The Prince Wants to Assassinate Me Every Day

Ye Qichi listened, his face somewhat grave.

"Seven people remain." Xiang Qin continued, "Among you, the one with the best martial arts is Xiao Wu, followed by Yuan Wenkang. Xiao Wu's skills are probably on par with mine. He has to protect Prince Chen and fight the assassins simultaneously, which will be quite strenuous. At most, two or three assassins could take down Xiao Wu. The same goes for Yuan Wenkang. So, seven people coming to assassinate Prince Chen and you is a piece of cake."

Ye Qichi pressed his lips together.

If Xiang Qin hadn't been one of her own people early on.

This time, they would have truly been in grave danger.

She asked, "How is your physical condition?"

"Miss Ye is asking if I've taken your medicine?" Xiang Qin confirmed.

"Yes."

"This time when the poison acted up, I naturally took the antidote you provided. My body is fine, just like when taking the antidote from the Ten Extremes Sect," Xiang Qin replied.

"We need to move up our plan," Ye Qichi decided swiftly.

Xiang Qin looked at her.

"The assassins of the Ten Extremes Sect are all orphans. Called orphans, they were merely children who were kidnapped, then taken to the Ten Extremes Sect for brutal training. Some people went to the Ten Extremes Sect so young, they can't remember exactly how they got there. Some were a bit older, like you, Xiang Qin, and have some memories. But none of this is the most important thing. What's most important is that after you reached the Ten Extremes Sect, they trained you as cold-blooded and ruthless killing tools who were not treated as humans. In fact, many assassins, because of insufficient talent, couldn't meet the assassin standards and were executed directly! Such a cruel place, I believe the assassins inside, if it weren't for the Ten Extremes Sect controlling your vital points, very few would willingly become the killing tools of the Ten Extremes Sect."

"Yes." Xiang Qin agreed with Ye Qichi's perspective, "If it weren't for the poison of the Ten Extremes Sect, no one would be willing to be loyal. The pain of the poison's recurrence, severing of veins, bleeding from seven orifices, full body decay, is a hundred times more cruel than ordinary death, and no assassin is unafraid."

"Originally, I planned to train to make an antidote to eliminate the poison in the assassins' bodies, and then use the assassins of the Ten Extremes Sect to destroy the Ten Extremes Sect. But now because of the delay in Yuzhou, the antidote to completely cure the poison in your bodies has yet to be fully developed. But now, in this emergency, Xiang Qin, I can only rely on you!"

Xiang Qin looked at Ye Qichi.

"Rely on you to rope in some of the assassins to be used by us. To be blunt, this time among the Ten Extremes Sect's 32 assassins, according to our combat power, for us to remain unharmed, besides you, at least ten more need to be roped in to become our people."

Xiang Qin clearly felt somewhat troubled.

At this moment, she could only promise she absolutely wouldn't kill them.

The others.

The other people, she wasn't familiar with.

"Xiang Qin, I know asking you to do this is dangerous. If it fails, instead, because it exposes your ideas, you'll be pursued by the Ten Extremes Sect. But now, other than you, I can't think of anyone else who can accomplish this task," Ye Qichi stated frankly.

"I'm not afraid of being hunted by the Ten Extremes Sect. When I received the mission to assassinate Prince Chen and you this time, I made up my mind. Otherwise, I wouldn't have come early to inform you. My only worry is that if I make a mistake, it will harm you and Prince Chen," Xiang Qin said seriously.

The antidote given by Ye Qichi had already made her completely loyal to her.

From the perspective of becoming an assassin.

Never thought about always staying alive.

With every mission, there were always assassins who died.

Long been used to it.

She just didn't want, because of herself, to implicate others.

"No need to worry," Ye Qichi said clearly, "Whether you fail or succeed, we're all in danger. We might as well take a risk; perhaps there's still hope."

Xiang Qin was silent for a few seconds, then nodded, "Okay, I'll try."

"When are you planning to act?" Ye Qichi asked.

"Tonight, at midnight," Xiang Qin said.

"Will there be any use of poison?"

"No," Xiang Qin said, "Afraid to alert the enemy; the higher-ups didn't instruct us to use poison. Moreover, according to the Ten Extremes Sect's past records, thirty-two people can easily assassinate Prince Chen without needing so much of a show."

"If the assassins of the Ten Extremes Sect are killed or roped in by us this time, does it mean that the Ten Extremes Sect has basically been eradicated?"

"You could say that." Hearing Ye Qichi's words, Xiang Qin couldn't help but feel a little excited, "There aren't many assassins in the Ten Extremes Sect to begin with. Each year, only a few qualified assassins are truly trained, and the assassin death rate is high. Almost every mission results in death; currently, the Ten Extremes Sect has fewer than sixty usable assassins. Among the thirty-two now, they include the top ten ranked assassins. If they face disaster or betrayal, the Ten Extremes Sect will find it hard to recover. Plus, the Ten Extremes Sect has made many enemies in the martial arts world. Once the Ten Extremes Sect suffers heavy losses, others will naturally seize the opportunity to seek revenge, and soon the Ten Extremes Sect will disappear from the martial arts world."
