Chapter 148: Xiao Nannan

Assassin Divine Dynasty, a force that makes people tremble at the mere mention, existed since before the ancient era, and has always been known for its mystery and terror.

As for how many ages they have been passed down, no one can know; they mostly lie dormant, and once they emerge they will surely stir up a bloody storm.

They prove the Dao through slaughter; every assassin within has experienced blood to the bone, having walked out of mountains of corpses and seas of blood, and their assassination secrets are shocking to hear.

I say, Little Brother Ye, does that stone stronghold you're staying in have any secret?

The Boundless Daoist also followed in the crowd; regarding the matter of being hunted, he didn't care at all, anyway it wasn't aimed at him, and his life is tough, he can stay lively no matter what! "Don't think about it, there's nothing."

Ye Fan replied unhappily, knowing Duan De's nature all too well; being on his mind surely means no good.

"Forget it, worst case I, the Daoist, will go have a look myself." Duan De had an indifferent expression, then he crawled toward the Black Emperor.

"Dead dog, let's go, Daoist will take you to observe."

The Big Black Dog's eyes lit up at the words; he knew quite a bit about the stone stronghold, but his intuition told him there must be some secret he didn't know, and he immediately agreed.

"Go go go, you run yourselves, This Emperor can't be bothered with you."

He carefully put Xiao Nannan, who was on his back, down, then turned to leave with Duan De.

"No, you're really leaving, dead dog? Can't you be a bit more righteous?" Li Heishui's face darkened with black lines, angry enough to curse his mother.

"Woof! No profit at all, you want This Emperor to make a move?"

The Big Black Dog ignored him, and together with Duan De they turned away, transforming into black light and leaving you.

"Black Emperor, wait, I'll give you something good."

Ye Fan loudly called out to him; now being targeted by the Assassin Divine Dynasty, he must constantly guard against assassinations, and even his holy body can't take it.

He ultimately hasn't grown up; facing the ancient dynasty that proves the Dao through slaughter, he is quite passive, only able to constantly change his location, daring not to stay too long in any one place.

And the Black Emperor's attainment in formations is profound, few can match; if he were here, for Ye Fan and the others it would undoubtedly be much easier.

"What?"

Two streaks of black light arrived instantly; upon hearing there was something good, the Big Black Dog's eyes lit up, and he couldn't walk the Dao.

"Is this enough?"

Ye Fan gritted his teeth, took out a piece of divine source the size of a human head; although he also felt the pain, compared to his own life he could only bear the pain and let go.

"Just this?"

The Black Emperor scoffed; since teaming up with Duan De, they've been looting various ruins and plundering many strong cultivators, a single piece of divine source is hardly enough to make him fight desperately.

"Boundless Celestial Venerable, I say, Brother Ye, why don't you just handle it yourselves? With this time we could open an ancient tomb."

Duan De also shook his head; since following Yang Zhu, he has gained many treasures, and won't oppose the Assassin Divine Dynasty over a mere piece of divine source.

"How about adding a fragmentary scripture?" Ye Fan also went all in, immediately throwing out a staggering stake, producing a fragmentary ancient scripture.

"Just take it out earlier and it would've been fine."

The Black Emperor snatched it up, gave it a rough look, and he and Duan De grinned from ear to ear, drool dripping all over the ground.

The scripture is very fragmentary, only a few dozen characters in total, but since it bears the character "Emperor", its value remains immeasurable.

"Big Doggy, mind your image, are you going to help Big Brother?" Xiao Nannan patted the Black Emperor, reminding him.

"Of course, This Emperor values righteousness the most!"

The Big Black Dog was very courteous to Xiao Nannan, confidently raising his head, appearing righteous and resolute.

"Damn, these two extremes even kill their own people." Li Heishui cursed his mother in anger, yet helpless. These two, when greedy, don't spare even their own, ready to really screw them over……

"Little Black."

Suddenly, Yang Zhu's voice came, making everyone delighted.

Yang Zhu and the Holy Maiden of the Jade Pool came from afar; upon seeing Xiao Nannan, the former was stunned for a moment.

"This little girl is called Xiao Nannan, she is……"

The Black Emperor immediately came over, a divine light flickered in his eyes; having the words on his lips, he glanced at the others and then fell silent.

"I know."

Yang Zhu nodded, naturally knowing this is the fruit of the Ruthless's Dao, never expecting to encounter it here.

Xiao Nannan also froze upon seeing Yang Zhu; her big eyes were like black gems, filled with innocent childishness and extraordinary clarity.

"Brother." She whispered, not at all afraid, she came up and tugged at Yang Zhu's cloak, raising her head to gaze at the person before her.

Ye Fan, Jiang Huairen, and the others exchanged glances, also somewhat incredulous.

"Hello, Xiao Nannan."

Yang Zhu picked up the little girl, examined her carefully, and nodded secretly.

"What a cute little girl." The Holy Maiden of the Jade Pool's beautiful eyes sparkled, she too was drawn in.

"Brother, Nannan seems to have seen you before, long long ago…… but Nannan can't remember."

The girl blinked her big eyes, clear and bright, carrying a special spirituality that easily endears her to others.

"Maybe so."

Yang Zhu's voice was very gentle; toward this little girl he felt an inexplicable fondness, hard to put into words.

By rights he should be a figure from tens of thousands of years ago, merely sealed into this lifetime; perhaps back then the Ruthless already knew of his existence? "You aren't the least bit afraid of me?" Yang Zhu wondered, after all it was their first meeting.

"Not afraid." The little girl shook her head repeatedly, her voice a bit childish: "Nannan can see everyone glowing, and you, Brother, are like a ball of light, warm; Nannan likes you very much."

Hearing that, Yang Zhu fell into contemplation; Xiao Nannan, as the fruit of the Ruthless Great Emperor's Dao, naturally can see some extraordinary things.

"Could it be that she really saw him?" the Black Emperor muttered softly, also pondering.

"Brother, someone wants to harm us, can you help Big Brother?"

Saying that, Xiao Nannan's eyes dimmed a little, her eye sockets involuntarily reddening; she didn't want to see Ye Fan hunted and plunged into danger.

After inquiring about the circumstances, it was learned that Ye Fan has feuded with many people; now it's unknown which faction spent a large sum to hire the Assassin Divine Dynasty.

Since a month ago, assassins have been eyeing him, occasionally launching strikes, impossible to guard against.

"Good."

Yang Zhu affectionately rubbed the little guy's head; he had taken not a few ruthless people's things, and having become acquainted with Ye Fan, naturally would not ignore it.

Those people come from the Kill God Divine Dynasty; they're not to be provoked. It's said that once they are invited out, it will be a fight to the death.

Ye Fan kindly reminded him that these days have really made him unable to find peace; if it weren't for his insufficient strength, he would truly want to slaughter all the assassins.

They're just a bunch of assassins who only hide in the dark; why should we fear them?

What strength and background does Yang Zhu have that he would fear these two killer organizations? The Hell and Mortal Realm two great Divine Dynasties can only make most powers wary, but for Yang Zhu they pose no threat at all.

To speak bluntly, Yang Zhu doesn't even fear the holy land that has produced a Great Emperor, let alone an Assassin Divine Dynasty that doesn't even have a Quasi-Emperor. (End of chapter)
