49 – Heaven’s First Heaven’s First (5)

The demon who had turned his back on the world was saved by the warmth of a single person.

And the one who used it from beginning to end is a devil himself.

There was no good or evil there, only the logic of power.

* * *

Magick drew upon all power. Advancing in wedges, the destructive power of the demonic legions was too much for even the current Martial Blind to contain.

At least the power of the Five Great Families was able to hold out, but at this rate, even if they won, the damage would be enormous.

In this situation, the Demonic Heavenly Horse himself appeared. Naturally, the enemy’s beast appeared in person, and the Martial Sect responded.

All that was returned was a terrible supply and demand. The Heavenly Horse was speaking. If you want to fight him directly, be prepared to fight to the death.

“Indeed…… if it’s a thousand horses, it’s a thousand spirits.”

“That’s what we call a normal life.”

It was a speech that cut through the admiration of the other martial artists in a single word. It doesn’t matter how much spirit you have, you’re still a killing machine.

Yes, just like my former self. I’ll admit it, I’ll admit it. She was a demon. That’s why you have to take responsibility. You have to stop this.

I don’t think it’s atonement. It’s just taking responsibility. Bi Yan walked forward. Coincidentally, it’s the same place as before.

“You’re later than I thought. I thought you’d jump right out.”

“I have a lot on my mind, unlike you.”

The same area where she had betrayed the Heavenly Horse in her previous life, and where they had fought to the death. The martial artists who had been with her at the time had looked down on her and even turned against her.

Nevertheless, in the end, she had to rely on them. Perhaps if it wasn’t for the Heavenly Demon. It would be the Heavenly Horse that would win.

For it knows this, and it brought you here on purpose. To settle the score. Tianma laughed out loud.

“Yes, that’s the problem.”

“What?”

“The strong are not bound by anything.”

“…….”

“On the other hand, look at the warriors. What is it that they are so particular about?”

“Cause, dignity, prestige. There are so many things that they have to observe. That’s what I don’t like about them.

It was as if their lives were predetermined from the beginning. Aren’t they arguing and fighting amongst themselves? Tianma felt that there was no funnier theater than that.

So, he decided to overthrow them himself. Each one was weaker than the other, and each one was stronger. Biyun agreed with Tianma’s words.

“He’s not wrong.”

“I knew you’d think so, too.”

“But that’s just it.”

She agreed with his values, and she got what she wanted. To be honest, she still thinks he’s not wrong.

Still, the reason she doesn’t follow him is simple. It’s simple. The master is over here, so the disciple has no choice but to follow him.

Someone said, “That’s just another way of saying it. Then Bi Yan will not hesitate to reply, “That’s just being bound by the world. Don’t you dare interfere.

“You’ve made up your mind.”

“Were you trying to appease me?”

“Of course not, it would be a waste to lose a power like you.”

“You are indeed selfish.”

“Thank you for the compliment. So, what is your answer?”

Tianma meant it. Even if they betrayed him. He would invite back anyone he liked. That’s what a tianma was.

Freedom without responsibility. It was almost like the devil himself. That’s why it’s called the Heavenly Horse,” Bi Yan replied, thinking.

“Get lost.”

“Then I guess I’ll have to kill it.”

“If I can.”

The answer had already been decided. The moment he realized it, Tianma and Bi Yan were already swinging their swords at each other. They didn’t even show signs of drawing.

Their near-sonic blows were aimed squarely at each other’s throats, but they soon failed to accomplish their goal. Their swords clashed loudly.

The aftermath alone scarred the terrain around them, shattering the ground. Only the uninitiated and the mages watching from afar are harmed.

“Huh? The aftermath came this far……!!!”

“Is this literally a fight from another world!”

“I didn’t think it would be this far away.”

Not to mention the masters whose minds were still straight.

A swordplay of such high caliber that even the uninitiated, blinded by greed, admire it.

