Chapter 233: Adopt Flexible Measures According to Circumstances

Seeing that the nine-tailed celestial fox pounced towards him, Ling Yun didn’t dodge as his left hand stretched casually to take Little White into his arms.

Tossing away the package with Deepa’s remnants in his right hand, Ling Yun smiled as he touched Little White’s head and back. They enjoyed each other’s company. After a while, Ling Yun put her down.

“Your injuries are not worsening anymore. In fact, the injuries look like they’re getting better…” Ling Yun smiled as he thought to himself, It doesn’t feel so bad after killing Deepa if Little White is with me tonight, right?

After Little White was put back onto the floor, its thick and big white tail started wagging around in the air. With its black, lovely and huge eyes, Little White stared at Ling Yun’s ragged appearance.

Ling Yun could sense Little White’s anxiety so he smiled and said with a gentle voice, “I’m fine. Only my shirt is slightly torn.”

Xiao Meimei’s bedroom door opened. She was wearing a translucent black nightgown. With her long black hair cascading down her back, Xiao Meimei walked out with a pair of drowsy eyes.

When she finally saw Ling Yun, her eyes opened wide in shock as she exclaimed dazedly, “This… What is this?”

Ling Yun moved his right leg and immediately kicked the package on the floor towards Xiao Meimei. Xiao Meimei instinctively caught it.

“Take a look at it yourself. I shall go have my bath first before talking to you about it.”

Ling Yun entered the bathroom. Without wasting a second, he removed all of his clothing and rushed into the shower.

Initially, Ling Yun really had suffered a bit in order to test whether Deepa’s skills were real. He had been whipped by Deepa over ten times. Even though he had his Stellar Condensation Technique, Deepa was not to be underestimated. Ultimately, being able to leave over ten scars on Ling Yun’s body was not an easy feat.

However, these were all superficial wounds which Ling Yun was used to. Therefore, he didn’t even frown or groan in pain when he washed his body.

After washing up, Ling Yun casually wrapped himself in a white bath towel as he put on his sandals and walked into Xiao Meimei’s bedroom.

Xiao Meimei had long since opened up the package. She laid the items out at the foot of the bed after checking all of them.

Deepa didn’t carry many items with him. He only had over twenty thousand dollars in cash, two bank cards, an exquisite communication device and of course, the pistol which Ling Yun had retrieved.

Xiao Meimei’s beautiful face no longer looked sleepy as she displayed an unprecedented seriousness. It could also be described by some people as fear.

“There is no need to be scared. He is already dead and is currently lying in the crater with Xuan Jiu,” Ling Yun reassured her when he saw Xiao Meimei’s frightened expression.

Naturally, Xiao Meimei knew that Deepa was already dead. As a killer of the Assassins Organization, they could lose everything except for their communicator. Unless the person was dead, losing the communicator would be equivalent to betraying the organisation.

Xiao Meimei reached out to grab the exquisite communicator as she took one more glance at the unique symbol imprinted on it. Xiao Meimei already knew that the dead person was Earth-ranked killer, Deepa.

At this moment, the shock and fear in her heart were very evident. In her eyes, Ling Yun would at most be an existence at the pinnacle of the black rank. However, even the killer Deepa had died at Ling Yun’s hands. What did that mean? What was Ling Yun’s actual realm?

Heaven-ranked? They must have been crazy to think that two black-ranked killers, two yellow-ranked killers and four marksmen could kill Ling Yun. It was simply an impossible dream!

Of course, Xiao Meimei’s astonishment was not because Ling Yun had killed Deepa. It was mainly because she had completely betrayed the organization. If the Assassins Organization knew that she wasn’t dead, she would definitely be facing an endless pursuit by the organisation for her life.

Xiao Meimei’s shock was from how frighteningly quick the organisation’s response was. She had just failed her mission yesterday night, and they had immediately sent Deepa over to find Ling Yun.

Now that Deepa was dead, this was no longer a problem that could be settled with money. Even if the person paying to kill Ling Yun was no longer willing to fork out more money, the organisation would undoubtedly sent more experts to collect Ling Yun’s head.

Even though Deepa was not considered some big shot in the Assassins Organization, he was worth at least 30 million USD. Just based on this point, the organisation was never going to let Ling Yun live comfortably in Qingshui City.

Moreover, this concerned the Assassins Organization’s prestige and their reputation in the assassins’ underworld. Up till today, the Assassins Organization had already lost nine killers just to kill an unknown Ling Yun. The higher ups in the China branch would certainly be furious.

Ling Yun casually sat beside Xiao Meimei, who was quietly holding on to the communicator on the bed. He said wryly, “What did you manage to discover?”

Xiao Meimei furrowed her brows as she pursed up her sexy lips. After pondering for a long time, she finally said in a low voice, “The person who died… His name is Deepa, and he is an Earth-ranked killer from the Assassins Organization’s China branch.”

“How can you tell?”

Xiao Meimei raised the communicator to Ling Yun’s face. “The Assassins Organization’s communicator is like an ordinary person’s ID. The symbol on every killer’s communicator is unique to them. Look, this part of the communicator has a large earth medal. A number 8 was carved on it in Arabic, which shows his codename in the organisation.” [TLN: Deepa in Chinese is Di Ba, which means “Earth 8”]

Ling Yun took the communicator from Xiao Meimei as he nodded at her. “Your organisation used such methods to identify each person?”

