Chapter 767: Since You Are Going to Die, You Might as Well Die Here
Lady Seventeen could not help but say, “We know that it will not be easy to attack the Lookout Pavilion, but we have the entire Tree Hall. If we make arrangements, we can delay Bo Muyi and Su Cha. It’s not impossible to save the Hall Master.”
“So what? How are you going to deal with the rest?”
Qi He smiled sarcastically. “What the Three Alliances do is our business, but this is now a legal society we’re living in. The Bo family is one of the most highly regarded families in the country. The last time something happened, an official who’s a member of the Killing Alliance said that the higher-ups were very unhappy. If we do it again, it will no longer be our private matter. If the country takes action, do you think our Killing Alliance can stop them?”
“We will not sacrifice the Killing Alliance for the sake of a hall master.”
His explanation made Lady Seventeen understand.
She sighed silently. No matter what the Three Alliances did, it was private.
Such an organization was not allowed to exist in the new society. The higher-ups only tolerated it to preserve their culture.
In the end, things had become like this. If things really became chaotic, the originally declining martial arts world might really disappear.
No matter how strong her martial arts were, she was still afraid of the army!
To be able to survive until now, they had made a pact with the other two Alliances. The forces between them were complicated. The Bo family was clearly related to the Imperial Court. Otherwise, they would not have become a neutral family.
Helpless, Lady Seventeen could only push open the door and leave. An elite member of Tree Hall stood outside the door and asked in a deep voice, “What did the Alliance Master say?”
Lady Seventeen shook her head. The person’s pupils constricted. “The Alliance Master doesn’t care?”
Lady Seventeen sighed. “The Alliance Master said that we can’t clash with the Bo family for the sake of your Hall Master.”
“That’s our Hall Master! It’s just the Bo family!”
That person was filled with hatred and could not control his impulse. He pushed the door and entered, but Lady Seventeen did not stop him.
The innocent little girl in the room was still swaying her legs and blowing bubbles. When she saw the a.s.sa.s.sin from Tree Hall coming in, she did not even blink.
Qi He looked at the person gloomily.
The a.s.sa.s.sin looked at Greya. “Alliance Master, you have to take care of the Hall Master’s matter. Otherwise, how can our Tree Hall maintain its foothold in the martial world?”
Greya paused and slowed down. She looked at the a.s.sa.s.sin and smiled brightly. “Are you ready?”
The a.s.sa.s.sin was stunned. Although this smile made him feel a little scared, he quickly nodded. “Our brothers are ready. If we act together, with the help of the people from the other halls, we might be able to save them.”
“Okay.”
Greya sighed helplessly and opened her palm. “Disobedient people are so troublesome.”
As soon as she finished speaking, the a.s.sa.s.sin in front of her suddenly narrowed his eyes. He stared with his eyes wide open, but his body fell straight down.
After a while, a black worm slowly crawled out of his mouth. It was very fast. It climbed down the a.s.sa.s.sin’s body and quickly disappeared into the sofa.
When Lady Seventeen saw this scene from the door, she almost got scared out of her wits.
Compared to Su Cha’s unfathomable depth, this method of using worms to kill people made Lady Seventeen’s scalp tingle.
One might not even know how one died in the end.
Greya looked at the a.s.sa.s.sin’s corpse innocently and smiled. “Since you’re going to die anyway, you might as well die here so that you won’t cause trouble for me.”
