“H-How did you?”

Mu Ack looked at me in shock. I didn’t expect the game to play out this long, but he ended up being released at a crucial time.

-What will you do? Wonhwi?

What can I do? You want me to confess?

I heard nothing important, so how do we end this?

Mu Ack shouted at me with a distorted expression, as if he understood what was happening this time.

“Did you trick me with some illusion?”

Well, it was some kind of an illusion. That was because I showed him a hallucination.

I smiled and said.

“I got you well.”

He jumped up after hearing my sarcastic words. His dantian was destroyed, so the pain must be intense with every movement. He must be quite angry to move like this.

I pushed him against the wall.

Bang!

“Kuak!”

“Do not overdo it with this weak body of yours.”

“You are cheating!”

It was true that he was speaking about moral things as if he seemed to know what had happened.

“It is your fault for cheating. It is funny that a person who deceived the people of the Dual Martial Forces for so many years would say something like this.”

I pushed him further into the wall after I said those words. When I pressed down on his chest area, he groaned.

“Urghh.”

“Let us finish what we were talking about. Should I ask about that first? We discussed the Blood Sect earlier, so who is the Blood leader?”

“Ugh…. Do you think I would say it?”

“If you do not talk, I will give you something that will not compare to the pain you are experiencing now.”

I had a knack for these kinds of things.

-You know how to do things in the dark.

Until it got there, it was all experience.

One of the things I learned when I was a spy was how to endure torture.

That was thanks to the numerous torture methods imprinted in my head. Even while he groaned, he smiled.

“Do you think I would be afraid of this?”

Was he accustomed to torture?

Then, should we try something else?

I was about to move my hand, but he immediately spoke to me.

“As expected, my prediction was right.”

“What?”

“You, too, are related to a woman who seems to be a descendant of that Blood Demon.”

Was he trying to get information from me?

What a stubborn man. However, he was in a position where he was being held by me, and I was the one doing the interrogating.

“That is not something you need to know. You should answer my questions, though.”

I put my finger on one of his blood points. When internal qi was applied to it, the bones and muscles there would have difficulty moving.

Cleck!

I pressed onto the points and infused internal qi inside.

“Ugh!”

I could hear how painful it was for him. He gritted his teeth and groaned to endure it.

“Who is the leader?”

“Ughh.” Google search 𝐟𝚛e𝗲𝚠𝗲𝑏𝓃𝑜ν𝐞𝘭. c𝒐𝓂

He was visibly in pain but still chose to not speak despite his face becoming red. I gritted my teeth and looked at him in shock.

He had bit his lip hard enough to draw blood and was glaring at me with furious eyes. His already horrid face looked even more horrifying now.

-So scary.

I didn’t care.

I had no intention of stopping this until he spoke. He then opened his mouth.

“Ugh… fine.”

“You want to talk?”

“Fucking shit. This will be fine now.”

“What do you mean?”

“Well, things all went wrong because of you. If it wasn’t for you, everything would have been done according to His will.”

His?

Was he talking about No Name?

He continued to speak even under the pain of his bones being pressured.

“It is fine now. I will kill you with my hands.”

“What can you do with that…”

Bubble!

‘…?!’

At that moment, the blood vessels on his forehead swelled.

I could notice because I was close to his body. The swelling wasn’t due to my internal qi. When I opened up my mid dantian, I could see through my covered-up golden eye.

-What is he doing?

‘His qi is being moved.’

There was a qi that was being pushed into the center of his heart. It wasn’t the color of internal qi.

This was a ‘you die, and I die’ type of qi.

Since he couldn’t handle innate qi like I could, he assumed that he could destroy his dantian and take me down with him.

But now this guy was still hiding a trump card.

‘Tch.’

I tried to seal his blood points to stop him.

But at that moment, a strong force seemed to move through his body. The moment I touched his shoulder, I was pushed back.

Pang!

I was shocked as I got pushed back by four steps.

His internal qi, which had been scattered through the body due to the destruction of his dantian, was gathering around his chest.

I overlooked this

The fact that, despite his capture, he was still one of the Five Evils.

He was trying to use his heart to replace the core of his dantian because he had crossed over that wall and opened his qi point.

Mu Ack shouted.

“” Even if I die on the spot here, I will kill you!

Pat!

Mu Ack’s form rushed forward, and I hurriedly kicked his wrist away.

The moment he tried to slit my wrist, the area near the cave’s ceiling became cracked.

Check!

At that moment, the man drew the index finger of his left hand right in front of my nose as if trying to cut it.

I crossed my wrists, and a sharp blow pierced through them, causing my flesh to split and blood to spurt out.

Mu Ack sighed.

“Without Lord Jin, can you even save yourself?”

The man seemed quite pleased at the sword qi he had used. It seemed like he was convinced he could reach my body with it.

In reply, I released my crossed arms and said,

“You should say that after killing me.”

He couldn’t help but be flustered at the confidence in my voice despite the cut on my arm.

“You…! How?”

“Certainly, your qi was scattered before, so you couldn’t do it for a while.”

He would have killed me if he had been in perfect condition.

Because I was right in front of him, he should do it. However, it seemed like he was holding for too long to gather his scattered qi.

“Who are you?”

Aside from being weak, he seemed very surprised that I managed to stop him with only a small slash on my wrist.

I could understand his actions since my wrist had only been cut very meekly.

“If you overdo it, you will die. Stop and tell me who it is.”

I could see his qi slowly dying away through my golden eye.

Since he didn’t train his innate qi, it would lead to his death soon.

Clench!

He gnashed his teeth.

“I have enough power to kill you!”

Mu Ack shouted and launched forward.

Pat!

He spread his hand again, and the same sharp qi moved out in numerous trajectories.

The swordsman who did his best seemed to be showing off that he was a warrior who had reached the super realm.

It felt like he was ready for his body to be torn to shreds. To think that he could still demonstrate this level of power and sword technique.

In that case…

I opened up my top dantian.

Shhh!

At that moment, I felt something opening up within my body.

Before I reached the wall, I couldn’t use more than 5 levels of internal qi.

But now it seemed like I could bring out up to 7 levels of internal qi.

‘Blood Heaven Great Arts, Fourth Form.’

I kept myself calm as I continued, and a red haze rose from my fingers.

‘What?’

My will scattered around the prison and dug into the trajectory of his sword attacks.

Papapak!

Mu Ack and I were pushed back by about five paces, but it was Mu Ack who looked on incredulously.

It must have seemed so because of the Blood Demon’s will.

“Y-You in that form, what is it? The remaining descendants of the Blood Demon are all women…”

“Wrong.”

Pat!

I jumped towards him and launched qi towards his forehead.

“You…”

Mu Ack tilted his head and stabbed his index finger at my neck. In response, I hit his wrist with my sword.

Pak!

I then kicked him in his stomach, pushing him back.

“Kuak. You.”

Even if he was physically weak, he was still strong. It was like he could endure it all.

The way Mu Ack was looking at me changed.

He had refused to acknowledge me before I transformed into the Blood Demon, but now he seemed wary of me. The man bit his lip and said,

“This is dangerous, as expected. I should kill you right away for this to not drag on.”

As soon as he said that, intensely strong qi radiated from him. He was clearly trying to concentrate his qi to deal with me, the Blood Demon. It was so visible that it was terrifying.

It looked like he was trying his best. The man’s body that I saw through my golden eye was showing me that.

‘Can this be stopped?’

He seemed to be betting everything on that one thing.

And then…

Kwang!

The prison’s iron gate broke, and someone entered through it. It was none other than Jin Song-baek.

“As I thought.”

He said he would wait, but it seemed like he had noticed our battle. Mu Ack, who was trying to gather his qi, shouted at my father.

“You! The Blood Demon’s descendants have invaded your grounds! Are you going to leave him alone?”

He was trying to persuade my father to kill me.

I smiled in response without realizing it, and my father spoke to the frowning Mu Ack.

“He is my son.”

“What?”

Mu Ack, who was still trying to gather his qi, was at a loss for words. In the first place, the man fainted after the fight, so he didn’t listen to what had happened after.

And with him being flustered, we had a chance.

“Father!”

My father shared my thoughts as he moved towards Mu Ack. My father’s form split into several forms, and I moved toward him while using the Blood Breaking Technique.

“You people!”

Mu Ack, still trying to gather his qi, decided to forget about it and move.

Chachachack!

He stretched out his finger like a sword since he had infused qi into it and performed a technique that spread like wild waves. It was a blow from a Great Evil who decided to burn through all of his qi.

However, he was dealing with one of the Eight Great Warriors and me, who had just recently reached a higher level.

Kwakwak!

Techniques spread out in all directions and stained the walls with marks.

The prison looked as if it had burnt to the ground, and the surroundings began seeping smoke.

“Haa… Haa…”

Harsh breathing sounds filled the air.

Mu Ack could be seen leaning against the prison’s walls when the smoke dissipated. Mu Ack, whose right arm was now cut, also had countless holes through his chest and was breathing with difficulty.

I approached to question him before he stopped breathing, but he was clearly shocked.

“Y-your eye!”

Ah… I didn’t realize it, but it seemed like my eyepatch had been bumped off when we fought.

“Rather than that, who is the Blood leader….”

Before I could end my question.

“Why do you have the same eyes as his…”

‘The same eyes as his?’

Was he talking about No Name?

I approached him again and tried to ask, but his head had dropped. He had exhausted all of his qi. At that time, my father came behind me.

“Why did he say such a thing?”

“Phew.”

It was unintentional, but I think I should tell my father since the situation turned out like this.

“I hope you don’t misunderstand or get too shocked.”

“What do you mean by misunderstand?”

At that, I slowly turned my head.

Seeing my one golden eye, my father’s expression became stiff.

Um… he seems to be shocked again.
