Return of the Mount Hua Sect - Chapter 254

Chapter 254 – I Dug My Own Grave (4) (Draft)

Baek Cheon looked up at the sky with a sad expression as he saw the light shine in.

‘He isn’t dead.’

Die a little!

Yu Yiseol, Jo Gul and Yoon Jong also looked at the gate of Mount Hua.

“Humans should act like humans!”

“Ah! He! He is really pushing his luck!”

“Where is a mad man who robs his own house?”

“I have no answer. This is a mess.”

It felt like their body was turned inside out.

‘We cannot say this. This cannot come out.’

If they rushed to the sect leader, it felt like the situation would only get worse, so they were holding onto it, but they felt guilty.

He had no choice but to endure this truth within them.

In the midst of that, a person who walked in with a fine face.

“Chung Myung!”

When the other disciples, unaware of the circumstances, found Chung Myung, they rushed for him.

“Something bad happened! There was a thief in Mount Hua yesterday! Our cold iron pot was stolen!”

“What?”

Chung Myung looked wide eyed.

“Did

Such

A

Thing

Happen

?“

Do not act you idiot! It is embarrassing for me to see!

But unfortunately, the other disciples didn’t notice it.

“He was so strong. Yoon Jong sahyung fell down in one hit.”

“Tch tch, this is what happens when you neglect training.”

You dog…

Yoon Jong’s face turned red.

A person needs to have a conscience. And where in the world is one who turns every situation to his advantage?

“The elders are still looking for him…. But it might be hard to catch him.”

“Uh. We cannot help it. he would be caught if he was easy.”

We did catch him.

Right. We caught him. You idiot.

Chung Myung shrugged.

“There is nothing we can do about someone we lost.”

It was then.

“Chung Myung! Sect leader said he wants to meet you once you are back.”

“Okay.”

Chung Myung smiled and headed to the sect leader’s residence. Baek Cheon with the others followed him behind.

“conscience?”

“What?”

At Yoon Jong’s words, Chung Myung asked like he didn’t know.

Ah, that look!!

If he could have one wish granted, it is to hit this guy in the face!

I wouldn’t mind killing him and coming to heaven!

“Kuak.”

Yoon Jong let out a groan and took a deep breath.

Beside him, Baek Cheon grunted.

“I will inform sect leader.”

“I have no idea what you are trying to say. Why are you so anxious and like this to a person who was healing from his internal wounds?”

“Internal wounds? Internal woundssss?”

Does a one suffering with internal wounds come out at night like that? at least don’t make obvious lies!

“Anyway, it has nothing to do with me, don’t harass me. If you continue to do this, I will speak to the elders. Then sahyung and sasuk will be punished.”

“…”

Who is harassing whom?

Who>

“Uh!”

“Sasuk.”

“Sasuk calm down.”

Baek Cheon was unable to hold back the anger, Jo Gul and Yoon Jong rushed to him.

Chung Myung chuckled and headed into the sect leader’s residence.

“… where is Mount Hua heading to?”

The voice of Baek Cheon was low as he looked away mumbling.

“Right! Is your body alright?”

“Yes!”

“Oh oh! Thank supreme-ruler! I was worried since I heard some bad news last night. I was going to ask about you, wondering if they were after you. but seeing you well puts my heart at ease.”

“Hehe, that thief would fall after one hit from me.”

“Right, true.”

Hyun Jong looked at Chung Myung with the most trusted eyes.

“But… um. But I have no face to show you. It is all because of our ignorance that the thief managed to get this done. It is all out fault.”

“Eh. What are you talking about? I am just glad no one is hurt. And that is just cold iron. You can get it again. Can things be more important than people?”

“Oh.”

“Chung Myung.”

“Taoist. A true taoist.”

“hehehe. It is nothing. This is natural if one is a disciple of Mount Hua.”

“Right. Right. Chung Myung.”

Hyun Jong looked at Chung Myung with a happy face. But there were ones who hated this sight.

Tremble.

As Baek Cheon shook his body, Yoon Jong grabbed the thigh.

‘Sahyung. I know you hate this, but not here.’

“Ugh.”

