Consequences of Being Followed

With the total amount of silver he earned in that casino, plus what he already had, he now had a staggering 20 million taels of silver notes on him, which was quite a lot!

However, having too much money doesn't seem to be of much use. Money can only be used to buy food, drinks, clothes, and weapons. It seems to be useless for anything else. Even if he runs out of money in the future, he can just go to the casino and win a few rounds. So Xuan Ye is not worried at all about whether he will be short of money.

As a ninja with the physical strength of Chunin, even if I don't gamble, I can easily make money by doing a few missions and killing a few bandits.

Don't tell me the bandits are broke. I don't believe they're broke; they probably have plenty of money on them! Even if I did encounter some penniless bandits, I wouldn't send out more bandits to rob them!

Just as Xuan Ye was pondering, several middle-aged men dressed in black secretly followed him from behind. The men cautiously followed Xuan Ye, seemingly intending to do something unknown.

After walking for a while, Xuan Ye noticed that three middle-aged men dressed in black were always following him. Seeing their furtive and cautious movements, Xuan Ye thought, "Damn, are these people here to follow me? If that's the case, then this is going to be interesting. Anyway, I have nothing to do now, so I might as well have some fun with them."

As he pondered, Xuan Ye's lips curled up slightly, and he deliberately walked towards a less crowded street corner. Soon he arrived at a deserted alley. The alley was somewhat dark because of the houses blocking the view, but this did not affect Xuan Ye's eyesight. Thanks to the modifications that the Divine Eye had made to his eyes, darkness had no effect on Xuan Ye at all.

After entering the alley, Xuan Ye turned around, crossed his arms, and waited for the three middle-aged men who had been following him to arrive.

When the three men saw the kid they were following walk into an alley, they laughed with delight, feeling that God was helping them. So they quickened their pace and headed towards the alley.

Three middle-aged men dressed in black walked into the alley. They were initially uncomfortable with the darkness, but they quickly adapted. Although it was dark, they could still see things with difficulty.

The three of them saw a child dressed in white standing in the distance, and their faces immediately lit up with smiles as they walked toward him.

"Haha! You must be that kid who won a lot of money at the casino! I never expected you to end up in an alley. It seems like even God is helping me out!"

A middle-aged man came out, said a few words to Xuan Ye, and then laughed loudly towards the sky, his face full of surprise.

The other two middle-aged men dressed in black cooperated, then approached Xuan Ye's position step by step. They stopped when they were only five or six meters away, staring at Xuan Ye with unbridled arrogance, as if they already considered the brat in front of them to be meat in their bowl, and that he would definitely not run away.

"Heh! I really don't know what to say to you guys. Should I say you're incredibly brave? Or should I say you three are just too stupid?"

Xuan Ye looked at the three of them with a cold face and a slight smile, his expression full of confidence.

"I think the three of you were in the casino at that time! You must have seen what happened. Why did you still dare to follow me?"

Xuan Ye crossed his arms and looked at the three people in front of him with amusement, as if he were looking at a dying man.

"Oh! You're talking about your pitiful little bit of strength? Maybe you don't know! The three of us are ninjas. Do you know what a ninja is? I bet you, a little brat, have never even heard of a ninja, let alone seen one."

After they finished speaking, the three of them emitted a wave of chakra. The combined chakra of the three of them was less than one-tenth of Xuan Ye's.

Upon noticing this, Xuan Ye smiled at the three of them and deliberately exaggerated, "Wow! So you're the legendary ninjas! Is that powerful energy the ninja's chakra?"

The three who had circulated their chakra were clearly very pleased to hear what the brat in front of them said, and their expressions gradually became more arrogant.

"Hmm! This is the chakra that Chunin legend. Do you think you can defeat the three of us brothers with your pitifully weak strength?"

Xuan Ye continued, "Those three Ninja Lords, what is your purpose in coming here? Do you want the silver notes I have?"

"Haha! You're quite clever, kid! That's right, as long as you hand over all the silver notes you have to us three brothers, we guarantee we won't make things difficult for you and will let you leave safely. How about that?"

The three men spoke to Xuan Ye with lewd expressions, their faces revealing greed and their eyes filled with endless desire for money.

"Heh! So you really came for the money on me? Then do you have anything else to say?"

Gradually, the smile on Xuan Ye's face disappeared, leaving only endless chill. A trace of murderous aura gradually appeared on his body, and his eyes gradually turned from black to red. At this moment, Xuan Ye still harbored murderous intent.

"What? What are you talking about?"

"Didn't we, the three brothers, tell you to hand over all the silver notes you had on you? Why are you asking us what else we have to say?"

The three middle-aged men dressed in black clearly did not understand what Xuan Ye was saying, and asked him a question instead.

Xuan Ye heard the questions from the three middle-aged men in front of him, but he did not answer them, only responding with cold smiles.

The situation reached a stalemate before Xuan Ye finally answered, "That's because if you have nothing to say, then I'll have no choice but to send you to hell."

In an instant, Xuan Ye took out a dark black Kunai from the pocket of his white robe. In this dark alley, the dark Kunai seemed to blend into the darkness.

"Puff!"

Three sounds of Kunai and flesh being torn apart rang out. The three people in front of Xuan Ye at him in disbelief, their hands tightly pressed against their necks, but it was no use. Blood continued to gush from their necks, creating an eerie feeling in the dark alley.
