Su Ruoxi walked straight into the Pavilion of the Assassins while holding onto the hands of Baby Su. A lady in blue sat on the counter, looking at the account book in her hands…

“Shopkeeper, get me a plate of spicy tofu!” Su Ruoxi walked in front of the counter and knocked on it while speaking with a smile.

“This is the Pavilion of the Assassins. Walk out and turn left if you are looking for food…” The lady raised her head, and her eyes lit up when she saw that it was Su Ruoxi. “Master, you are back!”

She was still wondering who would be so ignorant to come to the Pavilion of the Assassins and ask for a dish!

“Well, what brings you out today?” Su Ruoxi asked since she would usually be too lazy to station at the counter.

“Well, they said that the business wasn’t great lately! And they asked me to come out and attract some business with my pretty face!” the lady in blue said helplessly.

“… Xuemo, we are the Pavilion of the Assassins, not a house for prostitutes. Are you sure you can attract business?” Su Ruoxi said, chuckling.

Xuemo walked out as she spoke. She looked like a typical woman from the South, small and dainty. She had a special aura around her—lively like the peach blossom in spring, and calm like the chrysanthemum in autumn. She had a lean figure, and her voice and smile were clean and gentle.

It was hard to imagine that such a lady as graceful as water was the second master of the Pavilion of the Assassins.

“Baby, come over, call Aunty Mo! Xuemo, this is Baby Su!” Su Ruoxi pulled Baby Su over and introduced her.

Baby Su called the gorgeous lady in front of her while blinking her eyes, “Aunty Mo!”

“Wow, so you’re Baby Su! You are so old already. You’re really cute! Aunty Mo has heard about you for a really long time but has never gotten the chance to see you!” Xuemo looked down. When she saw Baby Su’s delicate features, she was overjoyed. She carried her up into her arms and kissed Baby’s face several times.

Even though Baby Su was not used to it, she did not despise Aunty Mo’s hug. She was familiar with the things and people in the Pavilion of the Assassins as Mother told her about them long ago…

It was to make sure that she would not be unfamiliar with everyone when she came over.

Ling Xuemo, female, 27 years old. She was saved by Su Ruoxi four years ago. Su Ruoxi walked past her when she was being chased. When Su Ruoxi met Ling Xuemo, she saw a group of men in black pinning the injured Ling Xuemo onto the ground and trying to rape her…

Su Ruoxi saved her. If the men in black only planned to kill her, Su Ruoxi might not have bothered.

However, upon seeing the assassins intending to rape a seriously injured lady, not only was that against the ethics of assassins, it was also inhumane…

Hence, she saved Ling Xuemo. After saving her, she found out that Ling Xuemo was also drugged by aphrodisiac. Inevitably, this reminded Su Ruoxi of her past…

Therefore, Su Ruoxi brought her to an inn in a nearby town and treated her poisoned and wounded body. After Ling Xuemo woke up, Su Ruoxi was about to ask her to leave, but then she realized that Ling Xuemo had forgotten about everything except for her name…

In other words, she lost her memory…

Su Ruoxi gave her a thorough check-up and found out that she lost her memory because there was a weird clog pressing on her memory nerves…

Even though she lost her memory, Ling Xuemo did not forget about everything. She only forgot everything regarding her family clan.

She could remember everything else such as cultivation…

Regarding such a phenomenon, even with good medical skills, Su Ruoxi could not explain why. Ling Xuemo saw Su Ruoxi as a dear friend of hers and refused to leave no matter what…

In the end, when she saw that Su Ruoxi insisted on her leaving, she signed the contract and acknowledged Su Ruoxi as her Master when Su Ruoxi was not paying attention…

Since the contract had already been signed, there was nothing Su Ruoxi could do but take Ling Xuemo in. At that time, she was planning to set up the Pavilion of the Assassins. Thus, she handed everything to Ling Xuemo…

As time passed by and Su Ruoxi’s medical skills improved, the clog in Ling Xuemo’s head was cleared long ago! Ling Xuemo had also retrieved her memory, but she refused to speak of anything…

Su Ruoxi did not question Xuemo. She had enough faith in her people. Since they were willing to go through fire and water for her, she would also be their biggest support…

Just like this, Ling Xuemo had always stayed beside Su Ruoxi. All the members of the Pavilion of the Assassins were hand-picked by both Su Ruoxi and Ling Xuemo, and then trained by Ling Xuemo according to the strict standards of Su Ruoxi.

Every member of the Pavilion of the Assassins had sworn their loyalty! Till today, except for Su Ruoxi and Ling Xuemo, nobody knew how many people the Pavilion of the Assassins had or how did they look like…

Su Ruoxi set up the Pavilion of the Assassins not only because she was an assassin in her past life, but also because this was a world that respected strength! Most importantly, it was because of the poison in Baby Su…

There was nothing she could do about the poison in Baby Su’s body. She had no news of any antidote. Furthermore, according to her Masters, it was likely that the poison in Baby Su’s body did not come from the Land of the Dancing Phoenix…

As Baby Su grew older, the frequency of her being affected by poison had also increased, and that brought pain in Su Ruoxi’s heart! These few years, she had traveled to every corner of the Kingdom of the Heavenly Phoenix, looking for related medicinal herbs, but there was no news…

Hence, she was determined to set up the Pavilion of the Assassins due to all these reasons. If someone was able to bring such poison to the Land of the Dancing Phoenix, he would certainly not be an ordinary person. If she didn’t make herself strong, how was she going to face these strong enemies in the future…

Thus, Su Ruoxi made the Pavilion of the Assassins come to light in such an extremely arrogant way. Her medical skills and poisoning skills were unparalleled! Killing someone was a piece of cake for her…

Even without using poison, she would be able to make use of anything to kill the target! Not to mention that she was now able to produce all sorts of poisons…

“Master, I have something to tell you!” Ling Xuemo’s voice interrupted Su Ruoxi’s thoughts.

“What is it?” Su Ruoxi asked.

“Didn’t you ask me to check on Su Ruomeng a few days ago? I’ve found some things!” Ling Xuemo said.

“Tell me about it. Do you have her whereabouts?” Su Ruoxi asked, slightly nervous.

After she took in the memories of the original owner, she listened to her Masters and stayed in the tomb to cultivate. Initially, she thought that those memories were all the memories of the original owner and did not give much thought about them…

However, a year ago, she started to have a recurring strange dream. In her dreams, a little girl, slightly older than her, called Su Ruomeng lived together with her since she was young and always stood in front of her when she was being bullied…

Again and again, she would get injured all over for her. The last time she did that was when the original Su Ruoxi was ten, on a cloudy and windy night.

The eldest and the second eldest daughter of the Prince’s mansion brought a group of men in black intending to rape Little Ruoxi. They locked Little Ruoxi in the room for firewood in the back courtyard of the Prince’s mansion. Right before anything happened, the sister who stood in front of Little Ruoxi several times appeared again…
