Chapter: 2013

�The fact that such a place was annihilated makes it a bigger problem. That means that someone else knew about it and ambushed it when we didn�t. Okay, I will mobilize the Imperial Yuan Merchant Group and Escort Agency to investigate this matter.�

�Hmm!�

Ju Seolpung gritted his teeth.

To him, the most important things were the Imperial Yuan Merchant Group and Escort Agency.�

They were the hard-earned results of the blood, sweat, and tears shed by her great-grandmother, Noh Tae-tae, her grandfather, father, and countless relatives.

He couldn�t tolerate anything that threatened Imperial Yuan Merchant Group and Escort Agency, which were everything to her family.

�Give me one day. I will definitely find those responsible for the destruction of the Poyang Lake branch.�

�Then please do so.�

Pyo-wol stood up from his seat.

With a regretful expression, Noh Tae-tae said,�

�It�s already this late, why don�t you rest here for tonight?�

�I�ve already received great hospitality for someone who is uninvited. Anything more would be a burden.�

�Well, then, there�s nothing we can do.�

�It was a pleasure meeting you today. I wish you well in the future.�

�Thank you for your kind words. Having received gratitude from the Reaper, I should be fine for several more years.�

Noh Tae-tae smiled brightly.

Pyo-wol glanced at her for a moment before leaping outside.

The moment he disappeared, Noh Tae-tae�s expression turned serious.

She turned to Ju Seolpung,

�Seolpung!�

�Yes, great-grandmother!�

�You felt it too, didn�t you? There�s an unusual current flowing in the Jianghu.�

�Yes! Even the atmosphere in Lake Poyang is also unusual, which is why I�m keeping an eye on it.��

�If we handle this matter carelessly, our entire family might be swept away by a storm.�

�From now on, I will elevate the Imperial Yuan Merchant Group and Escort Agency to state of emergency, and closely monitor Master Pyo�s movements. It seems that the direction of the storm will change depending on his actions.�

�I will leave this matter to you. Your grandfather is already too old, and your father is too impetuous to react well to these sudden changes. Only you can react quickly enough.�

�Leave it to me, great-grandmother!�

�And don�t hesitate to lend your support to Master Pyo. You should grant him whatever he wants.�

�I will do so.�

�Hah! No wonder it felt too peaceful. The higher the mountains rise, the deeper the valleys become. So, as peace prolongs, people�s desires accumulate in equal measure. It�s time to unleash those desires.� JrNovels.com
