Cheonghong Yi-hwa (靑紅二花).
This is the nickname for the two beautiful swordswomen, Im Mi-ryeong and Im Min, known in Hubei.
It’s only natural that one side looks less pretty when there are two beauties; however, Cheonghong Yi-hwa showcases their contrasting beauty, causing the number of martial artists coveting these two beauties to rise.
Even the Color Demon felt the same.
[Would that expressionless girl enjoy the sight of the drugged ? No way. It wouldn’t be bad to enjoy a raw reaction this rare!]
Im Mi-ryeong had no idea that the Color Demon was waiting for an opportunity. Eventually, it became just a matter of time before the isolated Im Mi-ryeong was kidnapped.
Keuh!
The Color Demon smirked sinisterly as he relished the sight of the tied-up Im Mi-ryeong glaring at him in indignation.
“Stop!!! Even if it’s Ho Pil, this is unacceptable! How can you hand over the woman of Tang Jung to a Color Demon? Absolutely not!”
Hwang Seong’s hands trembled as he gripped his book tightly. Tang Jung’s legitimate wife was Du Eung-hyang. However, Hwang Seong was not a man who believed there could only be one wife for Tang Jung.
He was already toying with ideas in his mind about making either the second wife or Cheonghong Yi-hwa the most beautiful in the land, while a disaster loomed with the threat of the Color Demon.
Hwang Seong even thought about sending a protest letter to Ho Pil using all means available if the dreaded scene he worried about turned a reality.
[Soja! Are you safe?!]
“Huh. Thank goodness!”
Hwang Seong let out a deep sigh of relief. In a moment of crisis, luckily, Im Mi-ryeong was rescued by the chasing Tang Jung just in the nick of time.
[Tang Jung, it’s because of me.]
Tang Jung couldn’t rescue Im Mi-ryeong safely. He threw himself into danger during a critical moment, but ended up getting poisoned by the Color Demon’s venom.
[It’s fine.]
[Hahaha! Tang Jung! This time it’s over! I’ve created a drug that will work on you too. If you don’t find the antidote, your veins will burst and you’ll die, so if you want to stay alive, hand over that girl and get lost! Who knows! Maybe you can save your life by assaulting a passing woman! Hahaha!]
[I have no thoughts of retreating.]
[What?!]
[It’s obvious that the woman in front of me will be shedding tears. I won’t even think of turning a blind eye to evil even if it costs me my life!]
[So-hyung! No!]
[You bastard! To the very end!]
“Indeed, Tang Jung! A true hero is someone like Tang Jung! The will to sacrifice one’s life like a blade of grass rather than abandon righteousness! But how do we overcome this situation?”
Hwang Seong couldn’t take his eyes off Tang Jung’s crisis.
[Tang, brother!]
Fortunately, they were able to escape the crisis thanks to the late arrival of Im Min and other martial artists.
[Tang Jung! Seeing your face will be over today. After enduring it all, you won’t be able to detox simply by holding a woman! Tonight, I’ll toast to your death!]
The Color Demon, confident that this was the end of their tiresome relationship, vanished while promising the next encounter with Cheonghong Yi-hwa.
——————–
Tang Jung’s condition from the poisonous drug was severe.
“Without an antidote, just holding a woman won’t work. What on earth should I do? No, could it be?”
There was ultimately only one way to solve the Color Demon‘s drug poisoning. And next to Tang Jung were now two women. Hwang Seong turned the page with anticipation.
[I’ll do it.]
[What, sister? What do you mean?]
[The Color Demon’s poison can be cured through copulation. A regular woman can’t detox, but if a virgin with yin energy has profound internal power, she can receive Tang Jung’s yang energy. So, I’m sure I can cure it.]
[If that’s the case, I’ll do it! It’s my fault that you’re in danger!]
[No. You were poisoned while trying to protect me. It’s right for me to do it.]
[Sister! Again, I apologize for earlier! But I absolutely won’t give up Tang, brother!]
Who would share Cheonghong Yi-hwa‘s bed with Tang Jung? The two women confronted each other firmly.
“Tang Jung, the sinful creature! Offering something more precious than life to a mere woman! To think that two sisters would compete to give their first to one man!!!”
The scene where the two women rushed to offer the protagonist the most precious thing to them was irresistibly smile-inducing for Hwang Seong.
[There’s no time. Follow me.]
[What, sister?]
[I’ll give you three seconds’ grace.]
Let’s settle it in a duel. Im Mi-ryeong’s logic was simple.
[You’ve always been so arrogant. You must be mistaken if you think I’ll always be beneath you.]
[You always took whatever you wanted cunningly. But this time, that won’t happen.]
