Chapter 1928. So a Day Like This Really Does Come. (3) “B-Branch Leader!” “Hm?” “It’s an emergency! M-Mount Hua has requested that invitations be sent out!” The Branch Leader of the Beggar Union’s Huayin Branch, Gwan Cheol, who had been promoted to Branch Leader after Hong Daegwang, clicked his tongue briefly. [Gwan Cheol. 관철(管喆).] “And what’s so urgent about that? Just do it. Send them out and be done with it.” “No, it’s...” “Didn’t you hear the order? Anything involving Mount Hua gets our full cooperation, even if it bankrupts the branch!” “That’s not the problem...” “Good grief. Why are you talking so much? Just send them!” No one understood Gwan Cheol’s position better than Gwan Cheol himself.

Swallowing dryly, he reached out with a trembling hand and picked up the sword lying before him. “T-This is real?” Carefully gripping the antique scabbard of the treasured sword, he drew it partway. A blade of deep violet revealed itself. Baek Cheon’s lips parted slightly, as though his breath had been stolen away. “This is that Violet Lightning Divine Sword, really?” [Violet Lightning Divine Sword. Jajeon Singeom . 자전신검(紫電神劍). Ja (紫) = purple/violet, jeon (電) = lightning, sin (神) = divine, geom (劍) = sword.] “Seems so.” “The personal weapon of the Violet Lightning Sword Immortal, the greatest martial artist under heaven three hundred years ago?” [Violet Lightning Sword Immortal.
