Spear Heaven Martial Emperor Episode 151
“Keuaaaaaaak!”
A desperate scream echoed through the air.
It was Yeom Cheon’s.
His chest had been slashed, but it was slightly shallow so his life wasn’t cut short.
However, he had undoubtedly suffered a serious wound nonetheless.
“You bastard…!”
He swung his axe widely and unleashed his strongest technique form.
Great Wind Three Strikes.
The wind-wrapped axe charged at Namgung Hyeok with terrifying power.
Namgung Hyeok didn’t bother to block it and dodged instead.
There was no reason to face head-on the death throes of someone who was already dying.
After evading his opponent’s attack, he thrust his sword again.
Pukwahak!
A stream of blood burst forth from his chest.
That was Yeom Cheon’s end.
He died instantly with his eyes wide open.
“Mon, monster…”
“Run away!”
“Uaaaaaaah!”
The Black Dragon Society warriors who witnessed this began fleeing in panic.
Despite their overwhelming numbers, they realized they couldn’t face Namgung Hyeok.
However, those who were fleeing had no choice but to stop in their tracks.
“Where do you think you’re going?”
“!?”
Warriors dressed in green blocked their path.
“Gre, Green Snake Unit!”
Their identity was none other than Green Snake Corps Members dispatched from the Sichuan Tang Family.
Without any intention of investigating the situation further, they immediately threw hidden weapons.
Peobeobuk!
“Keuaaaak!”
“Euhuk!”
Those who had been fleeing first screamed and collapsed.
Terror filled the faces of the Black Dragon Society warriors.
The middle-aged man who appeared to be the leader of the Green Snake Unit shouted at the Black Dragon Society warriors.
“Who gave you permission to run away? You trash. If you’re warriors, then fight to the last man! If you won’t do that…”
The middle-aged man released killing intent in all directions.
The Black Dragon Society warriors saw the illusion of a massive green serpent baring its fangs behind the middle-aged man.
“The Green Snake Unit of the Sichuan Tang Family. You’ve graced this humble place with your presence.”
Namgung Hyeok sneered at the middle-aged man, and only then did the middle-aged man’s gaze fall upon Namgung Hyeok.
The two men’s eyes clashed with a sharp intensity.
“Seonghwa Gate Master Namgung Hyeok. I’m sorry, but you’ll have to die here.”
“What’s the reason? Are you making this reckless move just because you’re afraid that your family’s medical arts might be leaked? Even though a war might break out between your side and ours?”
“There will be no war between the Tang Family and Seonghwa Gate. All of this will be handled as the work of the Black Dragon Society.”
“Hehe. So you’re planning to manipulate the crime scene once I’m dead.”
Namgung Hyeok chuckled softly.
“I roughly understand now. Ho Young’s younger sister probably knows information that’s unfavorable to the Tang Family. Secret information that absolutely cannot be leaked to the outside. So you’re gritting your teeth and trying to eliminate everyone involved.”
At Namgung Hyeok’s words, the middle-aged man emitted killing intent.
“You bastard…”
“But what can you do? I have no intention of dying for you.”
He lowered his Azure Heaven Sword and smirked.
The middle-aged man’s eyes flashed like a snake’s, and the corners of his mouth curved up.
“Do you think five injured people can escape from our encirclement?”
“Sorry, but I’ve survived and returned from even worse hells. Compared to that, your encirclement is nothing special.”
“Hmph! Such bravado.”
“Shall we test whether it’s bravado or not?”
Namgung Hyeok answered thus and secretly sent telepathic communication to the four people with him.
[I’ll break through a path, so run south.]
[I refuse. Setting aside that you’re my younger brother, as a Taoist of Wudang Sect, I cannot abandon someone in danger and leave.]
Baek Hyeon flatly refused.
Instead of saying anything more, he stepped forward and spoke.
“Please calm down for a moment. I am Baek Hyeon of Wudang Sect.”
“Wudang Sect?”
The middle-aged man’s brow furrowed.
“You seem to find it hard to believe. Then please look at this sword.”
Baek Hyeon raised his sword and showed it to the warriors who had surrounded them. Dang Jihyeok, who had been standing beside the middle-aged man, widened his eyes.
