Chapter 341
Jueying had many superiors. In the State of Yan, his superior was Lord Lord Yan Chun; he was Lord Lord Yan Chun's number one expert, specifically for eliminating dissidents for Lord Lord Yan Chun. But if two words were added before his name, such as "Luo Wang", then Jueying's superiors were truly too many.
In Luo Wang, assassins were divided into eight levels, categorized as "Heaven, Kill, Earth, Absolute, Chi, Mei, Wang, Liang". Among them, Chi, Mei, Wang, and Liang were the lowest levels; they were small ghosts, also commonly known as cannon fodder. Such assassins had no names, only numerical codes, until they completed many missions and could be promoted to become official members of Luo Wang.
Heaven, Kill, Earth, and Absolute were the level divisions for official members.
Jueying was an Absolute-level assassin of Luo Wang. A long time ago, he was sent by Luo Wang to the State of Yan to carry out missions, lurking by Lord Lord Yan Chun's side. Many years passed, and his strength advanced by leaps and bounds, long since incomparable to ordinary Absolute-level assassins. But because his mission had never been completed, his level could only remain at the Absolute level.
Regarding his identity in Luo Wang, basically very few people knew. As a result, this person who appeared abruptly and blocked him had actually exposed his identity in one sentence. Jueying was horrified and couldn't help but look at the newcomer.
The newcomer was dressed in black and looked extremely young.
Feeling Jueying's gaze, he spoke again: "What are you stunned for? Your superior has a mission to give you!"
Jueying came back to his senses. Because the other person had stated his background in Luo Wang, he couldn't help but ask the other person: "How can I be sure you are a member of Luo Wang? Do you have a token?"
Su Xuan had not expected Jueying to be so cautious.
He had originally intended to use words to trick Jueying, which would have been fun, but now Jueying was actually asking for a token.
This showed that the rules within Luo Wang were more rigorous than he had imagined.
Jueying looked at Su Xuan, wanting to see if Su Xuan could produce a token.
Immediately after, he only saw Su Xuan wave his arm. Jueying suddenly felt a sharp pain strike, and then, he discovered that his life was slipping away. In a state of extreme unwillingness, he fell to the ground and slowly died.
If Jueying had been willing to play this scene with Su Xuan, Su Xuan wouldn't have minded playing along and letting Jueying live a little longer. But he had asked Su Xuan for a token, and Su Xuan didn't have one, so Su Xuan couldn't continue the act and could only send Jueying to his death.
This could only be said to be Jueying's bad luck!
On the side, the seriously injured Gao Jianli, watching Su Xuan appear abruptly and then, in a few words, kill Jueying, felt horrified and couldn't help but ask Su Xuan: "Who exactly are you?"
Su Xuan said: "Who I am is not important. What is important is that I can help you save the person inside!"
Gao Jianli was silent. He thought of Su Xuan killing Jueying with a wave of his hand.
He knew Jueying's strength all too well; after all, he had personally experienced it earlier. That sense of despair was the only one in his life. Even after fighting him, Jueying had consumed some physical strength, but it had little effect on Jueying's actual strength.
And the result?
Su Xuan raised his hand, and Jueying died.
Gao Jianli really couldn't figure out how Su Xuan did it, but he could be sure of one thing: this person was a rare, top-tier expert in the world. If he had his help, rescuing Xuenü, and even escaping unscathed, would not be a difficult thing.
"What do I need to pay?" Gao Jianli was a smart man and immediately asked Su Xuan.
There is no love without reason in the world, nor is there hatred without reason. By the same token, so-called giving is actually the other party wanting something else.
Perhaps there really are people who help others selflessly, but Gao Jianli did not think the person in front of him was such a person.
Su Xuan smiled faintly, extremely mysterious. He raised his finger again and said one word to Gao Jianli: "Seal!"
Suddenly, Gao Jianli felt all the wounds on his body recover. No, they hadn't recovered, but they had stopped bleeding, and the pain had also disappeared.
This move of Su Xuan's was exactly the "Qi Sealing" technique he had used many times. By sealing the wounds, they stopped bleeding.
Gao Jianli's lost strength slowly recovered as the wounds stopped bleeding. He stood up, held his sword, and stood quietly beside Su Xuan.
Su Xuan took Gao Jianli and headed toward Lord Lord Yan Chun's room.

Before they even got close, they heard an angry voice coming from inside.
"You bitch, you have a lot of nerve!"
In the room, Xuenü was somewhat shocked. Halfway through her dance, she suddenly struck, preparing to kill Lord Lord Yan Chun with the white silk in her hand. As a result, Lord Lord Yan Chun's reaction exceeded her expectations; he actually grabbed the white silk in her hand and tore it apart.
"Are you very curious? Did you think I didn't know martial arts?"
Lord Lord Yan Chun looked at the stunned Xuenü, a sneer hanging on the corner of his mouth: "When I was young, I also personally led troops in battle. Also, people like you who attempt to assassinate me—over the years, I don't know how many there have been!"

Among them, there were certainly some killed by Jueying, but Jueying could not protect Lord Lord Yan Chun 24 hours a day. The lands of Yan and Zhao are full of heroes; in other words, there are many outlaws in the lands of Yan and Zhao. Lord Lord Yan Chun is notorious, and over the years, he has offended I don't know how many people, leading many to want to kill him.
Yet he did not die, which in itself explains some things.
Xuenü listened to Lord Lord Yan Chun's words, and her expression changed drastically.
She was anxious in her heart and immediately leaped out, graceful as a startled swan. However, her hands were extremely ruthless; holding the half-section of white silk, she manipulated it, winding it toward Lord Lord Yan Chun's throat.
Lord Lord Yan Chun stood up. Although he was proficient in some martial arts, he reacted the moment Xuenü struck at him.
But after all, he hadn't personally fought for many years, and his body had long been hollowed out by wine and lust, far from what it used to be. Seeing Xuenü pressing hard, he immediately retreated, and at the same time, his loud voice rang out: "Someone come!!"
Jueying and many guards were guarding outside. Lord Lord Yan Chun had no need to personally fight Xuenü. As long as the many guards arrived, Xuenü would have no choice but to be captured. He originally didn't intend to use force, but since Xuenü was so uncooperative, he could only use force.
A voice rang out, responding to Lord Lord Yan Chun: "Stop calling. Your men can't hear your voice. Even if you scream until your throat breaks, no one will come to save you!"
Lord Lord Yan Chun heard this voice, and his expression changed immediately.
