Chapter 492: Chapter 492

Jang Sam-tae trembled his body.

Although he was merely struck in the abdomen, the pain he felt was not just terrible, but felt like his breath would stop. He had realized in just a single move how different his rank was from the opponent’s.

The man who caused that had already brushed past Jang Sam-tae, and was seen approaching the pavilion.

Looking at his actions, he did not seem to care in the slightest about a person like Jang Sam-tae. An action as if even trampling on a bug was a waste.

The composure of a strong person was felt.

“Keuh…!”

However, Jang Sam-tae also could not simply remain collapsed. Just what the man was thinking as he entered here was as clear as looking at a fire.

Knowing it was something bad, he was filled only with the thought that he absolutely had to block him.

Although his power was weak, he had to buy time, if only until Dan Woo-hyun woke up.

Since he could not let everyone’s sacrifices go in vain like this, he forced his unmoving body up and shouted.

“Hey! Where do you think you’re going, you bastard!”

A loud voice rang out ringingly.

Curses toward the opponent spread through the entire Zhoushan Archipelago.

Was it because of that?

The man who was going ahead stopped his steps abruptly.

Slanting his gaze back, he looked at Jang Sam-tae and smirked. It was filled with obvious mockery, but soon he frowned heavily.

Thud!

“Bleh!”

Once again, he was struck in the abdomen.

Simultaneously with a sensation like bones breaking, his mind went blank in an instant. However, Jang Sam-tae did not want to let go of the thread of consciousness by any means, and grabbed his collar while collapsed.

“Wh… Where do you think you’re going, you bastard… cough…”

“Oho…”

The man’s gaze changed oddly.

It was a level sufficient to cause instant death.

Although it looked like a lightly swung single move, in reality, it was not the case. His fist was something even the Hundred Great Experts could not have endured.

Yet he held out and did not even lose consciousness?

The corners of the man’s mouth went up.

“You are an interesting rascal. What is your name?”

“Ke… Keuh… Ja… Jang Sam-tae…”

The man burst into laughter, saying haha.

Looking at his appearance and the state he was dressed in, it was a name that suited him really well. Was it not something likely to be attached to those crawling at the bottom of life somewhere?

Outwardly, Jang Sam-tae was like that and also looked like that.

The man looked down at the collapsed Jang Sam-tae.

Grabbing him by the hair and pulling him up by force, his appearance shedding blood from the corner of his mouth was seen.

“What is your relationship with that Martial God bastard?”

“We… We are… fa… family.”

“Huh?”

As unexpected words were heard, the man wore a strange expression. Was there such a thing as family for Dan Woo-hyun? Because he just went around killing every single one he saw, he could not think that there would be family.

The man, who thought that far, frowned.

Slap!

Crash!

He struck him.

It was nothing more than slapping his cheek, but the aftermath was beyond imagination.

Jang Sam-tae’s body flew away and swept the floor.

Rolling here and there and gouging the ground, he only stopped after flying over ten zhang. Along with a groan of ‘Keuh!’, he vomited blood and his body trembled.

“Are you joking? If so, does that mean you are a thousand years old?”

The man walked with heavy steps toward Jang Sam-tae.

Even while looking at him coughing continuously, he sent a gaze without even a single grain of sympathy. The moment he closed in, he swung his foot and kicked his abdomen once again.

“Ugh!”

“Or do I look funny to you?”

The man wore a dumbfounded expression.

Was there a time he had been looked down upon this much?

Or is he simply a madman?

In any case, he did not like this current situation. Thinking that he was mocked by a fellow worse than a bug, anger welled up.

“It… It is true, you bastard…!”

“Hahaha.”

At that moment, Jang Sam-tae, who swallowed his breath while suppressing the pain, smirked. That was unmistakably an expression and tone intended to mock the opponent.

Whether he thought that since he was going to die anyway, he would die after saying everything he had to say, Jang Sam-tae spoke, drooping the corners of his mouth.

“You… once our… M… Manor Lord wakes up, you’re dead, you bastard, cough! O… Our Manor Lord, do you know how much he cherishes me…”

Jang Sam-tae had certainty.

Such a block of ice?

The Martial God, no, Dan Woo-hyun would easily shatter it and come out. Did it make sense to trap that man with such a thing?

And the moment he comes out, the man in front of his eyes dies.

Considering only that no one had survived after touching the Hunan Dan Family until now, it was a self-evident fact that it would easily become so.

However, from the man’s standpoint, it was an absurd thing.

Cracking his neck and letting out a dumbfounded sound of ‘Ha!’, he spoke.

“You say interesting things. Though I am different from that Blood Demon fellow…”

The man quietly looked at Jang Sam-tae.

Lightly playing his foot, he knocked him over and immediately trampled on his arm.

Crack!

“Kkaaaaaaargh!”

The bone-breaking sound heard violently was not an auditory hallucination. That pain of his bones being crushed while trampled on also made him clearly know it was not a dream.

Jang Sam-tae tried to writhe in pain, but the man shined a smile as if he felt good every time instead.

