The Assassination (2)
The spirit girl was perfect, there wasnât a flaw you could pick on. However, it couldnât beat what Princess Longji had because she lacked the aura a real person would have. If she had that breath of life, then she would beat them.
Of course, although the spirit girl lacked this point, it was only this one point. Her perfection could still beat most, and the people above her were only a very small percentage, probably so few you could count them with your fingers!
âWe donât have time to contemplate on her beauty, Iâm leaving!â said Coldblood Five, jumping onto the ground. She disappeared.
At this moment, all attention was on Princess Longji. No one would ever notice a little person running past their ankles. Then again, Coldblood Fiveâs camouflage abilities were powerful. She knew how to blend into different backgrounds. You wouldnât believe that there was someone right before your eyes. Even if they stared, they still wouldnât be able to spot her.
Coldblood Seven understood this too. She directed her attention to the general situation.
At this point, Coldblood Seven suddenly realised there wasnât just her own team working in the field. There were many more working at the same time.
Although they didnât know who was assigned, if Coldblood Group members met each other, they would know!
And Coldblood Seven, as a high-ranking member, how could she not know her own team?
She didnât know how her team entered. It seemed like they had used a very believable, honest identity. She only knew that these members, without other people knowing, had already formed a circle around the princess. They could act at any moment now.
She thought that since the Coldblood group had sent the three of them first, no other member would act first before they did.
To make backup plans was a normal thing, but these backup plans were always executed after the mission failed, not during the operations of the mission.
Forget it. Perhaps they were only going to operate after her team failed.
That was the only explanation. Looks like this mission had to be non-stop, and the organisation couldnât rest if Princess Longji wasnât dead. The group was willing to pay a huge price.
This was also Coldblood Sevenâs mindset.
âColdblood SevenâŠâ Not long after she left, Coldblood Five was back.
âWhat happened? Did you succeed?â asked Coldblood Seven, puzzled.
âNo, Iâve failed!â she said, exasperated.
â?? Why?â
âI now understand why they need the spirit girl. Princess Longji has a very special Qi field around her. Anyone using Qi and magic would be expelled out!â Coldblood Five continued, âIf only I had my original size, perhaps I couldâve tried.â
The smaller the person, the larger the effect of the Qi field. Coldblood Five was repelled far away. If it werenât for her size, someone wouldâve seen her.
âThe spirit can disrupt the field?â Coldblood Seven didnât understand.
âThe little idiot mentioned that the spirit was a very special entity. Its abilities arenât related to Menqi and magic at all, so this field wouldnât work on the spirit!â
âOh. What does Princess Longji have on her to have this power?â
âI think it might be an ancient amulet with defensive powers!â Coldblood Five could only offer this explanation.
âCanât you approach her without using Menqi?â asked Coldblood Seven. She knew the answer would be a no or Coldblood Five wouldnât be here.
âNope. Princess Longji is an expert. Sheâd definitely notice if I approach!â Coldblood Five shook her head, âWe have to look for another method now. Perhaps we could poison her. Iâll go look for other ways. If they donât work, then weâll have to look for a way to wake the idiot up!â
âIf you need to poison her, then I can do it! Iâll trick her into drinking the poison like a good girl!â beamed Coldblood Seven proudly, smoothening her clothes. Coldblood Five had already disappeared.
â...â
âSister Longji, youâre back! Iâve missed you!â whined the little princess, running to Princess Longji.
âYou brat, Iâve missed you too! Have you been a good girl?â said Princess Longji warmly, smiling.
âI am a good girl! Thatâs why I was bullied by a mean woman!â The little princess was obviously taking the opportunity to get Princess Longji to teach the spirit girl a lesson.
Princess Longji was stunned for a moment. âThis mean woman, who is she? Who dares bully my sister?â she asked immediately.
âItâs herâŠâ The little princess immediately dragged Princess Longji towards the spirit girl. Princess Longji wasnât interested in small talk with the rest of the guests anyway, so she tagged along.
âUhâŠâ Coldblood Seven and Five noticed that the heavens must have been helping themselves. Princess Longji herself was walking towards them, making it so much easier.
If only Ye Lang were awake, they thought. Then killing her would be so easy!
However, they also found it very odd. It had been weird since the beginning as if opportunities to assassinate her were showing up at their doorstep.
This mission was supposed to be the hardest mission ever, but it suddenly became very, very simple. As long as Ye Lang knew how to make use of his opportunities, killing her would be as simple as chopping vegetables. It was getting more and more peculiar as if there was another person guiding them! If someone close to Ye Lang heard of this, theyâd only smile and say, âThis is normal, itâs not peculiar at all! This is all arranged by his other mother. Whoâs his other mother? Lady Luck of course!â
âYou mean woman!â shrieked the little princess at the spirit girl, who was bent over the table. The spirit girl, naturally, didnât respond.
â??âPrincess Longji looked at the spirit girl, puzzled. They couldnât believe someone would be able to sleep at an event like this. Even they themselves wouldnât do something so uncultured.
âIâm sorry, Princess Longji, itâs my cousinâs narcolepsy. Sometimes sheâd suddenly fall asleep like this. Sheâll be awake soon. Letâs drink a glass while waiting for her!â said Coldblood Seven politely. She would never let this opportunity go.
âThatâs odd! Can we wake her up?â Princess Longji, on the other hand, was being very straightforward instead of choosing to wait. She only wanted to speak to the little princessâ bully. It wouldnât take too much time anyway.
âAbout that⊠We canât wake herâŠâ Coldblood Seven smirked. If she were awake, you would be dead. Do you think youâd still be talking to her?
