Chapter 112 - The Unlucky Egg Was Struck By Lightning
After a severe brief misunderstanding, Qin Yi finally explained his intention to have Yin Cheng as a subordinate instead of a 'plaything.'
Of course, Yin Cheng, who was listening to this, couldn't help but feel very ashamed. The more he heard, the more he wanted to bury himself deep into the ground.
How could he think such disrespectful thoughts?
But he can't be blamed for this.
The way the black-cloaked man spoke previously was highly misleading. Anyone who heard it would ultimately go in a different direction.
Yin Cheng took a deep breath as he immediately cut off his train of thought. In a short time, he finally calmed his emotions as his face turned frosty as ever, and then-
Qin Yi, who had just finished explaining, was suddenly startled by Yin Cheng's behavior, who short fall into a knee in front of him.
Isn't that just a bit of a misunderstanding?
He helplessly was about to tell this teenager to stand up. However, before he could do that, he was stopped by Yin Cheng's solemn words...
"I, Yin Cheng, on behalf of the Shadow House, swear to dedicate my entire life to serving you, Master. As your most loyal subordinate, I will carry out all orders you command. Whether good or bad, all merit will come to you and all sins; I will shoulder it all with my body and soul. If I ever have the slightest thought of betrayal, Heaven will strike me with Its strongest lightning until I turn to nothingness and am unable to reincarnate!"
Kacha!
Boom!
Suddenly a booming sound of thunder could be heard from outside the house, scaring every creature in the surrounding area.
Near Yin Cheng's house, a small black snake was coiling its body on a tree branch. Its red and fierce eyes were looking at Yin Cheng's home.
Don't look at its small size; even though it looks like this, it is actually a Rank 3 magical beast and has lived for hundreds of years. Thus, its strength was equivalent to a Core Formation Realm cultivator.
Its Master sent it to this place to monitor Yin Cheng and his older sister's daily behavior. In addition, it also has the duty to eliminate everyone related to the siblings.
The cultivators in the city were afraid to approach the sibling is not without reason. Rumor has it that everyone who wants to hire the services of Yin Cheng's assassin skill always ends up tragically before their request is fulfilled.
Of course, the one who killed those people was not Yin Cheng but this black snake.
Today, the black snake saw Yin Cheng bringing an unknown man into his house. It's been a long time, and it doesn't know what they're doing and talking inside.
It knew that Yin Cheng was in dire need of money to treat his elder sister.
Could it be that an unknown man is here to treat Yin Cheng's elder sister?
Nah, it's impossible~
The poison in that woman's body could only be treated using its master's antidote.
Suddenly its thought went wild...
Has this brat finally lost his last dignity as a man?
He brought a wild and adult man into his house and spent a lot of time inside.
What else if it's not that "thing"?
What a shameless and slutty brat-
Suddenly, a loud rumbling roar interrupted its thoughts from above the sky.
It reflexively looked up, then its red and vicious eyes suddenly saw a purple lightning flash towards it-
It?
??!
Kacha!
Boom!
The purple lightning mercilessly strikes the unlucky egg. The lightning was so fast and powerful that even the formidable body of a Rank 3 black snake couldn't block it.
The black snake was utterly dumbfounded and confused...
Who am I?
Where am I?
What am I doing?
Those were its last thoughts before its stricken body began to fade and slowly dissipate into nothingness.
***
Somewhere in a luxurious palace, it is a room filled with music and intoxicating fragrances. A woman with a voluptuous body is being served by handsome male servants dressed in sexy clothes.
She was about to enjoy a cup of red wine that was in her hand, and suddenly her mouth spurted blood.
This site instantly dumbfounded the male servants.
"Xiao Hei..."
The voluptuous woman wiped the blood from her mouth as she said in both panic and anger, "My Xiao Hei disappeared- No, it's dead! Someone killed my Xiao Hei! Who is it?!"
Did that Shadow House brat kill Xiao Hei?
No, that's impossible!
That brat is only a Qi Condensation Realm cultivator. It's impossible for him to kill a Rank 3 magical beast.
Is that the City Lord who did it?
The more she thought it possible, the angrier she became.
