Dark Phoenix Prince

Chapter 69: Decided to kill now



"I can't feel anyone's aura from here, they seem to be very far away."

"Well, this passage must be very deep. It might be connected to the dragon gate which is at the top of the mountain."

"I hope the opportunities in this passageway can help me break through to the second layer."

The second-tier faction heirs spoke.

Up front, Krinn who usually always looked relaxed showed a vengeful expression as he stared at the underground passage.

Even though Krinn was unlike the others who could have died under the siege of beasts, he was still the one to be most disadvantaged.

Next to Krinn, Arlo was actually smiling sarcastically when he saw Krinn's expression.

He says. "Krinn, your ambition doesn't seem small. Such a treasure, if you use it in the last battle, you might be able to beat the one who is in first place."

"Too bad. It's a shame." He shook his head with an obvious mocking expression.

Even though he and Krinn were allies, it was only to get rid of Jather. After that, their relationship was still unclear.

Of course, most importantly, he didn't want to see Krinn become the biggest winner.

If that was the case, Krinn would probably leave him far behind. It was something Arlo didn't want to see.

"Hmph." Krinn snorted coldly in response.

"Let's go in." He then said.

After which, he immediately stepped into the underground passage.

The people didn't dare delay, they immediately followed behind Krinn.

Behind, Alu who saw Krinn's action shook his head.

"A little boy is still a little boy..." Said Alu with a cynical expression.

Krinn is always relaxed because he wants to show people and maybe to himself that he is a calm minded person. However, losing a precious treasure still frustrated him.

"But I have to admit that I'm not that different either." Alu then said to himself.

He mocked Krinn, but he also realized that he had also been frustrated a few times before.

He did it because he wanted to remind himself. For those who are very young and inexperienced, there are some things that cannot be avoided.

Those things may seem simple to young people, but they can also backfire fatal. Even for experienced adults, those things can still happen and they can make them lose themselves.

Alu didn't want that to happen to him.

In order to do that, he needed to keep an eye on himself at all times. Most importantly, when he really lost control of himself, he had to be able to realize all of that, and of course, he had to be able to stop it at all times.

If he wanted to reach the highest peak, he had to have the perfect mentality. At least, don't let mental and emotional problems interfere with his cultivation.

They don't need to be thrown away but need to be controlled.

Many people say that in order to reach the highest peak, one must remove seven emotions and six desires from oneself.

But Alu didn't think that way.

"Seven emotions and six desires can propel a person to heaven, but they can also drive a person to hell. They are like a double-edged knife." Alu said.

"However, a double-edged knife is only dangerous for those who can't use it. For those who are skilled at using it, it is an invincible weapon."

"And seven emotions and six desires, if someone can control them, they can be the most important components to encourage someone."

When Alu thought that, his eyes suddenly flashed a bright light. No one could see it, but Alu could feel the change in him.

The change didn't make his cultivation increase in a single step, but Alu felt as if there were thousands of paths opening in front of him.

"Heh." Alu showed a faint smile, and it wasn't the fake smile he was used to. It was a pure smile that came from happiness.

Alu was at the very back, so apart from Roux and Reva following beside him, no one else noticed.

However, as he smiled, he still received a voice transmission from someone.

"Looks like you got enlightened." Rena said.

Alu wasn't surprised if Rena noticed him. Now Alu knew that the woman's ability to observe was a little beyond reason.

"Yeah, and I'll probably ask you a favor right now." Alu answered.

Now, Alu has decided what he will do.

All previous considerations had been thrown away by Alu, and Alu was sure what he would do was the best choice for him at this time.

Even though Jather has an unexpected secret, he can be put aside for now.

In the future, Alu can still find out Jather's secret.

Besides, since Jather's secret was so well hidden by the Holy Light clan, it might not be something good for them alone. After all, if the secret had to do with extraordinary talent, wouldn't they be better off sending Jather to a powerful sect.

Talent might bring disaster because it was a source of jealousy for many people, but in this world there were still many sects willing to protect talent as long as they joined their faction.

But why didn't the Holy Light clan do that to fight the lord of the Sleeping Dragon city.

The biggest possibility was of course because it wasn't talent but something bad.

And Krinn! If he succeeded with his plan, he might be able to grow even stronger. And Alu doesn't want to see unexpected things happen.

"So you want to act now?" Asked Rena.

"Right. This is their worst time. People are still exhausted, and Krinn just lost his ace."

"I want you to injure Krinn and Arlo. After that, I will give them a fatal blow. There is something from Arlo that I want, so I will target Arlo, and you will target Krinn." Alu explained his plan.

If it was just Krinn, Alu was sure he could kill him alone, but with Arlo's addition, Alu knew he couldn't kill them both at the same time. One of them will definitely be able to escape.

However, even if there was only Krinn himself, Alu would still choose to ask Rena for help.

The reason, of course, was because Alu didn't want to bear it all alone. Since Rena didn't mind doing anything as long as she was paid, Alu naturally wouldn't let go of the opportunity.

As for paying for one Nirvana spiritual weapon, Alu just chuckled inwardly.

"Oke." Rena answered. "You owe me one Nirvana spiritual weapon."

"No problem." Alu replied in a relaxed tone. But inwardly Alu sneered.

"By the way Miss Rena, since you already received payment from Krinn, why are you betraying him now? Are you really an Assassin with integrity?" Alu then asked.

Of course, Alu needed to be aware in case Rena betrayed him in the midst of their operation.

Rena seemed to know Alu's thoughts, so she quickly answered. "Don't worry, I never betrayed Krinn because from the start I never made a transaction with him."

"As for the previous one, it was a transaction between the Sleeping Dragon city lord and my clan. It has nothing to do with me." Rena explained.

Alu couldn't help but be surprised when he heard Rena's explanation.

"Aren't you afraid of causing trouble for your clan?" Alu then asked.

"As I said before, a true assassin are afraid of nothing."

"..."

"All right, you can start before they enter the passage. I'm sure your attacks are enough to make them suffer."

After that, they didn't speak anymore, they just waited for Krinn and Arlo to approach the underground passage.

Alu then spoke to Roux and Reva. He explained all his plans to them and the tasks they needed to do.

"I want you to hold onto the others for a while. I don't care how you do it, but I don't want to see anyone bother us."

"..." Roux and Reva

They looked like they wanted to cry.

But they didn't dare to argue back, they could only grit their teeth to strengthen their resolve.

Up ahead, Krinn and Arlo walked towards the passage with hasty steps. They just didn't know that the closer they got to the passageway, the closer they would be to their death.

Whooss...

When Krinn and Arlo were almost at the front of the passage, a sudden wind blew as a black shadow rushed from behind at an unimaginable speed.

People could barely notice the shadow, but Krinn and Arlo could still feel movement behind.

Of course, they still don't know what happened.

When they turned around, they saw that Rena had arrived in front of them.

"Re..." Krinn hasn't even finished saying Rena's name but his mouth was closed again when he felt a deadly attack directed at him.

He couldn't see the attack and didn't know where it was, but it really gave his back a chill. In just an instant his body was covered in cold sweat.

This is a very deadly attack.

Arlo who was beside him also felt the same way.

When they felt the attack, their eyes which were directed towards Rena immediately opened wide.

How could they not realize who was attacking them.

However, just knowing it wouldn't be enough to save them.

"Shit." The two of them shouted simultaneously.

They don't have time to think why Rena attacked them.

The only thing on their mind right now was how to withstand the invisible attacks that were coming their way.

Boom...
