Warrior Grandpa and Supreme Granddaughter

Episode 357: The Warrior of Destiny and the Copycat (2)

Cao Sun continued to move upward toward the highlands of Jade Dragon Snow Mountain.

But the speed was slowing down significantly.

This is because the climate began to change rapidly at a certain point.

“Go slowly baby. “From here on, I won’t be able to take a leap of faith.”

This was because the snowstorm was so severe and the slope was so steep that light air travel was not possible.

Yoo Seol, who had been ahead without hesitation, came back after a month and matched his stride.

“I’m fine?”

“You will know when you get older. No matter how much I do, my body aches when I climb a mountain. By the way, which side was that guy earlier?”

Wasn’t someone running around somewhere like a crazy person?

Yu Seol looked upwards and pointed somewhere with his finger.

“It disappeared between those canyons.”

A road between two snow-covered peaks.

Just as the granddaughter said, there were tiny footprints left in that direction.

“It looks like it’s not far away, so let’s go.”

The grandparents ran along the footprints, shoulder to shoulder.

The snow was so deep that it dug into our ankles, but no footprints were left where the two passed.

The light attack was so fast that it seemed as if two arrows were piercing the strong wind.

Ta-ta-tat-!

After a while, we move quickly.

Soon, I was able to see his appearance not far away.

“There it is!”

He must have been tired from running around and was leaning against a snow-covered tree, breathing heavily.

When I looked closely, I saw that there was no beggar in sight.

He was wearing torn clothes, his hair was a mess, and his lips were as dry as the earth in a terrible drought.

In addition, he must have been starving for several days, and even at a glance, his skin and bones looked bad.

“Is that a person or an animal?”

“Let’s go quickly, grandpa.”

Taaa-!

Joson, who jumped high, landed lightly in front of a middle-aged martial artist.

He looked at the two in turn with bleary eyes and continued to rub his eyes.

“…I can already see nothing. “It shouldn’t be like this.”

He mumbled something and then started hitting his own cheek.

slam-! slam-! slam-!

“You must come to your senses, Namgungseong! “The Archduke’s life is in your hands!”

Jo-son quietly watched him with pitiful eyes.

“Tsk tsk. “Do you think I’m crazy?”

“What should I do…”

At that moment, the man who called himself Namgungseong opened his eyes and looked surprised.

“I heard you! I heard you! Please tell me it’s not in vain! please!!”

The sight of him screaming seemed pitiful, so the grandson quickly answered.

“It’s not in vain.”

“Yes, no.”

Did you still have doubts?

Namgungseong slowly stretched out his trembling hand forward and touched Yujinsan’s cheek.

“Who are you guys?”

“In Gangho, they call Nobu Yanggoe. “If you understand, please take my hand away.”

“I am a ghost.”

positive and negative lumps. There is not a single martial artist in Gangho who does not know this nickname.

How could you not know? Those who are the most wary of political factions belonging to the Murim Alliance.

“Hmm yin yang twin monster!?”

At that moment, his pupils dilated little by little and his legs began to shake.

At first glance, it was a symptom just before fainting.

It seemed like he was very tired both mentally and physically. I can’t stand even a small surprise.

Yoo Seol quickly grabbed his shoulder and breathed some energy into him.

Then, a warm feeling enveloped his body, stabilizing his mind and body.

“Calm down. “I won’t hurt you.”

“Well, what’s going on here, Yin-Yang?”

“What’s going on? I came to pick Millennial New Year flowers. “Didn’t you come for the same purpose?”

After hesitating for a moment, Namgungseong spoke with tears in his eyes.

“The Millennium New Year flower is no longer important. Please help us.”

“Hurry up and tell me what’s going on. “Who are you?”

“I am the commander of the Cheongeomdae led by the Grand Duke of the Namgung family. “We are in trouble.”

The Namgung family is a very famous family in Murim.

There are so many masters and so much power that it can be compared to the Gudaemun faction, so it is often regarded as the best among the five generations.

How could such great people be lost in the mountains? It would have been a laughing matter if Gangho knew about it.

Moreover, if he were the grand duke of the Namgung family, he would be so strong that it wouldn’t be strange to say he was at the Hwagyeong level.

No matter how much I thought about it, something didn’t make sense.

That’s why Yu Jin-san asked with a face full of doubt.

“I know that everyone in the Namgung family’s Cheongeomdae is a top-notch expert. “What kind of distress do such people mean?”

“We were attacked. After that, they split up and ran away frantically, but they got lost in the process.”

“I don’t understand. “Who are you talking about being attacked?”

Namgungseong, who was looking back at his memories, muttered with a scared face.

“Actually, I don’t know. Because I couldn’t see anything because of the thick snow fog. But…”

“But?”

He paused for a moment and answered in a trembling voice.

“This guy was not something a person could deal with. “The limbs of my colleagues right next to me were torn apart without even knowing what was going on.”

Namgungseong used the word ‘existence’.

If so, this would mean that the beast may not be a person. Could it be that the legends of the tribesmen were true?

It was truly absurd.

And there was another question.

“If you were the grand duke of the Namgung family, your martial arts would be great, right? “Are you saying he got hit too?”

“I don’t know exactly either. “The Grand Duke gave the order to retreat, and after that, everyone was scattered.”

“hmm. “There definitely seems to be something there.”

At that time, Nangongseong asked carefully with a worried expression.

“Yanggoe Daehyeop. “Did you find anyone on your way here?”

