The two main characters have simillar personalities. They have that way of making fun of everyone and making them suffer both physically and psychologically. They're both pretty overpowered too.
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
has similar vibes, but different in a lot of ways, both highly recommend.
Return of the Mount Hua Sect's protagonist has a more clear goal than the other, but both really fun.
Both set in Murim and shows from the main character from a young age. So far both are pretty funny and have good action sequences.
Similarity: Same style of comedy. Young (ridiculously OP) MCs overthrow the system by training their seniors (a group of them). Both MCs are feared for being cruel and respected at the same time. Both MCs are sly, like foxes, especially with money.
The differences would be that while "Returning of the Blossoming Blade" focused the story on the relationship between MC (Chung Myung) and the Mount Hua sect, "Master of Lighning Knives" focused more on the happenings around MC (Bi Ryu-yeon) and his antics.

They both use lightning and their masters are quite OP, though stories aren't that similar in my opinion (one is comedy the other is a bit more brutal), but both are about martial arts and Murim world and MC's with lightning powers.
Both MC are orphans and are thought martial arts by a strong master. Both stories are very interesting if you like martial arts you should read it.

Both has really good MCs that are enjoyable to read. I think why it's a good recommendation because it contrasts each other in almost any element but you end up getting the same feel from each contrast. Heavenly demon mc is more serious and lightning degree mc is laid back but both are insanely interesting to read about. Heavenly demon mc has an ambition, a revenge from the beginning of the series but you see hints of him being able to live a better life when all the fighting is over. While lightning degree the mc has no ambition and goes out to find one instead but you see hints of him being connected to a lot of stuff that are important in that world.
I had been abroad to do medical volunteer work, when I was swept up in a civil war. I was killed by a rebel soldier, while taking a bullet for a patient. But when I finally woke up, I had become a child?!? And in front of me stood a destroyed carriage and a group of oddly dressed people, who were unconscious! As I hurry to perform first aid in an attempt to save even one person, I realize that this world is that of [The Supreme Demon King], a Murim novel I’ve enjoyed reading...

Both have young mcs with who are orphans without anything that are adopted by a master to become their disciple. The exchanges are really nice to read in this dynamic and you get to see them grow from childhood to adulation and the training that follows.

The tyrannic empress of hell got reincarnated into the body of a naïve and tragically murdered princess of the Yan Dynasty. An arrogant servant taking advantage of their position? Scumbags with ill intentions? The malicious empress? She will not spare any of these animals of the imperial palace! The only issue is that clingy regent, what will it take to shake him off?

Two really funny completely different masterpieces!
The stories are different, but main characters are quite interesting and stories are unique!

Both are really funny and MCs are quite OP and also they do teach others as their disciples.
MC of CAHS reminds me of OCD clean student who shares a room with MC of LD, Seven God Sword. They aren't the same, but that cold attitude towards others is there.
