Chapter 194: The Assassins’ Plan
The leader thought for a long time and said, "We may not be able to kill her. But we should be able to torture her."
Hearing this, the other assassins all looked at their leader. The assassin sitting next to the leader said, "Lao Da, what do you mean is–"
He didn’t finish his words, but everyone present knew what he wanted to say. The leader sneered and whispered, "Since she looks down on us, it means she didn’t put up a defense against us. The journey back to the imperial capital city is long, and no one knows what will happen along the way."
As soon as these words came out, the leader’s eyes flashed with a cold, murderous intent. The youngest assassin saw this and asked, "Lao Da, didn’t you say we couldn’t kill her?"
The leader looked at him and said, "I have observed her since we brought her out of Yunshan Village. I found that as long as her life is not in danger, those strange things will not happen. So, what we have to do is to make sure that when we take action, she will not die. As long as she is still breathing, nothing will happen to us."
Hearing this, the youngest assassin sneered, "That is good. Then... Should we do it now?"
The leader shook his head and said, "Now is not the right time. Let’s wait until nighttime to let her have a taste of our skills. Tonight, we will let her know the consequences of looking down on Xue Lang Pavilion."
As soon as these words came out, everyone sneered and began to discuss how to make Liang Jiaying’s life worse than death. At the same time, Duan Yixin, Xuan Ruiquan, and Lan Zhuoyu arrived in Yunshan Village and were a little surprised to see the villagers collecting soil.
Lan Zhuoyu was silent for a moment before asking, "Miss Duan, is there no food in your village?"
