anwhile, the courtyard of the Jeonsu family was in chaos.
Corpses were scattered all over the floor.
Although it seed that most of the people who were not related to this war had already left this place, as the situation beca like that, the battle could not help but beco more chaotic.
Swaa-
The Hell Zanbato flew through the air with a heavy sound of wind.
Accordingly, the people who were falling on the floor like autumn leaves.
Rather, as this chaotic battle situation unfolded, the Hell Zanbato was showing a great performance, as if it were a fish that had t water.
"...!"
There were still nurous enemies surrounding Heo Cham.
However, unlike in the beginning, no one was trying to approach Heo Cham easily.
Because they had seen with their own two eyes for what reason the corpses scattered around here had beco like that.
Although they had rushed in from various directions at the sa ti, no one had been able to get close to Heo Cham until now.
"Ugh... what on earth is that?"
"This is cheating! If you swing sothing like that freely, you can't even approach!"
The people surrounding Heo Cham were each muttering.
The Hell Zanbato, on which their eyes were currently focused.
The reason why they could not even approach no matter how many of them rushed at Heo Cham was right in that weapon.
Compared to an ordinary sword or saber, the length of Heo Cham's Hell Zanbato would be about twice as long.
Since he was swinging sothing like that freely as if it were his own body, no matter how many of them rushed at him, they could not easily approach.
Swoosh-
Even now, the Hell Zanbato was moving in Heo Cham's hand, making a threatening sound.
Seeing that, their fighting spirit, which was disappearing even more.
If sothing like that were to rush at them, far from blocking it, their heads would surely be smashed at that mont.
Since there were also a considerable number of comrades who had beco like that scattered on the floor, the fear of the Hell Zanbato was even more strongly imprinted in the people's minds.
Thump-
At that mont, as if the storm had stopped, the Hell Zanbato also finally stopped.
However, the enemies, who did not move at all.
Although at first glance, the one who seed to be in danger was Heo Cham, if you just looked at the montum, Heo Cham was already overwhelming the enemies.
'Seopung, Yu Daeha... what happened to those two?'
As the situation beca a chaotic battle, he had not been able to pay attention to those two.
As it seed that the enemies were not approaching him, Heo Cham continued to maintain his guard on the surroundings and followed the appearance of the two with his eyes.
Swish-
At that mont, the appearance of the two was discovered in Heo Cham's sight.
Although it was not to the extent of Heo Cham, those two were also fighting with a considerable number of enemies at the sa ti.
However, at that mont, a voice that was heard in Heo Cham's ear.
"Thirty! How about that! I've overtaken you now!"
"Thirty-two."
"What, what did you say! When did you..."
"Thirty-three."
"Ugh... co on! Co on! I can't lose to that guy, Yu Daeha!"
Even while fighting with the enemies, the two were speaking to each other.
From the content, it seed that they were deciding who would do the penalty that Heo Cham had ntioned earlier.
To think that they were having such a competition even in this situation, a smirk unknowingly ca out of Heo Cham's mouth.
'Those two seem to be okay.'
If they didn't have the leisure, they wouldn't be able to speak like that.
As soon as he confird that fact, Heo Cham's gaze turned slightly upwards.
"..."
The place where Heo Cham's gaze was directed was the top floor of the high-rise hall.
It had been quite a while since Cheon Myeong had headed there.
Although it seed that he had chased after Su Yijeong, since there had been no news at all after that, Heo Cham was slightly worried about the situation over there.
'Young Master Cheon Myeong... will he be okay?'
Of course, he did not think that Cheon Myeong would be defeated by soone.
However, wasn't the opponent Su Yijeong, the head of the Jeonsu family?
No matter how much it was Cheon Myeong, it was a clear fact that he was an opponent he could not be careless with, so it was inevitable that such a concern would arise.
Thump-
At that mont, a warrior from behind rushed at Heo Cham.
He had moved as soon as he had noticed that Heo Cham's gaze was distracted elsewhere.
As if it were a rather exquisite ambush, Heo Cham did not react at all until the warrior approached close.
'I got him!'
Even if he thought about it himself, it was a perfect ambush.
The warrior thought so and raised his sword high towards the back of Heo Cham's head.
However, at that mont.
Swaa-
The warrior's body was instantly separated into an upper and lower body and was scattered on the floor.
Watching him, the other warriors were startled, and.
Heo Cham's Hell Zanbato began to move fiercely again with a threatening sound.
'I'll quickly clean this place up and follow Young Master Cheon Myeong.'
Sohow, the fact that he had sent Cheon Myeong there alone was constantly weighing on Heo Cham's mind.
