Chapter 23 The Runaway Lady and the Sorcerer’s Stone (1) It had been one year since Aiolia, the daughter of Duke Almadellcore, ran away from home. The soul of Heo Hwanhee, which had been placed inside Aiolia's body, gave herself the name ‘Juaie’ and was living in a single rented room on Repautte Street, a slum. She was in a situation where she had to worry about her next meal, but she was not in debt. Although her body ached and felt numb in various places, she had not developed any serious…-

Chapter 11 Return of the Sword “My name is Jin Somin. I may be lacking in many ways, but I am the young mistress of the Kongkong Sect.” ‘The young mistress of the Kongkong Sect.’ As expected of the Shadowless Divine Thief’s granddaughter, she held a fairly high position. And considering that her concealment technique was good enough that even Heoncheon had failed to detect her, she clearly had not risen to that position solely because of her bloodline. “All right, Miss…-

Chapter 10 Return of the Sword That night, the moment He Jung-man heard Chief Steward Lim Ho-pil’s report in his study, he unconsciously asked again. “Did Cheon really say that?” “Yes, Head of the Family.” “Hmm. The number one in Hangzhou…” He Jung-man rested his chin on his left hand and tapped the desk with the fingertips of his right. It was a habit he had whenever he was deep in thought. ‘So that was why. That’s why he suddenly said he wanted to…

Chapter 9 Return of the Sword Heoncheon’s provocation hit right at the pride of the martial artists—or rather, their pride as men. ‘How dare he call us cowards!’ ‘Does he think we have no pride at all?’ Among them, Jeong Chugang, who had the quickest temper, was already stepping forward with an indignant look. But before he could, a thick arm blocked his way. “Chugang, calm yourself.” “Brother Yeon…!” Ignoring Jeong Chugang’s displeased voice, Yeon Doseung…

Chapter 8 Return of the Sword “Young Master, are you perhaps planning to open an inn?” At Chief Steward Lim Ho-pil’s suspicious question, Heoncheon immediately shook his head. “No.” “Then what are all these?” Lim Ho-pil pointed toward the pile of whole chickens fried in oil that were stacked along one side of the kitchen. “Oh, those? They’re just failed experiments. Leave them there.” “Failed experiments?” For something he called a failure, they smelled…

Chapter 7 Return of the Sword “Phew. This should be enough, right?” Heoncheon smiled as he looked at the freshly completed book, the ink barely dry. It was the secret manual for the new cultivation method he had just finished. The new method was undoubtedly an excellent advanced martial art. As long as the practitioner had enough talent and put in the necessary effort, Heoncheon was confident they could reach at least the Peak Realm without much difficulty. ‘It’s changed so much…

Chapter 6 Return of the Sword “Are you really our Cheon?” A beautiful woman who looked no more than forty, despite being well past sixty, asked with an expression as though she had seen a ghost. Heoncheon lowered his head while lying flat on the floor. “Mother, your son has come to greet you. Please forgive this unfilial son.” “…….” Heoncheon’s mother, Madam Jo, slowly rose from her seat and approached him. He thought she might embrace him in an emotional reunion,…

Chapter 5 Return of the Sword The maids waiting outside the room were startled by the sudden barrage of blows coming from inside, sounding like a downpour. ‘What the hell is that sound?’ ‘What’s going on in there?’ They desperately wanted to check what was happening, but because of Heoncheon’s earlier order, all they could do was anxiously pace around outside. Just then, a group of people arrived. They were the martial artists of the Heo Estate, led by Im Ho-pil. “What…

Chapter 4 Return of the Sword “Pardon me……? Who did you say you were?” The young man stared blankly at Heoncheon's face. As far as he knew, the Estate Lord of the Heo family had long since passed sixty and was approaching seventy this year. If he was the son of such an old man, he should have been at least forty. Yet his skin was smooth and youthful, and he looked barely over twenty. And that was not the only thing that bothered him. “The son of this house was said to have…

Chapter 3 Return of the Sword “Alright, I’ve decided!” It was around midday. Heoncheon had spent the entire night lying awake after leaving Sanghwa Inn. Now he suddenly jumped to his feet and declared, “I’m going home first.” It was a decision he had reached after countless hours of thought. Of course, giving up the comfort and convenience of modern civilization was not as easy as simply saying it. But now that the Blood Demon Cult had been destroyed, there was no way for…
