Chapter: 347

They tried to shoot at the intruder, but the man was too fast that they couldn’t even aim. The I ntruder jumped over the building and down at the courtyard.

“W-what?! W-why are you... how?!”

Lady Mu looked at the man with dumbfounded look. The man had fiery red long hair. It was Left Guardian Lee Hameng.

“Huh?!”

She didn’t notice at first, but there was something on Lee Hameng’s right hand that dropped water from it. Lady Mu then screamed.

“Aaaaaaaaaaaaaah!!”

It was the old man’s head that Lady Mu sent to fetch the hostage. The blood was still dripping from the neck that was cut down, meaning it wasn’t long time ago when the old man died. Yeowun grinned at Lady Mu, who was wailing and spoke.

“Things aren’t going as you planned, isn’t it?”

About an hour ago, old man who arrived at the Demonic Academy with 10 warriors snuck into the academy while pressing his energy down as much as possible. He was worried about guards standing inside the academy, but if Chun Yeowun and his members managed to sneak through them, then he figured his trained warriors also can do it. And when he did, there weren’t much guards standing at the gate, and guards inside was also very crude.

‘I didn’t think the security was this bad... nobody would have known if we killed him back at the academy.’

Old man scoffed at underwhelming level of security at the academy. Chun Yeowun was powerful so it was understandable from the beginning, but these level of security proved that it would have been easy for Yeowun’s members to walk freely into the Academy. When old man got to the hill where prison cave was located at, he made his warriors to hide down at the hill and ambush Yeowun’s members when he comes down. And when he got up to the peak, old man opened his senses to find Chun Muyun and Mu Jinyun.

‘There they are.’

He found people gathered in one place and walked over. The stone that should have been sealing the cave was open and when the old man took a step in, he was shocked.

With the sound of sword pulling out, three man came out of the cave. They were instructors of Demonic Academy.

‘What is going on? Wait... did he lied to us?’

It was good that he hid his fac with a mask in case. One of the instructor was senior instructor Hou Jinchang. Hou Jinchang shouted at old man.

“How dare you infiltrate into the Demonic Academy! Put down your weapon and surrender!”

Of course, old man wasn’t going to surrender. He immediately turned and ran down the mountain. He was better than them in martial art, so he knew he can run away from them.

“Stop!”

The shout from behind got further away. He had to get down to the mountain and retreat from this place right away. He had to go straight to the Wise clan to have warriors bringing out hostage to go back.

‘How dare he lie! I’ll never...’

“What?!”

The old man when he came down had to stop. Warriors who were ordered to hide and ambush were down on the ground, drenched in blood. And in front of them, a man with long fiery red hair was standing. There were no one in the cult who didn’t know about this man.

“...Left Guardian.”

It was Left Guardian Lee Hameng. Old man frowned. He knew what was going on immediately.

‘...So, he was Chun Yeowun’s man. How can this be...’

He didn’t imagine one of guardians that served the Lord was working with Chun Yeowun. That was only explanation for such trap.

‘I have to run.’

If things had come to this, then he had to run. Warriors of Wise clan were already ordered to kill himself if they were caught. But if he gets caught, then that was different story. Old man then turned to the right and began to run. He couldn’t even think about difference in power. There was no way he will defeat supreme level warrior, so it was at least better to try to run away. But that was a false hope.

“You think you can run?”
