Light Novel: Volume 11 Episode 3
The fight between Jin family and Snow Sword Manor escalated to a life-and-death struggle.
In the beginning, they were considerate of each other and only fought to a small extent. But with the casualties increasing day by day, the negative emotions they felt against each other reached its peak.
When the Jin family warriors were ambushed and wiped out by the Snow Sword Manor, the Jin family retaliated by surrounding and killing the Snow Sword Manor warriors.
Such a situation was repeated several times, causing the damage on both sides to snowball.
If only warriors belonging to the two factions died, then the situation would not have reached this point.
But the problem is that there is also a number of deaths among the warriors who chose to join the two factions. When this happened, people related to the deceased warriors ended up coming to Runan, declaring revenge.
The fight between the Snow Sword Manor and Jin family went beyond the scope of a small war for regional supremacy.
This in turn caused many intellectuals to say that the fight between the two factions could escalate into a world war.
However, human desire is not something that could be easily suppressed by someone’s warning.
Jianghu has been peaceful for decades.
Most of the warriors who experienced the horrors of the Bloody War of Heaven have already retired or are too old, so the memories of that time were forgotten from people’s minds.
The old warriors who did not retire warned of the horrors of war, but their warnings fell on deaf ears.
The young warriors desperately wanted to use this opportunity to make a name for themselves.
The best way for a warrior to gain fame was to play an active role in a major war.
The Snow Sword Manor and the Jin family.
It didn’t matter who was right and who was wrong.
The important thing for them is that the arena of chaos has given them a chance to uplift their reputation.
Warriors from all over the world headed for Runan.
Runan is slowly becoming the eye of the storm.
But the group that is flustered the most by the current situation is neither the Jin family nor Snow Sword Manor.
It was actually the Shaolin Temple.
The Shaolin Temple initially believed that they could control the fight between the Jin family and the Snow Sword Manor.
That is the reason why they sent monks to mediate the quarrel between the two sides. However, contrary to their expectations, the scale of the fight has spiraled out of control.
If it continues to be left unattended, then this could really provide a foundation to another great war. This caused monk Un-hae and the other Shaolin monks who entered the Jin family to despair.
Jin Siwoo had issued an eviction order to them. However, the Shaolin monks did not leave the Jin manor. Even if they have to be rude, they concluded that it was better for them to remain in the Jin manor and continue to monitor the series of events.
“Amitabha! Amitabha!”
That night, when Un-hae could not sleep, he walked around the garden alone.
Seongam, who had been in high spirits when he first entered the Jin family, was now stuck in a small room due to the shock he received from Pyo-wol.
Not only was his rod, which was made by mixing various metals, split in two, but he also ended up suffering internal injuries.
This was the first time for Seongam, who is called the Crazy Buddha, to experience defeat.
What puzzled him more than anything was the Jin Siwoo’s and Namgung Wol’s reactions.
He didn’t expect that they would say anything back to him because of their current cornered situation.
But the reality was different.
Jin Siwoo was blatantly hostile towards him, while Namgung Wol openly criticized him.
This experience was very unfamiliar to Seongam.
Until now, he has been living as he pleases.
He had enough martial arts talent coupled with his background as a Shaolin monk.
No one had ever dared to tell him that he was in the wrong. Furthermore, his senior brother would always encourage instead of reprimanding him.
This in turn caused Seongam to become arrogant, thinking that he was always right.
But for the first time, he began to suspect that his thoughts might have been wrong.
That was the reason Seongam was stuck in a small room.
Un-hae’s mind was also in a mess.
Nothing has been solved, only problems are piling up.
“Amitabha! What should I do?”
He, too, had eyes and ears.
He knew how things were going in Runan right now.
One wrong move and a great war could break out in Henan, a province where the Shaolin Temple is hailed as the leading sect. This worst-case scenario had to be prevented no matter what.
It was then.
“I can hear you thinking from all the way from here.”
A cold voice rang in his ears.
‘Who?’
Un-hae looked at the place where the voice came from.
There was a small pavilion where his gaze was directed. A middle-age man was sitting and drinking on the railing of the pavilion.
The moment he saw him, Un-hae felt his heart sink. The middle-aged man was radiating a sharp energy that seemed to be digging into his chest.
Un-hae recognized the identity of the middle-aged man at once.
“Amitabha Buddha! So it’s the Sword Saint.”
The one who was drinking alone was none other than the Sword Saint, Han Yucheon.
In response to Un-hae’s greeting, Han Yucheon stood up from the railing and said,
“You bastard, the sound of you thinking is so loud. I can’t drink at all because you’re so noisy.”
“Why are you here drinking alone? You also seem to have a lot in mind.”
“Isn’t that all because of you guys?”
“Pardon?”
“How dare you stir up trouble by meddling unnecessarily…”
“Amitabha! I don’t know what you’re talking about.”
“You son of a bitch! Are you going to deny it until the end?”
“I really don’t know what you’re talking about. And didn’t you want the Jin family to perish in the first place? Have you begun to change your mind now?”
“No. My thoughts remained unchanged. I wish for this useless family to be ruined.”
“Then why?”
“Because you guys kicked him out.”
“Who?”
“Pyo-wol.”
“Pyo-wol? Why are you interested in that assassin?”
Un-hae had a questioning expression on his face.
He couldn’t figure out why someone like Han Yucheon would be interested in an assassin.
“I wouldn’t pay him any attention if he’s just an ordinary assassin. But he’s no ordinary assassin. You already know that, don’t you?”
“That’s—”
“Do you think it was a coincidence that Seongam was humiliated?”
“…….”
Un-hae could not deny his words.
Not only Seongam, but also the disciples who came with him surrounded him, but they could not stop Pyo-wol. Furthermore, Pyo-wol disappeared after breaking through the entrapment of the other warriors.
His martial arts skills were too great for him to be labeled as a mere assassin.
Han Yucheon asked again,
“Are you confident that you’d be able to stop him if he attacks you secretly?”
“The Shaolin Temple is not weak enough to be defeated by a mere assassin.”
“That’s bullshit!”
“Even if you are the Sword Saint, please refrain from insulting the Shaolin.”
