Chapter 213 – Erotic Battle (16)
As the blood-red horse charged forward, the unmanned people in front of us stepped aside, creating a path.
Beyond that, the blood-red horse walked towards us with a wide smile, as if it couldn’t wait for what was about to happen.
“Where are you going?” it asked, grinning.
…I’m screwed.
I instinctively stepped forward in front of my women and drew my sword.
“I’ll stop it, so run away!”
“But Jin-ga!”
“You’re being reckless!”
“Are you crazy, Jin-rang?!”
They usually followed my lead, but now no one was listening to me.
“Enough, just go!”
Even my voice was filled with urgency and impatience. But it wasn’t my women who answered.
“Oh, you’re quite confident. But is it possible?”
“Kuk.”
The blood-red horse was right. It was only confident. Blocking the way like this wouldn’t create any sharpness.
The only thing that can stop or pierce through strong energy is the same level of strong energy.
Although my swordsmanship is intense enough to be at the highest level… it’s still just swordsmanship.
I can’t block the blood-red horse’s attack or cut through its body.
At best, I can withstand it for about three seconds. Literally three seconds.
When I looked back, I saw Pung So-so and Sama women who were more worried about me than themselves and couldn’t leave.
But even if it’s just three seconds.
I can’t back down.
“I’ll buy some time somehow…!”
“No, there’s no need, Sang-gong.”
Someone who was more prepared than me spoke up.
Sama-mang. She passed by my side and stood in front of the blood-red horse, confidently opening her mouth.
“Blood-red horse. I’ll go to you on my own. So can you let them go?”
“Sama-mang-nim! No, you can’t! I’d rather…!”
“Stop it! Don’t forget who we gathered around!”
And Sama-mang took another step forward.
“I promise. If you guarantee the safety of others, I will obey your orders until the end.”
“Mom…?”
Even though Sama-yeoryeong’s voice was desperate, Sama-mang continued with her words.
“But if you touch even a single hair… I will find a way to end my own life. The only thing you can have is my corpse.”
The blood-red horse blinked for a moment as it listened to Sama-mang’s story.
Chapter 213 – Erotic Battle (16)
“Well, well, long time no see, Brain Witch. No, Sama-mang. I heard you spread your legs for someone much younger than you, aiming for the protection of the Heavenly Demon… You seem to be getting along better than I thought. That thing you call the Sky Palace. I was a bit jealous.”
Sama-mang, who was biting her lips for a moment, opened her mouth with difficulty.
“…If you keep your promise, you will soon be called that.”
“Kukuku! That’s right. Ahem! Then let’s go. Oh, you’ve been bothering me for so long, so crawl on all fours as punishment. That’s the first command. Can you do it?”
“….”
Sama-mang bowed her head and slowly bent her body. The moment one of Sama-mang’s knees touched the ground.
Pabat!
The three elders of Pung So-so who had approached stealthily attacked the blood-red horse from behind at the same time.
I also approached quickly, exploding my inner energy from Yongcheon Blood, and Sama-mang did the same.
How can you trust the promise of someone like that?
And abandoning Sama-mang to survive was a problem that had already been resolved.
“Tsuuaaaat!!”
“Haat!”
A superhuman attack of five people without any gaps unfolded in an instant. However, the blood-red horse was still calm in front of it.
Just in the same posture with both arms spread out, it only let out a sigh.
I swung my sword with all my might against the blood-red horse’s seemingly disrespectful response.
Explosive charging speed, perfect posture, and flames burning so brightly that they could blind even in broad daylight.
My best Tae Sanabjeong hit the blood-red horse’s shoulder.
Kwaaang!
A lightning-fast blow.
But it’s not over yet.
The pinnacle of Pungga’s martial arts, known for its strength, the brainpower that is the best among all the skills, hit the blood-red horse’s body with a force as powerful as its destruction.
Creak! Card-deuk! Paang!
A loud explosion.
Wherever it went, the superhuman attack of the five people, who were treated as the best in the martial arts world, had more power than anyone could imagine.
Moreover, the blood-red horse was in a state where it couldn’t respond properly to the sudden attack.
