Chapter 220
##220fury. They told me to do it like the real thing.?
‘It's already been over an hour.’
The Changcheon Sword King was still amazed several times as he watched the white water dragon chasing him..
Ta-da-da-da-dang!
Even as he was being followed, Baek Soo-ryong was able to block out all the memorization that was constantly pouring in from all directions..
It wasn't just memorization.
He discovered the cleverly placed trap in advance and made it useless. He sensed the secretly sprayed poison like a ghost and waved his sleeve to blow it away in the wind..
‘I was skeptical when I heard that I had cut down a blood beast all by myself, but I have really reached the beginning of the peak..’
This was the conclusion that the Changcheon Sword King came to after closely observing the White Water Dragon..
He was trying to hide his skills, but he couldn't fool his eyes if he performed martial arts at this distance..
The Changcheon Sword King's eyes narrowed..
‘It's amazing that he has reached the pinnacle at such a young age, but what is even more amazing is his ability to judge situations and improvise..’
Naturally, the most attacks were concentrated on Baeksu-ryong, who was chasing the Changcheon Sword King at the forefront..
But Baek Soo-ryong had no friends to fight against or share opinions with..
He had to judge, decide and carry out everything on his own..
‘It's not like I'm pushing it with force.…….’
I learned to avoid what to avoid and skip what to skip..
Because the judgment and execution were surprisingly quick, the speed of chasing the Sword King of Changcheon hardly slowed down..
“Meanwhile, he is even leaving a mark for the Cheongryong Academy instructors who follow him..”
“……As expected, you knew..”
“If you think you don't know, you're ignoring me too much..”
Martial arts, situational judgment, and a strong mentality that is not shaken by any external factors..
The more I knew about Hundred Water Dragons, the more I could only admire them..
I wanted to test the limits of Baeksuryong by increasing the speed, but if I did that, all the instructors following me would fall behind..
‘If it weren't for the guy whose identity was suspicious…….’
He was a talented person who was so greedy that I wanted to take him as a disciple..
But wasn't it easy for Baek Soo-ryong to march for more than an hour?.
“Phew…….”
Baek Soo-ryong, whose breathing became quite heavy, spoke to the Changcheon Sword King with a tired expression..
“Can I ask you one thing??”
“The question was allowed to the person who arrived first at the destination..”
“It's not that kind of question…….”
Chaeng!
The White Water Dragon, who struck down the arrow that came by surprise, frowned and said..
“Before we left, you told us to treat it like a real battle.?”
“It was like that.”
“If this were a real fight, the enemies would be hiding in the bushes and attacking me..”
“however?”
“If you really want it to be like a real battle, wouldn't it be okay to move while killing the enemy??”
“What?”
At that moment, I felt a dense murderous energy blooming from all over the place..
Those who hid in the bushes and threw memorized weapons were the Changcheon Swords, the pride of the Namgung family..
Each and every one of them is a master who is stronger than the instructors at Odaekwan..
The white water dragon had just wounded their lofty pride..
‘They're going to kill us?’
‘upstart. I didn't even know that I was being treated appropriately.…….’
Baek Soo-ryong said with a grin, perhaps knowing that the Changcheon Sword Team's hostility towards him was increasing..
“I'm slowly getting tired of it. If you move while neutralizing the enemies so they can never attack you again, future hikes will be easier..”
The Changcheon Sword King nodded without hesitation..
In fact, he wanted to see Baek Soo-ryong's martial arts in more detail..
“If you can, try it. But keep in mind that the moment you start counterattacking, the attacks targeting you may become more severe..”
“thank you for your permission.”
Baek Soo-ryong smiled and answered..
The Changcheon Sword King, feeling a little offended by that easy-going smile, sent a message to the Changcheon Sword Team that followed him..
[Since he's so confident, I think you can show off your skills a little more. I even allow you to use a sword..]
[honorary name!]
From then on, the attacks of the Changcheon Sword Unit became more fierce..
The speed of the pouring memorization doubled, and it flew from the blind spot, aiming for the critical spot..
P it!
One of the secret swords grazed Baek Su-ryong’s cheek. A faint drop of blood appeared from the shallow wound. The uniform was torn in several places, leaving traces of blood..
But the white water dragon was no longer avoiding it. He caught the flying memorabilia with his hands and returned them to their owners..