Xiao Meimei frowned at Ling Yun and said, “Of course, there are other special ways of communicating, but this is the most obvious and effective way…”

Ling Yun chuckled and said, “So does that mean that if I hold on to this communicator, I can pretend to be an Earth-ranked killer in the organisation?”

Xiao Meimei smiled and replied, “Once you open up this communicator, the organisation will instantly be able to track your location. If you’re not afraid of being tracked down by them, you can open it and try…”

Currently, Ling Yun’s face was extremely gloomy. After thinking for a long time, he said helplessly, “So what? Anyways, I am out in the open, while they are in the dark. The organisation can send people to find me any time they want.”

At the thought of the fact that he still needed to stay in this school for two months, Ling Yun’s head grew big. He had always been the one who hid in the dark. Since when did he end up being a target?

Who on earth hated him so much that he had to die?

Xiao Meimei looked at Ling Yun with her beautiful eyes as she nodded. “This is indeed going to be problematic for you. How about you don’t take the college entrance exam? We can leave this place and find a secret place to hide.”

Ling Yun nodded decisively. Hide? Where could he hide? Moreover, his mother and sister were both here, and so was the Shichiyou herb. It might be easy for him to hide, but he would also lose the opportunity to make use of the spiritual energy from the Shichiyou herb. He would be missing out on the opportunity to enter the next realm.

Ling Yun thought for a while before asking Xiao Meimei, “How do you think they will deal with me after this?”

Xiao Meimei instantly responded, “Very simple. Now that you’ve killed an Earth-ranked expert, they will either send more Earth-ranked experts or immediately send a Heaven-ranked expert over…”

Ling Yun couldn’t help but scratch his head as he secretly carved out a strategy. Eventually, he merely smiled which left Xiao Meimei confused.

“You’re not scared?” Xiao Meimei asked inquisitively.

Ling Yun let out an attractive smile as he replied in a lazy way, “Scared? Of course I’m scared, but what’s the point? All I can do is adopt flexible measures to deal with any circumstances that I might encounter…”

Xiao Meimei rolled her eyes at Ling Yun. She really hadn’t seen Ling Yun anxious before…

Ever since Xiao Meimei had crossed paths with Ling Yun, they hadn’t had much interaction. However, their interactions had always involved life and death. This was naturally different from other ordinary people. Because it involved life and death, it was a true reflection of a person’s character.

This was especially so during this morning’s intentional or unintentional intimacy which had transformed Xiao Meimei from a cold mysterious killer to a charming young woman. It was truly a drastic change in her mood.

She had already started to rely solely on Ling Yun. This was vastly different from when she had gone all out to complete her mission and kill Ling Yun.

Even though Ling Yun dared not open up Deepa’s communicator, he still asked for more details on how to use the communicator before stowing it away.

Ling Yun had an odd feeling that this item would be beneficial to him someday.

He smiled as he asked Xiao Meimei, “You really don’t know where the China’s branch of the organisation is located at?”

Xiao Meimei answered in a serious tone, “For killers below Earth rank, we can only rely on our communicator to accept all sorts of missions assigned to us. After the completion of our mission, we receive a sum of money as reward in our bank. We have absolutely no clue about anything else.”

Ling Yun followed up with another question, “What about those above Earth rank?”

Xiao Meimei smiled. “Naturally, those above Earth rank will know about it. It is a pity that Deepa has already been killed by you…”

However, Xiao Meimei’s expression changed drastically as she asked Ling Yun with a dazed face, “You… Why are you asking this? Don’t tell me you want to find trouble with the organisation?”

Ling Yun smiled coldly. “I don’t care who wants me dead so badly. However, since the organisation has accepted this mission, I will naturally make them pay!”

Xiao Meimei was slightly dazzled by Ling Yun’s smile, but her expression remained anxious. She went on to warn Ling Yun, “Do you know how many Heaven-ranked and Earth-ranked killers the China’s branch has? I’ll tell you. According to what I know, the Assassins Organization’s China branch has thirty-six Heaven-ranked killers and seventy-two Earth-ranked killers. They are known to be the thirty-six heavenly spirits and seventy-two earth spirits of the China branch.”

Ling Yun looked to be deep in thought as he nodded his head. He didn’t respond.

Xiao Meimei suddenly thought of something else.

“I’ve broken through to Houtian Level 3…” After saying that, Xiao Meimei let out a gorgeous and radiant smile.

Ling Yun had long since noticed that Xiao Meimei’s strength had a breakthrough. He chuckled. “Seems like the pain from the early morning channel regulation isn’t for nothing. Do you want me to give you some of my restriction technique so that you can quickly breakthrough to Level 4?”

Xiao Meimei was so frightened her face turned pale. “Screw you! How can you think of putting me through such pain? Won’t your heart hurt to see me in such pain?”

Before she could finish, her expression turned pitiful as she extended her fair arms and softly touched the scars on Ling Yun’s body. “Does it still hurt?”
