In the empty hall, the leader stood quietly on the ground.
Suddenly, he seemed to have thought of something and sneered.
"It seems that the lesson learned last time was not enough."
"In order to save her, he gave up everything and threatened fate. It's really touching..."
He smiled mockingly, and his figure slowly disappeared into the shadows.
…
"puff!"
In a small alley in Dadong City, a thin old man with an old face and dry, dull white hair spit out a mouthful of scarlet blood.
"Cough, cough, cough!"
The old man seemed to be choked by the scarlet blood in his throat and coughed twice.
After a moment, the old man tremblingly raised his wrinkled skin and wiped the remaining blood from the corner of his mouth.
He tremblingly picked up the small homemade wooden plate stained with blood in his hand, and suddenly smiled with difficulty.
"Hahaha……"
Although an unknown amount of his life force passed away in this moment, his lifespan was also greatly reduced.
But he still smiled happily.
He caressed the small wooden plate in his hand with a gentle expression.
"Aunt Lan, she is indeed someone who has a great relationship with you..."
"I don't have the power to restrain a chicken, but I have the power to change my destiny..."
"I couldn't change your destiny, but I changed her destiny..."
"You will definitely be very happy..."
The old man stroked the wooden plate in his hand and spoke softly.
After an unknown amount of time, he tried to get up, but found that his strength was too little and he couldn't stand up at all, so he sat down on the ground again.
He laughed at himself: "I should call him Lao Shengun now..."
Then he groaned and used all his strength to stand up against the wall.
The old magic stick was only wearing a tattered little gown.
If it had been before, he wouldn't have felt cold.
But now, his thin body only felt the cold wind blowing around him, and his limbs felt cold.
"Oh, my god, my god, it seems that you not only have to be a god for the rest of your life, but you also have to be a bachelor for the rest of your life... Hahaha..."
Tightening his clothes, the old magician smiled and shook his head, holding the small wooden plate and laughing heartily.
The body as thin as dry wood walked tremblingly towards the street...
He is going to start wandering.
Maybe no one will notice this insignificant little person.
She, the one for whom the old magic stick has paid the most, will not know all this.
He did all this not because of love.
He just felt that he should do all this.
Someone can change destiny.
Little did he know that he had already been caught up in his destiny.
Changing destiny is a false proposition.
…
The Quiet Room of Qinglong Pavilion.
Lu Jiu closed her eyes tightly and sat cross-legged on the ground.
Red blood streaks emitted from his heart, like a whirlpool.
The blood in his body continuously supplied abundant energy, so Lu Jiu didn't have to worry about starving to death if he didn't eat.
Lu Jiu concentrated on controlling the Chi Xuan Qi in his body, slowly absorbing the energy of the blood mass.
Threads of blood containing powerful power flowed into Lu Jiu's limbs and bones, constantly strengthening his body and undergoing unknown transformations.
The amount of Chi Xuan's true energy is also constantly increasing. Although it is slow, it is still much faster than Lu Jiu's previous speed.
It will take a long, long time for Lu Jiu to completely absorb this mass of blood.
Among them, Lu Jiu has not yet come into contact with the most powerful force...
…
laugh!
Ah Qi's slightly long black hair trembled slightly, her face was cold, and she held the magic knife Thousand Blades and slashed across the neck of the person in front of her as quickly as the wind.
Blood splattered everywhere, and Aqi's body jumped among the surrounding figures like a ghost.
Every time he makes a move, a fresh life flows by.
His killing was efficient, his actions were sharp, he was not sloppy, he was crisp and clean, and he harvested the lives around him as ruthlessly as cutting leeks.
Not long after, layers of corpses piled up around him.
However, people one after another rushed towards him without fear of death!
"Kill that assassin! You must not let him come here! You must protect your wife!"
A middle-aged man in fine clothes stood in front of a carriage and shouted impassionedly.
However, ordinary people without any resistance cannot stop the Shadow Assassin!
Bang——
Ah Qi kicked away the last person in front of her and looked at the middle-aged man in gorgeous clothes with a cold face.
Looking at the young man in purple clothes in front of him, the middle-aged man swallowed his saliva and turned pale.
Ah Qi had no time to give him, so she directly raised the magic sword Thousand Blades.
Whoosh!
"Wait a minute..."
The middle-aged man looked horrified, looking at the cold blade getting closer and closer to him, his pupils suddenly shrank, and he wanted to say something to stop it.
However, before he could finish his words, the blade had already scratched his neck.
Poof!
Blood splattered everywhere, and his body fell to the ground helplessly.
Ah Qi stepped over the body of the person in front of her, walked slowly to the front of the carriage, and opened the door curtain.
"ah!"
I saw a woman holding an infant baby tightly and looking at her with fear.
This made Ah Qi want to lift the blade in her hand, but stopped.
The woman looked at the young man in purple clothes in front of her and turned pale.
She knew that she had been put on a bounty list, and the strength of the assassin in front of her was terrifying. She was afraid that she would not be able to escape.
Looking at the young man in purple clothes in front of her, a look of struggle appeared on the woman's pale face.
