Looking at the countdown, Ling Mo Xie no longer hesitated and quickly got out of bed, dressed in a hurry, and jumped out of the window.
Damn it! Where am I supposed to escape to? Ling Mo Xie was completely unfamiliar with the vast Ling Mansion! The memories he inherited didn’t have many scenes far from his small courtyard!
Ling Mo Xie, like a headless fly, randomly chose a direction and directly used the skill "The Yard Suddenly Became Chaotic," darting around in the darkness like a ghost! At this moment, Ling Mo Xie was cursing all the gods in the sky!
His heart was pounding. Just half a month ago, he was still an upstanding citizen who went to work every day and played games! He had only seen things like being chased in melodramatic TV shows!
Life is truly unpredictable! Ling Mo Xie couldn’t believe that he was actually fleeing from a pursuit!
After all this commotion, ten minutes had already passed. Just as the countdown in front of Ling Mo Xie reached zero, a figure dressed in black with an indistinct face entered his shabby little room! It was precisely on time!
"Swish!" The black-clad figure stabbed a sword into the bed, and their blurred face immediately twisted, clearly realizing that Ling Mo Xie was not in bed! The black-clad person formed a hand seal and chanted incantations, then rubbed their nose. The indistinct shape of their nose twitched, and they immediately jumped out of the window, chasing after the direction Ling Mo Xie had fled!
At this moment, Ling Mo Xie was lost in the vast Ling Mansion, running around aimlessly and occasionally darting into other people's rooms. A sound came from behind him, startling Ling Mo Xie like a frightened bird; he quickly turned to look back and saw a shadow flickering in the darkness, rushing towards him!
Ling Mo Xie's hair stood on end; he dared not stay for even a moment longer. Using "The Yard Suddenly Became Chaotic" skill, he ran forward with all his might as if his life depended on it!
"Whoosh!" A sword light struck towards Ling Mo Xie from the darkness. He hurriedly took out the Slaughtering Knife to defend himself but saw several cracks appear on it!
He couldn't fight back! The words flashed through Ling Mo Xie's mind as he ran for his life. Suddenly, he remembered an item he had deemed useless when he was slaughtering ducks!
Seeing the black-clad figure getting closer, Ling Mo Xie no longer hesitated. He took out a Yellow Rubber Duck and muttered to himself: I'm not childish; I'm really not childish!
This item is called Five Hundred Ducks! As for its effect, can you still sleep soundly amidst the noise of Five Hundred Ducks?
With a squeak like a plastic toy, Ling Mo Xie gently squeezed the Yellow Rubber Duck, and immediately, the sound of "quack, quack!" echoed from all directions, resounding throughout the Ling Mansion!
The quacking seemed to come from everywhere—below, above, left, right? The "quack" sounds were everywhere; even if one covered their ears, they could still hear it! Moreover, this "quack" was not only loud and high in decibels but also chaotic rather than uniform!
Often, one would hear a quack from one side, and another quack would come from the opposite side—there was no escaping it!
Almost the moment the sound erupted, all the candles in the rooms lit up simultaneously! The shadow following Ling Mo Xie also swayed and nearly fell from the ceiling to the ground!
"It seems that the little yellow duck is indeed powerful! No wonder it is so popular on Earth!" Ling Mo Xie chuckled and quickened his pace, fleeing toward an Elder's room!
Before he could get close, a voice called out: "Who!" At almost the same time, a loud crash came from within the room, and a beam of sword light shot out toward Ling Mo Xie's position!
Ling Mo Xie chuckled lightly and used a Small Red Bottle. He quickly left, but the black-clad figure following him was not so fortunate. Just as it reached where Ling Mo Xie had been, two beams of sword light came at him in succession!
"Swish!" The black-clad figure was so focused on chasing Ling Mo Xie that he momentarily let his guard down and was struck by a beam of sword light that pierced his chest, blood dripping continuously like rolling beads. The Elder inside the room saw that the little thief outside had taken this hit and was still alive. Without thinking twice, he flew out to check and saw it was a black-clad figure; without hesitation, he attacked!
What normal person would be running around in black clothes in the middle of the night? He must be up to no good!
At this moment, the entire Ling Mansion had already been awakened by Ling Mo Xie's little ducks. Hearing the sounds of fighting nearby, everyone rushed over to see Elder Four engaged in battle with a black-clad figure. Without a second thought, they joined in to help Elder Four capture the black-clad man!
Their thoughts were aligned with those of Elder Four: what normal person would sneak into someone else's home dressed in black at such an hour? There must be ill intentions!
Ling Jiuyin also arrived at the scene of the fight and saw the black-clad person surrounded by his own Grand Elders. A jolt ran through him as he immediately guessed that this must be the assassin he had hired to kill Ling Mo Xie! How did they end up fighting with his Elders here?
The Elders, unaware of Ling Jiuyin's thoughts, called out when they saw the family head arrive, "Head! We found a little thief! Come help us! Let's catch this little thief together!"
Ling Jiuyin felt helpless! Should he tell these Elders that the "little thief" they were talking about was actually an assassin? That he had invited him to kill Ling Mo Xie? If he said that, it would mean his doom when the envoy arrived tomorrow!
Thus, Ling Jiuyin had no choice but to join the fray, though he was only going through the motions and letting the assassin escape.
At this moment, Ling Mo Xie had returned to his small room, changed into a middle garment, and rubbed his eyes as he walked over. He asked a fellow Ling Family Disciple, who was also dressed in a middle garment and excitedly watching the battlefield, "Hey! Brother? What's going on?"
"Tch," the Ling Family Disciple glanced at him disdainfully. "You don't know? You just got here? You really slept like a log! That black-clad person is some little thief who was discovered by Elder Four! The head and the Elders are trying to catch him! Look! Almost everyone has come to watch the fun! And you just arrived now!"
Ling Mo Xie chuckled inwardly: Could this become a major failure in the assassin world? Being mistaken for a little thief and captured? They really were losing face as assassins!
But seriously, this assassin's strength was still decent for Maple Town. Despite being besieged by five mid-to-late stage Lingxu Elders and a bystander like Ling Jiuyin, he could hold on for so long!
To use an assassin at least at the Late Stage of Spirit Void to kill me! They really think highly of me, Ling Mo Xie sighed.
