Immortality Cultivation Era Chapter 172 Assassinating Yan Xiaomei

According to the address written in the text, Gao Ge arrives at the Four Season Hotel.

He checks in the hotel and makes the payment. With the room key, Gao Ge doesn't go to his room directly. Instead, he goes to the room indicated by the text. If it were not because he couldn't use the lift until he has the room key, he wouldn't spend the money at all.

Anyway, he has the invoice. He also keeps the train ticket. He must claim for the expenses after he returns to the Cultivation Academy. Every cent of his is not easily earned!

He arrives at the Room 1010 and knocks on the door. It is a man who opens the door.

"Come in."

Gao Ge enters the room and puts aside his suitcase. He sits down and doesn't get to speak when the man talks first.

"Did anyone follow you on the way?"

Gao Ge shakes his head.

It seems that the Dragon Court is quite cautious, which also indicates that the task must be rather dangerous and hard to complete.

Then the man lights up a cigarette and passes one to Gao Ge but Gao Ge shakes his head and rejects it.

Gao Ge looks the man up and down. The man is about 30 years old and Gao Ge has never met him before. What surprises Gao Ge is that this man's eyes are greatly different in size, which is rather obvious.

Probably displeased by Gao Ge's staring, the man frowns and blows a mouthful of smoke, saying, "Without further ado, this is the first time for our cooperation. I must tell you that you must follow my arrangement and not act without permission during your task."

Gao Ge nods his head and yet feels disgruntled.

However, since the man wants to take charge, Gao Ge is okay with that. In his eyes, taking charge means bearing more risks and responsibilities, which is the least thing that Gao Ge wants to do.

Then the man with different eyes throws a picture onto the table, saying, "This is your task. As long as we kill her, we can leave then."

"Ah?" Gao Ge is taken aback after looking at the picture on the table.

The girl in the picture happens to be the girl sitting opposite to him on the high-speed train. Although he only saw half of the face, he can still recognize her.

He suddenly feels a bit confused.

"Are we gonna kill her?"

"Nonsense!" The man flies into a rage after hearing Gao Ge's question, "What's wrong with your Killer School? We hire you to execute the assassination but you even have no idea what the task is?"

"Killer School?" Gao Ge is completely at a loss.

Since when he has become a member of the Killer School?

The Killer School is also a cultivation school. It is said that the school can date back to a private army formed by Li Jiancheng, the eldest son of Emperor Li Yuan in the early Tang Dynasty. Later on, a coup was mounted and Li Jiancheng died in the incident. However, the private army survived by luck but it didn't dare to show up anymore. Hence, it established itself as a school and became the Killer School. If you pay them, they can do anything for you.

It survives till now.

In fact, even the Shadow School used to be a part of the Killer School, which was responsible for collecting information. Afterwards, the Killer School killed someone who they shouldn't kill so the school was almost exterminated. Though it dodged a bullet by luck, it was separated into two schools. The Shadow School became an independent school. On the contrary, the Killer School gradually declined and turned into a second-class school. Their whereabouts are always mysterious, which is quite similar to the Shadow School.

Gao Ge is so muddled that he even starts to doubt whether he has got a wrong text.

"She is called Yan Xiaomei, 22 years old, the grand-daughter that the old master of the Yan Family loves most. The Yan Family is the first family in Guang City, in which there are three cultivators with the realm of Strength Protection. She is very tough to cope with so we can only find a way to assassinate her." The man slowly says.

"Okay. But why do we kill her?"

The man sneers, "This is none of your business. What you need to do is take the money and kill the target. Apart from that, nothing else is relevant to you. Understood? Tonight, she will attend a banquet. I will tell you the address. She is only a cultivator with the realm of Qi practicing. I don't think she is capable. Do you have any problem with killing her? Of course, if you need any weapon, I can prepare for you."

Gao Ge slightly nods his head but he doesn't say anything.

He is still a bit confused.

Yan Xiaomei is the one that he met on the high-speed train. Besides, judging from her words, she must be related to the Dragon Court and know his intention of coming to Guang City. Maybe she met him in advance only to clear out his doubt and prevent him from giving himself away. If so, Yan Xiaomei is on the same boat with him. Then does he need to kill the man with different eyes who asked him to assassinate Yan Xiaomei?

He thinks it over and feels that the Dragon Court will not do such an arrangement.

After all, the address is provided by the Dragon Court.

Therefore, the Dragon Court must be aware of the man's existence and his intention.

In terms of the Dragon Court's power, it is not difficult to kill such an unimportant person.

The only one thing that puzzles him is why Yan Xiaomei is a member of the Dragon Court and meanwhile the grand-daughter of the Yan Family.

As someone from an ancient martial arts family, why does she join in the Dragon Court?

The man puts out his cigarette in the ashtray, saying, "If you have any question, ask me now, but I hope the questions are related to the task."

"Who are you?"

"It is irrelevant to the task."

Gao Ge laughs, "Then I have no further questions."

Since the Dragon Court makes such an arrangement, they must have their intentions.

What he needs to do is do it step by step.

What confuses him is whether he should really take the opportunity to kill Yan Xiaomei. Is this one of the steps? Luckily, Yue Xincheng is not here. Otherwise, he will be scratching his head and shouting, "It's so freaking hard to figure out!"

Since he doesn't understand his situation yet, the only one thing Gao Ge can do is to wait for the cat to jump.

He returns to his own room and puts away the suitcase. After that, he takes out his phone and calls the number from which the text is sent to him.

Very soon the call is put through.

"Have you met the one you should see?" On the other of the phone comes the voice of a man.

"Who is that…"

"The one you can trust."

"Then what about…"

"Now your task is to assassinate Yan Xiaomei. Of course, you won't make it. You need to leave at once after failing your action and then someone else will contact you." The man on the other side of the call says smilingly, "How do you feel? Do you find it rather strange?"

"I just don't understand why you cannot make it clear to me? In that case, I can know the whole thing well in my heart."

The man stays silent for a moment.

After a while, the man finally says at a slow pace, "Do you think we should trust you?"

Gao Ge is speechless.
