Trash of the Count's Family

“Ugh!”

Namgung Tae Wi’s groan became louder.

His body jerked back.

As the Sword Saint's body was about to stagger as well since Namgung Tae Wi was holding his hands...

"Oh my, senior. You need to snap out of it.”

It was a tired yet oddly rushed voice.

“!”

The Sword Saint snapped back to his senses after feeling that pull.

He saw the pained Namgung Tae Wi as well as one other man.

“You are finally back to your senses?”

Sui Khan. He walked past the Sword Saint and approached Namgung Tae Wi.

As the Sword Saint subconsciously flinched and tried to reach his hand toward Sui Khan...

“It’s not good if you get in the way.”

The Sword Saint flinched after hearing the tired yet sharp voice.

Sui Khan grabbed one of Namgung Tae Wi's arms as that happened.

Pat.

The Sword Saint then felt a large hand patting his shoulder.

“Take one deep breath. That should be enough.”

The Fist King grabbed Namgung Tae Wi's other arm.

“Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!”

The Sword Saint heard Namgung Tae Wi scream like an animal.

This scream that sounded inhumane...

Was this really the child he knew?

As he was about to have that thought...

He took a breath.

“Ah.”

This was not subconscious but a conscious breath that he took.

The Sword Saint's gaze changed.

This clear aura that was filling his whole body...

It had the presence of fire, making him feel warm.

Furthermore, it was purer than the internal ki that the Sword Saint had been gathering for decades, clear enough to purify his body.

“…….”

He could see red smoke.

Furthermore, something gold was sparkling within that red smoke.

It was as if a golden milky way was sewn into the red night sky.

Was this really something that could be created in this world?

It felt as if he was in a place out of this world, a place where immortals were said to reside.

“...I was foolish.”

The Sword Saint started moving.

He did not release any internal ki.

However, he helped the Fist King and Sui Khan.

"Sword Saint. It’s effective.”

The Sword Saint bit down on his lips at the Fist King’s comment.

“Ahhhhhhhhhh---!”

Namgung Tae Wi's voice was slowly getting louder.

His black heart...

Red smoke was seeping into that grotesque thing.

Siiiiiiizzle-!

The red smoke was burning the black heart.

The black threads that had risen all over his body like veins were quickly decreasing.

“I didn't really think he would be purified!”

The Sword Saint focused his eyes after hearing Elder Ho comment in amazement.

The old man focused on his pupils that were now shaking for a different reason and looked at someone.

This red smoke with golden light...

The person who created it...

He was looking at where young master Kim was standing.

“!”

The Sword Saint flinched at that moment.

Young master Kim, who had been standing firm, staggered.

“Do I need to go support him?’

As he was about to move there in shock...

“You don’t need to help him.”

Sui Khan commented in a laughing voice.

“He already has a reliable guard next to him.”

Choi Han grabbed Cale’s shoulder.

- Human, no!

Raon used his two chubby front paws and head to support Cale’s back.

The two of them, who had remembered Cale staggering like this in Xiaolen while using the heater, had placed themselves near Cale from the beginning.

“Raon.”

Choi Han called out to Raon in a low voice.

“It's dead mana, isn't it?”

- That’s right!

The black thing covering Namgung Tae Wi’s body was definitely dead mana.

- However, it does not seem like pure dead mana.

"What does that mean?”