Just because the two women were like sisters didn’t mean their relationship was entirely harmonious.
Each beauty possessed strengths that the other lacked, leading to hidden inferiorities and jealousy unbeknownst to them.
It was only upon entering a conflict over one man that their feelings began to erupt.
“Sisters, fighting over one man! How could Ho Pil, the author, come up with something like this! Really, really!! It’s so freaking amusing!!!”
The battle between the two beauties was intense. Starting out as a simple attempt to subdue each other using martial arts, they soon reached a point where they were about to draw weapons.
If things continued, they might shed blood over offering themselves to one man.
[There’s no need for us to fight as dear sisters. Ugh…….]
Ultimately, it was Tang Jung, who barely regained consciousness, that stopped the fight.
[Tang, brother!]
[Ugh!]
Tang Jung, grasping for breath, insisted he would rather die than let them fight over him.
In a life-or-death moment for someone they loved. Their beloved man was declaring he would die instead, so any further fighting was meaningless.
[Sister, let’s both sleep with Tang, brother.]
[Yeah. I can’t detox alone anyway.]
The two women made their decision.
[Tang, brother. Please blindfold your eyes.]
[Both of you, what is this?]
[We’re afraid that if you choose between us, we might not endure it. So please wear a blindfold and choose.]
The blue flower and the red flower were ready to be plucked beautifully for their beloved Tang Jung.
Tang Jung, after pondering, grasped the flowers tightly in his two hands while blindfolded.
The beginning of detox and rupture came with pain, pain led to ecstasy, ecstasy into pleasure, and pleasure culminated in reconciliation and love.
Tang Jung, turned into a beast by the aphrodisiac, couldn’t resist the flowers blooming between the rows.
“Cough, to think the beastly Tang Jung, who turned savage due to the aphrodisiac could receive this so abundantly. Let’s see. Tissue…….”
Hwang Seong couldn’t hold back either.
—–
[The Color Demon has appeared!]
Was it because the Color Demon was directly poisoned to eliminate his nemesis? Tang Jung, having completed his feat and detoxed, for some reason, remained unconscious for several days.
[He won’t be able to wake for a while.]
[Sister! Let’s chase him ourselves!]
In order to avoid increasing victims, Cheonghong Yi-hwa pursued the Color Demon together.
What the Color Demon feared was Tang Jung, not the two newly emerged swordswomen who had just stepped into the martial world.
[Heh heh heh! I can finally pluck these two flowers now!]
The Color Demon licked his lips as he called out to the two pursuing swordswomen.
[You can’t defeat us! We’re already the flowers of Tang Jung!]
[What do you mean? No way! Tang Jung! You’ve plucked another flower I aimed for!]
[Another one?]
[Just drinking Tang Jung’s essence wouldn’t be satisfying enough! After trampling and assaulting you two, I’ll be heading for his throat! I’m going to tear you limb from limb!]
The furious Color Demon was formidable. Cheonghong Yi-hwa fought desperately, but their combined skills were no match for the Color Demon, who had killed countless martial artists and assaulted women.
[W-wait!]
[Endure! If we fall, Tang Jung will be in danger!]
The two swordswomen put forth all their effort for love, but when faced with the Color Demon‘s wrath after he had lost all the women he targeted to Tang Jung, they were outmatched.
“It can’t end like this! I cannot bear to see the women who offered their first to Tang Jung fall into the hands of the Color Demon!”
If it continued like this, Cheonghong Yi-hwa would be assaulted by the Color Demon. In a desperate situation, Hwang Seong swallowed in tension and turned the page.
And then, a hidden knife rushed violently at the Color Demon.
[Just one hidden knife…… Cough! What is this?]
As he deflected one hidden knife, another pierced the Color Demon’s shoulder.
[Moonlight Blossom. This is Tang Family’s stealth techniques.]
[Tang Jung!]
[Yes. I have returned, Color Demon.]
“After all, a true hero appears when his woman is in crisis!”
Hwang Seong couldn’t conceal his excitement as he held up volume three of The Rise of the Tang Family and flipped through the pages.
[Tang Jung……! How could you!!! Even if your innate abilities are long gone, today I will take your head!]
To kill at a distance, the Poison Kill Space needed distance.
The Color Demon, stepping back, prepared to cut off Tang Jung’s breath. But this time was different.
As Tang Jung took a step forward, the scent of death grew closer.
[No way! The Poison Kill Space is moving? How?!]
[If you can handle poison well, it can become an elixir.]
Tang Jung proudly smiled at the Color Demon.
The Color Demon, who aimed to poison Tang Jung using a specially concocted aphrodisiac, found himself manipulated instead.
