Hearing Lu Ming's answer, Yun Yan realized that they really wanted him to kill someone. However, judging from the current situation, killing was better than being killed.
Therefore, Yun Yan could only nodded and asked.
"Who do you want me to kill?"
At this time, Song Yao interrupted him and said.
"You are wrong again. As I said just now, you and Jackal are not going alone."
"What difference does it make? We are all here to kill people anyway."
Perhaps because she was disgusted with killing people for no reason, Yun Yan's answer seemed a bit stiff.
However, he soon realized that now was not the time to be impulsive, so he added.
"Maybe the other party is not weak, so senior asked me to go with Jackal."
When Song Zhen saw this, he didn't care too much and just replied calmly.
"Don't worry, there are no strong people above the martial arts realm in the Night Continent. Since we dare to send you to do this, we are absolutely sure, so just go ahead and do it."
Realizing that Yun Yan seemed worried, Lu Ming continued.
"According to the information we have received, the Night Continent is just a stronghold they set up to deceive others. It's a pity that such a clumsy trick can hide it from us. Kanshu La
Of course, we also know very well that the Night Continent is not their core at all, and the reason why we want to destroy the Night Continent is just to teach them a lesson.
If they stop here, we won't kill them all, but if they don't know what's good and dare to continue to act recklessly, then our Tianque headquarters will take action ourselves. "
After hearing this, Yun Yan turned around and asked.
"If we just get rid of some low-level monks, it should be effortless for Jackal. Why does Senior want me to go with him?"
"Haha, that's a good question."
Lu Ming smiled and replied.
"First of all, before we know their details, this is just to give them a warning, but this warning cannot be too perfunctory, otherwise it will not have the desired effect.
Therefore, your task is to make them actually suffer some losses, because only in this way will they feel pain.
Secondly, since you are familiar with the art of weapon refining, it will naturally be easier to find those weapon refiners hidden in the crowd and get rid of them.
Of course, if you find it troublesome, you can kill them all, but in that case, the noise may be a bit loud.
But don't worry, no one will care even if the incident reaches heaven, because this kind of thing has happened more than once. "
Hearing Lu Ming talk about killing like a child's play, a chill gradually rose in Yun Yan's heart. He didn't know how many times something like this had happened before.
But now, under the threat of Lu Ming and Song Yao, he wanted to do the same thing. Yun Yan even doubted whether he could do it.
Just when he was hesitating, Song Yao finally tore off their hypocritical masks and said coldly to Yun Yan.
"To be honest, we don't want to directly conflict with them, so for this mission to the Night Continent, Jackal is just to help you attract their attention, and you are the key to completing the mission.
If everything goes well, then we will all be happy, and you will naturally be appreciated by Elder Lu, and at the same time, the grudge between you and Hu Bao will be wiped out.
But if you fail and the mission fails, then we will be sorry for you. Don't blame us for being ruthless when the time comes. "
Yun Yan then said calmly.
"Senior means that if I fail, I will have to bear all the blame myself, but isn't your goal still not achieved?"
Song Jing sneered when he heard this.
"Then you don't need to worry about it, because you may be dead by then, so do you think dead people still need to care about these things?"
"Haha, what the senior said is true. It seems that I can only succeed and cannot fail. Failure is equal to death."
Lu Ming said at this time.
"Master Yun, actually you don't need to feel discouraged, because these are the rules of the Sky City, and I need to remind you again.
That is, you'd better not use any crooked ideas, otherwise, those closest to you in Beishan Mine may disappear inexplicably. "
Hearing this, Yun Yan suddenly became furious, because he did not expect that Lu Ming, a strong man at the fifth level of martial arts and an elder of Tianque, would actually use such a despicable method to threaten a junior.
But when she thought that Zhou Ying was waiting for him to return at the restaurant, Yun Yan immediately suppressed the anger in her heart and said calmly.
"Senior Lu is really good at it, but I don't understand. Beishan Mine is also considered a subordinate of your Tianque, why do you still do this?"
"Haha, the Beishan Mine is indeed affiliated with our Tianque headquarters, but the Zhou brothers and sisters are not. Since we can bring him up, we can naturally pull them down.
Although Zhou Cang has tried his best to find new support in the alliance over the years, he has forgotten one thing, that is, the entire Jiuzhou Alliance belongs to Tianque Headquarters.
