Chapter 236: It is Time (1)
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Painful screams filled the area. Ye Jiao’s lips twitched when she saw the result of her senior brother’s new research. If she was not wrong, he should have bought a few kilograms of those herbs. If he used half of them for research and the rest was made into this medicine....
Yep, she would be better off if she didn’t antagonise him for the time being. Just a drop of poison might spell the death of her.
It seemed that Lu Wan had managed to find some lead. Thinking of the books in the library, Ye Jiao was sure that Lu Wan had already spent a long time just studying them. When it comes to poison, he would spend every effort he could possibly muster to make sure that he would be able to learn them all as fast as possible.
"Do not attack people randomly. I might be at a lower rank, but it doesn’t mean that I don’t know any method to fight back," Lu Wan said coldly.
The other men gave way for him. Their eyes were filled with fear because they knew that the one in front of them was not a normal assassin. Rather, he was someone who knew how to fully make a living in this world.
After Lu Wan walked out safely, Ye Jiao also got out of the restaurant. This time, the group of men directly showed their hostility. One of them directly drew his weapon and swung it to Ye Jiao’s direction.
Swish! Slash!
Utilizing her Eon Energy to the movements skill that she had, Ye Jiao directly appeared behind the man. Her dagger moved at high speed and directly cut through the man’s flesh and bones. The resistance he had from the Eon Energy layer around his body turned to be futile in front of Ye Jiao’s attack.
"You should pick a different opponent," Ye Jiao said coldly as the men looked at her in fear.
Her appearance was no different from an ordinary young girl, but the moment she moved, no one could follow her movements. They could only hope that they were not her target because it would surely spell their death.
At the same time, their eyes were filled with disbelief. How come a young girl at such a tender age has such power?
They wanted to cry.
The two children who looked no different than ordinary children that could be found on the street were actually very ruthless. They were truly wolf in sheep’s clothing, ah!
Ye Jiao walked away from the place without any intention to bother with those people anymore. Even though she was annoyed at their actions, she doesn’t know them. If she attacked them and their friends bore a grudge, it would be bad for her. For now, she could justify her action as a form of self-defense.
As for enacting a killing blow?
People like them who only knew how to vent their anger on other people deserved it. If she didn’t do it, the one who died would be her.
"What do you plan to do now?" Lu Wan asked as he followed behind Ye Jiao. He was yawning hard because he felt really tired after his continuous study and research. The library was very useful for him.
"I don’t know."
"Don’t get into trouble."
"Don’t worry. I’m not you, Senior Brother Yu."
Lu Wan: "..." are you saying that if it’s me, I’ll get into trouble in just a matter of seconds?
Looking at the face that Lu Wan made, Ye Jiao merely shrugged. When she was staying with Lu Wan, she had encountered several instances where they were dragged into many kinds of problems. His way of doing things was simply too barbaric.
"Go and have some rest. You look half-dead."
"Yeah, yeah, that’s my plan."
Lu Wan waved his hand and yawned again as he staggered on his way back. Looking at his figure, Ye Jiao’s lips twitched a bit. In the next second, she saw Lu Wan trying to straighten his body near a wall. Several people tried to harass him, but soon after, all she could hear was painful screams from several meters away.
’Well, he’ll be fine.’
Those who dared to get close to him and took advantage of him would surely die within a few seconds with his poison. Even though Lu Wan was dead tired, he still knew how to use his poison.
And this time, he wouldn’t hesitate to keep using them because he was not in the condition to fight with his chain and blade.
Ye Jiao no longer paid any intention to Lu Wan and directly headed to the hall for assassins. There were a lot of people inside, they were also waiting to accept the mission and all. Right now, it was bustling with people who were busy here and there.
"Is there any new mission?" Ye Jiao casually asked the receptionist.
The man nodded. "There’s a new mission from someone in the Chen Kingdom. He’s going to pay a lot for anyone who can kill Wei Mi."
Wei Mi?
Blinking her eyes in disbelief, Ye Jiao looked at the receptionist. She tilted her head. "Isn’t Wei Mi only a young girl at the age of 11?"
"Yes. She has just formed her core a few days ago and it seems that someone who sees her as a threat posted a mission," the receptionist shrugged. He understood why it came to this, though. Those who could form their core at the mere age of 11 were not ordinary people. They were all very talented.
However, the reward was not that big because she was merely a budding seedling. The time needed for her to grow up was still a lot, so only some people tried to put the mission.
However, the reward didn’t seem to be that proportional considering the number of guards Wei Family had.
The receptionist noticed that Ye Jiao fell silent. He tried to ask, "Are you interested in taking the mission?"
