Chapter 171: Mistaken Identity Part 8

The city of Dis: 6

Inside a room where a single lamp illuminates the surrounding, a person wearing black clothes powerlessly lay on the floor. His body is already riddled with wounds and his meridian is already blocked. Upon waking up, the man slowly tried to adjust his vision as he carefully assesses his situation. He then looks at the empty room he is in and sighs deeply. He knows that because of their mistake in underestimating their opponents, all of the people under him were killed.

He was the leader of the assassin group sent by a powerful clan in the San kingdom; the clan that he belongs to is the Baio clan. The Biao clan is one of the ten most powerful clans in the San Kingdom. They have many infant soul realm cultivators as elders of the clan. But what makes them haughty and powerful is that one of the main daughters of the clan is a concubine of the current king. And she has already bear the king of San Kingdom a prince.

But one day, a young yet powerful cultivator arrives in the great city of San. Upon arriving, the young man showed his prowess by vanquishing some bandit groups from the mountains. This made the young man well-known and made one of the princesses take a fancy on him.

But later on, he discovers that the princess only like that him superficially and decided to play with him and his feelings. Later did the princess knew that the young man also has his own design for her. Because the first time he saw her, the young man already lusted for her beauty.

One fateful night, he drugged her and then raped her. The following day, the servants found the princess still unconscious on the bed and have traces of being ravage by someone. Because of this the king became furious and hunted the young cultivator after discovering the truth.

In their investigation, they found out that the man is called Shin Jiao and he is from a minor noble family of the neighboring kingdom of Wu.

It didn't take long for the assassin group and they were able to track down the young man's location. But he didn't surrender, instead, he furiously fought back even though the odds are against him. After a long and deadly battle, where they have lost three gold core realm cultivators, they finally wounded him severely. But the young man called Shin Jiao was still able to escape.

And after chasing after him, they found him being taken into this weird mortal city. As the proud leader of the assassin group, he thought that it is below him to fight against the mortals but this was his big mistake. As soon as he gave the command, his subordinates were immediately blasted to pieces by some powerful weapon. Luckily for him and two others, they were fast to activate their protection talisman.

But then everything is still for naught as the powerful weapons of the mortal broke the protection scroll and turn his two remaining subordinates into sieves. Even their golden core bodies could not withstand the blow from those weapons. Then suddenly a mortal man wearing unknown clothing attacked him. He was stunned to see a mortal wielding a great sword and his body is covered with unknown energy. His opponent is actually not his match, but he became careless and fell for a trap. The man threw a ball-like thingy towards him, and he uses his sword to slice the object. This made the object explode on his face. He can feel his body was pierced by multiple tiny objects, and then he lost consciousness.

"Where… where am I?" the leader of the assassin group asked in a hoarse voice.

In another room, a group of people are watching the man as he tried to prop himself up to sit on the monitor screen.

"I'll interrogate him." Qian Li said as she walks out of the room.

Suddenly the man became weary as he heard the sound of a door being opened. Then in front of him, a beautiful woman wearing a green military fatigue uniform stood. She is holding a crystal-like slab and looking at it as if reading something.

"So… you are a gold core realm cultivator from another kingdom? Why did you try to sneak into our town?" Qian Li asked with a cold voice.

"Che… a bunch of mortals trying to act tough." The man replied.

"Why did you try to sneak into our town?" Qian Li didn't answer but instead asked again.

"…"

The man didn't reply as he is determined not to divulge their mission to anyone. Right now he wanted to commit suicide by biting his tongue, but since his cultivation and meridians are sealed, he felt helpless. So without a choice, he just glared at the young woman in front of him.

"Sigh… let's do this again." Qian Li said as she took out a small flask from her pocket and walks towards the man.

He became uneasy as his eyes are glued to the thing on her hand.

While walking closer to the man, Qian Li slowly opens the small flask.

"This is a potent drug, which we discovered. I will make you feel unfocused and would immediately answer all of my questions. But after its effect is gone, you will feel pain inside your brain. Like thousands of ants gnawing and drilling your skull." Qian Li explained.

"This is a very painful way to die don't you think so?" she added with a hint of provocation in her tone.

"So your choice… The painful way or a nice way." She gave him the option while showing the small flask on her left hand and the crystal-like tablet on her right.

"Do you think I'm scared? You're just a stupid little mortal girl. F**k you, b*tch!" The man shouted while cussing.

"Tsk, Tsk, Bad move." Qian Li said in a cold tone.

Her whole body suddenly glowed red as she drops the crystal-like tablet on the floor. Using her right hand she immediately appears in front of the man like a ghost and grabs his jaw. Then she effortlessly lifted the man's body from the ground.

With a light pinch, he could not help himself but open his mouth and no matter how hard he struggles he is unable to do anything.

Qian Li didn't hesitate and uses two drops of liquid from the small flask.

As the drops of liquid enter the man's mouth, he suddenly feels a cold sensation enveloping his whole body. Then his mind immediately turned muddled where he feels that he is flying in the sky.

On the other side of the room, the people watching the monitor showed a flabbergasted expression.

"That woman… she… she actually uses two drops." Meng Shiaoning (Phoenix) muttered while sighing helplessly.

"That's his fault for being stupid… commander clearly gave him a choice. But no, he has to be hostile against us. Plus he cusses her, so he should suffer." Ruby Lee said while showing a cute annoyed face.

It didn't take long as the man started to talk, they got all the information about the man and his group's target and what's their purpose in intruding the town. The more they heard the more their eyes widen in disbelief. Luckily, it was Qian Li who is interrogating the man, because right now, almost all the girls watching the monitor are already exuding a dangerous killing intent. The people operating and recording the surveillance camera started to shiver in fright.

These girls are the leaders of the town's army and guards. They are known for their strict rules and cruel nature. Though they look like angels and cute on the outside, however, once you tick them off, then you have to suffer their wrath.

After interrogating the man, Qian Li and the rest of the original Shadow Squad team began to have a meeting.

"Is… is the man really not master Shin?" Chu Chan asked reluctantly.

Her question also seems to reflect the rest of the girl's feelings as they too nod and look at Qian Li with expectant eyes.

"My conjecture was right… but… there is also a possibility that he is master Shin. Because his destination is the town of Dis, maybe he wanted to hide from his pursuer in our base." Qian Li said while still unsure of her answer.

"Well, at this time we can't do anything… What we can do is just to wait for that man who looks like master Shin to wake up." Meng Shiaoning suggested.

"I agree with sister Meng. If we can only make him wake up then everything would be cleared." Chu Chan said while shrugging her shoulder.

"But what if we are right… how can we explain this to Sister Qin?" suddenly Beiwei Tang asked with concern.

Then everyone turned silent as they too don't know what to do at this moment. They are thinking of hiding while observing as they didn't want to hurt Qin Lou's feelings.

Each of them saw how she was for the past 50 years while waiting for their master. She would always look at the sky at night and shed a tear while whispering his name in the air. None of them wanted to be the bearer of news that's still unfounded and not sure.

As they are quietly thinking about ways on how to face this dilemma, a sudden knock on the door woke them from their stupor.

"Excuse me! Commander… I think you need to go to the infirmary. The… the patient seems to have woken up." a young woman deck in a soldier's fatigue uniform suddenly said.

When the group heard this everyone's expression turned serious with a complicated look in their eyes.

"I guess it's time to face the truth." Qian Li muttered as she walks out of the room with a complicated feeling deep in her heart.
