      by Ember heart —  Chapter 86 Return of the Divine Sword Behind the busy markets and splendid pavilions of Hangzhou was a completely different world. The narrow alleys where even sunlight could barely reach were nothing like the prosperous streets. Even though it was daytime, the shadowy streets were packed with shabby huts. People dressed in rags crouched on the muddy, foul-smelling ground, their eyes filled with the weight of life. It was the same when Heo Cheon appeared at the end of the alley. The people…

      by Ember heart — Chapter 85   Return of the Divine Sword Early in the morning, Heo Cheon stood in the middle of his room and slowly opened his eyes. At that moment, the Baekya Sword, which had been burning pure white in his right hand, instantly lost its light. Its pure white blade returned to its original dull, dark appearance. Heo Cheon put the Baekya Sword back into its sheath and muttered with a satisfied expression, “It’s getting manageable now.” The previous day—or rather, after finishing…

      by Ember heart — Chapter 84   Return of the Supreme Sword ‘The Young Sect Leader of the Hao Sect.’ After Gongson Rang finished speaking, Heo Cheon saw that there was something unusual about her expression, and he became certain that his guess was correct. ‘They must have had a special relationship.’ Unless they had been extremely close, she would not miss him this deeply. And although he was not sure whether it was appropriate to think about such a thing at a time like this, the side profile of…

      by Ember heart — Chapter 83   Return of the Divine Sword “‘I’ll think about it,’ huh? Well, I suppose it would be difficult to make a decision right here and now. I understand.” “That’s part of it, too.” “Part of it? What do you mean?” At Gongsun Rang’s question, Heo Cheon realized his mistake and said, “Ah, this is bad. I misspoke. Just pretend you didn’t hear that.” “……” Gongsun Rang silently stared at Heo Cheon. Thanks to the veil covering her face, her…

      by Ember heart — Chapter 82 Return of the Divine Sword “Who are you, miss?” Heo Cheon asked calmly. Surprised by his composed reaction, the veiled woman spoke in a soft voice. “You are not as surprised as I expected. Surely, the owner of this room that you knew should have been someone else?” Heo Cheon replied as if it were nothing important. “I already guessed that someone other than the woman I met before was in charge of the Hangzhou branch.” “How?” “Because if it were that…

      by Ember heart — Chapter 81 Return of the Sword God “I was discussing the expansion of the tavern with the head of Geumwol Hall.” “Expansion? Why all of a sudden?” It had only recently started operating, and she was already talking about expanding it. In response to Heo Cheon's question, Go Un-hye said, “I thought that expanding the tavern would not only be a good opportunity to secure more funds, but also an excellent chance to increase our information-gathering…

      by Ember heart — Chapter 80   Return of the Supreme Sword God That evening, Jo Sa-heon, the master of the Jo Family, suddenly visited the Heo Family without giving them any notice. Heo Jung-man and Madam Jo were confused by his unexpected visit, but they first led him to the guest room. As soon as they sat facing each other, Jo Sa-heon immediately bowed his head. “Please forgive me for my rudeness all this time, brother-in-law.” “No, brother. Why are you suddenly acting like this?” Heo…

      by Ember heart —  Chapter 79   The Returning Divine Sword “What?” Jo Pil-heon was bewildered. It was not his nephew’s rude way of speaking informally to him that confused him, but the content of his words, which he simply could not understand. Why am I not afraid of the Heo Family’s influence? It was a question he had never even considered. It was that unfamiliar to him. When people step outside the way of thinking they are accustomed to, they naturally become dazed for a moment, as if their…

      by Ember heart — Chapter 78 “Hmm? Who might you be?” Han Yun-su looked puzzled when Heo Cheon suddenly appeared. Heo Cheon bowed politely to him. “It has been a long time, Teacher Han.” “Hmm?” Anyone could tell from Heo Cheon’s attitude that he knew Han Yun-su well, but Han Yun-su himself was only confused. As he was lost in thought, the face of a boy he had taught briefly a long time ago suddenly flashed through his mind. The moment that face overlapped with the man standing before him,…

      by Ember heart — Chapter 71   In the end, Suhyeon could not resist any further when faced with Park Heegyeom, who was clearly being forced to take on something he did not want to do. That did not mean he promised that he would stay with his sister, either. He merely pressed his lips together and stubbornly refused to give an answer. Eventually, Heegyeom pushed me into the room, saying that we had to get the government officials safely inside the house before it got any later, and Suhyeon ended up entering the…
