Chapter 160: Piece Of Truth (5)
Among the Eight Families which held loyalty, there was a group known as the Demon Blood Clan.
And that group was located in the Heavenly Killing Valley.
Even during the great war, they stood at the forefront of the war and moved on the battlefield, and even after the death of their Lord, they risked their lives to fight.
Had it not been for their desperate struggle, half of the Eight Evil families would have died.
After fulfilling their duties, nearly 80% of their forces had been drained, so they went into hiding in this valley to regain their power.
It was a dry valley with almost nothing to sustain them. Beneath it was a large-scale underground dwelling which could hold 2,000 people.
It had been 17 years since they had settled there, and during that time, the people in the valley adapted to the underground life. And they had eyes which had gotten used to the dark.
Their lung capacity had changed to survive in the thin air. And their five senses were too sensitive.
It felt like their physical condition adapted to the harsh environment and had become much stronger than other warriors.
But—
Rumble!
When they felt this sudden disaster come, a middle-aged man who looked strong appeared through a ray of light from that hole.
At this appearance, the warriors inside were shocked.
“Intruder!”
“Catch him!”
With their barren land and sensitive senses, they all gathered at the location in the cave that now had an opening.
However, the enemy who infiltrated their place was a monster.
Snap!
“Kuak!”
Kwakwakwang!
The rushing warriors screamed as they bounced back at the snap of a finger, and they were thrown out through the cave walls.
“I said we weren’t going to fight. Valley Lord… please.”
Snap!
“Kuak!”
The middle-aged man snapping his fingers was Mumu. And Mumu sent one of the warriors who came for him flying with a snap.
“I wish I could do this with less strength.”
Mumu shook his head.
There were too many people to figure out who the leader was. Of course no one could understand this.
They didn’t come the normal way and just came right through the ceiling, so they were all nervous.
“Valley…”
Shh
The warriors and the leader of the valley gathered together and watched the situation.
The bright sunlight suddenly shining down through the broken opening shocked them.
‘Nonsense.’
It wouldn’t be absurd for the hole to be made unless one dug for a long time, but the people within were sensitive to everything and they would have felt the vibration. However, this hole was done in a short time.
‘Who is that monster?’
A monster that just crashed right through their place and pushed people back with a snap of a finger?
It was embarrassing.
Ho Gae-rang was the leader of the place. Most of the time he wouldn’t have to fight since he was strong enough to intimidate people, but now he couldn’t think of a way to subdue the monster which suddenly appeared.
And the one doing it—
Papapak!
Scratching sounds could be heard from the hole in the ceiling which was now bringing in sunlight, and someone else landed.
Tak!
“Damn it.”
It was Kang Mui. He followed Mumu right away into the hole, but he was using stones to step down gently rather than jumping straight down.
If he fell like that, then the impact would have wounded him badly.
“What?”
Kang Mui looked around and frowned. He could see the luminous poles and sunlight from the hole and hundreds of people with pale faces surrounding Mumu.
‘It was this sound then?’
This guy caused a mess at each place he goes to.
And at Kang Mui who appeared suddenly, the Heavenly Killing Valley warriors considered him as an enemy.
At this Kang Mui snorted,
“Hey! Heavenly Killing Valley! I am Kang Mui, the owner of a jade plaque!”
“The owner of a jade plaque?”
“Kang Mui.”
Whisper!
At that cry, the warriors of the valley who were about to attack hesitated. The one there was the owner of a plaque.
‘Young Lord Mui?’
Ho Gae-rang, the leader of the place, noticed Kang Mui when he said that.
Then, through a hole in the ceiling, someone else landed with light movements.
Tak!
It was Yang Muoh. And when he appeared all those there surrounding them did not change their actions.
‘Young Lord Muoh too?’
Ho Gae-rang, the leader, couldn’t hide his doubts.
This cave, whose walls shone with the glow in the dark stones, was the residence of the leader Ho Gae-rang.
He sat on the top with Mumu, Yang Muoh, and Kang Mui seated side by side. Seeing them like this, he couldn’t help but wonder.
First of all, he wasn’t sure on how to deal with them, but the brothers were sitting on either side of a middle-aged man.
So he asked,
“Young Leader Yang. May I know who this is?”
“I don’t know if you received the information here.”
“What information?”
“Have you heard of the Warrior of Super Strength?”
At that question of his, the leader and an elder of the place went wide-eyed. Even if they were in the southwest and within a hole, they constantly had informants all over the plains.
“Warrior of Super Strength Mumu!”
They were surprised.
Wouldn’t that be the warrior who has been in the rumors?
It was hard to believe that a freshman in the academy was 17 years old and defeated two of the Four Great Warriors. Ho Gae-rang looked at Mumu.
