Chapter 330 – Us (1/2)

“Miss?”

The girl who was hiding in the darkness gently asked.

As expected of a professional ninja, her covert abilities were impressive, if she didn’t purposely show herself, there’s no way anyone could spot her.

“Nothing much, everything has been going well.”

ShenDai Ying absentmindedly responded and looked back at the dimly lit camp.

“‘The’ siblings aren’t suspicious of me at all and we successfully formed a team, but…”

“But?”

“But there’s two more people.”

“Who?”

“Lin Xiao and Elena…”

“Hm… miss, did something happen?”

Xiao Hua had a complicated expression and didn’t know what to say.

Should she feel happy for the lady?

I mean she did want to form a team with Lin Xiao, now that her wish came true, she should be satisfied, but… right now she had a mission, although it wasn’t an assassination mission and only a surveillance one, but there were no guarantees on what could happen.

It might have been better if Lin Xiao wasn’t there, now that there were five people, it would become harder for her to move around. If she actually did something unforgivable, she wouldn’t even be able to hide it from Lin Xiao, and at that time it would become difficult…

“Don’t worry.” ShenDai Ying gently smiled like she could tell what Xiao Hua was worrying about and changed the topic, “As for Yao Zi’s wizard’s bloodline, I already have new findings.”

Thanks to the research Lin Xiao did before leaving, he basically had an understanding of the uses and characteristics of the wizard’s bloodline. Since he liked ShenDai Ying, he didn’t hide anything about that from her and she was able to obtain precious information.

“Wizard’s pupils, imitation… my god, that’s terrifying. Who would have known that such a harmless idiot would have such terrifying power!?” Xiao Hua couldn’t calm down after hearing that.

No wonder Shen Yue Gue specially sent the lady to keep an eye on Yao Zi, there’s so much power hidden within her. If they didn’t learn about it in advance, they definitely would have suffered down the road.

“But Miss, I don’t understand, why does Lin Xiao know so much about Yao Zi’s wizard’s bloodline? I thought even Yao Zi herself doesn’t know how strong her own power is?”

“Uh, that…”

ShenDai Ying hesitated in saying it.

There was indeed an ambiguous gap about this event.

She knew that the week before leaving, Lin Xiao specially investigated Yao Zi’s wizards blood line. As for what he did, she didn’t want to ask and he didn’t say.

As for who cast it, it was still inconclusive, but ShenDai Ying had a feeling that it definitely had something to do with Lin Xiao.

It was either Lin Xiao who cast the magic or it was him and Yao Zi who did something together. Either way, it had something to do with him, otherwise how could he coincidentally learn so much about her in an instant?

However… ShenDai Ying didn’t want to talk about her conjecture.

“As for that, I don’t really know either.”

Reporting back about the mission was one thing, seeking out Lin Xiao was another. If Lin Xiao caught the attention of Shen Yue Ge and they sent someone to watch him, then even ShenDai Ying wouldn’t be able to protect him.

Of course what she didn’t know was that with Lin Xiao’s current strength, there weren’t many people in all of Shen Yue Ge that could even threaten him. The master would probably have to personally come to even be enough.

Also, even if they could take care of Lin Xiao, don’t forget, there was still a demon king that hasn’t shown her powers yet. So it would be quite difficult to assassinate them…

“Hm, since you don’t know, then that’s fine. The current information is already precious enough… Miss, you did well, after I report back, the master is sure to be pleased!”

“Is that so? I don’t really care either way, I just want him to stop giving me missions.”

“Hehe, miss, what are you afraid of. If I’m right, this might be your last mission.”

“Last mission? What do you mean?”

“Your marriage! Did you already forget?” Xiao Hua smiled, “After you come back from Gotham Kingdom, you’re going to get married with prince Caesar… one you become his bride, you wouldn’t need to take missions anymore!”

“No more mission after marriage, huh…”

ShenDai Ying bitterly smiled after listening to Xiao Hua and it was difficult to tell whether it was out of joy or a miserable one.

If she hadn’t met Lin Xiao, she might have felt happy… getting married and having kids, leaving the organization and becoming a qualified wife and outstanding mother. No more life and death situations, that was the best outcome she could think of.

That was the outcome she should have accepted, but she couldn’t do that now.

Because that man already painted her a better picture, a peaceful place, a happier ending.

Lin Xiao promised her that she wouldn’t let her marry someone else and already found a reliable way to break off the engagement, but the time wasn’t right.

Did Lin Xiao lie?

What way did he have?
