Chapter 953 - Converted into Devotees
Liu Wuxie asked many questions, but the assassins knew too little to be of any real help.
"Do you know where the headquarters of the Black Plume Pavilion is?" Liu Wuxie asked.
"We don't. Our rank is too low," said Lu Liang, one of the assassins Liu Wuxie had questioned earlier.
The woman from the Heavenly Spirit Celestial Academy was named Ruan Ying. The remaining two were called He Hai'an and Jiang Nan.
Strangely, these four hadn't known each other before the mission. They had only come together after receiving their orders.
"Are there any other assassins besides the four of you?" Liu Wuxie asked.
He had already predicted they wouldn't know the location of the headquarters or the mastermind's identity.
"We don't know. The one who issued the mission never shares more than necessary. Like this time, they only gave each of us the other three's information and the location to rendezvous in the sacred ground to kill a specific target," Lu Liang replied.
When Lu Liang received the mission, it contained only basic information about Ruan Ying, He Hai'an, and Jiang Nan—just enough for them to locate one another and regroup quickly upon entering the sacred ground.
"All of you are quite talented. Why did you choose to become assassins for the Black Plume Pavilion?" Liu Wuxie asked. He was intrigued by the Black Plume Pavilion's operation and its ability to maintain control over its assassins.
Liu Wuxie couldn't understand why they would choose to become assassins for the Black Plume Pavilion just for treasures or resources. Take Ruan Ying, for example. She lacked nothing as a prestigious disciple of the Heavenly Spirit Celestial Academy. With enough contributions, she could exchange points for anything she desired.
