Spear Heaven Martial Emperor Episode 101

 

 

“What the hell is….”

The Makriseoga warrior who had received orders to eliminate the Seonghwa Sect members gaped with his jaw nearly dropping at the scene unfolding before his eyes.

Just two people.

Only two people were toying with Makriseoga’s martial force.

And this was a unit that was usually considered quite elite at that.

“D-damn it all!”

“Stop those bastards!”

The Senior Members of Makriseoga who had been giving orders from a safe place flew into a rage.

However, those carrying out the orders couldn’t stop them as easily as words suggested.

Why?

Swoosh!

Thud!

“Gack!”

“Gaaaah!”

Because those trying to stop the two people couldn’t last even a single exchange before falling.

And without even slowing down their speed in the slightest.

“W-what kind of monsters are these bastards.”

The Senior Members fell into confusion.

The martial prowess of the two people they had thought were simple messengers seemed to be on par with anyone from Makriseoga.

They couldn’t actively block the siblings because they valued their own lives.

They were just urging their subordinates to try to buy time.

But it had little effect.

No matter how many people swarmed them….

When So Geomlip’s spear swept through, their lives were as good as gone.

And whenever anyone tried to exploit his openings and rush in, So Yeon behind him would detect it like a ghost and snipe them.

‘A perfect combination.’

So Geomlip broke through from the front, and So Yeon supported from behind.

They moved in perfect sync as if they were one body.

Soon.

The two people arrived at Makriseoga’s Main Gate before long.

If they could just break through this place, there would be an inn nearby where they had left their horses.

Once they reached that place, they would be able to escape easily enough.

But just as they were thinking that.

“You’re quite skilled bastards.”

A giant man blocked their path.

“Hmm.”

So Geomlip stopped running and looked at the giant man.

Unlike the enemies he could kill in one strike like before, this was a considerable master.

So Yeon also looked at their opponent with tense eyes.

The giant man let his heavy Great Sword hang down as he introduced himself.

“I am Makri Yuho. I’m the Leader of Makriseoga’s martial force and called the Great Wind Sword. What are your aliases?”

“Sorry, but we don’t have any.”

“What? Experts like you don’t have aliases?”

“We built our skills rolling around battlefields with our Lord. If we had to say, we do have nicknames of sorts.”

“Then reveal them.”

“Yaksha and Rakshasa.”

“What?”

“I’m Yaksha, and my younger sister was called Rakshasa. Nostalgic nicknames.”

So Geomlip said this as his eyes flashed with killing intent.

“That should be enough for introductions, right?”

“…!”

“Then get out of the way.”

As So Geomlip said this, he unleashed his martial arts, the Iron Law Seven Forms.

The technique he deployed was the seventh form, Iron Rain Piercing Charge.

Terrifying thrusts poured down like rain.

Makri Yuho panicked and formed a Sword Screen, but it was torn apart like paper by the sharp spear strikes.

“Gaaaaaaah!”

Countless holes appeared in his body.

Thump!

In the end, Makri Yuho collapsed without even being able to resist properly.

Stepping over Makri Yuho’s corpse, the two people ran again.

Finally, the two people who had shattered Makriseoga’s tightly closed Main Gate to pieces were able to escape outside Makriseoga.

“Catch them!”

“We can’t let them escape! It’s the Family Head’s order!”

Desperate voices could be heard from behind, somehow trying to catch them.

So Yeon smiled coldly as she turned around.

She stopped running and pulled out a solid iron arrow from her quiver, drawing it back forcefully.

At the same time.

So Yeon’s Devastating Technique unfolded as she explosively released her Internal Energy.

Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-bang!

That single strike called Meteor Fall cleanly killed those who were trying to pursue them beyond the Main Gate.

All the people caught up in it became tattered corpses scattered about.

Even those following behind had to retreat several steps, unable to withstand the shockwave.

“This crazy….”

Someone muttered.

Yaksha and Rakshasa?

At first it seemed ridiculous, but now they could see these were people who suited such aliases more than anyone.

They really seemed like they were watching Yaksha and Rakshasa descending upon a battlefield.

“That’s what you get for messing with people who came as messengers.”

So Yeon snorted and turned around sharply.

While the siblings deployed their Movement Technique and departed, none of those inside dared to step forward and try to catch them.

Because if they stepped forward, they were certain they would be next.

And….

A little later, when Makri Jesin heard the news, he flew into a rage.

“You incompetent fools! The enemies were right under your noses and you let them escape?”

He ordered the family’s most elite unit to be sent to capture the two people.

But the siblings had already mounted their horses and left Suzhou.

In the end, they had no choice but to return without any gains.

 

* * *

 

Several days later.

Changzhou in Jiangsu Province.

Flutter!

There, the banner of Seonghwa Sect fluttered as hundreds of disciples gathered in one place.

It was all the Seonghwa Sect members they could scrape together, leaving behind some forces to defend the main base.

Namgung Hyeok stood on the battlefield as the leader guiding them.

“What’s the current situation with the enemies?”

“Their troop numbers seem similar to ours. However, their morale doesn’t look particularly high.”

Jeon Wook’s words were accurate.

Was it because many had witnessed with their own eyes the terrifying martial prowess of So Geomlip and So Yeon during their escape a few days ago?

The morale of the enemies gathered to face the Seonghwa Sect didn’t look very good.

To be honest, it seemed like they had been dragged out half by force.

“Let’s sweep away those filthy demonic bastards!”

“Victory to the Seonghwa Sect!”

“Uwaaaaaaah!”

In contrast, the Seonghwa Sect’s side had morale that was overflowing to an excessive degree.

The difference between the two groups seemed starkly divided.

