"My lord, please show mercy! I am..."
The Yi clan assassin spoke, but his hands and feet were anything but clean.
Something hidden in his sleeve slipped into his palm, just as the assassin from the Lu family next door shattered the frozen statue, causing a commotion...
Swish!!
He suddenly made his move!
"Now is the time!"
An assassin understands assassins.
To be sent on such an important mission by the family, they've long discarded thoughts of life and death. They seek only one thing: the completion of the mission!
So, the assassin from the Lu family never doubted for a moment that the kneeling Yi clan assassin would surrender.
And the timing of this strike was executed to perfection.
Yet, the Yi clan assassin still failed.
The Lu family assassin, who had just escaped the frozen statue, couldn't see clearly.
