Bai Li stared at Feng Jiuyan's smooth killing movements with his mouth wide open, "Just kill him like that? Aren't you afraid that he will spread the news that your father is not dead back to the capital?"
Feng Jiuyan paused for a moment while wiping the dagger, raised his eyes to look at Bai Li, and sneered, "A coward like Meng Liang who is greedy for life and power, how could he let go of the opportunity to make merit? I'm afraid he has already sent a message back to the capital to tell me that my father is not dead, so why should I keep him alive?"
"As expected of General Zhenyuan's daughter!" Bai Li silently gave Feng Jiuyan a thumbs up.
The assassin watched in horror as Meng Liang died in front of him. His body trembled uncontrollably, his crotch gradually became wet, and a smell of urine filled the air. His face was as pale as paper, his lips trembled, and he kept begging for mercy:
"Lady, lady, please spare me! I have told you everything I know. Please spare me. I have old parents and young children to take care of. I have a family to support. Wuuwuwu——"
Feng Jiuyan looked at him coldly, with a disdainful smile on her face. "Why do you use other people's lives to support your family's lives?" Her voice was cold and ruthless, "Don't worry, I won't kill you."
When the assassin heard Feng Jiuyan's words, he heaved a sigh of relief and a look of joy appeared on his face. However, before he could be happy for too long, he suddenly felt a piercing pain in his internal organs, as if millions of ants were gnawing at his body.
His neck seemed to be strangled, he couldn't breathe, and his face became increasingly blue and purple.
Then, he spat out a large mouthful of black blood uncontrollably, and his body collapsed to the ground. He stared with his eyes wide open, filled with fear and confusion, stretched out his hands and struggled to crawl towards Feng Jiuyan. "You, didn't you say you wouldn't kill me?" His voice was weak and hoarse, full of despair.
Feng Jiuyan looked at him with a sly smile on her face. "Yes, I really didn't kill you. You just had an effect of the poison. What's wrong?" There was a hint of sarcasm in her voice.
"You!" The assassin looked at Feng Jiuyan angrily, wanting to say something, but he could no longer make a sound. His body kept twitching, and finally stopped moving, and he died.
Everyone present felt a chill down their spines when they saw Feng Jiuyan smiling but performing a fatal action with his hands. They were secretly thankful that they were not Feng Jiuyan's enemy, otherwise, they didn't know how they would die.
Yan Ci's mouth corners were always slightly raised, and he watched Feng Jiuyan's every move with a smile in his eyes. His eyes were full of doting that he himself did not even notice.
Feng Jiuyan turned his gaze to Yanci, and Yanci quickly adjusted his expression, trying to act serious and stern.
"I have something to tell you!" Feng Jiuyan's eyes were full of seriousness, and she stared at Yan Ci closely.
Yan Ci signaled to his men and made a hand gesture. The man in black and Bai Li quickly bowed and saluted in unison.
Afterwards, they quickly dispersed to different places like a gust of wind, performing light skills and disappearing from the spot in the blink of an eye, as if they had never appeared.
"Just say whatever you want to say. They are keeping watch nearby, so no one can eavesdrop." Yan Ci's voice was low and powerful, his eyes revealing confidence and composure.
"I want to cooperate with you." Feng Jiuyan looked directly at Yan Ci and said seriously.
Yan Ci had a smile on his face, and his deep and magnetic voice sounded, "Oh? Why?"
Feng Jiuyan paused for a moment and continued, "I think you have probably guessed it. Our family was hunted down by the men sent by Mr. Mo, and my father and mother were also attacked by a group of assassins on their way back to Beijing from the border.
Interestingly, those assassins had wolf totem patterns on their wrists.
Feng Jiuyan stared at Yan Ci closely, her eyes full of expectation. She knew that Yan Ci had been tracking down the mastermind behind the assassinations, and the clues in her hands might be exactly what Yan Ci needed.
"The person you want to investigate is also my enemy." Feng Jiuyan's voice was firm, "In that case, why don't we work together? Together, we can find out the mastermind behind Mr. Mo. I'll take my revenge and give my family a peaceful life, and you do your thing!"
Feng Jiuyan took a deep breath and continued, "I guess I may have something you want. As long as you are willing to cooperate, I can tell you everything I know. How about it? Do you want to work together?"
Feng Jiuyan's words were full of sincerity, and she hoped Yan Ci would accept her proposal. She knew that it would be difficult for her to fight against the forces behind Mr. Mo alone.
But if they can cooperate with Yan Ci, then they will have a greater chance of winning.
Yan Ci's eyes moved slightly, and he looked deeply at Feng Jiuyan, and said straightforwardly, "Okay, deal. But you have to accompany me to find out the news, how about that?"
As he spoke, Yan Ci slowly stretched out his hand.
Feng Jiuyan was filled with doubts when she saw this. She thought to herself, Yan Ci has so many experts under him, why would he need her help?
Although she was full of doubts, Feng Jiuyan still stretched out her hand and shook Yan Ci's hand tightly. "Deal!" Her tone was firm and powerful.
The corners of Yan Ci's mouth rose slightly, revealing an imperceptible smile, which went straight to his eyes, like the warmest sunshine in spring.
Soon, Feng Jiuyan understood why Yan Ci wanted to investigate the information with her.
Yan Ci bent his index finger and put it into his mouth. His cheeks bulged slightly, and then a loud whistle broke the silence of the night sky.
The man in black and Bai Li heard the whistle and rushed out of the woods like lightning.
Yan Ci looked at them and said slowly, "Bai Li, send someone to spread the news that the Black Feather Order is in the hands of a middle-aged man, and that he has appeared in Longmen Town."
Longmen Town? Feng Jiuyan was startled when he heard the name.
This small town is located in the opposite direction of Youzhou.
This town is just in the opposite direction of Youzhou.
Yan Ci was arriving in Youzhou for her mother and father to attract the attention of the assassins!
This small town is located in the opposite direction of Youzhou.
Yan Ci did this obviously to attract the attention of the assassins so that her parents could arrive in Youzhou safely.
Thinking of this, Feng Jiuyan felt a warm current in his heart and was filled with gratitude towards Yan Ci.
"Yes, Master!" Bai Li clasped his hands together and answered respectfully.
