Legend of the Evil Martial God
Chapter 124
Taegam watched Ye Yahyeon leisurely with his arms crossed.
His expression seemed to be enjoying something interesting.
On the other hand, Ye Yahyeon’s condition was getting worse and worse.
Even though he was concentrating all his energy on driving out the poison, it wasn’t easily expelled.
Rather, the more he tried to expel it, the deeper it burrowed into his body.
Cough-.
Finally, Ye Yahyeon coughed up dark red blood.
He was slowly dying.
“Damn it….”
To think he would die so futilely.
No, wait.
If he was going to die so futilely like this, he thought he should at least land one blow on that bastard.
Since he was going to die anyway, it was do or die.
Sensing that Ye Yahyeon’s momentum had changed, Taegam chuckled.
“Wouldn’t it be better to save that strength to prevent the poison from spreading?”
“I’m going to die anyway…. I’ll just die fighting.”
“Oh! I really like that mindset. But what to do? Your poison doesn’t work on me, does it?”
“Who said I’d attack with poison!”
Ye Yahyeon drew the Suchun Sword and charged toward Taegam.
“How ridiculous. To think you’d try to do something to me with that mere piece of metal.”
“Says the one who’s afraid of that mere piece of metal and dodges it!”
“Dodge? Hehehe. I don’t need to dodge something like that.”
Taegam scoffed at Ye Yahyeon’s words and blocked the Suchun Sword flying toward him with his bare hand.
Clang-.
In that instant, Taegam discovered his own hand flying through the air.
“Huh?”
And he realized that the hand that should have been attached was gone.
“Huh…”
It was surprising.
A weapon that cuts his own body.
“That weapon is pretty good.”
“Kekeke. Worry about your body being torn to shreds! Heaven Flash Chaotic Flower!”
Even while continuously spitting blood, he gathered all his energy and unleashed his martial arts.
Swish swish slash-.
Wherever the Suchun Sword passed, wounds appeared and blood flowed down on Taegam.
Before long, one of his arms had fallen off.
“Kekeke. How’s that? You damn bastard.”
“Not bad. To push me this far while poisoned by my toxin. I acknowledge you.”
“Ugh, until the end… Cough! Cough!”
Ye Yahyeon tried to say something but spat blood and collapsed to the ground.
“Until the end what?”
“…Acting calm… I took your right wrist and left arm, so you’ll also have a hard time living from now on.”
“Ah, this?”
Taegam looked back and forth at his severed wrist and arm, then laughed.
“You’re dying but still worrying about me… You really were a decent guy. I should ease your worries on your way out, shouldn’t I?”
Bubble bubble-.
Red foam bubbled up from the severed wounds.
Pop pop-.
New hands and arms grew from where the wrist and arm had been severed.
“Ta-da! I didn’t have a wrist and arm, but now I do!”
“This… crazy… Monster.”
Everything he had risked his life for had become meaningless.
The shock made the poison spread faster, and now it had reached its limit.
“Qu, quickly kill me…”
“Me? Why? You look perfectly fine right now.”
He looked around and then approached a rock, sitting down there.
Ye Yahyeon was annoyed by Taegam’s appearance of watching him die, but there was nothing he could do.
As his consciousness gradually became hazy and his body tilted toward the ground.
Thud-.
He felt something catching him.
Is it that monster?
Damn it, do whatever you want.
With a feeling of despair, he was about to let his body go limp.
“What? Why are you so pathetic?”
This voice is.
Ye Yahyeon slowly raised his head.
“Older Brother…”
He had been getting sucked into darkness, but now he saw light.
In his fading consciousness, he heard Taegam’s voice.
“What? Where did you suddenly appear from?”
A voice that seemed flustered.
A smile naturally appeared on his face.
He had to pull himself together.
He would definitely watch that damn bastard get brutally beaten by Older Brother.
Jeok Wigang easily ignored Taegam’s question and examined Ye Yahyeon’s condition.
“Poisoned? Wasn’t poison your specialty?”
