There was Jing Ke who attempted to assassinate the King of Qin in an attempt to kill the tyrant. Although he ultimately failed, when Jing Ke's hero was buried, even the First Emperor sighed and couldn't help but go to the Hero Tomb to pay his respects.
Even though Jing Ke had died, the path of assassins had been preserved, passed down from generation to generation, and the path of assassins had gradually been perfected.
Yan Yun also learned about these from his uncle, in this world there are two Assassin Family s, each with their own things, the East is a pure Assassin Family, these people not only retained the path of a complete assassin, they also strictly followed Jing Ke's last words, did not kill those who are loyal, did not kill those who are virtuous, and so on.
As for the Assassin Family s of the West, while they had obtained the path of assassins, they did not care about morality. They had forgotten their ancestors, and as long as they had enough money, they could buy and assassinate them.
Although Yan Yun was not a good person, at least he would not treat his own brothers unfairly. According to the uncle's conjecture, the killer with the name Xiao Yi should be from the Western Assassin Family.
There was no enmity between the two, but since the other party had come looking for him, Yan Yun would naturally not be courteous.
Yan Yun thought for a bit and immediately felt a headache. He suddenly realized that he had offended too many people, and there were also many suspected people, so it was difficult to find out who the real culprit was.
After pondering for a moment, he listed the four suspects.
However, Yan Yun was certain that they had not escaped completely, but rather, reaped the fruits of their victory. After ten years, how strong were they exactly, Yan Yun could not even guess, although he had been keeping a low profile the entire time, his conduct and deeds were still discovered by the people, and those people were the ones who had the most power to bribe the Assassin Family, that was the biggest problem.
This was worth pondering over. But what was undeniable, was that Mingyue definitely did not want to be controlled by Yan Yun, and she definitely had thoughts of killing Yan Yun. Furthermore, with her mysteriousness, it was hard to guarantee that there would be a way to bribe the Assassin Family.
He should have already recovered by now, but according to his personality, the first thing he should do after recovering was to seek revenge on Yan Yun. Why was he still not making a move even now, there must be some unspeakable secret between them, and with Xu Family's financial power, wanting to bribe the Assassin Family was not impossible.
In the end, it was a power that Yan Yun did not know of. It was very likely that this power knew of the matters on Maple Island, and formed a relationship with Yan Yun. After the plan fails, they were prepared to bribe the Assassin Family to kill Yan Yun.
This group of people's movements were unfathomable, and Yan Yun was temporarily unable to do anything to them, but Yan Yun actually hoped that it was them, because if it was true, and those people truly wanted to kill Yan Yun, then they would definitely take a step forward. As such, their movements would gradually become exposed, and the unknown in the past would become known, and Yan Yun might completely defeat them.
But right now, Yan Yun still did not know anything about these people, so he was not able to verify anything. Like them, the last party, Yan Yun, was also unable to find out who they were, and these two parties could only put them aside for now.
Yan Yun did not like being passive, so he had to go and check them out one by one.
Mei Ying didn't say anything for a long time, he knew that Yan Yun was thinking about it. After a long while, Yan Yun finally opened his mouth.
”Check out Xu Zihao's and Mingyue's recent itineraries.”
Yan Yun's words were simple, but Mei Ying understood in an instant, and his eyes were filled with killing intent. Mei Ying did not let go of the fact that the two of them dared to threaten the man beside them, and with just a few words from Yan Yun, Brightmoon and Xu Zihao were included in the list of people they were not meant to kill.
Xie Wang wanted his life, so the killing list was dark. None of the people he wanted to kill could escape.
Yan Yun patted Mei Ying's shoulder. He knew what Mei Ying was thinking at the moment, that this man who looked cold and heartless, was someone who could kill others for his own sake. Slowly, Yan Yun's thoughts flew to the past.
That year, when he was still a little kid, he was brought around by his uncle. When they passed by a poor and barren village at the edge of the Northwest Desert, he saw a married couple being killed in a pool of blood. Their bodies were separated from one another, their heads rolling in the blood.
However, everything did not end there. The few big men also noticed the abnormality of the Little boy, looked at each other, then patted Little boy on the head with their Zhanmadao and said: ”Nuo, as long as you eat the blood on the ground, we will let you live. You will definitely want to take revenge, right? Drink! As long as you drink it all up, we won't kill it for you. We'll give you a chance to take revenge when you grow up. ”
Little boy's body trembled, he looked at his parents' necks and spat out a mouthful of blood, then crawled towards them.
