Chapter: 1613
He had fought many bloody battles before, but today felt especially hard. It was like fighting against a ghost that had no substance.
Despite fighting so intensely, in the end, he couldn�t catch Lee Yul. He only managed to kill Baek Do-kyung, who was just a pawn.
As for Heuk-ho and the Black Cloud Corps, they were all just hired warriors who had no connection to Lee Yul.
In the end, all that Pyo-wol could find out was the name, Kowloon Assassin Guild.
It was too meager of a discovery considering the hundreds of people he had just killed, but Pyo-wol tried not to be disappointed.
He knew that everything starts with a small beginning.
The name Kowloon Assassin Guild itself was a big clue for him.
He might be stumped right now, but as long as he takes his time and gathers enough information, he will surely be able to slowly uncover their true identity.
�Oh wait!�
Pyo-wol suddenly stood up from the rock he was sitting on.
He thought that all contact with the Kowloon Assassin Guild had been lost, but there was actually still one left.
�The Golden Mountain Manor.�
Both Lee Yul and the Kowloon Assassin Guild thoroughly made use of others.
They used the Snow Sword Manor as a front, and hired mercenaries and assassins such as the Black Cloud Corps and Heuk-ho. And by putting such unrelated people in front of them, they thoroughly masked the involvement of the Kowloon Assassin Guild.
It was also Lee Yul�s doing to bring the Golden Mountain Manor to the Snow Sword Manor�s side.
The benefits that the Golden Mountain Manor would gain by helping Snow Sword Manor were not significant. Yet, the Golden Mountain Manor willingly acted as the Snow Sword Manor�s rear guard and backer.
Of course, this was before Pyo-wol killed the only daughter of the Golden Mountain Manor, causing them to withdraw their support.
It�s unlikely that Geum Shin-chung, who was more sensitive to profit than anyone else, would help the Snow Sword Manor for no reason.
�He must know something about Lee Yul and the Kowloon Assassin Guild.�
Even though the Snow Sword Manor was destroyed overnight, the Golden Mountain Manor was still left intact. But it was certain that the Golden Mountain Manor would either flee or hide once they knew of the Snow Sword Manor�s destruction.
So before any of that happens, he had to capture Geum Shin-chung and ask him about the Kowloon Assassin Guild.
Pyo-wol left the Snow Sword Manor and headed for the Golden Mountain Manor.
Finding the Golden Mountain Manor wasn�t too difficult.
All he had to do was find the largest manor in Runan.
Countless warriors stood guard on the outskirts of the manor, but slipping past their watchful eyes was not a problem for Pyo-wol.
He easily infiltrated into the manor without making a sound, and set out to find Geum Shin-chung�s residence.
Finding Geum Shin-chung�s residence wasn�t too difficult either. All Pyo-wol had to do was find the most heavily guarded area within the manor.
Standing on a branch of a large tree, Pyo-wol surveyed the grand pavilion that he assumed to be Geum Shin-chung�s dwelling.
A strict security net was spread around the perimeter of the residence, but it wasn�t enough to stop him.
Pyo-wol used his stealth techniques to sneak into the residence unnoticed. JrNovels.com
