Chapter Title: Rebirth of the Thunder
#1
Within the Peng Sect’s Thunder Courtyard, Peng Jin-hyeok now trained under Hyeon-do’s watchful gaze.
Crack—!
Lightning danced along his blade.
“Again.”
Jin-hyeok gritted his teeth and repeated the motion.
[Blue Lightning Art: Pulse Fang.]
His qi pulsed forward.
Sloppy.
Unstable.
But real.
For the first time, Jin-hyeok felt his saber respond.
“Good,” Hyeon-do said. “You’re channeling the lightning instead of forcing it.”
Jin-hyeok exhaled, drenched in sweat.
“This… really is your path, huh?”
“No. It’s ours.”
#2
Meanwhile—
The steward approached with a sealed envelope.
“A letter arrived. From the Southern Alliance.”
Hyeon-do opened it.
The message was brief.
> Come to Nanchang City.
> The Southern Conference convenes.
> Seats are few. One has your name.
He looked up.
“They’re finally taking us seriously.”
“Or they’re trying to keep you close.”
Hyeon-do nodded.
“Either way, I’m going.”
#3
That evening, Peng Jin-mu summoned the core elders.
He stood tall, exuding qi like never before.
“I’ve decided,” he said. “The Peng Sect will rise again.”
Cheers erupted.
He raised a hand.
“Not through bloodshed. But through *presence.* We will walk into the halls of power—and they will *see* us.”
The elders nodded.
This was no longer a forgotten third-rate sect.
This was the rebirth of the thunder.
