The light coming from the torch made the killing intent in his eyes shine even more intensely.

The man was none other than So Gyeoksan.�

So Gyeoksan had his arms stretched out wide while looking at Lee Hogwan and his men.

Lee Hogwan asked,�

�Who are you?�

�So Gyeoksan.�

A raspy, phlegmatic voice escaped So Gyeoksan�s lips.

�So Gyeoksan? So it�s you? The one who snuck in from the outside?�

�No. I�m one of the people imprisoned in this place.�

So Gyeoksan pointed to the inner iron door with his hand.

�Is that so?�

The corner of Lee Hogwan�s lips curled up for a moment.

He knew that the people trapped behind those iron doors were addicted to the Demonic Soul-Exchange Poison.

Once the Demonic Soul-Exchange Poison is ingested, it invades one�s internal energy, causing them to lose their reason and follow their master�s command.

Those poisoned with the Demonic Soul-Exchange Poison could not manipulate their internal energy at all unless they regularly took an antidote.

Lee Hogwan didn�t know how So Gyeoksan was still maintaining his sanity, but since So Gyeoksan was poisoned with the Demonic Soul-Exchange Poison, he should not be able to use his internal energy.�

In other words, Lee Hogwan had nothing to fear.

�It seems that the rat that sneaked in has released you. Where is he? If you answer obediently, I�ll send you back into your cell.�

�You�re wrong.�

�What?�

�He is not a rat. He�s a snake, a venomous snake hiding in the darkness, waiting to strike.�

�What nonsense are you talking about? If you continue to spout nonsense, it would be best for you to go back into the cell.�

�Heh! Why should I go back there when you�re all here? I won�t leave this place until I�ve taken all of your lives.�

�You�ve completely lost your mind. What are you waiting for? Send that guy back to his place now!�

�Yes!�

Two subordinates responded in unison as they approached So Gyeoksan.

They knew that So Gyeoksan was poisoned with the Demonic Soul-Exchange Poison, so they did not bother putting their guards up.�

They each positioned themselves at So Gyeoksan�s sides, attempting to grab him by the arms.�

But at that moment, something unexpected happened.
