Chapter 44
Inside the carriage, Senior Zhong sat in front of a female figure, his face covered by a veil.
"The Moonlight's blade is truly non-stop .." sighed the hooded figure.
His sigh was so heart touching that Senior Zhong could feel the fatigue in his heart.
"Young Miss doesn't have to worry. We will soon find their hiding place and sweep them away from this earth," Senior Zhong said.
His voice was clear and confident, yet his eyes dimmed. Moonlight Blades could be considered the most secretive and deadliest underground organization the world has ever seen, they were so hidden that even after 100 years of active operation, they were so hidden, no one could uncover their main hiding place, only small branches.
"I'm sure you will ...," the young lady said in a soft voice, and she continued: "Thank you, Senior Zhong."
"I didn't do anything to get your praise .." she shook her head, rejecting her gratitude.
"But you just protected me."
Senior Zhong slightly chuckled and said: "I will naturally protect that young lady, and yet, I really am not doing anything right now. The one who dealt with the killer was a young man."
"A young man?"
The young lady sounded curious, and Senior Zhong started to recall to her what had happened.
"The killer came here to deliver a message knowing that he would die afterward, and he intends to do us harm. But at the last second, he decided to surprisingly attack this young man instead."
"Why was he attacked? Is she okay?"
When Senior Zhong recalled what the assassin said, he could not help but smile bitterly. "Because his face is annoying …"
The young lady covered her mouth in surprise after hearing his words. An observer was attacked just because he had a disturbing face? What kind of development is this?
"As for his well-being .. Not only did he manage to escape unharmed, but he also reversed the situation and killed the assassin with sword intent."
"meaning sword? The terrifying sword intent I felt earlier did not belong to Senior Zhong?" he asked in a confused tone.
Senior Zhong shook his head regretfully and said, "I won't be able to bring out such a powerful sword intent even if I try."
The young lady was completely shocked now. He knew Senior Zhong's attitude very well, and his ability as a swordsman could be considered as the best even among masters. But to him it sounded very sad and inferior when talking about himself was the first.

"This young man, who is he?"
"I don't know his background, just his name is – Xiao Yang. Even though she looks like a teenager, her behavior says otherwise. If I had to guess, then he must be an honorable swordsman in disguise."
"Xiao Yang ... is he still out there right now? Why don't you invite him inside to talk?"
The young lady's words surprised Senior Zhong. "But we don't know his background. While I couldn't feel the threat from her, I thought it wasn't a good idea to make her so close to the young lady!"
"I am interested in this sword teacher that even our esteemed Senior Zhong cannot comprehend. And since he is strong enough to kill someone from the Moonlight Blade, at least I want to make some sort of connection between us."

Outside the carriage, Su Yang was still trying to remember the name of the 'Hundred Poison Body' mentioned by the assassin.
Outside the carriage, Su Yang was still trying to remember the name of the 'Hundred Poison Body' mentioned by the assassin.
"ah! I remember now. It was a Royal-level Heavenly Constitution! Anyone with the Hundred Poisons Body would be immune to all poisons at mortal rank." Su Yang finally remembered why he found the name so familiar.
Heavenly Constitutions was a special body that gave that person unique and sometimes challenging talents, such as the Hundred Poison Body that allowed the person to be immune to all poisons and even cultivate them.
Those who possessed the Heavenly Constitution were all considered as heaven-sent marvels and were usually cultivated at a young age with all sorts of precious resources and magic medicines.
Heavenly Constitutions, like techniques and weapons, had their own level of rarity and quality. The Hundred Poisons Body, for example, was at the Kingdom level, the lowest rank in the rank of the Heavenly Constitution, while the Thousand Poison Body that excelled, would become an Imperial-level Heavenly Constitution.
"The Royal Heavenly Constitution, yes ..." Su Yang's gaze narrowed on the carriage.
Suddenly, Senior Zhong got out of the carriage and approached Su Yang again.
"Young man, my young lady would like to invite you to the train to have a little talk. He wanted to personally thank him for dealing with the assassin," Senior Zhong said to him in a different tone than before.
Su Yang looked at Senor Zhong's serious face and glanced at the carriage at a glance.
“Alright,” he accepted their offer.
When the guards saw Su Yang following Senior Zhong into the carriage, their jaws dropped in shock. How could Senior Zhong let some strangers into the carriage when their young lady was also inside ?!

However, as much as they wanted to complain and block Su Yang, none of them dared to open their mouths when they recalled the strength he showed, not to mention Senior Zhong was beside him.
As soon as Su Yang entered the carriage, he was greeted by an elegant figure dressed in a red robe sitting on one side of the carriage. Although she could not see her face, her vast experience told her that she was truly beautiful.
On the other hand, when the young lady saw the handsome face of Su Yang for the first time, she was very surprised by his appearance, even fascinated.
When Senior Zhong spoke of him, he did not mention anything about Su Yang being this handsome young man, which left the young lady dumbfounded for a second when he saw him, because he didn't expect someone this handsome.
Su Yang sat on the other side of the carriage beside Senior Zhong with an indifferent expression on his face, seemingly unaffected by the situation.
"You must be a great swordsman, Xiao Yang. My family name is Xie, Xie Xingfang. I've heard about you from Senior Zhong, and I want to personally thank you for dealing with the hitmen of the Moonlight Blades," the young lady with a fair hand reached out to shake hands.
Su Yang laughed inside as he called him a swordsman. "You don't have to thank me. I did what I did just to protect myself," she said as she shook her delicate, delicate hand.
"?!" Senior Zhong was secretly shocked when he saw Xie Xingfang stretch out his hand to shake hands, as it was something that no one with his status had thought of. He wanted to say something, but unfortunately, Su Yang's quick movements allowed him to touch his hand before he could even open his mouth.
