Chapter: 1989

Although he was starving, Pyo-wol did not rush to eat. He chewed each piece of the meat slowly, while thinking about his plans for the future.�

�I�ll contact the Hao clan branch first and then gather as much information as possible about So Gyeoksan�s whereabouts.�

By pursuing So Gyeoksan and the Heavenly Flower Variety Theater Troupe�s movements, Pyo-wol would naturally be able to discover Hong Yushin�s whereabouts as well.

As Pyo-wol was lost in thought, the speed at which he ate became even slower. It had been two hours since he had started eating, but there was still a lot of food left on his plate.

Just as Pyo-wol was about to finish the remaining food,�

Bang!

Suddenly, someone forcefully opened the door to the inn and entered.

The people who entered the inn were dressed in shabby clothes.�

They were dirty and smelly like they hadn�t showered in a very long time. The odor coming from them was so foul that those who were sitting near the entrance covered their noses and moved away from them.

The people sitting at the table near Pyo-wol murmured amongst themselves as they looked at new guests,��

�Those hideous guys from the Blood Ant Gang have come back again.�

�Who�s going to teach those guys a lesson? Every time an opportunity arises for them to make a little profit, they start causing trouble. It�s hard to find a place to live peacefully.�

�I don�t know if someone would be willing to do that. It�ll only exhaust them if they get tangled with them for no reason. It�s better to just ignore them completely.�

The men who entered the inn uninvited seemed to be from a group called the Blood Ant.3�

As the members of the Blood Ant Gang appeared, the innkeeper hurriedly rushed out. His face was red with anger, as he engaged in a heated argument with the Blood Ant Gang martial artists.�

Their voices might not be inaudible to everyone else�s ears, but they were clear to Pyo-wol�s ears.

�Haven�t I already paid the protection fee for this month?! How come you�re coming to collect again?��

�Forget about that. You borrowed money from us, didn�t you? So, you should pay the interest.�

�Interest? Didn�t I already pay the upfront interest? And now you want me to pay again?�

�Our boss clearly mentioned it, didn�t he? The interest that comes from borrowing money in our Blood Ant Gang is expensive. and yet you still borrowed money to build an annex. It�s not fair for you to do this now.�

�Damn it! So you�re saying you�ll collect the upfront interest and ask for more?�

�Hehe! That�s how the world works. If you don�t like it, hand over the annex to us.�

�Argh!�

In the end, the innkeeper let out a pained groan and reluctantly handed over the interest to the members of the Blood Ant Gang.�

�Hehe!�

One of the members of the Blood Ant Gang holding a pouch of gold coins, laughed ominously as he looked around the inn.

�Indeed, the newly built one is nice. It�s clean and spacious. How great it would be if our Blood Ant Gang could operate here.�

�W, What are you talking about?�

�I�m just saying. There�s no way it would actually happen, right? As long as you pay the interest on time, there shouldn�t be any problems. Well then, have a good day.�

The Blood Ant martial artists bowed slightly to the innkeeper before leaving the establishment.� JrNovels.com
