episode_0031

In Yeon’s sight, a hidden room with a secret chamber was revealed.

One side of the room’s door was broken and blown away.

Evidence of a presence inside.

Sensing the presence of an intruder, Ju Ok-young would have broken down the door and entered to launch a surprise attack.

“Blood.”

Freshly spilled droplets of blood were gradually falling to the ground.

The surprise attack was successful.

But it was not fatal.

This level of bleeding was not fatal.

Then…

Yeon approached closer, opening up her senses to the maximum.

She felt it.

Two presences in the secret chamber underground.

The sound of intense footsteps and clashing weapons could also be heard.

The signs of a fierce battle.

“It’s not too late yet.”

Yeon flew into the underground secret chamber without hesitation.

First, she and Ju Ok-young would combine their strength to eliminate the intruder.

The aftermath could be dealt with later.

Thud.

Swiftly descending the stairs, Yeon crouched down, her eyes wide open.

Quickly assessing the situation.

That was more important than anything else.

Clang!

Thud!

Two figures exchanging sword strikes in a breathless manner.

One was, of course, Ju Ok-young.

And the other was…

Geohan.

The intruder was undoubtedly Geohan.

Finally, she saw his face.

That face…

“…That person.”

Yeon furrowed her brows, biting her lip.

It was a face she recognized.

One of Jangju’s bodyguards.

It was him.

“Her prediction was completely accurate.”

The prediction of Jangju’s confidant.

If that was the case, then the high probability that all of this was happening under Jangju’s tacit approval was also correct.

With that development, there was only one way.

“To kill the author and escape with Ju So-jeo.”

Yeon made her decision.

If Jangju was the mastermind behind everything, she could not stay and witness his confidant’s heinous acts.

It was regrettable that she couldn’t delve deeper, but it was inevitable.

Still, at least Ju Ok-young and she would be witnesses, so the confidant’s despicable deeds would be exposed to the world.

Jangju would undoubtedly face repercussions as well.

“I’ll go.”

Since the sword had no eyes, Yeon signaled to Ju Ok-young first.

In the urgent situation, there was no response, but she must have understood.

Yeon drew a circle and positioned herself behind the opponent.

Facing each other in a surround formation.

This way, they could confirm each other’s movements and make coordinated attacks easier.

Ju Ok-young’s eyes sparkled.

Yeon took it as a signal.

Ju Ok-young moved.

A downward strike filled with the powerful force of the deceptive Danwol sword technique.

“Tsk.”

The opponent desperately blocked the attack with a bleeding forearm.

A gap was exposed in their back.

Now!

Without hesitation, Yeon pierced the gap.

She thought it was a perfect coordinated attack.

At that moment.

A powerful force suddenly extended towards Yeon.

Her eyes filled with astonishment.

She couldn’t react in time to the completely unexpected attack.

Whoosh!

A powerful strike from the sword hit Yeon’s abdomen directly.

Her body flew back as if her spine had been severed, crashing into the wall.

Thud!

“Ugh…”

A pained groan escaped her.

In shock, Yeon couldn’t help but vomit a stream of red blood.

But the shock of pain was nothing.

“Why, why would you…?”

Yeon looked at someone with eyes filled with disbelief.

Standing before her was Ju Ok-young.

With her usual cold expression.

The first attack that had targeted the intruder was a feint disguised as a real attack.

Deceiving Yeon’s eyes, Ju Ok-young then launched a perfect surprise attack on her.

In the end, Yeon was left with a serious injury, barely able to support her trembling body.

Swish.

To end Yeon’s life, Ju Ok-young raised her sword.

But then.

“Stop.”

The intruder spoke briefly.

“Yes, master.”

Joo Ok-young’s movement came to a halt as if it were a lie.

At that moment, Lee Yeon’s pupils shook violently.

Was it because Joo Ok-young stopped moving?

No.

It was because of the words that came out of Joo Ok-young’s mouth.

The words that could only be heard from a slave came out of the mouth of the top martial artist herself.

“Cough… Where has your pride gone, master? It’s not at all like you to bow down to such a despicable threat.”

Lee Yeon desperately spoke, hoping to somehow change Joo Ok-young’s mind.

But.

“Hehehehehe.”

Jang-il burst into laughter, mocking her openly.

“Where is the pride in such a woman?”

“This vile woman. Speaking so rudely with her mouth open…”

“Spit.”

Suddenly, Jang-il spat out dirty phlegm on the floor.

The slimy yellow substance oozed out, leaving a disgusting stain.

“Lick it up.”

“The foolish slave obeys orders, master.”

At Jang-il’s command, Joo Ok-young knelt down and immediately pressed her face to the ground.

Without any hesitation, she extended her tongue and licked the slimy and dirty phlegm.

Slurp.

Like wiping the floor with her tongue, she cleaned up the yellow phlegm back and forth.

And then.

Gulp.

She swallowed the phlegm that was on her tongue.

“T-this is…”

Lee Yeon froze in place.

The bizarre sight that could never happen in reality plunged her mind into a state of panic.

“Oh, is this not enough?”

With a smirk, Jang-il kicked Joo Ok-young’s exposed buttocks forcefully.

Thwack.

Joo Ok-young’s plump buttocks jiggled from the impact.

“Take off everything below.”

“Yes, master.”

Joo Ok-young reached behind her and removed her pants and underwear in one go.

The red marks from the recent kicks were vividly visible on her plump buttocks, now fully exposed.

Her vulva and anus were also blatantly on display.

“M-master…”

Lee Yeon’s face turned pale, and her body trembled.

But this was just the beginning.

Thwack!

“Shake your butt.”

Once again, Jang-il mercilessly kicked Joo Ok-young’s buttocks and commanded her.

“The foolish slave obeys orders, master.”

Joo Ok-young lifted her buttocks higher and vigorously shook them from side to side.

Squelch squelch.

Squelch squelch squelch.

It was as if shaking her buttocks with all her might was her sole purpose in life.

And it wasn’t just her buttocks.

It was her entire exposed buttocks, showing all the embarrassing parts.

The sight was extremely vulgar.

Yet, it was also incredibly lewd.

And bizarre.

Jang-il didn’t stop there.

“Wiggle your asshole.”

“The foolish slave obeys orders, master.”

Squelching, her anus opened and closed repeatedly.

Squelch squelch.

Puckering.

Squelch squelch squelch.

Puckering puckering.

It was a spectacle beneath human dignity.

If anyone saw it, life itself would be completely over.

It declared that she was a wretched and despicable being, worse than livestock, through the movements of her buttocks and anus.

“Kahaha!”

Finally satisfied, Jang-il burst into laughter.

A perfect declaration of victory.

But.

It was also an early declaration of victory.

The opponent was not yet completely incapacitated.

“Die, monster like you must die!”

Has Lee Yeon ever been this excited before?

Absolutely not.

That’s how much she realized that Jang-il was the worst monster ever to come out of the thousand-year martial world.

Compared to that monster, even the Great Enemy of the Martial World or the Blood Demon, known as the worst killers, were nothing.

They may have taken countless lives, but they never trampled, destroyed, mocked, or insulted personalities like that.

They didn’t play with personalities like toys.

Monsters that should not exist in this world!

Yi Yeon gathered all the remaining power with all her might.

She ignored life and death.

A strike of the Donggwi Sword that risked everything.

Taak!

Yi Yeon fiercely attacked Jang Il, driving him to the ground.

Jang Il’s eyes showed surprise.

He didn’t know that she, who was already injured and mentally shocked, could unleash such a powerful attack.

“Quick, protect me!”

Jang Il urgently ordered Ju Okyoung, but it was his own fault that she couldn’t react quickly.

In the urgent situation, following the implied command to obey without a response, Ju Okyoung silently got up, but her posture was so bad.

Yi Yeon’s sword was already falling on Jang Il’s neck.

“Ugh!”

Jang Il screamed.

At that moment.

Newly formed arrows shot out from behind, narrowly deflecting Yi Yeon’s sword upwards.

Kaaang!

Yi Yeon’s sword was lifted up by a strong force.

“Ugh.”

A groan escaped from Yi Yeon’s mouth.

Forcing her injured body to exert too much force.

The impact, propelled by strong force, caused her whole body to scream in pain.

Splat.

Blood trickled from her mouth.

Her injuries had worsened.

Swish.

“It’s over.”

The blade against Yi Yeon’s neck belonged to Yeonsu Rin.

“Knock her out.”

“Yes, Lord.”

Thwack!

Yeonsu Rin’s hand struck Yi Yeon’s neck from behind.

“Ah….”

Yi Yeon’s consciousness faded as she slumped forward.

Yeonsu Rin caught her body and laid her on the ground.

“My lord!”

Jang Il called out with a relieved expression.

A sigh of relief escaped his lips.

He had almost died if they had been a little late.

“I told you not to let your guard down.”

Jang Il scratched his head.

Watching him, Bang Sooun thought.

That’s just his nature.

Even if he went through this a hundred times, he would still let his guard down. He would have to be vigilant from behind as much as possible.

“Enough. She’s fine.”

Bang Sooun’s gaze turned to the unconscious Yi Yeon.

“More importantly, we finally caught Ganja. The plan worked perfectly.”

“As expected of you, my lord.”

Jang Il lifted Bang Sooun up.

But he didn’t forget to emphasize his own contribution.

“I ordered her to stab her arm as a last resort, and she fell for it like a fool, haha.”

“Well done. I acknowledge that.”

Bang Sooun chuckled and spoke.

“That should get us out of immediate danger. But there’s still plenty to be concerned about.”

“What’s that?”

“First, until we have all twenty, we need to keep them from noticing Ganja’s oddity over there.”

“Ah… I see. If they notice the oddity, they’ll come up with a different plan.”

Jang Il nodded.

“And we must not let the other guards notice that her condition is strange.”

We’ve only captured three so far.

Even if we include the unconscious Yi Yeon, it’s only four.

So, until Yi Yeon’s injuries heal and she’s back to normal, we must not let anyone find out.

“I’ll try to hint at it as much as possible.”

“I’ll also tell my wife to let us go out with the girls we’ve captured for the time being.”

“Right. Just be careful until her injuries heal.”

“The two things to be careful of for now. And most importantly…”

“What is it, my lord.”

“Find out thoroughly about the forces behind the scenes, how they made contact, what information they sent, all of that.”

Bang So-woon was not the type to just take what she received at face value.

She was determined to repay at least double of what she received.

Jang Il, of course, shared a similar trait with Bang So-woon.

“Haha, leave it to me, sir. With that kind of information, she’ll soon be spilling the beans without hesitation, right down to the number of my hidden assets.”

Jang Il’s laughter seemed to foretell Yeon’s fate.
