Transmigrated To Another World: General, I'm Not Your White Moonlight - Chapter 36

Assassinated (2)
The man nodded and left without saying anything. When he came out, the servants had already prepared the horse. The man mounted his horse and galloped away.

Watching the man leave in a hurry, the servant turned to look at the steward and said with a smile, “Boss, it seems we made a lot of money from this transaction.”

The steward stroked his beard and said meaningfully, “Of course. But this might be that guest’s last visit.”

Having worked at the relay station for over three years, the servant had learned that knowing too much could get him killed. So, the servant didn’t ask the steward anything and just smiled, then went back to continue his work.

After leaving the relay station, the man rode non-stop for several hours. As night fell, a group of people suddenly appeared and blocked his way. When the man saw that they were all holding swords and covered their faces with black masks, he knew that these people were assassins sent to kill him.

The man tightened his grip on his sword, whipped his horse, and rode faster. Unfortunately, the assassins set a trap, and the horse tripped over the black rope.

Thud!

Before falling to the ground, the man kicked the saddle and jumped into the air. The moment the horse fell down, he used his internal energy to activate his lightness skill.

Seeing this, the assassin’s leader makes a set of hand gestures. Seeing the hand gestures, the assassins jumped up and chased after the man.

When the man noticed that the distance between himself and the assassin was slowly widening, the man discovered that his lightness skills were better than those of the group of assassins behind him.

Knowing that only by making full use of this advantage could he survive this disaster, the man gritted his teeth and increased his speed. It wasn’t long before the assassins were left far behind.

Losing his target, the assassin leader landed lightly on the ground. He took a flare from the small cloth bag tied around his waist and pulled the cord.

Psiu~ Bang!

After releasing the flare, the leader raised his hand and clenched it. Seeing this, the assassins nodded and disappeared at the same time.

As for the man, after losing his horse, he had no choice but to run to the next relay station to get a new horse. Along the way, he patted the secret memorial hidden in his clothes from time to time.

A few hours later, the assassins knelt before a man. The leader raised his eyes and looked at his master’s back. Seeing the tightly clenched hands on his back, the leader knew that his master was furious.

Since punishment is inevitable, the leader lowers his eyes and waits for his master to pronounce their death sentence.

After a long silence, the leader heard his master say, “Thirty lashes for each of you. If you fail again, come back with your head.”

The leader secretly breathed a sigh of relief and said, “This subordinate accepts the order.”

“Go.”

With their master’s permission, the leader and the assassins left the spacious study. After they left, the man turned and walked to the window. Looking at the crescent moon hanging in the starry sky, the man took off his black mask. After taking off the black mask, a handsome but pale face can be seen.

He clenched his black mask and muttered slowly, “It seems that I have to clean up the mess as soon as possible to prevent those idiots from dragging me down.”

As soon as he finished speaking, the black mask cracked and split into two halves. The man looked at the broken black mask and threw it away coldly.

After a long silence, he said, “Someone, come.”

A few seconds later, a middle-aged man walked in, lowered his head, and asked, “Master, what are your orders?”

Without turning to look at the middle-aged man, he said, “The bugs in Qianshan County need to be taught a lesson.”

Hearing this, the middle-aged man clasped his fists and said, “This subordinate understands.”

After the middle-aged man left, the man stared at the moon for a long time. That night, a group of highly skilled assassins broke into Li Junwang’s mansion. According to rumors, after that night, Li Junwang fell ill and could not get out of bed for a long time.

Different from the restlessness that night in Li Junwang’s mansion, Duan Yixin slept very well. Because of her biological clock, she woke up before dawn. After washing her face, she went to the kitchen to prepare breakfast.

She took out the remaining coarse grains from the warehouse, filled the rice jar with them, and took out a packet of medicinal herbs. Since a lot of things happened after she woke up in this body, Duan Yixin had no time to nourish this weak body. But now, without the problem caused by Duan Sida and Duan’s family, she finally has time to improve her physical condition.

Duan Yixin opened the packet of medicinal herbs and washed it carefully. She had nothing but a small bottle of oil and a little bit of coarse grains, so she could only cook a pot of simple medicinal porridge.

It took her more than an hour to cook the medicinal porridge. Just as she turned off the fire on the small stove, she heard Chi Xinru’s voice coming from the front yard.

“Xin Xin, are you at home?”

Duan Yixin glanced at the dark sky and thought, ‘Why did Xinru come so early? Is there an emergency?’

With this thought in mind, she left the kitchen and walked to the front yard. As soon as she walked out of the house, Chi Xinru hurriedly walked up to her and said, “Xin Xin, I’m sorry to disturb you so early, but I need your help.”

Seeing her anxious look, Duan Yixin patted her hand and said, “Tell me slowly, what happened that you came to me so early today?”