Kyaang! Kyaang!
The memorization that flew through the darkness was threatening even to the Changcheon Sword Team. I heard the sound of memorizing words being struck in the bushes..
Baek Soo-ryong rolled up the corners of his mouth and muttered..
“The Changcheon Sword Belt is nothing special. At best, isn't all you can do is hide like a rat and memorize things?.”
“!!”
That provocation was decisive.
Changcheon Sword Team narrowed the distance towards Baeksuryong..
Countless scraps of paper, coins, and even stones and sharpened pieces of wood flew by..
썣썄죤 죣죣!
If a rainstorm, known as the greatest secret of the Four Heavenly Gates, were to unfold, would this be the scene?.
It felt like a typhoon of memorization was raging..
At the moment when hundreds of memorized words were poured into him, Baeksu-ryong leaped into the sky and rotated his body..
Paralarak!
The dark energy caught up in the light waves generated by the rotation swirled along the white water dragon's body and bounced in all directions as if exploding..
Although he survived a typhoon, he was unable to move freely afterward because he was floating in the sky..
Changcheon Geomdae, whose medicine was so strong, did not miss the gap..
‘I won't scold you.!’
‘bloke! The pretense of pride ends here.!’
Four Changcheon Swordsmen dressed in black jumped out from the bushes on both sides and attacked the White Water Dragon..
The Changcheon Sword Master shouted from behind them..
“Make me pay for my carelessness!”
It was truly a surprise attack aimed at the perfect moment. Baek Soo-ryong’s face also showed embarrassment..
‘boy. We're not going to be in trouble this time..’
The Changcheon Sword King thought that Baeksuryong would be injured in this attack, or at least miss him..
His eyes sank coldly as he looked at Baeksu-ryong..
It was because my behavior earlier was somewhat disappointing..
‘It's good to be confident, but you made a reckless provocation without considering your opponent's skills. If you don't come to your senses at this opportunity, you will suffer throughout your education..’
But at that moment, a meaningful smile spread across Baek Soo-ryong’s lips..
The Changcheon Sword King immediately realized that something was wrong and warned the Changcheon Sword Master..
“be careful!”
But it's already too late.
The moment the four members of the Changcheon Sword Team narrowed the distance, Baek Soo-ryong took out the memorization weapon he had hidden in his arms and threw it away..
Sigh! Sigh! Sigh! deeply!
The memorization was accurately embedded in the limbs of the four Changcheon Sword Team members..
“Pfft!”
“Wow!”
It happened in an instant. All four members of the Changcheon Sword Team were memorized..
But they are also seasoned experts.
As soon as the attack failed, he tried to retreat..
But at that moment, they were shocked to feel that their bodies were not listening properly..
“poison!”
“When??”
It wasn't a fatal poison, but it was a type of poison that temporarily paralyzed the body..
It was the poison released by the Changcheon Sword Team earlier to poison the White Water Dragon..
“I think it was you who let down your guard, not me.?”
Towards them, who were staggering around with a look of despair on their faces, the white water dragon opened its light attack and came as if flying..
whirring!
Then his hand stretched out like a thunderbolt..
puff puff puff!
A movement like lightning.
Baek Soo-ryong defeated the demon blood of all four people and took the smallest warrior among them hostage..
“Don't come closer.”
Baek Soo-ryong, who held his sword to the hostage's neck, looked around and spoke fiercely..
Dozens of Changcheon Swordsmen poured in from all directions, glaring at him as if they were going to kill him..
However, a leisurely smile appeared on Baek Soo-ryong’s mouth as he accepted their murderous actions..
“Everyone back off, right? Unless you want to see your colleagues die..”
“This is crazy…….”
“How dare you take a hostage?!”
Changcheon Sword Team was unusually embarrassed..
Although they prepared for all kinds of situations while preparing for new instructor training, they never imagined that one of them would be taken hostage..
At that time, a large man stepped forward..
“It's a hostage situation. Stop playing around and let it go..”
The Great Master of Changcheon Sword glared at Baeksu-ryong with a menacing expression. He looked like he was barely holding back his desire to live..
But Baek Soo-ryong just laughed..
“Do I look like I'm joking? Whenever you throw a memorization at me, I wonder if you get a kick out of it.?”
