"Senior Sister, I can handle it."
Seeing Senior Sister’s stubbornness gave Lin Chen a headache.
Lin Chen knew well that now was not the ti to show off, but at the mont, there was no one else but him who could deal with the people from Moon Shadow Pavilion and gather intelligence.
Zhao Yijing was too familiar to the assassins of Moon Shadow Pavilion; naturally, infiltration was out of the question.
"I know you’re doing this for the sect, Junior Brother, but you have no idea how terrifying the assassins from Moon Shadow Pavilion are."
"Once your identity is revealed, if you fall into their hands..."
Zhao Yijing didn’t dare to continue, because she knew all too well the fate of those who fell into the hands of Moon Shadow Pavilion.
Falling into the hands of the assassins ant that death was the best form of release.
Moon Shadow Pavilion was one of the top assassin organizations in the entire Eastern Domain; if Jade Cauldron Sect truly beca a target, the consequences were unimaginable.
Despite Jade Cauldron Sect’s strength, it seed rather insignificant in front of Moon Shadow Pavilion’s massive assassin organization.
Moreover, the fact that Moon Shadow Pavilion and Black Cloud Sect were both under the sa powerful organization, Red Soul Hall, was unbelievable to Zhao Yijing. She felt that even the sect leader would have a great headache over this.
This was not sothing that Zhao Yijing could decide on her own. She didn’t want Lin Chen to die in vain, and even she felt fear at the ntion of Moon Shadow Pavilion.
"Junior Brother, you must co back with . This matter must be decided by the sect leader and Master."
Zhao Yijing was worried about Lin Chen and didn’t want him to return to Moon Shadow Pavilion.
"Don’t worry, Senior Sister, I have my ways. Even if I can’t gather any information, I won’t let myself be in danger. Do I look like soone who’s rushing to die?"
"Although Moon Shadow Pavilion has vast power, the head of their Great Fla Dynasty branch shouldn’t surpass our sect leader.
That’s why they resorted to such sches and plots instead of confronting Jade Cauldron Sect directly.
If he indeed discovers my identity, I also have ways to escape. Don’t worry."
"But still..."
However, Zhao Yijing remained worried and still refused to let Lin Chen go.
"No good, our location has been discovered, and the assassins from Moon Shadow Pavilion are on to us; we need to leave first."
As he spoke, Lin Chen grabbed Zhao Yijing’s hand and headed deeper into the cave.
As soon as Lin Chen had reached the area, he had Spiritual Bees watch outside and others to explore inside the cave. He discovered the cave wasn’t sealed, but rather, it extended to another area of the forest.
Through the Spiritual Bees, Lin Chen noticed there were over twenty pursuers, the strongest at the Fifth Layer of lding Earth Realm, with even the weakest at the Eighth Level of Spirit Gathering Realm.
With Lin Chen’s strength, breaking out was not difficult. Although Zhao Yijing was injured and couldn’t perform at her peak, dealing with these Earth lding Realm martial artists was not a problem for her.
However, with the sheer number of opponents, it was impossible for Lin Chen and Zhao Yijing to kill them all imdiately—if they attracted the attention of stronger mbers of Moon Shadow Pavilion, that would an trouble.
As Lin Chen and Zhao Yijing advanced, the assassins following behind were silently slain by their hands.
"Sothing’s not right; pass the command, tell them not to act separately and to gather together."
The leader of the assassins from Moon Shadow Pavilion suddenly sensed sothing was amiss and gave orders to the others.
Since discovering Zhao Yijing’s whereabouts in the cave, things didn’t seem right. Many of their brethren had gone inside, but as ti passed, so began to disappear, and no word ca back from them.
Next to the leading male, another assassin frowned tightly and hurriedly took out a Communication Token to send a ssage to the others.
At that mont, this leading male and two other assassins from Moon Shadow Pavilion were waiting at the other end of the cave.
They had already surveyed the terrain and found that the cave was connected. After learning that Zhao Yijing and others were hiding inside, he ordered his n to search the cave. It didn’t matter whether they could capture the injured Zhao Yijing, as long as they could drive the opposite party out.
"So as long as he waited at this end of the cave, once Zhao Yijing escaped, he was confident he could catch her."
Just then, noise emanated from inside the cave; it was Lin Chen and Zhao Yijing appearing.
"Heh, it seems my luck is good. No effort needed. Tell them to pick up the pace; the targets have left the cave, no need to linger inside."
The leading male spoke calmly, turning his gaze toward Lin Chen and Zhao Yijing, his eyes lighting up at the sight before him.
He found Zhao Yijing to indeed be a great beauty and thought to himself how the Helmsman and head of the pavilion had emphasized capturing her alive at all costs. He could hardly imagine how enjoyable it would be to toy with such a beauty before him.
With such thoughts, the look in his eyes beca sowhat lascivious, and he even started drooling, looking extrely lecherous.
As for the person beside Zhao Yijing, he indeed did not recognize him—only seeing him as a waste at the Eighth Layer of Spirit Gathering Realm.
Because when Lin Chen had previously visited Moon Shadow Pavilion, he wore a mask to conceal his appearance, and now that Lin Chen had removed the mask, the leading assassin naturally did not recognize him.
"Boss, there has been no response from them."
Next to the leading assassin, the one responsible for sending ssages furrowed his brows even more, having a bad premonition.
"Heh, no need for calls anymore. They have stayed in the cave forever, and as for you, you’ll be joining them soon."
Looking at the assassins from Moon Shadow Pavilion before him, Lin Chen smiled faintly and then unleashed an unmatched burst of speed, charging toward the three assassins.
Even Zhao Yijing beside him was extrely surprised, but she was concerned about Lin Chen’s strength. Her injuries hadn’t healed, and it wasn’t certain she could quickly kill the assassin in front of her at the Fifth Layer of lding Earth Realm.
The leading assassin before her was not like those in the cave earlier, with only the First or Second Layer of lding Earth Realm cultivation.
"Arrogant."
The leading assassin shouted angrily and then clashed with Lin Chen.