“Pine Gate Ancient Sword!”
“That means you’re truly a Taoist of Wudang Sect. Why is a Wudang Sect person together with the Seonghwa Gate Master?”
“There are circumstances involved. However, for my sake and my master’s sake, won’t you stop fighting for now?”
“Who is your master that… no, wait. Did you say Baek Hyeon?”
The middle-aged man’s eyes widened as if something had occurred to him.
“Don’t tell me you’re that Baek Hyeon, disciple of the Taiji Sword Immortal?”
“Yes.”
Baek Hyeon nodded confidently.
At this, the expressions of the Sichuan Tang Family warriors became serious.
Taiji Sword Immortal Cheon Uja.
He was a member of the Ten Greatest Masters Under Heaven and a warrior regarded as a living legend.
But the young man before them was the disciple of such a person?
“Damn it all…!”
The middle-aged man’s eyes widened in disbelief.
The opponent was no different from gunpowder that could blow up the entire Sichuan Tang Family if handled wrongly.
Baek Hyeon, who also knew this, spoke with a calm expression.
“Stop fighting and withdraw now. If you do, we will overlook your attempt to kill us just now. This is a promise made on our sect’s honor, so you can rest assured.”
“Kuk!”
“First Elder! You must not give in!”
At that moment, Dang Jihyeok shouted in an urgent voice.
He glared at Namgung Hyeok and Baek Hyeon, then quickly continued speaking.
“Even if the opponent is a disciple of the Taiji Sword Immortal, if we kill and bury them here, there will be no harm to the main house. Please make your decision!”
“You…”
Just as Baek Hyeon was about to say something to him.
The middle-aged man called First Elder half-opened his eyes.
“Jihyeok, you’re right! Anyway, as long as the Taiji Sword Immortal isn’t nearby, even if that bastard dies, Wudang Sect will think it was the Black Dragon Society’s doing. In that case!”
The First Elder threw a flying dagger in a surprise attack while shouting.
“Kill them! After killing them, bury them here without a trace!”
Clang!
Baek Hyeon deflected the flying dagger thrown by the First Elder.
He glared at the First Elder and Dang Jihyeok with fierce eyes.
Namgung Hyeok chuckled and patted his shoulder, saying.
“That’s why I said I’d clear a path for you.”
“I didn’t think they’d come out like this. What kind of secret are they hiding to act like that?”
“Whatever it is, it must be a secret very disadvantageous to the Tang Family. We haven’t even heard that secret yet, but they’re acting like this out of their own anxiety.”
Namgung Hyeok said that and drew explosive energy from his Fire Essence.
Whoosh!
Flames erupted from his entire body.
Namgung Hyeok looked at Wang Pyeong and his other two subordinates and said.
“Do you remember the defensive formation I taught you before? The one deployed with the Three-One Formation.”
“Yes!”
“Don’t worry about me and focus on surviving. If you see an opening, escape from the battlefield and report all these facts to the Namgung Family and the main sect.”
Namgung Hyeok gave those instructions and then shouted toward the hesitating Black Dragon Society warriors.
“Listen up, you Black Dragon Society bastards! You heard what that old man just babbled, right?”
“!?”
“For those who didn’t understand properly, let me explain – those bastards are planning to bury us and then pin the blame on you! To do that, there can’t be a single witness left. In other words, they’re going to kill all of you too!”
“Wh-what is that bastard saying! It’s a scheme to divide us, don’t listen!”
The Tang Family’s First Elder shouted in shock.
But the Black Dragon Society warriors’ expressions were already completely distorted.
They weren’t fools either.
Even if they could safely escape this place, the Black Dragon Society would likely have to bear the wrath of Wudang Sect and the Taiji Sword Immortal.
“I, Namgung Hyeok, Seonghwa Gate Master, swear on my name. Fight with me to defeat those bastards and break through the encirclement! If you do, I will take responsibility and accept every single one of you.”
“…!”
In the midst of this, Namgung Hyeok’s proposal gave hope to the Black Dragon Society warriors.
Just as the Black Dragon Society warriors were contemplating this.
