Chapter 1933 - Return of The Mount Hua Sect

Chapter 1933. Anyone Else Have Something to Say? (3) “Quite a spectacle.” “It really is.” The Five Swords let out admiring exclamations as they looked at the seats arranged around the central training ground. In truth, it was difficult to call the sight itself particularly grand. It was merely a large training ground with several hundred chairs arranged around it. Of course, the number of chairs prepared had far exceeded the original estimate, reaching no less than seven hundred. Even so, that alone was not enough to call it remarkable. But once one considered the identities of those who would be sitting there, the matter became very different. “To think the sect leaders of the world’s sects would gather together in one place like this.” “Right? It’s a shame that the great major sects couldn’t participate, but that’s not really what makes this gathering important, is it?” “They weren’t exactly in a position to come, so it couldn’t be helped.” “That’s true.” Tang Sos...

What do you think you’re doing?” “Ah, um... sorry.” “Isn’t he the Righteous Sword? The Righteous Sword! It isn’t righteous to tease such a righteous person!
