Chapter 522: You Must Be Crazy to Want to Make Money
“Gold Face, you look pretty good in that mask, but aren’t you afraid that it’s not good for your skin if you keep wearing it?”
“And you guys? Why are you all wearing black clothes? You don’t deserve to have such an awesome ident.i.ty as members of the League of a.s.sa.s.sins! You guys should wear a big red outfit. That would be so cool! Moreover, it didn’t matter if they got blood on them! Killing two birds with one stone! You guys should consider my suggestion!”
“Gold Face, do you guys know that I’m a true disciple of the Linghua sect? Aren’t you afraid of offending the Linghua sect? Isn’t it too cheap to do this for just a mere 100 million low-grade spirit stones?!”
“Also, why don’t you guys take me to the Linghua sect to exchange for some spirit stones! I’m so smart and cute, and Master Xuanyuan likes me very much. Maybe he’ll even use one billion low-grade spirit stones to pay my ransom!”
“Actually, why don’t you guys change professions?! It must be dangerous being an a.s.sa.s.sin?! Why don’t you try kidnapping?! Think about it, you can kidnap a victim several times! Isn’t it a lot better than killing her?!”
..
“Shut her mouth!” The Man in the Golden Mask couldn’t stand the sound of the endless chattering anymore! It was the first time he had encountered such a strange target!
“Wait! Don’t muzzle me! Don’t muzzle me! At worst, I won’t say anything. What would you guys like to hear? Why don’t I tell you guys about the matters of the Linghua sect? Aren’t you guys curious? Alright, I know that you guys are very well-informed, but there are inevitably some rumors that you don’t know about! For example, the matter of West Peak’s Peak Master Yuan having an illegitimate daughter!”
“What? There’s such a thing? Why haven’t we heard of it? !” Gold Face was shocked. This was the first time he had heard of this news.
“Tch! How could such a shameful thing be known to others?! Do you guys want to hear more? I know a lot of such news… It’s all about the five peak masters and the elders. For example, who has an illegitimate child, who is in a relations.h.i.+p with whom, who is gay with…”
“Wait! What does gay mean?” Gold Face asked in confusion.
“It means that two men are in love. By the way, do you usually spend spirit stones to buy information about your League of a.s.sa.s.sins?” Yun Chujiu suddenly changed the topic.
Jin Mian nodded. “Most of it is bought with money. Why are you asking about this?”
“Of course it’s business! I have a lot of information! I also know a lot about that old b*stard Du Guyi from our Linghua sect. Are you interested?” Yun Chujiu said as she observed Gold Face’s eyes.
Gold Face’s eyes did not show anything other than surprise. Yun Chujiu’s heart skipped a beat. Could it be that it was that old b*stard Du Guyi that hired them to kill her? Who else wanted to kill her? Moreover, with such a huge sum of money, an average person would not be able to afford such a high price.
“Business? What business?” Gold Face asked in confusion.
“You guys spent spirit stones to buy information about me!” Yun Chujiu said as if it was a matter of fact!
“Humph! You’re a dead woman walking, and you still want to earn spirit stones? You’re really greedy!” Gold Face was so angry that he was amused!
Strange things happened every year, and this year, there were a lot of them! He had been an a.s.sa.s.sin for so many years, but this was the first time he had met such a weirdo! As a hostage, she actually talked business with them! You must be crazy to want to make money in this situation?!
“Sigh, things are unpredictable in this world. What if I escape death this time? I’ll earn more spirit stones, and then I’ll hire you guys to kill that b.a.s.t.a.r.d who wants to kill me. Hmm, your killing league doesn’t accept all kinds of business, right? What kind of business do you turn down?”
