Chapter 1423: The Two Elders Visit
Editor: Atlas Studios
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.
