Slap!
A transparent and sharp sound echoed from Jun Myungs head.
Silly idiot!
Ah, r-right. That couldnt be. Hehe.
Dam Hyun burst into anger, and Jun Myung awkwardly scratched his head.
Dam Hyuns hand appeared to harm greater than the smack he had given to Jun Myung.
Yi-gang, who was standing close by, chuckled.
Certainly, even when Senior Brother Dam Hyuns mood isnt nice, he wouldnt pores and skin someones face off.
Eh? Ah truly, it wasnt Senior Dam Hyun however Senior Yi-gang who
This time, Yi-gang smacked Jun Myung on the pinnacle.
Dam Hyun chuckled beside them.
Ouch!
Youre ungrateful in any case Ive completed for you.
He-hehe
Till then, Flowing Cloud Flying Dragon and Lightning Flash, who had been rolling their eyes, lastly realized it was a joke when Jun Myung laughed.
I solely thought that for a second, only for a second.
After all, it appeared prefer it wasnt fully a joke.
The eyes of the next-generation successors sparkled with curiosity this time.
Yi-gang, who gave the impression to be of comparable age because the third-generation disciples, was being known as Senior.
I’m Zhongnans Flowing Cloud Flying Dragon, Lee Jae-il.
Im Diancangs Lightning Flash, Yu Tae-jin. By any likelihood, are you?
As they launched themselves with a proper bow, Yi-gang additionally responded with a bow, I’m Baek Yi-gang, presently misunderstood as a suspect.
Ahaha I made a mistake earlier. The officer conveyed the message incorrectly.
Lee Jae-il, who had shouted at first upon listening to {that a} witness and suspect have been coming, laughed awkwardly.
Yu Tae-jin, standing beside him, nonetheless had a curious expression.
By any likelihood, are you from the Baek Noble Clan?
Sure. Thats right.
Then you’re the son of the Iron Blood Cruel Baek Ryu-san
Sure, he’s my father.
Ah!
Yu Tae-jins expression turned advanced. Lee Jae-il, who had been silent, additionally exclaimed as if shocked.
So, its true that the eldest son of the Baek Noble Clan joined the Azure Forest!
Its been slightly below 5 years.
To go away your personal clan and be a part of one other sect You should have confronted many hardships.
The comment about enduring hardships was oddly phrased.
Did you come to take part within the Dragon-Phoenix Convention?
Sure, Im not taking part immediately, however I got here to steer my juniors.
Then, your youthful brother, Baek Ha-jun, have to be taking part within the Seven Stars Convention.
Are you aware Ha-jun?
How might I not know the Iron-Blood Genius? Its a well known story that the Left Guardian of the Murim Alliance, who visited the Baek Noble Clan, named Baek Ha-juns swordsmanship and bestowed him with that title.
Iron-Blood Genius?
Yi-gang had a glance of disbelief.
Iron-Blood Genius? Was it a title handed down from his father, referred to as the Cruel Iron Blood?
It was true that Baek Ha-jun was a genius with the sword. Among the many rising stars, it was uncommon to discover a sword genius surpassing Baek Ha-jun. Yi-gang was sure of this.
However he couldnt perceive the phrase hooked up to it.
Iron-Blood? That clueless man?
Ha-jun was certainly recognized for his minimal emotional expression and his extraordinarily rational demeanor.
Nonetheless, the Baek Ha-jun that Yi-gang remembered was nonetheless only a clueless child.
Thats fairly an ill-fitting title.
Haha Is that so?
Yi-gang himself didnt understand he was judging based mostly on his requirements from practically 5 years in the past, and really a lot from an older brothers perspective.
Then, Jin Ri-yeon chimed in, Anyway. Now looks like the time to deal with the present matter.
Ah, proper.
She was right.
That they had gathered on this outdated inn by the order of the governor.
It was a forceful strategy, anticipating the martial artists to place their heads collectively and obtain some outcomes.
It was all as a result of anger of the fearsome Henan Province governor that might even frighten birds away.
Yi-gang listened to what Jin Ri-yeon had came upon and the method to this point.
Yi-gang additionally defined what occurred in Yanling County. After all, contemplating the next-generation successors behind him, he omitted something associated to the Low Down Sect.
To start with, Im curious in regards to the goal of that fiend.
Its essential to know why he skinned peoples faces.
As Jin Ri-yeon and Yi-gang murmured this, Flowing Cloud Flying Dragon joined the dialog.
A perverted assassin, maybe.
A perverted assassin?
Among the many fiends, there are these whose nature is twisted, affected by perversion. Might or not it’s somebody who will get excited by the act of skinning peoples faces?
However what did that must do with something?
Head Officer Jang was steadily dropping his persistence.
Yi-gang continued to maneuver round, inspecting even seemingly insignificant issues.
He gathered the dry mud on the desk right into a clump, then blew it away with a puff.
The wind is blowing.
Thats as a result of the window is open. What about it?
Somebody chuckled at that irritated tone.
It was Lee Jae-il. As everyones consideration turned to him, he waved his hand with a smile.
Ah, my apologies.
Why did you chortle? Yu Su-rin boldly requested.
Lee Jae-il wasnt flustered and replied, It jogged my memory of a road novel I learn a very long time in the past.
A novel?
It was a miscellany, titled <Detective Adventures>. Its a couple of naive younger man chasing a assassin. It simply got here to thoughts.
Whether or not such a novel actually existed was unknown, however his intention was clear.
He was evaluating Yi-gang, who appeared to know what he was doing, to the naive younger man within the story.
In different phrases, it was a roundabout means of insulting him.
Solely Jun Myung, who failed to know the metaphor, interjected nonchalantly, Senior Yi-gang is sort of sensible.
They are saying being born with meridian blockage endows one with distinctive intelligence. Im trying ahead to it.
It was a glance of utter disinterest.
Jin Ri-yeon frowned, and Yu Su-rin and Son Hee-il additionally had reactions that confirmed their displeasure.
However since they couldnt give you something to say in response and couldnt begin a struggle both, they remained silent.
After all, there was somebody right here who didnt care about such issues.
That impolite brat. What an perspective, Dam Hyun, who had been crossing his arms, muttered with a drained look in his eyes.
For Lee Jae-il, it was a phrase he had by no means heard in his life.
W-what? What does that imply!
Nonetheless, he couldnt keep indignant to the tip.
Thats sufficient, Yi-gang stated so and stood up.
Have been completed right here. Lets go outdoors.
Head Officer Jang seemed baffled.
It appears you dont perceive. The governor has given a strict order. Till the fiend is caught, you all should proceed to cooperate with the investigation right here.
Im conscious of that.
You should take this severely!
I’ve found the identification of the fiend.
What do you imply by that?
Head Officer Jang stopped in his tracks.
The others additionally checked out Yi-gang in disbelief.
Yi-gang, unconcerned, opened the door and stepped out.
He leaned on the railing that missed the primary ground.
Head Officer Jang hurriedly adopted.
What do you imply by that! You found the identification of the fiend. Primarily based on what!
After I got here in, I noticed many individuals gathered within the inn. These sporting official robes are investigators, and there are associates too.
The scenario is critical.
It appears the Grand Coordinator takes this case very severely.
Grand Coordinator! Yi-gang all of a sudden shouted this, inflicting everybody beneath to search for in unison.
Head Officer Jang was startled, however Yi-gang instantly shouted, I’ve discovered the fiend.
How reckless! an investigator in official robes scolded with a fan in hand.
However then, an aged man in plain garments gently pushed the investigators shoulder.
The investigator shortly bowed and stepped again.
Even figuring out I’m right here, you dare to look down from above.
Regardless of being aged, his voice rang out sharply.
My apologies. It was pressing.
After which, Yi-gang leaped off the railing.
The individuals beneath have been startled, however the aged man stood calmly.
Yi-gang landed softly, making no sound in any respect.
Even the officers admired his good secret artwork of sunshine footwork.
The aged man, with Yi-gang kneeling on one knee earlier than him, commanded, You say youve discovered the fiend. Clarify.
The physique is upstairs.
What?
The Governor of Henan Province, who had come incognito, hardened his expression.
The proprietor of this inn was the fiend who skinned peoples faces. He has taken his personal life.
You wretch!
The second the governor shouted, the officers concurrently pointed their spears and swords at Yi-gang.
If you don’t present a passable clarification, I’ll take it as an insult to me.
Amidst that mountain of blades and forest of swords, Yi-gang calmly opened his mouth.