“Then the age and the face…”
“Human skin face mask.”
Kang Mui answered. He answered, but it didn’t seem like his words held credibility so Mumu said,
“I have the mask on.”
At the young voice from the mouth and the threatening mask, Ho Gae-rang nodded.
Still, he clicked his tongue in shock, he was thinking this rumor was plain lies, but it didn’t seem like it.
The leader cautiously opened his mouth,
“Then, I wonder if this young man got invited to our…”
“Invite. Puah.”
At that Kang Mui laughed a little. Although his attitude bothered him, Ho Gae-rang held back his feelings and asked Yang Muoh,
“Why is this happening?”
“This guy holds a jade plaque too.”
“Uh?”
At those words, he looked at Mumu with a stiff expression. He seemed quite shaken. Seeing this, Yang Muoh sighed lightly and asked,
“Did the valley leader assist that man like the Great Guardian? You did right? Do you know anything about those other than the five of us who were given the plaque?”
“…”
The man had a strange expression at this, and it felt like he knew something.
Kang Mui must have sensed it as well, he put his hands on the table and rested his chin on his hands as he said,
“If you know, tell us~. This is an important thing regardless of who the Lord will be.”
“Haa…”
Ho Gae-rang sighed at it. As expected he knew something.
Ho Gae-rang hesitated for a moment and then looked at Mumu.
He turned to Mumu and said,
“… It was assumed that the castle had burned down with all his vessels. He too had made arrangements for the finished vessel.”
“Finished?”
“Yes. You mean the best?”
“Best.”
Mumu tilted his head again.
What was this now? Looking puzzled, Ha Gae-rang continued.
“For some reason, I had doubts that a being with such power appeared at the age of just 17. As expected he is the best…”
Crack!
Before he could even finish.
“Ouch.”
At that moment, the chest of Ho Gae-rang was pierced, and a hand holding the heart could be seen.
‘!!!!’
“You!”
Everyone couldn’t hide their shock as the one who had pierced the heart out was none other than Neung Man-ha, who was there.
Despite the leader being careless, how could one even do this? The leader turned to him.
“Kuak…”
However, there was something strange about Neung Man-ha. The two eyes rolled oddly.
“Who are you?”
Crackle!
Kang Mui shouted with thunder qi around his eyes, and the eyes of Neung Man-ha which were going around oddly gathered to the middle, and he said,
“All gathered in one place, my alter egos.”
‘!?’
At those words, the expressions of Kang Mui and Yang Muoh changed.
Especially Yang Muoh, he had gone pale right then, and the leader said,
“Uh… why…”
“It is troublesome if you say useless things.”
Crack!
Scared to see the words be finished, he crushed down the beating heart. And when the heart was crushed, the man had tears in his eyes as he fell down. And he lowered the head as he slumped.
Crack!
Seeing this, Kang Mui gritted his teeth and said,
“What are you? Does this mean that technique really brought you back?”
At the words of Neung Man-ha who called them his alter egos, Kang Mui assumed him to be the ‘man.’ And he felt angry because of it.
“If he was back he should appear as himself. What kind of mess is this? In this way, an existence which is no different from your right hand gets kille…”
Pak
Before he could finish, the man pulled out his hand from the chest and chewed on the heart he had crushed.
Munch!
Kang Mui was at a loss for words.
The image of their father being some great man who was walking on the path of loyalty to his men with thousands behind him had turned into a devil.
And chewing the heart, the man said,
“I don’t need anything other than ‘me’ anymore. My alter egos.”
‘Other than me?’
Yang Muoh frowned.
What was this thing talking about?
He had a hard time understanding this. And then the man raised his hand and stretched it to them.
“Now is the time. Let’s do it together…”
Kwang!
Before he could tell them what to do, Mumu grabbed the man by the neck and pushed him against the wall.
“You are so annoying.”
At Mumu’s words, the man’s eyes looked around and then spoke as if the pain couldn’t be felt.
“Mu huh.”
“Right. But I do not have any intention to have a talk with you. Since you killed that man. I will not ask you.”
At those words, the man smiled,
And with that—
Crack!
His muscles began to swell up horribly. And it wasn’t just the muscles which grew.
Clench!
He grabbed Mumu by the wrist, and it was very strong, and he said to Mumu,
“The body is quite different from the last and your clumsy provocations will not…”
He couldn’t speak more though. The reason was that despite trying to break Mumu’s wrist, he couldn’t.
Swish!
At that moment the body of Mumu turned black with steam rising up, and the man who was smiling narrowed his eyes.
Mumu spoke to him with a heavier voice than usual.
“It seems that you are the one provoking me. That body you have is an insult to muscles.”
