How Dare You Mess With My Family? (2)

“Yin Monster…”

Upon seeing Yu Seol, the Clan Leader’s expression darkened.

In contrast, Yu Jinsan remained calm.

It was his granddaughter who had intruded without permission, but how could he blame her? She was confronting an opponent he himself could not handle.

“You arrived just in time. Quickly, take that guy down.”

Yu Seol nodded, slid her backpack off her shoulders, and handed it to her grandfather.

“Go back.”

He transformed into a carrier abruptly, but now wasn’t the time to discuss this.

Then, his eyes were drawn to the short spear attached diagonally to the bag.

“What about the Dragon Flower Spear? Do you want me to bring it for you?”

“I don’t need it.”

Her response was immediate.

Observing her confidence, it seemed unnecessary to worry.

Yu Jinsan stepped back and looked at the Clan Leader.

The distinct fist imprint was etched on his solar plexus.

The impact alone had inflicted such harm on him, even though it was the same technique Yu Jinsan had used.

He was still struggling to regain his composure, the shock lingering.

“You! Did you think you could escape after all this?! Consider it atonement for your sins from now on!”

The Clan Leader couldn’t spare a moment to entertain Yu Jinsan’s taunts. Yu Seol was already advancing towards him.

He hurled two more daggers as if to prevent her from getting closer.

Pat!

It appeared as though the approaching daggers had generated a whirlwind.

Yet Yu Seol remained unfazed, not even attempting to evade.

Swish!!

Subsequently, the two daggers pierced through her body one after the other.

However, there was no sound, and Yu Seol continued her advance.

It seemed as though the daggers passed through smoke.

“…?”

The onlookers were stunned by this sight. The disciples of the Flying Blade Clan were shocked, as if they had seen a ghost.

Only the Clan Leader and Yu Jinsan knew the reality.

It wasn’t that she didn’t avoid them; her movement was so fast that they couldn’t see her dodge.

“It’s impossible!”

Once again, five or six daggers flew from the floor into the hands of the Clan Leader.

As if he had nothing else on his mind, he immediately targeted Yu Seol.

Papat!

Sharp daggers flew one after another, slicing through the air.

Only at this moment did the Clan Leader notice the dimpled smile on Yu Seol’s face.

He couldn’t help but feel frightened. It seemed as though she was approaching him as if he were her prey.

“Grandpa, how many times should he be hit?”

The answer came after a short pause.

“He is a very bad person; even a hundred hits won’t be enough. Grandpa will finish it, so you just keep hitting him until he falls.”

“Okay.”

Yu Seol clenched her fists, and the Clan Leader stepped back, now with only one dagger left in his hand.

“Now, then.”

“If you do something bad, you deserve to get hit, right?”

A dazzling golden light enveloped Yu Seol’s body. The stolen martial arts of Shaolin were unleashed.

A radiant glow, emanating from her head, resembled a Buddha taking the form of a child.

The Clan Leader, and even the other members who had endured rigorous training, couldn’t help but be shocked.

“I-I did nothing to the Yin Yang Monsters…”

He halted his words and swung the weapon he held, as Yu Seol vanished before his eyes.

Pang!!

Yu Seol ducked beneath the path of the eerie energy.

In a split second, Yu Seol’s fist created dozens of illusions.

Though not entirely clear, it seemed like they were targeting his stomach at that moment.

Papapapapak! Kuak!

It all happened in one breath.

However, the number of punches thrown exceeded a hundred in that brief span.

Of course, to the disciples’ eyes, it appeared as if Yu Seol had briefly approached him and then stepped back.

And that was when…

“Ugh…”

The Clan Leader, eyes wide open, took a step back and collapsed.

Losing all his strength, he fell to his knees.

Thud!

He opened his mouth in pain, but no sound came out.

He might not be able to admit why he was defeated like this.

In the blink of an eye, his naked upper body was covered in fist marks, but the trauma wasn’t the issue. It was as if his organs had turned upside down, and blood wouldn’t stop flowing from his pores.

Yu Jinsan quickly ran up to him and delivered a slap.

Slap!

“You cheap bastard. This old man will show you your mistake now!”

“…?”

Yu Jinsan first glanced at his granddaughter.

“Good job, child. Guard the entrance so no one can get out.”

“Yes.”

Before he could respond, Yu Seol was already blocking the clan’s front gate.

Her movement was swift, like lightning.

First, Yu Jinsan took a quick look around the place.

Although he had defeated the man who attacked him, dozens of disciples were still shaking in fear.

“As a clan that declared neutrality, you persecuted weaker clans, absorbed them, and prepared for war. Did you not realize this day would come?!”

Shock was evident on their faces. It seemed they hadn’t expected Yu Jinsan to know so much.

At that moment, the eldest-looking person responded.

“W-we only did as we were told!”

“By whom!?”

This time, others spoke up.

“E-everything was planned by the Clan Leader.”

“We only followed his orders!”

He couldn’t believe they were giving up their Clan Leader so easily. It was shocking.

