Path Of The Lilies 238 Revenge Against Wei Family

"Master, you're surprisingly good at acting," Wei Liao remarked when they reached the training grounds.

Ye Jiao flicked a glance. "I'm an a.s.sa.s.sin, so I also learn how to blend into the crowd."

"…" did it have anything to do with her being an a.s.sa.s.sin?

Not minding the confused young man, Ye Jiao made her way to the training ground with Wei Liao following behind her. It was still spring, so a lot of guards were busy training on the field. Using her Eon Energy, Ye Jiao disguised her presence and made her way to the location of the special squad.

From a distance, Ye Jiao could see Mu Hong busy training the soldier. Seeing him again made Ye Jiao recall a lot of memories from her past.

This was the place where she first met with that general and met with her first friends. He might be someone from the military, but the kindness that the general showed was much more than what she expected.

Turning her eyes to the wall, Ye Jiao utilized her Eon Energy and pushed Wei Liao up into the other side.

Bruk!

Soon afterwards, Ye Jiao followed and entered the forest. She looked at Wei Liao, who was busy rubbing his back.

"Master, can't you tell me beforehand when you want to do something like that?"

Ye Jiao pointed to the direction of the houses. "They should be there. You should go now."

"Mas-?"

Before Wei Liao could finish his words, a guard appeared before them. Ye Jiao swiftly moved to the side and used her dagger to slit the man's stomach, pulling out his intestines out of his body. Blood splattered on the ground where the man fell and Ye Jiao moved to the other side and stabbed a guard that was about to attack her.

Everything happened in mere seconds to the point that Wei Liao was unable to believe his eyes. He had seen Ye Jiao's rank because she used her Eon Energy before, but this would be the first time he saw her use it for real. The way she moved was so swift without any waste movements.

The guards directly fell on the ground because of her.

"Move now, Wei Liao."

"Ah! Yes, Master!"

Wei Liao quickly moved on the forest trail into the residential area. This was an abandoned place because it used to be the place where Ye Jiao's mother stayed. Wei Sheng didn't care for this place and let it be abandoned without anyone to tend it anymore.

As he was already familiar with the layout, it didn't take long for Wei Liao to reach Wei Mi's quarter. He easily evaded the servants as he could remember their schedule and location. Because he wanted to gain favor from Wei Mi, he used to memorize them all.

Now that he thought about it, his action from before was truly laughable. His own sister never treated him as a family member and only used him for her own advantage.

"AHHHHHH!"

The scream of a woman stopped Wei Liao from his track. He quickly headed to the right side of Wei Mi's quarter when he saw that girl was standing with her arm crossed. In front of her were several servants. One of them was bowing on the ground with tears stained her face, begging Wei Mi for mercy.

"Miss, this servant was wrong, please forgive me!"

"Again," Wei Mi instructed the servant coldly. She was getting bored because her father forbade her from getting out of her quarter. Except from training, the only thing she could do would be interacting with her servants.

Of course, she would only use this chance to torture them.

Behind the tree, Wei Liao was practically holding in with everything he had. Now that he saw it from another perspective he realized how foolish it was for him to act the way he did before. He had caused the lives of numerous people to be filled with misery just because he followed after Wei Mi's instruction.

That girl never changed.

She always thought of herself as someone above these people and that it would be alright for her to do everything she wanted. No one would be able to stop her to do anything she wished to do.

Why?

Well, she is the genius of the Wei Family. No one could be compared to her.

"Tsk, this is so boring," Wei Mi's words brought Wei Liao back to his senses. He saw Wei Mi waving her hand to dismiss the group of people before her. It was clear that she no longer has any interest in torturing that particular servant anymore.

"Miss, the dinner will be ready in an hour. Do you want to wash yourself first?"

"No, I want to take a stroll," Wei Mi replied. She turned her body around to the other side of the residence.

Wei Liao was about to follow when he sensed something near her.

Thud!

A body fell near him. Seeing the blood stained man, he tried his best to hold on his urge to vomit. The way Ye Jiao killed them was extremely precise as she hit their vital spot and caused them to die so quickly.

Tep!

Ye Jiao stood before Wei Liao. Her face was expressionless. "Are you planning on staying there for the rest of the day?"

"Ah, no, but."

"I'll take care of the guards and servants, so you just go."

"Ok."

Wei Liao slipped while using the tree to cover his body. Ye Jiao looked at the servants around her as her eyes glinted with ruthlessness. She still remembered the way they also followed along with Wei Mi's order and directly made things difficult for her. Even though they mostly jeered at her covertly, she couldn't forget it so easily.

She would not spare them.

Slas.h.!.+ Swis.h.!.+ Slas.h.!.+

Many of them didn't even know what had happened when they suddenly felt pain and died. Ye Jiao moved so swiftly and took care of the surrounding servant, leaving none of them alive.

Soon enough, the smell of blood plagued the entire quarter.

Wei Mi was walking without thinking much. She was just getting bored of her new situation that her father forced her to do. Even though she understood that it was for her own good, she still didn't like it.

"Bring me some water," Wei Mi ordered.

"Yes, Miss."

As the servant beside her left, Wei Mi stretched her body and walked to the nearby garden. Her brow creased when she started to smell the metallic tang of blood around her.

Did the servant kill a beast nearby for dinner?

In the next moment, she sensed danger and quickly jumped back.

Swis.h.!.+ Slas.h.!.+
