Chapter 731: Control_1
Now incapable of using mana, the Heaven-Mending Stone was Su Chengyu’s last line of defense for survival. If it weren’t for the stone, he would have fled from the Stinger Sect’s assassin a long time ago.
"I must be damned for eight lifetimes to choose to follow you. I didn’t gain much benefit, but instead became your unpaid bodyguard. You better seek the Northern Abyss Black Stone quickly. If you encounter danger next time, I won’t care whether you live or die."
The Heaven-Mending Stone complained bitterly, feeling like a huge victim. It was a formidable Heaven-Mending Divine Stone, a major player in the Immortal World, surely it deserved some respect?
The assassin from the Stinger Sect had been defeated by the Heaven-Mending Stone. Even if he didn’t die, he would be seriously injured. Su Chengyu approached the ruins slowly. The rubble moving over Duyi stirred, but he was unable to struggle out of the ruins on his own, indicating severe injuries.
With a stomp of Su Chengyu’s right foot, the bricks and stones suppressing Duyi were shattered, revealing a disheveled and bloodied Duyi. He was truly incapacitated at this point and was fully at Su Chengyu’s mercy.
Su Chengyu squatted down and asked directly: "Who’s the employer? Tell me, and I’ll let you live. If you’re stubborn, I’ll snap your neck."
Duyi never expected the mission to fail. The Stinger Sect always investigated the target before deploying an assassin with significantly greater power to ensure the mission’s success.
"I don’t know. I just take orders. The information about the employer is not within my control."
Of course, Duyi didn’t want to die. Assassins were cold-blooded in killing others but not daredevils who didn’t care about their own lives. However, he really couldn’t answer Su Chengyu’s question.
"Then you don’t need to live."
Su Chengyu didn’t want to waste words. Since he couldn’t obtain valuable information, Duyi’s life was worthless. With these words, Su Chengyu prepared to kill Duyi with a slap.
