Chapter 356: Rescue (4)
The two leaders’ conditions were truly dire.
The Blue Dragon Sect Leader held his sword with his left hand, his right arm gone, and long lacerations carved into his chest and abdomen. The Black Dragon Sect Leader bled profusely from wounds on his back, belly, and shoulders.
Examining the cave entrance revealed why the two had ended up like this.
“Guhh! Master!”
“Master! Hold on!”
“Ugh!”
All to protect their disciples.
“Master!”
“Master!”
Danun and Weizifeng tried to encourage the two, but.
“Stop it.”
“It’s fine, ease up.”
The two party leaders tried to dissuade them.
The reason was obvious.
‘…Damn it, I should have come sooner.’
Because there was no hope of survival.
It was the kind of wound where dying at any moment wouldn’t have been surprising. In the martial arts world without modern medicine, sustaining injuries of that severity meant the chances of recovery converged to zero.
Gulp.
Facing the death of the Moolryong Dang leader, a fiery rage surged within him.
He felt like he could only quell this rage by leaping down immediately and slaughtering every last Lion Clan bastard gathered there.
I clenched my teeth to suppress the boiling emotions.
Heh.
“Mujin… Come closer.”
The head of the Black Dragon Sect must have noticed my expression, for he gave a small smile and called out to me.
Unlike before, his voice carried a sense of effort.
It was a classic symptom of a last-ditch effort.
