At Cheon Mubaeck’s words, the Ten Stars turned his head in a flustered state. The pupils of the Ten Stars, who had seen Cheon Mubaeck, shook.

How could he not know that face? The one who had annihilated the Blood Demon Sect, which had been quite useful to them, and had eliminated two of the Blood Ghost Valley’s executives.

“Cheon Mubaeck!”

“Oh ho. You know.”

A smile bloomed brightly on Cheon Mubaeck’s face. It was evident that he was genuinely happy to meet him.

“You look exactly the same. Only your voice is a little different.”

He looked exactly like the old man named Gu-seong who had fled from Shaolin.

What was different was the position and posture of his sword.

“You’re left-handed.”

That guy seemed to be right-handed.

“Where are you spouting such nonsense!”

Cheon Mubaeck raised his eyes and stared at the Ten Stars. Beneath his happy expression, a hidden ferocity stirred. The Ten Stars, who had looked into that depth, flinched for a moment.

‘A monster is hiding in his eyes!’

A chill seeped into his whole body. It was not a kind of psychology that could be shaken off. It wrapped around his whole body. Fear bound him as if a giant serpent were crushing its prey with its body before swallowing it.

Kwajik!

The Ten Stars bit his lip hard. His lips burst, and hot blood went down the back of his throat. To feel fear just by looking at his eyes. This was humiliating, but paradoxically, it meant that he was terribly dangerous.

The Ten Stars took a step back and whistled.

At the same time, the two Bidaras who had been driving the Flying Sword Sect warriors on the floor jumped up onto the roof.

Both of them were saber masters who used sabers.

“Kill him!”

From the left and right, the sabers simultaneously poured out a blue edge. In the center, the Ten Stars drew his sword and rushed in.

It was a cunning attack. It was like a tightly woven net. There was nowhere to escape, and it was not easy to block. A cunning joint attack where one would inevitably be hit by one even if one blocked the other.

The Ten Stars’ pupils flashed. If he could land a big blow, he would be able to make the Heavenly Dragon Sword Hero, whose reputation had been so great lately, into a Bidara!

The Fighting God, Gwak Yong, the Fighting Ghost, Gwak Cheon-hu, and even the Heavenly Dragon Sword Hero, Cheon Mubaeck.

If he could make all three of them into Bidaras, the Ten Stars would be able to gain an influence comparable to that of the Five Stars within the Blood Ghost Valley.

As he thought so, greed overflowed in his two pupils.

Until Cheon Mubaeck laughed.

“What a flashy greeting.”

Cheon Mubaeck’s body floated up. He had jumped up.

The Ten Stars shouted with a face full of joy.

“That’s it!”

An attack from the front, and a position where he would fall under the roof from behind.

The only corner to escape was to jump up.

But that was a fatal mistake. If you jump up, you must fall. Can you avoid an attack when you fall? It’s impossible. You have no choice but to allow the attack.

Thinking that he had been caught, the Ten Stars’ sword was thrust out quickly.

But it was then.

“…!”

Cheon Mubaeck’s feet moved in the air. The movement was so natural that it was as if he were stepping on the ground and performing a footwork. The Ten Stars’ eyes widened.

Cheon Mubaeck, who had stepped on the Heaven-Earth Eagle Steps in the air, pulled his foot back and then kicked out as if he were striking.

Kwadeuk!

The jaw of the rushing Bidara was crushed as it was, and it fell back.

No matter how much of a Bidara it was, since it could think and perceive for itself, its brain was important. When he kicked up its jaw with the tip of his foot, it momentarily got a concussion and lost its balance, and fell from the roof.

It could not get up again.

Cheon Mubae-ck, who had taken care of one in one go, spun his sword.

The Ten Stars’ sword and the Bidara’s saber were entangled, sending sparks flying. But at the tremendous repulsive force, the Ten Stars retreated with a shocked face. Only the Bidara clung on stubbornly. At that moment, he struck its temple hard with the back of his hand.

Kwang!

“…!”

A dull shockwave spread as if he had hit its head with a hammer.

The Bidara flew away and hit its head on the ground. Blood poured out from all the holes in its face. There was no need to look. It could not be revived again. A perfect death.

“You… what on earth… is the Heavenly Dragon Sword Hero… this strong?”

A look of disbelief was full in the Ten Stars’ eyes.

