Chapter 30: The Wind Killers Are Annihilated

"What! Even the top assassin Shadow Demon failed!" Qian Duoduo was shocked.

"No one knows the exact situation, but Shadow Demon took the mission and after some time, admitted to failing it."

Qian Duoduo asked, "The business at the Treasure Tower is getting better and better. We must complete the assassination as soon as possible, or we will suffer even greater losses. Go immediately and increase the reward to two million gold coins."

"Yes, Master of the Family."

Qian Family's business was affected, which was a huge blow to them.

To deal with Xia Yuxuan, the Qian Family spared no expense in hiring assassins.

The Treasure Tower, on the other hand, continued to operate, with business booming.

For safety, Xia Yuxuan no longer went out to manage business affairs. She stayed in the main courtyard, accompanied by Shadow Flower, handling some matters.

During the day, with Shadow Flower, a top assassin, and Xia Yun and others providing close protection, it was relatively safe.

As soon as there was any movement, Tuoba Ye, Zhan Meng, the Eight Dragon Guards, and the White Jade Lion Dragons could immediately rush to the main courtyard.

After learning about the situation with the assassin organization, Tuoba Ye did not dare to be careless.

When Shadow Flower informed Tuoba Ye that the reward had been raised to two million gold coins, Tuoba Ye cursed, "Grandfather, to kill a postnatal martial artist, a woman, they are willing to offer two million gold coins. They are really generous."

Two million gold coins was no small amount. In the Warring States, few forces could come up with two million gold coins.

Actually, even without knowing the mastermind, Tuoba Ye had already guessed.

However, without evidence, Tuoba Ye could not directly take action against the Qian Family, as the Warring States royal family would likely intervene.

As for the assassins, he would ensure they had no way out.

Assassins' methods were mysterious and unpredictable, so Tuoba Ye did not dare to be careless.

For over ten days, everything was peaceful. On this night, when it was deep and quiet, the front courtyard of the Treasure Tower echoed with shouts of battle.

In the front courtyard of the Treasure Tower, there were only four nine-star postnatal martial artists, not particularly powerful.

Hearing the commotion, Tuoba Ye immediately made arrangements: "Zhan Meng, Eight Dragon Guards, go to the front courtyard. Make sure the enemies have no way out, and try to capture them alive. If you can't, kill them directly."

He himself also moved, heading straight for Xia Yuxuan's room.

The shouts of battle were loud, and Xia Yuxuan and the others were already awake.

Xia Yuxuan and Shadow Flower were inside the room, while Xia Yun and others guarded outside. Xia Mei, Xia Ju, and the other six young girls, who were not yet very strong, did not participate.

The assassins' target was Xia Yuxuan, and they would not attack the young girls, as it would alert the others.

"Xiao Ye, how is the situation in the front courtyard?" Xia Yuxuan asked.

"Mother, don't worry. Zhan Meng and the others can handle it," Tuoba Ye said, full of confidence.

Recently, Zhan Meng and the Eight Dragon Guards had improved by one star level. The Eight Dragon Guards, working together, could almost match a nine-star innate martial god.

Among the assassins, there were indeed some formidable figures, but a nine-star innate martial god was extremely rare. Moreover, the commotion in the front courtyard was clearly a distraction, and the real assassins had not yet made their move.

"Little husband, assassins are very powerful. Are you really not worried?" Shadow Flower asked.

Tuoba Ye said confidently, "My personally trained subordinates, if they can't handle those small fry, they would be too incompetent."

The shouts and screams in the front courtyard were deafening, while the main courtyard and the back courtyard were eerily quiet.

The back courtyard had four White Jade Lion Dragons, which were not simple. The larger ones had improved by one star level, and the smaller ones by two star levels, making them very powerful.

If anyone entered the back courtyard, the White Jade Lion Dragons would definitely notice. After all, assassins with special abilities like Shadow Flower were rare.

As for Bunny, he always liked to sleep on Tuoba Ye's shoulder and was now sound asleep.

"They're here! Two assassins!" Tuoba Ye had been using his divine sense to probe the surroundings and was the first to detect the assassins.

The two assassins who appeared did not enter through the back courtyard or the front courtyard but came in from the side. They were very powerful.

Tuoba Ye could sense that one of the assassins was an eight-star innate martial god, and the other was a seven-star innate martial god.

An eight-star innate martial god was definitely a top assassin, and a seven-star innate martial god, though not as strong as Shadow Flower, was still a top-tier second-rate assassin.

The appearance of this pair clearly showed the importance of the mission.

They did not alarm Xia Yun and the others but directly entered Xia Yuxuan's room.

Tuoba Ye said to Shadow Flower, "We each take one. Let's see who finishes the fight first."

He took on the eight-star innate martial god, blocking him.

"Sure! Little husband, let's see who is stronger," Shadow Flower said excitedly.

The four strong figures split into two pairs and began the battle.

Xia Yun and the others entered the room, protecting Xia Yuxuan, and moved her to another room to hide.

"Bunny, please protect my mother," Tuoba Ye said, still not at ease.

