Chapter 1947 - Return of The Mount Hua Sect

Chapter 1947. So It Was Still There. Within Me. (2) “What is the situation?” “It’s the worst it could be.” A small secluded chamber. It wasn’t called a secret chamber because it was locked away, but because no one would dare approach it without permission. Four men dressed in official robes, symbols of the highest ranks of government, occupied the room. “What do you mean by that? Are you saying they can’t be stopped? Just what are the Jinyiwei and the Imperial Army doing, that they can’t even handle a mere few hundred enemies?” [ Jinyiwei . 금의위 ( 錦衣衛 ). Literally “Embroidered Uniform Guard”. The Ming dynasty’s elite imperial military guard and secret police, directly subordinate to the emperor. Wow? Mount Hua novel set in the Ming Dynasty confirmed?!] The elderly high official’s voice burst forth in furious indignation, causing the middle-aged military officer clad in armor to knit his brows. “Please mind your words, Grand Secretary. The Imperial Army is not weak. As yo...

Chapter 1946 - Return of The Mount Hua Sect

Chapter 1946. So It Was Still There. Within Me. (1) Silence. Everything was silent. The Archbishop simply accepted that long silence that seemed as though it would stretch on forever.

Chapter 1945 - Return of The Mount Hua Sect

Chapter 1945. Just Like Back Then In The Past. (5) Hong Daegwang bit down hard on his lower lip. “….The bishop who appeared in Hangzhou was most likely with them?” “That’s right.” Cheong Myeong elaborated. “Even if it wasn’t that bastard, it doesn’t change anything. Wherever the Demonic Cult moves, there’s always a bishop. And I don’t think I need to explain what kind of monsters the Demonic Cult’s bishops are.” Everyone nodded. Whether they had experienced Hangzhou firsthand or had only heard of it through others, there wasn’t a single person present who didn’t know how horrifying the Demonic Calamity of Hangzhou had been. “Then we have to assume the Great Wall will be breached. Or perhaps it already has.” Im Sobyeong’s calm voice pierced everyone’s hearts like an awl. “Then, realistically speaking, the place where we’ll be able to intercept them is...” Letting the end of his sentence trail off for a moment, Im Sobyeong frowned slightly and turned toward Cheong M...
