King of Assassins

Chapter 386: Deserved to be killed


The sky gradually darkened, and Gao Xuan, who had been lying there for half a day, sighed and sat up.

The two sword scars on his chest were not deep but very long, and any movement would tug at the wounds, which was quite troublesome.

Fortunately, this body was young enough and full of vitality.

After resting for several hours, he surprisingly regained some spirit.

During this time, Gao Xuan sorted through what he had learned. This guy was abducted by the Feihua Sect as a child, and because he was good-looking and talented in martial arts, he was accepted as a disciple.

His main cultivation in inner power was the Lesser Yang Technique, which was a very pure Daoist Qi Cultivation Technique. Having practiced for more than ten years, his cultivation in the Lesser Yang Technique was quite superb.

He knew the Orchid Brushing Hand, Thirty-Six Small Grappling Techniques, Flying Swallow Body Technique, and was proficient in the Flying Saber, Sleeve Arrow, and Money Dart. He was also very skilled with various poison and hidden weapons.

According to his own estimation, he could be considered a third-tier expert approximately.

Though it sounds somewhat underwhelming, within the Zhenwu Escort Agency sub-branch, he was already ranked among the top experts.

Except for Third Lady and Head Escort Qin Zhenwu, who could beat him steadily, no one else could defeat him.

Even Tao Ying and Tao Hui sisters, in terms of inner strength alone, were not much stronger than him.

However, the sisters had excellent swordsmanship and could unite their dual swords. Once they took action, they injured him.

If this kid truly used poison hidden weapons, it would be hard to say who would kill whom.

Gao Xuan studied the Lesser Yang Technique, which had similarities with the Three Yang Technique he practiced in his previous world. Both involved circulating Qi through the meridians, nurturing Qi in the Dantian, and ultimately surging Qi through the Twelfth Layer to reach the Ren and Du Meridians, achieving Qi Cultivation Mastery.

At this stage, he would be a top-tier expert of the time.

Gao Xuan found the Lesser Yang Technique overly simple and plain; while easy to practice, it had a very low ceiling.

Fortunately, this inner power was very pure; with it as a foundation, he could completely find a better inner power for cultivation.

In this Jianghu, Martial Arts Secret Techniques are the most important core secrets of major sects and organizations.

It's precisely by mastering these advanced knowledge that sects and organizations can maintain their legacy and have a strong centripetal force.

Exquisite martial arts are very complex. It's not something you can just learn from holding a manual. You must have a renowned teacher to guide you in the essentials and grasp the critical points in order to succeed.

Learning a powerful martial art isn't so easy.

The Golden Silk Palm, Third Lady's unique skill, tempting him with it, can be considered cost-intensive.

However, Third Lady was just saying that. Gao Xuan doesn't really believe she would teach him the Golden Silk Palm.

Such a unique skill is Third Lady's foundation, and there's no reason to casually pass it on to someone.

In his previous world, Gao Xuan closed his mouth and practiced for thirty years, discovering the cultivation rules of that world and mastering the powerful Thunder Skill.

He was then able to wield his sword to slay the Dragon Monarch, not just because of his strong swordsmanship but because of the powerful Thunder Skill.

In this world, inner strength is not much different; Gao Xuan needs time to adapt and find more Secret Techniques as references, and he will eventually find a better cultivation path.

The key is that this kid has great talent in the Flying Swallow Body Technique, flying high and jumping far, with extremely fast speed.

Just in terms of Lightweight Skill, he should be considered first-class.

After all, this is the Feihua Sect's trademark skill, and the Flying Swallow Body Technique is also well-known in the Jianghu.

During dinner, the servant even brought a separate meal just for Gao Xuan, which not only included roast chicken but also two roasted pig trotters...

In this era, any kind of meat was somewhat expensive. This separate meal represents Third Lady's full of affection.

Gao Xuan didn't hold back either, devouring both the meat and vegetables and eating a bowl of rice.

For a martial artist, this amount of food is nothing.

Gao Xuan just ate until he was ninety percent full, far from being fully satiated.

When the sky was fully dark, Gao Xuan changed into a set of black night-walking clothes, put on all sorts of gear.

He pushed the door open quietly from inside the room, and after confirming that no one was around, he passed through a small door into the front courtyard.

The escort agency was large; the first three sections housed the agency's waiters. The back two courtyards were where Third Lady lived with Gao Xuan and a few others.

Next to Gao Xuan lived the two brothers Cui Bao and Yang Biao, who could be considered his senior brothers, all having entered at the same time. They were familiar with each other. However, these two brothers were not as good-looking and their martial arts were average, so they were not as valued in the sect as Gao Xuan.

Therefore, when the two brothers saw Gao Xuan injured today, they were gloating.

Gao Xuan silently came to Third Lady's courtyard. There were two side rooms, both dark with no lights. Only the main room exuded a dim light.

Gao Xuan gently knocked on the wooden window, footsteps sounded from inside, and then the door opened.

The squeaking of the wooden door opening was quite piercing in the quiet night.

Third Lady stood at the door and beckoned to Gao Xuan: "Come in."

Once Gao Xuan entered the room, he found Third Lady had changed into a lake-green Confucian-style dress, with most of her upper garment revealing a crimson chest wrap underneath.

Red and green...

Gao Xuan curled his lips secretly, thinking that Third Lady's sense of aesthetics was really poor.

That being said, although Third Lady's appearance was average, her skin was very fair, and most importantly, she had a great figure.

In the dim oil lamp light, in such a relaxed state, Third Lady was indeed quite enticing.

Gao Xuan was somewhat tempted, considering whether to... before taking action?

However, that would be too beastly, although Third Lady was not a good person, and who knows how many women she'd sold and how many innocents she'd killed with her own hands.

Gao Xuan only had such a fleeting thought because his biological instincts controlled him. Due to practicing the Lesser Yang Technique, this body had always remained pure.

With theoretical experience rich, encountering the somewhat mature Third Lady, he couldn't quite control the instincts.

Third Lady also noticed Gao Xuan's fiery eyes and smiled with some smugness. He was indeed a novice, but this made it more fun.

Third Lady extended a finger, hooking Gao Xuan's chin, and said, "Little sweetheart, make Third Lady happy, and she will give you everything."
