Chapter 2165: Happy Miner, Digging Ground Online

~8 min read 1,462 words

The atmosphere at the dining table was a bit weird. Amu was chewing meat food in large mouthfuls. It chewed even the bones into pieces. It ate so fragrantly.

Su Xiao was sitting aside, having finished his lunch. Looking at his appearance, he was preparing to take a nap in the afternoon.

And at the opposite side of the dining table, the female assassin Ghost Shadow was staring at Su Xiao. She didn't pay attention to the food in front of her, nor did she care about Amu on the side, but was always staring at Su Xiao. Looking at that appearance, she was looking for an opportunity to commit suicide at any time.

"The situation in Yalanse City is already chaotic enough, and now you guys are jumping out to stir up trouble."

Su Xiao spoke in a flat tone. If the Soul Speaker of the Moon God World was present, that old woman would definitely roar with grief and indignation: 'Don't believe any words of this 'demon', no! Don't talk to him at all!'

At the beginning, the Soul Speaker was arranged very miserably by Su Xiao. Although she didn't say anything, she provided Su Xiao with a lot of information.

Ghost Shadow was different from the Soul Speaker. The Soul Speaker just had a strong will and was not afraid of death, and didn't have training like Ghost Shadow, facing death with honor.

This was also the reason why Su Xiao didn't use the Endless Darkness Collar on Ghost Shadow. It wouldn't have any effect.

According to Su Xiao's observation and inference, the force behind this female assassin was a force that leaned toward order. Although this force was hidden in the darkness, its style of doing things leaned toward 'good'.

When Ghost Shadow assassinated Angry Lion Duke, if she killed all the servants nearby, she could at least hide for a period of time, but she couldn't do that. Killing innocent people indiscriminately violated her beliefs and faith.

Of course, this couldn't be said that the force behind Ghost Shadow was hypocritical. In Su Xiao's view, this force should be classified into the ranks of evil.

This force was likely formed with the belief of not killing innocent people indiscriminately and maintaining justice, and recruited members with this. If the high-level of this force asked Ghost Shadow to kill the nearby civilians when assassinating, Ghost Shadow's belief would be hit hard, which contradicted the belief she had always implemented, no, it should be to the extent of contradiction.

And the reason why Su Xiao felt that this force should be classified into the ranks of evil was because using other people's kindness was actually the greatest evil.

As for whether the behavior of this force was right or wrong, Su Xiao wouldn't judge it at all, or rather, if it wasn't for this force suddenly appearing to hinder him, he wouldn't care about the other party at all.

"Hidden in the darkness, but sticking to not killing innocent people indiscriminately."

Su Xiao spoke while tossing a soul crystal fragment into his mouth, chewing it carefully.

"Plus you guys are fighting against Saint-Descendants, what kind of faith is most suitable for you..."

Su Xiao looked at Ghost Shadow with a smile on his face, but Ghost Shadow just sat with her head hanging, her eyes dim and lusterless. She had already completed what she should achieve, and had no regrets in death.

Or rather, her heart had already died first at this time. Any idea of seeking survival would only implicate those brothers and sisters who were like family. Although there was no blood relationship, for Ghost Shadow, those were family.

'Time is up, Ghost Shadow, it's time for you... to achieve your mission.'

This was a sentence from Ghost Shadow's master before she set off. Although half a year had passed, she always remembered every word.

It seemed that she thought of those smiling faces, and Ghost Shadow's eyes became even dimmer. She had to die as soon as possible, otherwise, those 'family members' would be in danger.

"Hunting Saint-Descendants, in the name of gods, is most suitable. That first batch of Saint-Descendants were all god-devourers, so you guys use gods as beliefs or faiths, which is most suitable."

Su Xiao looked at Ghost Shadow with a flat tone, but Ghost Shadow, who was sitting opposite her, wanted to stand up and roar: 'Mortals cannot blaspheme gods.'

Unfortunately, she couldn't and didn't dare to do so. Once she did this, everything would be over. The force she was in would be exposed, and those smiling faces in her mind would face a devastating disaster. They couldn't confront the Sela Empire, this behemoth, head-on yet, and could only disintegrate this empire from the inside by assassinating high-level officials of the empire.

"Thanks for the information you provided. Eat as much as you want, this is what you deserve."

Su Xiao pushed a dining plate to Ghost Shadow, which contained a piece of meat with abundant juice.

"Ridiculous."

Ghost Shadow spoke for the first time. She smiled at Su Xiao, because the information Su Xiao inferred was not enough to threaten the organization she was in.

"Little sister, you seem to have not understood what we are talking about."

Baha spoke, it had already figured out what was going on.

"Whether you provided information to us or not is not important, but you are still alive, and, we already know that the organization behind you is assassinating Saint-Descendants in the 'name of gods', which is enough. You guess, after this news is leaked, will the organization you are in still believe in your loyalty? They will send people to silence you, even if the possibility of you surrendering is slim."

Hearing this sentence from Baha, Ghost Shadow smiled from the heart. This time she was completely relieved, because in her view, Su Xiao's plan had a huge loophole and could not succeed at all.

Ghost Shadow's willpower was very strong, but did this matter? Su Xiao only needed to let that organization know that Ghost Shadow had rebelled, which would make that organization restless. They would likely send people to silence Ghost Shadow, which was the opportunity.

Simply announcing to the outside world that Ghost Shadow had rebelled, that organization wouldn't believe it at all, and Su Xiao wouldn't treat his opponent as an idiot. He wanted to let people in that organization see with their own eyes that Ghost Shadow had rebelled.

Thinking of this point, Su Xiao first let Baha go to the Saint Court to find the old duke, and then took out a communicator.

Before Baha left, it sized up Ghost Shadow's figure. It was going to buy a set of bright clothes for the other party.

At most half an hour later, the main entrance of the residential house on the first floor was knocked. It was a combination of five men and one woman, the miner team arrived.

After the miner team arrived, they headed straight for the basement and began to set up mining equipment below. This was the old duke's property, and Su Xiao lived here occasionally, so who dared to check.

Not long after, Su Xiao felt the ground under his feet start to vibrate. The vibration only lasted for a few seconds before disappearing. The miner team had already entered the underground to prepare for the collection of blue ore.

The miner team had already become happy, and expressed their sincerity slightly, which meant that in terms of mining, they were professional.

And Ghost Shadow, after learning Su Xiao's plan, was completely relieved, because in her heart, her organization would never believe that she would rebel.

However, was this really the case? At the beginning, the Soul Speaker was also full of confidence, with an attitude of 'I'm not afraid of death, what can you do to me, Kukulin Bai Ye'.

But later, the Soul Speaker not only began to doubt life but also became severely autistic. In a certain negotiation, she just sneered at Su Xiao and was inferred a lot of important information by Su Xiao. ===== CHAPTER 2166 =====

After learning of Su Xiao's plan, Gui Ying felt completely at ease, because in her heart, her organization would never believe she would betray them.

However, is that really the case? The Soul Speaker was also full of confidence at the time, with an attitude of "I'm not afraid of death, what can you, Kuku Lin Bai Ye, do to me?"

But later, the Soul Speaker not only began to doubt life but also became severely autistic. During one negotiation, she merely sneered at Su Xiao, and Su Xiao deduced a great deal of important intelligence from it.
