Chapter 901: Infiltrating the Organization

Editor: Henyee Translations

Chu Qingzhi swiftly dispersed the three incoming arrows with her spiritual power, reducing them to dust. She then dashed into the woods, swiftly capturing three individuals and tossing them in front of the leader of the assassins.

“Just perfect, all four of you!” she declared.

The four lay on the ground like sludge, their eyes filled with a hopeless despair.

Chu Qingzhi looked down at them and got straight to the point, “Who sent you?”

The leader of the assassins struggled to speak, “We’re under Lord Yun. Tang Jinghong destroyed his treasure, and in retaliation, our superiors sent us to kill you.”

Lord Yun had actually made a move. Chu Qingzhi inquired further, “Who is this Lord Yun in the eastern border?”

The leader replied, “No one knows his real identity. He meets his subordinates cloaked and masked, with his voice deliberately altered. He’s a tall, thin man with a stooped posture. Always an odd and eerie presence.”

An odd and eerie figure indeed.

Chu Qingzhi mulled this over, her interest piqued by the mysterious character, “Where does Lord Yun usually operate?”

The leader answered, “It’s not clear. He seems to appear in any of the eastern border’s twenty cities.”

Active across twenty cities…

Chu Qingzhi pressed, “Where is your organization most active?”

“In all of the eastern border, but most activities are concentrated in Shu City,” the leader disclosed.

Chu Qingzhi fixed her gaze on the leader, “How does one join your organization?”

The leader, startled by her question and the implications of Chu Qingzhi infiltrating their ranks—a wolf among sheep—felt a chill down his spine but realized he had little choice, “To join, you do this…”

Chu Qingzhi meticulously gathered details about the organization, intending to delve deeper into its workings.

She then brought up the missing supplies, “Did Lord Yun take the second batch of supplies?”

“Yes, it was Lord Yun, but I wasn’t in charge of that operation. I don’t know the details,” the leader confessed.

Chu Qingzhi considered this information. There was no need to pursue the supplies anymore; she could go directly after Lord Yun.

The leader braced himself for death.

Chu Qingzhi executed the other three but spared the leader, “Help me infiltrate your organization. If you manage this well, I’ll spare your life.”

The leader’s eyes shot open, “Really?”

“Do I look like someone who lies? If you handle this well, I’ll also protect you through the process. How about it?”

Without hesitation, the leader agreed, “Deal.”

Compared to life, what else mattered? Moreover, he was tired of the constant killing; if there was a chance to escape the organization, he was more than willing.

Chu Qingzhi placed a curse on him, which would backfire if he betrayed her, causing instant death, “Prepare yourself. We’ll return to your organization together to report.”

The leader gulped… ƒrēenovelkiss.com

Chu Qingzhi had him turn around, then she used magic to switch their appearances with one of the shorter male bodies, “Now, pick him up and let’s go.”

The leader turned around, his eyes as wide as saucers, “You, you…”

Chu Qingzhi calmly stated, “There’s nothing to be surprised about. Get moving, and don’t slip up. You know what I’m capable of.”

Seeing Chu Qingzhi’s almost supernatural abilities, the leader dared not harbor any thoughts of betrayal. He believed he would be dead before he could act on them.

He picked up the ‘body’ of Chu Qingzhi and led the way to report to the organization as Chu Qingzhi, now disguised as his subordinate, followed.

Along the way, Chu Qingzhi managed to send a message to Tang Jinghong about the supplies’ whereabouts and her plan, assuring him not to worry.

The leader, known as Zeng Huo, and Chu Qingzhi, now disguised as Lou Ze, arrived at a designated meeting point outside Linzhang City at Ten Li Pavilion.

At the pavilion, a group of figures awaited them, the leader a fierce-looking woman in red. “Is the mission accomplished?”

Zeng Huo dropped the ‘body’ of Chu Qingzhi, “Mission accomplished, Chu Qingzhi is dead.”

The woman in red, unable to hide her excitement, turned around quickly, “Really killed her?”

Many had tried and failed to kill Chu Qingzhi; Zeng Huo’s success was unbelievable. If only she knew that the supposedly top-ranked assassin didn’t even last two moves against Chu Qingzhi.

Zeng Huo bowed, “Please verify, my leader.”

As Lou Ze (Chu Qingzhi) stood off to the side, the woman in red approached the ‘body’ of Chu Qingzhi. She drew a dagger and began slashing at the face, then stabbed the chest several times to make sure of the death. The sight was gruesome and her actions reflected a deep-seated brutality.

Lou Ze, witnessing this, internally condemned the red-clothed woman’s sadistic nature. Even in death, she sought to mutilate the body.

After confirming her kill, the woman in red wiped her dagger with a cloth, her actions meticulous and cold. “Take it away,” she ordered her subordinates.

Zeng Huo then seized the moment to inquire about their next assignment, “What’s our next task, my leader?”

The woman in red, still exhilarated by the news of Chu Qingzhi’s death, responded, “We’re to kill the magistrate of Linzhang City next.”

Zeng Huo, glancing at the convincingly disguised Lou Ze, asked, “Why him?”

The woman in red found Zeng Huo’s question unusual but, feeling generous due to their recent ‘success’, indulged him, “His identity has been exposed by Tang Jinghong, so he must be silenced.”

“Understood, my leader,” Zeng Huo bowed.

As the woman in red and her followers departed with the ‘body’, Lou Ze thought about the need to investigate the situation in Linzhang City further and decided to hold off on immediate action.

Zeng Huo, seeing the woman and her entourage leave, respectfully asked Lou Ze, “What are our next steps?”

Lou Ze frowned, “Maintain your role; we need to keep up appearances, understand?”

Zeng Huo, remembering his place and the seriousness of their covert operation, nodded firmly, “Yes.”

Lou Ze then inquired, “Who was that woman just now?”

Zeng Huo explained, “In the organization, authority is strictly hierarchical. The woman you saw, known as Red Fei Yun, is in charge of the assassins. Despite being a woman, she has a volatile temper and enjoys torturing her kills, which terrifies everyone.”

Lou Ze nodded, taking in the information without further comment, “Let’s head to Linzhang City, I want to meet this magistrate.”

…

Meanwhile, the news of Chu Qingzhi’s alleged death spread quickly and stirred considerable discussion.

“Chu Qingzhi is really dead?”

“That can’t be right, her martial skills are profound; how could she be so easily killed?”

“I heard it was the assassins from the eastern border who did it; she was on their hit list, and they finally got her.”