“I’m sorry, but it wasn’t there. “Nearby tribesmen also said that no one came down from the snowy mountain.”

Nangongseong sighed deeply.

“More than a hundred people were together…”

“It’s more serious than I thought. But did you also come here after receiving a request?”

“The Namgung family does not accept requests. “We acted with independent information.”

There is no way that records and information about the Millennium Lunar New Year painting can only be found in the painting room.

There was no law preventing other martial forces from targeting it.

Anyway, I got all the information I needed from him.

“I understand. “We’ll go up and check for details.”

“Are you really going to go to the top and fight him?”

Yu Jin-san chuckled and gently tapped his shoulder.

“Didn’t I tell you? We are the yin and yang twin monsters. “The way down is over there, so don’t get lost and just go.”

He turned his back without hesitation.

And Yoo Seol, who was watching from the side, took something out of her pocket and placed it in Nam Gung Seong’s hand.

“Are you hungry? “Let’s go and eat this.”

It was a steamed bun provided by the tribesmen of the Napseo tribe.

Was he moved by the warmth of the yin-yang pair? Nam Gung-seong, clutching the steamed bun, had tears in his eyes.

Then he spoke in a more polite tone.

“Thank you, Eum-gae Dae-hyeop. “But can’t I follow along?”

“Us? why?”

“I want to find my comrades, but more than anything, I want to see that damn thing die with my own eyes.”

I understand how Namgungseong feels, but even if I go with him, it won’t help.

However, his eyes looked so earnest that I did not lose my footing.

“What should we do, grandpa?”

Jin-san Yu was already walking slowly with his back turned.

Then he spoke softly behind his back.

“You decide for yourself.”

Yu Seol thought for a moment, then nodded and said.

“great. Instead, the Millennium New Year flower is ours. “Okay?”

“Yes, thank you very much. “That is all I ask for.”

Cao Son continued towards the summit again with the new member, Nangongseong.

The altitude was so high that the distant ground scenery could be seen as a distant point.

After a while we walked in silence.

Yu Seol stretched out his right hand toward Nam Gung Seong and said.

“But if you’re not going to eat it, give it back.”

Even when I gave him his favorite snack, he wouldn’t even put it to his mouth.

He was just ‘tightly’ grasping the steamed bun with both hands and just watching.

“Oh no. I want to eat it too, but if I ever meet the Archduke, I will give it to him…”

It was truly incredible loyalty.

His honest character, which is not easily seen in Gangho these days, moved Yu Jin-san’s heart.

The man who was ahead slowed down and opened his mouth.

“If you meet the Archduke, I will share mine with you, so eat first.”

“Thank you!”

Only now did Nangongseong begin to eat the steamed bun he was holding in his hand.

How long have you been starving?

After the steamed buns shrunk to half their size, I felt regretful and began to eat them sparingly.

I have never seen anyone in the world eat steamed buns so deliciously.

Yu Seol, who was staring at him, immediately spoke with pitiful eyes.

“Eat slowly, because there are other snacks too. “Do you know how to eat beef jerky?”

“Really? “I eat that beef jerky really well!”

It seemed like it was going to chew up everything that was given to it.

Yu Seol rummaged around in her arms with a happy expression on her face.

After a while.

Suddenly, as if he had discovered something, he withdrew his hand, kicked the ground, and took a leap.

Taaa-!

“Where are you going baby?”

Yuseol flew ahead of the grandfather and landed lightly on a nearby hill.

“Grandpa, someone is dead here!”

It seemed like a body had been found.

Yujinsan and Namgungseong also quickly ran there.

A middle-aged man, his entire body frozen, was half buried in the snow.

Jinsan Yu, who was looking at him, turned his head behind his back and asked.

“Is this someone you know?”

At that moment, the piece of steamed bun that he could not swallow came out of Nangongseong’s mouth.

“Cheolchuya!”

Soon he knelt in front of the body and began to sob.

He must have been a close colleague.

But there was a long way to go to delay here.

When Yu Jin-san turned the body over, the cause of death was clearly revealed on the body’s back.

“What on earth happened to me?”

No matter how you look at it, there were no signs of being hit by a weapon.

It was as if my back had been hit with a sharp hook.

At that time, Yoo Seol closed one hand and waved it gently.

“It looks like these big claws have scratched my back.”

“hmm. Still, I think I was lucky enough to avoid a critical point and survive. But the bleeding couldn’t be helped.”

“Let’s go up quickly. “I guess the summit isn’t far away.”

“OK.”

Nam Gung-seong, who had become sullen, quietly followed behind the Yin-Yang twin monsters.

The higher we climbed, the stronger the snowstorm became and visibility became narrower.

Nevertheless, Yu Seol’s superhuman gaze kept discovering something.

“Ugh. “It’s terrible.”

“What do you mean?”

“it’s nothing.”

Each and every one of them looked like they had died horribly.

The head and limbs were torn off, and in severe corpses, the upper and lower body were divided.

That’s why I didn’t say anything to Nangongseong about them. Until now….

“See there? “Someone is sitting!”

Unlike the yin-yang twin monsters, Nangongseong could only be recognized after getting much closer.

An image of someone leaning against a rock amidst a blizzard.

“…Grand Duke?”

He must have been the Grand Duke of the Namgung family that he remembered.

For some reason, his left arm was gone and he looked haggard and out of breath.

And a sword was still tightly clutched in his remaining right hand.
