I survived as a female assassin

Chapter 197 Acquaintance

Leng Yue looked at the old monster's room again and again, as if thinking about something.

"Survivors like us who emerged from the Blade Battalion—oh, I'm used to calling them survivors, but in the eyes of others, we're the best, the top killers who've fought through countless trials and tribulations and survived."

"Before you start taking on a task, you need to be guided by seniors."

"You, Liefeng, and I, the three of us are following this old monster."

"This old monster has been in the organization for so many years, he's become a seasoned veteran, and he has some skills in accepting missions."

"You've really inherited his true teachings on this point. Even when killing someone, you have to distinguish between what is right and what is wrong. You have to have a scale in your heart."

"These are the old monster's original words, not something I made up."

It turns out that the old monster played such a role in Xueying's life. He was truly a mentor, friend, and enlightenment teacher.

"That's how the three of us met that old monster. After that, we followed him around for a long time. That was the happiest time in my life..."

When Xin Youran heard this, she felt that Leng Yue's voice began to become hoarse.

Then she heard a sobbing sound and walked over to hug her.

They must have a deep relationship with the old monster...

Leng Yue adjusted her mood and continued, "What Chu Yuming said to you in the room just now was all said in anger. He didn't mean it that way..."

"To be precise, the four of us follow the old monster around every day, completing missions with him."

"That day, he bought information from the Wind Whisper Pavilion, saying that there was a mission on the list targeting a scumbag who bullied the market, so he accepted it. The scar you have here was also left during that mission..."

As Leng Yue spoke, he reached out and pressed a spot on Xin You'er's back with great force.

Xin Youran immediately began to feel severe pain in her head, which made her gasp for breath.

No, Leng Yue was clearly pressing her back, so why did her head start to hurt? Why is this?

Then a bunch of memory fragments flashed through her mind.

……

"I'm not saying anything bad about you, old monster. The target of this mission looks tough. Judging from his shrewd face, he must have at least eight hundred tricks up his sleeve."

Leng Yue was playing with her Purple Lightning and Green Frost Whip in her hand, while not forgetting to tease her.

It was still the same purple dress, but it wasn't as nice-looking as the one he had now.

The four of them were tracking the mission target.

"Leng Yue, what's with that look in your eyes? He's just a dandy kid. His arrogant expression has everything written all over his face. He's lucky to have a little bit of a mind, but he has eight hundred."

Chu Yuming couldn't help but complain.

"No, are we talking about the same person?"

Leng Yue asked doubtfully.

Isn’t this difference too big?

"Leng Yue, take a closer look at the list."

Liefeng has been observing the surrounding situation with his peripheral vision.

"What do you mean?"

Leng Yue asked while searching the old monster for the task information post given by Fengyu Pavilion.

That shouldn't be the case. Did she see it wrong?

"Hey, target person: Zhao Shilian, son of Marquis Kangning. He's a young marquis, so he looks respectable and well-educated, right?"

Blood Shadow, who had been silent the whole time, spoke up, "That's just Zhao Shilian's follower."

Leng Yue:!

Could it be that the fat man next to him with a mouth full of feces is the young marquis?

After following him for a while, this young marquis would pick on every vendor he came to and yell at them, asking them to pay taxes.

"Shouldn't the Ministry of Revenue be responsible for collecting taxes?"

"What kind of taxes does a small marquis like him collect?"

"You don't understand, do you? This is called the young marquis's surcharge."

Chu Yuming has seen many people like this. They rely on the power of their family to act tyrannically and always find reasons to plunder the common people.

Leng Yue: ...

"Don't make any noise!"

At Liefeng's command, the two of them curled their lips and said nothing more.

At this moment, the young marquis Zhao Shilian stopped making things difficult for the merchant because he saw a better prey.

"Hey, whose little girl is this? She's so pretty."

As he said this, he was about to go up and touch the woman who was shopping.

But before his hand touched it, he suddenly felt something hit the back of his hand, and he screamed in pain.

He looked around but couldn't find the person who attacked him, nor could he find out what hit him.

So he didn't give up and ignored the woman's resistance and continued to attack her. As a result, his other hand was also affected, and it was even more serious than the last time. A big bump swollen up directly.

His hands quickly swelled up like pig's trotters, and he cursed and swore at the servant beside him, venting all his anger on him...

Leng Yue quietly came to Xueying at this time, as if watching a good show, "You can do it, the stone can be used as a hidden weapon, the key is that the speed is so fast that no one can notice."

"Hehe, worthy of being called Blood Shadow."

Xueying ignored her and turned to ask the old monster, "When will we start?"

The old monster was still looking at the excitement, but after hearing what she said, he became anxious and asked, "Why are you doing this?"

"All three of you, get out of here. This is a mission I took on. What does it have to do with you?"

Even when the four of them arrived at the Marquis of Kangning's mansion, they still didn't see the old monster make a move...

The young marquis kept punching and kicking the servant beside him and swearing at him all the way. The servant seemed to be used to it and endured it all like a wooden man.

Seeing them disappear into the gate of the Kangning Marquis Mansion, Leng Yue became anxious, "Old monster, how long are we going to follow them?"

"A bully like Zhao Shilian should be kept for the New Year!"

The whip in her hand was ready to move.

"Don't worry, let's see again."

When the old monster said this, Chu Yuming also became uneasy, "No, Master, what are we waiting for?"

"Now is a good opportunity. If we knock out that servant, we only need one shot to kill the young marquis."

The old monster was still silent, and Xueying couldn't stand it any longer. "If you think there's something wrong with both of them, just kill them both."

Gale: ...

Leng Yue:?

Chu Yuming:? ?

"Hiss, little lady, don't be so violent all the time."

The old monster said this to Xueying, and then looked at Lengyue.

Although Lie Feng had some guesses in his mind, he still asked uncertainly: "Do you think this servant has a problem too?"

The old monster nodded. "It seems that Blood Shadow and Liefeng are quite smart. You two..."

After saying that, he sighed and shook his head.

Leng Yue was speechless for a while, "Please stop keeping me in suspense."

"what is going on?"

"Let's go, I'll buy you a drink and we can chat while we drink."
