The girl said, somewhat annoyed.

After hesitating for a moment, the girl looked at the young Shen Qiu and asked.

"Hey, what's your name?"

"Shen Qiu..."

"Shen Qiu, that's a nice name. My name is Nan Qingxue. I'm asking you, would you like to come with me? Well, that means to live with me. But I need to warn you beforehand that the work I do is extremely dangerous. You should be mentally prepared."

The girl sighed, seemingly helpless.

"I do!" Without much thought, I blurted it out without hesitation.

"Hey, I'm reminding you again, being with me is extremely dangerous. You should think it over carefully..."

"I do!" This time, she answered before the girl could finish speaking, and the girl's face showed a hint of helplessness, but also a smile.

"Is there anything you need to prepare?"

"no!"

"That makes things much easier. I'll take you to buy some clothes first, then you can take a shower. Look how filthy you are. After you shower and change, I'll take you to get something to eat..."

What happened next? Well, it wasn't until she was a little older that she realized the girl's parents were assassins who had been killed years ago when their enemies came looking for her to escape.

After spending a few peaceful years in her rural hometown, she took over her parents' profession and ventured out on her own. That trip to K City was her first mission.

"Hey, you brat, I'm asking you a question."

"Hey, hey, hey, what are you pretending for? (bbdd) Did you even hear me?"

A burst of noise interrupted my thoughts. When I looked up, I found that three thugs, who seemed to have appeared out of nowhere, were staring at me with greedy eyes.

"Hey, you're dressed nicely. That ring on your finger must be worth a lot of money, right? We're a bit short on cash lately, want to borrow some?"

As they spoke, bursts of laughter erupted.

Those around who witnessed this either pretended not to see it and moved aside, or quickly walked past, afraid of getting caught up in it themselves. Judging from their behavior in the vicinity, these people were probably "regulars" here.

"What if I don't lend it to you?" Shen Qiu said with a slight smile.

"Ok?"

The leader of the thugs was stunned for a moment, as if he hadn't expected Shen Qiu to say such a thing. In his experience, most people would obediently pay up to avoid trouble when faced with a large and powerful group.

"Pah! We've really met a tough nut to crack. Brother Cheng, why waste so much breath on him? We've run into tough guys before. After we took one of their arms, they still had to kneel down and beg for mercy."

Before the leader, a thug called Brother Cheng, could speak, the short thug behind him spoke up menacingly.

"So many years have passed, and the security situation hasn't improved at all..." Shen Qiu sighed softly. For ten years, things have remained the same, and this place is like a forgotten corner.

"What did you say?" The gang leader, Cheng Ge, suddenly pulled a dagger from his pocket.

"I said I would pay you, gentlemen, but there are too many people around here, so it's not a good idea. I think that alley over there is much better. How about we go there and I'll pay you?"

At this moment, Shen Qiu changed to an innocent young man's expression, which, combined with his rather delicate face, made him look quite pitiful.

"Ok?"

Brother Cheng was a bit dumbfounded. It seemed that after so many years of robbing and extortion, this was the first time he had encountered a victim who would think of him.

"Hey, Green Skin, what's going on? Could it be a trap?" After hearing Shen Qiu's words, Brother Cheng suddenly hesitated and asked the somewhat short thug behind him.

"Brother Cheng, there are too many of us to do anything to him. Besides, look at this kid, he has fair skin and delicate features. I don't know what brand his trench coat is, but it's probably expensive. He seems to be the son of some rich man."

"After we've robbed him, we might even kidnap him and extort some money from him. Then we brothers will have money and live a carefree life, and we won't have to do this robbery business anymore."

"You're really something, Qingpi! If you succeed, I'll give you the lion's share!" These words made Brother Cheng's heart itch, so he stopped thinking about it.

"Hmph, I bet you wouldn't dare do anything. Just come over here obediently!"

Chapter 94: Moon Silver Unsheathed - Sudden Murder (Please Subscribe)

Shen Qiu coldly put away the moon silver in his hand, and what lay before him was a scene that resembled a hellish landscape.

Severed limbs and mangled remains were everywhere, and blood splattered all over the walls on both sides of the alley.

The head that rolled to the side on the ground had its pupils wide open before it died, as if it never expected that the docile boy who was just a second ago would suddenly turn violent and kill people.

Shen Qiu dislikes killing, but he never shies away from killing. He once said when facing Gilgamesh, one of the oldest kings, that he had no interest in being a masochist and praising the name of the person he had humiliated.

He didn't use any abilities; even with just his basic attributes, he was already several times stronger than ordinary people. To him, a few thugs were as laughable as monkeys in a tree.

Water automatically seeped from the Moon Silver blade, washing away the blood. This sight reminded Shen Qiu of another demonic sword—Muramasame, which, according to legend, would do the same thing after killing someone.

