Chapter 116: Tiger’s Den 3
A black-clad figure belonging to the Ghost Spirit Gate, a black-cloaked organization, was approaching the Jinling Trading Company.
His movements were light, and his footsteps were almost inaudible.
Moreover, the black-clad figure moved only within the shadows cast in various places, maintaining his speed.
Using lightness skills, the figure silently scaled a wall, then effortlessly leapt onto the central building of the Jinling Trading Company. Walking across the roof, he surveyed the entire compound.
He drew a small, finger-sized piece of blue metal from his robe. It was a peculiar piece of metal with a hole drilled diagonally through its center.
When the black-clad figure hurled it forward, a sharp whistling sound erupted, like a signal flare or a flute being blown.
Only then did those waiting outside the Jinryeong Trading Post begin to move.
They had deliberately sent scouts ahead to check for any suspicious activity.
The man in black stood on the roof, then spun once in midair before landing on the ground. He surveyed his surroundings, then spoke softly toward the central building.
“Hong Dan-ju.”
Hong Yugang, who had already sensed something, stepped out from inside and said.
“What an ambitious hour to arrive. Open the gate wide.”
The guards rushed out and opened the main gate.
The man in black looked at Hong Yugang and said.
“Hong Danju, have you been drinking until this hour?”
Hong Yugang snorted derisively.
“Who the hell are you to speak to me like that? Take off your mask and talk properly.”
