The top assassin glanced at the token in Ji Fengming's hand, then looked at Ji Fengming incredulously, unable to react for a long time.
This is indeed the young master's waist token, but!
Rumor has it that their young master is an outstanding talent, dashing and debonair, and known as the most handsome man in the martial arts world.
The guy in front of me wasn't ugly, but he had a sallow face, thick eyebrows, and a big face, and he was definitely not the kind of "handsome man".
"What, are you trying to rebel? You don't even greet me when you see me, young master?" Ji Fengming was speechless at his slow-witted subordinates.
So stupid, no wonder he's still stuck in the middle management.
"Young...Young Master..." The top assassin was still somewhat uncertain: "Are you really the Young Master?"
"No, it's not me, but who in this godforsaken place can decipher your scribbled symbols?" Ji Fengming said impatiently, looking down on these guys. "Why did you leave the Central Plains and come to this godforsaken place?"
The top assassin believed him somewhat after hearing what he said, as their insignia changed frequently, and each branch had a different insignia.
If you weren't a high-ranking member of the sect or someone from the same sect, you definitely wouldn't recognize them.
"Young Master!" The group quickly greeted Ji Fengming.
After exchanging greetings, the top assassin said, "Young Master, don't you know? Recently, there have been many new missions within the sect, all of which involve assassinating high-ranking officials and wealthy individuals from the surrounding countries of Da Zhao. We came to Mang City precisely because we received the mission to assassinate a prince of the former Northern Kingdom."
"Assassinate high-ranking officials and wealthy individuals from the four neighboring countries surrounding the Great Zhao?" Ji Fengming found this strange.
Kyoto is currently in a state of turmoil, with the Emperor, Empress Dowager, Empress, and several princes all focused on his sister and brother-in-law. They have no time to engage in these international conspiracies.
Ji Fengming abandoned his somewhat nonchalant attitude: "Do you know what kind of people placed these orders?"
"Young Master, the sect's rules must not be revealed casually..."
Before the top assassin could finish speaking, Ji Fengming interrupted him with a sharp rap on the head: "Bullshit! I'm the young master of the Eastern Dragon Gate. You're talking to me about the rules of the sect?"
Top assassin: "..."
Several silver-ranked assassins: "..."
Yes, now we can be sure that the guy in front of us is indeed their young master.
His catchphrase, "Bullshit," is exactly the same as that of the legendary old sect leader!
"The employer didn't show up, but the clerk said that all the people who came to take on the mission had one thing in common: they were all dressed in black and masked, and they were extremely skilled," the top assassin said truthfully.
Dressed in black, masked.
Ji Fengming turned to look at Hei Xiao: "Xiao Chen, don't you think this looks familiar?"
The assassins: "?"
What are you familiar with?
Don't people who do shady things in the underworld all dress like this?
“But what is their purpose in doing this? Could it be that they have discovered you…” Black Owl shook his head again: “No, if they had really discovered your identities, there would be no need for them to make such a fuss. They could have just come for you directly. Could it be… Oh no!”
"What?!" Ji Fengming asked, completely bewildered, not knowing where Black Owl's clever thought process had gone.
Black Owl didn't bother explaining to Ji Fengming. He turned to the assassins and said, "You don't need to complete this mission. Go back immediately and tell the others who have already accepted missions to abandon them as well. Also, temporarily close all your mission reception points!"
