Chapter 1935 - Return of The Mount Hua Sect

Chapter 1935. Anyone Else Have Something to Say? (5) Just as Hyeon Jong unconsciously began to rise from his seat, Hyeon Sang firmly pressed a hand onto his shoulder. Then he shook his head resolutely. “You said you wouldn’t step in.” “....Mm.” Hyeon Jong let out a strained groan, like a man whose throat had gone dry. Yes, he had promised not to intervene. No matter what happened here, this once, he would leave Cheong Myeong to handle it. And yet the reason Hyeon Jong had nearly stood up was neither because he had forgotten that promise nor because he regarded the vow he had made with Cheong Myeong lightly. ‘Cheong Myeong-ah.’ Hyeon Jong clenched his fist tightly. ‘If things continue like this.... won’t you end up bearing all the infamy Mount Hua earns because of this.... all by yourself?’ Hyeon Jong reproached himself inwardly for failing to foresee this.

Chapter 1933 - Return of The Mount Hua Sect

Chapter 1933. Anyone Else Have Something to Say?

Of course, the number of chairs prepared had far exceeded the original estimate, reaching no less than seven hundred. Even so, that alone was not enough to call it remarkable. But once one considered the identities of those who would be sitting there, the matter became very different. “To think the sect leaders of the world’s sects would gather together in one place like this.” “Right? It’s a shame that the great major sects couldn’t participate, but that’s not really what makes this gathering important, is it?” “They weren’t exactly in a position to come, so it couldn’t be helped.” “That’s true.” Tang Sos...
