Chapter 789

"Chi!"

Blood splattered everywhere!

Chen Ning saw drop after drop of blood fall to the ground. Following that, with a peng sound, a black clothed man fell to the ground with a shining throwing knife stuck in his back.

"Ah Ning!"

Na Mu Cuo jumped in from the window. He looked around with a nervous expression, not seeing Chen Ning's figure. His heart almost jumped out of his chest.

He gave another loud shout.

"Ah Ning, where are you?"

"I'm here." Chen Ning's heart fell to the ground. She came out from under the bed and patted the dust off her body. She looked down at the black clothed man.

That black clothed man was wearing tight fitting night clothes. He was lying on the ground and his face could not be seen.

"Are you injured? Are you alright? " Na Mu Cuo grabbed her shoulder and looked over her. Finding that she wasn't injured, he let out a sigh of relief.

"I'm fine. Did you catch the intruders?" She asked.

Na Mu Cuo nodded, but his expression was very serious. In a deep voice, he said, "But they are all dead, not a single one was left alive."

After he said this, he crouched down next to the black clothed man on the ground. He touched his artery and then said with a sigh, "He's also dead."

"They're all dead?" Chen Ning took in a cold breath, "They were all killed by you?"

"I didn't kill them. They ….. took poison to commit suicide." Na Mu Cuo shook his head. He hooked his right foot and flipped over the black clothed man on the ground. He took off his mask and revealed a normal face. His eyes, ears, mouth, and nose were all bleeding with black blood.

He knew that his throwing knife was not enough to kill him, so he said, "My knife does not have poison on it."

Chen Ning nodded. She could see that this black clothed man knew that he couldn't run, so he also took poison to commit suicide.

"Who are they?" She asked.

Na Mu Cuo pondered for a bit, "According to my guess, they should be a group of trained killers, but my people have searched their bodies and couldn't find any clues. I don't know where these people came from."

"There are no clues?" Chen Ning suddenly pointed at that person's black leather boots and said, "I did find something. Look at the pattern on his boots, it looks like a cloud. You can send people to check the boots of all the black clothed men. If they all have the same pattern, perhaps you can find out where they came from."

"Ah Ning, you truly are meticulous, you can even find such a small detail!"

Na Mu Cuo was pleasantly surprised. He bent down to take a closer look and indeed found that cloud.

However, purple and black were very similar in color, so if one didn't look carefully, it would be hard to notice the purple pattern embroidered on the black boots.

"Someone, go and check the boots of those men in black. See if they all have the same pattern on them!" He ordered loudly.

The people outside immediately replied and quickly came back to report.

"Your Highness, everyone's boots have cloud patterns embroidered on them."

Na Mu Cuo nodded and ordered, "Everyone, guard the guest house well. If anyone dares to break in, kill them without mercy!"

When he turned his head back, his expression had already become extremely ugly.

Na Mu Cuo did not reply and just stared at her. His deep black eyes did not blink at all. He grabbed her hand and tightly gripped it.

Na Mu Cuo did not reply and only stared at her. That pair of deep black eyes did not blink. He grabbed her hand and gripped it tightly.

Chen Ning could feel that his large palms were covered in cold sweat.
