"If I had known your identity before, I might have done so!" Yang Feilong fell silent for a moment, then sighed, "But you did me a great favor just now, it's no exaggeration to say you saved us. How could I repay kindness with enmity?"
The assassin Luo Feixue.
Even with Yang Feilong's vivid imagination, he had never thought that Luo Feixue's identity would be the assassin who had tried to kill him!
Now, he understood why Luo Feixue, despite her cultivation, had let him save her a few days ago. It was because she wanted to get close and seize an opportunity to assassinate him!
After all, she was an assassin!
What wouldn't one do for money?
But why hadn't she made a move before? Yang Feilong speculated that either the time was too short, or she lacked absolute confidence in killing him and was looking for the perfect moment!
Luo Feixue looked at Yang Feilong with a smile. Although her identity was exposed, there was no panic on her face. Was it because she believed Yang Feilong wouldn't harm a woman, or did she have confidence in her escape?
Alright, if Yang Feilong wanted to kill her, she couldn't escape. While her cultivation was powerful and she possessed many skills, escaping would be difficult. Many of her methods were useless against Yang Feilong. Her ultimate trump card was poison. The poisons she concocted could incapacitate even those at the peak of the Earth Martial realm and pose a threat to the Heaven Martial realm. However, they were useless against Yang Feilong, as she had already tested them.
"You mean you'll let me go?" Luo Feixue asked with a smile. "You must know that I approached you with the intention of killing you. As for those two thugs, they were just part of a show. Of course, they were unaware; they were merely lustful beasts!"
Yes, to ensure her plan was foolproof, she had devised many methods and conducted thorough investigations. She knew what kind of person Yang Feilong was: kind-hearted. It was incredibly easy to approach someone like him.
"What's the point of not letting you go?" Yang Feilong sighed, then looked at Luo Feixue. "Speaking of which, we have no deep enmity between us. Why do you insist on killing me? How about I pay you to cancel the assassination?"
"Hehehe!" Luo Feixue laughed. "To be honest, I originally intended to kill you. After all, you caused me quite a bit of trouble last time."
Yang Feilong admitted that, but Luo Feixue had also injured his friend, Mia's second brother, at that time.
Hearing the conversation between Yang Feilong and Luo Feixue, Li Yufei's expression was one of extreme shock.
To be honest, she was still in a daze. She never imagined that her comrade in arms would actually be in a relationship of assassin and target.
Someone had hired an assassin to kill her man, and that assassin was Luo Feixue.
"However, canceling the assassination is easy, but my success rate would decrease! How much are you willing to pay?" Luo Feixue asked with a playful smile as Yang Feilong remained silent, seemingly considering the possibility of canceling the assassination.
"Whatever they offered, I'll offer double," Yang Feilong said, blinking.
To be honest, he now had a strong urge to exterminate the Lin family.
Hearing Yang Feilong's words, Luo Feixue blinked. She understood that Yang Feilong couldn't bring himself to harm her, which was why he chose this method.
"Will you really give me double the money? You know, the employer offered ten billion in wealth for me to assassinate you!" Luo Feixue said with a half-smile, looking at Yang Feilong.
"..." Yang Feilong knew that hiring an assassin would be expensive, but he hadn't expected to be worth ten billion. He could roughly guess that the ten billion in wealth Luo Feixue mentioned was likely spirit stones or other treasures.
Double would be twenty billion!
It wasn't that Yang Feilong couldn't afford it. After killing the two individuals just now, he had obtained another storage ring from that James Bond. Coupled with the storage ring obtained from killing Xu Cong not long ago, a single storage ring, even without considering the treasures within, could be worth twenty billion in wealth.
"I can give you twenty billion, but I'd like to ask, why do you insist on being an assassin?" Yang Feilong looked at Luo Feixue.
"You're interested in me?" Luo Feixue blinked.
Li Yufei: "..."
Yang Feilong: "..."
"Besides being an assassin, I don't know how to do anything else!" Luo Feixue said with a giggle, seeing Yang Feilong's speechless expression.
"I can hire you," Yang Feilong said after thinking for a moment.
Luo Feixue's strength was considerable. She could kill the sixth-level early-stage esper, Jialisiting, head-on without even reaching the Earth Martial realm. This demonstrated her formidable combat power. And this wasn't even her specialty; assassination was. With her skills, even the masters like James Bond and Koizumi Mi might not be able to escape.
If such a person could be recruited, the benefits would be immense!
"Oh? Boss Yang wants to keep me as his pet canary?" Luo Feixue teased.
Yang Feilong: "..."
Li Yufei looked at Yang Feilong with displeasure. She had a feeling that Yang Feilong genuinely had such intentions.
"Let's not joke," Yang Feilong said helplessly.
"No," Luo Feixue pondered for a moment, then slowly shook her head.
"I can help you cure the poison you have on you," Yang Feilong suddenly said.
"Hmm?" Luo Feixue's eyes narrowed as she looked at Yang Feilong.
"Although you are a master of poisons, there's a poison on you. That poison probably wasn't self-administered but was given to you by someone else! I can cure it!" Yang Feilong said in a deep voice.
"Can you really?" Luo Feixue's breathing suddenly became a little rapid. She had been joking earlier. She hadn't wanted to leave the Yellow Springs Gate, but she couldn't. If she could leave, she would have done so long ago.
"You should know my ability to detoxify. If I had some heavenly treasures now, I could refine a detoxification pill for you and resolve the poison in your body immediately," Yang Feilong said earnestly.
"Forget it!" Luo Feixue shook her head after thinking.
"Do you want to continue being controlled by your assassin organization?" Yang Feilong frowned, his face filled with confusion.
"The organization I belong to is not as simple as you think. If I leave, I will be hunted down and killed by them in no time!" Luo Feixue sighed.
One's life is not their own in the martial world. She was a six-star ace assassin in the Yellow Springs Gate and knew some of its power. It would be as easy for them to kill her as it would be to crush an ant.
Therefore, although she wanted to be cured, she dared not. If she were cured, not leaving the organization would inevitably be discovered. If she left, the higher-ups of the Yellow Springs Gate might not notice for a while, but eventually, if they couldn't contact her, it would be trouble.
