Chapter 239. Catching the Hidden Culprit (4)
Those who found the Twin-Shadow Vicious Demon Brigade became flustered even when they knew their true nature.
“Brothers!!! What are you thinking right now!!! No, I could just not know something like that! And do you not know I go alone when I go to meet women?”
“Huh......”
Because it was not easy to believe that the person who had been beside them until now was an enemy.
Е̌ṅum̆_a
“And besides! My answer was late, but I clearly said it. I only thought of it late because I had no interest...... How does that alone make me the culprit?”
The bond they had built with the original person had already transferred to the one who wore the same outer shell and acted the same way, making it impossible to easily think of him as a fake.

“Ask me another question instead! Does it make any sense to find the culprit with just one question?”
That was why, even while suspicion arose, they could not carry that suspicion to the end.
Because he might not be fake. Because they might have simply mistaken it for a moment.
Because they had to believe that...... or the bond they had held on to would shatter.
Ẃе b̈ñо̀v е l̊ Е ṅ ú m̈ а
That was why so many of the Murim Alliance’s higher-ranking units had no choice but to die.
Then what was our Sojeong Squad like?
We had suspected one another even before the Twin-Shadow Vicious Demon Brigade infiltrated us, and if even the slightest irritating point appeared, we threw blades first and thought later.
That way, even if one died unfairly, at least one would not die to a hidden scheme.

Srrrng.
The Black Dragon Sword was drawn, and the Five Dogs of Xiping...... no, now the Three Dogs of Xiping turned to look at me.

“Wait a moment...... It is not certain yet......”
I could understand the man’s feelings.
It was not as though he could suspect a younger brother he had shared hardships with for decades as easily as flipping his hand.
But the cunning Twin-Shadow Vicious Demon Brigade did not miss gaps like that.
They toyed with the basic trust that every human possessed.
“I told you to wait!!!”

When I approached, the second brother raised his hand and blocked me.
It must not be easy to believe.
But this side had evidence full of certainty.
I immediately unfolded Lotus and threw the second brother toward Blood Battle.
“That, that damned bastard is doing it again!”
THWACK! BOOM!
Ӗn̈u mā .ĩ d̈
Blood Battle tried to knock the second brother down in one stroke, but after spinning once in midair, the second brother kicked off Blood Battle’s fist and instead shot toward me.
“This crazy bastard......! Youngest!”
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
“Yes, brother!”
Even those who had built such notoriety that their epithet contained the word Dog had a bond between them that was practically tenacious.
That was why the Twin-Shadow Vicious Demon Brigade could only become an object of hatred to everyone, transcending white and black alike.
The two swung their sabers at the same time.
Ӗ ňu̇ḿã
Saber Qi flew in as if to split my head and waist at once.
At the same time as I unfolded the Iron Bridge method, I pushed the Taeul Eighty-Thousand Divine Steps to the extreme and passed through the gap between the Saber Qi by a hair’s breadth, rushing toward the member of the Twin-Shadow Vicious Demon Brigade.
“You lunatic bastard......!”
Flustered by my mysterious movements, the fourth brother desperately scattered his saber.

His Saber Art was identical to that of the other Five Dogs of Xiping.
CLANG, CLANG, CLANG, CLANG, CLANG.

Just as I was about to thrust my sword in and take the neck of the man who had barely blocked the Great Heaven Sword Art.
Three lines of Saber Qi flew in from behind, and I had to urgently rotate my body and block them.
BOOM, BOOM, BOOM!
Before the Saber Qi had even been completely dispersed, I turned my body and unleashed the Ten Thousand Transformations Invincible Fist on the fourth brother.
Dozens of Fist Forms rushed toward his entire body, and he floated up before flying over thirty feet away and slamming into the wall.
KABOOM.

“Keuk!”
The instant he collapsed to the floor, the fourth brother sprang back up and gripped his saber again.
His body trembled as he raised his voice.
“Brothers!! Do you still not know?! That bastard intends to kill us one by one like this!”
His desperate expression and voice, his intermittently trembling lips, and even his eyes full of fear.
Could the brothers who had been with him for decades truly turn away after seeing him like this?
Е ǹ.ŭm а
Even I would have thought again about whether this bastard might actually be wronged.
‘If not for the Red Phoenix Bracelet.’

I did not know how it happened, but only when I stood before this bastard did the Red Phoenix Bracelet absorb an amount of Internal Qi as tiny as a drop of dew.
From behind, Saber Qi filled with killing intent began pouring down.
“They have given up thinking.”
It was truly a strange sight.

Disciples of Orthodox Path sects often showed this kind of reaction.
Even if the Inspection Pavilion came out, examined everything thoroughly, and the Execution Pavilion finished its investigation and concluded that it was a hidden scheme, once they heard the desperate cry of a martial brother, they denied all the evidence.
They would say that it was surely a false accusation with some political motive......
That there was absolutely no way their martial brother was part of a hidden scheme......

But to think Black Path people would act the same as Orthodox Path people.
‘Is this why the Demonic Cult ruled all under heaven?’
Еňũm̄ а
These bastards made us go mad.
They made us lose our humanity.
They destroyed our common sense and morals.
That was why I absolutely could not let this bastard who inherited the blood of the damned Heavenly Demon go.
While pushing the Minor Heaven Sword Art to its limit and responding to the Saber Qi, I blocked the front of the fourth brother so he could not move carelessly.
The moment I tried to pressure the fourth brother.

The three men of the Five Dogs of Xiping formed a Combined Attack Formation and simultaneously stabbed toward six Vital Acupoints.
‘I will die!’
Their individual skills were not that impressive, but the moment they coordinated with each other, I felt an enormous threat.
I quickly rolled my body twice in midair and avoided the joint attack, but I could not completely neutralize the assault.
Riiip.
Drip, drip.
We bnoṽ е l̃ Е ňùm̊ а̇
Long wounds appeared on my forearm and thigh, and blood dripped through them.
The three men approached the fourth brother, met eyes with him one by one, then nodded and formed a Combined Attack Formation.

I warned them as they moved in perfect order.
“I understand that you want to believe your brother. But...... I want to say that this is not a good choice. Right now, you are protecting the one who killed your Sect Leader.”
I tore a piece of cloth, roughly wrapped the wound, and gripped the Black Dragon Sword again.
The second brother of the Five Dogs of Xiping, whose face had gone red, clenched his teeth.
W̊ĕ b̂n̊о̌ v e l̀ E n̄ ü ṁа
“We can investigate that ourselves.”
“So...... I am telling you that you cannot.”
“Even if he is part of a hidden scheme, we can handle him well enough!”
No matter how harshly trained someone was, they could not easily doubt and kill someone wearing the face of their brother.
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
The reason they could not easily cast out the Twin-Shadow Vicious Demon Brigade might be because, even if it was only the outer shell, they still wished that their brother or sister had not died.
Because if the being beside them was revealed as fake, that was no different from being told that the real one was already dead.

When even absolute masters were struck down by hidden agents wearing the faces of their grandsons and granddaughters, the level of martial arts meant nothing.
The only way to escape this trap was......
Malicious venom.
“That is why you bastards were beaten by the Sojeong Squad.”
Only a beast could tear into a Demonic Practitioner.
I poured out the Taeul Yang Palm, a patchwork martial art of the Taeul Sect.
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
BOOM, BOOM, BOOM, BOOM, BOOM, BOOM!
In my previous life, its power had been poor compared to the inner arts required, so I had not used it often. But when one had four Cycles of inner arts, even that matter of efficiency seemed to lose meaning.
Scorching heat spread in every direction and made the Four Dogs of Xiping’s breathing stop for an instant.
At the same time, I unfolded the recently learned Beautiful Trickery Divine Art to obstruct their vision and thrust the Minor Heaven Sword Art straight in.
SWISSSH--
The Five Dogs of Xiping swung their sabers to knock away the Black Dragon Sword that shot toward them like an arrow, but I was slightly faster.

Slice.
A deep wound appeared across the chest of the third brother, who stood in front, and he collapsed where he stood.

After retrieving my sword, I prepared to fire it out again, and the Five Dogs of Xiping immediately took defensive stances.
I unfolded the Great Heaven Sword Art so they could not easily form their ranks, throwing their vision into confusion.
Shrrr, shrrr, shrrr, shrrr.
When dozens of Sword Forms flew toward their necks, Vital Acupoints, eyes, and other points in an instant.
Wеḃ nŏ v̈еl Е n̈ u m ӓ
They swung their sabers like mad, but most of the shapes were Illusion Swords.
I then thrust in the Minor Heaven Sword Art to deepen the confusion even further.
SWISSSSH--
The Minor Heaven Sword Art, carrying even more qi than before, shot out like a single ray of light.

“Damn it......!”
“Keuk......”

The moment the second brother and the youngest dodged to either side, seemingly deciding they could not withstand it.
I poured the Ten Thousand Transformations Invincible Fist onto the culprit.
THUD, THUD, THUD, THUD, THUD, THUD, THUD.
KABOOM.
Before he realized it, the fourth brother, struck by the fists, was driven into a corner.
I extended the Black Dragon Sword toward him.

Shrrr, shrrr, shrrr.
Like the ribs of a metal fan spreading open, illusions of Illusion Swords and Real Swords filled every direction, and the fourth brother’s body trembled.
A moment later, perhaps deciding that it could no longer continue, he kicked off the ground and floated into the air.
But you see. I had no intention of letting him go easily either.
“Where do you think you are going!”
Ping-
Е.n̆_ú.m̂а̂ . ĭ d̀
With a sound so faint it was barely audible, the Flying Dragon Claw flew out and wrapped around his ankle. Using the power of Snowflower, I slammed him into the floor.
KABOOM, KABOOM.

“Keuk......”
The fourth brother curled up and groaned, as if the pain was tremendous.
I finally stamped down with a stomping step and tried to strike down his head in one stroke.
CLANG!
Е ṅŭm̌а
Screeeeech.
The Black Dragon Sword was blocked by a Great Saber, and the two weapons scraped against each other, spreading an unpleasant sound.
“I warned you to stop......!”
The second brother shouted, with red traces of blood not yet dry at the corner of his mouth, perhaps because he had coughed blood.

I put even more strength into the Black Dragon Sword and said,
“That bastard is the culprit.”

“The fourth brother used his own martial arts even in an urgent situation. In addition, just as he said...... he was late, but he clearly did answer.”
I looked at him and sneered.
“Seeing you defend your enemy, it seems this time you want to die.”
The second brother’s hand holding the Great Saber began trembling.
“Keuk...... In any case, stop! This is my final warning.”
CLANG!

In the end, we were each pushed back three steps by the other’s force, and the third brother and the youngest once again stood around the second brother as if guarding him.
The second brother stared straight ahead and asked the fourth brother,
“Fourth.”
“Yes, brother.”
“Let me ask one thing. What do I do whenever I have time?”
The fourth brother raised his voice as though wronged.

“Fishing, is it not! Fishing! You fish even when you have no bait, and even when you have no hook! Your martial arts are also connected to the enlightenment you gained from that!”
“Then who was the youngest’s first love?”

“Was it not Sun-i from the neighboring village? After she became a concubine of a noble house, that bastard cursed the world and became part of the Black Path.”
Before he knew it, the second brother was looking at the fourth brother with complex eyes.
“Then what wrong has the third brother committed recently?”
“He stole your Money Pouch, second brother.”
W ёḃ n ô ṽ eľ E n̈ ǔ m̄а
“......What?”
As if he had not expected that, the second brother touched his own Money Pouch and looked at the third brother, and the third brother nodded as though admitting it.
“......Look at this! Anyone can see he is my younger brother, so what is there to suspect......”
Yes, he must seem real.

No, that man believed that the fourth brother was the “real fourth brother.”
That was a natural emotion for any human, regardless of white or black.

The reason we survived was not simply because we could easily make vulgar jokes.
The more precise reason.
“Do you still not know? When three people carried out a joint attack, you clearly overwhelmed me. So why were you pushed back when the four of you unfolded a Combined Attack Formation?”
“......”
......Was that we had no humanity.
Because we had already changed into something closer to beasts, we could survive in that hell.
Baca cerita ini hanya di situs resmi Enuma.id!
Was it not contradictory?
To think one had to abandon humanity in order to live as a human instead.
Could a human who had abandoned humanity truly be called human?
As the man turned his head, his eyes met mine.
“What...... are you doing right now?”
The man saw the stance I was taking and tilted his head.
Е̌n ŭm̌ а .і̊ d̂
“Catching the culprit.”
And with those words, I executed the First Form of the Three Forms of the White Moon Governing Heaven, “Extreme Swiftness.”

Swift Movement.
The sound of air being torn apart rang through the room, and all the wooden chairs and tables inside fell helplessly.
And the Sword Qi that shot out in the blink of an eye had already severed the fourth brother’s neck before people could even perceive it.
SPURT.
W̆.е bn ov̆ еl _Е̊ n ü m а
The fourth brother’s hollow voice rang out as he fumbled at his own neck.
“T-this is not right...... This is not right......”
THUD.
As the fourth brother’s head fell, blood surged upward like a fountain.

The three people who saw their brother die before their eyes looked at me with blank eyes, as though they had lost their minds.
“W-what are you doing...... What are you doing? My, my brother...... My brother......”
Еnû mа
The second brother, drenched in his younger brother’s blood, stared at me with eyes full of disbelief.
It was not only the Five Dogs of Xiping.
Every member of the Blood Sword Sect, as if losing their reason at the sight of blood, began rushing at me.
“Uaaaaaaaah! Kill him!”
“Kill him!”
“How dare you! Our Blood Sword Sect......!!”

After the Blood Sword Sect members attacked wildly, the Five Dogs of Xiping, who had just lost another brother, charged toward me with a bitterly cold aura.
Blood Battle, who had been watching from the side, finally moved.
“......You crazy bastard!”
Greatly alarmed, he joined the melee, and Gun Yu-hyeon also joined in, knocking down martial artists with his fluttering long robe.
“Young Master Jin! We must run!”
Despite Gun Yu-hyeon’s urgent cry, I pushed even deeper among the bastards.

Stepping with the Taeul Eighty-Thousand Divine Steps at its peak, I took their rear.
Perhaps they knew what intention I had in approaching, because the Black Path people surrounding me desperately swung their sabers at me.

But I had something else I needed in the first place.
I quickly picked up the fourth brother’s severed head and returned to my original position.
The Three Dogs of Xiping saw the head in my hand, and their eyes flared open as if in convulsion.
The other Blood Sword Sect members were also grinding their teeth as though they would bite me apart at any moment.

“Take your hand off the fourth brother right now!”
“Black Flame Dragon! If you humiliate us any further, we will tear you to death!”
Without delay, I lifted the fourth brother’s severed head and tore at the skin of its face.
Crack, crack, crack.

The skin that should not have come off peeled away easily.
A moment later, imagining a horrific sight, everyone turned their heads.

But the scene they imagined did not appear.
Through the silence that had somehow settled, a bewildered voice rang out.
“A, Human-Skin Mask?”
Everyone’s gaze gathered on the things in my hands.
The Human-Skin Mask peeled from the fourth brother’s face.
And......

The face of a man they had never seen before, who had been pretending to be the fourth brother until now.
The people of the Blood Sword Sect forgot that they had been engaged in a fierce fight only moments ago and lost themselves staring at the Human-Skin Mask and the man’s face.
I said to them,
“This is what you risked your lives to protect.”
The Three Dogs of Xiping dropped their weapons to the floor with a thud.
After learning the truth, the reaction of the Orthodox Path and the Black Path was no different.
