Chapter 199: The True Identity of Namhwang
A new visitor arrives at Baek Moo-jin’s doorstep—this time, it’s a heavyweight known as the Sword Immortal.
If he were merely a big shot, he wouldn’t have been so surprised.
The sword-wielding hermit was a free-roaming wanderer and a ronin.
He was also another legend, possessing unique martial arts passed down through a single lineage, proudly continuing the legacy of the White Path.
The Sword Sage had no family lineage and founded no martial arts sect.
It was common for those with no prior connection to the Sword Saint to become his disciples. He would simply take a like-minded junior under his wing for a year or two, observe their character, and then accept them as a disciple.
Thus, for the wandering swordsmen, the Sword Immortal was a dream within reach.
Whether they were the White Path Heavenly Masters or the Demon Path Heavenly Masters, the free-roaming swordsmen always remained consistent. Transcending factional divisions, they wandered, sometimes crushing the White Path, sometimes crushing the Demon Path.
Thus, they were sometimes idols to the wanderers and sometimes public enemies to all.
Yet there was never a time when the moniker ‘Sword Saint’ wasn’t renowned throughout the martial world.
The Sword Immortal of that era was a rather unique man.
Many had encountered the Sword Immortal, but few had ever heard him speak directly.
He was called the Silent Sword Immortal.
It wasn’t for any particular reason.
