Chapter 110: Chapter 24: Ten Great Killing Gods"Her words? I need to weigh them myself before making any decisions," as soon as the voice fell, a pair of hands stretched out from the black robe. On Lake Heart Island, everyone was stunned. First, it was because of the cryptic comment from the person in the black robe. Weighing? Yue Jinghua is not a piece of pork, how else does one weigh? What astonished them a moment later, however, were the hands that extended from the black robe. Yue Jinghua had never seen such a pair of hands before. They were slightly longer than a woman’s fingers, but less rough than a man’s hands at the joints. Gleaming white, they were like the light of fireflies, having never been touched by the wind, sunlight, or perspiration, without a single pore in sight. It was such a hand that made Ni Qianjun’s already unfriendly face turn even stranger as he blurted out: "You are the Jade Finger Killing God!" Cold sweat trickled down from Ni Qianjun’s forehead. Unexpectedly, the newcomer was one of the Ten Great Assassins. The Ten Great Assassins had made their name a century ago and had maintained their fearsome reputation for nearly a hundred years. Rumor had it that the Ten Great Assassins were not a single individual but rather ten assassin families. The so-called Ten Great Assassins referred to the leaders of these ten great assassin families. No one knew their identities, nor had anyone seen their faces. In the Assassin Alliance, the Ten Great Killing Gods, much like the Five Mercenary Kings beyond the mercenaries, were esteemed and peerless entities. Among the Ten Great Killing Gods, nine are known for their signature fatal moves. Take Qianji Kill God Pusa Man as an example, her methods of killing are numerous: even a single leaf or flower could become a death sentence in her hands. Jade Finger Shura Qian, however, was an anomaly among them; he never used overly flamboyant Dark Techniques nor wielded a Spiritual Artifact of Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures to kill. His killings relied solely on the ten fingers of his hands. With a move of his jade fingers, beauties turn to white bones, and warriors buckle at the knees. Without discussing the myriad killing methods and renowned names of the Ten Great Killing Gods, one thing is undeniable. The cultivation of the Ten Great Killing Gods generally ranges between the Dark Heavenly Peak and the Yin Yang Pill Realm, comparable to that of the Five Mercenary Kings.

They were beyond the likes of today’s attendees: Ni Qianjun of the Heavenly Dark Realm, Feng Buhui of the Dark Earth Realm, and Yue Jinghua, who was not of any realm. "Dark Heavenly youngster, you do have some discernment, worthy of being a rising talent in the Mercenary World. I am in a rather good mood today. The little girl behind you witnessed everything that transpired on Lake Heart Island last night, and I shall borrow her for a bit. As for you and that little mercenary with the crossbow, I can ensure you leave safely," the man in the black robe chuckled eerily, that laugh sending shivers down one’s spine. Just this morning, the blood mist that had shrouded Dan Demon Tomb for hundreds of years had dissipated. What had happened inside Dan Demon Tomb, what tragedy had occurred on Lake Heart Island, was known to none but Yue Jinghua alone. "Since you are one of the famous Ten Great Assassins, a well-known senior, you should remember the agreement between the Mercenary Guild and the Assassin Alliance. It is forbidden for mercenaries and assassins to fight in private," Ni Qianjun stood tall, without moving an inch. The hand he held behind him gripped Yue Jinghua’s firmly, refusing to let go. The Mercenary Guild and the Assassin Alliance, as two major organizations on the continent, both operate businesses that take others’ money to solve their problems. In the initial hundred years, there had been several major conflicts between them. The most severe one occurred about three hundred years ago, when a Killing God Venerable among the Ten Great Killing Gods and the first master of the King of Mercenaries fought each other, and both perished. This was an irreplaceable loss for both the Assassin Alliance and the Mercenary Guild. Thus, after the battle at the peak, the Assassin Alliance and the Mercenary Guild reached a secret pact: if there is a conflict of interests between mercenaries and assassins, they must compete jointly rather than fight each other. Violators will be jointly hunted down by the Assassin Alliance and the Mercenary Guild. This accord had been one of the rules of the mercenaries and the Assassin Alliance for hundreds of years, rarely broken by anyone. The eyes of the Jade Finger Killing God seemed to penetrate, moving past Ni Qianjun’s broad shoulders and fixating on Yue Jinghua behind him. The air filled with evident displeasure, "An agreement? To hell with the agreement. Do I look like someone who would abide by agreements? Such agreements are nothing but pacts among the weak." Even if they borrowed the courage of Dark Beasts, the Mercenary Guild and the Assassin Alliance wouldn’t dare to pursue one of the Ten Great Assassins, the Jade Finger Killing God. The hand that was holding Yue Jinghua suddenly tightened, and she could feel the sweat forming in the palm of Ni Qianjun’s hand. Ni Qianjun had forgotten that what made Jade Finger Asura famous was not only his bloodless