But he couldn't just leave the enemies here and go.
Since that was the sa as passing the burden to Seopung and Yu Daeha, Heo Cham was thinking of cleaning up the enemies here as quickly as possible.
"...!"
As if that montum was also felt by the enemies, the enemies surrounding Heo Cham were unconsciously taking a few steps back.
A sword ki that had soon appeared on the Hell Zanbato again.
As if he were ready, Heo Cham was about to rush at the enemies.
However, at that mont.
Crash-!
Because of the roar from sowhere, Heo Cham had no choice but to stop his movents.
A roar to the extent that it felt as if the sky were collapsing.
The gazes of the others, including Heo Cham, were also naturally directed to the side where the roar was heard.
"...!"
Everyone who had raised their heads could not hide their astonishnt.
Because a scene that could not be understood with common sense was now unfolding in front of them.
The people here were witnessing for the first ti in their lives the scene of a hall with a height of at least twenty feet collapsing like a sandcastle.
'W-what on earth is that...!'
The sa went for Heo Cham.
As if a great explosion had occurred from the inside, the hall was completely collapsing from the top floor.
That collapse was now continuing to the lower floors.
And Heo Cham suddenly rembered Cheon Myeong, who had headed there.
'Young Master Cheon Myeong! What happened to Young Master Cheon Myeong!'
Although he didn't know what on earth was happening over there, in that much of an explosion, it didn't seem that even Cheon Myeong would be able to be safe.
As he had that thought, Heo Cham reflexively moved towards the collapsing hall, but he could not approach any further because of the storm that was being transmitted from the front.
Rumble-!
The mysterious shock that had started from the top floor of the hall reached the ground in an instant.
At that mont, a huge storm spread in all directions.
Since it was a shock to the extent that it could collapse that much of a hall, the storm that occurred due to it could be called a disaster.
"Kh...!"
The strength of the storm was so great that all the surrounding buildings were uprooted.
Accordingly, Heo Cham also could not approach any further, and it was all he could do to endure so as not to be blown away by the technique of the thousand-pound weight.
Rumble- crack-!
In the air, the debris of the hall and people were flying around in a disorderly manner.
Because of the sudden storm, no one was fighting, but was just thinking of getting through this disaster safely.
And the mysterious storm, after leaving a short but intense impression, suddenly disappeared.
Rumble-!
As the storm stopped, the debris that had been flying in the air fell on the floor.
And the silence that followed.
As it seed that the storm had completely passed, Heo Cham raised his head, which he had hidden behind his Zanbato.
"Huh..."
That exclamation ca out of Heo Cham's mouth, who was looking forward.
The hall, which had completely disappeared from in front of his eyes.
If you just looked at the traces left there, it seed that you would not even dream of the fact that there had been a hall of a trendous height and scale in that spot until just a mont ago.
'What on earth... happened?'
Heo Cham felt as if he were dreaming now.
Because his brain could not fully accept this situation.
Looking around the desolate surroundings, he could feel more how great the strength of the storm that had hit him just now was.
"..."
The debris that was piled up here and there, and the people who were mixed in it.
It seed that if Heo Cham had been a little careless, he would have been in there now.
And at that mont, Heo Cham could discover the figures of Seopung and Yu Daeha standing far away.
Swish-
As soon as he discovered the two's figures, Heo Cham drew the Hell Zanbato he had stuck in the ground and ran to that side.
"You two! Are you okay?"
Heo Cham asked as soon as he got close.
The two, who had a rather tired appearance.
Since they had supported each other and had endured, it seed that they had barely avoided being swept away by the storm.
"I-I almost died..."
"We're okay... are you okay, Leader?"
Heo Cham, who was relieved after hearing the answer.
From their appearance, although it was true that they were tired, it did not seem that their lives were in danger.
"I'm okay."
"But... what on earth was that storm just now?"
"..."
"It seems to have occurred from that huge hall..."
Hearing Yu Daeha's words, Heo Cham's two eyes widened as if he had suddenly rembered sothing.
Swish-
Heo Cham hurriedly turned his head and looked at the place where the hall had been.
As he had confird earlier, there was only a site left to the extent that he could only know that there had been a hall there.
And Heo Cham began to run towards that side like a madman.
Tat-tat-tat-!
Heo Cham, who had arrived there in an instant.
However, as soon as he arrived at his destination, Heo Cham was just standing there with a blank face, as if he did not know where to go anymore.
"..."
As Heo Cham suddenly moved like that, Seopung and Yu Daeha also followed him after a while.
And Yu Daeha asked Heo Cham, who was standing with a blank face.
