Qingyun League, League Chief Pavilion.
League Chief Yao Qingyun, Elder Feng, Elder Yun, and a few other elders were all present.
Standing in front of them was Yao Yue.
Yao Yue's eyes were filled with tears, but she did not say anything.
Yao Qingyun, who knew his daughter's temperament well, immediately knew that something bad had happened. Yao Yue had only cried once since she was born, when her mother was killed by the Emperor Faction.
Even when she was born, she had never cried.
It was easy to imagine that something that could make Yue Yao cry must have happened.
"What happened? Did the assassination attempt fail? "
"Yao Yue, it doesn't matter if it failed. After all, the opponent is a True Energy Realm expert. It's already a miracle that you were able to escape."
"In order to protect me, Ye Mo lured Huang Shihu away."
Just as the elders were guessing what had happened, Yao Yue's eyes became even more hazy.
"What? He lured Huang Shihu away? "
Everyone's faces were filled with disbelief.
"I failed to assassinate him. After exchanging a few blows with Huang Shihu, I was defeated by him. Just as he was about to rape me, Ye Mo successfully ambushed him and heavily injured him. After that, Ye Mo carried me and escaped."
Yao Yue narrated everything that had happened, word by word.
"Sigh … Even if Huang Shihu is heavily injured, he's still not someone he can contend against. I'm afraid that Huang Shihu has already met his end."
I'm afraid he's dead, "one of the elders sighed, his face filled with worry.
Hearing that, everyone's brows were tightly knitted together. Ye Mo's situation was indeed not looking good.
"Father, why did you ask him to help me complete that mission? If he hadn't accepted the mission, he wouldn't have died."
Yao Yue looked deeply at her father and spoke in a somewhat blaming tone.
"This … girl, I was afraid that you wouldn't be able to complete the mission. Although Huang Shihu is lecherous, he is also a cautious person. With Ye Mo's help, your chances of success might be higher."
Yao Qingyun looked at Yao Yue's slightly angry expression and felt helpless.
"If Ye Mo dies, how am I going to explain this to Chuchu, who is cultivating in the Heavenly Fiend Society?"
Yun Tianxie sighed and shook his head.
"What's there to explain? Aren't I back now?"
Ye Mo carried a huge Meteor Hammer and walked into the League Chief Pavilion with a smile on his face.
At this moment, everyone's expressions froze as they stood rooted to the spot. Even Yao Qingyun, who was at the Spirit Devour Realm, had shock written all over his face.
As for Yao Yue, she was startled at first, but her expression soon turned into one of joy.
"Ye Mo, you're not dead?"
Fiend Moon said in shock. The sorrow in her heart instantly disappeared, leaving behind only doubt.
"That's right. My luck was pretty good, and I managed to escape death. Senior Sister Yao Yue, how are you now? Are you alright?"
As Ye Mo spoke, he started to worry about Yao Yue's injuries.
"I, I'm fine. I just need to recuperate and I'll be fine."
At that moment, Yao Yue did not dare to look Ye Mo in the eye. Slowly, she lowered her head.
"By the way, Ye Mo, how did you escape from Huang Shihu?"
Everyone wanted to know the answer to this question.
Being chased by a True Element Boundary master, even Yao Yue would find it difficult to escape.
Ye Mo tossed the Bloodthirsty Meteor Hammer to the ground. The opening of the pouch slid down, revealing the Bloodthirsty Meteor Hammer, an evil Spirit Weapon.
"Huang Shihu was unlucky. After he was heavily injured, his strength dropped greatly. After a bitter battle, I ambushed him and killed him."
Shock!
After Ye Mo finished speaking, apart from Yao Yue, everyone's eyebrows twitched slightly. A trace of helplessness could be heard in their voices. Ambushed him? If a True Element Boundary master could be killed so easily, he wouldn't be a True Element Boundary master.
Since Ye Mo had returned with the Bloodthirsty Meteor Hammer on his back, Huang Shihu should be dead. However, they were extremely curious as to how Ye Mo had died. Ambushed? Ye Mo's explanation was definitely far-fetched.
However, since Ye Mo was intentionally hiding the truth, it was not appropriate for them to ask.
"Good. You are indeed an elite youth. By killing Huang Shihu, the kingdom will have gotten rid of yet another threat."
Yao Qingyun let out a hearty laugh, breaking the silent atmosphere.
"Lord Alliance Master, I have successfully completed the mission this time. The elders said that they wanted to give me a surprise. I have a request in my heart that I hope Lord Alliance Master can agree to. It's fine even if I don't want that surprise."
Completing a mission to assassinate a True Energy Realm master was extremely difficult. Therefore, a surprise would definitely be a good thing.
"Oh? You are actually asking me for a request right off the bat? Tell me, what request do you have for you to be in such a rush? "
Yao Qingyun said with a calm smile.
"Ye Mo begs the league master to stop Sister Yao Yue from carrying out any more assassination missions."
Ye Mo looked at Yao Yue and clasped his hands together.
"Hmm?"
Yao Qingyun cried out in astonishment. He had never expected Ye Mo to make such a request.
"Today's mission is too dangerous. You only have a daughter. Can you bear to see your daughter being imprisoned because she failed the mission?"
Ye Mo ignored Yao Qingyun's astonished expression and continued speaking.
"I can't believe you would make such a request for the girl."
Yao Qingyun was stunned for a moment before he shook his head and smiled bitterly. "Actually, all of this was the girl's own request. She witnessed her mother's death when she was young. She was assassinated by an expert from the Emperor Faction. From then on, the girl begged me to groom her into an outstanding assassin so that she could avenge her mother. Of course, I do not wish for her to continue like this. But you know my daughter's temperament. Even a hundred cows won't be able to change her mind."
Hearing that, Ye Mo turned his head to look at Yao Yue, only to see her head lowered in silence.
"Sister Yao Yue, I have already returned to the Qingyun League. Do you still remember what I told you before?" Ye Mo said.
"This is the path that I have chosen!"
Yao Yue raised her head once again, her face once again covered in frost as she spoke coldly.
"Since it is a path, you can walk it again. If you still want to carry out the assassination mission, that's fine too. But you have to bring me along. Otherwise, I will not allow you to go. Now, I have the strength to do so."
Ye Mo chuckled.
As for Yaoyue, she turned her head away. Her puffed up appearance was quite flirtatious.
"By the way, the league leader said that you have the right to become a chief elect. I hope that you can give this right to me."
Ye Mo said, suddenly remembering something important.
"Take it!"
Yao Yue said as a token appeared in her hand. She threw it to Ye Mo and said, "This token was given to me by Master Xuan Ji. It gives me the right to compete for the chief elect position. Your strength is no weaker than mine. With this token, even Xuan Ji will have nothing to say."
She was not in the mood to participate in the league war. She was very willing to give the chief elect position to Ye Mo.
"That works?"
Ye Mo was somewhat doubtful.
"Actually, this is only a kind of qualification. An elite league member can challenge a league member with the chief elect position. If he defeats the league member, the chief elect token will belong to him. This is a rule of the Qingyun League, and it is also a form of competition. This kind of competition will be passed down, and the ones who compete for the chief elect position in the end will naturally be the strongest league members."
Yao Yue patiently explained to Ye Mo, once again turning into the elite league member that Ye Mo knew from before.