Lightly lifting his foot, he trampled on his other arm once again.

“Aaargh!”

Jang Sam-tae wriggled like crazy.

The extreme pain surged to his bone marrow, and the situation where he could not even make any resistance drove him further into fear.

Although he had been beaten by those like the Five Emperors or Dan Woo-hyun until now, this kind of pain was a first in his life.

Fear and dread rushed in like a tide and seized him.

Saliva and snot leaked from his mouth and nose, and his eyes shed tears while flushed bright red.

It would have been fine if he had rather fainted, but as if the man would not tolerate even that, he woke up his senses and gave him pain.

“Next… where shall I trample?”

The man checked Jang Sam-tae’s body, which was trembling.

It was exactly like the appearance of a child who enjoyed breaking a toy.

Turning his gaze here and there to check Jang Sam-tae’s body, he eventually raised his foot toward his neck.

“The sound I like listening to best is the sound of neck bones breaking. Actually, the head is better, but the flaw is that this and that gets splattered too much and it becomes annoying.”

“Keh-heh… m… madman…!”

The man lightly applied strength to his foot.

The moment he felt the pressure of that strength, a sensation like his neck bones would break right away arose. He tried to flounder and exert all his strength, but it did not seem like he could escape it.

Soon, the man smiled with a gaze like looking at a wriggling caterpillar.

If he applied a bit more strength like this, that weak neck would break off without any resistance.

The man wore a broad smile.

“It is boring, so let’s end it.”

Jang Sam-tae, who was floundering, heard those words and grabbed his foot. He tried to push it away by any means, but it did not listen.

It was because the strength the opponent possessed was stronger than he thought.

The moment his foot tightened a bit more strongly and now even his windpipe was choked up.

Boom!

Along with a giant sound, something exploded.

Debris splattered in all directions, and stark white chill poured like waves, like a tide.

Broken ice powder fluttered in all directions, and the ground was dug up from a place unknown, and eventually surged to the place where the man and Jang Sam-tae were.

“Keuh!”

The embarrassed man quickly threw his body.

Jang Sam-tae also rolled his body to the side and dodged it.

Simultaneously, the man who floated up in midair glanced at something, and realized a presence as if someone was approaching.

Instantly.

Chill!

He saw something.

It was something in front of his eyes.

He did not feel any presence or sense, but before long, it had approached in front of his eyes. It was to the extent that he could not even know if what was in front of his eyes was human or a ghost, and what was seen was merely a blurry, black shadow.

The red pupils raised wide inside it stared at the man.

“Ugh!”

The moment he was startled and tried to twist his body.

Slash!

Something flew in.

From head to toe.

A flash was drawn in a straight line, and a strange sensation from his crown did not easily fade away.

Just what happened?

The man expressed only doubt without knowing anything.

“You…”

Before long, a short groan leaked from his mouth.

An unspeakable chill.

Terror and fear.

The moment he looked at him, it made him break into a cold sweat, as if even the fine hairs on his entire body stood on end.

What was in front of his eyes was the Heavenly Slaughter, called a human disaster.

Splaaash!

The man’s body was cut away absurdly easily. Dissected in two as it was, it sprayed blood and collapsed to the ground like trash.

Red blood soaked the surroundings. That bizarre expression and appearance of the collapsed person made the viewer feel it was a terrible tragedy.

Tremble, tremble…!

Jang Sam-tae trembled his body without realizing it.

Just how did it turn out like this?

The man who tried to kill him lay sprawled as a corpse, and the one standing blankly in that place was someone he knew well normally.

The one whose entire body was soaked looked at Jang Sam-tae with a slant while facing the fierce wind.

“You look like you’re about to wet your pants.”

“Ah… eh… damn it! If you were going to come out, you should have come out earlier!”

Jang Sam-tae stood up from his seat, shouting roughly.

Puffing and panting as he exhaled anger, he raised his voice.

Because it was a situation where he would have unmistakably died had he not appeared, he was that much afraid and scared, and it was a thing he never wanted to think of again.

Was it because of that?

More than relief, anger arose.

He strode toward him.

Extending his strongly clenched fist, he struck his chest.

A short thud erupted.

Whether he had no strength, or whether he could not bring himself to strike hard.

The moment the extended fist touched Dan Woo-hyun’s body.

For Jang Sam-tae, all sorts of hardships he had experienced until now rushed in like a tide in a single flash.

Tears fell down.

They were tears shed without realizing it.

“Damn it… if you were going to come out, you should have come out quickly… I really thought I was going to clean up corpses.”

The moment he spoke so and wiped his flowing tears.

Crack!

“Kkaaaaaaargh!”

Jang Sam-tae suddenly grabbed his head and collapsed.

As immense pain surged up, unlike until now, he grabbed his head and rolled over and over on the ground. It was so painful that crazy pain shot up.

“You are the first one in a thousand years to strike me.”

Dan Woo-hyun frowned and looked at Jang Sam-tae.

To make him lay a hand on such a fellow of all people?

Whether he also thought of it as funny, he frowned without realizing it.
