The White-Clad Youth and the Black-Clad Killers

Yizhou

Mount Qingcheng.

The once deserted mountain peaks have now been visited by a group of uninvited guests.

A young man in white was covering a wound on his arm.

They ran desperately through the dense undergrowth and weeds of the forest.

Not far behind him

A dozen or so men in black, wielding blades, were in hot pursuit.

The boy was only fifteen or sixteen years old.

But his youthful face did not conceal his handsome features.

Presumably when they grow up,

He is definitely a handsome and dashing man.

Yet this handsome young man was deathly pale, his eyes filled with hatred and fear.

The boy in white is running away.

A group of assassins dressed in black are in pursuit.

That's all,

Passing through the dense forest,

We arrived at the top of a towering mountain.

And below the mountain peak,

It's a sheer cliff, a bottomless valley.

This is a dead end, a dead end.

The young man in white looked at the bottomless cliff, and despair instantly filled his eyes.

The dozen or so assassins in black also stopped in their tracks.

He stood there, knife in hand, a mocking and playful expression on his face, as if watching a little monkey that had been jumping around but ended up walking into its cage.

"Run! Why did you stop running? Keep running!"

The leader of the men in black spoke with a mocking tone.

Goodness!

They chased them all the way.

I almost ran my legs off.

Every time you're about to catch up with or capture your opponent, some inexplicable accident always causes them to escape.

This kid seems to have a strange kind of luck.

They always manage to pull off a miraculous comeback.

They chased him from Yongping Prefecture all the way to Mount Qingcheng, then from the Mount Qingcheng all the way into the mountain, and finally from the mountain to the summit.

Nima,

They only accepted a mere thousand-tael bounty, but they acted as if they had accomplished something worth ten thousand taels of silver.

If it weren't for the cliff in front of them, they thought this kid could have escaped from their clutches.

How did a wealthy young master from a security escort agency and a mediocre martial arts student manage to escape from a security escort agency that was surrounded like an iron barrel?

Even these highly skilled assassins were exhausted and aching all over from chasing him, yet this pampered young master barely even broke a sweat.

This is so damn weird and bizarre!

That's simply illogical.

But things are better now.

This strange kid is finally trapped with nowhere to go.

"Who are you? Why did you wipe out my entire family? Why???"

Seeing no hope of escape,

The young man in white turned around and roared hysterically at the group of relentless assassins.

"Kid, don't blame us. Blame yourself for offending a big shot you shouldn't have."

The leader of the black-clad assassins sneered.

"An important person?"

The young man in white was taken aback upon hearing this, then, as if realizing something, his eyes widened in astonishment.

"Song Xiuyuan, son of the Prefect of Yongping Prefecture."

"Oh ho, you actually guessed it. Looks like you're quite clever. It's a pity your cleverness backfired, bringing trouble upon yourself and causing the death of your entire family."

The leader in black laughed.

Upon hearing the man in black's words, the boy in white staggered backward, clearly finding it difficult to accept this cruel reality.

He has a grudge against Song Xiuyuan.

However, it wouldn't come to the point of wiping out an entire family.

He had a childhood sweetheart fiancée, and they were about to get married, but unexpectedly Song Xiuyuan, the son of the newly appointed Prefect of Yongping Prefecture, also took a fancy to her.

This led to numerous disputes between the two.

Ordinary people don't fight with officials. Although his family ran a security escort agency and had some influence in Yongping Prefecture, in the eyes of the Prefect, they were no different from ordinary people.

His parents had tried to persuade him to give up more than once, but he and his fiancée were deeply in love and could not possibly let go so easily.

Moreover, his fiancée had repeatedly cried to him, saying that she would marry no one but him and would entrust her life to him.

With his fiancée so devoted and determined to be with him, how could he possibly be a coward and let his beloved go to someone else?

But he never expected that...

What began as a youthful rivalry over unrequited love turned into a tragedy that wiped out an entire family.

Do these sons of high-ranking officials Aristocratic Clan truly not consider ordinary people as human beings?

Random slaughter, wanton extermination of entire families

Aren't they afraid of attracting the court's investigation and the people's resentment?

"What... did you do to Jingjing?"

The young man in white opened his mouth and uttered these words in an almost hoarse voice.

He seemed to want to get news about his fiancée from these assassins in black, yet he dared not hear what fate awaited his loyal and devoted fiancée.

Upon hearing the white-clad youth's question, the dozen or so assassins in black exchanged glances, then burst into mocking laughter.

"What are you laughing at? What have you done to Jingjing? Answer me!"

Hearing the piercing laughter and seeing the meaningful expression on the man in black's face, the boy in white, like a cat with its fur standing on end, roared loudly.

"I was just praising you for being smart, but I didn't expect you to be as stupid as a pig. Fine, since you're about to die, I won't let you be a fool."

The leader in black looked at the white-clad youth, who was nearly frantic with worry, with a sympathetic gaze and said:

"It wasn't Young Master Song who asked us to exterminate your entire family, but the Prefect himself. Only by wiping out your whole family can we clear the Prefect's name of allowing his son to steal someone else's fiancée."

"As for Jingjing you mentioned, she must be your fiancée. She should be in Mr. Song's arms right now, but you might be disappointed. She wasn't forced; it was voluntary."

"Your nominal father-in-law has long since climbed the social ladder by associating with the Song Family, and your fiancée has also been having an affair with Young Master Song. However, since there is already a marriage agreement between your two families, unilaterally breaking off the engagement and remarrying would damage the reputation of the Song Yao Family and Miss Yao's honor."

"Therefore, your entire family must die, and they must all be wiped out, leaving no one alive. Only when you disappear from this world will the Song and Yao families be at peace."

After the leader of the black-clad assassins finished speaking,

The boy in white was filled with shock and astonishment.

"No, no, Jingjing isn't that kind of person. You're lying to me. Jingjing loves me. She told me herself that Non-Self marry no one but me and would entrust her life to me."

The white-clad youth was no longer the handsome man he had been moments before; his features were contorted, his expression ferocious, and he appeared to be insane.

It was like suffering a huge blow, far more devastating and painful than the annihilation of an entire family.

"Tsk tsk tsk... How pitiful. They thought they were a loving couple, but it turned out to be a one-sided affair. They were completely fooled and deceived, and in the end, their whole family was dragged down with them."

The leader of the black-clad assassins looked with pity at the white-clad youth who was now crouching on the ground, clutching his head and acting mad, having been utterly defeated.

They are a professional assassin team.

According to the rules, they are absolutely not allowed to reveal their employer's information or intentions.

But this order is just too absurd and bizarre.

Even this industry veteran found it difficult to abide by the rules, and he couldn't help but speak out.

Anyway, the other party is about to die.

Could he possibly return as a vengeful ghost to seek revenge?