"That slut always gets in my way. Back then, I was about to eradicate Shadow House, but that slut suddenly appeared out of nowhere to save those two siblings. If it weren't for the great sect behind that slut, I would have poisoned her with my Death Parasite Poison. Now, she even has the nerve to kill my beloved pet. How dare she!"
Thinking of this, the voluptuous woman's face became vicious as she suddenly called out, "Yin Ren!"
As soon as the name was called, the voluptuous woman's shadow suddenly split into two, and then that split shadow gradually transformed into a man.
The shadow man bowed his head slightly and clasped his hands while saying, "Sect Master, what's your order?"
"Kill the Shadow House's siblings and claim that book!" The voluptuous woman coldly ordered. She smirked and added, "Since that slut breached our agreement first, then she won't be able to blame anyone when she finds those siblings' dead bodies. Can you do that, Yin Ren? After all, those two siblings are also your siblings-"
The expression on Yin Ren's face remained unchanged. He replied without hesitation, "As you bid, Sect Master!"
Immediately, he transformed himself into a black shadow and disappeared from the voluptuous woman's sight.
The voluptuous woman looked at the spot where Yin Ren disappeared and said softly, "What a heartless guy~."
***
Meanwhile, Qin Yi looked slightly pale and shocked. His heart skipped a beat when he heard the sound of a lightning strike.
He didn't expect Yin Cheng to make an oath that could trigger the lightning from Heaven.
He heard that an oath in this world is very serious; one shouldn't carelessly make an oath. Otherwise, you will be struck by lightning if you violate it.
Qin Yi looked at Yin Cheng with a complicated face.
He just wanted an ordinary subordinate, but he got a knight instead.
It wasn't that he wasn't happy. He was just a little overwhelmed.
He opened his mouth and said complicatedly, "You... shouldn't make an oath carelessly..."
Yin Chen still lowered his head as he said solemnly, "Master, I don't regret my actions. Although I still don't know anything about your origin, identity, strength, or even your intentions, I have a feeling that either now or later, I will definitely not regret my decision. What's more important, you have saved my elder sister's life. That reason alone is enough for me to serve you wholeheartedly."
A tangle look formed on Qin Yi's face as he said, "How old are you?"
"Master, I am now fifteen, and next month I will turn sixteen." Yin Cheng replied.
So young!
'This brat is only two years younger than me,' Qin Yi thought in surprise.
Noticing something off on his master's face, Yin Cheng hurriedly said, "Master, even though I am young and still lacking many things, I'll make my utmost effort to protect you and carry out all your orders. Please accept my loyalty, Master!"
Qin Yi was silent for a while.
The thing had reached this point; what else was there to say?
He sighed and said helplessly, "Stand up. I accept your sincerity."
Hearing this sentence, Yin Cheng felt happy as he immediately stood up, "Thank you, Master."
But then, he suddenly remembered the most important thing here.
He's too eager to be his Master's subordinate, but he forgets that he still has an enemy outside there.
What if they're after Master because of me?
He suddenly became worried.
He spoke while looking at Qin Yi hesitantly, "Master, that-... my enemy..."
Qin Yi brushed it calmly, "Don't worry about your enemy. It's not like they can find me. They don't even know who I am; how are they supposed to find me?"
"But, Master. Ever since my elder sister and I lived here, I've always felt that someone was watching us from outside..." Yin Cheng said cautiously.
"Oh?"
Qin Yi was startled as he subconsciously looked out the window but felt nothing.
However, this fellow was born into an assassin family and had been trained as an assassin since childhood. Thus, his institution is probably right.
Qin Yi turned his head to Yin Cheng and said with a smile, "Yin Cheng, do you know what I am the most skilled at?"
Yin Cheng shook his head.
He and his master only met today, how could he know such an important thing about his master?
"That's running away!" Qin Yi laughs.
Yin Cheng went blank for a moment, and then he applauded, "Wow, Master is amazing!"
Qin Yi was proud as he stuck his hands around his waist.
"But Master, what about my elder sister? I can't possibly leave her here alone while we're running away..." Yin Cheng hesitantly said.
"That's not something you should worry about when I'm around. Just wait for a moment." Qin Yi responded with confidence.
Inside his head...
'System, quickly extract them. Don't leave their bloodlines!'
The system, "...."
