Legend of the Evil Martial God
Chapter 12
Seeing that he was about to retreat obediently, Jin Gwanghon performed a cupped fist salute and said.
“Our Mad Sword Gate will be closing its doors for the time being. So please withdraw now.”
At Jin Gwanghon’s words, Jeok Wigang grinned wickedly and said.
“I don’t like that idea. If you don’t want to fight, I’ll have to make you fight.”
“What?”
“Let’s fight until my fighting spirit rises again.”
As Jeok Wigang muttered something, dozens of Jeok Wigang duplicates appeared in an instant.
The Mad Sword Gate people were horrified.
“Today is a beating day, so I won’t knock you out in one hit.”
Snap-.
As he snapped his fingers, Jeok Wigang’s clones all began moving toward the Mad Sword Gate disciples at once.
Thud thud thwack-.
“Aaaagh!”
“Urgh!”
“St, stop!”
“Gaaaah!”
Screams filled the air from all directions.
As Jin Gwanghon was backing away while watching the hellish scene unfolding in reality, Jeok Wigang appeared before him.
“Where are you going? Since you’re the Gate Master, I’ll personally deal with you myself.”
“Wh, why are you doing this to us?”
“Why?”
“What did we do wrong for you to treat us like this?”
“You bullied weak sects.”
“We never did such a thing! Rather, those weak sects became stronger thanks to us! Our only crime is making them stronger!”
“I’m doing the same thing. I’m doing this to make you stronger.”
“Th, that’s…”
“Come on, hurry up and get beaten so you can become stronger.”
Now that the situation was reversed, he could feel how wronged the Gangseo Alliance must have felt all this time.
That day, Jin Gwanghon experienced pain he had never once experienced in his entire life until the sun went down.
A week had passed since Jeok Wigang appeared at Mad Sword Gate.
Everyone looked around nervously like people suffering from nervous breakdowns, startling at even the smallest sounds.
Then one martial artist began to go berserk.
“Aaaah! I can’t live like this! Either he dies or I die, today I’ll settle this once and for all!”
That cry awakened the collective fury of the Mad Sword Gate disciples.
“That’s right! I’d rather die than live like this!”
“If we can’t catch that bastard today, I’ll take my own life!”
“Let’s fight prepared to die!”
The entire Mad Sword Gate was filled with killing intent.
Jin Gwanghon felt the same way.
Rather than living in such agony, he would choose to fight refreshingly and die like a man.
Jin Gwanghon distributed the Spirit Pills he had been saving to all his disciples.
“Eat them! And let’s fight that evil bastard! Even if we can’t win, let’s show him our spirit!”
“Yes!”
The Mad Sword Gate disciples who had taken the Spirit Pills and completed their qi circulation and breathing had their morale restored.
Having resolved to die, they were no longer afraid of the mysterious man in the evil spirit mask.
Instead, they eagerly waited for him to appear.
“Oh ho! The atmosphere is different today?”
Finally, the voice they had been waiting for was heard, and as if they had been waiting for it, the Mad Sword Gate disciples all rushed toward the evil spirit mask at once.
“Aaaah! Die!”
“Let’s die together today!”
“You fucking evil bastard! Drop dead!”
Watching the Mad Sword Gate disciples charging while screaming, Jeok Wigang chuckled.
“Now this should be fun. You should have done this from the start.”
Thud thud thwack-.
The Mad Sword Gate disciples hit by Jeok Wigang’s fists.
Unlike before, this time they didn’t faint.
They gritted their teeth and endured.
“Oh ho!”
The smile on Jeok Wigang’s lips grew deeper.
“Today is really fun.”
The Mad Sword Gate disciples felt like they would die from frustration at the Evil Spirit Mask who still only regarded them as entertainment.
They charged forward thinking they would have no regrets if they could just land one hit.
The frenzied Mad Sword Gate disciples’ wish was surprisingly quickly fulfilled.
All the attacks they launched while risking their lives began to hit the Evil Spirit Mask.
Thud thud thud-.
“We hit him!”