After a moment, a look of determination flashed across her face, she looked at the purple-clothed boy in front of her, and said in a pleading tone: "Kill me and let my child go, okay?"
The baby in her arms began to cry continuously, as if he had realized his fate.
Aqi looked at her pleading eyes and fell into silence.
The woman in front of him is exactly the target of his mission this time.
But the baby in her arms was not on the reward list.
Looking at the crying baby in the woman's arms, Ah Qi had for the first time a little doubt about her belief in being an assassin.
He thought of what Lu Jiu had said to him.
"No matter what, protect yourself..."
He thought about the woman who died in front of him again, and there was a trace of emotion in his heart that should be called "regret".
Perhaps, without all of this happening, Ah Qi would still be that cold-blooded assassin.
Should I swing my butcher knife at the helpless mother and son to defend my code as a shadow assassin?
He was shaken.
After a while, Aqi closed her eyes.
He picked up the magic sword Thousand Blades in his hand.
Zheng……
A look of despair appeared in the woman's eyes, and she hugged the child in her arms helplessly.
A soft sound.
The blood-stained magic sword was slowly inserted back into the scabbard.
Aqi opened her eyes, looked at the mother and son in front of her, and said in a cold tone: "Get out of here quickly."
His voice was crisp and clear as always, with a thick accent.
call out!
Before the woman in front of her could react, a cold sword light flew towards her!
The woman's pupils shrank and she closed her eyes subconsciously, waiting for death to come.
A cold light flashed in Aqi's eyes, and she raised the unsheathed magic sword Thousand Blades in her hand.
Ding--
A crisp sound surrounded the surroundings.
The flying knife was instantly thrown away by the magic knife Thousand Blades in Aqi's hand, and fell to the ground helplessly.
Ah Qi looked cold and turned her head to look at the person coming.
"Huh! If I hadn't saved them, you would have let them go!"
"As a shadow assassin, he actually has the kindness of a woman..."
"It's really unqualified!"
A tall man holding several throwing knives said in a cold tone.
Behind him, there were dozens of elite warriors holding mechanical crossbows, each sharp arrow pointed at Ah Qi!
These mother and son are the wives and children of his enemy!
He was also responsible for the mission of the Shadow Assassin Organization. In other words, Aqi's employer is him!
If he hadn't been concerned about the "rules" in this area that did not bring harm to his family, he would not have paid a high price to do a job within the Shadow Assassin Organization!
Although the assassins of the Shadow Assassin Organization are very reliable and have a good reputation in their area.
But just to be on the safe side, he still followed the whereabouts of the mother and son!
I originally thought that the reliable Shadow Assassin would complete his mission neatly.
But the shadow assassin in front of him actually wanted to let the mother and son in front of him go at the last moment!
This makes him intolerable!
The shadow assassin he hired at a high price actually did this?
"Kill this mother and son, and you can continue to be a shadow assassin!"
"Otherwise, I will tell your leader!"
He said in a threatening tone.
He knew very well that Ah Qi in front of him was very powerful in combat.
If it were a head-on confrontation, I'm afraid I wouldn't be an opponent.
So he could only use the name of Shadow Assassin to suppress him.
Ah Qi didn't say anything after hearing this, and looked at him calmly.
Only then did the woman behind him react.
She realized that Aqi had let her go, but was threatened by the enemy in front of her.
Thinking of this, she sighed and said to Ah Qi with tears in her eyes: "Sir, kill me!"
She hugged the child, stood up and bowed deeply towards Ah Qi.
The tall man opposite saw this and sneered: "Don't forget, you are a shadow assassin!"
Seeing this, Ah Qi ignored him and turned her head to look at the woman without changing her expression.
"This is the only mission I've ever failed."
After saying this, Ah Qi turned around and killed the tall man behind him!
He is a shadow assassin for sure!
But before that, he is Ah Qi first!
This may be the only mission that Aqi failed!
When the tall man saw Aqi coming towards him, his hair stood on end, and he was shocked: "Damn it! You kid is breaking the rules! Don't you want to be an assassin?!"
Aqi's face was indifferent.
In his eyes, everything in front of him was dead.
When the tall man saw this, his face turned pale, and he took a few steps back uncontrollably. His face was horrified, and he yelled at the top of his lungs: "Kill him! Don't let him come over!"
However, this is in vain!
The purple-clothed assassin held a magic knife and charged into the crowd with a cold expression!
At this moment, he was like a messenger from hell, constantly harvesting the lives of people around him!
Crossbow arrows can't stop him at all!
Every time Ah Qi swings his sword, someone will die!
However, before, he killed for the mission.
This time, he was killing for himself!
The woman behind her was stunned when she heard Aqi's words.
It wasn't until she saw the purple figure rushing towards the tall man opposite without hesitation that she realized what she was doing.
She pursed her lips tightly, tears falling, and looked closely at Aqi's back, as if she wanted to carve it into her mind.
After thoroughly remembering Ah Qi's face in her mind, she turned around and left without looking back.
Looking at the still crying child in her arms, her tears fell, but a smile appeared on her face.
