Chapter 1971 - Return of The Mount Hua Sect

Chapter 1971. That’s Not How the Story Went. (1) A graceful sword strike, flowing like water, cleanly cleaved through the neck of a Demonic Cultist. It was a chillingly swift sword technique, yet its movements were so smooth and graceful that it even seemed slow. The enemies before her couldn’t properly resist at all. Seogeok! The Demonic Cultists whose necks had been half-cleaved clutched their throats and desperately coughed up mouthfuls of bloody foam. Though their necks had been split, they were still demonic person. Generally speaking, a sword strike that failed to sever the neck completely wouldn’t be enough to take their lives. Yet the demonic person cut by Yoo Iseol’s sword merely trembled while clutching their necks, as though denying this common understanding. Looking closely, the cause could be seen. The Demonic qi surging from their bodies couldn’t advance any farther around the wounds and merely writhed there. The Immortal qi clinging to Yoo Iseol’s sword w...

Chapter 1970 - Return of The Mount Hua Sect

Chapter 1970. He Was Really This Strong? (5) “Didn’t I tell you to move?!” “But, my lord! This, this…… if we leave all this baggage behind……!” Jwa Gohak ground his teeth. They were losing time. They needed to hurry even more, but the people weren’t moving as he wished they would. If they had simply collapsed from exhaustion, he could at least carry them on his back and move them. But when they insisted that they couldn’t abandon the carts they had dragged all the way here, all he could do was clench his fists. “Didn’t I tell you several times that I’ll somehow procure food for you?!” “But!” “I promise you! I’ll compensate you for what you leave behind!” Jwa Gohak shouted once more in desperation. But all that returned were eyes mixed with fear and distrust. “H-How are we supposed to believe that?” “……What?” An old man whose face was soaked in grime tightly gripped his granddaughter’s hand. Seeing the old man’s trembling hand and the child’s hollow eyes filled with...

Chapter 1969 - Return of The Mount Hua Sect

Chapter 1969. He Was Really This Strong? (4) A string of curses burst from Jo Geol’s mouth as he suffered a long gash beneath his eye. “Those damned bastards……!” “Calm down, you bastard!” Jo Geol, who had bitten down on his lips hard enough to tear them, twisted his sword as he watched the Demonic Cultists approaching. ‘They’re different.’ These men were incomparably stronger than the members of the Evil Tyrant Alliance. It was only natural. Demonic Cultists were fundamentally different from the Evil Tyrant Alliance, who had indiscriminately scraped together all sorts of people, without distinction. Moreover, even their very state of mind was different. Demonic Cultists had thrown everything away for the sake of their faith in the Heavenly Demon. Those who had filled their lives with fanaticism had endured prolonged hardships, becoming even more vicious and harboring an even more poisonous malice. So there was no choice but to say they were incomparable to those bas...
