Blood Pool could be explained as a Bounty Strike list where people anonymously post the bounties on affluent people's death. Mercenaries and assassins usually take their missions from their organizations but bounty hunters had their income only through the mission posted on the Blood Pool. But Blood Pool was apparently open to everyone as long as one complete the mission, he can get the prize money.

Ru gave Edmund a look that said, 'Have you lost your mind?'

"I have been on that Blood Pool for the past seven years as 'The White Shadow' and from the past six years as 'Lord Alev Knight'. Don't you think that sounds rather unconvincing that only now will I have these assassination attempts?" Ru's point wasn't wrong. But she was forgetting a small detail.

"Master, your alias 'The White Shadow' is just like the name itself. You are more like a myth to people than reality. As for your alias of 'Lord Alev Knight', only your trusted people know what you really look like." Edmund's words brought out Ru's interest as she crossed her arms.

"Keep going." She gave her permission to continue.

Edmund finally managed to breathe properly as he felt like a blade that was pressed against his throat was slowly lifted and he managed to continue, "While I was going through all our channels, I came across the Blood Pool and saw the bounty on your head but the alias was 'Xie Rong'." As he finished, Ru's mind finally managed to grasp the whole situation.

People couldn't find 'The White Shadow' or 'Lord Alev Knight' since both of her identities were kept well hidden but her alias of 'Xie Rong' was different. She had been actively participating in all of Matrix Consortium's business affairs. Not only her face was well-known to people, but even her location also wasn't that hard to trace if one followed her business meetings, they'd be able to find her.

And that explained why she had become an easy target for people these days. Certainly, Matrix Consortium had acquired a lot of enemies in the two years of its operation but she personally didn't think that she had offended anyone of the caliber who would dare to put a bounty on her life.

Then who could it be? Hold on, most importantly...

"What's the bounty?" Ru inquired after a while of contemplation.

Edmund pursed his lips, not daring to voice it out. Ru narrowed her eyes at him before pressing the button on her watch and said, "Raven, quote the bounty on Xie Rong's life." Edmund's reaction had irked her at some level.

"From the statistics, the bounty started from 5 million dollars but now, it has reached 20 million dollars." Ru gaped in disbelief as she heard Raven's response.

"Are you fu*cking kidding me?" She shouted taking everyone by surprise. "Since when did my value went so low?"

The team of five people before her were having difficulties while trying to stifle their laughter. Only their master could be this eccentric. Ru wasn't angry to find out that she was being hunted but she was rather upset to see that her value was only a puny 20 million. What a joke!

Both as 'The White Shadow' and 'Lord Alev Knight', her bounty started at the higher figure than this one. It was making her super mad. Only for 20 million dollars, these many people were after her life and yet as 'Lord Alev Knight' holding the highest bounty prize of over a billion dollars, no one had dared to even breathe loudly around her.

Both were her own alias, then why this partiality. It seemed unfair.

A soft tapping of leather shoes on the concrete floor could be heard as she saw a familiar face coming close. Wu Dishi bowed to greet her while his heart shuddered at the sight of all the blood.

"I will be lying low for a while Wu Dishi. Manage the meetings yourself." Ru shifted back to the bodies and said, "Get rid of these people. They are making my eyes itch." Saying that she turned around and left them.

"Huh? Why is master running instead of fighting back?" Wu Dishi was confused since he didn't think that it was his master's style to avoid a fight. Instead of standing tall to fight back, Ru was simply avoiding this showdown.

Connor patted his shoulder and said, "Dear comrade, Master is scared."

"Huh? What? Scared?" Wu Dishi was dumbfounded at this response.
