Chapter 170 You will be my Xiao Wei from now on. Was it Zhou Yanqing who bribed you?
The next moment, Xiao Ying carried him back to the main hall, and the monk found that the contract in his body had not disappeared.
"Lingyun, let the four of them come in as well."
Xiao Ying let go of the monk and gave an order.
While Ling Yun was bringing the four killers in, Xiao Ying brought Chen Xinghai and the other three out as well. It was necessary to let them know what happened tonight.
Looking at the five extra strangers, Chen Xinghai and the other three were confused and curious. Xiao Ying then told them a brief account of what happened tonight, and they were all shocked after hearing it.
It turned out that someone came to assassinate them at a time they were unaware of, and they were all captured alive and signed a master-servant contract.
Mom is so awesome!
"So, they will be ours from now on?"
Chen Xingyun looked incredulous.
Suddenly there are five more people in the house, and they are five very powerful killers. It always feels very magical.
"Well, they will be our family's guards from now on."
Xiao Ying was quite satisfied and hoped that there would be more guards like this.
While the children were looking at the killers, the five killers were also secretly looking at the four young masters.
Among them, the cultivator was the most shocked. These four young masters were all at the second level of Qi Refining, and the youngest one was about to break through to the third level of Qi Refining.
He couldn't imagine what realm a young man like him would reach in the future when he was only at the third level of Qi Refining. He thought that he would at least be in the late stage of Qi Refining.
This family is so mysterious. They are just ordinary villagers in the mountain village, but they are actually full of hidden talents.
If we give them more time to grow, wouldn't a family of immortal cultivators emerge?
"Tell me your names first." Xiao Ying said.
The monk spoke first, his voice a little dull: "We don't have names, only numbers as code names. I am 21, representing the 21st Qi Refining Level 3."
The other four people's answers were similar, also using numbers as codes.
Xiao Yingcai then remembered the bronze medals. It seemed that the numbers on the medals were their names.
"Then choose yourselves a name. Follow my surname, Xiao. It's best to choose a single character so it's easy to remember. From now on, you will be my Xiao Wei."
The five of them were both happy and troubled. Who wouldn't want a proper name? But naming seemed a bit too difficult for them.
They had never been to school and were not very literate. After thinking for a long time, they could only come up with some words like "Shanshui Goudan Tiezhu Shuanzi", which they were too embarrassed to say out loud.
"Xinghe, how about you help them think about it?"
Seeing that they were scratching their heads anxiously and couldn't think of anything, Xiao Ying asked Chen Xinghe to get it.
Chen Xinghe pondered for a moment and said, "The Book of Changes says: 'Heaven's movement is vigorous, and the gentleman strives for self-improvement; Earth's state is gentle, and the gentleman carries all things with virtue.' You can choose from these two sentences."
The five of them looked at each other in bewilderment. What did this mean? What was heaven? What was earth? In the blink of an eye, they had forgotten everything.
Xiao Ying laughed and said helplessly, "You can call yourself Xiao Tian, Xiao Xing, Xiao Jian, Xiao Kun and Xiao De respectively."
"Thank you for the name, Master!"
The five people couldn't help but smile with joy. They finally had their own names and were no longer just a string of numbers.
Among them, the cultivator who was at the third level of Qi Refining was called Xiao Tian. He felt that his name was very domineering and was secretly happy that it was named after the sky.
"Okay, tell me about the organization you were loyal to before." Xiao Ying drew everyone's attention back.
The five people were obviously led by Xiao Tian, and the other four were looking at him.
So Xiao Tian said without hesitation: "Master, our previous organization was called the Dark Night Pavilion, the largest assassin organization in the Moon Country."
He explained the structure of the Dark Night Pavilion in detail.
"The Dark Night Pavilion has a Pavilion Master who is a cultivator in the late stage of Qi Refining. I don't know his specific level of cultivation. I have only seen him once in all the years I have been in the Pavilion."
"The Pavilion Master has three deputy Pavilion Masters under him. These three usually manage the entire Dark Night Pavilion. One of them is a cultivator at the sixth level of Qi Refining, and the other two are top martial artists."
"Then there are three levels of killers: gold, silver, and bronze. Gold killers are equivalent to the fifth level of Qi Refining. There aren't many of them, probably only about 20 or 30."
"Silver-level assassins are equivalent to the fourth level of Qi Refining, and there are at least one or two hundred of them."
"The majority are bronze-level assassins like us, equivalent to the third level of Qi Refining, at least a thousand of them."
The other four also nodded in agreement, but even bronze-medal killers like them had emerged from countless ordinary children.
When it comes to fighting, they may not be as good as the masters in the martial arts world, but when it comes to killing skills, those masters in the martial arts world are far inferior to them.
Chen Xinghai and the others were shocked when they heard this. They never expected that such an organization existed in the world.
Who on earth could have bribed such an organization to assassinate them?
The next moment, Xiao Ying asked, "Was it Zhou Yanqing who bribed you?"
Xiao Tian nodded: "I have read the relevant files. It is indeed a person named Zhou Yanqing, but I don't know any specific information about him."
"I know that." Xiao Ying's smile was a little cold. "He is the son of Zhou Hong, the Junior Secretary of the Dali Temple. He now serves as the Chief Secretary of the Dali Temple."
"Not long ago, they came to Yun'an County to overturn the case of their Zhou family's branch, and they intended to frame me. I tricked them severely, so I hold a grudge against them."
She didn't specify how she tricked the other party, but Xiao Tian and the others were stunned when they heard it.
Is their new master really just a peasant woman? She actually dared to go against the imperial officials. How audacious!
However, considering the other party's strength, it seems that they do have the confidence to do so.
Several people suddenly felt strange and complicated.
"Master, I'm afraid the other party won't let it go."
Xiao Tian frowned and repeated the rules of the Dark Night Pavilion.
If they fail to send back a message within the time limit, the cabinet will judge the mission as a failure and then send more powerful killers. Zhou Yanqing only needs to pay half the fee of the next batch of killers until the target of the mission is killed.
"So, in the end, it might alarm the three vice-pavilion masters."
They are masters of the sixth level of Qi Refining, and there are three of them in total.
Although the master has two ferocious beasts at the sixth level of Qi Refining, he is still missing one, isn't he?
"Then let them come. I can just expand the number of guards."
Unexpectedly, Xiao Ying was not afraid at all, but rather looked forward to it.
Originally, she wanted to take revenge immediately and give Zhou Yanqing a big gift, but now she has changed her mind and plans to lure a few more groups of killers over first.
Don’t miss out on the free trained guards.
"Madam, there are three deputy pavilion masters in total." Xiao Tian reminded again implicitly.
Xiao Ying smiled and glanced at him: "Don't worry, if they dare to come, they will never come back."
Who said she only has two ferocious beasts at the sixth level of Qi Refining?
Xiao Tian was stunned. His master was so confident. Did he have any trump card?
"If these three vice-pavilion masters also fail, will the pavilion master come as well?"
This is what Xiao Ying is most concerned about. People in the late stage of Qi Refining are indeed difficult to deal with.
Xiao Tian said with a strange look on his face, "Perhaps, but nothing like this has ever happened in the Dark Night Pavilion."
Xiao Ying seemed to be lost in thought, then asked, "How many cultivators are there in the Dark Night Pavilion?"
