Mercenary Harem in Murim Novel

Chapter 144 – Darkest Place Under Brightest Light [2]

After dealing with the Supreme Evil's followers, Leo and his team returned to their base. He gave out commands to Jack and Anya to deal with the prisoner and had Astrid follow them to learn about their interrogation technique.

Meanwhile, Leo himself went to another place to meet again with Kim Min-Gu after disguising himself.

After unlocking his Qi and reaching a certain realm, he could feel someone's Qi. And combined with his Nanites and smart lenses connected to them, he could pinpoint where they were in a map for precise positioning.

That was how he found the location of Kim Min-Gu, who was waiting for him.

The place was a small restaurant, and the disciple was sitting on an inconspicuous corner alone. There was a plate filled with chicken dumpling on the table and he ate it very slowly, savoring the flavor.

"Should I order you more chicken dumplings? It seems you enjoy it a lot." Leo sat across from Kim Min-Gu.

At first, he blinked a few times, not realizing who the person was. Then, he noticed a Mercenary Union badge that Leo intentionally showed.

"Oh, it's Leader! I almost failed to recognize you. Your disguise is so amazing."

"Call me Yang Ji when I look like this." Leo smiled and ordered a drink. "It's nice to see you, Kim Min-Gu. How's the Heavenly Demon doing? Has he recovered his Qi and injuries he suffered from the attack?"

"He's fine. He has recovered completely. Master very much wants to visit you and offer his gratitude for your help at that time. However, we are hiding ourselves for now because the Murim is restless. So allow me to convey his message."

Kim Min-Gu bowed at Leo seriously, his expression earnest.

"He said, 'Thank you for helping me at the critical time and lending me your aid. We will be your ally in case you need us in the future. From the information we gained, it seems we share a common enemy. Don't hesitate to contact the Demon Sect through this brat.' I believe this brat refers to me, hahaha."

"Hahahaha, I see. I shall keep that in mind." Leo laughed and took a sip of his drink, a beer.

He was not surprised by the Heavenly Demon's words. After all, he knew had slipped information about the real enemy that wanted to eradicate the Demon Sect.

"Please, let me know what you have in mind."

Kim Min-Gu nodded his head, his expression serious and his body stiff. He seemed ready for anything, including his life being exchanged.

Based on his knowledge, he knew that Leo wasn't a kind person who would do a job for free. He was prepared for anything since he made a request.

"You have the ability to sense the dark and murky Qi, right? That's why you sensed the Supreme Evil's follower and came to warn me. Am I correct?"

"Yes, I can. Our method allows us to sense such energy and determine its origin. We can also identify the source of the energy and their characteristics."

Kim Min-Gu explained, his expression calm and relaxed.

"Perfect." A satisfied smile formed on Leo's face as he relaxed his sitting position, "I will have you to escort me to a certain place and sense any abnormal energy in the area."

"Huh?" Kim Min-Gu blinked a few times, not understanding what he meant. "Do you mean a place infested with Supreme Evil's followers or a place where they gather?"

"Yes."

Gulping nervously, Kim Min-Gu looked around and whispered, "You're going to hunt Supreme Evil's followers? Is it even possible? They're hidden deep in the Murim, and even the Murim Alliance can't find them. Where are they hiding?!"

"They are hiding in the darkest corner, but you surely know the place very well."

Sipping his beer, Leo looked at Kim Min-Gu's expression and was amused. This boy was too easy to read and earnest. He actually thought about it seriously and didn't even doubt him.

"What's this place?"

Hearing the question he had been waiting for, Leo put his beer on the table and smiled.

"The Imperial Capital."