How much martial power did one have to have to be able to neutralize two Bidaras in one go? Of course, the two Bidaras that Cheon Mubaeck had faced were on the weaker side. Because in their previous lives, they had barely stepped on the threshold of a peak master.

Considering that the three Bidaras that Gwak Yong had faced were upper-level warriors even among the peak masters, there was a difference.

But even so, it was not possible to face them this easily.

‘The main valley is misjudging!’

According to the Blood Ghost Valley’s judgment, the Heavenly Dragon Sword Hero’s martial power was at the highest level even among the peak masters.

The general opinion was that his skill was close to that of the highest-ranking elders among the nine great sects.

In fact, that alone was a tremendous evaluation.

A young man who was not even of age was at a level close to that of the great elders of the nine great sects!

But the Ten Stars, who had witnessed it in person, had to admit that that judgment was wrong.

‘He’s already at the level of a great elder!’

Then it would be difficult for him to be Cheon Mubaeck’s opponent. The most he could say, considering his pride, was that they were evenly matched.

The Ten Stars quickly rolled his head.

‘I’ll get out of here!’

The Ten Stars, who had reached a conclusion, whistled. The Bidaras who had been driving the Flying Sword Sect warriors back, as if it were a lie, pulled back and rushed at Cheon Mubaeck.

The number was a full four!

Only two were attached to Gwak Yong, and the remaining four who had survived all rushed at Cheon Mubaeck.

They scattered attacks aiming for his arms and legs.

The Ten Stars, who had sought a way out in the meantime, was about to leave.

But it was then.

Cheon Mubaeck opened his Baihui point wide. The upper dantian stirred and vomited out internal energy. Cheon Mubaeck, with his voice filled with internal energy, shouted as if he were letting out a lion’s roar.

“The living and the dead, all rely on you, so the blessings you bestow are beyond words! You save countless sentient beings, so you are the Immeasurable Universal Salvation Heavenly Man!”

A calm but powerful voice.

Moreover, it was the internal energy of the Heaven-Shaking Soul Art, which was full of the qi of subduing demons. Cheon Mubaeck, who had memorized the Primordial Root Scripture and whose internal energy now contained a strange immortal energy, shouted the verse from the Primordial Root Scripture with all his might.

The people in the audience could not understand what was going on at Cheon Mubaeck’s sudden shout.

But they were shocked at the following situation.

The rushing Bidaras flinched for a moment.

‘It worked!’

Although they moved again right away, that brief moment was enough.

“Heuaap!”

Gwak Yong, at the moment the Bidara flinched, cut off the necks of the two in one go.

The poured-out greatsword cut off their heads in one go.

Cheon Mubaeck also, at the moment the Bidaras flinched, swung his sword without hesitation.

For masters like Cheon Mubaeck and Gwak Yong, a very brief moment was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

No matter how scary the enemy was, if their movement stopped and then continued, a gap would inevitably be created between the movements.

Cheon Mubaeck, who had not missed that gap, had made a hole in the necks of the three Bidaras in one go.

Only the remaining one had survived and had rushed in late, but Cheon Mubaeck had kicked its chest and had sent it flying.

At the same time, he had used the repulsive force of the kick to jump up into the air.

“We’ve only just met, where are you running off to!”

Cheon Mubaeck shouted and instantly took the back of the Ten Stars.

In the air, Cheon Mubaeck thrust out his sword.

A sharp momentum was shot out along the sword body.

“Iik!”

The Ten Stars quickly landed on the ground and then immediately counterattacked.

With just that, Cheon Mubaeck’s original purpose was achieved. It was to tie the feet of the Ten Stars, who had been trying to escape, to the ground.

The Ten Stars, with a contorted face, immediately drew his sword and scattered his sword qi.

A long and thin sword qi, like a whip, was swung and struck.

Kwajik!

A Flying Sword Sect warrior who was nearby was caught in the sword qi and fell, vomiting blood.

In the meantime, the Ten Stars kicked off the ground to escape again.

“Euratcha!”

Huuung!

At that moment, at the stab that came in from the left, the Ten Stars was quite flustered and retreated. It was threatening to block, and it was too fast to dodge.

It was a stab that made one think that if one had practiced only stabbing for a lifetime, it would be such a threatening attack.

The Ten Stars’ choice was eventually to roll on the ground. As he rolled on the floor like a shabby donkey, the man who had stabbed him burst into a loud laugh.

“Hahaha! It’s the One-Eyed Serpent, Neung-heo!”