Baek Cheon took a deep breath.

I’d rather not come here! Why come all the way to see this horrible thing?

“But, sect leader. This isn’t something we can simply leave at that.”

“Um?”

Hyun Sang spoke with a stiff face.

“First of all, someone had come into Mount Hua knowing about the cold iron.”

“Ugh.”

Hyun Young frowned.

“From sahyungs word, information is going out of Mount Hua?”

“I didn’t put it like that. maybe he just came to look around and then found it. but that doesn’t change the fact that someone had come up this rugged Mount Hua.”

“Um.”

Hyun Young nodded.

“In other words, it means that the people are starting to get wary of Mount Hua.”

“In the end, yes.”

“Actually, things have been going well for us. Mount Hua has an alliance with the Sichuan Tang family, and also started trading with the Best Palace. Those with quick information groups will know that Mount Hua is changing.”

“And since the Southern Edge incident…”

“Right.”

Hyun Jong nodded his head.

It is good for Mount Hua to develop, but eventually, if their position rises, everyone would keep their eyes on them.

“First of all, even if the kids are a bit uncomfortable, they will hold onto this for now and we can have a better start.”

“Yes sect leader.”

Listening to that, Chung Myung smiled.

‘What?’

You people are not at the level to say that!

What can you do with those droopy shoulders?

Ah, you cute disgusting things.

He was thinking about telling them the truth, but they looked so cute that he decided to leave them alone.

Being alert and careful isn’t a bad thing. If not now, it is clear that Mount Hua will soon become the target of other sects.

“That is why this is even more important.”

Hyun Sang turned his head and looked at Chung Myung.

“Chung Myung. Is your body fully healed?”

“Yes.”

“Then can you really cut through it?”

“Yes, of course.”

“Um.”

A sense of pride which couldn’t b hidden was oozing out of Hyun Sang’s face.

‘I knew that Chung Myung is strong.’

In the first place the elders of Mount Hua already regard Chung Myung as the most talented person.

Chung Myung who defeated Jin Geum-Ryong, who was supposed to be the best in the world from Southern Edge Sect’s side.

And within a year of entering the sect, Un Geom said.

‘I cannot teach him. If you leave him alone, he will get stronger on his own, so either leave him alone or we need have you teach him personally’

At the point of time, 2 years passed and he fights with the elder of the Wudang sect and now he fought with the elder of the Tang family, and defeated him too!

Were there any of the elders in Mount Hua who can confidently go against the Tang family and win?

In other words, Chung Myung is the best in Mount Hua.

“Your skills are terrifying.”

“All thanks to the teaching of Mount Hua.”

“hehe. so humble.”

Chung Myung smiled.

I didn’t lie! I didn’t!

In fact, the reason Chung Myung is strong is because of what he learned from Mount Hua. Of course, not the current Mount Hua.

The smiles on the faces of the elders didn’t leave at the calm words, and he asked.

“Sect leader. Shouldn’t we go check it now?’

“I guess so.”

Hyun Jong hesitated a little.

Something he couldn’t open till now.

How many days did he tear up in front of the underground warehouse when Mount Hua was in a mess?

However, he never dreamed that he would be cutting it down. if someone gets greedy for the things inside, Mount Hua has no power to stop.

Treasure which can only be seen in dreams exists.

But he felt more scared than happy when it came to opening it. It is because he was afraid the inside wouldn’t be what he wanted.

But, Hyun Sang didn’t understand that.

“Right. Then can we go get it done?”

“Sure.”

“Right. Sect leader!”

“Um! I get it!”

This is the sign.

Hyun Jong got up. And he went to one side of the room and pulled a scroll hanging on the wall and pushed the wall.

Grrr

With the sound of rubbing, the part he touched was pushed inside.

“C-can you show it to all of us?”

“What is inside will be brought out, so what is the point of hiding the way to it? and I don’t want to keep any more secrets from you.”

“Sect leader…”

Hyun Jong pulled the handle inside without delay.

And then with a creaking sound, the floor moved to the side showing them an entrance for one person to fit in at once.

“Now, let’s go.”

“Yes.”

Everyone in the room got up at once. However, only Baek Cheon’s party hesitated, not being sure about entering.

