Chapter 1: The Final Mission

Next Chapter

The secret gate is the only buying and killing sect on the main road of Kyushu, located in the dark city of the five cities at the junction of the three kingdoms.

Inside the secret door.

The three of them squatted on the stone bench in the corridor of the courtyard, looking at the masked man in the courtyard who was wielding his sword and practicing his qi, whispering.

A black-clothed man chewing a piece of emerald grass in his mouth "phew", spit the grass aside, and gloated: "Eighteen brothers, I heard from the brothers in the door that Dark Nine has not received a task from the sect for half a month. ”

"It is true. Dark Nineteen nodded thoughtfully.

"Little Four, don't be careless, the door master has always been the most optimistic about Dark Nine, if he is recuperating and waiting to take a big order, maybe it's not enough. Dark Eighteen laughed.

I already knew in my heart that Dark Nine was afraid that the general trend had gone. Recently, the big orders in the door were all named by the door owner to accept them. It's just that Dark Nine has been very leisurely these days, practicing swords in the courtyard every day, and he doesn't seem to be in a hurry at all.

Dark Eighteen had some doubts about this.

"The big list is for the eighteenth brother, where does the door owner still have the list for him?" Wang Xiaosi was disdainful, and then his eyes lit up again, and he leaned into the ear of the dark eighteen and said: "I heard that the brothers in the door said that the dark nine was seriously injured, so the door master did not send him a task." ”

"It's all a non-existent thing. Dark Eighteen sneered.

At this time, I saw that the protagonist of the topic, Dark Jiu, had already put away his sword and walked towards the three of them, but he didn't look at the three of them, and walked straight past the three of them.

Wang Xiaosi glanced up at him, only to see Dark Nine stop and look at him sideways, his eyes were as if he had fallen into a deep pool, and the cold was infiltrating.

Frightened, Wang Xiaosi immediately lowered his head, and only then did he breathe a sigh of relief when Dark Nine walked by.

Dark Nineteen looked at Wang Xiaosi sideways, and the corners of his mouth hooked a sneer, it was really useless!

At this time, Dark Eighteen got up and got down from the stone bench, turned to Dark Nine's back and asked, "Senior brother, how are you doing these days?"

"Don't worry about it, it's always been good!" Dark Jiu paused and said, especially in the word "very good", which pressed the weight.

Then he left the hallway without looking back.

"Dark Nine, he ......" Wang Xiaosi looked at Dark Eighteen with palpitations, and swallowed silently.

"It's been good. Dark Eighteen hooked his lips and smiled greatly, with a hint of schadenfreude in his eyes.

Out of the corridor, a little assassin from the secret door came to lure Dark Nine to the main hall of the gate.

"Master. Dark Nine bowed without saying a word or humility.

"Dark Nine. The door master turned to look at Dark Jiu, and sighed earnestly: "Do you know, why didn't I send you a task these days?"

"The apprentice doesn't know. Dark Nine looked at the door master, and the other party's eyes were clearly full of helplessness and reluctance, he didn't understand, why.

The door master didn't explain much, but sighed and said, "From tomorrow, you will pack up your things and leave the secret door......"

Before he finished speaking, Dark Nine had already knelt heavily on one knee, and his words were not messy, "Dark Nine doesn't know what Master thinks, I just beg Master not to expel the apprentice." ”

"It's not that I'm going to expel you. The door master lowered his voice and helped Dark Nine up, "The body of the Emperor of the Spirit Kingdom is not as good as before, you should also know about this matter, right?"

"I've heard a little. ”

It's just that Dark Nine doesn't understand, what does the matter of the Emperor of the Spirit Kingdom have to do with him?

"This is your deed of sale in the secret door, tomorrow, you will no longer be my secret doorman. The door master put a piece of this paper in Dark Jiu's hand, met the other party's puzzled gaze, and said: "This is your last task, Xu Shilianyue, the county lord of the Spirit Kingdom Xu Shi Wangfu, has entered the dark city, and you will protect her tomorrow." ”

"Xu Shi Lianyue?"

"Yes, Xu Shilianyue, you will protect her from tomorrow. ”

"What is the time limit?"

"It's up to you. "The master of the door is meaningful.

Dark Nine was silent, and he also understood that the things that the door master had decided could not be changed by himself, so he silently collected the deed of sale and left the main hall.

He didn't know what the door master was planning, but he just thought that since the door master did this, then there must be a reason for him. Among them, there must be something waiting for him.

Dark Nine packed up his things early the next day and rode away without alarming anyone.

According to the news that the owner of the door gave him last night, Xu Shilianyue has now arrived at Dark Wind Street in the dark city, and last night he lived in a restaurant called Fenglai.

However, it is also said that Xu Shilianyue is now penniless, and yesterday he pawned one of his jade bracelets in exchange for the silver taels in the store.

I never thought that the county lord of the palace would be so desolate after running away from home.

At least in Dark Jiu's opinion, when he was out of the house, he didn't have any survival skills, if it weren't for Xu Shilianyue's still having some valuable things on his body, he wouldn't know which wilderness he slept on.

When Dark Nine came to Fenglai Restaurant, it was already dawn, but there were a bunch of people surrounding the door at this time, buzzing and not knowing what they were discussing, and some heads poked out from the upstairs on both sides of the road, looking at the crowd in unison.

At this time, although the crowd was discussing, the loud conversation of the few people inside, Dark Nine could still hear it clearly.

"I said it all, I didn't steal anything from you, this bracelet is really mine!"

"You're talking nonsense! I entered the shop with you, and I only turned around, and the bracelet on the counter was gone, and if you didn't steal it, who else could steal it? Now what you carry in your hand is clearly my family's heirloom!"

"I'm going to redeem my bracelet, how did it become yours!" the woman's voice was visibly angry and helpless.

Dark Nine didn't want to pay attention to this matter, but when he heard this, he had to stop and watch, and in the crowd was a young woman and a woman arguing.

The woman had a red cinnabar between her eyebrows, and Xu Shilianyue had a good cinnabar between her eyebrows, thinking that that person was Xu Shilianyue's good.

It's just that it's only morning, and it's really lively.

I don't know if it was because he was dressed in black, or the expression on his face was too unsatisfactory, or if the mask was really unusual, he stopped, and after several people around him glanced at him, they hurriedly retreated, so that later there was an empty passage in front of him, and he could clearly see the situation in the crowd.

Dark Nine was accustomed to this, and indifferently led the horse to the front,

The woman was born with a smart and lovely appearance, dressed in pink, but Dark Nine confirmed that Xu Shilian Yue was correct.

"At that time, there were only three people in the shop, you and me, and the shopkeeper, if it wasn't you, who else would it be?

The woman sneered, and stepped forward to snatch the bracelet from the woman's wrist, Xu Shilianyue hurriedly retreated, looked at a middle-aged man helplessly, and said, "Shopkeeper, you should say something, this bracelet is really mine!