Thwack!
“Aaaaagh!”
Dang Jihyeok threw hidden weapons at the Black Dragon Society warriors who had been standing still, and everyone looked at him in surprise.
He shouted in an urgent voice.
“Don’t fall for the Seonghwa Gate Master’s tricks! If you follow that bastard, he’ll kill you all!”
“This… crazy bastard!”
But this had the opposite effect.
Because the Black Dragon Society warriors who saw this burst into anger.
Threats made in a situation where they might already die were useless.
The First Elder sighed at the sight.
‘This stupid fool!’
If he had just stayed quiet, there was a possibility the Black Dragon Society warriors wouldn’t have listened to Namgung Hyeok’s words.
The Green Snake Corps far outnumbered their enemies and their skills were superior too.
But if he provoked them so clumsily and lit the fire?
“Seonghwa Gate Master! We will follow you!”
“These damn Tang Family bastards!”
Roughly just under a hundred warriors switched sides.
They had accepted Namgung Hyeok’s persuasion.
And Namgung Hyeok grinned as he rushed past them.
Soon.
Whoosh!
The second technique of the Sacred Fire Ultimate Sword unfolded.
Fire Dance Chain.
The Sacred Fire that embroidered the void moved chaotically.
The trajectory-twisting sword strike instantly severed the necks of three Green Snake Corps members.
“Follow me!”
“Waaaaah!”
Emboldened by this sight, the Black Dragon Society warriors charged at the Green Snake Corps.
“These, these vermin!”
“Block them!”
“Don’t let them break through the defense line!”
Urgent voices erupted from the Green Snake Corps side as well.
They threw hidden weapons and swung small swords to counter the Black Dragon Society warriors.
But as it turned into chaotic battle, they couldn’t apply their specialty poison.
‘Good. I’ve succeeded in seizing the initiative.’
Namgung Hyeok thought calmly as he weaved wildly through the Green Snake Corps.
For now, they had seized control of the momentum.
But it wouldn’t last long.
Even though the poison was sealed, there was fundamentally a large gap in skill between the Green Snake Unit and the Black Dragon Society warriors.
‘Besides, we’re outnumbered as well.’
In that case.
The most certain method among what he could do now was…
‘Cut off the enemy commander’s head!’
Namgung Hyeok’s lips twisted cruelly.
Whoosh!
Flames burst forth at the same time.
The Sacred Fire rising from his Fire Core infused his entire body with overwhelming vitality.
Namgung Hyeok charged forward and rushed toward Dang Jihyeok.
“Th-this crazy bastard! Don’t come near me!”
Dang Jihyeok was terrified seeing Namgung Hyeok’s approach.
No matter how he thought about it, his skill was below Namgung Hyeok’s.
So if they engaged in close combat, there was a high chance his head would be severed within three seconds.
But shouting like that wouldn’t make the approaching Namgung Hyeok stop.
Just as Namgung Hyeok reached right in front of Dang Jihyeok.
“…!”
The charging Namgung Hyeok suddenly stopped and immediately swung his sword to the side.
Clang!
With the sound of metal, Namgung Hyeok’s body was pushed sideways.
He looked with sharp eyes at those who had blocked his path.
They were warriors wearing purple robes with corpse-like pale faces.
“Th-they came!”
Seeing them, Dang Jihyeok shouted filled with joy.
These were the real elites he had been waiting for.
He burst into loud laughter as if everything was settled now and shouted.
“Uhahahaha! Namgung Hyeok! Now that the Blood Demon Corps is here, you’re finished!”
“…”
Namgung Hyeok briefly lowered his sword and gazed at them quietly.
For having his attack blocked, his eyes were calm.
It seemed as if he was thinking deeply about something.
After a moment.
Namgung Hyeok, having reached some conclusion, asked.
“You guys, don’t tell me you’ve touched the forbidden?”
“!?”
Dang Jihyeok’s face turned to shock upon hearing those words.
“What do you mean by that…”
“The ones who just appeared.”
Namgung Hyeok spoke in a sharp voice.
“They’re all Corpse Blood Poison People, aren’t they.”