Tang Jung, channeling the immense yang energy produced by the aphrodisiac along with the two women’s yin energy, heightened his realm of power.
“Through sleeping with two women, my realm has increased! The Color Demon dug his own grave!”
For the enemy’s trap to empower him! Hwang Seong cheered.
[No, this is absurd! Did I accidentally help raise your realm?!]
Tang Jung took victorious steps toward the stunned Color Demon.
Just like a powerful enemy whose bite could end a life in one blow, he raised one hand and opened his mouth.
Hwang Seong could visualize the next line that Tang Jung would shout.
The words that would rally the members of the Tea and Book Club, the avid readers of The Rise of the Tang Family.
[Welcome! To my Poison Kill Space.]
“Welcome! To my Poison Kill Space! Waaaaah!”
“Welcome! To my Poison Kill Space! Uwoaaaaah!”
“Ha ha, looks like my little brother is also looking at the same thing.”
Hwang Seong smiled faintly at the voice he heard from beyond the room.
Now it’s the end. Tang Jung relentlessly pressured the Color Demon. Would the Color Demon’s evil deeds finally come to an end today?
Just as Tang Jung was attempting to sever the Color Demon‘s life thread.
[This time it’s truly the end… Ugh! What is this! Dark Qi?]
A black aura surged from the Color Demon.
[You make me unleash my demonic energy!]
[Color Demon! A member of the Demonic Cult!]
[Tang Jung! I will tear you apart next time!]
The Color Demon departed, looking back at his acknowledged rival as he fled.
——
Though the Color Demon escaped, Tang Jung had something to confess to the two women.
[I have something to say. I have women whom I hold dear in my heart.]
Tang Jung knelt before the two women who had given him their first. Yet he was unable to lift his head out of guilt.
The two women gazed at him, rendered speechless. If he had someone else, he might have to give them up. Yet, his statement felt somehow strange.
Not one woman, but women.
[To think, is there no room for the two of us in your heart?]
[Tang, brother! Why are you being so narrow-minded about becoming a man?]
[I-I am.]
[Tang, brother! You will defeat the Color Demon and become a great pillar in the martial arts world. And to establish that pillar, you will need the help of many women, right?]
“Exactly! A true hero comes to rely on the assistance of many women!”
In a world where able men can have multiple wives. There are men who remain unsatisfied with just one, but how could Tang Jung be a man content with one woman?
[Well.]
[Tang, brother. So, are you thinking of abandoning us?]
[I was wrong to think that way. I’m sorry.]
Under the persistent pressuring from the two women, Tang Jung ultimately surrendered.
[Tang, brother. This time, could you hold us while completely sober?]
[Tang, brother! Though I was out of sorts last time, today, please embrace me after fixing your attire.]
The three became lovers once more, sharing love and reconciliation in bed.
“Cough. To think there would be another bed scene. Ho Pil, the creator, must be very considerate.”
Hwang Seong loosened his waistband as he read, realizing that the two women’s stamina was not only in combat but also in the bedroom.
—-
[Our bodies need recuperation from the Color Demon‘s curse.]
[Tang, brother! We will inform the Martial Arts Alliance of the appearance of a Demonic Cult and wait for you.]
[Tang, brother! If a wedding is too burdensome, I can have a ceremony with my sister as well.]
[Right, sister! If the top beauty in Sichuan and the top courtesan in Hubei are to battle, we must unite!]
[Ha ha. I will surely kill the Color Demon and come for you two.]
“Again! Again! Why is Tang Jung breaking up with every woman he meets!”
While he understood the situation, he felt deeply disappointed. If they paused the pursuit of the Color Demon to wait for Cheonghong Yi-hwa to recover, what could go wrong?
Of course, if that happened, Hwang Seong would have missed the encounter with his favorites, Du Eung-hyang, and the story would have ended at volume one.
While Tang Jung’s integrity in upholding righteousness was charming, it left a lasting sense of regret.
Ultimately, Hwang Seong turned the page, leaving disappointment behind.
“Next volume preview?”
With news that the Color Demon was a member of the Demonic Cult, martial artists would be dispatched from the Martial Arts Alliance.
Amongst them was a renowned beauty and skilled female martial artist.
Tall, voluptuous, and beautiful. But her high status made her appear condescending.
Initially dismissing Tang Jung, the newly emerged hero, she gradually began to acknowledge his talents.
Then, caught in the scheme of the Color Demon, she became trapped in a mechanism that instructed, “Unless you copulate, you cannot escape.”
What will their choice be?
Hwang Seong, reading the next volume’s preview, could only exclaim in longing, the unquenchable thirst by uttering the same words as before.
“Next volumeeeee!”