Judging from the feeling at the tip of my sword, it seems that I couldn’t penetrate the protective energy, but maybe there is some internal injury…
“Ha. I knew it. You’re like that crazy woman, Ang Kal-jin.”
To my disappointment, the blood-red horse was still in perfect condition.
I tried to move my body urgently, but the creature was faster than me.
“Don’t worry. I won’t kill you.”
A blood-red energy that covers my vision. And an overwhelming force that surrounds my body.
A feeling that was similar to what I felt from Pung O-jin when he showed his full power… no, even more intense than that, made my body shudder for a moment.
Chapter 213 – Erotic Battle (16)
Due to the nature of Muryeong Shingong, I was almost immune to external influences such as life force or momentum, but I couldn’t help but hesitate for a moment.
I was overwhelmed by the blood-red horse’s aura that flashed in an instant.
Selfish, dictatorial, and vicious.
The unpleasant aura that made the viewer sick and even made them give up fighting clung to my ankles. And…
Thunk!
The guy’s fist… the blood-red energy dug into my neck.
“Cough…!”
I only took one hit, but my body lost strength and my breath burst out of my lungs.
“Kulk.”
No, it burst out like blood.
“Sanggong!”
Even Sama-mang, who was running towards me in a panic, couldn’t be faster than Sama-mang, who was already the fastest in the world of martial arts.
The guy who grabbed Sama-mang’s wrist laughed wickedly.
“Oh, right. I told you your Sanggong belongs to me now.”
“Eeek!”
Sama-mang tried to use any trick to escape, but the blood-red horse skillfully moved its wrist and blocked everything.
“Now I’ve got you. I never let go of what I’ve caught.”
“Tsk… take your dirty hands off me!”
Sama-mang spat out curses and continued to resist. But both the brainpower and the struggling gradually weakened.
Maybe it was absorbing my inner energy in that state.
As a last resort, Sama-mang’s fingertips sparkled, and soon a silver needle pierced the blood-red horse’s hand.
“Hmm? Ah, the poison of the Poison King. You did something useless. I absorbed it a long time ago.”
“Mo, monster-like…”
“Oh, monster-like. What did I say I should call myself now? Try it. Sanggong.”
“Ptah!”
Instead of answering, Sama-mang spat out saliva. Although it didn’t touch him due to the protective energy, the blood-red horse’s face stiffened as if it was dirty.
“Hmm… well, it wouldn’t be bad to educate you a little here.”
The remaining hand of the blood-red horse headed towards Sama-mang’s chest.
That bastard.
Against my will, I gave more power to my trembling body than I expected. And then I consciously chose my breath.
“Kreuk…!”
The trauma wasn’t that bad. But the internal injuries were too severe. Maybe something burst somewhere.
It doesn’t matter. With my sword in hand, I threw myself.
“Kraaaa!”
“Tsk. You’re tougher than I thought. It was just the right time. Well, if you’re this shaky, I’m looking forward to later.”
When the blood-red horse let go of Sama-mang’s wrist, Sama-mang collapsed as if all her strength had been drained in that short time.
In a simple appearance of fainting, I forced out a sword energy.
Blood rising and trembling. Unstable, but still a fairly strong sword energy.
However, the Blood-Red Horse calmly grabbed my sword with his bare hand and began to strangle my neck.
“Kreuk… Kkyug…!”
My inner energy was being sucked in at an incredible speed from where the guy’s hand touched me.
I tried to resist as much as possible with Muryeong Shingong, but the Blood-Red Horse was absorbing my inner energy faster than I could recover it.
“Heh. Is this really the peak? Your inner energy is no joke. Why is your recovery speed like this? And… Yang energy too? Is it something like the Sun and Moon Reversal?”
The Blood-Red Horse nodded his head as if he found it interesting.
“I just wanted to destroy your women in front of you, but now the story is different. There are many things to take care of, so just stay put for now.”
“You… bastard!”
“I think this is the second time I’m saying this today, but I’m not making any suggestions. …It hurts too much to be rejected.”
The Blood-Red Horse glanced at Sama-mang and then kicked my leg with his shin.
“Ugh!”
It was just an ordinary kick, not a martial art technique. But the strong energy behind it was enough to break my leg.