Not merely relying on chi. It was a battle that was literally the height of skill. It was literally a battle of masters. And it was the celestial horse that emerged victorious. Bi Yan stuck out her tongue. She’s still outmatched in head-to-head combat.

“What’s wrong? Didn’t you say you were going to kill me?”

There was strength, but Tianma found another reason.

Slightly disappointed, Tianma still fought with all her might. Bi Yan, on the other hand, had been pushed around.

If it weren’t for her, she would have fallen on her head. She would have been decapitated long ago. Bi Yan gritted her teeth, and with a light slash of her sword, the tianma immediately responded.

“You are not what you used to be. Has there been a change of heart?”

From noble mtl dot com

“…… Of course not.”

“It’s called stealing,” said the Master. It’s called stealing other people’s hard work. I thought about it as a reverse geography teacher.

She would feel very bad if someone else stole her sword technique and used it. So, she made a choice. I will never use anything other than the Heavenly Horse Sword Technique that Master taught me.

So far, she’s managed to get by, but her training is still lacking, and she hasn’t been able to reach the heavenly horses.

“Well, fine, if that’s what you say.”

“…….”

“I’ll make you use your full power after all.”

The enraged Tianma’s momentum crushed him savagely. It was as if he had been struck by lightning from the sky. Her entire body trembled with fear.

Still, she did not back down. To the last, to the last, only for her Master. She would continue to fight to the end, even if it cost her her life.

With conviction, her sword began to thrust more fiercely at the beast. Whether she realized it or not, the beast still had a blank expression on its face.

Bi Yan gritted her teeth. Master……!! Please give me the strength……!!

Recently, Zhongyuan has been very noisy. Apparently, the martial arts school has suddenly begun to synchronize. I haven’t heard the details yet.

However, Jegalsega has been supplying the unmanned front lines from the rear, and has been taking in and protecting refugees.

Originally, Jegalsega was going to participate, but the Martial League refused. Thankfully, I wasn’t dragged along. I wondered what would happen if I joined in.

“Have you heard anything from Yan Yi?”

“I’m sorry, sir. But he’s definitely alive.”

“That’s good to hear, then…….”

“Sooner or later, I’m sure he’ll contact you himself.”

“Thank you.”

Still, given the circumstances. I continued to look for Yan Yi, but Jegalsega said that, unfortunately, he could not tell me the situation directly, but that he would contact me anyway. For such a subject, he was very polite. Before I knew it, I’d moved on.

Well, it’s not like he’s wrong again, I sighed. All I could do was hope he’d be okay in the end.

Of course, I was trying to help in some small way. It wasn’t that I wasn’t scared, but I still had my apprentice, Biyun, out there fighting.

As a teacher, I can’t stand idly by, can I?”

“What are you thinking, Bi-Yeon?”

This is the Bi-Yeon I taught myself, though I don’t think she would do anything bad. I’m not just saying that because I’m her teacher. She’s really a good girl. She’s very polite, and she’s talented.

But I was worried that she had too much talent. I hope she’s safe.

I hope she’s safe.I couldn’t help but feel a nagging sense of foreboding. I smiled wryly. Looking back, I had no idea that the child I picked up would turn out like this. “I hope I see you again.” “I hope you make it back safely and I can see your face again.” I could only hope. I only hoped so. It was already nighttime. I immediately unfolded my futon.

The house was unnecessarily spacious, and unnervingly quiet. I lay down wordlessly. Slowly, my eyes began to close.

“Master……!!!”

“Huh?”

Of course, it was the face I had hoped to see in my dreams. That’s what I thought, but what is this? I couldn’t help but look dumbfounded.

Before I knew it, I was standing in front of a grown woman. I looked around. I could see the starry night sky.

For the first time in my life, I was dumbfounded. After all, it’s a bit strange to actually meet Yan in a dream.

If I really did meet Yeon in a dream. It seems like I care about her too much. I feel a little self-conscious.