Looking at the limbs scattered on the ground and the blood flowing everywhere, Shen Qiu had a thought. A purple energy slowly seeped out from his body, covering the blood and limbs on the ground, and all traces disappeared.

This is the energy of the void; no matter can escape its annihilation.

While it might sound arrogant to say this now, considering it's only a rudimentary form of prophetic bloodline, even something as basic as Adamantium is difficult to annihilate instantly; it would probably take several days to destroy just one kilogram.

But on its own planet, there is nothing that can stop it.

After putting the Moon Silver back into his spatial ring, Shen Qiu quickly left. His time was very limited, and he had to make the most of every second; he had already wasted a lot.

"Boss, one large bowl of wontons and two sesame seed cakes, please."

"okay!"

Stepping into this city always brings a sense of familiarity. After ordering a bowl of wontons at a roadside stall, Shen Qiu took out his phone—thank goodness he hadn't left it behind in the real world but had transferred it over with him.

This phone is important because of the killer app stored inside it. It's internal software that's not easy to obtain normally.

"That guy... he's still alive!"

After taking out his phone, Shen Qiu did a quick search and discovered the news he had caused. To his surprise, the son of a high-ranking official hadn't died; he had been saved by doctors and, after two months in bed, had resumed his carefree life.

Looking at the face on his phone that wasn't much older than his previous self, an unavoidable murderous intent surged within Shen Qiu.

Let's go back to more than half a year ago.

During the time I followed Sister Nan, although I learned some assassin skills from her, I was always just a half-baked amateur due to congenital deficiencies and malnutrition.

All I could do was follow behind Sister Nan like an assistant, taking good care of her logistics, offering advice, cooking, washing clothes, and so on, until that mission.

After accepting the mission to assassinate the Party Secretary of K City on the APP, everything went smoothly until she broke into his house and discovered something ironic—she had fallen into a trap, and everything had been pre-arranged.

This matter wasn't particularly difficult to explain, because the Party Secretary of K City had already received the news. His family had informants on the side that issued the task, and Nan Jie's every move was under his control.

"Hmph, what do you think you are? Let me tell you, in my eyes you are nothing but stray dogs. You'll bite anyone for money. In front of us real big shots, you're not even as good as house dogs!"

This is what Shen Qiu heard through the mini radio on Sister Nan's body.

"But you're not bad looking. If you're willing to serve me well, I might spare your life... Damn it, you still dare to attack me even in this state! Beat you up, beat you to death!"

This was the last thing he heard, and whenever he thought about it, he felt a sense of disorientation.

"Yes, to those who came before and after them, we're nothing more than dogs, and why is that? Simply because of power..."

After getting a new SIM card, Shen Qiu dialed the number of an information broker that Sister Nan had been in contact with.

"Hello, who is this?...?"

Hua Ling never answers calls from strangers. Years of working as an intelligence broker have made him incredibly sensitive to everything around him, and his counter-surveillance skills are top-notch. Even after being wanted by the Ministry of Public Security for three years, they haven't been able to catch him, and he continues to thrive.

But for some reason, he received this call today.

"I want you to investigate the person who posted order number 1440 on the Killer App. I know you have the ability, Hua Ling. I will pay you 1 million upfront, and I will give you an additional 4 million after you find the information."

As soon as Hua Ling received the call, she knew that the person on the other end was definitely not simple.

"The killer app has an extremely high level of secrecy; no one can trace who is issuing these secret missions. This isn't a matter of money, but a matter of technology..."

Without even thinking, Hua Ling directly rejected Shen Qiu's request.

"1000 million, five million as an advance payment."

"I told you this isn't about the money..."

"Fifty million, twenty-five million in advance."

"make a deal!"

Upon hearing the voice on the other end of the phone, Shen Qiu revealed a mocking smile. There is nothing that is truly impossible to do; if something cannot be done, it simply means that the bargaining chips are insufficient.

"Five hours, I'll only give you five hours. I know you have the ability, Hua Ling." After saying this, Shen Qiu hung up.

Meanwhile, Hua Ling was in a state of extreme excitement.

"Fifty million! Fifty million! That's a huge sum of money! With fifty million, what information brokers, what life on the edge, what rules of the assassin world? To hell with it all!"

Shen Qiu is right. The so-called confidentiality is nothing more than a string of code. It is not a difficult thing for a professional like Hua Ling. It is just that no one dares to do it because of the authority of the Assassin Alliance.

But what does it matter once the benefits reach a certain level?

"Once I get this 50 million, I'll smuggle myself to Southeast Asia, then from Southeast Asia to the United States, and live the life of the elite..."

Shen Qiu simply ate his wontons while gazing at the brightly lit city.

Money, which ordinary people covet, is one of the least valuable things to the Supreme God, and can be exchanged for just a few reward points.
