Chapter 373: Tingguang
In the massive room of the grand palace. A young man wearing a golden dragon engraved robe was sitting on the stone chair-like throne. Two people were kneeling in front of him. The young man was none other than the prince of the Long Imperial Dynasty, his name was Long Yi.
"Did the assassin gave a reply yet? It has many days, he should be finished his task by now." Long Yi asked.
"No, he hadn't replied yet. We lost our contact with him." One of the men shook his head and replied.
"You said he is one of the best assassins of the Phantom Assassin Organization, so how could he haven't completed this mission yet, target just a young boy." Long Yi narrowed his gaze and said.
Sweat drops appeared on the faces of two people seeing the cold look of Long Yi.
"Your Highness, we will immediately send someone to check." Both of them replied hurriedly.
"Do it! If I don't get news in one week, you two will be responsible." Long Yi gave a chilling glance at two people.
The two people nodded furiously before going out. In the room, Long Yi is lost in thoughts.
"Fuck! Where did this baster come out? And how the fuck did Liu Mingxia took interest in this bastard. I am a hundred times better than him, but she never gave me a chance, this bitch!" Long Yi muttered angrily.
...
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe same incident was happening in a different place. In the room, two young men were sitting at the table while two middle-aged men were standing and telling something.
"How come the organization still was not able to assassinate one man? Useless dogs." A fat young man slapped his hands on the table and said angrily.
This young man was the same man who was beaten by Feng Yun in the Green River City for pestering Long Shu and Su Rou. His name was Deng Xiaojian, the young master of Deng Clan.
The bounty on Feng Yun in the organization was placed by Deng Clan.
"Calm down, there is must be some strong around him to protect him. Leave him for now, we will kill him during the grand competition." The second young man said in a plain voice, he was much calmer than Deng Xiaojian.
"Young Master Liqin is right, if this boy is still alive even after being marked by the organization, that means there is a strong person behind him who saved him. Don't forget he is a personal disciple of Grand Elder." One of the middle-aged men said.
"Focus on cultivation right now, if you can't able to perform well in the competition, you will get punished." Deng Liqin looked at Deng Xiaojian and said.
"Yes, Elder Brother!" Deng Xiaojian nodded fearfully.
...
Feng Yun was unknown of all of this. At this time, Feng Yun was restoring his spirit qi and mending his injuries caused by the battle with Ye An.
The next day, Feng Yun went to the prison to meet Tingguang. He was planning to return to the Mystic Heaven Peak, he needs to take care of some things first.
Tingguang was holding in a dark cell, his cultivation was sealed, and his body was bound by the metal chains. At this time, his temperament of heaven profound realm expert has long vanished, his clothes were torn, his hair was messy, and his body was filled with brushed and wounds. He looked like a beggar right now.
"Yo, dude, how are you holding up?" Feng Yun called out casually before arriving in front of Tingguang.
Tingguang's face flinched and anger appeared in his eyes when he heard this voice. Lifting his head, he looked at Feng Yun's face without speaking anything. He was still a veteran, even in his situation, he could remain calm.
Feng Yun first time looked at the face of Tingguang, he was a middle-aged man with a scar on his left cheek.
"Why are you still holding me here? No matter how you torture me, I am not gonna a word about the organization."
"Yeah, I know the reason, it's because of soul mark, isn't it. Your soul will be annihilated by the soul mark once you reveal the secret of the organization." Feng Yun chuckled lightly.
"I don't know what are you talking about." Tingguang's heart skipped a beat after hearing Feng Yun's words. The soul mark was basically was one of the top-secret of the organization, no outsider knew about this. So how did Feng Yun knew about this? Although there was a storm in his heart, he kept a calm expression on the surface and said.
"I am sure you do. It doesn't matter you admit it or not." Feng Yun smiled, "Don't you want to know, how did I know about your mission beforehand."
"You? How did you know?" Tingguang's calm expression finally changed a little and asked. He was really puzzled by this. Feng Yun obviously knew that they were going to assassinate him beforehand and set up a trap in counterattack.
There was the only possibility that Feng Yun has a spy in the organization, but this was almost impossible, every assassin was marked with the soul mark before becoming a phantom assassin. If Feng Yun could send spies in the organization, he must have to counter the soul mark.
"I will tell you, but before you have to tell me something. Who hired you and who placed a bounty on me in the organization."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"I don't about the bounty. As I said I was on a personal mission hired by Long Clan." Tingguang said.
"Details, please! I want names!" Feng Yun glared at him and said.
"I don't know, we don't ask names, but I can say that the client was one of the princes, as for which one I don't know." Tingguang shrugged his shoulder and said. "Now tell me how did you know about Guozhi's mission."
"Is it so difficult to guess, definitely I have a spy in the organization." Feng Yun said plainly. While he thought about his mother's story of his love rival. Looks like, his mother's speculation was right.
"That's Impossible."
"Haha, the soul marking technique of your organization isn't absolute as you think." Feng Yun laughed.
Tingguang fell in silence after hearing Feng Yun's words. It was true that the organization's soul marking technique was not absolute. But at least in the Blazing Sun Dynasty, there was no one capable to erase it without killing the person's soul. Once the soul mark is placed it can't be erased, If someone tried to erase it forcefully then that would trigger the defense system of the soul mark, the soul mark would explode itself destroy the soul along with it, just like this that person's soul was also annihilated with the soul mark.
That was the reason that the soul mark technique of the organization was treated with absolute loyalty mark. Now he found out that there was someone who could erase the soul mark without damaging the soul, Tingguang was shocked by this discovery.
"By the way! I have a good offer for you." Feng Yun said with a smile.
"Let me guess, you want me to work for you in return you will erase the soul mark of organization." Tingguang smirked and said. If he was Feng Yun's place, he would also place this offer, so he has already expected this.
"So what do you think." Feng Yun asked.
"Fuck off, I am not going follow a dying man. You don't know the power of the organization. Once the organization place red level on you, not only you will die, even your loved once won't be left alive. Every phantom assassin of the organization will come after you. Haha!" Tingguang laughed loudly. Didn't care about angering Feng Yun.
After hearing his words, Feng Yun heart also filled with waves. He knew that Phantom Assassin Organization is powerful, Feng Yun stand no chance in front of entire organization. Although he can run and hide but what about his family. He has to found a way to handle this huge problem.
"I know about this, but I don't think that the organization would mobilize all power to just kill me. After all, the organization has many enemies in the world. If they come out from hiding, then they would bring themselves a great danger as well. At that time, lose would be much higher than benefits. I will find a way to handle them in the meantime." Feng Yun said calmly.
Tingguang didn't show any reaction, yeah Feng Yun was right that organization won't come out from shadows easily to kill Feng Yun. But he didn't believe Feng Yun that he could raise his strength in sort of time enough to face the organization.
