Liu Qing did not hide anything. “Today’s mission was specially assigned to me by the elders. However, the employer has another special request. He wants you to die in pain.”
As soon as these words were spoken, Shan Yue completely locked onto Lang Nan. Because he had said this the last time she killed Ah Yong in front of him. Although he didn’t have the ability to do it himself, he could add that requirement to the hired killers by adding money.
“Your mission was given directly by the elders?”
There was a hint of doubt in Shan Yue’s eyes. Even though she was no longer in the organization, she was still very clear about some rules.
Usually, no matter how big or small the mission was, it was issued through the bounty list. Everyone accepted it according to their ability and obtained the corresponding reward. Everything was fair and just.
There were only two situations where an elder could issue a mission in private. The first was because the situation or requirements of the mission were very strict. It had already exceeded the acceptable range of the bounty list. Only experts from the organization could resolve it in private.
As for the second situation, it was to do some private matters for the elder or the elder’s friend. These things could not be directly placed on the bounty list to compete, so they could only use private methods to find people.
Based on the current situation, the first situation was completely impossible. If the organization sensed her existence, it was impossible for them to just send a silver-level assassin. At that time, the entire Stewards Group and the Elders Group would probably be mobilized.
In that case, it must be the second situation: Lang Nan had some relationship with an elder in the organization.
“That’s right.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Liu Qing added, “Because it’s indeed rare for the elders to directly give such a situation, I’ve always thought that my efforts had been seen by the elders, so they extended an olive branch to me.” “Which elder found you?”
Faced with Shan Yue’s question, Liu Qing paused for a moment, but she quickly reacted. She even knew the leader of the organization, Ji Chen. How could she not know the elders below?
“It’s Elder Huo Jue.”
This name immediately pulled Shan Yue’s thoughts back to many years ago.
At that time, she was still a child, but she had been training in the organization for five to six years.
Huo Jue was the one who treated Shan Yue the best among the eight elders of the organization. Because his granddaughter had been harmed by his enemies, he had always treated Shan Yue as his granddaughter and doted on her.
Every time after training, Huo Jue would always play with Shan Yue. If there was anything good or delicious, he would always leave some for Shan Yue.
When Shan Yue caused a huge disaster, the other elders in the organization wanted to punish her according to the rules, but Huo Jue fought the other elders alone. In addition, Ji Chen was Shan Yue’s master, so he naturally did not want her to suffer. In the end, he still protected Shan Yue.
It could be said that Huo Jue was one of the main sources of Shan Yue’s happiness in the organization, allowing her to still feel the feeling and warmth of home in such a dark environment.
“President Shan?” When Chang Ling saw Liu Qing say this name, Shan Yue’s emotions changed very clearly. Even the area around her eyes was slightly abnormal. This might be normal for others, but in the few months he had been with Shan Yue, he had never seen her react like this.
“Are you alright?” Chang Ling’s words carried a probing question. “Your emotions are a little…”
Upon hearing Chang Ling’s words, Shan Yue immediately reacted. Even now, she was still affected by the beautiful memories of the past. However, she quickly adjusted from her emotions.
“I’m fine. I just recalled some of my past experiences and couldn’t control my emotions.”
Chang Ling stood at the side and did not speak. He only nodded slightly because he knew very well that what could make someone like Shan Yue’s emotions change must be extraordinary memories.
“Could it be that President Shan and Elder Huo have some communication?”
