SHHHHHHH—FLICK!
Diving silently out of the midnight clouds above Cloud-top Terrace like fifty venomous bats. The fifty Rank 5 High Night-Crow Assassins—led by their infamous Grandmaster Night-Crow Leader Ying Sha , at Rank 5 Peak,—didn’t make a single whisper of wind!
Two hours ago, after coughing up blood at Central Sky-Plaza when nine hundred of their junior prodigies transferred to the Gu Family Academy. Supreme Sword Sect Master Jian Jue, Thunder-Clap Sect Master Lei Zhen, Jade Lotus Sect Master Lian Hua. Holy Son Chu Tian had emptied their personal emergency vaults to hire the entire Night-Crow Assassin Hall!
Their blood-order was ruthless and simple:.
Wait until midnight when Gu Changsheng’s four seven-to-eleven-year-old children are asleep or meditating in the backyard. Throw the [Rank 5 Peak Sound-Sealing Corpse-Poison Net] over the courtyard lawn to suffocate their dantians; and slit all four children’s throats before Gu Changsheng can step out of the kitchen!
“Target locked!”
Three hundred feet above the courtyard lawn, Night-Crow Leader Ying Sha , at Rank 5 Peak, spotted eleven-year-old Ye Xiao, ten-year-old Gu Nian, eight-year-old Su Nuannuan. Seven-year-old Jiang Tuntun sitting cross-legged in a circle on the backyard rug in their animal pajamas with their eyes closed!
Because the porch roof of the [Lv.3 Flying Courtyard Carriage] shaded the doorway. Gu Changsheng and Empress Luo Qingxue were standing with their teacups, Ying Sha didn’t even notice the two parents watching calmly from the shadows of the veranda!
