Chapter 145: Four Demon Lords
Only the footsteps of the Undercover Demon Clan heading toward Cheonhap echoed rhythmically.
Baek Moo-jin was nowhere to be seen in the procession of the Undercover Demon Army. Sometimes he scouted ahead of them, other times he silently followed behind. His lightness skills were so vastly superior to theirs that the entire Undercover Demon Army had no way of pinpointing his location.
Baek Moo-jin was traveling the road with the secret agents, but he had no intention of mingling with them. Since Baek Moo-jin had disappeared after setting out, the commander kept glancing around frequently.
‘Surely he hasn’t left?’
Suddenly, the commander called over one of his subordinates and said.
“Gwanmyeong.”
“Yes.”
The commander took a silver coin from his robe and handed it to Gwanmyeong.
“You take this road back to the village we just passed through. Buy some white cloth to use as a mask, then catch up before we reach Cheonhap.”
“Pardon?”
“A mask. White.”
The man named Gwanmyeong tilted his head in confusion.
“Are you suddenly telling me to wear a white mask?”
At that, the commander nodded and said.
“Bring a few extra, more than the number of people. Do as you’re told. It’s important.”
“Understood.”
Baek Moo-jin was moving at the same pace as the secret agents, slightly separated from the main group. He knew the commander was looking for him, but he walked quietly, hiding his body in the darkness. Of course, he had heard the commander’s words.
