Surviving as a Cripple in Murim

68 – Death Priest (5)

Invincible.

Dangoh carefully took a step back with a distorted face at the title, which was not light, despite having touched the mighty forces of the Murim and the Imperial family.

To make an excuse, Dang-O was not weak.

It was just that the opponent in front of me was a monster among monsters, a strong man outside the standard.

This was literally an elephant in a wolf fight.

‘Poo~ Don’t fight!!’

Truly the height of absurdity.

In addition, apart from Geumgang Bulgogi, Manpokbulchim was too disadvantageous due to the martial arts characteristics of the Sichuan Tang family, which mainly use poison.

It would be foolish to fight with a guy like this. I have to avoid this place somehow.

With that thought in mind, Dang-oh quietly shifted his gaze to Jang-sam, who was trembling like a frightened rat after being discovered by unknown.

The question is, why did that bird head and invincibility interfere with Namgung Soso’s assassination plan?

Even if the bird head is an escort, if the invincible is hired by the faction that supports Namgung Soso and opposes the opposite faction supported by the Wonwon Faith….

The names of numerous masters and celebrities whose lives were lost at the hands of the invincible pass through my mind.

No answer. Calculations do not match.

You may have to redo the plan from scratch, or you may have to quit the Namgung household altogether.

“Hey….”

Perhaps it was because of the long silence, Moo-myeong suddenly opened his arms toward the startled Dang-oh, revealing that he had no hostile intentions.

“You may seem arrogant, but I don’t intend to fight, so you don’t have to be so wary.”

“Just… I’ll send you… ?”

Anyway, Dang-oh, who was calculating that he would succeed in running away with at least one arm ripped off as much as he struck first, looked suspiciously at the unknown words that he would not fight.

“Yes, I intervened because someone I knew looked dangerous, but I don’t know what kind of relationship there is between the two of you.”

Moo-myeong reassured Dang-oh with an awkward expression.

“Currently, if the fighting in this village is stopped, I have no intention of intervening.”

His tone is gentle, but if you understand the meaning, he meant that if you don’t take your companions with you right now, you will kill them all.

That’s exactly what it sounded like.

Dang-o swallowed dryly as he looked at the monster hidden behind the foolish mask.

I don’t know what the plan is, but I’ve been able to find out a few facts from the conversation I’ve just had.

Invincible and invincible was that he was not hired by the Namgung family and had no intention of antagonizing the Ilwolshinkyo.

If I had intended to kill him in the first place, I would have killed him in an ambush without even talking to him from the start.

Then it’s right to step back so that you don’t provoke the sleeping monster any more, even though you’re hurting your pride here.

“… I get it. Let’s leave this town right now.”

Now, I just hope that Mayang will stop playing and kill Namgung Soso.

After saying that, Dang O didn’t want to get involved with the invincible and invincible anymore, so he quickly ran away, spreading light air over the open roof.

“I’m sorry if I intervened unnecessarily.”

As a result, Jang-sam, who was directly involved with unknown without a third party, calmed down his trembling body and forcibly spoke pleasantly.

“hahahaha~ No, I survived thanks to you. Thank you.”

“Then I’m glad. Ah, brother samabu, how are you?”

“That person is always the same. I’m a cruel wolf. But warm to my family.”

Jangsam shrugged his shoulders and lamented his life.

“As a result, I am working diligently and working as an escort for which I am not in a position.”

At Jangsam’s complaint, Moo-myeong let out a weak laugh and smiled lightly.

“A bird that travels far and wide according to the owner’s order. It is truly full of dreams.”

“… ….”

Moo-myeong praised Jang-sam by slightly changing his nickname, Cheol-bung, out of respect for his loyalty.

“… But I thought he would turn the opponent into porridge as soon as he was attacked. He’s more of a pacifist than you think.

“Uh… He’s not crazy, and he shouldn’t kill people carelessly. It is better to solve things that can be solved through dialogue.”

The scariest thing about a madman is that he doesn’t know he is crazy.

… And Jangsam knows full well that he is not qualified to say such a thing, but he stopped speaking his mind at the absurd reasoning that it is hard to believe that it came from the mouth of a killer who has killed countless people.

“I don’t think killing people to make a living is what you would say.”

“Ahahahaha… I can live, so I can’t kill people carelessly.”

As if he heard a funny joke, his nameless eyes with thick black rings draw curves.

“It’s a loss to work for no money.”

The rough breathing from the previous fight had subsided to some extent, and there was no time or heart to continue the conversation, so Jang-sam politely said goodbye.

“Hey… Then I will stop going because I have to go help the young master. Thank you for your help.”

Although there was an invincible warning, he couldn’t completely relax as it was unknown how the other raiders would behave. However….

“Ah… If that’s the case, you’ll be fine soon. Don’t worry too much.”

“… Yes? What is that?”

Moo-myeong turned his head in the direction of Moorim-maeng and took a step back.