So, you should now be able to understand what it feels like to stand on the shore and admire the fish swimming in the pond. "
Yun Yan was forced to the point of no return by Lu Ming's words. He knew very well that if he was a little careless, not only would his life be in danger today, but even Zhou Ying, who was waiting for him in the restaurant, might not be spared.
So, he could only nod slowly.
"Two seniors, can you let me say goodbye to Ying'er? After all, she is my woman. If something goes wrong in this mission, I'm afraid I won't be able to live in this world. So, can you let me go see her? ?」
Yun Yan's tone was very sincere, as if he was not threatened by anyone at all, but simply wanted to see his woman.
Lu Ming suddenly felt that this young man was very interesting, because he was not only able to hide the anger in his heart, but also kept a clear mind. Such young people were rare.
After this incident, he may hate himself, but Lu Ming believes that when Yun Yan's hands are also stained with blood, he will no longer be entangled in what is right and wrong in the world, and time will allow him to finally reconcile with himself. Traveling together.
But the premise of all this is that Yun Yan must successfully complete the task they assigned him this time, or in other words, it is a test for him.
Immediately, Lu Ming replied happily.
"Go ahead."
After receiving Lu Ming's reply, Yun Yan passed them by and walked towards the restaurant where someone had been waiting for him.
After Yun Yan left, Song Yao asked Lu Ming with great interest.
"Why should you give him hope? Have you forgotten how Hu Bao died!"
At this time, Lu Ming slowly raised his head, looked at the stars in the dark night and sighed.
"The deceased is dead, and the real murderer is the Jackal, and he just happened to be involved in this struggle for power.
If he can finally be used by me, it will be a kind of comfort to Hu Bao. After all, his talent is more suitable for inheriting my soul. "
A strange smile appeared on Song Yan's face after hearing this.
"Haha, you are very open-minded, but who can guarantee that he will be the last one."
Lu Ming sighed at this time and said.
"My time is running out. If he can pass this test, he will be the last one."
"Well, I hope you get what you want."
Then, the two of them disappeared into the dark night like ghosts, as if they had never appeared.
However, after they left, a slight wave of soul power faintly appeared on the eaves on one side of the lane, but it returned to calm in the blink of an eye.
...
Yunyan dragged her heavy steps back
The restaurant where he lives.
Since it was already late at night, the restaurant had already turned off the lights and closed, but when he went up to the second floor, he found that Zhou Ying's room was still lit.
Obviously, she had been waiting for her return. Yun Yan suddenly felt sad in his heart. He suddenly felt that he had caused Zhou Ying to be harmed.
If he and Zhou Ying had never known each other, they would not have gotten this land now, and maybe she would still be living freely in the Beishan Mine.
But now that the matter has come to this, he has no choice but to do his best to protect Zhou Ying's safety.
So, he went straight to Zhou Ying's door and reached out to push the door open.
"Brother Yan, aren't you going to come in without knocking?"
Suddenly hearing Zhou Ying's voice, Yun Yan was a little surprised. Maybe he was really upset right now, so he ignored the most basic etiquette.
"You've been waiting for me, haven't you? I'm back now."
When Yun Yan finished saying this, he thought he had answered Zhou Ying's question. However, Zhou Ying said with obvious resentment.
"Since you like to stay with that woman, why bother to come back to me? Compared with her, I'm not even an ugly person, so there's nothing worth your nostalgia."
Yun Yan knew that sooner or later, he and Su Xuan would not be able to hide the matter from Zhou Ying, but at least for now he was still devoted to Zhou Ying.
Therefore, he felt the need to explain clearly to Zhou Ying, but before he could speak, he heard Zhou Ying continue speaking.
"I should have thought earlier that no man in this world can resist her temptation, and now it seems that even you are no exception.
I am so naive that I was stupid enough to believe your lies. If I had known it would be like this, I would rather kill you from the beginning, so that I would not waste several months of my relationship in vain.
Therefore, Brother Yan, we are done with each other from now on and have no further relationship. You go find Su Xuan. I never want to see you again. "
However, at this moment, a violent and fierce light suddenly flashed in Yun Yan's eyes, and almost at the same time, the majestic and powerful martial arts power instantly enveloped the entire room where Zhou Ying was.
Then, he asked in a cold tone.
"Who are you?"
