Chapter: 2014
Ju Seolpung clenched his fist at Noh Tae-tae�s lament.
�I would never let these times of chaos threaten our Imperial Yuan Merchant Group. I will make sure of that.�

Pyo-wol walked out of the Xielao Manor.�
It was late at night, so the manor was quiet. There were occasional patrols, but they couldn�t even detect Pyo-wol�s presence, let alone his shadow.
The meeting with Noh Tae-tae and Ju Seolpung was fruitful. It enabled him to gather information effectively in Lake Pyoang.�
Pyo-wol knew better than anyone how important information gathering was. He was well aware of the significant power that came with preemptively seizing information ahead of others.
He headed towards an inn on the shore of Lake Poyang.
The wind blew through the reed field where moonlight poured.
Swoosh!
The reeds swayed in the wind, creating a spectacular scene.
Pyo-wol stopped in the middle of the reed field and watched them ripple in the moonlight.
The reed leaves that got swept up in the wind scattered in the air.
In the next moment, Pyo-wol�s figure disappeared among the reeds.
A moment later, someone appeared in the spot where Pyo-wol had been standing, wearing a puzzled expression.
It was a man whose face was covered by a mask.
He quickly looked around, but he couldn�t see any sign of Pyo-wol anywhere.
�What the hell?�
He inadvertently muttered under his breath.
The man heightened his senses as he tried to search for Pyo-wol�s whereabouts. However, the sound of the wind blowing and the rustling of the reed leaves colliding disrupted his senses.
�Damn it!�
The man cursed.
The man was none other than Yeom Hee-soo�s henchman, Wol Gwi.
He was a skilled assassin carefully trained by the Huaying Fortress, usually serving as Yeom Hee-soo�s guard.
Although he was not as widely known in the Jianghu like the Hundred Wraith Union or the Ten Thousand Man Slayer, he took great pride in his assassination skills.
Even for him, Pyo-wol was a burden.
His opponent was a man who had earned the title of Reaper.
Someone who is regarded as the pinnacle of assassins.
He�d be lying if he said he wasn�t burdened by the thought of secretly tracking such a man. However, as he pursued Pyo-wol throughout the day, he gradually regained his confidence because Pyo-wol hadn�t noticed his pursuit at all.
�So, the Reaper is nothing special.� JrNovels.com