“I can feel a huge energy approaching me quickly.”

***

Shortly after Dangwu chased after Jangsam and disappeared.

Soso looked at the two masters, Mayang and Miyang Wang, who were confronting each other exuding unusual energy, and before they knew it, slowly~ slowly~ slowly~ she spoke to Mancheon, who stepped back.

“Gongja Sima, the leader of the raiders looks strong. Master Wang Miyang, will you be all right?”

I nodded with a firm face without hesitation.

“Yes, that’s fine. Master is strong.”

These are not empty words. It’s a short time, but I know because I’ve been taught. Wang Mi-yang was stronger than anyone here.

It hurts my pride, but if I’m in the middle of nowhere, it’ll only get in the way.

“Little Master loses….”

So, looking at the back of the small but strong young teacher, he relieved Soso’s anxiety with faith.

“I can’t even imagine it.”

… And after a while

I couldn’t help but freeze in amazement at the sight that I couldn’t even imagine happening in front of my eyes.

“Little Master… Did you lose?!”

It wasn’t even a level that could be called a fight, to be honest.

A black-haired woman completely destroys Cho-sik of the Jeonjin-gyo, which has strong power that Wang Mi-yang unleashes.

In an instant, the blood vessels on both arms were pressed and he was suppressed.

To make an excuse for the little master who became a bubble in an instant, the level of the two was similar in my opinion.

It’s just that martial arts ‘compatibility’ wasn’t very good.

It reminds me of one of the many mysterious martial arts that Master taught me in an abandoned house when I was young.

A martial art created solely to break the martial art of Jeonjinkyo,

“Gomyopa (古墓派)… Oknyeo Heart Sutra (玉女心經)….”

I calmed my startled heart and recalled the past at the unexpected appearance of martial arts.

It was autumn eight years ago.

The time when I was the softest and cutest.

“Qui-Qui~ Ball! Number of people! Volume! Master is already a loser~ Desung!!”

“Heh heh~ You’ve already mastered the resonance zone. You practiced very hard.”

During the dance with Master….

Looking back now, Master was just playing around with me, but at the time, I was excited about the sense of achievement that I had learned a new martial art and the fact that I was praised by Master.

Anyway, the important thing is not this. A little later

“Mancheon-ah, as much as you have learned the martial arts of Jeonjin-gyo, there are martial arts to be careful about.”

“Heeing… I studied really hard… Can’t you just say it’s invincible martial arts?”

In response to my childish grumbling, Master shook his head resolutely and taught the lacking disciple.

“There is no such thing as invincible martial arts in the world. All martial arts have mutual compatibility.”

Moorim Online’s old figures like the sky say that, but what should I, a mococo newbie with a blue mite, do?

I kept my mouth shut and listened to Master’s precious teachings as usual.

The martial art that came out at that time was the Oknyeo Heart Sutra of the Gomyo School.

“The secret of Oknyeo Simgyeong is to subdue the opponent with a quick exit. That’s why the Jeonjingyo warriors are overpowered the moment Choshik is destroyed.”

“Hee~ It’s amazing. Then, master, can you show me how to match the martial arts of Jeonjin-gyo and Gomyo-pa with a double-handed pumpkin?”

Yes, here it is.

The conversation that followed this was an opportunity for me to remember the martial arts of the Gomyo School in detail.

Suddenly, Master’s benevolent yet upright face turned sullen.

“That’s actually… This teacher did not achieve great martial arts of the Komyo school….”

“… Yes? Master?!”

The Namgung family’s royal sword type, the Zhugell family’s Cheongi Miribo (天機迷離步), the opening tagubong method (打狗棒法), the Hwasan faction’s Jahajingong (紫霞神功), the Kunlunpa’s The Eight Eight Ceremonies of the Cloud Dragon and others.

I was surprised by the appearance of a martial art that Master, who had perfected the non-martial arts of numerous munpas, did not succeed in.

Master calmly explained to me in a benevolent yet strong voice as usual.

“As Oknyeo Simgyeong is a martial art created by a woman, there are cases where it is somewhat incompatible with men.”

Ah… Gender was the cause. Then there is nothing you can do

The moment I nodded and tried to understand, the explanation continued.

“Of course, there is no problem for men to learn, and if they have enough qualifications, they can do Daesung too. However, among the martial arts included in the Ongnyeo Heart Sutra, there is a martial art called Beauty Kwonbeop.”

Master looked up at the sky with an expression similar to that of me who hadn’t learned the double-headed pumpkin.

“This martial art is a martial art that only women or so-called pretty, handsome men with outstanding appearance can achieve greatness.

“Ah, ah… that, like that… !!”

Ah… What is the affinity between a mysterious and strange person and a non-space….

On that day, I couldn’t help but tremble at the appearance of a martial artist who discriminated against even talent, which is not an exaggeration to say that he had the qualities of a great master.
