Synopsis:
After being given up on by his family because his dantian was destroyed, Soh Woonhwi was kidnapped by the Blood Cult and lived as a third-rate spy.
One day, he died while being used to find a legendary sword immortal’s secret records. However, Soh returned to the day he was kidnapped ten years ago and obtained a mysterious ability that allowed him to hear the voice of swords.
Why it should be translated:
I enjoyed reading the manhwa adaptation and all the available fan translated chapters of the novel before they got hit with the DMCA hammer. For a murim novel I thought the world building was really good with the sub plots and main storyline. The mc having served as a spy for a long time is cunning and smart to ensure his survival. Additionally I think that the pace of the mc's development with his martial prowess was pretty good since it wasn't super rushed and he consistently had challenging obstacles to overcome.
