The murderous intent in the man made Madam Mo tremble all over. A cold chill rose from her back, making her clothes soaked in an instant.
The people from the Seven Killing Sect that she had met in Qingyun City before were far less terrifying than the one in Liuyun County...
That powerful aura far surpassed hers, and his cultivation might have... reached the Xuanwu realm!
"You, what do you want?"
"The previous 100,000 is the money they paid to buy their lives. If you want to kill Lou Qianxue, raise the price!"
"What?" Madam Mo screamed, "You guys didn't complete the task, why should I raise the price?"
"If you don't want to add it, get out!" The masked man was extremely domineering: "If you continue to make trouble here, don't blame me for being rude."
The powerful aura and murderous intent around him made Madam Mo break out in a cold sweat. She glared at the man with hatred and fear, but she was unwilling to leave after all: "How much do you want to increase it to?"
"Five hundred thousand taels of silver."
"Five... five hundred thousand taels! It's only worth a second-grade pill. Is that bitch's life so valuable?" Madam Mo shouted in dissatisfaction.
The man said coldly: "Get lost!"
Madam Mo's chest was heaving with anger, but she was still rational. She thought about her son who died in vain and gritted her teeth, "Five hundred thousand, sure! But, it's better not to make any mistakes this time!"
"If the intelligence you provided was not inaccurate, the previous assassination mission would have been successful long ago." The man said coldly: "Remember, there is no one we in the Seven Killing Sect cannot kill!"
Inside the county magistrate’s mansion.
Jiang Suying finally met her long-lost daughter Lou Xingchen.
"Xingchen." Jiang Suying hesitated: "How have you been doing in Liuyun County during this period?"
Lou Xingchen's eyes were filled with pride, and he smiled. "Mother, the county governor introduced me to Master Zhu, one of the eight princes of the Amaterasu Dynasty. Master Zhu is very pleased with his daughter and even promised her marriage. Now, even the county governor's office doesn't dare to ask for my "Mountain and River Sword Art". After the county competition, I will go to the imperial city to follow Master Zhu."
As she spoke, her delicate eyebrows and eyes shone with strong self-confidence: "After I arrive at the Imperial City, I will work hard to cultivate and become a superior person... If I have the opportunity to meet someone more outstanding, even that Mr. Zhu... will only be a stepping stone for me!"
"This... Do you still remember that little bitch Lou Qianxue?" Jiang Suying couldn't help but talk about it.
Hearing this name, Lou Xingchen's good mood was instantly ruined.
She could not forget that it was Lou Qianxue who snatched her position as the eldest daughter of the City Lord's Mansion, forcing her to hide outside like an illegitimate daughter and then serve Lou Qianxue like a slave for six whole years.
She, Lou Xingchen, was born to be a proud daughter of heaven, but because of Lou Qianxue, she was buried for several years. How could she not feel resentful? How could she not hate him
Her expression suddenly darkened, and she did not hide her displeasure at all: "When I left the City Lord's Mansion, didn't I tell you to drive her out of the Mansion? Why, didn't you do it?"
Because of his relationship with Master Zhu, the eighth prince of the Amaterasu Dynasty, Lou Xingchen couldn't help but sound tough and aggressive when speaking to his mother Jiang Suying.
"It was almost successful, but that old man suddenly came out and protected her. She is still the eldest daughter of the City Lord's Mansion now."
Lou Xingchen's eyes were cold: "Forget it, since that old guy wants to protect her, let him do it. With my current status, I don't care about the status of the eldest lady of the City Lord's Mansion."
"But, Xingchen, the key is that the little bitch is now very different from before. She is very powerful. I am afraid that she will do something to you..."
