Mo Jiaqi never expected that Gu Nan was much easier to talk to than she had imagined. Almost as soon as she opened her mouth, he readily agreed.
This made her feel very satisfied. Of course, she felt that this was the other party's respect for a senior of the same branch.
In fact, after learning about Gu Nan's terrifying battle record, she no longer had the pride of being a senior. In this world, strength was the most important.
If Yan Xiaoxiao wasn't an important karma for her in this world, she wouldn't have forced herself to do this.
"Yan Xiaoxiao?"
In the inner hall, Yan Xiaoxiao stood in front of Gu Nan nervously and said with her head lowered, "Yes … Teacher."
She didn't really understand why he didn't let her call him "Master" and insisted on using such a strange word like "Teacher."
Gu Nan nodded lightly and calmly looked into her eyes. "First of all, you have to understand one thing … The current me is not the same person as before."
It was common knowledge among the aborigines that the Immortal Trainer was like a completely different person before and after the Immortal Trainer.
Hearing this, Yan Xiaoxiao nodded vigorously.
Gu Nan revealed a faint smile. He was quite curious about this side mission that had suddenly appeared. After all, this was the first time a new side mission had appeared since he had been here for so long.
The so-called side mission was something that would have a major impact on the main mission.
This girl in front of him … would have a huge impact on the main mission of eliminating the Six Evil Sects? This meant that even if he didn't appear, she would still be an important person.
Every time this happened, Gu Nan would have a wonderful feeling of participating in history.
"You said that you want to be my disciple. What do you want to learn?" Gu Nan said amiably, but there was no emotion in his eyes, only calmness.
"I don't know." Yan Xiaoxiao was a little hesitant. "That day … after the Care For One's Family incident, I had this idea."
Gu Nan raised his eyebrows. "You want to learn how to kill?"
As if a sharp arrow had pierced her heart, Yan Xiaoxiao's breathing became a little rushed. She took a deep breath. "… Yes."
"Okay, then come with me."
…
The people of the southern branch of the Righteous Path's Six Sects, Bright Pavilion, suddenly discovered something strange.
Gu Nan, who had previously been called the craziest hunter, had suddenly vanished without a trace. Not only did he no longer attack the Xiantian experts of the Corrupt path, he rarely even returned to his branches.
A few days ago, someone curiously asked him the reason.
"Oh, I've almost killed all the Innate Rankers around here."
"…"
Actually, Gu Nan wasn't speaking blindly. Innate Realm experts weren't as common as cabbages. Almost all of the Innate Realm experts in the southern cities had been wiped out by him.
Even without the incident with Yan Xiaoxiao, he would have stopped or run to other places to continue hunting.
As for the Six Evil Sects, they were also aware of this. However, they rejoiced that the Death God was finally willing to take a break.
In a hidden cave abode, three men and two women were standing in the shadows.
"That guy … is finally willing to stop?"
"Yes." A man wearing a green crown smiled bitterly. "As expected of a superpower like the Bright Pavilion. We thought we could stand up to them, and then someone like this came."
"There's nothing we can do. After all, we're not an organization specializing in reincarnation. We can only rely on the aboriginals … These aboriginals can't handle this incomprehensible power."
The biggest difference between the aboriginals and the reincarnated ones was their knowledge. The reincarnated ones had many tricks that they had never seen before.
"Gu Nan … So it's him? If I knew, I would have risked the risk to send him back, "a female voice said.
If Gu Nan was here, he would definitely recognize that it was the girl who had tried to ambush him when he had just been reincarnated.
"Tang You, it's too late to say that now … Moreover, based on the current situation, you might not be able to defeat him."
"…"
"Alright, the higher-ups will soon send an Extraordinaire here to try to send this Gu Nan back." A man who seemed to be the leader of the group interrupted their conversation.
He paused for a moment, then said, "Recently, there have been reports from the higher-ups that there are people massacring the civilians in our area. Tang You, go take a look."
The girl named Tang You, who had met Gu Nan before, was confused. "I know … Who would even kill civilians?"
"That's what we need you to investigate."
…
Within the territory of the Six Evil Sects, in a small village in the countryside, a figure was flying around, wantonly slaughtering the civilians in the village.
It was a girl dressed in black. She held a simple crossbow in her left hand and a dagger in her right.
Her movements were very simple. Almost every time she attacked, she would take away a life. Moreover, she rarely made any unnecessary movements, which made her killing efficiency extremely high.
"If you want to become an assassin, the first thing you need to learn is not killing techniques, nor is it killing knowledge, but a heart that disregards life."
"When you get used to killing, then you can learn techniques."
Her teacher's cold words echoed in her heart. As Yan Xiaoxiao slaughtered, she suppressed her instinctive reactions — disgust, fear … and excitement.
This was the sixth village that she had massacred.
She originally thought that she had the power of a warrior at the peak of the Postliminary Realm, was a well-known genius, and had also gone through Mo Jiaqi's special training. How could a group of mere ordinary people be a problem for her?
However, reality taught her a deep lesson.
Killing was far more difficult than she had imagined. When faced with a life-threatening situation, anyone could always burst out with amazing potential, especially when the other party had a large number of people.
In the first village, when she saw the intestines of the first person exposed, she almost vomited. More than ten burly men rushed up from behind her, each with a weapon in their hands.
Even the simple and crude agricultural "weapons" caused serious damage to her. The nearest simple rake was only half an inch away from her neck.
Fortunately, her teacher was here …
Yan Xiaoxiao's movements paused for a moment. She looked back at the white figure standing by the roadside — Just because you like wearing white, you don't allow me to wear it. Really …
"Don't get distracted, there are still two more over there." Gu Nan's lazy voice sounded, "If one escapes, you won't be able to eat tonight."
You make it seem like I have an appetite … Yan Xiaoxiao secretly rolled her eyes. In the end, she couldn't compare to her teacher. It was difficult for her to still be able to eat heartily after experiencing a bloody massacre.
However, she still obediently went over.
Not only to complete the task assigned by her teacher, but also … to be loyal to the thoughts in the depths of her heart.
Kill them … Don't let a single one of them go … Kill everyone here …
An indescribable excitement began to take over Yan Xiaoxiao's body. The endless desire to kill reverberated in her mind. Just as she was about to lose herself in it, a pair of calm eyes appeared in front of her.
Those were her teacher's eyes … Even in the midst of the craziest massacre, he still had this kind of gaze.
