Liu Zhen’er and Chen Yu were stunned.

Qi Yao said, “He’s Master’s favorite disciple. Master treats him as his own and didn’t even plant a heart guide on him. Master taught him everything he learned in his life, hoping that he could inherit his mantle in the future. However, he’s unwilling to be an assassin. In order to leave the Assassin Alliance, he didn’t hesitate to cripple his martial arts.”

Liu Zhen’er stammered, “He… clearly has martial arts…”

Otherwise, it was impossible for him to sneak into the Assassin Alliance without anyone noticing.

Qi Yao said, “That’s because Master couldn’t bear to. He injured him and let him go. He warned him not to return for the rest of his life. Ever since then, Master planted a Heart Guide in every disciple.”

Liu Zhen’er said, “Is it to prevent us from abandoning Master like him?”

Qi Yao sighed. “I don’t know. I can’t guess Master’s thoughts.”

Chen Yu asked suspiciously, “I don’t think he’s old. Why have I never seen or heard of him?”

Qi Yao recalled, “In the first few years when Master took you in as his disciples, he didn’t bring you back to the Assassin Alliance. At that time, I was the only one around. Actually, I had just been brought to the Assassin Alliance by Master. I was out of place and received a lot of care from him.”

Thinking of something, Chen Yu looked at Qi Yao and said, “Did you take care of the most unsociable Rakshasa because a senior brother once took care of you like that?”

Qi Yao did not deny it. “After he left, Master gave everyone a gag order. No one dared to mention him again, and I became the Eldest Senior Brother. However, I know that the tattoo of the first disciple is different. Master has never changed the tattoo on my arm. In Master’s heart, he has never forgotten him.”

In the sleeping hall, Baili Chen recounted his experiences in the past few years.

Jiang Guanchao’s gaze became colder. “So you’ve been in the Wei family all these years.”

Wei Ting continued to butter up to him. “Uncle Jiang, we’re really fated!”

Jiang Guanchao said angrily, “Shut up!”

Wei Ting obediently shut up.

Jiang Guanchao looked at Baili Chen coldly. “Are you also here to lobby on behalf of the Hundred Flowers Palace?”

Baili Chen met his sharp gaze and said softly, “I encountered a storm at sea back then. Fortunately, Lord Wu An saved me. I owe the Wei family a favor and can’t let anything happen to the Wei family.”

A cold glint flashed across Jiang Guanchao’s eyes again. “So… you returned to Thousand Mountains Island for the sake of the Wei family? Do you still remember that I warned you not to set foot on Thousand Mountains Island again in your life? Otherwise, I’ll kill you every time I see you!”

Baili Chen said seriously, “My life is Master’s. After I complete the mission, there’s no need for Master to do anything. I’ll come to the Assassin Alliance to return my life to Master.”

–

At the entrance of the Assassin Alliance, Wei Liulang and Jing Yi were squatting on the ground and drawing circles.

Senior Brother Qian Yao faced Ning Rufeng and Thousand-faced Langjun.

To be precise, he was confronting Thousand-faced Langjun.

Ning Rufeng was there to paper over things.

He said earnestly, “That’s enough. Seventh Senior Brother, Fourth Senior Brother and Fifth Senior Sister have left. Let’s not fight anymore.”

Thousand-faced Langjun gritted his teeth and said, “Those who trespass the Assassin Alliance will be killed without mercy!”

Ning Rufeng sighed and limped to the side. “I can’t take it anymore. If you want to fight, do it yourself.”

The Thousand-faced Langjun was speechless.

Chen Yu’s martial arts were above Thousand-faced Langjun’s. Even he had lost to Senior Brother Qian Yao, so Thousand-faced Langjun naturally had no chance of winning.

Otherwise, why would Wei Liulang and Jing Yi be so free to pick their feet on the ground… Uh, no, draw circles?

Wei Ting, Baili Chen, and Ghostfear came out.

Qi Yao and You Ming came out at the same time.

You Ming’s expression was very ugly. He said to Ghostfear, “I’ll let you off this time. The next time we meet will be your death!”

Ghostfear couldn’t be bothered with him.

“Eh?” Jing Yi was surprised. “When did your Wei family’s secret guard follow us? Where’s Ling Yun?”

Ghostfear was not too surprised by Baili Chen’s appearance. Little Seven had already mentioned it to him.

However, Wei Ting did not tell Wei Liulang.

Wei Liulang was dumbfounded. “Baili Chen? What’s going on?”

Bai Lichen said, “Let’s talk on the way.”

“Ling Yun is inside,” Wei Ting answered Jing Yi first before looking at Wei Liulang. “Sixth Brother, let’s hurry back to the Hundred Flowers Palace.”

“No, what’s going on?” Wei Liulang was at a loss.

Qi Yao looked at Baili Chen deeply with a complicated expression.

Baili Chen only looked at him before turning to leave.

“Let’s go, Sixth Brother. Jing Yi, follow me.”

“Oh.”

Baby Jing followed.

You Ming asked unhappily, “Eldest Senior Brother, are you really going to let them go?”

Qi Yao looked at Bai Lichen’s back. “We’ll let them go for the time being. The Young Palace Lord of the Hundred Flowers Palace will stay as a hostage. They’ll come back.”

You Ming said coldly, “That’s best. That sacrificial soldier is mine!”

“Suit yourself.”

With that, Qi Yao turned around and left.

–

On the way down the mountain, Wei Ting told him what had happened in Jiang Guangchao’s room.

Steward Chang suggested staying with Ling Yun.

“So that’s what happened… Wait, there seem to be many things…”

Shocking news came one after another. Wei Liulang didn’t know which one to start with.

Firstly, Xiahou Yi’s assassination plan had failed. Jiang Guanchao had killed the assassin almost instantly. He was clearly still injured, so it could be seen how powerful he was.

Secondly, there was Baili Chen’s relationship with the Assassin Alliance.

At first, everyone suspected him, but because the tattoo on his arm was different from Su Xuan’s, everyone ruled out his identity as someone from the Assassin Alliance.

After going around in circles, not only was he from the Assassin Alliance, but he was also Jiang Guanchao’s first disciple.

“You’ve been hiding your strength for so many years in the Wei family…”

Wei Liulang muttered.

“Not really,” Baili Chen said. “Half of my martial arts were crippled by Master. My injuries were serious, and it took me a long time to slowly recover.”

Wei Liulang muttered, “With Jiang Guanchao’s temper, it’s indeed benevolent of him not to kill you.”

Qian Yao sighed. “Unfortunately, the plan didn’t succeed.”

The original plan was to invite Jiang Guanchao to testify that Ling Yun was the heir proposed by Xiahou Qing.

With his prestige, no one would suspect that the document Wei Ting forged was fake.

Wei Ting said, “But as long as he’s alive, Xiahou Yi won’t be able to obtain the huge power of the Assassin Alliance.”

Qian Yao nodded. “That’s the only way forward now.”

He looked at the gradually darkening sky. “I’ve been out for a day and a night. I wonder how the Hundred Flowers Palace is.”

–

At the Heavenly Jade Hall, Yun Shuang stood in the howling wind with a cold expression.

Her clothes were mottled with blood. There was her blood and that man’s.

The man’s name was Poison Dragon, and he was one of Xiahou Yi’s four trusted subordinates.

In order to cultivate an evil technique, he had broken his left hand and attached an iron hook.

It was this hook that had pierced the throats of countless experts.

The backs of Yun Shuang’s hands were dripping with blood. The hook had pierced through her bones and was an inch away from breaking her tendons.