Thud.
I collapsed in front of Sama-mang, and the Blood-Red Horse sneered at me.
“Just wait there quietly. I’ll take care of those pests first and then come back.”
In fact, the elders of Pungga were still relentlessly attacking the Blood-Red Horse’s back even at this moment.
It didn’t mean much because of his divine energy, but maybe he wouldn’t let them go now.
The Blood-Red Horse poured out a bloody energy towards the elders who had been attacking him from behind.
The outcome was the same as when he fought me and Sama-mang.
Even the First Elder, who had been particularly hostile to me, the Second Elder, who had been relatively friendly to me, and the Third Elder, who had been urging me to have a child, all fell one by one and couldn’t defeat the Blood-Red Horse.
…And Pung So-so and Sama-yeoryeong, who had rushed to save me and Sama-mang, were also subdued.
Damn it.
“Sanggong… I’m sorry, Sanggong… It’s my fault…”
And Sama-mang, who collapsed while apologizing to me.
“Kk… You… bitch… Kkuk.”
I want to tell her that it’s okay and it’s not her fault, but I can’t.
The bloody lump was blocking my throat, and I didn’t know what was wrong with my injury from earlier.
My voice just choked, and Sama-mang’s crying grew louder.
Meanwhile, the elders who were injured were writhing on the ground a little further away.
The Blood-Red Horse lifted his foot to check if there was any reason to spare the elders or not.
Just as he was about to smash the head of the First Elder, who was closest to him.
————————————!
In the distance, a loud noise could be heard, followed by a shockwave that spread out slowly.
If the sky were to collapse and the ground were to split, would it be like this?
I couldn’t see anything as my head was buried in the ground, but I could tell that an unimaginable strike had just occurred from the sound alone.
“Tsk. There really is a monster.”
The Blood-Red Horse, who had been calm just a moment ago, ran towards us as if his enthusiasm had cooled off.
Is that Hong Yeon-hwa?
She must be fighting with Un Ga-ju by now.
If so, she wouldn’t have the time to come and help us, as she would be focused on the battle in front of her.
Hong Yeon-hwa warned us to be careful, but we ended up like this anyway.
Suddenly, I felt a slight pain and my vision lifted up.
“Kk…!”
The Blood-Red Horse grabbed my hair and forced me to look around.
“Take a good look. This is the last time your women will be wearing clothes.”
“Kkuk… cough!”
After spitting out the blood that had been blocking my throat, I felt a little easier to breathe. But what was the point of coming here now?
“Oh, the people of Pungga can look forward to it. If I get bored, I’ll let my subordinates have a turn. They deserve a reward too, don’t they?”
“I’ll… kill you!”
“Heh. If you can, try it.”
With a sneering smile, the Blood-Red Horse slammed my head back into the ground and headed towards the fallen women.
It goes without saying that there was no one to help us.
Risking your life for others is a difficult thing to do, and there’s even less reason to do it for strangers.
And if you’re going to risk your life and still end up dead, there’s no need to say anything more.
The only one who might have a chance is Hong Yeon-hwa, but…
Even if it’s Hong Yeon-hwa, she wouldn’t be able to take down Un Ga-ju in one blow, so it would take some time for her to come and help.
Suddenly, I remembered the first time I participated in the Royal Martial Arts Competition.
I thought it would be enough to just hold out, but it was such a careless thought.
In the end, even when the Blood-Red Horse tried to take my women away, I couldn’t do anything.
This helplessness is the price of carelessness.
…No.
Is there really nothing I can do?
Both of my legs are broken, and I can’t recover my inner energy because of my injuries.
But still. Even now. There’s something I can do.
I haven’t truly risked my life yet.
After briefly looking at the fallen Pung So-so and Sama-mang, I closed my eyes.
A trance that I had done several times before.
The inside that I observed was a mess, to the point where it wouldn’t be strange if I died right now.
It doesn’t matter.
Just a little deeper.
Beyond the bloodline, beyond the mind, to the foundation of everything.
It didn’t take long before I reached the bottom.
Normally, I would never have touched it. But in this situation, there was no choice.
Thud.
I activated my innate energy.
