Chapter 1927 - Return of The Mount Hua Sect

Chapter 1927. So a Day Like This Really Does Come. (2) “Wa... ter...” “Shall I prepare some tea for you?” “Tea or whatever, just water. Please...” Hyeon Jong’s voice had become completely hoarse. Hearing this, Hyeon Sang shook his head and called toward the door. “Bring a cup of cold water here.” “Yes, Grand Elder.” No sooner had he finished speaking than a disciple entered carrying a cup and a bottle of water. Cup or no cup, Hyeon Jong grabbed the neck of the bottle, beads of condensation still clinging to it, and immediately drank straight from it. “Hoo. I’m afraid someone might see you. Do try to preserve some dignity.” Without answering, Hyeon Jong emptied nearly half the bottle in one breath before finally exhaling. “My... my lips are so dry I can barely speak.” “Why are you making such a fuss?

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.

Chapter 1925 - Return of The Mount Hua Sect

Chapter 1925. What Is It That You Desire? (5) Yoon Jong’s eyes tightened with tension. Come to think of it, there was no real reason for him to be nervous. Hadn’t he seen Jo Geol rush at Cheong Myeong and get thoroughly beaten countless times already? And yet, he couldn’t easily shake off the tension rising within him. That was probably because this match was clearly different in nature from all the ones before. Jo Geol was strong. Incomparably stronger than he had been in the past. Even Yoon Jong could now do little more than exchange swords with him. If one had to name the person who had progressed the most through this war, it would undoubtedly be Jo Geol. And so, even as he felt tense, he found himself curious. ‘How close has Geol-ie gotten to that bastard Cheong Myeong now?’ Would this match once again do nothing more than confirm the vast gulf between them?
