Bab 1044: Retribution

All the Ghost Shadow Guards were dead, and only Xie Jinnian was left beside Zongzheng Ming.

Xie Jinnian didn't know martial arts, so he clearly couldn't protect himself.

Zongzheng Ming could not help but feel flustered. However, he had been the monarch for more than 30 years and had seen many storms. He had also trained his temperament to be extraordinary.

He quickly suppressed this panic.

He began to recall why Jade-faced Rakshasa wanted to assassinate him.

He didn't remember doing anything to offend the other party, and he clearly remembered that the rule of the Assassin Alliance was not to kill the employer.

"Jade-faced Rakshasa." He decided to negotiate with the other party first. "I have no grudge against you. Why are you killing me? If someone gave your Assassin Alliance silver, I'll give you ten times the amount."

Su Xuan said coldly, "You're not worthy."

Zongzheng Ming frowned.

Xie Jinnian looked at Su Xuan deeply.
