As soon as Xu Muqing's words fell, Gu Yanxi, who had returned from asking for information elsewhere, said, "Little Sister's spirit crane took a lot of effort to refine, and she is a good spy. is the person that Master has asked us to assassinate."
"Yes! Yanxi is right, that must be the case!" Tifa immediately agreed with Gu Yanxi's speculation.
Tifa jumped in front of Xu Muqing, reached out and pulled Xu Muqing's slender arm and shook it back and forth, "Eldest Sister, ever since you came down from the mountain, you've been giving that person a chance to live? What's wrong with you?"
"Yes, Eldest Sister, Master instructed us to assassinate that man called Li Hang, we've searched all the way here and finally locked onto his trail, why don't you let us do it right away?"
Gu Yanxi at this time also voiced out the doubt in her heart.
Xu Muqing's delicate face couldn't help but reveal a look of hesitation, in fact, from the moment she received Master's mission, Xu Muqing's heart had always had a question.
As she searched for Li Hang's whereabouts over the past few days, that doubt in Xu Muqing's heart grew bigger and bigger.
It was not until she saw Li Hang, the target of their assassination, by the pile of ruins at the Xiao Yun Inn that a face identical to Li Hang's suddenly appeared in Xu Muqing's mind, and that face would smile at her and even shout "wife" at her.
Xu Muqing was absolutely sure that she had never seen Li Hang's face before today, but this feeling was so real that it was not like an illusion, which made her feel very uneasy.
After telling Tifa and Gu Yanxi all the thoughts in her mind, the two girls listened with their pretty eyes wide open and said in unison, "Senior sister, you don't think you've fallen for that Li Hang and are thinking about sex, do you?"
"Little girl, what are you talking nonsense about? I'm talking to you guys seriously, don't you think the assassination mission Master sent us on this time is strange?"
"Normally, the female disciples of the inner palace of our Leaving Palace don't even need to meddle in the strife on this Spiritual Illusion Continent, let alone kill someone, but why is Master going against the norm this time and asking us to kill a man who has nothing to do with our Leaving Palace at all?"
At these words, Tifa and Gu Yanxi looked at each other, and both of their faces could not help but show a puzzled expression.
Tifa was the first to speak out, "Yes oh, the task Master assigned this time is indeed a bit strange."
"But Master says one thing or another, if we don't follow his old man's words, we will definitely be punished."
"Those punishments in the Leaving Palace are too scary, if we don't kill that man called Li Hang, then we'll be the ones who die."
"Even if we are the three most favoured first disciples of Master, we can be spared the death penalty, but we definitely can't escape the living penalty, that feeling of life being worse than death, I feel horrible even thinking about it."
As she spoke, Gu Yanxi's pretty face had a gloomy expression on it.
"The three young ladies don't really need to be so troubled."
Suddenly, a man's voice came from behind them, interrupting Xu Muqing's trio's conversation.