hands but also his temperament. Unpredictable, he never played by the rules. When he decided to kill, it made no difference whether his target was a noble from the Inner Court or a renowned Mystic Strong. He killed freely and with relish. A flick of the jade fingers spared none; his offer to let Ni Qianjun and Feng Buhui leave unharmed was already an unusual mercy, likely out of respect for Ni Huo, the King of Mercenaries. "If she is here, I am here. If she goes, I shall not cling to life either," declared Ni Qianjun, standing tall and proud, as gentle ripples spread across the Blood Lake. Ni Qianjun’s words fell on the other’s ears but sounded like the lifelong vows of foolish lovers in this world. Yue Jinghua was slightly taken aback; she had not expected Ni Qianjun to regard her so highly. Ni Qianjun, as if no one else was present, turned around to face Yue Jinghua. In his eyes, there was a momentary loss of focus, and Yue Jinghua remembered that once someone had said the same to her. Even though she did not know the origins of the Jade Finger Killing God, she could tell from Ni Qianjun’s protective behavior that he was definitely not a mediocre opponent. "Ni Qianjun, have you gone mad?" Lihua Xue’s pretty face abruptly changed, she could not believe that Ni Qianjun would go so far for Yue Jinghua that he would risk a scenario where both could perish. "With me here, still want to play the hero, tsk tsk, I take back what I said earlier, I’ve decided..." Atop the Blood Lake, the waves surged, casting numerous shadows. A warm feeling spread across Yue Jinghua’s face, as a jade-like, pale hand from in front of Ni Qianjun pierced through the air. "Retreat," the movement technique of the Jade Finger Killing God was so swift it made onlookers stare, fearing that if they blinked, he would have already approached like a specter, leaving them unguarded. Dark Energy burst forth from behind Ni Qianjun, like a pair of invisible hands pushing Yue Jinghua several yards away. Just then, Feng Buhui, who had coordinated with Ni Qianjun many times, bellowed and his crossbow fired several bolts in quick succession. The whooshing sound of the crossbow and the hissing of the scythe turned into red and white flashes in an instant, encircling the Jade Finger Xiu Luo. The figure in black robe nonchalantly flicked his sleeve, and the sharp, cold-gleaming crossbow arrows, when still a few inches from the black robe, fell to the ground as if they had hit an invisible wall. Ni Qianjun thrust out his Blood Scythe, flashing red, swooping towards the fingers of Jade Finger Xiu Luo. It was like plucking a flower, two fingers lightly flicked the scythe’s blade with deceptive ease. The scythe, as if pulled by a mighty force, jerked backward, unable to advance a further inch towards the black robe. "Dark Heavenly child, not even your elder brother is my match, what makes you think, with your half-baked Dark Heavenly cultivation, you could do anything to me?" Yue Jinghua watched, dumbfounded. The fingers of Jade Finger Xiu Luo paused a few inches from Ni Qianjun’s Blood Scythe, but no matter how hard Ni Qianjun tried, the scythe seemed to be held in mid-air by a pair of strong hands, unable to advance the slightest bit. Lihua Xue was also secretly shocked at the side; the strength of Jade Finger Xiu Luo was beyond her expectations. When her elder sister Li Geshu praised Jade Finger Xiu Luo before, she still had some disdain in her heart. You must know that for assassins like Jade Finger Xiu Luo, ordinary money simply couldn’t entice them. His willingness to intervene on behalf of Lihua Xue this time also had a special cause. The fingertips of the Jade Finger Killing God loosened slightly, and as he withdrew his strength, the ground beneath Ni Qianjun’s feet sunk slightly. Jade Finger Killing God suddenly withdrew his hand. But the force applied to Ni Qianjun did not retract. "Hiss," Ni Qianjun’s red robe leather armor shattered into pieces, becoming like a flock of red butterflies with broken wings. His body was burdened as if a great mountain weighed upon him, unable to move forward or back. A realm? Was this the imposing pressure of a realm that only a Dan Realm Expert could exert? Ni Qianjun found it difficult to move an inch. The absolute suppression of strength was akin to the situation where an ordinary Dark Beast faced a Holy Beast—the absolute gap in power. "I detest men trying to look cool in front of me the most, especially when..." Jade Finger Xiu Luo’s voice carried a magnetic sound, mixed with inexplicable emotions. Feng Buhui was already entangled in combat with Lihua Xue, and the situation on the field was very unfavorable for the Rebellion Mercenary Group. Yue Jinghua stood aside, neither fleeing nor leaving. She knew that in front of a master assassin like the Jade Finger Xiu Luo, she was nothing but an ant, and if someone was marked for death, they could only wait with a clean neck ready for the slicing. The black robe fluttered, and Jade Finger Xiu Luo strolled leisurely in front of Yue Jinghua, his voice quite pleased: "Why don’t you run?" "If running was useful, there wouldn’t be so many dead people in the world," said Yue Jinghua calmly, her sharp eyes interestedly watching the approaching Jade Finger Killing God, "Besides, why should I run? Senior, you merely wish to inquire about the whereabouts of the Devil Crystal; I’ll just tell you."
