opponent is definitely a master.
Now, you can tell a certain level just by the momentum.
It wouldn’t be bad if his skills were better than those I’ve met so far.
“This guy needs to learn how to play with his snout again.”
“joy! “Stop laughing and just attack me, you bastard.”
A sigh escaped Moon Ju-hak’s mouth.
I never thought I would be chasing such a frivolous guy. Even patience has its limits. I tried to gently capture him and take him away, but I couldn’t bear the frustration that rose up.
I won’t kill him, but I think I need to cut him in one or two places and listen to his screams to get some relief.
wickedness-!
Moon Juhak’s sword moved.
When the lightly swung sword cut through the air and was aimed at Jang Sam-tae, Jang Sam-tae was startled and quickly dodged to the side.
Sword energy (劍氣).
The bushes around Jang Sam-tae were cut down.
The distance from Munjuhak is about five miles. The fact that he was able to strike that distance and use sword energy meant that Moon Ju-hak’s abilities were even better than expected.
‘Sis punishment! ‘Nothing really works!’ Jang Sam-tae gritted his teeth.
I never thought I would meet such an expert here. Seeing that he was good at tracking, it seemed like even if he tried to run away, he would be caught right away.
The good news is that
‘Is it just that he’s alone?’ Jang Sam-tae took a few breaths. The other person was alone.
Moreover, he was very confident in his own skills. Then, I wondered if I could somehow get out of it by digging into that gap.
Jang Sam-tae, holding a dagger in his hand, ran forward.
We quickly narrowed the distance with a few leaps.
The speed was so fast that even Moon Ju-hak could not help but be surprised.
“It looks like you’re quite confident in your legs.”
Moon Ju-hak sneered as he looked at Jang Sam-tae, who had already approached him.
The dagger he was swinging was clearly visible. An attack clearly aimed at the waist.
The trajectory was not so honest that one could disparage it, but just by looking at the tip of the dagger shaking, you could tell that this guy’s skills were not that good.
He was a guy who could only do a little light attack at best.
Therefore, the sneer on his lips became thicker, and Moon Ju-hak lightly stretched out his sword to block the dagger.
Bye!
“Ugh!”
However, an attack that was completely different from what was expected came.
Moon Ju-hak was hit on the head by a knee that came at him in an instant and he stumbled.
Unlike what was expected to be an attack using a dagger, it was Jang Sam-tae’s sword technique that came flying.
As he was confident in light ball, his leg strength was great.
In fact, holding a dagger was just a threat, and what he learned from Sadohak Dan Woo-hyeon was how to move his legs better.
‘But it won’t work one more time.’
I know because I heard it from Dan Woo-hyeon.
The same move rarely worked for true experts.
He said that unless he continues to exploit loopholes in other ways, it is the same as giving up his neck.
Then there was no hesitation. We must rush in immediately.
Because I had to not give the opponent even a moment of opportunity.
Jang Sam-tae flew even faster.
He stretched out his feet in the air several times and aimed for Moon Joo-hak’s head. Hana Moon Joo-hak is also an expert with countless experiences.
He dodged and blocked the flying kick and stepped back. Since I realized that my opponent’s leg strength was considerable, there was no way I would stand still and welcome him.
Mun Ju-hak’s movements have become considerably more agile.
However, instead of digging in, Jang Sam-tae stamped one foot loudly on the ground.
Bang
“Kwaaak!”
Rotation(back M).
He took advantage of the reaction and deployed his tactics even faster, so Mun Ju-hak was unable to chase after him.
This was Jang Sam-tae’s advantage and the only weapon that could make him a true warrior.
Sigh-!
“Ugh!”
However, Moon Ju-hak was also not easy.
Even though I was staggering, I could read Jang Sam-tae’s location through the shaking of the wind.
At the same time, the sword he swung left a long scar on Jang Sam-tae’s body.
Moon Joo-hak gritted his teeth even as he noticed blood splattering out. Even though the blade should have gone deeper, he pulled back in an instant and avoided a fatal wound.
This is the first time I’ve seen someone use light attack so freely. That was the element that bridged the gap between Mun Ju-hak and Jang Sam-tae.
Only then did Moon Ju-hak realize that he was not an opponent to be taken lightly.
‘I give up capturing alive!’
I was planning on cutting off at least those two legs.
Otherwise, it seemed like this would become even more difficult. His angry gaze was directed at Jang Sam-tae, and the sword had a sad feel to it.
The life spread out like waves.
“I underestimated you. But you will have to be prepared from now on.”
“Tsk.”
Jang Sam-tae spit and composed himself.
In the past, as soon as I encountered someone with that kind of energy, I would have gotten down on my knees and begged for his life.
But the reason he didn’t do that now was because he had the names of Dan Woo-hyeon, Sadohak, and Nam Gung-cheon on his back.
Also, shouldn’t we be someone who is not ashamed of Dansomi? I swore to protect that child. Until this life ends.
Then I had to become stronger. It won’t stop here. I have to surpass the author. With that promise, I strengthened my legs. Even though he received the opponent’s ferocious force with his whole body, he displayed an unwavering will.
Jang Sam-tae also ran, glaring at the approaching blade. All at once, it was a movement of my body that was very different from what I had done before.
At that moment, an afterimage appeared in Moon Ju-hak’s eyes.
“what…!?”
I raised my eyes at the sight of Jang Sam-tae, who seemed to be divided into two people.
The odds of which one is real are 50/50. However, if you stop the sword here, your energy and blood will flow back and you will die.
Gritting his teeth, Moon Ju-hak sharply thrust his sword.
Sigh!
The swung sword cut something, and blood soared high into the sky.
However, the sword that was thought to have cut down the opponent dug into Jang Sam-tae’s shoulder and did not fall out.
Before I knew it, Jang Sam-tae was holding the blade with one hand.
Jang Sam-tae’s left hand became tattered like a rag.
Although he held onto the sword, he was unable to completely overcome its force.
“Huh… huh…”
But this narrowed the distance.
Jang Sam-tae let out a rough breath and looked at Mun Ju-hak with red-hot eyes. I lightly placed my free hand on his chest.
Wood clatter!
“Kukkkeok!”
Moon Ju-hak’s entire body was twisted like a whirlpool.
Not only the flesh, but also the bones and internal organs changed into a grotesque form, as if they were being squeezed out in an instant.
“Che… Heavenly Demon Kek… Hwitungong… No way… Kwaek!”
“Ugh! “I won this city
, you bastard!”
Cheonmahoe Cheongong.
It was the moment when another legend began.
