King of Assassins-Chapter 923 - 649: Mutation

The Holy Hall is the largest organization of the Alliance, with its most important duty being the eradication of the Evil God.

The Holy Hall is very knowledgeable about the Evil God and has developed numerous magics and magical artifacts to target it.

Due to the Evil God's particular nature, finding the Evil God has become the biggest challenge.

For this purpose, the Holy Hall has dedicated magics and artifacts for locating the Evil God.

The Evil God that the Holy Hall intends to eliminate is almost always destroyed. In situations like Sea Emperor Star, it's mainly because the Holy Hall is not very concerned.

To allow the Evil God to grow strong, one must indulge the Evil God.

This time, sending Shui Yunlan was merely to test Shui Yunlan's capabilities.

If Shui Yunlan can kill many Evil Gods, it's obviously a good thing. If she can't, it doesn't matter much.

If Shui Yunlan is unlucky and gets killed by the Evil God, it can only be said that Shui Yunlan is incompetent.

There are too many weaklings and worthless people in this world, those who are incompetent truly don't deserve to live.

This system of the Holy Hall is somewhat cruel. That is also because there are too many people in the Holy Hall, and such an elimination system must be adopted to remove the useless waste.

As for the true direct lineage of the Noble Families, naturally, they have the means to rise. They don't need to fight so desperately.

Jin Hongtao is also a direct line of the Jin Family, similar in status within the family to Shui Yunlan, except he is slightly less talented and lacks in handling affairs, so he ended up under Shui Yunlan.

Truth be told, Jin Hongtao feels quite disgruntled towards Shui Yunlan, believing that this woman is just lucky and knows how to carry herself. Can she be more skilled than him? He doesn't believe it.

There are many magical artifacts and magics to find the Evil God, but one must be a Golden Core Level expert to wield them.

If finding the Evil God were so easy, the local Holy Hall would have already wiped them all out. They wouldn't need the headquarters to send people.

Jin Hongtao hardly respects Shui Yunlan, so he definitely wouldn't respect Gao Xuan. He feels Gao Xuan is full of big talk and is particularly disgusted by him.

He said unabashedly, "Kid, don't speak nonsense. This is the Holy Hall, we are the investigation team. What if you can't find the Evil God?"

Gao Xuan ignored Jin Hongtao, and Gao Xuan's dismissive attitude further enraged Jin Hongtao.

Jin Hongtao forcefully slapped the table, "Kid, I'm talking to you. Do you understand how to respect your elders?"

Several guys who were friendly with Jin Hongtao also began to speak up, "You're just an intern investigator, already acting so arrogant, what are you trying to do?"

"Coming from the lower class, you should be aware of your position."

"Do you know what you're doing?"

Everyone aimed their criticism at Gao Xuan, making Shui Yunhao a bit embarrassed. He felt Gao Xuan wasn't being sensible, but as he was the one who brought him, it didn't look good on him.

Being put in a difficult position by everyone, Shui Yunhao could only look towards Shui Yunlan for help, hoping his sister would step in.

Shui Yunlan looked around at the others, and somewhat intimidated by Shui Yunlan, they all shut up and said no more.

Shui Yunlan said to Gao Xuan, "This is everyone's first time working with you, it's inevitable that they have doubts about you."

She asked, "How much time do you need to find the Charm Demon?"

Gao Xuan said, "In this city, it won't take long, one or two hours maybe."

Jin Hongtao sneered, "If you can find the Evil God within two hours, I'll acknowledge you as the boss."

He asked Gao Xuan in reverse, "What if you can't find it?"

Gao Xuan asked, "What do you want to do?"

Jin Hongtao turned his gaze to Yuan Youyuan just as he was about to speak, but Shui Yunlan's face darkened, "That's enough."

Jin Hongtao felt somewhat unwilling, but under Shui Yunlan's icy gaze, he ultimately said nothing.

"Alright, let's rest for three hours first."

Shui Yunlan said to Hai Ting, "Go prepare a flying ship. We leave in three hours."

Hai Ting hurriedly nodded in agreement and rushed out to prepare.

Hai Ting soon returned, leading everyone to the arranged room to rest.

The Holy Hall is quite large inside, and Hai Ting led the investigation team to the advanced VIP area.

This place is decorated in a Western-style palace manner, using marble and gold as materials, with a grand and luxurious style.

Gao Xuan and Yuan Youyuan naturally stayed together. When they entered the room, they saw Jin Hongtao at the other end of the hallway holding Hai Ting's small hand, laughing lewdly.

Hai Ting had her head down and shoulders hunched, looking fearful and shy.

Yuan Youyuan couldn't bear it anymore, she shouted, "Jin Hongtao, what are you doing?"

Jin Hongtao glanced at Yuan Youyuan, "Why do you care what I do, do you want to join us?"

Yuan Youyuan's face turned cold, but the Holy Hall strictly forbids private fights. His words were offensive, but she couldn't really take action.

She said to Hai Ting, "Hai Ting, you don't need to be afraid, no one can force you. Come over to this sister's place."

Hai Ting kept her head down, her expression unclear, only her snowy soft neck visible, her lips moved slightly but ultimately said nothing.

Jin Hongtao laughed triumphantly, he forcefully yanked Hai Ting, causing her to stumble and be dragged into the room.

Jin Hongtao raised his eyebrow at Yuan Youyuan again, "Mind your own business, don't mess with me!"

Without waiting for Yuan Youyuan to speak, Jin Hongtao forcefully shut the door.

Yuan Youyuan was furious, she said to Gao Xuan, "This man is bullying Hai Ting, aren't you going to do something?"

Gao Xuan shook his head slightly, "If he's going to bring about his own death, why should I stop him."

"What do you mean?"

Yuan Youyuan was somewhat puzzled, "Are you saying Hai Ting has a problem?" 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦

Gao Xuan pulled Yuan Youyuan back into their room, "The waters are deep, don't rush to save someone just because you see them struggling, perhaps they are a water ghost."

"Mysterious as ever, say it clearly."

"Whether it's ulterior motives or making compromises, it's her choice. She's not a child, don't interfere too much..."

Gao Xuan didn't explain further, this matter truly was rather complicated.

Three hours quickly passed, and everyone gathered in the meeting room once more.
