"Hmph, Gu Lang, have you forgotten what you promised me?!" Leng Yue glared at him and said angrily.
"Uh, I didn't forget, I didn't forget. It's just that I'm angry and want to take revenge for you. Moreover, I specifically asked for you. As long as we kill this brat, the one hundred million bounty is still valid!
Moreover, you have the strength of a gold medal assassin. Sooner or later, you will return to the top fifty! "Gu Lang explained with an embarrassed smile.
After being together for so long, he was very clear about Leng Yue's temperament. She had a competitive heart and wanted to prove herself in the field of assassins. Before this mission failed, Leng Yue relied on her one hundred percent satisfaction and completion rate to make a name for herself in the assassin world. For a woman, this was definitely not easy to come by. Moreover, she had said more than once that before she became a top twenty ace assassin, she didn't want to have an example of failure.
In the end, this success rate was destroyed. It was indeed very angry. Previously, when Gu Lang mentioned that he wanted to take revenge for Leng Yue, he was rejected. Leng Yue solemnly told him not to interfere in this matter. From where you fall, you climb up. This was her principle.
"I'll say it again. I appreciate your good intentions, but I don't need your help to take revenge. This is a denial to me!"
Leng Yue's face was as cold as frost. Her body emitted a bone-piercing chill. Under the contrast of her clothes, there was a kind of valiant and heroic feeling.
Damn, so cool!
I didn't think that a girl could be so cold. She had many sides. When she was carrying out a mission, she could be sexy and charming. When she showed her cold side, it was as if the surrounding temperature dropped.
Gu Lang's face stiffened. This wasn't the first time he was reprimanded by Leng Yue. However, it was rare for her to do it in front of others. Moreover, from Gu Lang's point of view, Leng Yue's reprimand seemed to be biased towards me.
An assassin's senses were extremely sharp, whether it was in judging people's emotions or details. It was because he felt that there was something wrong with Leng Yue that he thought of questioning me. However, he couldn't get a definite answer.
"Little Yueyue, I'm sorry. It was indeed my negligence. I only wanted to help you solve your troubles. In a moment of impulse, I came to find you. So, according to your meaning, you want to let him go!?" Gu Lang took a deep breath. He didn't get angry. It seemed that he liked Leng Yue.
"Yes." Leng Yue nodded.
"I don't think that's a good idea. This brat's strength is not weak. He's comparable to an assassin ranked 40th or 50th in the world. It's not a coincidence that he defeated you. I think it's better to take this opportunity to kill him to prevent any undue delays."
Gu Lang was a little hesitant. He didn't want to let the tiger return to the mountain. Furthermore, from an outsider's point of view, Leng Yue's stubbornness was pure stubbornness. In the future, when this brat matured, it would be very difficult to kill him again.
"Hehe, are you afraid?" Leng Yue narrowed her eyes and asked.
"Scared?
What am I afraid of?! "Gu Lang was slightly stunned and pretended to be shocked as he asked.
"I'm afraid that if I give him time to grow, I'm also afraid that I'll be defeated by him." Leng Yue's words carried a trace of disdain. It could be said that she had hit the nail on the head.
Gu Lang hated this kind of feeling. When he first walked the path of an assassin, it was because he was looked down upon by others.
He slightly hesitated and revealed a relieved smile. "Little Yue Yue, your joke isn't funny at all. I, Gu Lang, have never been afraid of anyone. Of course, I also understand your thoughts. It's precisely because I don't want you to feel too much pressure that I came up with this plan. Alright, alright, I'll do as you say. Let him go."
Hearing Gu Lang's words, Leng Yue slightly relaxed. Then, Gu Lang walked over and held her small hand. "This kind of person, in my eyes, is forever a trash who can't lift his head. If you understand in the future, I'll take his head and let you kick it like a ball."
Being ridiculed like this, I felt a burst of displeasure in my heart. However, I didn't dare to say anything. As the saying goes, when you're under someone else's roof, how could you not lower your head? Compared to the risk of taking the Inner Dan, enduring a few insults was nothing.
However, I had a strange feeling. You know, just this morning, I humiliated Leng Yue through physical punishment, but now, she saved my life.
From her point of view, perhaps she wanted to kill me with her own hands. If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have bullied her like that. At that time, I saw her sexy and hot, so I couldn't help it …
Although my little life was saved, the Exquisite Soft Armor would definitely return to its original owner … Speaking of which, it was quite depressing. This treasure, I haven't even warmed up to it yet. If I returned it to Leng Yue just like that, my heart would be very uncomfortable. If I could have the strength of the late or even the peak of the Covert Jing, even if Gu Lang had the Golden Snake Sword, he might not be my opponent.
Although my Bajiquan had been cultivated to a superb level, and the second half of the fist intent had a miraculous effect of winning, but in the face of a mid-grade refined weapon, it was somewhat useless. After all, I was bare-handed, so the disadvantage was self-evident.
Unexpectedly, she chatted with Gu Lang for a while and then left calmly. This made me puzzled. Could it be that she had forgotten about the Exquisite Soft Armor?
That was unlikely. Something like this that could directly increase one's combat power was not an ordinary item.
During the confrontation with Gu Lang just now, I tried to use it and found that as long as I infused some Qi-Jin, I could resist most of the deterrence of the peak of Covert Jing.
Or, after eating my "Lollipop Chicken", she fell in love with me?
This was too fake. I wasn't a fan of thousands of people. At most, my dick was a size bigger than others. I directly ruled out this possibility.
Or, did she deliberately leave it for me to use?
However, I couldn't find a suitable reason. I always felt that there was something hidden in it.
"Brother Xiao Feng, what are you thinking about?" Seeing my absent-minded look, Liu Jie couldn't help but nudge me with her elbow.
"Uh, nothing." I shook my head.
"I was really scared just now." Liu Jie let out a long sigh of relief and patted her chest.
Sister-in-law wasn't much better.
She had a look of lingering fear.
"Mei-jie, Xiao Jie, I'm sorry. I didn't have enough ability. I almost implicated you guys."
I lowered my head and was full of apology. Although I escaped, I didn't feel happy. I blamed myself more. I couldn't even protect the people I love. This feeling was not good.
"What are you saying? If it wasn't for you, we wouldn't be alive today." Sister-in-law rolled her eyes and said unhappily.
"Yeah, Mei-jie is right. Moreover, if I can die with you, then I have no regrets." Liu Jie pouted.
Hearing the two women's words, I was moved. I couldn't help but remind myself to learn from this lesson.