“What kind of bastard!”

The Ten Stars’ face crumpled. To think that even a worthless guy was stepping forward now!

His brief lament was cut short, and the Ten Stars quickly rolled his body. Cheon Mubaeck, who had fallen from the air, had reached him in an instant. The Ten Stars’ eyes became gloomy.

‘He’s fast!’

The distance had been completely closed.

It was too late to escape.

He curled his body up.

The moment Cheon Mubaeck got close, he unfolded his curled body and poured out something from his bosom.

Anyone who lived in the martial world had a hidden trump card.

For example, they had a trick to escape a crisis.

What he had taken out as he unfolded his curled body was like a round ornament. It was a shape of a round net with holes pierced through it. But it was not decorated with jewels, but was full of blades that were dripping with a chilling edge.

When the Ten Stars infused his internal energy, the outside spun like crazy, and the blades inside flew out in all directions.

Sweeeek! Sweeeek! Sweeeek!

Hundreds, thousands of hidden weapons, coated with poison, poured out like a shower of ten thousand flowers.

Since Cheon Mubaeck had approached right away, all those blades were concentrated on Cheon Mubaeck.

No matter how strong a master was, it took time to raise a protective qi. In this instant, he would have no choice but to die from the pouring attack!

When the Ten Stars thought so, the green robe that had been wrapped around Cheon Mubaeck fluttered violently.

The hundreds, thousands of blades that had been divided and had poured out were blocked. They did not even get stuck in the robe, but fell powerlessly on the floor as if they were hitting steel.

“…!”

The Ten Stars’ eyes turned red.

The fluttering green robe.

He knew well what it was. It was one of the divine weapons made from the hide of the green leopard of Hainan. The green robe that was impervious to swords and sabers, which even a decent sword or saber could not pierce.

That was with Tang Jun-pa until just a short while ago…

“It was you?”

A look of astonishment appeared on the Ten Stars’ face.

The Ten Stars had thought that the incident in Chongqing was led by the Flying Sword Sect. The one who had annihilated the Red Dragon Faction was the Flying Sword Sect, and weren’t the Flying Sword Sect members also witnessed at the Water Dragon Fortress? He had thought that the Flying Sword Sect had caught the tail of the Blood Ghost Valley.

So the Ten Stars had led all the Bidaras he could use and had attacked the Flying Sword Sect.

But…

The one who had killed Tang Jun-pa was not the Flying Sword Sect, but the Cheon Mubaeck in front of him.

And the one who had lured him by catching the tail of the Blood Ghost Valley.

“It was you!”

The Ten Stars let out a rough sigh. The trump card that he could have used to survive and escape here was miserably blocked by that green robe. Cheon Mubaeck withdrew his robe and aimed his sword.

The Ten Stars turned his gaze with an astonished face.

Far away, he saw Gwak Yong cutting off the neck of the last remaining Bidara and rushing towards him.

And not only that.

The Flying Sword Sect members, including Gwak Cheon-hu, had all surrounded him with angry faces.

The fight was over.

Since he was surrounded like this, there was no way to escape. Even if he used all his strength, he might or might not be able to face Cheon Mubaeck alone, and next to him was the Fighting God, Gwak Yong.

A reputation close to that of the Ten Great Masters of the world.

To face him, one of the Five Stars had to come in person.

But he could not just be captured.

The Blood Ghost Valley had been exposed for the first time.

‘So this guy has been tracking us!’

The work he had been doing so far had gone wrong somewhere. From the Shaolin in Henan to the Blood Demon Sect in Shaanxi.

Come to think of it, Cheon Mubaeck was in all those incidents.

If he were to be captured here, the end would not be good. The Ten Stars clenched his teeth. He felt a foreign sensation in his molars.

A poison pill.

He chewed the poison pill without hesitation. Before Cheon Mubaeck could get any closer.

No, he was about to chew it.

“…!”

Cheon Mubaeck’s sword stretched out. A sword strike that was thrust as if it would pierce his head.

The sword instantly dug into his cheek and tore it, and then it struck his molar as it was. His gums split open, and the poison pill fell out.

The nerves in his gums were crushed, and a dizzying pain dug into his head, and the Ten Stars trembled.

Cheon Mubaeck’s heavy voice dug into his ears.

“If you commit suicide, I’ll kill you.”

…Is he telling me to choose being killed instead of committing suicide?
