It was precisely Yelena’s higher–up, Hawkeye.
“Nightrose, I presume I need not elaborate on the reason for my visit?” The voice of the man known as Hawkeye had been specially altered by a voice changer pinned to his collar.
Upon seeing Yelena enter, he went straight to the point. His pair of sharp eyes seemed as if they wanted to pierce through Yelena’s b*dy.
Yelena’s expression didn’t change in the slightest as she said coldly, “I don’t understand what you’re saying.”
“Black Reaper and White Reaper. It was you who killed them,” Hawkeye asserted with unusual certainty.
His words didn’t sound like an interrogation but more like a conclusion. It was a result he had deduced from the clues he knew, and it was also the most probable outcome.
Yelena fell into a brief silence.
Initially, when Black Reaper and White Reaper sneaked into Verdant Estate, Black Reaper inexplicably vanished. As for White Reaper, he was struck by a bolt of lightning during his fight with Yelena, leaving no trace of his b*dy. At that time, Yelena found it strange, but it all made sense when she later learned about Emrys‘ identity as a cultivator.
Those two individuals were undoubtedly killed by Emrys.
The situation was essentially no different from having killed someone herself, so Yelena didn’t deny it. She said, “Black Reaper and White Reaper deserved to die. They were planning to harm my loved
ones.” NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.
“Nightrose!” Hawkeye’s look pierced through the darkness like a spotlight. “From the moment you decided to enter Shadow Garden, you lost all ties to your family.”
Yelena shook her head, offering no response.
Hawkeye then said, “I understand the capabilities of the three of you. You are definitely not a match for either Black Reaper or White Reaper. Therefore, you must have some assistance. Am I right?”
Yelena remained silent.
With a cold laugh, Hawkeye said, “It seems you no longer have the desire to stay in the organization.”
Once again, he saw through Yelena’s intentions. A chilling intent to kill suddenly erupted within him. ready to eliminate the traitor of his organization.
Yelena gritted her silver teeth. The moment she decided to meet with Hawkeye, she knew an inevitable fierce battle would ensue between them. Thus, after a brief pause, she abruptly hurled a sharp spike, aiming straight for Hawkeye’s heart.
Clang!
Chapter 238 Battle Of Assassins
Sparks flew.
Hawkeye was clearly more experienced than Yelena. A cold blade appeared in his hand, effortlessly deflecting the sharp spikes. Then, like a hunting cheetah, he leaped up, bursting forth with astonishing speed.
“Nightrose, you’ve been foolish. Betraying the organization at this time, it’s not a wise move at all.” In the blink of an eye, Hawkeye arrived in front of Yelena, smirking.
The chilling glint in his hand, like a swift wind, was already thrusting toward her snow–white neck.
The great battle was on the verge of breaking out.
Yelena didn’t dare to slack off, either. The person before her was her superior, whose strength was incomparably greater than that of Black Reaper and White Reaper. Therefore, she retaliated with all her might at the very first opportunity.
In an instant, life energy surged.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Yelena had only recently become a cultivator, with her abilities barely reaching the first rank of energy cultivation. She could just about hold her own against the attacks from Hawkeye.
After a simple exchange, Hawkeye had noticed something unusual about Yelena. Her strength had increased too rapidly. In the past, he believed that Yelena could never match up to the unpredictable opponent, but that confrontation had completely changed his perspective.
The strength of Yelena was undoubtedly superior to that of Black Reaper and White Reaper at that point.
What on earth was going on? Hawkeye quickly noticed the palm of Yelena, upon which a faint blue current was flowing. It was that very current that Yelena had relied on to catch his attack barehanded and even counterattacked with considerable force, causing him a numbing sensation.
“When did you become a cultivator?” Hawkeye’s pupils slightly contracted.
He had already discerned that Yelena was a cultivator and sneered, “This makes it even more imperative that I can’t let you go. Today, I must eliminate you, traitor!”
Once a cultivator had grown, they became incredibly formidable.
Therefore, Hawkeye had to take advantage of the time when Yelena’s stage was not high and deal with her. That was also thanks to the early discovery. If it had been a bit later, he might have really been unable to handle her.
