The Return Of The God Level Assassin

”I HAVE one, but itʼs kind of rough and thereʼs a chance that we might fail,” Luo Yan said.

Truthfully, he wanted to talk with Shen Ji Yun regarding the otherʼs past. But seeing how he purposely change the subject, it meant that he was still not ready to have that kind of talk with him.

That was fine. Luo Yan could wait until Shen Ji Yun told him about it on his own volition. Thatʼs better than forcing the other to tell it to him. Knowing Shen Ji Yun, if Luo Yan asked, he would definitely answer and tell him everything. But thatʼs not what Luo Yan wanted.

It would feel like forcing someone to tell you their deepest secret. And the other person couldnʼt help but tell it because they couldnʼt refuse you. That didnʼt really leave a good taste in Luo Yanʼs mouth.

So, he would wait. Heʼs patient enough to do that.

”Let me hear your plan. I might be able to add some insight to make it more solid,” Shen Ji Yun responded.

Luo Yan nodded and told the other his plan.

Listening to Luo Yan, Shen Ji Yun agreed that it was indeed a bit rough. But not impossible. Especially if they wanted to get to that oracle unnoticed, tied him up, and bring him here for interrogation. He then supplemented the plan with his own idea, making it more fool proof.

”We needed the lasso, but itʼs effect is still in cool down. Should we continue the task later after lunch?” he asked, after he and Luo Yan exchanged ideas and agreed on the plan.

”Yeah, continuing later would be better,” Luo Yan said. He should probably untie the lasso from the tree since he used it to tie the red dragon. ”Wait here for a bit. Iʼll go back and take the lasso.”

”No, stay. Iʼll do it,” Shen Ji Yun said before Luo Yan could walk back to the tree where the red dragon was tied.

Luo Yan didnʼt mind and just nodded. ”The red dragon is currently asleep so Brother Ji Yun doesnʼt need to worry that he would retaliate or something.”

After he finished his interrogation, he poured a high-grade sleeping potion on the dragon to prevent the other from making a fuss. He was actually contemplating on whether to just kill the red dragon but at the end, he thought against it. Because an idea suddenly popped up in his mind. Itʼs way better than directly killing the dragon.

”Mashter, the plan just now, why didnʼt it mention Eclipse and uncle?” Eclipse suddenly asked.

”Because we need to be as stealthy as possible. If all of us go there, the plan might fail,” Luo Yan explained. ”Itʼs definitely not because we didnʼt want to take you with us. Besides,” he looked at the still unconscious Dusk who was currently leaning on a tree. ”I donʼt think your uncle is in any condition to go back to the valley.”

It wouldnʼt be good if the other suddenly lost control of his Mana again because something triggered him. Which most likely would happen if they met the oracle and the other said something that could remind him of the past.

Besides, he was still unstable because of what the red dragon said. He certainly wasnʼt in the state where he could do a stealth mission or something. So, itʼs better to just let him stay here or anywhere away from the dragonsʼ valley.

Eclipse glanced at Dusk, his little face was filled with both unwillingness and worry. This little guy probably wanted to go with his master but understood that what his master said was also correct.

After much difficulty, as if he just made a life-or-death decision, the little boy finally said, ”Mashter is right. Uncle is not really in a good condition to return to that gloomy valley. But- but what if uncle wakes up and he insisted on going there himself?”

Luo Yan smiled. ”Thatʼs why Eclipse is here. With your help, Iʼm sure you can persuade him to stay put.”

Eclipseʼs expression was suddenly filled with determination. ”Donʼt worry, Mashter. Eclipse will definitely look after uncle!”

Luo Yan chuckled and patted the little boyʼs head. ”I know Eclipse can do it.”

Not long after, Shen Ji Yun returned. ”I changed the lasso with a normal rope just in case,” he said. ”What do you plan to do with that dragon?”

”I thought of giving him to Brother Ze,” Luo Yan answered. ”Isnʼt he still looking for a pet?”

Thatʼs the brilliant idea he thought of earlier. Instead of simply killing the dragon here, wouldnʼt it be better to just give it to his cousin as a gift? There was already a ready-made pet here and itʼs still a dragon to boot. It would be such a shame to just get rid of it.

Shen Ji Yun was slightly surprised hearing that. Although itʼs a bit unexpected, itʼs still much better to just give the dragon to Bai Ze. But thereʼs just one problem. ”Would that dragon even agree to make a contract with Bai Ze?”

”Well, Brother Ze could buy some item or potion that could make the dragon forget his past. Which, in turn, would make it much easier to form a contract with him. Iʼm sure that number one Alchemist in the game has that kind of potion in his store,” he said. ”If that doesnʼt work, I can always threaten that dragon, so he would form a contract with Brother Ze on his own free will.”

Now Shen Ji Yun started to wonder just what kind of ʼheart to heart talkʼ did Luo Yan had with that dragon that the latter would not hesitate to form a contract with someone just because he was threatened.

In his imagination, a smiling giant rabbit holding a knife to a small shivering dragon appeared. He had no doubt that thatʼs probably how the two looked like while Luo Yan was doing his interrogation.

He shook his head to shake that image off his mind. He then opened his Friend List to see if Bai Ze was online. Luckily enough, the other was indeed online. ”Heʼs online. Iʼll message him and tell him to come here.”
