Path Of The Lilies

Chapter 251

Qi Huan and Ye Jiao looked at one another.

They forgot about Lu Wan, but it didn"t mean that they would want compromise just because of him. They too were already impatient to leave Four Kingdoms because of various reasons.

Staying here any longer was clearly out of the questions.

"Don"t worry, I"m sure that you can reach rank 3 soon, Senior Brother Lu," Ye Jiao smiled encouragingly.

"You just need to continue to train hard."

Lu Wan"s lips twitched. He wanted to scream. "It"s easy for you to say that because you already pa.s.sed the requirement, but how about me?"

However, he ended up closing his mouth because he knew that complaining wouldn"t help him to advance. One way or another, he had to find a way to help him advance faster to reach rank 3 or he would be left behind by his senior brother and junior sister.

Qi Huan pa.s.sed a glance to Lu Wan. "Maybe you would want to partic.i.p.ate in the compet.i.tion in Bao Fu Organization? I heard that there are some interesting rewards that can help you gain more Eon Energy."

"Ah, right, the compet.i.tion," Ye Jiao recalled that she heard about it just a few days ago. She has been so busy consolidating her power that she forgot to check on them again. Probably she would have the time to check after they have finished their discussion in this place.

Lu Wan yawned. "I was told that it"s only held every several years and it"ll happen in around a week"s time from now. They"re going to pit the geniuses in the organization against one another to see who"s the best. Of course, they"re giving some generous rewards to those who managed to win first place."

"What reward?"

"They hadn"t leaked out the content, maybe soon."

"Oh," Ye Jiao tilted her head. "How about the compet.i.tion itself? What"ll be tested there?"

"a.s.sa.s.sination," Lu Wan turned his head to look at Ye Jiao weirdly. "What are you hoping from a.s.sa.s.sins" organization?���"

"I mean the detail."

"I don"t know. They"re not going to leak out the content before the designated time, but it should be an interesting compet.i.tion," Lu Wan shrugged. Rather than competing, it would be better if he found a way to train more efficiently. He didn"t want to lag behind the other two.

Qi Huan flicked his glance to their master. He smiled. "But it doesn"t seem that Master is going to let us partic.i.p.ate."

"Eh?"

"Master?"

The other two turned their head to look at Zhan Jing. Right now, there was a complicated expression on the man"s face. It was as if he was facing a difficult decision that could affect his life.

Sensing the children"s gaze, he took out a scroll. "Here"s your next mission."

"…"

Master, did you just seriously give us another mission right now?

They were just talking about partic.i.p.ating in the compet.i.tion and yet their master gave them another mission. Knowing their master, they have the feeling that they wouldn"t be able to finish it quickly because of how hard it was.


Qi Huan took the scroll and unfurled it. He read the content before arching his eyebrows. "Master, are you serious?"

"What"s the content?"

"Let me see!"

Target: Minister w.a.n.g in Chen Kingdom and his entire household (Eon Energy Master Rank 3)

Minister w.a.n.g is one of the most powerful ministers in Chen Kingdom. He has reached rank 3 a long time ago and estimated to be at the peak but without any chance to reach rank 4. He has full control of...

Note: There are already 10 groups dispatched with none of them returned. Based on the information they sent before their death, the governor has several guards with the strength of Eon Energy Master Rank 3, hundreds of Eon Energy Master Rank 2 and thousands of Eon Energy Master Rank 1. Most of them are soldiers because of his close relations.h.i.+p with the Imperial Family.

As they read the description for the mission, the three of them became speechless. Did their master always have to pick the hardest mission for them to take? It felt as if he wished for them to die in the mission given by how he always increased the difficulties by several folds.

"This Minister w.a.n.g is also a genius. He"s only twenty something this year," Qi Huan rubbed his forehead. It wouldn"t be easy to contend against someone who has more talent and power. After all, it meant they had to fight harder.

"Right…"

Lu Wan read the content once again as he felt that the name was awfully familiar. w.a.n.g was quite a common surname because there were several families with this surname in Chen Kingdom. However, this man felt particularly familiar for him as if he had met with him before.

"Also, did a.s.sa.s.sinating his entire household means that we have to kill the servants too?" Qi Huan turned his head to look at their master.

Zhan Jing nodded his head. "Yes."

"Why is it the entire household and not just him?" Ye Jiao tilted her head.

"That"s because the force that"s inside his house is quite dangerous. They"re seen as a threat to the Bao Fu Organization," Zhan Jing pointed to the scroll. "The secret soldiers of Chen Kingdom are located in that residence."

The moment she heard that, Ye Jiao"s body froze momentarily. She looked at the scroll once more as her eyes glinted with ruthlessness. The reason why the imperial family has been so strong was because of their secret soldiers. If she could eliminate one of them, their power would weaken considerably.

"Also, this family is quite famous for monopolizing the market," Zhan Jing added. "They"re always suppressing the lower merchants."

"So this is a way to distribute the economy in Chen Kingdom," Qi Huan arched his eyebrows. He didn"t know much about Chen Kingdom, but he had heard some rumors here and there. "No wonder that this family gained a lot of hate in this kingdom."

Minister.

Merchant family.

Lu Wan"s head seemed to ring a bell when he heard those phrases. He slowly turned his head to look at Zhan Jing. "Master, this minister is my sister"s fiancé, right?"

Zhan Jing returned the boy"s gaze as he nodded slowly. "Yes."
