Chapter 146: Former Tutor (2)
Song Junwan narrowed her eyes as she spread her Spirit Sense around the hall, looking for even a small clue.
"Don\'t bother. It\'s Bian Lu, my first ever tutor in a way. He was the one who forced me to learn his so called legacy so it won\'t be easy to find him."
Ying Yue spoke as her eyes turned cold, looking at her daggers. She had never seen her former tutor using the technique he just used but she was sure it was him. He was one of the few people who had interacted with her the most and also betrayed her by sending assassins after her.
It was quite an ironic thing.
"Oya! Why do I find this voice so familiar? Is that you, My dear student?"
A sinister, mocking voice resounded in the hall, with it\'s source difficult to pin point.
"So, it really is you, huh. Sisters, you can go and deal with others. I\'ll deal with him myself."
Ying Yue said, taking out her second black obsidian dagger that her Master had given her. They looked nothing special but she knew how powerful they were.
"Are you sure you can handle him?"
Ning Xi asked, crossing her arms over her chest. Her voice unusually serious as her body was already screaming at her to kill the one who sneak attacked her.
"Yes, also..."
Ying Yue turned to look back at them and smiled.
".. I\'m the only one among us who can deal with him. Don\'t worry, I just need to settle some old debts."
Lan Ming looked at her face which was covered in the demonic mask for a while before she turned around, saying.
"Let\'s go."
Ning Xi shrugged and along with Song Junwan followed Lan Ming to the hole which led to the hall.
"Haha! You really think I\'ll let you all leave so easily."
The voice once again resounded, however the ladies couldn\'t care less as Ning Xi simply waved her hand without turning her back.
"Even when you sneaked attack, you couldn\'t scratch me. What makes you think you can actually kill me now?"
The voice remained silent and actually let the three women leave the hall. But the moment they stepped outside, the hole leading to the hall was closed.
"Now, shall we have a long teacher student discussion? You do carry my legacy, after all."
The sinister came from practically everywhere as Ying Yue simply stood on one place, surrounded by hundreds of half-dead Assassins.
Instead of answering her former tutor, Ying Yue took out her communication stone and said.
"Master, can you please take all of these brain dead Assassins away? They\'re in my way."
There was no response from the other side but in a blink of an eye, all the human figures disappeared except one.
Ying Yue smirked as she looked at a small framed man wearing a wooden mask. He had one purple dagger in its right hand and he simply stood unmoving.
"I never thought finding you would be this easy."
Ying Yue\'s smile reached to her ears as she played with her daggers while walking towards her former tutor, Bian Lu.
She still remembered the torture he had put her through, just so that she could inherit his legacy. He was one of most weirdest person she had seen. For some reason, he was obsessed with passing down his legacy and for that, he did many things to her, who was apparently a good fit for his legacy.
Bian Lu also dropped his act as he sighed and chuckled.
"But I did expect you to survive. And looks like you have even made progress in my legacy, making it even greater. Hahah, you really are the best Assassin."
Ying Yue narrowed her eyes and opened her mouth to ask something, but then closed it, shaking her head.
"You\'re insane!"
"Hmm? Insane, huh. I might be, actually. But who cares?"
Bian Lu laughed and tapped on the ground as the corners of the hall became darker and his own shadow spread around him like a pool of black liquid.
Then, four figures rose from his shadow, all having exact same features as him. Their eyes however were like the brain dead Assassins as if there was no life in them.
"I actually trained you because I saw your potential and thirst for power. I knew you would strive to be better than ever. That\'s why I took you as my student and also as my legacy Inheritor."
His eyes behind the visors shone with maddening glint as he chuckled.
"And you never disappointed me. You learnt everything so quickly and so easily. I knew you would be the one who would make a breakthrough in my Shadow Dance Legacy. I couldn\'t do that for some reason but I knew you would. Do you know how sad I was when those higher fucks decided to kill you?"
Ying Yue couldn\'t see but she had a feeling that a sinister smile was playing behind that mask.
"I didn\'t stop them however. I knew you would survive, you\'re my student, after all. Haha, how could the inheritor of Shadow Dance die so easily? See? I was right. You\'re here, completely fine and even had achieved a breakthrough in your Shadow Dance.
I can see it, otherwise you co-"
"Can you please shut your mouth? Your voice is ugly as fuck!"
Ying Yue snorted, but didn\'t move from her place. Her eyes scanning the four figures identical to Bian Lu.
Bian Lu stopped and dropped his hand down in a dramatic sigh.
"Whatever! Not like I need you anymore. I have already achieved the breakthrough I needed you for. Behold the next stage of Shadow Dance, the Shadow Clones. Each of them carries power equal to me."
