The assassins never met such a situation before.
There were so many people and they looked as though they were looking for trouble. Whose side were they on?
The assassins didn’t know how powerful they were so they didn’t dare to make any moves.
“Her again?” Yue Gan’s junior brother looked as if he swallowed a whole bunch of flies. “She is everywhere. These past few days, I kept having the feeling that we were being followed. Is it her?”
“They are not here to help us. Everyone be careful.” Yue Gan instantly classified Ming Shu as an enemy.
Nie Shuang grabbed Yue Gan’s clothing and looked at Ming Shu in fear.
However, if you looked carefully, you would see the hatred brewing in her eyes.
“Don’t be afraid.” Yue Gan comforted her.
Ming Shu didn’t get any reply from the two parties and was bored. She found a place to sit down and took out her dried beef slices. “Continue your fight, I will not join you all.”
The disciples obediently squatted behind her and waited for the show to start.
The assassins: “…”
Yue Gan and his gang: “…”
Lunatic!
How can we continue fighting when you are squatting beside us with a whole bunch of people? Are you trying to sneak an attack on us?
The assassins didn’t want to give up this opportunity and ordered some people to watch over them while the rest of them continued attacking Yue Gan and Nie Shuang.
The sounds of weapons hitting each other echoed into the distance
“Leader, when are we going to make a sneak attack?” The disciples asked Ming Shu shamelessly.
“Why do we need to sneak attack?” Ming Shu was puzzled. “We are such a big clan. Why do we need to ambush anyone?”
“You are right. We do not need to sneak attack. When are we going to attack, then?” The disciples changed their words fluently.
The leader is always right.
Ming Shu gave an interesting smile. “Wait for a while longer. The show is quite nice.”
“Okay, Leader.”
The assassin that was watching over them: “…” Can you not treat me like air? I can hear everything!
Clank!
Yue Gan’s sword left his hand and an enemy attacked Yue Gan.
Nie Shuang suddenly flew over and blocked the attack for Yue Gan. The sharp blade stabbed into her shoulder and fresh blood gushed out, staining her clothes.
Yue Gan was stunned for a moment before he caught the falling body. “Miss Nie.”
“Leader, do we attack now?”
Ming Shu had not finished her dried beef slices so she didn’t want to make a move.
The disciples waited for a while. Yue Gan was protecting Nie Shuang and retreating. The assassins chased them relentlessly.
“Leader, let’s attack now. The bastards are running away.”
Ming Shu swallowed the last dried beef slice and stood up slowly. The assassin that was guarding against them immediately took out his weapon and looked at her with vigilance.
Ming Shu smiled brightly at the assassin.
The girl was beautiful. Her eyes were bright and gentle and warmed people up.
At that moment, flowers bloomed.
The assassin heard her gentle voice flow through the air. “Bring all of them back.”
…
Ming Shu took a tree branch and walked around Yue Gan and Nie Shuang. They were tied to a tree.
On the other side were the assassins. They were making muffled sounds.
The disciples bullied and scolded them and asked them to stop making noise. They were disturbing their leader.
Ming Shu stood in front of Nie Shuang and said clearly, “Miss Nie, are you still not going to tell me where the Five Treasures Bible is?”
“I don’t have it!” Nie Shuang said the same thing. Her face was pale from her injury and there was anger on it. “Why are you accusing me? I have not seen this Five Treasures Bible at all.”
Ming Shu pointed the tree branch at her nose. Nie Shuang shivered. She heard the girl in front of her laughing gently. “You know whether I am accusing you wrongly or not.”
Nie Shuang’s heart started pounding furiously. She knew that the Five Treasures Bible really was with her.
She gritted her teeth and continued denying it. “I don’t have the Five Treasures Bible. Even if you kill me, you will not get it.”
“This… Leader, Miss Nie doesn’t have the Five Treasures Bible. Why do you have to say that she has it? I am not sure what your motive is. May I ask what clan you’re from?”
Ming Shu glanced at Yue Gan and the disciples to cover his mouth.
Yue Gan: “…”
The assassins opposite: “…” Finally he is in the same situation as us . They felt so much better.
Ming Shu suddenly closed in on Nie Shuang. Nie Shuang could feel her breath on her face.
The girl’s eyes were filled with smiles. Besides that, there was no other emotion in her gaze.
“Miss Nie, let me remind you. If you don’t tell me now, everyone in your Half Moon Villa will be killed soon… I am not bluffing. When some people decide to be evil, they can do things that you would never dream of.”
“Don’t talk nonsense… I don’t have the Five Treasures Bible. You were the one who said that I have it and that’s why they hunt me. What do you want?” Nie Shuang almost broke down and shouted at Ming Shu.
“To scare you.” Ming Shu’s smile was glaring. “Are you angry? Be angry more often. You will become prettier.”
Nie Shuang: “…”
Lunatic!
Ming Shu tortured her for half a day, but Nie Shuang still denied it. She could only hang her up on the tree.
She then asked people to undress her.
Nie Shuang got seriously frightened this time. When she was left with only her undergarments, she broke down and cried. “It’s at Dingyun Mountain. Stop it. Stop it!”
Yue Gan was dumbfounded. Didn’t she say that she never heard of the Five Treasures Bible? Didn’t she say that she knew nothing about it?
Nie Shuang didn’t dare to look at Yue Gan.
She bit her lips and tears fell. There was grievance, there was anger, and there was hatred.
Ming Shu held her chin and pondered for a while. Where is Dingyun Mountain? Is there such a mountain?
She looked at the disciples.
They were confused too.
Ming Shu: “…” It was better for her to rely on pigs than them.
Is the fake female protagonist lying to me?
Ming Shu tied the rest of the people up and brought the crying Nie Shuang along to find Dingyun Mountain.
Nie Shuang was injured and almost died during the journey. Ming Shu had to take care and nurse her back to health to prevent her from dying.
If she dies now, what will happen to my Hatred Points?
The Dingyun Mountain that Nie Shuang was referring to was in the opposite direction of the Half Moon Villa. The people from the martial arts world would never think that she would retrace her steps with Nie Shuang, so no one chased them.
Nie Shuang observed Ming Shu for the entire journey. She also asked her some questions, but would always end up so angered by her that she wanted to vomit blood. In the end, she got nothing out of Ming Shu.
By the time they reached Dingyun Mountain, a few days had passed. Ming Shu didn’t know if this was Dingyun Mountain, but there was a temple and it was called Dingyun Temple.
However, it had been abandoned for many years.
Nie Shuang pointed to a statue of a god and said weakly, “I hid it behind there.”
The disciples rushed forward and felt behind the statue.
“Leader, there is nothing. She is lying!”
The disciples felt all around but there was nothing.
“Impossible!” Nie Shuang’s voice got louder. “I placed it there!”
She struggled as she ran over and felt inside. There was nothing at all. It was empty.
How can it be…
Nie Shuang looked at the girl that was walking toward her and felt fear. “I didn’t lie to you. I really hid it here.
“But it’s gone now.”
