The man was different from what he had seen in the video.
The existence in the whole place itself turned intimidating.
‘H-how is he here?’
Cheon Woo-kyung couldn’t understand it.
He was sure that Cheon Yeo-Woon was in Jinan city.
And in Jinan city, a Gate Warning was issued, so no transportation was operating.
Coming here should be utterly impossible.
At his bewilderment, Cheon Yeo-Woon spoke in a cynical voice.
“It’s better if you don’t wait for that brain to find an answer.”
Finally, he came face to face with the leader of the third faction.
Because this faction was like an organization, it wasn’t easy to find the members and trace the whereabouts of Cheon Woo-kyung.
But he ended up finding it thanks to him aiming for the legacy.
“Greed has made you get caught by the ankle.”
Cheon Yeo-Woon stretched out his hand.
Energy rose and pulled Cheon Woo-kyung’s body.
“Ugh?”
The red-haired man blocked it.
Wooh!
When the man held out his hand, tremors occurred, and Cheon Woo-kyung’s body, which was about to float, fell to the ground.
“Hmm?”
Cheon Yeo-Woon’s eyes lit up.
‘He stopped energy?’
It was the first time it happened since coming to this era.
Even Superior Masters couldn’t do that here, which meant this one had to be exceptional.
The subordinate shouted at Cheon Yeo-Woon.
“Lord. I won’t let him touch you! If you bully my Lord, I won’t forgive you!”
The moment he heard those words, Cheon Yeo-Woon’s eyes narrowed.
A very familiar voice.
‘No way…’
The voice was thicker than the one he knew, and the tone was slurred.
A wording that children usually use.
Unlike Cheon Yeo-Woon, who was puzzled, Cheon Woo-kyung was surprised by the subordinate’s act.
‘He stopped the internal energy of Cheon Ma?’
He didn’t think that he was this strong.
A small ray of hope bloomed in his heart.
‘If he can deal with him, then I may have a chance.’
He thought that there was a slight possibility of taking down the enemy while aiming for a gap.
But not everything goes as planned.
“Kuak!”
Cheon Woo-kyung coughed up blood.
The man started to panic at the sight and supported him.
“Lord! Are you alright?”
“I-I am fine.”
Even speaking seemed difficult for Cheon Woo-kyung.
His body was swelling up because of the blood he drank.
He said he was fine, but his insides were burning like fire.
‘I need to stabilize…’
It was urgent to stabilize and control the energy movement in his body.
In the meantime, he hoped that the man could block Cheon Ma.
“Subordinate. Stop him, no, just kill him!”
Rather than stopping him, killing him would be the best outcome.
But the response from the man was different.
“Lord. But that person. I feel like I saw him before.”
‘!?’
Cheon Woo-kyung frowned.
If this was the legacy of the Demon God, then it had to be passed down from a thousand years ago.
There was a possibility of the person being acquainted with the Demon God at one point.
‘Even with the problem in his brain, he still remembers that man?’
It seemed similar to knowing martial arts.
According to the doctor, it had to take a month for the degenerative behavior syndrome to cure.
But Cheon Woo-kyung couldn’t stop being nervous.
‘I shouldn’t think of other stuff.’
He pointed to Cheon Yeo-Woon, who was at the entrance of the cave and spoke.
“Listen up. That person is a wicked person who pretends to be the Cheon Ma.”
“Pretend?”
“He calls himself Cheon Ma.”
At those words, the subordinate’s ears went red. It was because he was angry at what he had just heard.
“Cheon Ma is my Lord!”
‘Good.’
He achieved what he intended to.
If anger was brought out, the man wouldn’t think of anything other than smashing the man in front of him.
Cheon Woo-kyung licked his lips.
“That person is trying to kill me and confuse the Heavenly Demon Cult. What should you do?”
Bang!
The subordinate slammed his hand on the floor.
“He needs to be killed! I will kill him! No one will touch the Lord!”
He was angry.
His brain has degenerated, but he could feel anger.
On the other hand, Cheon Yeo-Woon’s eyes turned cold.
“You are pulling strings till the end.”
He stretched out his hand.
Jjjjjkk!
Cold spread throughout the cave. Hundreds of Ice swords appeared.
Cheon Woo-kyung was at a loss of words at that sight.
“W-what is this?”
“Then both of you die together!”
