Chapter 297: 297

“Oh…”

All of the women became disappointed as they listened, and guided the group inside . It seemed like they didn’t want to try to lure them anymore . The group was then guided to the third floor . Unlike the first and second floor where there were guests who drank liquor and wanted prostitutes, this floor had a heavier atmosphere . When they walked over, guests who were sitting down glanced over at them .

‘They are all martial artists . ’

All of them had weapons, but ranged from swords and blades to flails and other unique weapons .

“Sit here please . ”

A server on the third floor got to them and guided them into an empty spot . On the table, there was a pot and three teacups with three different colors .


“Please order and call again . ”

When the server returned, Yang Danwa sent a telepathic message .

[My lord . This is the secret information selling place within Mekin city . You can consider it similar to the Hao family . ]

‘Ah . ’

There were many clans and families in Yulin, and some of them specialized in selling information . The forces of justice had the Gae Merchant Group while the forces of evil had the Hao family . But this place seemed like they only worked at Meking City .

[This region is neutral, so they are selling information to all three factions . ]

Either the Hao Family or the Gae Merchant Group did not sell their information outside their factions, yet this place was located in a neutral city, so they worked for everyone . Yang Danwa pointed at the three cups .

[These three cups showed the rank of information being asked for . Red was low, blue was middle and white was high rank . ]

[…And what rank will our request fall under?]

[My guess is in the middle . ]


They were asking the location of one of the 18 River Family, so it was not low-ranking information . The rank would increase if they were to ask the exact location of a certain person or object .

[What do we pay with?]

[I usually pay them with money . But there are times when they require information in return . ]

Yang Danwa never experienced being asked information, but he heard that it was the case . Yang Danwa then poured the tea into the blue cup . The server returned to check and exchanged telepathic messages with Yang Danwa, to listen to what kind of information that was being asked .

“Please wait here . ”

The server then walked up back to the upper floor . Soon, he returned and spoke to them .

“I apologize, but I need to change your seating to the upper level . ”

“Upper level?”

Yang Danwa frowned . This was not the same reaction he experienced when he came last time . Normally, when the rank of the request was confirmed, it was a requirement to pay and the information was served along with food .

“Our owner wants to serve you himself . ”


“Owner?”

Something seemed a bit off, but Yeowun nodded to signal agreeance and Yang Danwa nodded . The server then guided the party up . Yang Danwa had never gone to the fourth floor yet .



[I am sure that the fourth floor is only open to those who request high-ranking information . This is strange . ]

[Well, we have no other place to ask, so we’ll see how it goes . ]

Yeowun responded as he didn’t sense any potential threats nearby . All of the people inside were weaker than them so there was no need to be afraid . As they walked up, there were many rooms and the server guided them into one . As they walked in, they were greeted into a lavishly-decorated room with a middle-aged man with an eyepatch on his right eye waiting for them . To his back, two burly guards were standing . The man got up and greeted them .

“Welcome . I am Man Ou, the owner of the Osang Family House . I figured I would have to serve valuable customers myself . ”

“I didn’t think I would meet the house owner . Thank you . ”


Yang Danwa bowed to Man Ou who offered them a seat and they sat down . Yang Danwa then asked, “Why did you call us up here? I’m sure I only asked middle-ranking information . ”

Man Ou then narrowed his eyes and spoke .

“I’m sorry, but that information is ranked at top rank . Or… shall I say, it’s a bit complicated?”


“…What do you mean?”

Yang Danwa became confused and Man Ou laughed and took something out of his pocket . It had a certain seal that read 18 .

“There are a lot who support us . This was given by one of our supporter . Do you recognize this supporter is?”

After looking at the word that read 18, Hu Bong mumbled .

“18… wait . 18 River Famlies?”

“Haha . Yes, you are quick to notice, young man . ”



Yang Danwa frowned . He didn’t imagine the 18 River Family to be one of the organizations that would support them . Man Ou continued, “But we are open to selling the information we have . So, don’t be disappointed . ”

“?”

“If you promise that the reason you are searching their location is not to harm them, and also pay my price, I will tell you where . ”

This meant that if Yeowun’s group wasn’t trying to fight with the Yongho Family, the information was open .


Around the room, there were many signs of people gathering outside . There were more than 30 of them now . With enough people gathered, Man Ou got up and spoke .

“Yang Danwa, Officer of the Northern Outpost of Demonic Cult . I heard you returned to the Mountain of Ten Thousand recently . ”

“?!”

It seemed Man Ou knew who Yang Danwa was . He then pointed at Chun Yeowun and spoke .

“Well, you must be a high-ranking individual in the cult… yet you escort that man with respect . I am very curious who that young man is . ”

“What did you say?”

It was Hu Bong and Bakgi who responded furiously . Man Ou laughed .

“Oh? I thought you needed my information? I am just telling you my price . ”

Yang Danwa frowned . What he was asking wasn’t to get the information about Yeowun . Instead, it was an act of refusal to the request .

‘You have no choice but to give up on the information . ’



Yeowun who were looking at Man Ou who were looking at them triumphantly, spoke .

“Well, you must know where they are for sure then . ”

“What?”

“UGH!”

At that moment, Yeowun reached out and gestured pulling something, and the powerful force brought one of the guards from behind Man Ou into the air .

“Force energy!”

Yeowun then grabbed the guard’s neck when it was thrown toward him . Man Ou became shocked and shouted .

“W-what are you doing!”

“I will talk with the owner . ”

“What?!”

Yeowun then clenched his hand and spoke .

“AAARGH!”

“Don’t pretend you’re just a guard, Mr . Owner . ”