“We succeeded!”
“As expected, when you’re prepared to die, there’s nothing you can’t do!”
“Hahaha! How’s that! You monster!”
“Huh? Why isn’t he falling down?”
“Did we miss?”
“No! We hit him properly!”
The attacks had definitely succeeded.
His torn clothes were proof of that.
But he was standing there perfectly fine.
There was no blood visible that should have appeared if wounds were made.
“At, attack again!”
“It, it must have been Body Protection Energy! Attack again!”
The Mad Sword Gate disciples began attacking again, gripping their swords.
Gate Master Jin Gwanghon was included among them.
Once the attacks started working, Jin Gwanghon also lent his strength.
With his power, he could surely blow away the Evil Spirit Mask more decisively.
Then something amazing happened.
While taking concentrated attacks from everyone in Mad Sword Gate, he was slowly approaching as if nothing was wrong.
He didn’t even have any wounds.
His clothes were torn to shreds, barely covering his lower body.
Even though he was clearly being hit properly, the Evil Spirit Mask’s body was clean.
Meanwhile, the mask remained intact.
“Aaaah! This monster!”
“Please just die!”
Though they had prepared for death, the Mad Sword Gate disciples gradually fell into despair upon meeting an existence that made their resolve meaningless.
“I’ve taken enough hits, haven’t I?”
At the Evil Spirit Mask’s words, the Mad Sword Gate disciples’ attacks stopped.
Didn’t those words mean he had deliberately let them hit him?
“It seems like enough, so shall I start my turn now?”
The Mad Sword Gate disciples hesitated and stepped backward.
Clang-.
Along with the sound of a sword falling.
“Aaaah! I, I can’t do this anymore!”
A Mad Sword Gate disciple appeared who threw down his sword and ran away.
That was the beginning.
Everyone began throwing down their swords and running away.
In the Mad Sword Gate disciples’ eyes, Jeok Wigang looked like a real evil spirit.
However, not a single disciple among them escaped from Jeok Wigang’s grasp.
Only sounds could be heard, but people were collapsing one by one.
Jin Gwanghon watched the falling disciples with trembling hands.
Before long, all the Mad Sword Gate disciples had collapsed, foaming at the mouth.
In front of Jin Gwanghon, who was left alone again, Jeok Wigang revealed himself.
As he muttered something and flicked his fingers, his torn clothes were completely restored to their original state.
To Jin Gwanghon, who stared at that scene as if entranced, Jeok Wigang said with a smile.
“Amazing, right? Originally it’s a magic art called magic from Persia Kingdom, but I modified it to suit this place and named it the Five Elements Incantation Method. Magic sounds too much like some demon’s art.”
But you do seem like a demon.
“You have no idea how convenient it is.”
Jeok Wigang boasted.
“Is your body being unharmed also because of that magic art called the Five Elements Incantation Method?”
“No, I just took those hits with my bare body. I was touched by the sincerity of you charging forward risking your lives.”
At Jeok Wigang’s words, Jin Gwanghon swallowed dry saliva and said.
“Why on earth are you doing this to us?”
To Jin Gwanghon’s tearful question, Jeok Wigang asked back.
“Then why did you do that to other sects? Those sects asked you the exact same question.”
As Jin Gwanghon was about to open his mouth, Jeok Wigang spoke first.
“Don’t say it was for the sake of those sects. I’ll really get angry.”
A chilling aura was felt from Jeok Wigang’s body.
“That, that was… I wanted to rise to higher places and receive attention from many people.”
“Then you should have targeted sects stronger than yours. Why did you only bully weak sects?”
Jin Gwanghon had nothing to say.
“How does it feel to experience it directly? The feeling of wanting to avoid it but being unable to?”
“It’s unfair and frustrating.”
“Right? The sects that suffered under you until now endured with those feelings.”
Jin Gwanghon still had an aggrieved expression.
Seeing this, Jeok Wigang chuckled.
“Still a long way to go. Let’s meet again tomorrow.”
Jin Gwanghon was startled by the words about meeting again tomorrow.
