Hearing Li Feng's shout, the cloaked assassins tensed for a moment.
Their killing intent surged as they turned toward the sudden intruder, remaining on high alert.
But the moment they sensed Li Feng's cultivation which was only at the Middle Stage of Foundation Establishment, the tension in their bodies visibly relaxed.
A few of them even let out cold sneers.
However, inwardly they couldn't help but frown.
...Because the envoy had arrived much faster than they had expected.
They exchanged silent glances, unsure of what to do next.
It wasn't that they feared him, but they didn't dare kill an envoy from a major sect like the Azure Moon Sect.
Killing him might be easy, but the consequences would be far beyond what they were paid for.
As an envoy carried connections and would definitely be linked to the sect's Elders.
Offending a major sect was not part of their job description.