“I… must have been too arrogant…”
“Right? That’s why I always told you to be humble.”
“You’re right. Older Brother…”
“I’ll heal you. Wait.”
Jeok Wigang muttered an incantation.
“Poison Removal Without Trace, Evil Qi Complete Dispersal, Pure Flow Full Body, Body and Mind Both Pure”
As he brought his hand, flickering like blue flames, to Ye Yahyeon’s body, it instantly blazed up as if his entire body had caught fire.
At the same time, black energy surged from Ye Yahyeon’s body as if the poison was being burned away.
Taegam realized that Jeok Wigang, who had suddenly appeared, was neutralizing his poison.
“A human bastard is detoxifying my poison?”
It was unbelievable.
“Do you think I’ll just stand here and watch!”
Charalak-.
The scales on Taegam’s body began to tremble violently.
Papapapat-.
More than dozens of scales shot toward Jeok Wigang.
Perperperpuk-.
They all hit Jeok Wigang’s body, who couldn’t move properly while neutralizing the poison.
“Damn bastard! Try detoxifying this too!”
Tututtuk-.
“Huh?”
But the scales that he thought had embedded in the body fell powerlessly to the ground.
“What? They didn’t penetrate?”
Then Jeok Wigang frowned and said.
“Geez! What the hell? So dirty.”
“Dirty…”
He looked at Jeok Wigang with a bewildered expression, then his face soon contorted.
“I see. You have the Vajra Indestructible Body, don’t you? That’s why you confidently revealed yourself like this.”
Jeok Wigang asked Ye Yahyeon.
“What? That talking lizard?”
“Liza… rd? Kraaaah!”
“Ah, shut up!”
Whoosh-.
Crack-.
“Kugh!”
Taegam suddenly felt pain and flew backward for a long while before crashing into the wall.
Crash-.
He had been sent flying by the Fist Wind that Jeok Wigang unleashed.
Watching Jeok Wigang blow away an opponent much stronger than himself like swatting a fly, Ye Yahyeon was once again amazed.
“As expected, Older Brother is incredible.”
“Why are you saying something so obvious now? But what is that thing?”
“It’s Dongchang’s Taegam.”
“That lizard?”
“Yes.”
“That’s from Hundred Demon Heaven, right?”
“That’s correct. It’s from the Dragon Scale Tribe of Hundred Demon Heaven.”
“Dragon Scale Tribe?”
“Yes. It’s one of the races that came from another dimension. It’s said the Heavenly Lord gave them that name because they resemble dragons.”
“Dragon my ass… But if it was enough to affect you, that poison must be no ordinary thing.”
Hiss-.
Black steam rose from Ye Yahyeon’s body.
Hiss-.
“Cough! Cough!”
Ye Yahyeon kept coughing and spitting up black liquid.
The black steam soon turned white, and Ye Yahyeon’s darkened complexion was returning to normal.
Soon Jeok Wigang removed his hands from Ye Yahyeon’s body, and he stood up with a refreshed expression.
“Thank you, Older Brother. Thanks to you, I survived.”
“Forget it. You’re my younger brother, so of course I had to save you.”
Ye Yahyeon smiled.
Until now, he had been forcibly following Jeok Wigang, but not anymore.
Ye Yahyeon truly felt that he wanted to serve him as his Dae-hyeong.
Why did he feel this way?
When he was dying just moments ago, Jeok Wigang’s appearance was light itself.
And he felt a warmth he had never experienced before.
Now he realized that he could never leave Jeok Wigang’s side.
“What? What’s with that expression?”
“I’m going to treat Dae-hyeong well from now on.”
At Ye Yahyeon’s words, Jeok Wigang chuckled.
“Forget it. You’re already doing well, so just keep doing what you’re doing.”
“Yes.”
At the moment the two were conversing.
Kwakwakwang-.
From the place where Taegam had been blown away, a massive explosion occurred and a huge black shadow appeared.
Taegam stood there with a hideous appearance.
“He’s become even more lizard-like than before.”
“It’s a characteristic of the Dragon Scale Clan. That’s probably his true form.”
