Chapter 1014 - 991: As Foolish As Your Father
Before she turned eleven, she was a highly alert assassin, awakening instantly upon hearing the succession of footsteps outside.
She immediately stood by the window, listening to the hurried and chaotic footsteps outside, her eyes filled with caution.
"Quick!"
Someone whispered, and soon she heard the footsteps approaching her.
In almost an instant, Eleven was fully dressed, scanning the room before swiftly concealing herself.
Outside the door, several Tang Sect disciples silently arrived at her door, exchanged glances, then took out a small piece of wire, inserting it into the keyhole.
A gentle sound occurred as the door was opened; a few disciples entered the room, daggers gleaming coldly in their hands, as they quietly approached the bed.
But as they just entered the room, a figure flipped down from the dark wooden beam, and while still in mid-air, plunged their weapon fiercely into the neck of one disciple.
Thud!
Blood spewed, the dagger rose and fell, and was swiftly thrust into the throats of several other disciples.
Eleven's figure continued to descend, silently taking care of the disciples who hadn't even realized what had happened.
Eleven landed, lightly touched her toe to close the door, while more were coming outside.
She gathered her belongings, and with a tap on her feet, leaped up and punched through the roof, creating a human-sized hole, and flipped out into the open.
In no time, other disciples arrived in the room and upon seeing the dead, their expressions changed as they rushed to inform others.
The news reached Tang Hongtu's ears, and he slightly raised a corner of his mouth: "Indeed, Tang Dingtian's daughter has such skills, but no matter, she won't escape, continue searching."
"Yes."
Eleven moved lightly as a swallow in the Black Night, hastily traversing rooftops like a phantom.
Her brows furrowed slightly; clearly, something had gone awry at the Tang Sect, otherwise, she wouldn't be under assassination.
The immediate priority was to leave Tang Sect!
Eleven rapidly thought inside, instantly deciding her course of action.
Unsure of the situation within Tang Sect, the most crucial point was that she was alone, staying in Tang Sect would be too risky; leaving was imperative.
With this realization, Eleven raced toward the nearby forest path.
"Quick, this way!"
A hurried voice rang out, Eleven swiftly halted and pressed against the wall, restraining her breath to blend completely into the shadows.
A squad of Tang Sect disciples jogged past quickly, their expressions stern, armed with weapons.
The news that Eleven had escaped already spread, they were searching for her, ensuring she didn't get away.
Seeing the group pass, Eleven's foot tapped the ground, rushing into the forest path, moving swiftly as if employing Lightweight Skill, brushing past branches silently.
Suddenly, Eleven's expression changed dramatically, her rapidly moving figure abruptly halted, flipping backward.
Swish, swish!
A barrage of concealed weapons flew towards her, hitting the leaves behind her, slicing them off entirely.
Landing on the ground, Eleven looked ahead, seeing a young man there.
"Who are you?" Eleven asked grimly.
"Tangchen Pavilion."
The young man stepped out, his eyes roving boldly over Eleven, a hint of lust flickering faintly.
"I am Tang Hongtu's apprentice."
Eleven's heart sank slightly: "He wants to kill me?"
"No, precisely speaking, he wishes to capture you." Tangchen Pavilion smiled sinisterly.
"That depends on whether you have the ability."
With those words falling, Eleven didn't waste time, she dashed to the side.
"Your skill is nothing but child's play in the eyes of the Tang Sect."
Tangchen Pavilion's icy voice rang out, his figure almost instantly attached to Eleven, hands reaching to strike.
Eleven's figure didn't stop, twisting to avoid the attack as she dashed towards the forward tree.
"You better stay here."
Tangchen Pavilion taunted, closely following Eleven onto the trunk, ready to jump down when suddenly, his shadow flashed coldly in a deadly thrust upwards!
A cold shiver passed through Tangchen Pavilion's mind, leaning backward as Eleven seized the overhead branch, kicking him hard, sending him flying.
Moreover, Eleven's foot tapped again, propelling herself like a cannonball toward Tangchen Pavilion.
"A few moves only, your skills indeed can't compare!"
Tangchen Pavilion exaggeratedly sprang up, launching a hidden arrow from his sleeve aimed directly at Eleven advancing!
Eleven swiftly dodged, twisting her body just as the hidden arrow swooped towards her face.
Blood gushed forth from where she aimed the dagger, stabbing Tangchen Pavilion's neck!
So fast, extremely fast!
Tangchen Pavilion was in disbelief, pointing at Eleven: "You, you..."
Before he could finish, Eleven kicked him, withdrew the dagger, blood spraying forth unstoppably.
Eleven remained calm, knowing talkers often die quickly.
But Eleven was now more vigilant; they possibly blocked every escape route?
Her eyes flashing with thoughts, she quickly considered and bit her lip, realizing she must get out before it was too late.
Deciding, Eleven rushed forward, finding no more disciples on the mountain path, easing her breath.
Soon, she saw the mountain entrance, like a ghost behind a guard, slicing his throat.
The guard collapsed feebly, providing Eleven a chance to bolt far away.
Suddenly, a clapping sound rang out.
Clap, clap, clap!
Sharp and crisp, Eleven stiffened, sensing in that split moment, an overwhelming threat permeating the seemingly calm air.
"Truly Tang Dingtian's daughter to escape here." Tang Hongtu appeared behind her, smiling, "But your thinking mirrors your father's stupidity."
