Chapter 241
##241fury. The Namgung family is no longer
“hey. wake up.”
Baek Su-ryong woke up the unconscious Sword King Changcheon and inspected the wounds on his body..
It felt like I was fighting a beast, not a person..
His entire body was covered with countless cuts and stab wounds. The original color could not be guessed from the blood-stained uniform..
‘It's a good thing you're still alive.’
The critical wound was a sword wound penetrating the abdomen..
Danjeon, which could be said to be the life of a warrior, was destroyed..
A normal person should already be dead.
However, the unrivaled vitality of the unrivaled expert still holds the breath of the Changcheon Sword King..
“Please, please…….”
The Changcheon Sword King, barely conscious, stretched out his hand to the White Water Dragon. I seemed to have misunderstood him as the Black Yamaje..
Of course, Baek Soo-ryong did not feel any sympathy at that sight..
“That's disgusting.”
Baeksu-ryong clicked his tongue and grabbed Changcheon Sword King's veins and forcibly inhaled energy..
As warm energy entered his body, his eyes gradually came back into focus..
“you…….”
The Changcheon Sword King recognized the White Water Dragon and opened his eyes wide..
He slowly looked around and asked in a cracked voice..
“Where is the Black Yamaje??”
“I don't know. When I came, you were alone like this.”
“……Have you not seen the man with red eyes??”
The Changcheon Sword King asked, remembering the masked man who surprised the Black Yama Emperor before he fainted..
I couldn't forget the red hair blowing in the wind and the eyes that looked like the flames of hell..
‘Blood Demon!’
In a split second, the image of the absolute master who was the master of the blood religion in the past came to mind..
But if he was a blood demon, why did he attack the Black Yama Emperor instead of himself??
Baek Soo-ryong shrugged his shoulders and asked back bluntly..
“how do i know?”
In that answer, the Sword King of Changcheon felt something strange..
Come to think of it, it's been bothering me ever since I woke up..
“……Why are you being so rude to me??”
Although it was already too late to revive his body, the white water dragon did not even take out the common golden spear medicine when he saw himself..
Rather, he was looking at himself with contempt..
“'Cause you don't deserve to be polite.”
The Sword King of Changcheon laughed empty-handedly at that cold answer..
“You look down on me because I'm dying. Was he really this much of a man?.”
The Changcheon Sword King made an effort to straighten his back and focus his eyes. It wasn't easy because of the sword stuck in my abdomen..
Although he felt that his life was quickly slipping away, he planned to maintain his dignity as the head of the Namgung family until the end..
“Although I have lost all my martial skills and am dying, I am the head of the Namgung family and a senior in martial arts. Juniors should be polite..”
Baek Soo-ryong laughed as if it were absurd..
“This is ridiculous. Now you think I'm ignoring you because you're dying?”
“Otherwise what if……?”
“I saw it all. what a disgusting thing you have done.”
“……what are you talking about.”
The Changcheon Sword King’s expression hardened for a moment. Baek Soo-ryong didn't miss it..
“The basement of the Namgung family tombs. White bones buried under the well. you did it?”
The Changcheon Sword King did not respond but just looked at the White Water Dragon with transparent eyes..
“There were traces of blood religion there. There were also records left by the dead..”
Baek Soo-ryong revealed everything he saw in the basement of the Namgung family tomb..
Of course, he left out his relationship with blood and emphasized the terrible massacre committed by the Changcheon Sword King..
“Are you still going to get away with it??”
The Changcheon Sword King was silent for quite some time..
And I barely opened my mouth.
“At first I thought you were a spy for the blood cult..”
“……What bullshit?”
Baek Soo-ryong was genuinely surprised, but did not show it on the outside..
‘Why on earth?’
So far, there has never been a single trace of blood connection..
I was especially careful in front of experts like Changcheon Sword King..
Because I couldn't understand what he was saying just now..
Because there is actually no evidence that Baeksuryong is related to blood religion..
The Sword King of Changcheon looked at him with blurry eyes and said:.
“When I first saw you, I felt again the same feelings I felt during the war against the blood cult. It felt very dangerous and ominous..”
“Just because I feel like it?”