Cheon Yeo-Woon pointed his finger at them.
All the ice swords went rushing for Cheon Woo-kyung.
He could have used Sky Flash, but they were in the cave, so he avoided doing that.
“D-damn it!”
Shocked and scared, Cheon Woo-kyung closed his eyes.
When he was one step away from turning into a hedgehog.
Something he hadn’t expected happened.
Wheiik!
Flames formed like a thick film around them.
Papapak!
The ice swords which hit the shield made of flames, shattered or melted because of the heat.
Not a single sword made it inside.
“Oh-oh!”
Cheon Woo-kyung was excited and amazed.
He didn’t think that it could be stopped.
“My Lord! Do not bully my Lord!”
The man who blocked the Ice Swords, groaned and slammed his red palms to the ground.
‘What is he trying to do?’
Bewildered, he raised his palms again.
A pillar of fire rose where Cheon Yeo-Woon was standing.
Wheeik!
The pillar of flame engulfed Cheon Yeo-Woon in an instant. But that didn’t seem enough, so the man opened his hands, and dozens of spheres of flames were formed.
Dung!
Temperature rising even more.
“Die!!”
The sphere of white flames created in the air rushed towards the pillars like cannons.
Kwakwakwang!
As the sphere of flame entered the pillar of flame, an explosion occurred.
The destructive power was enough to shake the entire cave.
Rumble!
‘A-amazing!’
Cheon Woo-kyung couldn’t keep his mouth shut. He couldn’t hide his shock at the man who had tremendous power in his hands.
He didn’t seem like a human.
‘This is the subordinate’s strength.’
This man looked like he was overpowering Cheon Ma.
Within the explosion which looked impossible for everyone to survive.
Wheeing!
A huge spear of flame appeared in the subordinate’s hand.
It seemed like he was trying to be certain of his kill. It was the moment he was about to throw the spear of flame.
Swoosh!
Something happened to the flame pillar.
Like the Red Sea which split in half, Cheon Yeo-Woon’s extended hand was revealed.
“You are pretty good.”
Cheon Yeo-Woon said casually.
Cheon Yeo-Woon was uninjured, not a single burn.
‘…no!’
Cheon Woo-kyung was startled.
“Uh!”
The man was shocked too.
However, he soon regained his posture and threw the spear of flame at Cheon Yeo-Woon.
Shhh!
The spear of flame tried to pierce Cheon Yeo-Woon’s heart.
Of course, the subordinate thought he would avoid it, so he threw another spear at the same time towards where Cheon Yeo-Woon moved.
But.
Pak!
Cheon Yeo-Woon grabbed the spear of flame flying in.
There was a risk of getting burned, but Cheon Yeo-Woon threw the spear of flame back at the man as if nothing had happened.
“Take it back.”
Shhh!
Flames were his power, so he believed that no damage would happen to him.
“Flames are useless to me…”
Pak!
“Kuak!”
His expectations shattered.
The spear of flame pierced through the man’s shoulder.
And with that, he bounced back.
Thud!
After bouncing back a few times, the subordinate got up.
The pierced part was rapidly regenerating.
Shhhh!
Blood vessels connecting and muscles reforming.
Several times the speed of any normal regeneration.
Cheon Yeo-Woon, who saw it, said.
“Indeed, it is you. You took the blood of Flame Qilin.”
The flame, and the regenerative abilities.
Cheon Yeo-Woon was suspicious of the man.
‘Blood of flame Qilin couldn’t be taken by a human.’
Flame wasn’t easy.
It contained energy which men couldn’t take, and without neutralizing the blood, the insides would burn, and the person would die.
‘hmm.’
There was only one man who overcame that.
Thanks to the neutralizing of blood with Ice qi, the man who called himself the aide of Cheon Yeo-Woon, survived.
‘Why?’
Cheon Woo-kyung’s subordinate felt nostalgia.
More than a thousand years have passed.
The blood did extend the lifespan, but not to this extent.
‘Then.’
The only way to dispel the doubt was to check it out for himself.
If he could check the face behind the mask, he would know for sure.
Shhh!
Cheon Yeo-Woon’s form dispersed and reached in front of the subordinate.
Most people couldn’t have noticed it, but the subordinate raised his flames when Cheon Yeo-Woon closed the distance.
Wheeik!
After Cheon Yeo-Woon dodged it, he reached for the mask.
