The Elite Assassin Becomes a Flat and Ugly Nerd!

âBecause Iâve only just been promoted to a silver-level assassin, I donât know much about this matter. However, there are still some rumors circulating in the organization.â
Liu Qing roughly recalled and organized his thoughts before raising his thin lips. âThe Third and Sixth Elders of the organization didnât manage to be saved after the explosion and died. There were also a few stewards, and even the lives of some of the close friends of Sect Master Ji were fixed on that day.â
However, Shan Yue did not care about these people at all, because she was the one who detonated the explosion. The reason why they died with her was completely because these people were the ones who stabbed her in the back. âDoesnât Ji Chen suspect the reason and purpose of this explosion? What has happened to the organization that has suffered such casualties? Not only Ling Yue, but some elders and stewards have also died on the spot. Isnât this worth investigating?â
Shan Yue was very puzzled, but she did not expect this person in front of her, who was only a silver-level assassin, to give any accurate answers to these questions.
However, reality proved that Shan Yueâs guess was not wrong.
âThereâs only so much information circulating in the organization. They didnât give a specific explanation for such a serious matter in the end. Perhaps some people in high positions can learn more about the inside story, but someone like me doesnât have the qualifications.â
Liu Qing was very clear about his status. âHowever, thereâs one thing Iâm sure of. Because of this, Sect Master Ji Chen and Sect Master Ji Yun, who were originally not in the organization, rushed back to preside over the situation.â âDoes anyone know better than you?â
Shan Yue asked further, hoping to get her next goal from him. â1 mean those who really know the inside story, not hearsay like you.â
âAmong the people I know, I donât thinkââ Just as Liu Qing was about to say âsoâ, a name suddenly flashed across his mind. âThere is!â
Chang Ling said impatiently, âDo you have it or not? You just said no, but it only took a second for it to become yes again. Let me advise you. Youâd better tell the truth. Donât fool our President Shan.â
âOf course. Even my daughterâs life is completely under your control. Why should I dare to fool you? Even if I donât want to live, i have to consider my child.â
Liu Qingâs words were very sincere. âI have a friend called Mu Rong. Not long after the incident happened, he told me that he knew some inside information about the explosion. He said that he happened to hear it from Third Elderâs steward when he delivered the things. However, at that time, I was only thinking about myself and was completely uninterested in this matter, so 1 didnât listen.â
âMu Rong? 1 really donât remember this name.â
Shan Yue quickly searched for these two words in her mind, but no matter how hard she searched in the fragments of her memories, there was no trace.
However, this did not mean that she had gained nothing. She was very familiar with Third Elderâs steward, Zong Xing. Although she was doted on in the organization in her previous life, she could not be liked by everyone.
Zong Xing was a very typical example. She did not understand that she and Shan Yue were both girls. Be it looks or character, she was not inferior to Shan Yue. It was just that there was a difference in skills, but there was a world of difference between the two of them.
Zong Xing was very puzzled. Could it be that because Shan Yue was the last disciple of Sect Leader Ji Chen, she had special privileges that others did not?
Shan Yue could imagine with her eyes closed that when she found out that she and the Third Elder had lost their lives, she would definitely not be very sad. Instead, her happiness would take up more of her space.
An explosion had resolved two of her greatest worries. The Ling Yue she was jealous of had disappeared from the organization. Moreover, once the Third Elder died, this position would definitely be vacated, and the best candidate for the elder position would be Zong Xing, who was the Third Elderâs steward.
Such a good thing to have something fall into your lap was probably something that many people would never encounter in their lives.
âThatâs right, itâs him.â Liu Qingâs attitude was very firm. He confirmed again, âBut thatâs what he said. However, Iâm not sure what he knows..â
