Chapter 1423: The Two Elders Visit

The man in black was stunned. He did not expect the other party to be so powerful. He easily broke his ninja knife with just two fingers.

However, just as Jiang Guanchao counterattacked, his figure strangely disappeared again.

Jiang Guanchao looked around coldly without any panic.

He calmly picked up the wine glass on the stone table and weighed it in his hand. He closed his eyes and suddenly shot into the depths of the night in the southeast.

With a muffled groan, a figure fell from the tall tree.

A trace of surprise flashed across Yun Shuang’s eyes.

Jiang Guanchao’s martial arts… impressed her again.

The two of them arrived at the place where the person fell. One of the man’s hamstrings had been cut by Jiang Guanchao’s cup, and he could no longer use the Japanese Secret Technique.

“Who sent you?”

Jiang Guanchao asked from above.

The man said nothing.

Yun Shuang wanted to pinch his chin.

Jiang Guanchao stepped on it and glanced in casually. “No tongue.”

Yun Shuang said, “Leave him alive and hand him over to Little Ting for interrogation tomorrow.”

Jiang Guanchao retracted his foot and turned to leave without a word.

Yun Shuang went to tap his acupoint.

The next second, his body stiffened and he died.

Yun Shuang frowned.

Jiang Guanchao said without looking back, “The Japanese assassin won’t stay alive.”

Yun Shuang called a guard from the residence and asked him to move the corpse down.

Xiaoxiao had said that corpses could talk.

Perhaps they could find clues from the corpse.

Yun Shuang followed Jiang Guanchao. “Where is this assassin from? I’ve never heard of them.”

Jiang Guanchao said, “There’s a country east of Thousand Mountains Island. That’s where the assassin came from.”

Yun Shuang asked, “You’ve been there?”

As Jiang Guanchao walked forward, he replied, “When I was more than ten years old, I traveled to Japan with Master and encountered a wave of Japanese assassins. Master’s martial arts were already at the peak in Thousand Mountain Island. Who knew that he would lose to the Japanese assassins in the end?”

Yun Shuang paused. “Is that why you joined the Assassin Alliance?”

Jiang Guanchao didn’t deny it. “I’ve seen how powerful an assassin is. If I want to be the strongest person, I can only become an assassin.”

Jiang Guanchao was a legend of Thousand Mountain Island and the Assassin Alliance. Yun Shuang had heard a lot about him.

Nie Yangshan was his master, and Granny Ghost was his mistress.

He possessed the two secret techniques of the Jin family and the Nie family—the Rakshasa Secret Technique and the Heart Guide.

He was the only assassin who did not join the Assassin Alliance as a disciple.

The old Alliance Master only thought that he was a killing tool, but he had forcefully defeated more than ten of the old Alliance Master’s personal disciples and sat in the position of the Assassin Alliance Master.

“Did you go to Japan again?”

Yun Shuang asked.

With her understanding of Jiang Guanchao, he would definitely go and fight that person.

Jiang Guanchao said, “Yes. Unfortunately, the assassin from Japan who defeated my master back then was already dead. I left and never went to Japan again.”

Yun Shuang said thoughtfully, “In that case, there’s no grudge between the Japanese Assassin and the Assassin Alliance.”

The two people who fought back then had already passed away, not to mention that the Japanese assassin had won back then. There was really no need for the Japanese to seek revenge on Nie Yangshan’s disciple many years later.

When the two of them arrived at the entrance of the Peony Pavilion, they saw the Saintess squatting on the ground and eating candied hawthorn.

Yun Shuang asked, “Cheng Xin, was that the person you found just now?”

The Saintess bit on the candied hawthorn and nodded.

Yun Shuang asked, “Where did you find him?”

The Saintess pointed at Su Xiaoxiao and Wei Ting’s courtyard.

Yun Shuang muttered, “Was he passing by there, or was his target Xiaoxiao and Little Ting?”

Unable to figure it out, Yun Shuang stopped thinking about it for the time being and said to the Saintess, “Go back and tell Xiaoxiao that we’re fine.”

The Saintess thought for a moment and stretched out her finger. “Three sticks of candied hawthorn.”

Yun Shuang was speechless.

The Saintess took the IOU Yun Shuang had left and returned to the courtyard.

