Return of the Mount Hua Sect

Novel Return of Mount Hua Sect Chapter 972

“H- Hiiik! Die!”

The harpoon flew quickly towards Namgung Pyeong’s neck.

Namgung Pyung, who instinctively realized that he could not stop it, closed his eyes tightly. But at that moment.

Kagang!

A sword, swift as a ray of light from somewhere, fiercely knocked the harpoon away that was targeting Namgung Pyeong’s neck. Without losing momentum, the sword pierced through the neck of the pirate holding the harpoon.

Puuuut!

Namgung Pyeong looked blankly at the blood gushing from the pirate’s neck.

“Step back.”

“…”

“Step back.”

“Yes? Ah…. Yes!”

Namgung Pyeong responded in surprise. The female sword warrior glanced at him and stood firm in front of Namgung Pyeong without further discussion.

That was the beginning.

“Ooooh!”

It’s like a landslide.

Like silt violently pouring down a mountainside, black waves rushed down the path between the pirates.

The white light of swords contrasting with the black uniforms sliced through the air like wind.

It was a disastrous sight for the pirates who were pushing Namgung Family.

Everything in the world is relative.

From the point of view of Namgung Family, who was exhausted, the attacking pirates were no different from wild beasts, but in front of Mount Hua that was pushing like a massive wave, they were nothing more than leaves being swept away.

Paaaaaat!

The sword warriors of Mount Hua who pushed forward swung their swords in unison. Dozens of swords, tracing the same trajectory as if wielded by one person, coldly dug into the hearts of the disoriented pirates.

“Aaaaaaack!”

“D- Damn it…. Ugh….”

There was fear in the eyes of the pirates who saw their comrades dying in an instant right in front of their eyes.

Those who pursue profit rather than principle become crueler and more extreme than anyone else in the world when they gain the upper hand, but when their lives are in danger, they become more cowards than anyone else in the world.

It is only natural. Why would those who value their own lives the most bother to resist in a hopeless battlefield where they are sure to die?

And unfortunately for them, there was someone here who understood the nature of Evil Sects better than anyone else.

Kwang!

Someone stamped their foot hard on the ground and shouted.

“Destroy them!”

As soon as those words were spoken, five black figures rose into the air.

Baek Cheon, Yoo Iseol, Yoon Jong, Hye Yeon. And even Jo-Gol, who did his best to catch up with the main force.

They carry out his will as if they were swords wielded by Chung Myung.

“Attack!”

As soon as Baek Cheon’s command was given, red plum blossoms bloomed simultaneously from the four swords.

It was not the practical sword trajectory that had been seen so far, but an extremely extravagant sword trajectory.

As if to cover this Plum Blossom Island in red plum blossoms, the swords of the four flourished with endlessly bewitching plum blossoms.

And in the center.

“A—Mi—Ta—Bha!”

With a solemn chant, a golden light explosively burst forth.

Buddha’s Light Brilliance (????(????))!

The sight of the majestic Buddha light rising amidst the red plum blossoms encircling Namgung Family was utterly overwhelming.

Parararak!

The fluttering plum petals rained down on the pirates like rain. And for those in the front line, a golden radiance swept in like a wave.

“Aaaaaargh!”

Those hit by the Buddha’s light were thrown back, spewing blood.

“Aaah! My arm!”

“Ugh….”

Those covered in the sharp plum blossom sword energy also let out desperate screams. The sword energy, fluttering lightly like a flower petal, was too sharp to match its appearance.

A mere graze would slice flesh, and a direct hit could split bone.

In this space where so many people were crowded together, these terrible plum blossom petals demonstrated their power to the fullest.

But others weren’t just watching.

“Protect Namgung!”

With Baek Sang’s roar, the sword warriors of Mount Hua forcefully stamped the ground. They rushed forward like a lightning strike and stabbed the pirates, who were retreating in fear.

“Euraaachaaaa!”

Paaaaat!

Baek Sang’s sword pierced right through the heart of a pirate. Swiftly neutralizing his opponent, he immediately withdrew his sword and rushed towards the next pirate.

The pirate, who was bleeding and falling down, thrust his harpoon in a last desperate effort, but Baek Sang paid it no heed.

Kagang!

Gwak Hwe, who was following him, deflected the incoming harpoon for him.

He just needed to do what he had to do. Everything else was left to those following him. His Saje and Sajil trailing him were second to none.

There was absolutely no reason not to trust them!

“Your head should be cold.”

At the voice that suddenly reached his ears, Baek Sang’s body shuddered.

“Yes, Sasuk!”

Swaeaeaeaek!

Un Gum, who had easily dealt with a pirate that was targeting Baek Sang, looked around with cool eyes.

The disciples of Mount Hua who received his gaze adjusted their swords and their boiling blood calmed down little by little. Composure returned to their eyes.

Taak!

At that time, the Five Swords that had risen came down as if to guard the four sides of Namgung.

“Thi- This damned! How can you be scared by just that number! Crush those bastards right now… Kkeuk!”

The struggling pirate fell behind without being able to finish his sentence.

A bright green throwing knife was deeply embedded in his forehead.

Of course, that wasn’t the end.

“Aaaaaaaaaah!”

“Aaah! My face! My faaaaace!”

Once again, a shower of throwing needles and throwing stars collapsed a corner of the encirclement. They were so close that their shoulders were touching, so there was no way to avoid the thrown weapons.

The numerical advantage water fortress prided itself on became a hindrance in this situation. Conversely, from Tang Family’s perspective, there can be no fight more convenient than this.

