The Hit List

Ling Chen nodded once, then immediately left to deliver the message.

Ling Tian had a grave expression as he looked at Ling Jian, "Ah’Jian, who is the fourth target?"

An expression of not knowing whether to laugh or cry appeared on Ling Jian’s face as he stuttered, "Cough… actually, the fourth target is of nearly negligible strength, so he’s used mainly as a backup. Because General Ling is heavily guarded, the assassins might not be able to execute their task. They decided that in the event they couldn't assassinate the general, then they would settle for someone else, then push the blame to another family to create chaos. However, because this person is too easily killed, the rewards are divided in half!"

Ling Tian opened his eyes wide in astonishment, finally bursting into crazed laughter, "So… the fourth target, isn’t it the Ling’s young noble, which is me?"