“Ahh!”
Shocked, the man moved back.
[Never take off the mask.]
He remembered the command from Cheon Woo-kyung, so he avoided it.
Besides, Cheon Woo-kyung, who was unable to concentrate on the energy flowing in his body, kept shouting.
“Don’t take off the mask!!”
The man who heard it tried to run.
“Where!”
Cheon Yeo-Woon followed him.
The man desperately tried to escape, but the same thing kept happening again and again.
When he was on the verge of being caught, the man screamed.
“Ahhhh!”
“Show your face.”
Not caring about the other person’s wishes, Cheon Yeo-Woon kept going after the man, trying to cut off the mask.
At that moment, huge flames engulfed the body of the man.
Wheik!
‘This one?’
Cheon Yeo-Woon frowned. He used flames to escape from the crisis.
“Ahhhhh!”
The man crossed his arms and swung the flame around like a tornado.
Now, a whirlwind of flames was soaring high in the cave right between them.
“Subordinate!”
The whirlwind of flame which was between them kept getting stronger.
‘I-it’s getting stronger.’
Cheon Woo-kyung got up from his seat and moved back in fear that the flames would touch him.
If he kept sitting there trying to control the energy, he might get swept away.
Kwakwang!
The entire cave was devastated.
Cracks and fragments everywhere, powerful enough for the cave to collapse and bury everyone.
‘No! If this goes on, I might die here.’
He didn’t have the time to control the energy of the Flame Qilin in his body.
Cheon Woo-kyung, who thought that he might die, tried to escape from the cave passage.
It was then.
Swoosh!
The flames which were going around wildly changed.
A terrifying coldness rose, and the flames, which didn’t look like they could go down, were subsiding into water and vapour.
‘F-flame is…’
Shocked, Cheon Woo-kyung looked back.
Pang!
In the dying flames, someone’s body was thrown in the direction of Cheon Woo-kyung.
The subordinate.
Bounce, thud!
The floor shattered as the man kept bouncing.
After rolling on the floor multiple times, the man stopped, barely catching his breath and exhaling harshly.
“Huk… huk…”
‘Ah!’
Meanwhile, Cheon Woo-kyung checked to see if his mask was intact.
Fortunately, the mask did have cracks, and the color changed because of the heat, but it was still there.
The mask was fine.
‘… even this monster is not an opponent for him.’
Victory and defeat.
The subordinate was no match for Cheon Ma.
Just seeing that the monstrous man stagger with ragged breathing, was enough proof for anyone to understand it, the man was afraid of Cheon Ma now.
‘He is not human… kuak!’
Cheon Woo-kyung grabbed his stomach as the Flame Qilin’s blood moved inside.
If he was careless in his movement and control, the Flame qi might devour him.
‘We have no chance of winning.’
Cheon Woo-kyung looked at the face of the subordinate.
If this went on, both would die together.
‘… nothing more can be done.’
It was unfortunate, but it seemed like there was no other chance for Cheon Woo-kyung to escape.
There was no other way to live.
Cheon Woo-kyung, who made that decision, ordered the man.
“Subordinate. Just kill him.”
He said that so that he could run away.
However, the man didn’t respond this time.
“What are you standing there for? Kill him…”
The man turned.
‘Thi…’
He didn’t realize it as he only looked at the back, but when the man turned, he saw that the mask had been torn off, and the face was covered in blood.
‘Shit. His face!’
He tried to keep the man away from the sight of others, but it didn’t work.
But it didn’t matter.
Either way, the man was only going to buy some time for Cheon Woo-kyung to escape.
“Sigh…don’t worry about the mask. Just kill him…”
It was then.
Grab!
“Kuak!”
The subordinate moved at the speed of lightning and grabbed his neck.
Shocked, Cheon Woo-kyung tried to push him away.
“Cough, what are you doing…”
“Who should I kill?”
“What?”
“And who is the subordinate?”
‘!!!’
Cheon Woo-kyung’s face went stiff at the voice, which wasn’t slurred and not child-like anymore.
His eyes trembled at what he thought.
‘N-no way….’
At his bewilderment, the subordinate showed his bright red eyes and shouted with pride.
“I am Heo Bong, the lieutenant of Lord Cheon Yeo-Woon, the Demon God of the Great Heavenly Demon Cult!”