Jiang Guanchao also planned to return to his courtyard.

Yun Shuang suddenly stopped him. “Wait a moment.”

Jiang Guanchao turned around. “Is there anything else?”

Yun Shuang’s gaze landed on his muscular back muscles, which were slightly blackened. “The blade is poisonous.”

She returned to the room and brought over the antidote pills and powder.

People in the martial world did not care about trifles.

Yun Shuang said to him, “Turn around.”

Jiang Guanchao frowned. “It’s just a small injury. I’m not so delicate.”

Yun Shuang unplugged the bottle. “I’m afraid you’ll be poisoned. Xiaobao will be poisoned tomorrow.”

Jiang Guanchao thought of that gluttonous little ball and asked Yun Shuang to apply medicine for him.

Yun Shuang noticed two strange scars on his back, as if they had been bitten by a ferocious beast and cut by sharp edges, penetrating his entire well-defined back.

“Can anyone hurt you like this?” Yun Shuang asked seriously.

Facing a top-notch body filled with hormones, Yun Shuang was not concerned about how good it felt to the touch, but whose martial arts were so high.

“It happened when I was young.”

Jiang Guanchao turned around and met Yun Shuang’s gaze.

“Palace Lord Yun.”

“Your weakness… is here.”

Yun Shuang’s fair fingertips poked his tight abs.

Jiang Guanchao was speechless.

–

Near dawn.

Wei Xiaobao, who had been playing all night, finally fell asleep.

Her head was in Su Xiaoxiao’s arms, her chubby feet touching Wei Ting’s handsome face.

She looked like she wanted to stay away from him.

Wei Ting was both angry and amused as he took her small feet away.

She retorted again.

Today, her little feet were going against her father’s face.

Wei Ting snorted. “Your mother is mine!”

Wei Xiaobao wanted to say, “Mother is clearly Xiaobao’s!”

–

After dawn, Su Xiaoxiao and Wei Ting went to examine the assassin’s corpse.

He did not have a token or any totem emblem on him. Even the material of his clothes could be bought anywhere in the capital.

However, Wei Ting still found traces under his shoes.

“It’s a flower fertilizer made of plant ash. Recently, my mother built a small flowerbed in the West Court and sprinkled this kind of fertilizer. He came from the West Court. The West Court is remote and doesn’t have many guards on duty. It’s not easy to discover him if he infiltrated the mansion from there. In addition, when he was chased by Cheng Xin, he chose to escape to Peony Pavilion. You have to know that a few months ago, Peony Pavilion was an empty courtyard, and the courtyard next door was uninhabited.”

Su Xiaoxiao was enlightened. “He wanted to kill Cheng Xin there so that he wouldn’t attract attention. He just didn’t expect to fall into the hands of Mother Palace Lord and Alliance Master Jiang.”

Wei Ting nodded. “That’s right.”

Yun Shuang, Wei Qing, Ghostfear, and Wei Liulang were also there.

They had learned from Yun Shuang that this person was a Japanese assassin.

Wei Qing said, “In that case, this assassin is very familiar with the former Wei family.”

Wei Liulang’s expression turned serious. “Is there a traitor in the Wei family again?”

Wei Qing said, “Impossible.”

Wei Liulang continued, “Then… have we provoked the assassins from Japan?”

The few of them looked at Ghostfear.

When it came to the Wei family’s grudges, his eldest brother was the source.

Ghostfear shook his head. “As far as I know, no.”

Su Xiaoxiao was puzzled. “That’s strange. Why would a Japanese assassin infiltrate for no reason?”

Wei Liulang thought of something and said seriously, “Ah! I know! It’s Xiahou Yi’s remnant troops! It’s not strange for Xiahou Yi to collude with the pirates and the Japanese assassins!”

Yun Shuang did not think so. “Japan is thousands of miles away. Only Nie Yangshan and Jiang Guanchao in the entire Thousand Mountains Island have been there. If Xiahou Yi had colluded with the Japanese Assassins, he would have already sent them to deal with the Assassin Alliance during the last battle on the island.”

Wei Liulang scratched his head and said, “Why don’t we ask Jiang Guanchao?”

“Miss! Miss!”

Xing’er ran in excitedly. “Elder Qiu and Granny Nie are here!”
