Pyo-wol opened the window to the room where So Gyeoksan was trapped. Then, So Gyeoksan�s two eyes, burning with rage, came into view.

Even after Pyo-wol had left, he had continued to stand in the same spot, glaring out the window.

Not knowing when Pyo-wol would return.

So Gyeoksan opened his mouth.

�Pyo� wol! It was you after all.�

His voice might be very muffled from taking the Demonic Soul-Exchange Poison, but he was still full of vitality.

�What happened to you?�

�I was tricked.�

�You?�

�Yes! I was commissioned. I was asked to escort someone to this place. I was skeptical at first, but I believed in myself. I was confident that I could protect myself and my troupe no matter what, but I was wrong.�

�So, you were betrayed?�

�Yes! Ha! I was thoroughly betrayed.�

So Gyeoksan chuckled.�

Every time he laughed, a terrible aura of poison and murderous intent flowed out.

�The client requested me to escort a certain person here. To the Prison of No Return.�

�Prison of No Return?�

�You didn�t know? Well, I guess not. It�s a very confidential name after all.�

It was then.

�So this place is the Prison of No Return?�

The one who suddenly spoke was Hong Yushin.

�Ha! What did you think this place was? What other hell-like prison could there be besides the Prison of No Return?�

�I see! So that�s how it is.�

Hong Yushin had heard the name Prison of No Return before.

It had been picked up by the Hao clan�s intelligence network, but they had only heard of the name. Its actual entity was nowhere to be found, as if enveloped in a fog, so Hong Yushin suspected that it was a rumor that someone had deliberately spread.

But, after tracking down So Gyeoksan and being trapped in this place, he thought that he might be in the Prison of No Return. However, back then, it was only a guess, not a certainty.

At that moment, So Gyeoksan continued his story.

�He wanted to keep it a secret.�

�He?�

�The client. He did not want his request to become known to the world, which is why he even kept me, the man who carried out his orders, here.�

So Gyeoksan gritted his teeth. JrNovels.com
