Chapter 1401: Chapter 143: Mie Feng Travels Together
Ah Dai looked at Mie Feng, whom he hadn’t seen for many days, and intense murderous intent couldn’t help but appear in his eyes. With his inner emotions frozen, his heart now only harbored hatred. Mie Feng’s sudden attack ignited his fury as he spoke with resentment, "How many times have you attempted to ambush me now? I did not kill you before, not because I was merciful, but because you bear a strong resemblance to a friend of mine. But today, I will show no mercy."
Mie Feng, observing the Energy Blade materializing in Ah Dai’s hand, showed no fear and spoke coldly, "Since I came to assassinate you, I never considered my own life or death. Just kill me. But before you do, could you please put on your clothes? Do you have a habit of being naked? I don’t want my soul to be restless even in death."
Upon hearing Mie Feng’s words, Ah Dai paused abruptly, his eyes looking down at his own body, and he instantly felt extremely embarrassed. The killing intent vanished from his chest as his simple and honest face turned beet red. Using the Giant Spirit Snake Armor, he shielded his private area and darted into the nearby woods like lightning. Seeing Ah Dai’s embarrassed demeanor, Mie Feng couldn’t help but reveal a faint smile.
In the woods, Ah Dai felt his heartbeat quicken. He hastily put on the Giant Spirit Snake Armor, and after some fumbling, he finally managed to don the fitted Armor. He then took out a set of clean commoner clothes from the Space Barrier and put them on over the Armor, finally feeling relieved. But the thought of killing Mie Feng no longer appealed to him. Floating upwards, he returned to Mie Feng’s side, where, under the influence of the Tian Luo net, Mie Feng had no chance of escaping.
Mie Feng, seeing Ah Dai fully dressed, spoke coldly, "You can make your move now. Although I am a thief, I refuse to beg you for mercy. Even in death, my soul will come for revenge."
At the mention of the word ’thief,’ a thought sparked in Ah Dai’s mind, reminding him of the purpose of his journey. Enlightened, he said, "You want to kill me, right? I can fulfill your wish."
Mie Feng was startled, thinking she had misheard, and asked with a frown, "What did you say? If you want to humiliate me, drop that thought now. I will not succumb."
A touch of desolation flickered deep within Ah Dai’s eyes as he responded softly, "I’m serious. You want to take my life for revenge, right? I can fulfill that. I’ve lived long enough already. But I have one condition. If you can agree to it and help me finish a task, then you may take my life without me resisting."
Mie Feng snorted disdainfully, "Conditions? Who are you trying to fool? With your current power, how could you simply submit to death? You’ve lived enough? Stop kidding."
Ah Dai sighed lightly, turned around, and said with his back to Mie Feng, "I have been an orphan since childhood, I have nothing to cling to in this world. Now I only have two wishes left. If I can fulfill these two wishes, what is death? It is merely a journey to another world. I swear, if you help me fulfill one of these wishes, I will not resist letting you kill me."
Though Ah Dai’s voice was calm, Mie Feng could hear the heartfelt sorrow in it. For some reason, her heart ached, and she frowned, "You’re serious, aren’t you?"
Ah Dai nodded, "Yes, I’m serious. I will tell you the condition first. Whether you agree or not is up to you. You should know that with my current strength, even if you ambush me, it’s hard to harm me, let alone kill me. And right now, I could take your life. Agreeing to my condition is your only chance for revenge."
Mie Feng, looking at Ah Dai’s imposing silhouette, clenched her teeth and said, "Fine, tell me the condition first."
Ah Dai said, "My two wishes are to complete a task for my mentor. The other is to eradicate the Assassin’s Guild. Uncle Owen’s kindness to me went unrepaid as he was killed by those bastards from the Assassin’s Guild. If I can fulfill these two wishes, I’ll have no regrets. I know your Thief’s Guild is the most informed organization on the continent. Since you’re an important member, you surely can use the Guild’s network to locate where the Assassin’s Guild bases are. My request is simple, just lead me to every Assassin’s Guild stronghold, and I can handle it myself. Once I’ve completely wiped out the Assassin’s Guild, your condition will be met, and then you can follow me to Tian Gang Mountain. After I accomplish the other wish, you can do as you wish with me. This is your only chance, consider it carefully."
Hearing that Ah Dai wanted to exterminate the Assassin’s Guild, Mie Feng was shocked, well aware of the Guild’s strength. Ah Dai might be powerful, but he was only one person; could he truly compete with the entire Assassin’s Guild? Considering this, Mie Feng said, "How can I trust that you alone have the power to eradicate the entire Assassin’s Guild? If you fail or let any of them escape, the Assassin’s Guild will surely know it was the Thief’s Guild that tipped you off, and their retaliation would cause irreparable damage to our entire Guild."
