Seeing the dal at that instant, Ye Huan and Apollo understood why the man they were eting dared to embrace a decision for death that ordinary people wouldn't have, and in the Empress's mont of surprise, brazenly provoked her as a ans to seek death.
The reason was simple.
The person eting with Lin Xie ca from—Orochi in the Eastern Isles!
This dal, conspicuously, was the one worn by the Orochi ninja!
Orochi, the dark forces guarding the Eastern Isles, at its peak, possessed several experts above the Divine Ninja level—National Guardian Divine Ninja!
The strength of a National Guardian Divine Ninja was at the Celestial God Level!
It was said that one among them reached a level above the National Guardian Divine Ninja - Divine King Level!
At its peak, Orochi's overall power was on par with the Twelve Divine Halls, extrely formidable!
Even now, though Orochi's power has significantly diminished, far from its peak, it still ranks just below Huaxia's Dragon Gate and the Twelve Divine Halls, and its strength rivals other high-ranking dark forces like the Vatican Court!
Under its command are countless brainwashed ninjas and samurais not afraid of death, willing to dedicate their lives to Orochi's cause!
Clearly, the man making the contact was one of them!
"Our guess was indeed correct." Ye Huan slowly bent down, picked up the octagonal dal reflecting a chilling glint, squinted at it for a mont, then said coldly: "The Orochi behind the ninja who silenced Chen Bingfang indeed has a certain degree of connection with the Sequence."
"Moreover, Orochi absolutely has dealings with so major family in Huaxia."
Apollo kicked the headless corpse and smiled faintly, "Otherwise, how could a ninja from the Eastern Isles infiltrate Huaxia unnoticed by the Dragon Gate?"
"Indeed."
"The Chen Family, forrly the top family in Ninghai City;"
"The Yu Family, now a top-tier family in the Capital City;"
Ye Huan pondered for a mont and said, "These two family's overall strength is quite good, perhaps capable of creating a route to help ninjas infiltrate Huaxia silently."
"Tonight, I'll personally take a trip to Ninghai to investigate the dealings between these two families," the Empress, standing to the side, said coldly and expressionlessly.
"Alright." Ye Huan nodded.
Then, he slowly turned his gaze toward Lin Xie.
Fierce, icy light shot out from his eyes as he threw a punch!
This punch landed heavily on Lin Xie's abdon!
"Pfft!"
Lin Xie's body slamd deeply into the wall, screams of misery involuntarily escaping due to the intense pain from his abdon, blood gushing like a spring, even knocking the cyan mask off his face onto the ground!
After a mont of respite, he grimaced in pain and cried out in panic, "God of Slaughter, spare... spare ..."
"When you report back to your superiors, say that I ambushed your task exchange site and killed the person you were eting with." Ye Huan interrupted Lin Xie expressionlessly, "And that you barely escaped from my hands after taking the Cyan Level B-max despite being seriously injured."
"Under... understood..."
Lin Xie gritted his teeth, exerting a monuntal effort to yank himself out of the wall, then clutching his excruciatingly painful abdon, he stumbled and staggered out of the alley.
At the mont he erged from the alley, a trace of hatred flickered in his eyes!
He understood why Ye Huan threw that punch and delivered that ssage.
The contact man died, and he died during the task exchange with him, potentially causing suspicion from the Sequence.
But as long as he conveyed Ye Huan's very reasonable lie and showcased his injuries, it would significantly alleviate the Sequence's suspicion.
In doing so, he could continue acting as a mole within the Sequence.
But seriously, if you're just going to disguise serious injuries, makeup would have sufficed, why the hell did you actually need to go ahead with a real punch?
Could anyone casually withstand a Celestial God Level punch!
Lin Xie angrily spat, yet dared only to mutter quietly in his heart.
What he didn't know was.
Ye Huan delivered the punch as a lesson.
If Lin Xie hadn't blabbed, revealing their Celestial God Level powers to the contact, the contact would have resisted a bit more.
The situation wouldn't have led to the contact faking surrender, then provoking the Empress, only to be blasted to death with a palm strike!
"Why let Lin Xie tell his superiors in the Sequence that you ambushed their task exchange site?" Once Lin Xie's figure had completely disappeared from view, the Empress frowned and asked, "Isn't that equivalent to informing the Sequence you're counter-attacking and have ample knowledge of things related to them?"
With his hands in his pockets and a slight curl of a smile, Ye Huan replied, "Yes, that's precisely to make the Sequence's higher-ups aware."
The Empress raised her delicate brows, "You an..."
"Once the Sequence's higher-ups hear what I instructed Lin Xie to convey, they'll know I had prior knowledge of their task details. Consequently, they'll start suspecting if there's a mole among them."
"However, thinking with common reasoning, these top echelons would never suspect Lin Xie, who cos back heavily injured, 'on the brink of death,' yet striving to deliver such crucial information, as their initial suspect."
"Such a straightforward ssage not only makes Lin Xie's position in the Sequence safer but also incites mutual suspicion within their ranks, a situation we're more than happy to embrace!"
"Moreover, it might even allow us to manipulate this point extensively!"
Ye Huan exhaled a breath of foul air, the curve on his lips amplifying involuntarily.
Though the eting contact with Lin Xie was blasted by the Empress, losing a crucial lead indeed, it opened a path in another direction for counter-attacking the Sequence!
An enormous net had already taken shape in his mind!
The sches were quietly initiating.
Moreover, Ye Huan even began feeling that the contact man's death was quite fortuitous!
Ushering this current plot course, surely, they could annihilate the Sequence's outpost in Huaxia within a short ti!
If progress went smoothly, there'd definitely be ti a month later to go on a honeymoon with Liu Tianyun to France!
