5 Swordsmen Assault

Hey, gold thief!" shouted Lee Gon from the top of the tree, causing the black-clad robbers to stop their journey and stare at Lee Gon.

"Who is it?" shouted one of the black-clad robbers.

Lee Gon immediately flew up and threw himself on the roof of the horse-drawn carriage, causing the robbers to make a lot of noise, and started taking out their swords from their scabbards.

"Who did you say I was? I am Lee Gon, a Jeonsa goljjagi lord of Ulleungdo Island. Still don't recognize me, you bunch of foolish men?"

The band of robbers began to snort in annoyance at Lee Gon's meaningless babble.

"No need to think too much. Attack him!"

The band of robbers who were Segye's troops immediately attacked Lee Gon. Lee Gon, who was very fast and agile, immediately overwhelmed them when they were about to attack him.

"So, this is all you have? What a stupid puppy!"

Lee Gon laughed mockingly, causing one of their big bosses to get out of the palanquin and stare at Lee Gon with his knife-sharp eyes.

"Hey, Lee Gon! Stop messing with my men!" he shouted angrily.

"You know me? Finally, someone knows me too!" exclaimed Lee Gon, who was busy blocking Segye's troops, who were trying to attack him.

"Of course I know you. You're the guardian of the Sacred Waterfall Valley, right?"

"Yes, and I'm here to stop your stupid actions."

Lee Gon flew straight at the big boss as he drew his sword right at his face. However, the big boss quickly stepped aside, making Lee Gon laugh again.

"Wow, you're good too. No wonder you guys are predicted to be the greatest Segye troops in the Joseon Dynasty. Apparently, your abilities are extraordinary!"

"Don't try to stop me, Lee Gon. Prepare to meet your death!" he shouted as he ran straight at Lee Gon and tried to attack him.

While Lee Gon was busy battling with the big boss of the Segye army, Bai Lu and Ling Fei took this golden opportunity to steal back some chests containing gold coins, as well as the silver that the Segye army was about to carry.

"Boss, someone stole our gold chest!!!" shouted one of Segye's men who accidentally saw Vai Lu and Ling Fei stealing some of their gold coins.

"What? Stop and kill him!"

Hearing their boss's orders, the Segye troops began to ambush Ling Fei as well as Bai Lu. As soon as they closed in on Ling Fei and Bai Lu, Kang Taeshin appeared to barge in and hit them with a single death blow.

Taeshin never attacks his enemies with any weapons. He always attacked his enemies with his bare hands. Because with just one punch, he could knock down his enemy quickly.

"Fei~ah, take this gold chest to a safe place. I'll help Kang Taeshin fight."

Upon hearing Bai Lu's order, Ling Fei nodded and carried the golden chests using the power of his eyes, until the chests flew up so fast.

As for Bai Lu, he tried to help Kang Taeshin by using his Hayeongsan sword that he summoned.

"You're not using your weapon?" asked Bai Lu as he fought and beat the Segye troops with his sword slashes.

"I have no weapons. My only weapons are my hands and my limbs."

"Are you sure you don't need to use your weapons? They are very strong, Taeshin~shii."

"I'm confident in my abilities, Yuram~shii."

"Then, someday I would like to fight with you."

"What for?" asked Taeshin confused.

"To test the power within you."

Taeshin smiled broadly. "I'm looking forward to it, Yuram."

Bai Lu and Kang Taeshin exchanged smiles. Bai Lu felt that Kang Taeshin was indeed very special. Whenever he encountered enemies, he never fought them with his weapons. His greatest strength was his physical strength. With just the strength of his two hands, it was enough to defeat them and protect himself from enemy attacks.

"How can you chat in this situation! Hey, help me attack them!" shouted Lee Gon who was getting overwhelmed.

"The scent of Jasmine, Asahi is here!" Kang Taeshin half shouted as he smelled the strong scent of Jasmine, wafting through his nose.

"Asahi is here?" asked Bai Lu who also inhaled and smelled a scent that was so strong in his nose, "yes, the scent of Jasmine flowers. That means, Asahi is here. Did she come to help us?"

"Yes, I'm coming to help!!!"

Asahi appeared from the top of the tree. He immediately helped to attack the Segye troops who were said to be very difficult to fight. With the speed of Kang Taeshin and Lee Gon, they both worked together to knock down their opponents.

"Yuram~ah, I need your blood!" shouted Lee Gon who immediately scratched Bai Lu's wrist to release drops of blood.

As soon as Bai Lu's blood dripped on his Immortal sword, he immediately slashed his enemy with one deadly slash, with the help of Taeshin who struck them with one powerful blow.

"I'm coming!" Ling Fei shouted and tried to attack his enemy using his sword of Light.

The sword began to emit a light that was so large and dazzling to the eyes. Bai Lu, who saw it, was not going to waste it. He immediately threw his sword into the air.

With a twist of his body, Bai Lu caught his sword again and threw the sword of

Hayeongsan towards the bright light, making a powerful explosion.

The final execution was of Asahi's god's pedestal lotus flower magic staff. He jumped towards Bai Lu's shoulder to make his staff turn into a God's mouth that opened wide, and sucked all his enemies into his huge mouth.

Ling Fei, Bai Lu, Kang Taeshin and Lee Gon who saw it were amazed and deeply fascinated by Asahi's ultimate weapon that they had never seen before.

"Incredible!"

Segye's army fell. Some of them disappeared and were carried into the huge mouth of the God possessed by Asahi. All that remained was the big boss of Segye's army, who looked so frightened when he saw 5 great warriors coming and surrounding his helpless body.

"Are you giving up?"

Bai Lu thrust his sword towards the big boss's face, as he looked at him with those terrifying demonic eyes.

"Yes, I surrender. Forgive me!"

The big boss looked furious and looked very frightened.

"What's your name?" asked Ling Fei as he roughly tugged at the big boss's collar.

"Yongjae, I'm Wonam's Yongjae from the Segye army," he replied stuttering in fear of being confronted by five warriors at once.

"Return the stolen gold to its rightful owner, or I'll kill you today if you don't!" threatened Lee Gon as he mercilessly stomped on Yongjae's chest.

"I'll do it. I will return my stolen goods to the people of Joseon."

"Take those chests near the Okue river. I kept them there. And, return your stolen goods to their owner right now," Ling Fei told him.

Yongjae nodded his head nervously. He immediately went half-running to the Okue River to retrieve his loot and return it to its rightful owner.

"Wait!" Taeshin yelled, causing Yongjae to stop in his tracks, "where are you taking the loot?"

Yongjae turned his body around and stared at Taeshin's face nervously, his body trembling with fear.

"To the Segye army headquarters."

"Where is it?" Taeshin asked back.

"On Jiri Mountain, near the Geum River border."

"Wait, Taeshin~shii. Aren't there some pretty famous temples near Jiri Mountain?" asked Ling Fei while looking at Taeshin's face.

"Yes, that's right. Hwaeomsa Temple, it's the biggest temple there and there was Aeshin's greatest attack during the Goryeo Dynasty."

"So, right? This all has to do with the Aeshin again. Everything we do, has to do with Aeshin. What exactly was she trying to do all this time?"

Ling Fei seemed to be thinking about something. So did the others. Apparently, there would be a mystery for them to solve. Why was it that every single thing they did and every enemy they encountered, always had to do with Aeshin?