"I really owe you," Bunny said, opening his sleepy eyes.

Bunny went, and Tuoba Ye felt relieved, engaging in the battle with the assassins.

The assassin, seeing that his opponent was just a child, initially underestimated him but was soon shocked.

Every punch Tuoba Ye threw was incredibly powerful. The assassin, who was not particularly strong in direct combat, was no match and was forced to retreat.

Tuoba Ye did not want to waste time and immediately used the second form of the Overlord Divine Fist, Overlord Strike, dealing a severe blow to the assassin, who fell to the ground, unable to get up.

"Done!" Tuoba Ye clapped his small hands.

Shadow Flower faced a formidable opponent and naturally could not end the fight so quickly.

After a fierce battle, her opponent recognized her.

"You are Shadow Demon! Why are you here?" the assassin was shocked.

Some of the signature techniques of assassins were not secrets in the assassin world.

When Shadow Flower used her signature technique, it was not surprising that she was recognized.

"Since you recognize me, you can die!" Shadow Flower suddenly used the invisible poison, which entered through the breath, and the powerful assassin quickly lost his fighting ability.

Shadow Flower, feeling proud, wanted to show off: "Look, I've already solved—"

Before she could finish, she saw Tuoba Ye looking at her with a smile, and she fell silent.

"How did you do it? Your opponent was the famous Wind Breaker!" After a while, Shadow Flower finally spoke.

Tuoba Ye smiled, "I'm stronger than you, so naturally, I'm also stronger than Wind Breaker."

"Little husband, you are really amazing!" Shadow Flower exclaimed, jumping up and down, looking very cute.

Over time, Tuoba Ye seemed to have gotten used to it and did not mind Shadow Flower's way of addressing him.

"Of course. What's the background of this Wind Breaker?" Tuoba Ye asked curiously.

"Wind Breaker, the leader of the Wind Killers, is a top assassin who has even attempted to assassinate a nine-star innate martial god. Although he failed, he managed to escape, showing his strength. I am also a top assassin, but compared to him, there is still a gap. It seems the Wind Killers have all come out, but unfortunately, they will all meet their end here," Shadow Flower said.

"Are the Wind Killers very powerful?" Tuoba Ye asked.

"Wind Killers is one of the top assassin organizations in the assassin world. They have only twelve members, but each is a five-star innate martial god or higher," Shadow Flower said.

"Bad, the strong figures in the front courtyard might be in trouble," Tuoba Ye exclaimed.

Shadow Flower shook her head, "Not necessarily. The people in the front courtyard were just to draw attention and would not kill. Assassins don't like to harm people other than their target, unless absolutely necessary."

"I hope so, otherwise, we will have lost a lot of gold coins." The four strong figures in the front courtyard were recently purchased by Xia Yuxuan, with average talent, and Tuoba Ye did not bother to cultivate them.

Cultivating a strong figure was not a simple matter. It was better to focus on the Eight Dragon Guards.

A true strong figure could handle a hundred. The Eight Dragon Guards, with the potential to become top innate martial gods, were worth cultivating.

"Little husband, aren't you worried about the Eight Dragon Guards and Zhan Meng?" Shadow Flower asked.

Tuoba Ye smiled, "If they can't handle the other members of the Wind Killers, why did I work so hard to cultivate them?"

Anyway, Shadow Flower's impression of Tuoba Ye was that he was arrogant and conceited.

Tuoba Ye tied up Wind Breaker and the other assassin, preparing to interrogate them. He first sealed their cultivation, or they would not be restrained.

Soon, Zhan Meng and the others brought the captives back. Long Yi said, "Young Master, we captured ten assassins, all very strong. Two of the four guards in the front courtyard are severely injured, and two are lightly injured."

"Long Yi, help them heal, then send two strong figures to guard the front courtyard," Tuoba Ye arranged.

Shadow Flower, seeing Zhan Meng and the others return unharmed and bring back the other ten Wind Killers alive, could hardly believe it.

"Zhan Meng, tell me, how did you do it?" Shadow Flower, whose clan had declined and had no peers to play with, was very active and less cold after coming to the Treasure Tower.

"This is all thanks to Young Master's excellent training," Zhan Meng said sincerely.

Shadow Flower looked at Tuoba Ye coldly and said, "Little husband, are you very proud?"

"No, it's the result of their own efforts," Tuoba Ye smiled.

"Excessive modesty is arrogance!" Shadow Flower pouted.

Tuoba Ye said, "I'm not proud, and I'm not modest. I'm just not going to cater to you. I'll take good care of the Wind Killers. They wanted to kill my mother, so I'll make them suffer."

"Little husband, what are you going to do to them?" Shadow Flower asked curiously.

"Nothing much, just to teach them a lesson," Tuoba Ye said with an evil smile.

Seeing Tuoba Ye's smile, Shadow Flower felt a bit uneasy.

Tuoba Ye, though young, was unpredictable. Shadow Flower had been with him for some time but still could not figure him out.

Shadow Flower knew that the Wind Killers would suffer.

As an assassin herself, she felt a bit sorry for them but did not speak up to stop it.
