Chapter 976: Actually, Nevermind
Did she say something wrong? She was just giving a suggestion.
“Remember, your life belongs to Master. Everything you have belongs to Master. The reason you exist is for Master,” said One coldly. “What you need to do now is rescue Master, even if it’s at the cost of your life.”
Ning Shu was stunned. When she looked around and saw the expressions on all the other people’s faces, like this was only natural, she suddenly understood why Eleven had offered up over half her soul to save Xuan Hongyu. It was because the very value in her existence was Xuan Hongyu.
In the past she hadn’t understood and had always been wondering what exactly about Xuan Hongyu was worth Eleven offering up her soul to save him. It was only now that she actually understood Eleven’s mindset.
Death soldiers were no longer ordinary people. They had gotten used to their masters assigning missions to them. They didn’t hesitate to sacrifice their own lives for the sake of completing the mission. This way of life was their spiritual support. If this support beam fell, they wouldn’t know what to do.
They were used to being given orders. If one day the person that gave the orders no longer existed, they would feel lost and fearful. They wouldn’t know what to do.
Their hands were covered with blood. Heartless and ruthless death soldiers couldn’t possibly live an ordinary life. Their every action was alien to normal people. If they stood under the sunlight, it only took a glance to see their difference.
Xuan Hongyu’s attitude towards Eleven was that she was just a tool. But even if he abandoned her, Eleven didn’t have any way to abandon Xuan Hongyu.
Ning Shu inwardly sighed, then said, “This subordinate was only too worried about Master.”
One glanced at Ning Shu coldly, then started assigning different missions.
This was clearly an act of heading towards death, but Ning Shu could only watch without saying anything. How could these few people in the room be able to fend off the imperial army?
One’s plan was to create a diversion. He sent some people to assassinate Xuan Xiaotian in order to attract the guards’ attentionx, then the others would head to Changle Palace to save Xuan Hongyu.
The ones that had been assigned to assassinate Xuan Xiaotian were pretty much heading over to die as a diversion. However, the people that were assigned to this task didn’t show any reaction and just calmly accepted the task.
It caused Ning Shu to gulp. Fearing death was basic instinct. Did these people no longer even fear death?
The assignments were given out. Ning Shu was the only one that hadn’t been given a mission, so she asked, “What’s this subordinate’s mission?”
One glanced at Ning Shu coldly, murderous intent flashing in his eyes. Ning Shu instantly had a bad feeling. She suppressed her instinct to run and asked, “What is it?”
“Tie her up,” said One coldly.
People immediately approached and grabbed Ning Shu to tie her hands behind her back. Ning Shu revolved her energy and struggled free from these people’s control. She pulled out her sword and faced these people warily.
“Did I do something wrong? Why are you trying to tie me up?” Ning Shu was very depressed.
One glanced at Ning Shu coldly. “I suspect that you’ve already betrayed Master.”
Ning Shu: Hah!?
She’s betrayed Xuan Hongyu? How come she didn’t know?
“For the sake of preventing you from leaking this mission, you can’t go.” One lifted his crossbow and aimed the arrow towards Ning Shu’s head. “Originally I had wanted to capture you so that Master could decide your punishment after we rescue him, but now, we can’t allow you to live.”
Ning Shu was speechless. He was all of a sudden saying that she had betrayed Xuan Hongyu. Where was his evidence?