“Are you ignoring the intuition of experts like me??”
“…….”
Baek Su-ryong somehow seemed to know what the Changcheon Sword King was feeling..
It's probably the intimidating feeling of the Reverse Heavenly God's Gong..
King Changcheon Sword studied magic and even learned it himself..
As a result, his senses became more sensitive to magic, and he felt an inexplicable sense of intimidation from Baek Su-ryong..
‘In the end, it was just heartache..’
The Changcheon Sword King looked at the White Water Dragon and continued speaking..
“…… But it doesn’t seem to be the case. If you were a spy for the Blood Cult, you wouldn't have said this to me, and you wouldn't have kept me alive. If you're a cultist.”
The Changcheon Sword King let out a weak laugh..
His voice was becoming increasingly murky..
Baek Soo-ryong said with a cold, stern expression..
“Among the people you killed were innocent children..”
“okay. They all were killed to destroy the evidence..”
The Changcheon Sword King no longer denied what he had done..
People who are about to die tend to be more honest than ever..
Even if the other person already knows the secret to some extent,,
And if it's just the two of us in a quiet forest,
Even if it was a secret that had been kept for a lifetime, the lock was bound to come off..
“But that's it.”
Feeling the sensation gradually disappearing from his body, the Changcheon Sword King asked back..
“What did I do so wrong??”
“……what?”
“They were going to die anyway. I hid it and let it live for several more decades. In return, he demanded the magical arts and wealth of the blood religion. Considering their circumstances, it was a pretty fair deal..”
Political hypocrites began to rationalize their actions..
Rather, there was fierce anger in his eyes, not guilt..
“But he kept asking for unreasonable things. Want freedom? They were truly bastards who knew neither subject nor grace. It was right to kill them all and get rid of them..”
After losing my powerful martial arts skills, is it belatedly that the influence of my magic skills is affecting my bone marrow?.
A subtle glow appeared in the Changcheon Sword King's eyes, and a crooked smile appeared on his lips..
Baek Soo-ryong suddenly felt disgusted and asked:.
“If you're so confident, why don't you reveal the truth to the world??”
“Phew… … . That's a different story.”
The Changcheon Sword King let out another bleak laugh..
The wound where the sword was inserted opened and blood leaked out, but I didn't care..
I'm going to die soon anyway.
It also meant that this moment was the most honest time in my life..
“I don't regret what happened that day. If I go back to the past, I will do the same thing again. I, Namgung Jehak, the Changcheon Sword King, have made the Namgung family the best in the world.!”
Is that a struggle before death?.
Nangong Jehak vomited blood and talked about his achievements..
Baek Soo-ryong said quietly..
“If you won't say it, I will say it. I'm going to reveal everything I've seen and heard here..”
At that moment, haha! I burst out laughing..
Nangong Jehak looked at Baek Su-ryong with a pitiful expression..
“You foolish child. Who on earth will believe you??”
“…….”
“Do you have any evidence? All have already been discarded. Those white bones you saw underground? What evidence is there for these people who have already rotted away? They're just corpses.”
Baek Soo-ryong did not mention that the corpses were frozen and the scene was preserved as is..
Namgung Jehak, thinking that his opponent was speechless, burst out laughing..
“expose? Do whatever you want. I am the Changcheon Sword King. He is the noble Ten Lords of Murim, the person who made the Namgung family the greatest family in the world, and the Namgung family was the greatest family head in history. I have been subjected to a lot of slander in my life. Even if you talk about it, it only adds one more thing, it doesn't put a dent in my life..”
Nangong Jehak's face turned red for a moment..
It was a phenomenon called heliotrope, where one briefly regains one's strength before death..
“I will die protecting the Namgung family until the end. Even now, we have protected Sega from the attacks of the evil blood cult. Is there a greater end than this? haha… … Hahahahaha!”
Namgung Jehak's face looked extremely relieved as he poured out everything he wanted to say..
Nangong Jehak closed his eyes with a smile on his lips..
I felt like there really wasn't much spark of life left. I felt like I could close my eyes comfortably like this..
Baek Soo-ryong looked at that expression and said sarcastically..
“Even if I die, I will still feel refreshed. It's like an expression on your back..”