“Innoom……!”
The Changcheon Swordmaster let out a roar and drew his sword..
However, the attack order could not be given carelessly..
The look in Baek Soo-ryong’s eyes as he held the knife to his subordinate’s neck was so calm that it was scary..
It was then.
“Hahahaha!”
The person who burst into laughter was the Changcheon Sword King..
He forgot to keep running, stopped and smiled.
After finally calming down his laughter, he looked at Baek Soo-ryong with a face of sincere admiration..
“From the beginning, you provoked the Changcheon Sword Team with the intention of taking hostages. No, was it a trap when you asked me for permission to kill the enemy??”
I've already admired it several times, but this time it was different..
Baek Soo-ryong nodded with a serious expression..
“you're right.”
“This is really troublesome..”
The Sword King of Changcheon sighed deeply..
I was completely fooled by this clever guy..
Who would have thought that after asking for permission to kill the enemy, he would take Changcheon Sword Master as a hostage?.
Baek Soo-ryong said with a grin..
“If I do this, it's not my responsibility if I kill the hostage..”
“How dare you! Do you think you can come back alive even after harming the Namgung family’s servant?!”
When the Changcheon Sword Master unleashed his fearsome killing power, the Changcheon Sword King stopped him..
“What instructor Baek Soo-ryong said is correct..”
“Lord Taesangga!”
“If so, are you telling me to say two things with one mouth??”
King Changcheon Geom was a member of the Ten Zones of Murim and the head of the Namgung family..
I was in a position where I couldn't say a word lightly..
In the end, he was bound by his own words..
The Master of Changcheon Sword realized the fact too late and gritted his teeth..
“Ugh…….”
The Changcheon Sword King looked at the white water dragon..
Suddenly, he wanted to test Baek Su-ryong’s courage..
“What would you do if the Changcheon Sword Team ignores the hostage and attacks you??”
Baek Soo-ryong answered without thinking for a moment..
“First, I plan to cut off the hostage's left arm. Still, if you attack me, use your right arm. After that, you have to cut your throat and run away without regret. Because this is real.”
Gulp.
The warrior who was taken hostage by Baek Soo-ryong swallowed dry saliva..
‘At the same time as I was thinking, ‘I wonder if I could do that,’ my body was trembling without realizing it with the fear of, ‘What if that really happens?’.
Baek Soo-ryong added:.
“It was Changcheon Sword King who told us to do it as if it were a real fight. I believe that you will be responsible for any accidents that occur as a result. I'm sure it's not just the instructors who have to take the risk of getting hurt.?”
“Hehe… … okay. I did that.”
The Changcheon Sword King, who was laughing with an embarrassed expression, looked around at the Changcheon Sword Stand and said..
“Just step away. Unless you find a way to save the hostage, I don't think you can bother that kid anymore..”
“……Lord Taesang. If you command me, I will continue to carry out my mission..”
The Great Master of Changcheon Sword glared at Baeksu-ryong and spoke solemnly. I felt like my pride was greatly hurt by this..
But the Changcheon Sword King shook his head..
“It has been done. I don't want to lose the Changcheon Sword Team because of something like this. You must first find a way to save the hostage..”
“……honorary name.”
The Great Lord glared at Baeksu-ryong for a moment and then ordered his subordinates to retreat. The Changcheon Sword Unit was scattered again among the bushes..
The Changcheon Sword King asked Baek Soo-ryong, who was carrying the hostage on his shoulder..
“If you launch a light attack with hostages, it will be twice as hard.?”
The warrior who had been injected with demonic blood was no different from a piece of wood. They say they don't rebel, but carrying a person on their shoulders and performing a light attack was difficult even for a decent expert..
“it's okay. You have to accept that in exchange for safety until you reach your destination..”
Baek Soo-ryong answered calmly and pointed out that the hostage needed a blood transfusion. The unconscious hostage fell limp..
“Don't let your guard down until the end. It seems like you won right now, but the Changcheon Sword Master is a stubborn man..”
“I'll keep that in mind.”
After speaking, the Changcheon Sword King launched his light attack again, and Baeksu-ryong followed after him, carrying the hostage around his shoulder..
And until it reached its destination, Baeksu-ryong was not disturbed by the Changcheon Swordsman..