“Is his true form stronger?”
“Yes.”
“Really? How much is that?”
“It appears to be about fifty percent of his true form.”
“He hasn’t fully transformed yet?”
“It seems that way.”
Jeok Wigang looked at Taegam with curiosity.
“To give me this much shock. You’re no ordinary fellow. Who are you?”
At Taegam’s question, Jeok Wigang smiled wickedly and said.
“Me? You should know well. I’m Jeok Wigang.”
“Jeok Wigang? You’re saying you’re Jeok Wigang?”
“That’s right.”
“I thought you were just a bookworm, but you were hiding some skills.”
“I never hid anything. Hiding means a lizard walking around in human form.”
Jeok Wigang spoke to Ye Yahyeon.
“Stay back a bit. I need to play with that thing.”
“Yes. Have a pleasant time, Older Brother.”
Ye Yahyeon quickly moved far away with a grin.
This was delightful.
Now he just had to watch that damn Dragon Scale tribe member get brutally beaten by Jeok Wigang.
Seeing Ye Yahyeon completely recovered, Taegam showed a surprised expression.
“When I heard you had healed the Emperor, I didn’t believe it… but it was true. How exactly did you heal him?”
“With magic arts.”
“Magic arts… Was it also those magic arts that blocked my attack just now?”
“That’s right.”
“I thought I only needed to be careful of martial arts in the Central Plains… The way you use magic arts is just like magic.”
“Oh? You know about magic?”
When Jeok Wigang showed interest, Taegam tilted his head.
“Do you know magic?”
“I have many things I want to ask you. Why don’t you just cooperate quietly? Don’t get beaten up for nothing.”
“Kekeke. You seem quite pleased with yourself for blocking one of my attacks, but if you think that was my full power, you’re gravely mistaken.”
“I know. I just heard. About fifty percent of your power, right?”
“Forty percent!”
Taegam flared up.
“Fifty percent or forty percent, whatever.”
“Kekekek. I’ll show you directly how big a difference of ten percent is.”
Crackle-.
Rip-.
Tear-.
Taegam’s body transformed greatly as his clothes tore away, and simultaneously his body became covered in silver scales.
His face had changed so hideously that it could no longer be called human.
“Grrr! I’ll kill you both!”
Thud-.
Boom-.
Just by kicking off the ground and charging forward, the ground was deeply gouged with a powerful shockwave.
Taegam, who moved in front of Jeok Wigang in an instant, wildly swung his sharp claws that seemed capable of cutting through anything.
“Dragon Blood Mad Scale Slash!”
Whoosh- Whoosh- Whoosh-.
Slash slash-.
Rip- Rip-.
Crrrack-!
Where the claws passed was deeply gouged as if scratched by a giant monster, smashing the ground to pieces.
However, he couldn’t hit Jeok Wigang who was dodging here and there.
“This rat bastard!”
The speed became even faster.
The waves grew increasingly fierce.
Kwakwakwa-boom-!
The aftermath of the waves changed the surrounding terrain, and even Ye Yahyeon struggled under that pressure.
“Damn monsters…”
The Dragon Scale Tribe unleashing tremendous attacks was sickening, but Jeok Wigang dodging them as if it were nothing was also impressive.
But why is he dodging?
Could it be that getting hit by those attacks would cause damage?
If it were the usual Jeok Wigang, he wouldn’t have dodged and would have just taken the hits, or else crushed the enemy in one blow.
Is the Dragon Scale Tribe really that difficult for even Jeok Wigang to handle?
Then the Heavenly Lord of Hundred Demon Heaven wouldn’t even be able to face them at all.
Probably, that wouldn’t be the case.
The strength of Jeok Wigang that Ye Yahyeon knew wasn’t just that level.
There must be some reason why he’s only dodging without fighting back.
Thinking that way, he observed Jeok Wigang carefully.
And soon a smile formed on Ye Yahyeon’s lips.
His guess was right.
Right now, Jeok Wigang was observing the Dragon Scale Tribe with curious eyes.
