Chapter 73 Murderous Intent
Yelena must’ve sensed the murderous intent too, which was why she returned to her room to change into her night suit. Emrys was already aware of Yelena’s secret identity.
Back when they first met and exchanged blows, he ascertained she was an assassin because no ordinary person could fight the way she did.
However, he didn’t look into it because, no matter what she did, she was his sister. Additionally, she still doted on him as she did in the past.
Therefore, Emrys respected Yelena’s decisions.
He watched Yelena bolt toward the source of the murderous intent. Just as he was about to follow her after jumping out of the window, he ceased his movements. I sense another killing intent! There are two assassins here tonight!
Frowning, he speculated, In this case, their target may not be Yelena. It’s possible one purposefully led Yelena away. Is their target me or the others in the building? I don’t know why they’re here, but they’re as good as dead for barging into this place.
Concurrently, the assassin hiding in the darkness had spotted Emrys. Upon confirming Emrys was one of his targets, he prepared to strike.
Unbeknownst to him, his murderous intent had already exposed him, even though he thought he had concealed it well.
Emrys intentionally turned away, leaving his back exposed to the assassin.
The assassin was vigilant as he patiently waited for a few more minutes before attacking.
In a flash, he flung a sharp blade toward his target.
Right before the tip of the blade reached Emrys‘ back, he twirled around. He fixed a cold gaze on the assassin, frightening the latter.
Trembling, the assassin thought, None of my peers has a look as terrifying as his! Still, he’s going to die!
While stifling his fear, he watched his weapon glint coldly as it zipped toward his target’s heart.
What happened next bewildered him.
The blade did stab into Emrys‘ chest, right where his heart was located, with great force. However, instead of piercing into his flesh, the blade was stuck, as though his muscles were made of metal.

an expert? The color drained from the assassin’s face. During his brief daze, he felt something smash into his shoulder. Soon, he was dragged away from the mansion’s vicinity.

he felt as though his soul had departed his b*dy, and he was unable to return to his senses.
Suddenly, Emrys cracked the assassin’s rib with a kick and interrogated, “Who sent you?”
The assassin gritted his teeth in pain but kept quiet.
Information about clients had to be kept a secret. That was the basic principle of the assassins.
“Not going to tell me, are you?” Emrys kicked again, breaking more of the assassin’s ribs and puncturing the latter’s innards.
Blood poured from the assassin’s nose and mouth as he roared, “I won’t tell you anything! You may as well just kill me!”