"Leader? Why did you suddenly run this way?"
"...He's not here."
"Pardon?"
"Young Master Cheon Myeong... Young Master Cheon Myeong is not here."
Heo Cham had clearly seen Cheon Myeong go to the top floor of the hall.
However, the hall, which had disappeared in an instant due to the mysterious storm.
Then where on earth had Cheon Myeong, who had been there, gone?
Even if he looked around, since there was only a desolate site visible, Heo Cham could only have an ominous thought.
"Young Master Cheon Myeong!"
At that mont, Heo Cham suddenly shouted at the empty air.
As if it were natural, there was no answer to Heo Cham's shout, and Heo Cham turned around and said to the two in a hurry.
"From now on, we will look for Young Master Cheon Myeong!"
"..."
"It's the top priority! Search this area thoroughly!"
Although the exact situation was not grasped, hearing Heo Cham's voice, the two instinctively realized that the situation was not good.
"Understood."
Imdiately after the answer, the three were about to scatter in order to hurriedly look for Cheon Myeong.
However, at that mont.
Discovering sothing that was lightly landing nearby, the three had no choice but to stop their movents.
"...!"
Discovering the person who had suddenly appeared, Heo Cham was so surprised that his mouth fell open.
Cheon Myeong, who was standing in front of Heo Cham with a calm appearance.
At that mont, Cheon Myeong looked around slightly and then began to walk sowhere.
Thump-
Cheon Myeong's footsteps, which were walking relentlessly, stopped in front of the piled-up debris.
And he lowered his posture and put his hand into the debris.
Cheon Myeong's hand, which was moving here and there inside for a while, as if he were looking for sothing in it.
"...Found it."
Cheon Myeong muttered, stopping his moving hand.
And his right hand, which was coming out of the debris.
As if he had grabbed sothing from inside the debris, as soon as he took out his right hand, he threw what he was holding on the floor.
Thud-
What had been held in Cheon Myeong's hand was a person.
No, if you just looked at the outside, it was a rather miserable appearance, so much so that it would be fair to say that he was already dead.
Su Yijeong was lying on the floor with an appearance that was no different from a corpse.
"..."
Cheon Myeong silently approached the lying Su Yijeong.
And Cheon Myeong, who brought his ear to Su Yijeong's face.
Since a faint breath was felt, he could tell that Su Yijeong was still breathing.
'He's still alive.'
The second form of the Three Swords of the Heavenly Demon, the Heavenly Demon's Prostration and Submission, Transformation.
That was the cause that had blown away the entire hall.
To be honest, since this was the first ti Cheon Myeong had perford this technique, he could not control the power at his will.
Therefore, he had thought that Su Yijeong would surely not be able to survive... to be honest, it was surprising.
"...Cough."
At that mont, Su Yijeong coughed, spitting out blood.
And his two eyes, which were slowly opening.
In the faint vision, Su Yijeong could see Cheon Myeong, who was looking down at him.
"What on earth... happened...?"
"..."
"No... I lost. Yes... it's just that."
Cheon Myeong was looking down at him, and he was lying like this, unable to even lift a finger.
With just that fact, Su Yijeong could tell that he had been completely defeated by Cheon Myeong.
"If I had known it would be like this... I shouldn't have listened to that guy's words..."
As Su Yijeong muttered to himself as if he were lanting, a strange light flashed in Cheon Myeong's two eyes.
That guy.
From the feeling, Cheon Myeong had the thought that Su Yijeong knew a fact that he did not know.
"That guy? Who on earth is that guy you're talking about?"
"...Yes, since it has co to this, it doesn't matter if I tell you."
"..."
"It's unfair for only the Jeonsu family to fall."
Did that an that another being was involved in this matter?
From the feeling, Cheon Myeong had the thought that that place was one of the other four Five Great Demonic Families.
"The Star-Sucking Great Art... the Jeonsu family originally had no way to learn that martial art, which was designated as a forbidden demonic art."
"...Does that an that soone else taught the Jeonsu family the Star-Sucking Great Art?"
"Yes. That guy... that family taught it."
"Where is that place?"
"That is..."
It was then.
A sharp sword gang that suddenly cut Su Yijeong's neck.
Blood poured out of Su Yijeong's neck like a fountain, and Su Yijeong's severed head could no longer say anything.
"...!"
A sudden attack from soone.
Since his nerves were completely focused on Su Yijeong's words, Cheon Myeong had not been able to block that attack.
Swish-
Cheon Myeong, who raised his head and looked in the direction the sword gang had flown from.
Then, there, Hong Daeyeon was standing with his long hair flying, holding a sword.