“Come in.”

“Sect leader. We are….

“Didn’t I tell you? I do not want to keep any more secrets in Mount Hua. Come.”

Baek Cheon, who heard that, nodded.

“I understand, sect leader.”

As they went down, they saw a fairly spacious hallway unlike the entrance.

‘I had done it good.’

Chung Myung looked up. The huge hole he tried to fix.

“It is dark.”

“… in the beginning there were night stone lamps planted in the hallway.”

“Where did they go?”

“We needed money right?”

“…”

Hyun Young went silent.

Ahh… the money from selling them. Had he known he would have asked more money.

“There.”

After a while, a large door appeared.

“This?”

“Right. This is what the sect leaders of Mount Hua are handed down each generation.”

“Oh…”

Hyun Young looked at the door with a frown. The door with lines drawn on it gave him a strange feeling.

“How do we open the door in the first place?”

“Well, I think, maybe if a specific martial arts is used then it can be opened.”

“… then it has to be learnt.”

“I don’t know. It has to be in there.”

As soon as those words fell, everyone looked at Chung Myung.

They cannot open it in the normal way, so now they had to hand this over to Chung Myung.

“It is a bit embarrassing if you all look at me like tha.”

Chung Myung, said words which didn’t suit him at all, slowly drew the sword.

“Phew.”

Taking a deep breath, Chung Myung raised his sword and aimed for the door.

‘Should I pretend like it is tough?’

He could cut it off at once considering how thin it is, but would that be too much? He has to cut it a couple times to make it look like he put effort.

Hehe!

“Stand back.”

“Okay!”

“Please do good!”

As the elders hurried back, Chung Myung looked at the door with sullen eyes.

‘The lines on the door will be useful later, so I will leave them alone. I will cut around it.’

Chung Myung smiled and pulled the sword.

“Ohh!”

“The sword!”

“Good job! Good!”

Without delay, Chung Myung swung the sword to the door.

First, lengthwise!

Kang!

“Uh?”

Kang?

Not slash but Kang?

Chung Myung looks wide eyed. His sword was touching the sword.

“Uh?”

Why isn’t it cutting?

He grunted and pulled the sword, and approached the crack. Soon his eyes shook.

“… no! this man! Why did you have to make the door this thick!”

“What?”

“Ah nothing… nothing.”

Chung Myung’s face contorted.

Did you make the walls and the ceiling and the floor so thin and the door this thick? Human what is with your brain!

In fact, the front is thick because this is where one had to go in, but now Chung Myung didn’t have the time to think about that.

‘If we came from the side, it would have been easier.’

If he had known this would happen, he would have opened this alone!

Now he had too many eyes behind him.

“Is it difficult?”

Hyun Jong asked with a sad face. Chung Myung couldn’t do anything and only groaned.

“Ugh… no. it can be done!”

“Right. Chung Myung! Cheer up!”

Once again he held onto the sword and took a deep breath.

“Ugh! For real!”

Not a single thing comes easy for me! Not one thing!

“Uhhhhhhh!”

Kaaaang!

“Uhhhhhhhh!”

Kaaaang!

“Ah, I feel horrible!”

Kang! Kang! Kang! Kang! Kaaang!

Chung Myung started swinging his sword randomly. If he cannot cut it at once he will cut it a hundred times or a thousand times. Of course, it will not be easy to cut this down with such swings.

“Not a single thing helps me! Damned man!”

See this? I will come catch you! I will! What? I cannot enter there? I will escape from hell to come make you suffer!

Chung Myung kept spitting out words of anger.

Just a little bit.

“Kuak….”

Thud!

Kiiik!

At the time Chung Myung fell to the side, the door which was cut on the sides, collapsed.

Bang!

“Ooh!”

“it is open.”

“Chung Myung! You did an amazing job! You worked really hard!”

Chung Myung, who was drenched in sweat, just mumbled as he looked at the ceiling. His gasps echoed in the hallway.

“Uh… you must be getting your revenge like this.”

Sect leader sahyung, you damned thug!

-Hehehehe

Ah, just don’t laugh!

Don’t!