“No matter what you say, you can't shake my steadfastness.”
“Is it really so??”
At that moment, a meaningful smile appeared on Baek Soo-ryong’s lips..
Until now, Namgung Jehak had been talking one-sidedly..
Baek Soo-ryong’s counterattack began now..
“As you say, there is no evidence of your evil deeds. But there are witnesses.”
“Even if you tried to sway me with nonsense…….”
Baek Su-ryong looked back and said.
“You can come out now..”
“!!”
The Changcheon Sword King opened his eyes that had been closed..
Was someone listening to their conversation??
Because I lost my inner energy and my senses became dull, I never noticed that someone was listening..
Nangong Jehak looked at the swaying bushes and hoped desperately..
‘please. I hope he has nothing to do with the Namgung family.……’
After a while, a man walked out of the dark..
At this moment, it was the face that Nangong Jehak did not want to see the most..
“……Father.”
Namgung Segaju, iron-blooded sword Namgung Cheon walked with a pale expression..
Namgung Jehak started pouring out excuses in a hurry..
“Cheonah, it’s a misunderstanding, that’s not it. You heard wrong. This, this…….”
“I heard it all with my own ears.”
The head of the Namgung family said with a gloomy expression..
It wasn't just Namgungcheon.
Behind him, figures from the Namgung family, including Namgungsu, appeared one by one..
Everyone's face was pale..
“Lord Taesangga…….”
“why, why…….”
“So, are you saying that all of this happened because of Lord Taesang??”
Some of the new instructors at the College of Education could even be seen behind them..
Everyone had faces of great shock..
“Oh, no, no, that's not it.!”
The Changcheon Sword King pointed at the White Water Dragon with his finger and scolded..
“It's him! That guy controlled my mind with hexes! I lost martial arts. I can't resist. Son, believe me.…….”
“Father. stop talking.”
Nam Gung-cheon came over and supported his father..
Nangong Jehak was dying with a completely different expression than before..
I was nervous, anxious, and trembling with fear..
Nam Gung-cheon hugged his father, who looked much younger than me, and comforted him in a calm tone..
“yes. I am fully considering the possibility that my father was manipulated by witchcraft..”
“Yeah, yeah. That's it. It's him. White Water Dragon. I need to kill that guy…….”
“That is why we will investigate more thoroughly..”
“What, what?”
Namgungcheon’s expression was unusual..
“Let’s check out the basement of the Namgung family tomb. I will definitely find out why the warriors of my family learned magic..”
“Cheonah, Cheonah…….”
“If it is true that someone cast a hex on your father, I will use the name of the Namgung family to find that person and kill him..”
Nangong Jehak's expression becomes increasingly pale..
I didn't want that answer.
And I didn't even want to continue talking..
“However, if everything that came out of your father’s mouth is true,.”
“Cheonah, Cheonah…….”
Namgung Jehak knew his son’s expression like that..
It was the face of stubbornness that no one, not even my father, could break..
The head of the Namgung family, who lost one eye, made a solemn declaration..
“There will be no place to enshrine your father in the Namgung family tomb..”
“you! how did you do me……!”
Nangong Jehak vomited blood and had a seizure. Blood spread from the abdomen where the sword was inserted..
Nangong Cheon pressed his father's body to calm him down..
“Calm down. Father.”
“What did I do for my family? I made the Namgung family the best in the world.!”
The color was gradually draining from Nangong Jehak's face..
There was really, really no time left for him now..
The most miserable death in the world awaited him..
“This can't be happening! you can't do this to me!”
Namgung-cheon looked at his father, who was stained with madness and scratching him..
He said he would investigate thoroughly, but he had already read the truth in his father's eyes..
Because of this, I couldn't comfort you even with lies..
Just silently conveying the cruel truth.
“Father. The Namgung family is no longer the best family in the world..”
“me… … Is… … big… … omg……!”
Nangong Jehak's body began to twitch and then gradually stopped moving..
I kept my eyes wide open until the moment I stopped breathing..
And the moment Nangung Jehak closed his eyes, Baeksu-ryong thought of the Yin-Yang Mazon for a moment..
‘I think you can close your eyes comfortably now..’