He had seen many things in life, but he had never witnessed anything like this.

The Clan Leader’s actions were so reprehensible that no one was taking his side.

Yu Jinsan, clicking his tongue, scolded them.

“You should have refused an unreasonable command. How does that justify a crime? I wonder if you can kneel down without hesitation!”

They knew it too. If they didn’t follow the words of the Yang Monster, they would die.

Even though they abandoned the Clan Leader, there was no one who would give up their life for the pride of the clan.

All the disciples knelt in one direction.

Ironically, it was towards the entrance where Yu Seol stood. It seemed they thought his granddaughter was superior to him.

Yu Jinsan sighed and shook his head.

There was nothing more for the frightened ones to do. Although he didn’t want to leave a single person alive, Yu Jinsan refrained from killing as much as possible in front of his granddaughter.

But the story was different for the Clan Leader. This man was a member of the Blue Dragon Troops, the enemy of the Yu family and the one who took down his cousin.

“It seems that even your subordinates don’t recognize you as the lord of the clan. Well, it wasn’t your place to begin with.”

“…?”

“I know that the Clan Leader mysteriously died 10 years ago. Wasn’t that your fault too?”

“That…”

His voice was finally coming out, but even moving his mouth seemed difficult.

“I don’t care what you or your troops are planning. I am going to come and kill you all anyway.”

“I don’t know why the Yin Yang Twin Monsters are hostile to us, but please stop it now.”

“Why should I listen to you?”

“I admit to my personal deviation. But… the Blue Dragon Troops exist for a good reason.”

This was a shocking statement.

Yu Jinsan, with emotions raging, slapped him on the cheek again.

Slap!

“Is mass murdering innocent families also for the greater good?”

This man didn’t realize that the Yang Monster was the head of the Yu family.

For years, many families had been exterminated to cover up their dirty deeds. It wasn’t just one or two.

“Someday… you will surely regret what you’ve done.”

It seemed unnecessary to speak further.

He wanted to inquire about the whereabouts of the other members, but it felt futile.

These individuals had undergone such rigorous training that they would never yield to torture or threats.

“Child, go and look around for a bit.“

Yu Seol turned her head at his soft whisper.

There was no need to reveal a harsh side to his granddaughter.

“Live your next life apologizing to those you’ve tormented.”

“Great Elder!”

Yu Kwang-un, hanging from a tree branch, called out quietly.

“What are you doing up there? Come down.”

Curious about what lay beyond the wall, he had hidden in a high spot to observe.

Upon descending, he clasped his hands together and bowed.

“Thank you for your efforts.”

“What efforts? Take this.”

Yu Jinsan tossed a bag he had brought from the clan.

Judging by its weight, it seemed to contain coins.

“What is this?”

“Well, it’s money. I’m not sure how much you were owed, but this should suffice.”

“Is it acceptable for me to take this?”

He must have feared potential repercussions.

“If you remain silent, how will they find out? Besides, there’s nothing to fear. The clan has agreed to close its gates for the next 10 years. If they break this vow and return, I will deal with them.”

Closing the gates meant the clan would suspend its activities and focus on training.

During this time, martial artists would be barred from joining the clan, and the clan would refrain from entering Kangho.

“Thank you, Great Elder. I wish my father were here to share this happiness with me…”

“Pung must be watching from somewhere. You should depart as well. The disciples must be concerned.”

“You’re leaving from here? Accompany me back to the clan for a meal.”

“Nothing positive will come from associating with us now. I’ll visit once everything is settled.”

“Great Elder…”

Although their reunion was brief, it was time to bid farewell.

Yu Seol clasped her hands together and said politely,

“Goodbye~”

Had Yu Kwang-un sensed Yu Seol’s strength? No casual words escaped his lips.

“Y-Yin Monster, take care as well.”

Yu Jinsan, on his way back to the Defeating Blade Clan, headed straight for Baek Gyu.

He leaped up joyfully upon hearing about the clan’s defeat.

“Hahaha! I knew you could do it. Did you manage it all by yourself?”

“Upon reflection, it seems so. Seol only captured one person.”

“I underestimated you! I apologize, Hyung.”

As Baek Gyu tried to rise, Yu Jinsan gestured for him to stay seated.

“No need to fret. I trust you’ve gathered intel on the others, right?”

“How did you know? Your intuition is uncanny!”

“Just by looking at your expression, I could tell. Now, hand it over.”

“You’ve only just arrived, and you’re already planning to return?”

“It’s not just one or two. We have a long way to go. We must act swiftly to eliminate them and expose the true enemy.”

Their ultimate goal was to apprehend the Murim Alliance Leader, dismantling their forces and rendering them powerless.

At that moment, Baek Gyu handed over a prepared letter.

“I suggest you postpone dealing with the ones we’ve identified. They are not ordinary individuals.”

“Individuals? You mean it’s not just one person.”

“There were five of them in one location. The issue is…”

Yu Jinsan, after reading the letter, was taken aback.