“W-wait! I absolutely won’t attack other sects anymore! No, I’ll just close down the sect entirely!”
“Closing down won’t do. I need to make you and everyone here come to your senses so you won’t do such things again.”
“I’ll come to my senses!”
“Words aren’t enough.”
Jeok Wigang stared intently at Jin Gwanghon.
“Honestly, it’s a bit bothersome. It would be easier to just blow everyone away.”
Shiver-.
“But since I made a promise with Father, I’m trying this hard to make people out of you. If you don’t appreciate my efforts, I’ll get upset.”
Seeing Jeok Wigang’s eyes behind the Evil Spirit Mask, Jin Gwanghon finally realized. He had wanted to look like a predator, but he wasn’t a predator—he was prey.
The real predator was Jeok Wigang standing before him.
Thud-.
Jin Gwanghon collapsed weakly.
His strength had truly drained away before the real thing.
“I was wrong. I won’t… do it again.”
“Oh? This seems a bit sincere?”
He said to Jin Gwanghon with a grin.
“Just need to come a few more times.”
Jin Gwanghon raised his head with a dejected face and fainted from the powerful shock.
“Since they’re crazy about strength, it seems to take some time, but this is pretty good for a first attempt.”
Still, there were many things to fix.
First, knocking them out in one blow wasn’t very helpful for rehabilitation.
It would be more certain to keep them awake as much as possible and inflict pain to engrave it completely in their minds.
He muttered while looking around at the fallen Mad Sword Gate disciples.
“I should try that tomorrow.”
The bodies of the unconscious Mad Sword Gate disciples all trembled in unison.
They felt chills even while unconscious.
The sects belonging to the Gangseo Alliance were spending each day with blood-drying anxiety.
“It’s about time for those bastards to attack.”
“Exactly. If they’re coming, they should come quickly.”
“Sigh. This is really unbearable. How long do we have to wait for them with such trembling hearts?”
“This time we’ve made full preparations too. Let’s show them decisively.”
Everyone nodded and bit their lips tightly.
Then it became noisy outside.
“They’re coming! It’s the Mad Sword Gate bastards!”
At the watchman’s cry, the Gate Masters of the Gangseo Alliance sects stood up with resolute expressions.
“Finally, today is the day.”
“Let’s properly show them that we’re absolutely not pushovers!”
“Let’s do it!”
The Gate Masters who went outside were bewildered.
“A white flag?”
“What’s this?”
“Today I don’t feel any fighting spirit from them.”
“Aren’t they trying to mock us?”
“It doesn’t seem like that. They all look intimidated by something.”
“It could be their scheme. Everyone, don’t let your guard down.”
“Of course.”
Everyone watched the approaching Mad Sword Gate people with full vigilance.
The Mad Sword Gate warriors, Gate Master, and Jin Gwanghon reached the front of the fortress where the Gangseo Alliance had gathered.
“What kind of act is this? Do it like usual!”
At the alliance leader’s shout, Jin Gwanghon raised his head to look at him.
Then he performed a cupped fist salute and bowed his head.
“We ask forgiveness for the sins we have committed against you!”
The disciples behind him also performed cupped fist salutes in unison and bowed their waists.
An unbelievable scene.
Wasn’t Mad Sword Gate famous for never bowing their heads to others even if it meant death?
Such Mad Sword Gate was bowing and apologizing?
Everyone was bewildered by the completely unexpected situation.
“What kind of trick is this?”
“It’s not a trick. It’s sincere. We won’t attack you again.”
“Is that true?”
“Yes. If you want, we can even make a blood oath.”
At Jin Gwanghon’s words, the Gate Masters of the Gangseo Alliance urgently entered into conference.
“What do you think?”
“Isn’t this a ploy to make us open the gates?”
“I don’t think so. Look at the sword. It’s bound with white cloth. Doesn’t that mean he has no intention of attacking?”
“I think so too.”
“For now, how about we receive him? The other party extended their hand first for a peace agreement, so it doesn’t seem right to leave things like this.”
