Chapter: 2050
�Master Pyo! My great-grandmother is in danger!�
Ju Seolpung said with all his might.
Pyo-wol nodded quickly, then launched himself towards Xielao Manor.�
�Keugh!�
Ju Seolpung used his sword as a cane to pull himself up.
Although Pyo-wol had gone to Noh Tae-tae, there was no one for Ju Seolpung�s father.
It was then.
�Young Master!�
�No way!�
The Shadow Strike Squad, who had been outside, rushed in.
They hurriedly tried to support Ju Seolpung. However, Ju Seolpung waved his hand and said,
�I�m fine. Go to my father instead. You mustn�t be late.�
�Oh no!�
The Shadow Strike Squad left Ju Seolpung and hurriedly went to the main building of the Imperial Yuan Merchant Group.
Watching them move away, Ju Seolpung clenched his teeth.
�Please don�t be late��

Noh Tae-tae raised her head and looked at the night sky.
In the distance, a faint moon was barely visible, whether this was because of her failing eyesight or the fact that her remaining days were numbered, she couldn�t tell.
Noh Tae-tae thought it didn�t matter. She believed she had already lived a long life, and she had a feeling that she finished all the work she needed to do in this world.�
�In this era, it�s the young people who lead the way, while the elderly who have completed their duty disappear into the background. That is the natural order of the world.�
A serene smile graced Noh Tae-tae�s lips, reminiscent of her youth.
�Keuck!�
�Geuh!�
Suddenly, screams erupted one after another in the vicinity.
Noh Tae-tae�s complexion changed drastically.
Since Pyo-wol�s visit, Noh Tae-tae�s son had thought that the defense of Xielao Manor was inadequate and had bolstered their forces.
The current defense of Xielao Manor was almost three times larger than when Pyo-wol invaded. Moreover, the quality of the experts guarding it was significantly higher.
Yet, to hear such screams meant that a formidable expert had infiltrated Xielao Manor.
