Full-Time Magister: A Hellish Start, But the Shadow King

Chapter 119 Assassination by the Assassin's Hall and the Black Vatican: Let me kiss the captain too!

Inside a temple that houses many Buddha statues.

The temple, teeming with worshippers, had only one monk inside, which seemed quite eerie.

A strange black shadow was wriggling in the corner of the temple. The shadow stood there silently, making no move.

Not long after, a middle-aged man wearing a blue coat slowly walked into the temple.

The man in blue gazed at the Buddha statue with absolutely no respect; in fact, a disdainful smile played on his lips.

"Master," the man in blue said, looking at the temple monks.

"Pei Li, humble craftsman." The temple monks revealed the identities of the two men, yet they still knelt before the Buddha statue.

"I'm very curious about what kind of person could make the two cardinals temporarily agree on a goal and ask us to take action together."

The eerie figure hiding in the shadows of a corner of the temple spoke up.

"You've probably heard about what Cheng Xiao, the captain of the Kyushu National Team, has done," said Headmaster Wu Ku.

"His presence is a headache for Lord Salang. In fact, he even managed to outmaneuver Lord Salang in the ancient capital last time."

"Currently, Cheng Xiao is leading the Kyushu National Government team on training missions, making it the perfect time to hunt them down!"

They turned the tables on Salam!

If these words hadn't come from the mouth of the sect leader Wu Ku, they would have thought the person who said them was mentally unstable.

"Kyushu? It's been so long since I've set foot in that land. It's certainly a place where hidden talents abound." The craftsman couldn't help but chuckle.

"Rest assured, Master, our Assassin Hall will take his life!"

"We must not be careless," Wu Ku reminded him.

"Heh, just a genius in a high-level field. I, Bei Jiang, have killed far too many geniuses like him. Even super-level mages have fallen at my hands. What's there to fear?" Bei Jiang sneered.

"Taking the life of a young high-ranking person is quite simple." Pei Li didn't show much emotion.

Having spent many years in Western countries, the two paid little attention to Eastern countries.

Hearing that the person to be assassinated was just a captain of the Nationalist Army's police force, he naturally didn't take him seriously.

After all, they had hunted down countless so-called geniuses without ever failing.

Seeing this, Master Wu sighed helplessly:

"I have always believed in your abilities, but you still cannot let your guard down."

"Sect Leader, you overestimate him and underestimate us."

""

Wu Ku didn't say anything more.

Although he had not witnessed Cheng Xiao's strength firsthand, he had heard many legends about Cheng Xiao.

Moreover, the only young man that Lord Salang would be so eager to assassinate is Cheng Xiao!

Hopefully, the assassins from the Assassin's Guild and the executioners from the Black Vatican will be able to successfully carry out this assassination.

..............................

The Nationalist government team passed through a small village, and the scene before them was so beautiful it made their eyes light up.

The land adjacent to the sea is terraced with hills, and pretty little wooden and grass huts are built on the mountainside.

The exquisite mountain path winds its way up, with pinkish-red herbs planted on both sides.

The entire village is as beautiful and charming as a fairy tale, with mountains, water, flowers, and houses.

"Shall we rest here for a while, Captain~~~" Jiang Shaoxu immediately grabbed Cheng Xiao's hand and started to act coquettishly.

"Okay, everyone must be tired from traveling." Cheng Xiao nodded in agreement.

"That's awesome, Captain! I love you so much!" Jiang Shaoxu said excitedly.

If Mu Nujiao hadn't been by Cheng Xiao's side, she probably would have wanted to go up and kiss her.

"I spotted a rather unique woman, everyone, I'm going first!"

Zhao Manyan made no attempt to conceal his purpose, and in the blink of an eye, everyone was gone.

After the decision was made, everyone went their separate ways and did their own thing.

Cheng Xiao led Mu Nujiao directly up the mountain, with Jiang Shaoxu following behind.

"This is the Concubine Herb, which can be used to make antidepressants. It's expensive, which is probably why Xiaozhai looks relatively wealthy," Jiang Shaoxu explained.

"Create depression? Isn't that a negative emotion?" Mu Nujiao asked doubtfully.

"That's why it's expensive," Jiang Shaoxu said with a smile. "After all, ordinary people can't afford this kind of thing."

""

Suddenly, a rough voice came from ahead.

"The herbs from your village are now mine. If you want them back, you'll have to pay a fair amount of money," said the man in the dark red hat.

Before him stood the villagers of the entire village.

"This belongs to us! You stole our village's herbs and now you expect us to buy them back!" a young girl immediately stood up and argued.

But the other party not only didn't refute, they became even more arrogant and domineering.

"They're from the Red Ornaments Guild. Look at the ornaments they're wearing!" Jiang Shaoxu reminded them.

The group of monks who surrounded all the villagers were all wearing many red ornaments.

This is the origin of the Red Ornament Guild, and it's easy to identify.

"I remember the bounties for members of the Red Ornament Guild are usually quite high, right?" Mu Nujiao couldn't help but ask.

"What's wrong, getting hungry?" Cheng Xiao teased.

Mu Nujiao spoke somewhat shyly:

"My ice element is about to break through to the advanced level, and I'm currently short of resources."

"Then all their bounty money is yours," Cheng Xiao said.

Mu Nujiao smiled sweetly, raised her face, and gently offered a kiss.

This scene displeased Jiang Shaoxu, who was standing to the side.

"Captain, why are you showing off your love in front of me? Can't I have a kiss too?"

"You came along on your own," Cheng Xiao said irritably.

Jiang Shaoxu ignored him and looked at Mu Nujiao:

"Jiaojiao, can I kiss you too?"

Mu Nujiao shook her head and said softly:

"No, you need Xinxia's permission first."

"The captain really knows how to play dirty tricks. Since that's the case, what difference does one more person make?"

""

Jiang Shaoxu's complaining voice attracted the attention of the mage from the Red Ornaments Guild.

They quickly assembled their forces and surrounded Cheng Xiao and his two companions.

"Tsk tsk tsk, top-quality girls, huh? Hey, you yellow-skinned monkey, leave these two girls here and get lost, or I won't make things difficult for you. Otherwise..."

Xige, the leader of the mages of the Red Ornament Guild, stared unabashedly at the two women, his eyes shining especially for Mu Nujiao.

Although Cheng Xiao's aura was not weak, he had more than fifty brothers by his side!

But a second after Nishigaku finished speaking, everything went black.

Then, a sharp pain surged into my mind.

Nishigaku clutched his eyes, which had been crushed from a distance, and screamed in pain:

"Aaaaaah!!! My eyes! My eyes!!!"

The members of the Red Ornament Guild who surrounded Cheng Xiao and his two companions were terrified by this scene.

They clearly didn't see what happened, so how did the boss's eye suddenly explode?!

"How do you want him to die?" Cheng Xiao asked Mu Nujiao.

"I'll do whatever you say," Mu Nujiao said with a smile.

Jiang Shaoxu continued, following the conversation between the two:

"Then let's listen to me and subject him to all ten of the most brutal tortures. After all, this guy offended the two girls closest to the captain~~~"