However, Namgung Hyeok didn’t indulge in unconditional optimism.

“Even rotten, these were the guys called the Three Rivers of Jiangsu. Perhaps they have hidden forces or masters. Moreover, there might be support from the Blood Heaven Sect.”

“Yes. We must not let our guard down. However, we shouldn’t be unnecessarily frightened either.”

“Exactly.”

Namgung Hyeok chuckled and agreed with Baek Yeonhu’s words beside him.

As he said, it wouldn’t be good to overestimate the enemy in the name of being too cautious.

That way, they might struggle even against enemies they could easily defeat.

“Anyway, we’ll know once we engage. So Yeon.”

“Yes. Lord.”

“Give the enemies a greeting.”

“I receive your command.”

So Yeon raised her bow and nocked a specially crafted giant iron arrow to the bowstring.

Kwaaaak!

The sound of drawing the bowstring rang out particularly loudly.

She drew the arrow with all her might toward that distant place and shot it.

Kwaaaaaaaang!

“Keuaaaaaaak!”

“It’s that one! The Demon Archer has appeared!”

An explosion occurred and turmoil could be seen in the enemy camp.

So Yeon listened to their screams and continuously fired arrows.

“Run away!”

“Pull the position back!”

With numerous shouts, the Makriseoga forces could be seen retreating in panic.

At that moment, Namgung Hyeok sent a signal. It was a signal to attack.

“Wahahahaha!”

“Strike!”

“Show them the power of the Salt Island faction!”

At that moment, Ho Young, Baek Ya, and Maeng Seungji led their subordinates charging out from three directions each.

They took charge of the left wing, center, and right wing respectively, ravaging the enemy camp that had already been disrupted and devastated once.

Occasionally, enemy masters stepped forward to try to stop this, but they only fell helplessly at Ho Young’s hands and departed from this world.

“At this rate, there won’t even be a need for the main force to step in.”

“It seems those alone could inflict great damage on the enemies.”

Ho Young aside, this was Baek Ya and Maeng Seungji’s first large-scale real battle, yet they were doing remarkably well.

It really felt like they could win with just these forces.

‘Did I overestimate Makriseoga’s strength too much?’

It was when even Namgung Hyeok was having such thoughts.

“Kill the Seonghwa Sect bastards!”

“Move quickly!”

Thud thud thud thud!

At that moment, new forces appeared from the southeast.

Surprisingly, they had the Sado Region’s emblem on their flags.

“Ho.”

Namgung Hyeok realized what the situation was and laughed as if finding it interesting.

“Did they finally succeed in winning over the Sado Region?”

That meant Makriseoga had not only somehow stopped the war with the Sado Region but had also made them their allies.

“Reporting! We’ve confirmed approximately five hundred troops coming down from the north! They’re believed to be forces from the Yangtze Waterway!”

On top of that, unexpected new forces appeared.

Perhaps those were reinforcements sent by the Blood Heaven Sect?

Unlike the beginning, they now had a considerable numerical disadvantage.

If they were surrounded like this, even they would be in a dangerous situation.

Namgung Hyeok pondered briefly, then blew the horn signaling retreat.

“Retreat!”

Following Namgung Hyeok’s command, the three units that had been wreaking havoc in the enemy camp returned without hesitation.

Namgung Hyeok took them and pulled his forces back.

The first battle with Makriseoga ended like that.

 

* * *

 

“Damn it all!”

Makri Jesin heard the damage report and spat out fierce curses.

Their side’s damage was more severe than expected. Originally, to lure the enemies deep, they had intended to pretend to be defeated on purpose…

‘At this rate, it won’t be pretending!’

Moreover, the enemies had come in until the very last moment but retreated at the sound of a single horn.

That meant there was someone among the enemies with excellent ability to read situations.

As a result, Makriseoga suffered two hundred casualties without gaining any benefit.

“Still, it’s fortunate that reinforcements came. If they hadn’t arrived in time, we would have suffered even greater damage.”

Makri Sang spoke in a somewhat relieved voice.

Meanwhile, two forces approached, each leading their escorts.

They were warriors from the Sado Region and the Yangtze Waterway.

“Makriseoga Lord. What a pathetic state you’re in.”

The Yellow-Robed Man who approached as the Sado Region’s representative mocked Makri Jesin with those words.

Makri Jesin’s face turned red, but he said nothing.

If he made any verbal mistake and the Sado Region left, only they would suffer losses.

So he endured the humiliation.

“You’ll definitely give us the promised reward when the war ends, right?”

“Of course. And our family will support the Sado Region to have more influence in Jiangsu Province.”

Makri Jesin reassured the pressing Yellow-Robed Man as if telling him not to worry.

Then the middle-aged man from the Yangtze Waterway spoke.

“Let’s discuss compensation later. What’s important now is whether we can defeat the Seonghwa Sect with these forces.”

The middle-aged man surveyed the battlefield with serious eyes.

Compared to Makriseoga’s side which was almost devastated, the Seonghwa Sect hadn’t suffered even slight damage.

“Even if our numbers are twice theirs, their strength can’t be ignored. If we’re careless, there’s plenty of possibility that our side could be annihilated.”

The Yangtze Waterway and Blood Heaven Sect had already been defeated by the Seonghwa Sect too many times.

So they intended to continue the fight in the most cautious direction possible.

“Do you have some kind of method?”

Makri Jesin asked with eyes full of expectation.

The middle-aged man nodded and instead of answering, looked somewhere.

“!?”

Makri Jesin couldn’t help but be surprised.

Because there were men in wolf masks giving off an ominous atmosphere.

Makri Jesin knew their identity.

“Blood Wolf Squad…!”