Mount Hua cuts down all pirates that rush in front. They only needed to scatter their weapons in any direction they pleased, from wherever they wanted.

In a battlefield where defense was unnecessary, Tang Family exhibited peak efficiency.

“Hm.”

Tang Gun-ak glared at the pirates with a cold gaze, just like when he first met Chung Myung, and said as if chewing out.

“Let them know what true pain is.”

“Yes!”

As soon as Gaju gave his command, the members of Tang Family swung their arms even faster. Every time their hands emerged from their sleeves, desperate screams poured from the pirate’s mouths.

The sword warriors of Namgung Family, who were unable to let down their guard in disbelief of the situation, looked blankly at Mount Hua and Tang Family and finally collapsed to the ground as if deflated.

“…They…came.”

“Really… The reinforcements really come…”

They couldn’t bear to say ‘We survived.’ They knew all too well by now. Taking over this island was not the end.

The only way to survive is to get off this island.

But that was just a thought in their heads; their hearts spoke differently.

They turned their gaze towards Namgung Myung. No, more precisely, to the person who lost consciousness in Namgung Myung’s arms.

“…”

Looking at the limp Namgung Dowi, they couldn’t help but feel their eyes sting and their vision blur, no matter how hard they tried to hold back.

“Sogaju….”

How many sacrifices have been made.

It is rather a small thing that his body was abused until it became a rag. In order to save them, Namgung Dowi even sacrificed the Gaju and his father, Namgung Hwang.

When they thought about how he must have felt while rushed all the way here, they couldn’t even bring themselves to look at his face.

And now, the ones Namgung Dowi had desperately brought here were protecting them.

“Push!”

Mount Hua, and Tang Family.

Who would have imagined that they would come running for Namgung? Even the Ten Great Sects abandoned them. The Five Great Family, which they had believed to be allies, did not show their faces here.

However, Mount Hua, who had nothing to do with them, and Tang Family, who broke away from the Five Great Family and became enemies, entered this Plum Blossom Island for them without any conditions.

Knowing full well how dangerous this place was, they took all the risks to save Namgung Family.

How could one possibly express this emotion?

“Stand up and hold your sword!”

At that moment, Namgung Myung, holding Namgung Dowi, yelled.

“If you can still hold a sword, then stand up, even if you must force yourself! You are warriors of Namgung. Even if you get help, are you going to become a fool who just sits there and waits? If sacrifices are needed, we should be the ones to make them, and if blood should be shed, we should be the ones! Don’t take their will for granted!”

At those words, everyone came to their senses as if they had been struck by lightning. A fierce determination began to fill their eyes again.

The sword warriors of Namgung Family managed to get up despite trembling and moved forward even though they stumbled. To join the sword warriors of Mount Hua that surround them.

Chung Myung, who saw the scene, burst into laughter.

‘Anyway, these idiots.’

They are so exhausted that it is difficult to ask for help, but they wouldn’t just sit and wait to be saved.

‘Well, that’s how Namgung is.’

Since long ago, Namgung Family was the best in the world with their pride alone.

Chung Myung’s gaze coldly observed the battlefield. The heat of the battlefield devours people. Both the victor and the defeated eventually get swept away by its flow.

However, Chung Myung’s two eyes were capturing the entire battlefield with utmost sharpness.

This war was already over.

No, actually, it was over from the beginning.

There is no way that these guys, who had relaxed their minds thinking that salvation would never come to Plum Blossom Island, could defeat Mount Hua and Tang Family who suddenly attacked.

In the first place, if they had faced each other head-on in a place where they could demonstrate their full strength with proper power, the likes of water fortress would not have been a match for Namgung Family.

Water fortress could win because they pushed Namgung into a situation advantageous to them. Now, Mei Hua Island was a battlefield advantageous to Mount Hua and Tang Family.

All that remains is to simply be swept away.

‘Unless…’

Kwaaaaaaaa!

Suddenly, a terrifying sonic boom, like a giant boulder rolling down a mountain, echoed.

Baek Cheon’s head violently turned to the side.

‘What?’

But all he could see were pirates, scared stiff, retreating.

But Baek Cheon’s instincts were faster than his mind.

Kung!

The moment he kicked the ground and launched his body, the bodies of the pirates in front split and flew away, and rough, black sword energy flew fiercely toward the sword warriors of Mount Hua.

“Heuuuaaaaaat!”

Baek Cheon, who blocked its path as if he knew, swung his sword with all his might at the flying sword energy.

Kwaaaaaang!

Baek Cheon’s body, which had twisted the sword energy up, flew backward like an arrow. Mount Hua’s disciples screamed as they saw him bounce back into the air after being thrown to the ground once.

“Sasuuuuuuk!”

“Sahyung! Damn it!”

Baek Cheon flipped in the air and landed on the ground.

Kung.

Baek Cheon, who fell on the ground as if he was slumping, supported himself by planting the sword into the ground.

Red blood was dripping from his lips.

“This…”

Baek Cheon’s eyes were bloodshot. His physical condition is probably fine. Because right now, he was on the verge of losing his mind due to anger.

“This son of a beast…”

How… How could he aim sword energy at the backs of his own subordinates!

“This…!”

It clearly caught Baek Cheon’s eyes.

A vivid blood-red path was created by the corpses of the pirates who had died in the previous attack and the blood that flowed from them.

At the end of the path that emerged among the pirates.

“…These little punks.”

Black Dragon King, whose hair standing on end with rage, was approaching with steps that seemed to crush the ground beneath him.
