Chapter 1941 - Return of The Mount Hua Sect

Chapter 1941. Just Like Back Then In The Past. (1) Bang! As the door was thrown open with force, the lamplight illuminating the room wavered precariously. Those seated with grave expressions all turned their eyes toward the entrance at once. Cheong Myeong strode into the room with a hardened expression. “What’s the situation?” “Sit down first.” Cheong Myeong cast a glance at Hong Daegwang. He soon withdrew his gaze and took a seat opposite Hong Daegwang. Five Swords, who had followed him in, also sat down. A heavy atmosphere hung over everyone’s face. “What do you mean, the Demonic Cult?” The moment he had barely settled into his seat, Baek Cheon turned toward Hyeon Jong and asked.

Chapter 1939 - Return of The Mount Hua Sect

Chapter 1939. There’s No Need to Understand. (4) The meeting that followed did not last very long. It could hardly have gone otherwise. For a meeting to drag on, there had to be arguments. But in an atmosphere where no one besides Un Am could bring themselves to speak, all that remained was one-sided communication. As a result, the sect leaders gathered at Mount Hua agreed, for the efficient and effective restoration of the martial world, to establish a communication network and command structure centered around Mount Hua. There would still need to be further discussion regarding the practical details, but those would gradually be put in place. Provided, of course, that the countless talented minds under Heaven were not simply eating and loafing around.
