Chapter 112. Gu Hui, The Tooth of A Beast
ED: Chrysanthemum
Gu Hui’s shoulders shook lightly.
His actions had no warning whatsoever, and when Cho Ryu Hyang’s eyes began to widen from surprise, Un Hui’s body moved like a shadow in front of Cho Ryu Hyang.
Tukakaka-!
A cloud of dust rose up, and a huge movement of inner energy blew Cho Ryu Hyang’s hair upwards.
“Your body is injured.”
“…….”
Un Hui was unable to say anything.
He was right.
His body was still recovering.
“How interesting. Just how long do you think you can hold on?”
“…….”
Un Hui desperately tried to manage the injury inside himself.
He had expected the attack’s trajectory and prepared himself to take it, but the energy that flowed into him from the attack was even more massive than he had thought.
‘To think a light attack would be like this…’
Even for experts in the harmonious stage, the difference in power existed.
The man in front of Un Hui wasn’t someone he could take on, even when he was in his best condition.
Right then, Cho Ryu Hyang, who was standing behind Un Hui, stepped sideways, and opened his mouth.
“So, a refusal, then?”
Gu Hui’s lips twitched.
“What?”
Was this boy a madman?
Did he really not realize what kind of situation he was in?
Right then, the little boy opened his mouth and had a chilly gaze in his eyes.
“Don’t you regret your decision.”
“…….”
It almost seemed like the boy spat out his words.
Gu Hui, at this moment, felt uncomfortable for an unknown reason.
What was this feeling?
The moment he thought about this, he realized why he was feeling like this.
‘His eyes, huh?’
The eyes that the kid had wasn’t that of a madman’s.
‘They are the eyes of someone carefully analyzing the situation avoid of any emotion.’
Those eyes were those of someone who was far above somebody else.
Cho Ryu Hyang drew another line across the one he drew already on the floor, forming a cross.
Gu Hui, after seeing this, made a surprised face.
‘That kid was the one who made the formation?’
Now that he thought about it. this situation in itself was peculiar.
There was no reason why the heir would just appear, was there?
And just who would have the gall to be so calm in a massive formation like this?
After thinking this far, Gu Hui began moving.
He realized that this was not the time to fool around.
There was a powerful warning signal going on in his mind.
‘Kill.’
Gu Hui’s hands began to turn red like the sunset.
Un Hui, upon seeing this, took out his sword and lowered his posture.
‘Block.’
He had to block.
He had to prevent the man from even touching the heir.
As long as he, Un Hui, was alive, Gu Hui wouldn’t be even able to get near the heir.
Grit-!
Un Hui bit down on his teeth and prepared himself to receive the strike.
“You think you can block it?”
“…….”
You dare think you had even the qualifications to block the attack?
Gu Hui was planning on using his most powerful move right from the get-go.
It was unfortunate that he would not be able to play with the man in front of him right now, but there was no choice.
He had to kill the boy before anything strange happened.
If he didn’t do that, things would quickly become extremely complicated.
‘Loyal Flame Fist.’
Once the amount of red energy on his fists reached its peak, Gu Hui charged at Cho Ryu Hyang.
Kuauuuung-! (The sound of piercing wind)
With it, the air around Gu Hui burned away with a reddish light.
The man was charging like a cannonball with an appearance that resembled a giant sun.
‘Hoooo.’
Un Hui caught his breath and exhaled slowly.
Then, he drew a circle in front of him using the sword in his hand.
A grey light appeared on the path of the sword.
This was the strongest move that Un Hui knew so far.
The move that he created using everything he had seen and learned so far.
‘Joyful Dance of The Demon Sword.’
From the circle came an immense amount of power, and Un Hui’s body began to get sucked into the circle.
And the moment the two collided,
Cho Ryu Hyang opened his mouth.
“You can stop now.”
Un Hui smiled bitterly.
This wasn’t something that the boy could stop right now.
After all, neither of them were able to stop their attacks at this point.
‘But…..’
Un Hui was starting to feel a little confused.
Some time had already passed since the two used their moves, but they still hadn’t collided.
The same face of confusion was on Gu Hui’s face as well.
‘This is…….’
No matter how much either of them ran, they didn’t get nearer.
Gu Hui stopped walking and looked at Cho Ryu Hyang.
He frowned.
A feeling of danger passed by behind his back.
‘Could it be……’
When he slowly turned back, he could see that his subordinates had disappeared.
The formation changed.
Just a single moment.
It was just a single moment when he separated from them, but that moment was enough to separate him from the group.
Gu Hui was filled with a feeling of desperation.
Whoosh-!
The boiling energy inside him disappeared.
‘So he was going for this from the beginning…….’
The boy provoked him in order to get him to move.
And the moment he made an irrational move, the boy separated him from everyone else.
‘How scary.’
Gu Hui took a look around himself.
The formation, as he expected, had no holes in it.
That boy had been controlling the area this entire time.
‘I’m useless.’
Grit-
Gu Hui bit down on his teeth.
He was getting angry at himself for being such an idiot.
He had made a huge mistake.
The boiling emotions inside him exploded for an instant, then faded away just as quickly as they came.
Gu Hui was furious.
He was furious at himself for being played by a child.
After pushing away his rage into one corner of his mind, Gu Hui attempted to analyze the situation calmly, and he reached a conclusion immediately.
‘I can’t fight him in the formation.’
Then what should he do?
There was only a single way to get out of this situation.
‘There’s not much time.’
The people he brought were elites from the Nanman Beast Gate.
Each one of them was powerful, but there was no guarantee that they could survive the formation.
It would be very hard for them to survive in a formation made by someone like this.
