Chapter 192 - 188 Background
The assassination incident in Seven Star Alley stirred up quite a commotion.
A Condensed Core Realm Sword Cultivator assassin—hiring someone of this caliber to risk their life must have come at a hefty price. Who could Zuo Tu have offended?
Moreover, Zuo Tu has two Demons by his side, both transformed into beautiful women, especially Yue Qingqiu, who was completely unnoticeable in daily life.
How could such a woman possibly be a Demon?
This Zuo Tu certainly has peculiar tastes.
The next day, Liu Ji’s injuries improved somewhat, but they still affected her. It would probably take some more time to fully recover.
If not for having absorbed the Jiao Long Pill earlier, she might not have been able to withstand a strike from a Condensed Core Realm Sword Cultivator.
For Liu Ji, it was like a brush with death.
"How is the wound?" In the room, Li Fan asked Liu Ji.
"No major issues, don’t worry about me. But that assassin—we must get to the bottom of their identity," Liu Ji replied from her bed. Without clarity, she would remain uneasy.
"Hmm." Li Fan nodded. This was the first time Liu Ji, after following him, had suffered such severe injuries.
