Volume 2 + Chapter 108: A Good Solution
Thousand Kills’ face was suddenly stepped on, and by none other than a silver-haired dragon loli.
In this world, no matter who stepped on like this, they wouldn’t be happy, right?
It was an outright insult!
“What do you want to do!” Thousand Kills shouted.
But she had no way to resist at all. Her hands and feet were all restrained, and she could only obediently accept it.
“I told you, I’m giving you another chance, a chance to live.”
Xia Yi had no intention of moving her foot away at all. She looked down from above and looked at the assassin who tried to assassinate her, with obvious disdain and contempt in her eyes.
If Serra saw this scene, she would definitely feel that Xia Yi and the Queen had the exact same look.
“Didn’t you promise that if I told you the information about my employer, you would let me go… Ugh!”
“Let you go? When did I promise that? Stop fantasizing about things that don’t exist. I said before, this is what you voluntarily provided. I didn’t promise you anything, nor did I agree to spare your life.”
“Mu Guang, you tricked me!”
Thousand Kills really couldn’t accept it. How could this seemingly harmless and silly loli be so scheming and cunning!
“I’m helping you, Thousand Kills. Whether you survive or not, you have already fallen from the altar and are no longer the number one assassin with a 1000% success rate.”
“No longer… 1000%?”
Thousand Kills’ pupils trembled.
In the end, she had always been an assassin and losing the face she had created with her own hands was indeed a heavy blow to her.
“However, Thousand Kills, there is a very good solution to return to the peak of 1000%.”
“What is it?!” Thousand Kills was very concerned.
She no longer cared that she was still being stepped on.
Seeing that she took the bait, Xia Yi narrowed her eyes and slowed down her speech, “It’s very simple. As long as you go back and kill your employer, then this mission will be forcibly canceled. Without a mission, it’s not a failure.”
“Eh?”
Thousand Kills was stunned.
“You… what did you say?”
“I’m telling you the truth. As long as you can eliminate the Elvin family, without an employer, where is the mission? Since there is no mission, how can there be failure?”
“This!!”
Thousand Kills was shocked by Xia Yi’s logic.
She was now confused and didn’t know how to refute.
“This is the opportunity I’m giving you, Thousand Kills.”
“This goes against my professional ethics…”
Thousand Kills had been an assassin for so many years and had seen targets try to persuade her. But basically, they all said they were willing to pay a higher price than her employer…
But she had refused them all.
This was the first time she encountered such a persuasive reason.
“Oh, I see. You’re so willing to sacrifice yourself for the Elvin family, then I’ll fulfill your wish, it’s not impossible.”
“No, no!! Why should I die for the Elvin family!!” Thousand Kills realized this point.
“Let me ask you one thing, Thousand Kills. Who do you think is more foolish, us or the Elvin family?”
“That’s obviously—”
Thousand Kills was about to say that Xia Yi’s side daring to provoke the emerging nobility was simply courting death.
But thinking carefully, was it really… the case?
Why was this seemingly weak silver-haired loli able to conquer the top gang of Corolle, the Hechi Gang, in an extremely short time?
Moreover, the heir of the Cavendish family was also accompanying her, and despite having unfathomable strength, she was obedient to her.
As well as her abnormal ability…
Who was really foolish?
“The Elvin family.” Thousand Kills voiced her thoughts.
“Very good.”
Xia Yi moved her foot away from Thousand Kills’ face. This action was equivalent to her recognition.
Afterwards, she also removed all the shackles on Thousand Kills’ body.
Thousand Kills stood up and stared at Xia Yi, feeling a little lost.
“Do you have any questions? Now, I can answer one question for you.”
“What exactly do you want to do?” Thousand Kills asked.
The answer Xia Yi gave next was crucial, it would determine whether she would decide to cooperate.
Xia Yi smiled, “Of course it’s…”
…
The door was opened.
Jiye saw Xia Yi and Thousand Kills walking out together.
And strangely, the restraints on Thousand Kills’ body were gone.
It should have been a very bad situation, but the assassin looked deep in thought, without any intention of making a dangerous move.
“Miss Mu Guang, she!?” Jiye asked in confusion.
“Let her go.”
Xia Yi made a gesture, indicating that Jiye should not do anything.
Serra also used her eyes.
Jiye could only nod.
Thousand Kills glanced at Xia Yi with a complex look in her eyes, and then her figure blurred. The window in the corridor was pushed open, and she left using excellent movement techniques.
“Miss Mu Guang, is it really okay to let Thousand Kills go?”
“I think it should be fine.” Xia Yi said.
…
Elvin Manor.
“Thousand Kills, what’s going on?”
Angry, Oba slammed his hand on the table, questioning the assassin before him.
“Why did your assassination fail? You are Corolle’s number one assassin, our Elvin family spent a fortune to hire you!”
“Sorry, Young Master Oba, the Hechi Gang suddenly intervened, causing me to fail. Their intervention was an unexpected situation outside the information provided by your family.”
“You’re even blaming it on us!?”
“Young Master Oba, don’t be anxious. It’s common for assassinations to temporarily fail due to problems with the information.”
Thousand Kills opened her palm, and inside was a strand of silver hair stained with blood.
“An assassination doesn’t necessarily have to succeed in one go. My appearance has already thrown them into complete panic, which will expose huge flaws. Next time, she definitely has no chance of surviving.”
Oba hesitated for a while. The Hechi Gang was indeed an unexpected variable that wasn’t taken into account, and it was understandable to make mistakes.
Thousand Kills was already the most professional. Seeing what she brought back, it showed that the assassination was really just a little short. There wouldn’t be anyone more outstanding than her.
“Very well! Thousand Kills, if you fail again next time, don’t blame our Elvin family for being rude!!”
…
Under the escort of the Hechi Gang, Xia Yi and Serra returned to the Cavendish family’s manor.
“Princess, Serra, how did it go today?”
Lucius didn’t go out to fool around today, but stayed at home honestly, which surprised Serra.
“Do you even need to ask? With the Princess personally taking action, she definitely made incredible achievements.” Serra replied.
“Really? Tell me quickly!”
“It’s like this…”
Serra explained the process to her father.
However, she downplayed her role as the former leader of the Hechi Gang… and kept emphasizing how Xia Yi’s actions conquered the leader of the Hechi Gang.
Lucius kept praising, making Xia Yi very embarrassed.
“As expected, the Princess is amazing. You are indeed the only daughter of Her Majesty the Queen and the heir to the Royal Dragon Family!”
“Hehehe, of course… Ahem, it’s nothing.”
Xia Yi hurriedly controlled her emotions. Just now, she almost forgot to manage her image.
Her perfect princess persona must be well maintained in front of the head of the Cavendish family. He was an important witness.
“Princess, you are too modest.”
“Compared to these, head of the Cavendish family,” Xia Yi said seriously, “there’s a very important matter in the current plan that you must handle.”
