Just when Dark Knife didn't know how to gain the trust of the Great Elder, footsteps sounded outside his door.

The Hidden Knife quickly stood up vigilantly, holding the dagger tightly in his hand.

Bang bang bang ...

There was a knock on the door.

The steward of the Great Elder outside the door asked, "Is the hidden knife there?"

Hearing the voice of the steward, the Dark Knife quickly got up and went over to open the door.

"Is there anything important for the chief steward to find me at this time?"

The steward stood at the door, and did not mean to enter the house.

"It's not that I'm here to look for you, I came to you on the orders of the Great Elder and I have something to ask. ”

Hearing that it was the Great Elder looking for him, Dark Dao was a little worried in his heart, but he was also full of joy.

Because he really didn't know how to gain the trust of the Great Elder.

It's not like the Great Elder sent someone to give him a chance.

"The Great Elder is looking for me, do you know what the steward is doing?"

The steward's face was extremely calm, and he shook his head slightly.

"When will the Great Elder tell me about it, if you want to go, you will go, if you don't go, I will go back and report it!"

Hearing the steward's unkind tone, the dark knife chuckled in his heart.

Have you been discovered?

The dark knife thought so, and then he hurriedly clasped his hands into fists and said, "Chief steward, you go back first, and I'll go over immediately when I'm ready!"

"Hurry up, don't let the Great Elder wait too long!"

After seeing the steward leave, the Dark Knife paced back and forth in his room, pondering why the Great Elder had come to him at this time.

After thinking about it, the Hidden Knife finally decided that he must go and meet the Great Elder.

Otherwise, it will definitely arouse the suspicion of the other party!

So the dark knife sorted out his emotions and walked out of the door towards the place where the Great Elder lived.

The place where the two lived was far away, which was deliberately arranged by the Great Elder.

The steward stood in the doorway, watching from afar as the Hidden Knife came this way.

"Is anyone coming?"

The voice of the Great Elder came from inside the room.

The steward outside the door lowered his voice and said, "I have seen him!"

"When he comes, let him come in! And then you stay outside and remember that I don't want anyone around here while we're talking!"

"Got it, Great Elder!"

The Hidden Knife went straight into the Great Elder's room.

At this time, the Great Elder was meditating and practicing there, and when he saw the Hidden Knife coming in, he only raised his eyelids.

"Find your own place to sit!"

The Great Elder's tone was extremely calm.

"Okay!"

The Hidden Knife also worked hard to ensure that his mind was calm.

The Great Elder didn't seem to have any intention of stopping his practice and meditating.

The room became extremely quiet, and the Dark Knife looked at the Great Elder from time to time, and every time he looked at him, the Great Elder sat quietly.

After about a long time, the dark knife finally couldn't help it.

"Great Elder, I wonder what you are looking for me for?"

"I thought you could keep doing this!"

The Great Elder had been waiting for the Dark Knife to speak first, "Before you came here, did the family master send you any tasks?"

The Great Elder opened his eyes and stepped out of bed to stare at the Dark Knife and asked.

Hearing the Great Elder's question, the Dark Knife chuckled in his heart.

"Great Elder, what do you mean by that?"

"If you understand people, don't pretend to be confused here, I already know that the head of the house secretly sent you a mission before coming here!

After saying this, the Great Elder had already walked in front of the Hidden Knife.

The eagle-like eyes stared at the Hidden Knife.

Being stared at by the other party like this, the dark knife dodged his eyes, and he didn't dare to look at the Great Elder.

"Why don't you dare answer me?"

In the face of the Great Elder's continuous questioning, the Dark Knife finally couldn't help it, and said, "Since you already know, then I won't hide it anymore! I was indeed assigned some tasks by the family before I came here, and it was about you!"

"Hahahaha..."

The Great Elder suddenly looked up to the sky and laughed.

"I knew that this trip must not be as easy as I imagined!"

After saying that, the Great Elder looked at the Hidden Knife again. "Tell me, what kind of task did our head of the house assign to you?

Now that he has decided to tell the task given by the head of the family, the dark knife does not intend to hide it in the slightest.

"Yes, the head of the house means that I will find an opportunity to secretly attack you, and if I can't get rid of you, I will seriously injure you. ”

"Aren't you afraid that I'll kill you if you tell this?"

The Dark Knife raised his head, and at this time he finally dared to look at the Great Elder.

"Great Elder, I didn't plan to live this trip! I just thought that if I could complete the task, I could also leave some capital for my family to live. It's just that now that you've found out, I've already given up on living!"

"Good!"

The Great Elder gently patted the Dark Knife on the shoulder.

"If I can save your life and make your family live better, are you willing to die for me?"

At the beginning, he threatened with the family leader of the dark knife, which made the dark knife very uncomfortable in his heart, and now the great elder also wants to win him over, so that he will have one more choice.

"Great Elder, can you keep me?"

"The entire He family, except for the one who is the most powerful in me! If I think I can't protect you, who else can do it!"

Hearing this, the Dark Knife's hope for life instantly burned.

"If the Great Elder can really kill me, then my secret knife is naturally willing to take the lead for the Great Elder!"

"Okay!

"I wonder what the elder will tell me to do next?"

The Grand Elder returned to his place and sat down gently.

"It's very simple, you will go back after a while and act as if nothing happened! I believe that you will not be the only one sent by the head of the family, I want you to find out all the people sent by the head of the house to assassinate me before he leaves the customs!"

"Of course I know this, is this after finding them out? You must know that the head of the family already has a place for you, and there must be a plan to assassinate you if it fails!"

The Great Elder waved his hand, "You don't need to worry about the rest of the things, you just need to do what I tell you, and as for the next step, I will naturally inform you when the time comes!"

The Dark Knife knew that the Great Elder did not fully trust him at this time, so he did not continue to ask any further.

"Don't worry, Great Elder, I will definitely do my best to follow your arrangement! But please also remember your promise to me, I hope you can save my life!"

After saying that, the Hidden Knife was about to get up and leave.

"If you can do as I tell you, I will certainly save your life! But if you dare to betray me, then I will let you die without a place to bury. ”

"Don't worry, I still know that this world is respected by strength!"
