Return of Mount Hua Sect

There are also defeats worth more than victories. (5)

“Who are you?”

“… … I don't think he's a great disciple?"

The disciples of Hwasan looked at the air on the non-stage with puzzled faces.

Just looking at the age and color of their faces that can be inferred from their faces, they were clearly different from the great disciples they had dealt with so far.

And even if it didn't have to look different, you would have known.

'Something different.'

The relaxed relaxation and strange emptiness felt implicitly stimulated the onlookers.

“Are you an elder?”

“Weren’t there only one elder?”

“I don’t think he’s a great disciple?”

As the question deepened, Hungong, standing on the non-stage, quietly opened his mouth.

"I am… … .”

It was indeed a heavy sound.

The moment the first word fell, it was loaded with presence enough to grab the attention of the volcano's disciples.

“The elder of the shaman, Heo Gong.”

elder?

At the appearance of another elder, the eyes of the volcano disciples were dyed with doubt.

The air, which drew everyone's attention, continued speaking with a faint smile.

“I have seen the volcano and the shaman’s secret dance. It was a good time to realize how excellent the students of the volcano are. The shaman's disciples must have learned a lot too. As the elder of the shaman, I am extremely grateful for the teachings of Hwasan.”

With both hands in the center, the air swept quietly.

Seeing that, Baekcheon tilted his head and said to Cheongmyeong.

“… … Is it more common sense than you think?”

“That?”

“Is that so?”

From worn-out uniforms to loosely tied hair. Comparing it with Heo San-ja, who looked like a veil when touched, it was hard to believe that he was the same scholar. So, of course, I thought that his personality would be a bit eccentric, but the words that came out of his mouth did not deviate even the slightest bit from politeness.

“Look a little more.”

"Yes?"

However, Cheongmyung raised the corners of his mouth.

“The more you look, the more you will know.”

At those words, Baekcheon narrowed his eyes and looked into the air. At that moment, he unleashed his grip and opened his mouth again.

“If you have received favor, it would be reasonable to repay it. But the shaman has nothing to offer the volcano.”

Gong Gong pretended to be worried and let out a sob, a sound, and said.

“Hani, how about this?”

A sly smile appeared on his lips.

“It seems that the great disciples of the shaman did not give proper instruction to the disciples of Hwasan, so I think it would be better for me, the elder of the shaman, to step forward and teach. Wouldn't this be good for each other?"

The faces of the volcanic disciples became frighteningly cold.

The word that stimulated them was none other than the word 'teaching'.

A while ago, Gong Gong said that he was taught by the volcano with his own mouth, but that can only be said when lowering himself.

Teaching other sects was something that anyone who knew even the slightest bit of etiquette could never say. This was several times more rude than outright ignorance.

"teaching?"

"this… … .”

The sound of grinding teeth echoed here and there. Ignoring myself was all I could endure. But it was unbearable that the volcanoes were all ignored.

Still, there were two reasons why I couldn't keep my head down. First of all, it was the elders of the shaman who put out those long hair, and the bigger reason was that they were not the ones who had to respond to those words first.

"now… … .”

Phenomenon quietly opened her mouth.

“Did you say teaching?”

His voice had subsided. But the air looked back with a relaxed face.

“Can I ask who you are?”

“… … The phenomenon of being the elder of the volcano.”

“Oh, I think it was the elder.”

He looked lightly swept towards the phenomenon.

This, too, was not against the rules. But the eyes watching him were not good enough.

The air smiled brightly.

“Isn't it supposed to start with getting out of the arrogance and pretentiousness? As the elder of the shaman, I don't think there's anything wrong with teaching the disciples of the volcano?"

A cold chill crept over Hyunjin's face.

Hyun-young, who was standing next to him, also stared into the air with an angry expression. Phenomenon kept his manners to the end and spoke succinctly.

“The volcano is not weak enough to ask Tamun for guidance.”

Then he stared blankly at him without answering.

“Even if there is a need for teaching, that is what the volcano should ask for. It is not given by a shaman.”

“Hmm.”

The air nodded as if there was some truth to those words.

“You are right.”

“… … .”

“If it were an ordinary clan, it would be.”

“… … What do you mean?”

“I’m sorry.”

The air looked around the disciples of the volcano.

“The young disciples of the volcano are all outstanding. They are all so talented that I am greedy.”

Phenomenon waited patiently for the next word. There was no one here who did not know that the next words were the main point.

"one… … .”

Unsurprisingly, there was a small smile on the lips of the air.

“No matter how great a talent is, it is difficult to see the light if there is no one who can sharpen it. It seems to me that Volcano still cannot handle their talents?”

"this… … !”

Surprisingly, Phenomenon was not particularly angry when he heard that.

It was none other than the white porcelain and the celadon porcelain that were very angry.

“That damn… … .”

“Be quiet.”

“But, Elder!”

“I told you to be quiet.”

Hyun-young's cold voice interrupted their vigilance.

Volcano's disciples bit their lower lip hard. To those who had seen Unsword's battle with their own eyes a moment ago, it was unbearable to say insults to the superiors of the volcano, especially the words that the superiors of the volcano were not good enough to teach them.

Hana Hyun-young can't let them get excited either.

No matter how much he talks, the opponent is an elder of a shaman. The young disciples were not the ones to talk to.

Moreover, you can clearly feel the intention of the person who is scratching you openly.

But, as if he had no intention of letting go at this point, he spoke again in a relaxed voice.

“It’s unfortunate. Who can enjoy watching talents capable of fully blooming without ever being able to bloom without meeting the right environment?”

“… … .”

“I don’t know if it’s any other clan, but it’s a volcanic thing that walks the same path, so it’s natural to want to help.”

Phenomenon's lips trembled slightly.

It wasn't the haircuts coming out of the author's mouth that bothered him. It wasn't even the current situation where it was difficult to refute those words, or the look that looked down on the volcano.

What really bothered him was the thought flashed through his mind that, even at this insult, asking the elders of the shaman for instruction might help his disciples.

Because there is nothing wrong with that statement.

The disciples of the volcano showed a very good figure. Not to mention the victorious ones, even the defeated disciples showed a struggle that brought tears to their eyes.

To the extent that it doesn't seem like a dream to catch up with that shaman.

However, if there is no one to guide you from above, as the sky says, one day you will hit the limit. And even if they jumped over that wall, in the process, the disciples of Hwasan would have to fight an incomparable battle with other nobles.

Because the superior cannot lead.

'Is my humble self-esteem important?'

I was about to open my mouth, suppressing bitter emotions, and Hyunyoung, who was watching the situation from the side, spoke quickly.

“I will ask you one thing.”

“Say it.”

“This position is the difference between victory and defeat, but if the dojang comes out from here, what will happen to victory or defeat?”

“Did you say win or lose?”

"That's right."

Hyunyoung took a few deep breaths and muttered.

“The shaman still needs two more wins to win. Isn't that what the elders are going to fight on their own?"

At the sharp question, Gonggong smirked.

“Win or lose… … . win or lose... … . Does that matter to Moore?”

“… … .”

“Bimu is ultimately about comparing each other’s ignorance and learning from each other. If there is something we have gained from each other, winning or losing is a good thing.”

Hyungwon's face hardened. The air smiled and pressed a wedge.

“If you have to decide whether to win or lose to be relieved, it is safe to say that it is a victory for the volcano.”

Hyunyoung clenched her fists under her sleeves.

'This little guy... … .'

In front of everyone, he doesn't care about winning or losing. This is a feat to lower the meaning of this secret dance itself.

It was also the best move a shaman could come out with, who lost a lot even if he won. It was the mistake of Hyun-young, who brought the topic to that point, not thinking that an elder who was not even Heo San-ja would show a good speech.

just as expected.

Hearing those words, the crowd began to murmur.

“Was the shaman winning? But a volcanic victory?”

“Doesn’t that mean winning or losing doesn’t matter? It’s just an exchange where you can compete in moderation.”

“Then it means that the shaman hasn’t done his best until now?”

"that… … .”

The middle class also seemed a bit confused. Then someone shouted in a confident voice.

“Well then! If the shaman had fought sincerely, where would he have lost to the great disciples of Hwasan?”

“What! Do you say that even after seeing Bimu with your own eyes? Where was it that you were fighting?”

“Ttttttttt. What do you know with those eyes? The great disciples of the shaman are going to have to lose to the second great disciples of Hwasan. Looking at the face of the volcano, he lost in moderation, and then won successive victories!”

"haha! He brings them and puts them on as he likes them!”

The audience also began to flirt with their opinions. Of course, there were many who took the side of the volcano. However, until a while ago, the reputation of winning even if the volcano was lost was overwhelming.

'Damn it.'

Hyunyoung bit her lip tightly in anger.

If an elder comes out from the other side, the elder must come from this side as well. But he and Phenomenon could never stand up to that void.

In that case, you have to step back and step back, but in the current situation, if you are curling your tail, it will be like admitting that the superior of the volcano cannot deal with the elder of the shaman.

'how should… … .'

Hyunyoung glanced at Hyunjin's expression. The phenomenon was also not able to come up with an answer.

one.

Hyungwon knows. Who always answers when they can't come up with a solution?

'Cheongmyung... … .'

"no!"

“… … .”

It's like he's half a beat fast.

The disciples of Hwasan turned to Qingmyeong in unison. Cheongmyung, who was poorly squatting on the floor, looked up at the air and opened his mouth.

“Don’t try to sneak up on it, just go straight ahead. So you lost, what is it?”

“… … Well?"

“You mean we won?”

"haha."

The void burst into laughter.

“It’s good to think like that.”

“No, you don’t seem to understand what you are saying at all.”

“… … What did you do?”

Qingming slowly got up from his seat.

“So, the shaman lost, right?”

“… … .”

“Why can’t you answer me? Until a while ago, you were very good at talking.”

He smiled and narrowed his eyes and asked.

“Who are you?”

“Cheongmyung.”

Qingming smiled, revealing this.

“It’s a little childish, but it’s called the Volcano God Dragon.”

The eyes of the volcano, the shaman, and everyone gathered here all at once poured down on Cheongmyeong.
