Chapter 331 – The Rule Of Assassination! (2/2)

The black-clad army of the Lu family was such a group of supporting characters.

He didn't know their names, but that didn't stop him from respecting them and protecting them. And even risking his life to save them.

“Interesting. Very interesting.” Unpredictable immortal laughed heartily, because he looked too much like a woman, even if he showed a very heroic action he still looked very feminine. “The prestigious and famous Strange Taoist was unexpectedly defeated by a n.o.body. If this matter goes out, it's going to shake the entire Divine continent.”

Li Muyang sneered: “I am not interested in shaking the Divine continent, I am more interested whether you were shaken.”

“Oh. Is it because I am beautiful?”

“Speak nicely, these words make people feel sick.” Li Muyang couldn't stand his coquettish behaviour.

“Humph.” Infuriated, Unpredictable immortal clasped his sword tightly, glowering at Li Muyang. “You're from the Yan family of Tiandu?”

“So what?” Since Li Muyang had said his name was Yan Xiangma, he now had to continue pretending till the end. “I can tell you, our Yan family has many talents, numerous masters, you're just hitting a dog with a meat bun——”

Thinking it over, he felt that this was too insulting to his good friend Yan Xiangma.

So, Li Muyang hurriedly changed his tune. “You won't be able to return if you go there. Of course, you have no chance of going there either.”

“As far as I know, Tiandu's Cui family and Lu family have been enemies for hundreds of years, your Yan family and Cui family are like birds of a feather, are in-laws. So I do not understand why a person of the Yan family would risk his life to help the Lu family?” Unpredictable immortal expressed his suspicions. “Have you not thought that, perhaps, Strange Taoist and I were hired by your Yan and Cui family?”

Lu Qingming also couldn't help s.h.i.+fting his sight to Li Muyang.

Lu Qingming knew that this young man was not Yan Xiangma, because he knows the real Yan Xiangma.

But who was this person? Why did he say his name is Yan Xiangma? Could he a young talent of the Yan family that he didn't know about?

Thinking that this person was from the Yan family, he couldn't help feeling disappointed. If his Lu family had a child like him——ah, the son of the Lu family is also extremely talented, the letter that the Lady sends to him were always full of praise for their son. Some days ago he also heard that he was highly valued by the Double walls of Calligraphy and painting of Starry Sky Academy Gu Huangwu, and was taken in as his disciple, arousing heated discussion and the Divine continents concern.

Unfortunately, his father had made such a ruthless decision back then. It most likely had hurt the child's heart forever?

Thinking of this, Lu Qingming couldn't help sighing heavily.

Every family has its problems!

“Right, why should the Yan family desperately protect the Lu family?” Li Muyang forced a smile. Even he himself was suspecting that the Cui family ordered the a.s.sa.s.sination of Lu Qingming. He had heard from Lu Qiji that the Cui family wanted to retaliate against him and his family, but the Lu family escorted them to Tiandu and protected them. The two families have been enemies for hundred years, it is not at all surprising that there have been a few a.s.sa.s.sination incidents.

However, since he had already shouted that he is Yan Xiangma, then there was no reason to expose his ident.i.ty now.

So, Li Muyang angrily shouted back: “You think words can ruin my relations.h.i.+p with Uncle Lu? There are some conflicting views between our family and the Lu family, but those are just administrative issues——Yan family has been a rich and powerful for hundred years, we would not do such evil deeds as hiring a.s.sa.s.sins to murder people. Such acts are done by hoodlum, and we despise them. Since I, Yan Xiangma ran into this incident, then I must uphold justice and save him. By doing so I can live up to the reputation and good character that our family had acc.u.mulated for years.”

“Good character and reputation?” Unpredictable immortal giggled. “I hope you're saying what's on your mind. Otherwise, if such a young boy is that shameless, then later I don't know what monster you will become——”

Before his voice faded, the figure of Unpredictable immortal suddenly and rapidly retreated.

Beautiful clothes quickly vanished, moving back into the thick fog of the bamboo sea.

Shrinking to inches!

The escape version of shrinking to inches!

Li Muyang thought to himself that when he returns to Starry sky, he must ask Master Xiahou to teach him this unique Taoist skill. It was extremely effective in both fighting and escaping.

The most important thing was that it looked very cool and impressive.

“Don't you dare run.”

Li Muyang bellowed and was about to give chase.

“I'll go.” As Lu Qingming shouted, he was already clasping his silver spear and charging over.

Very soon, the two figures had vanished without a trace in the sea of fog.

By the time Li Muyang and the many black-clad soldiers caught up, Lu Qingming had already knocked Unpredictable immortal to the ground, pointing the tip of the silver spear at his throat.

“A scholar prefers death to humiliation.” Unpredictable immortal was paler than paper, blood seeping out the corner of his mouth as he grunted: “Kill me.”

“Are you a scholar?” Lu Qingming said coldly. “You can die. But you have to answer one question——who sent you?”

Unpredictable immortal giggled incessantly, but because the laughter used too much force it impacted the injury of his internal organs, blood gushed out his mouth.

“You should be aware that us a.s.sa.s.sins have no regard for our own life——We can disregard life, law, ethics, human feelings, but we have to abide by the rule of a.s.sa.s.sination. Otherwise, we would become a disgrace to the entire a.s.sa.s.sin industry and be reviled by the generations of a.s.sa.s.sins to come.”

“The only rule that needs to be followed is: never disclose the ident.i.ty of the employer.”
