'Just who would pay such an astronomical price to have me killed?'
'I've offended quite a few people since my rebirth, but they were all just small fries. Take Leng Yan from the Jingzhe Guild, for example. She couldn't possibly afford the fee, even if she sold everything she owned.'
'It couldn't be... one of those Cult Organizations, could it?'
Gu Yuexi's expression grew grave.
'It seemed only those lunatics would harbor such baseless, all-consuming hatred for the Federation's geniuses, seeking to stamp them out at any cost...'
'If it really is them, then this could get troublesome.'
'But that's all just speculation for now. Nothing is certain.'
She knew the assassin was telling the truth. Hell Gate's confidentiality system was Top Notch, among the best in the world. It was impossible to get the mastermind's name out of him.
In that case...
Gu Yuexi's eyes turned cold. She sent a thought to Chu Sheng through their Blood Covenant.
"He's of no more use."
