Radiant Dragon’s Otherworldly Reincarnation

Vol 2 Chapter 12. Who Asked for Help? (1)

Blood Saber Sect.

As one of the sects that branched off from the Hegemon Blade Sect, its Sect Leader is the Blood Wave Saber Guest Ma Jae-ho, a disciple of the Heaven Breaking Martial Emperor.

Being a disciple of the World’s Best, the Heaven Breaking Martial Emperor, sounds amazing, but in fact, it wasn’t necessarily so.

Because the number of disciples formally accepted by the Heaven Breaking Martial Emperor alone exceeded 200.

No one knows why the Heaven Breaking Martial Emperor accepted so many disciples.

Just that numerous people caught the eye of the Heaven Breaking Martial Emperor, and each time, he cast ‘You, become my disciple.’

No human would refuse the World’s Best accepting them as a disciple, and so this many disciples were created.

And as the number of disciples grew, problems arose.

It didn’t matter when the Heaven Breaking Martial Emperor was alive and well.

But after the Heaven Breaking Martial Emperor met his death for unknown reasons, the disciples immediately turned from fellow disciples into competitors.

Furthermore, the ambiguous cause of the Heaven Breaking Martial Emperor’s death was sufficient to become the spark of conflict.

[You killed Master!]

[Stop spouting nonsense! Aren’t you the one who killed Master with a sneak attack?]

[How dare you… I’ll kill you!]

The disciples of the Heaven Breaking Martial Emperor pointed swords at each other and clashed, and thus the Hegemon Blade Sect immediately split into pieces.

Ma Jae-ho also split from the Hegemon Blade Sect at that time.

And gathering those who followed him, he created a sect called the Blood Saber Sect and was gradually growing his power in Gansu Province.

Just as he was increasing people and expanding his influence over the surrounding Unorthodox factions….

“Sect Leader. They say the Twin Dragon Gang has fallen.”

“The Twin Dragon Gang?”

At the completely unexpected news, Ma Jae-ho’s brow furrowed.

The Twin Dragon Gang wasn’t a very strong sect in terms of martial power, but it was a sect that sent quite substantial tributes.

Hearing that such a sect had suddenly fallen, Ma Jae-ho frowned and said.

“Who did this deed? Did the Kongtong Sect make a move?”

The one who answered Ma Jae-ho’s question was a scholar with a sickly impression.

He was a failed scholar in the past who couldn’t endure poverty and ended up joining the Unorthodox faction.

In fact, this is quite common in the Unorthodox faction.

Since most Unorthodox practitioners are illiterate people who can barely write their own names, administrative ability cannot be expected at all.

In such cases, they bring in failed scholars or scribes from merchant guilds using money or violence to handle paperwork and administrative duties.

And if they cooperate obediently, they also let them serve as strategists.

This scholar was such a figure.

He said.

“It is not the Kongtong Sect.”

“Then who is it?”

“They say a place called the Twin Dragon Sect pushed out the Twin Dragon Gang and took over the spot.”

“Twin Dragon Sect? The name is similar, perhaps….”

“Yes. It was the Orthodox sect that was originally there before being pushed out by the Twin Dragon Gang.”

“Haa, so they gritted their teeth and reclaimed their spot. Is that it?”

“It seems so.”

“Hmph, a tearful story indeed.”

Ma Jae-ho bared his teeth and spoke.

“Who was the leader of the Twin Dragon Gang?”

“It was Great Bear Twin Axes Kang Man.”

“What happened to that guy?”

“He lost his martial arts and became a complete cripple.”

“…Then, who was under him?”

“No one in particular. And it is said that all members of the Twin Dragon Gang had their dantians destroyed and the tendons of their limbs severed.”

“Hmph, for Orthodox bastards, they used quite a vicious hand.”

Destroying the dantian and severing the tendons of limbs.

For a martial artist, this is no different from a death sentence.

However, in the case of Orthodox sects, they rarely do such things unless there is a severe grudge.

Because they have to care about the gaze of those around them and their reputation.

But to dispose of an entire sect like this, not just one person, meant the opponent was not ordinary in their ruthlessness.

“Hmph, they are just Orthodox bastards anyway.”

As Ma Jae-ho spoke bluntly, the strategist said.

“In any case, it is not right to leave this matter unattended. The decrease in tribute is a problem, but more than that, if you don’t properly manage the sects under your umbrella, other forces might break away.”

“That is true.”

Ma Jae-ho thought for a moment and stood up from his seat. Then he said.

“Bring my saber. I will organize them myself!”

“Please calm down. It is not a matter for the Sect Leader to go personally.”

“You stupid fool!”

Ma Jae-ho shouted abruptly.

Then, a ringing sound wave vibrated the interior, and a porcelain vase decorating one side cracked open.

Just looking at this, one could tell he possessed quite profound internal energy.

The strategist, who had not learned martial arts, clutched his heart in pain for a moment.

And Ma Jae-ho shouted intimidatingly.

“Are you telling me to leave the guy who invaded my territory alone? This is exactly the time to make an example and teach a lesson of punishing one to warn a hundred.”

At Ma Jae-ho’s words, the strategist thought inwardly.

‘This ignorant guy picked up some fancy words from somewhere….’

But if he said this thought out loud, his head would fly off.

So, he chose his words carefully to avoid provoking the violent Sect Leader’s temper as much as possible.

“The Sect Leader’s words are absolutely correct. However….”

“However what?”

“The status is the problem. Isn’t the opponent too much of a nobody for the Sect Leader to move personally?”

“Mmm….”

Conflict arose on Ma Jae-ho’s face.

Listening to it, there seemed to be a point. And seizing that momentum, the strategist continued speaking.

“The sect called Twin Dragon Sect is a third-rate sect I’ve never even heard of. If the Sect Leader steps forward personally to deal with such a sect, it will blemish the reputation of our Blood Saber Sect.”

“Mmm….”

“Traditionally, one does not use a butcher’s knife to kill a chicken. How could we dirty the Sect Leader’s saber to catch such minnows?”

“Huhu…. Right. That is a valid point.”

At the strategist’s flattery-laced words, Ma Jae-ho seemed to relax a bit.

He flopped back into his seat and said.

“So, what do you think we should do? Anyway, those bastards touched our territory.”

“Of course, we cannot just leave them be. Send an official envoy to warn them and tell the Sect Leader to come personally to apologize.”

“Will he come obediently just because I tell him to?”

“Originally, the weight of words changes depending on who speaks them. Surely, how could a mere Sect Leader of a third-rate sect, whose name has never been heard, refuse when called by the Sect Leader, the successor of the Heaven Breaking Martial Emperor?”

“Hmmmm. That is true.”

The corners of Ma Jae-ho’s mouth hung from his ears and didn’t come down.

He liked the phrase ‘successor of the Heaven Breaking Martial Emperor’.

“When those guys come like that, scold them severely and increase the protection fee that the Twin Dragon Gang used to pay. They won’t dare to refuse.”

“Right, Mr. Jang is correct.”

Suddenly, he went from ‘you guy’ to ‘Mr. Jang’.

It was proof that he was very pleased.

“Then we will proceed with the matter that way.”

“Mm, do so.”

Feeling good, Ma Jae-ho readily gave permission.

Without knowing what consequences this would bring.

The peaceful Twin Dragon Sect.

“Ughhhh….”

“No. I can’t take anymore….”

“Kuaaaaaah!”

Okay. Honestly, it’s not peaceful.

Why? The reason lies with only one person.

“You punks. How much have you done to be whining already? Huh?”

Is peace even possible in this land where Patrick Schneider reigns?

Right now, the Twin Dragon Sect was giving numerous young men a rare experience of previewing hell while alive.

Look even now.

The young men performing the footwork instructed by Patrick while carrying huge cauldrons filled to the brim with water on their heads were dying.

They shouldn’t spill a single drop of water from the cauldron placed on their heads while doing the complex footwork, which was hard enough on its own.

If they spill?

Of course, start over from the beginning.

Everyone, due to collective responsibility.

The result….

‘Ju… Just kill me.’

‘Where is this? Who am I?’

‘Mom, I miss you.’

Their faces had become gaunt like skeletons as they tiredly performed the same footwork for over half a day.

“Excuse me, Bong-gong.”

“Hmm? Why is that, Sect Leader.”

“Isn’t the intensity of the training a bit too severe?”

“Mmm, does the Sect Leader think so too?”

“Yes. It is a bit….”

“The intensity of the training is severely comfortable, isn’t it?”

“…….”

“Oil is expensive, so I held back, but I should have used boiling oil instead of water. Right?”

“…….”

“You have to do at least that much to create the appropriate tension for training.”

Sect Leader Go Seok-hyeon was thankful every day for the fact that he was an elder who had aged recently.

And right then….

Bang bang bang!

Someone knocked loudly on the gates of hell, no, the Twin Dragon Sect.

“Who is it? Is it an applicant after a long time?”

Recently, after the number of disciples exceeded 150, the number of new applicants decreased significantly.

It seemed rumors had spread about what kind of training was conducted at the Twin Dragon Sect, reducing the number of applicants. However….

Kwa-a-a-ang!

It seems the guest who visited this time is not an applicant.

Seeing as they made a grand entrance by smashing the main gate.

“Why aren’t you coming out quickly? You country bumpkins!”

Those who broke the gate of the Twin Dragon Sect and entered were men wearing red martial arts uniforms and carrying large sabers on their backs.

They smashed the gate and strode inside without hesitation.

At their behavior, the trainees shrank back and hesitated without realizing it.

Seeing such trainees, the men said with arrogant smiles.

“Kukuku…. Cute bastards. Shivering in fear, you look just like chicks.”

At a glance, they were not people who came with good intentions.

At their appearance, Sect Leader Go Seok-hyeon stepped forward and said.

“Who are you gentlemen? For what purpose have you visited our sect?”

At Go Seok-hyeon’s polite words, the opponent spoke with a leisurely smile hanging on his lips.

“Are you the Sect Leader?”

“I am.”

“Hmmmm….”

The guy looked Go Seok-hyeon up and down and said.

“Hmph, Great Bear Twin Axes is finished too. To be defeated by such an unimpressive old man.”

“…Did you know Great Bear Twin Axes?”

“In a way. We are the Blood Saber… Kuweek!”

Crack!

Just as he was about to introduce himself.

Before that, someone’s splendid double flying kick landed squarely on his face.

The guy who took the kick flew far away and crashed into the wall.

Naturally, the one who made him like this was….

“You Unorthodox bastard, dare to set foot in the Great Twin Dragon Sect without fear? And even dare to speak rudely to the Sect Leader of the Great Twin Dragon Sect? Want to die? Huh? Do you want to die?”

“You… Who are you?”

Smash! Kwa-ang!

Another one flew backward and crashed into the wall. And Patrick said.

“You should say ‘Who might you be?’, you Unorthodox punk who doesn’t even know basic manners. Where do you get off? Huh? A Unorthodox nobody dares to say ‘You? You?’ to the Bong-gong of the Great Twin Dragon Sect? Am I your friend? Huh?”

He was truly a model Bong-gong overflowing with affection and pride for the Twin Dragon Sect. But before that….

“Bo, Bong-gong.”

“Why is that, Sect Leader?”

“They didn’t identify themselves as the Blood Saber Sect. If you do this….”

Sect Leader Go Seok-hyeon trailed off.

You shouldn’t do this.

It was a bit ambiguous to finish the sentence saying that.

Actually, although his actions were violent, there was no problem with Patrick’s behavior.

Because it is perfectly justified to beat up Unorthodox practitioners who kicked the gate of one’s sect and entered to pick a fight openly. But….

“Bong… Bong-gong. They said Blood Saber Sect, didn’t they?”

Mun Yul, who ran up behind him, said with a pale face.

“I heard it too. They said Blood Saber Sect.”

“Then why….”

“I beat them because they are Blood Saber Sect. You said they are Unorthodox, right?”

“…….”

“How dare Unorthodox bastards set foot in the Great Twin Dragon Sect? They deserve to be beaten to death for this. Don’t you agree?”

Wow, our Bong-gong has infinite pride in the Twin Dragon Sect.

Mun Yul also opened his mouth wide with the same expression as his master, Sect Leader Go Seok-hyeon.

And right then….

“Da… Dare to treat our Blood Saber Sect like this….”

Slap! Slap-slap-slap-slap-slap!

Patrick grabbed the collar and started slapping the opponent’s face soundly with his palm.

“Dare? Daaare? Where does an Unorthodox bastard dare to flap his reckless trap? Huh?”

“Keok. Wa… Wait…. Moment….”

“I ought to knock out all your upper and lower teeth and replant them swapped. Huh? Where? Dare? Huh? An Unorthodox? Huh?”

“Keok… Keok! Wa, wait… Keok!”

Wow, he really beats people well.

It was a scene that made those words come out naturally.

The Blood Saber Sect member grabbed by the collar by Patrick tried to resist somehow, but he couldn’t.

From the moment his collar was grabbed, no strength entered his body.

Just like a commoner who had never learned martial arts.

“Say it again. You bastard? Huh? Say it again!”

“I… I was wrong…. I…. I was wr….”

It was a scene of gruesome beating that one couldn’t bear to watch with open eyes.

* * *

A while later.

In the training ground of the Twin Dragon Sect, the Blood Saber Sect members wearing red martial arts uniforms were kneeling.

Their deeply bowed faces were swollen, and next to them, one person was lying on the ground breathing shallowly; this was the fate of the one who had been particularly defiant.

And Patrick said.

“Sect Leader, it seems the atmosphere is now conducive to conversation.”

“…This is?”

“Oho, when talking to Unorthodox bastards, it is standard to beat them up before starting.”

“…….”

“And this eye level is just right for conversation.”

“…….”

“Now, please have a conversation.”

Go Seok-hyeon felt seriously burdened by this situation, but he couldn’t not have the conversation he was told to have here.

He had to know the situation first, right?

“Kuhm…. So, for what reason did the Blood Saber Sect visit our sect?”

At Go Seok-hyeon’s words, the Blood Saber Sect members hesitated a little before carefully opening their mouths.

“We came to deliver the Sect Leader’s order…. No, to deliver a message.”

Towards the guy who hurriedly changed his words, Patrick lowered his raised hand and said.

“I’ll let it slide once.”

And the guy carefully took a letter from his bosom and delivered it to Go Seok-hyeon.

Go Seok-hyeon opened the letter and examined it, and the content was….

“Haha….”

“What does it say?”

“Would you like to see for yourself?”

Patrick took the letter and checked it. Then….

“The gist is…. telling the Sect Leader to come personally.”

“It seems so.”

“Come and explain the reason for touching the Twin Dragon Gang?”

“That is what is written.”

“Hahahahaha.”

Patrick laughed. And after laughing for a long time, he suddenly stopped laughing. Then….

“Have these bastards lost their minds?!”

The Blood Saber Sect members who visited the Twin Dragon Sect that day realized.

That a demon actually exists in this world.
