Xu Luo emerged from Fengyue Building, his figure melting into the deep night as he walked on in silence.
From inside his pocket, Master Mao's voice piped up. "What, having regrets? It was just killing a couple of wenches. I told you before, if you couldn't bring yourself to do it, just let me…"
"I don't regret it," Xu Luo sighed softly. "I just don't understand. I have no quarrel with them, so why were they so dead set on killing me? Is it just because I'm friends with Phoenix?"
In truth, when Xu Luo had infiltrated Fengyue Building, his original intention wasn't to kill anyone. He had only meant to warn Crystal to stop causing trouble for him and the Xu Family.
Blame should be placed where it's due. The one who framed Xu Ji and caused the Wansong Town massacre was Crystal's master, Leng Yu Lian, not Crystal herself.
Although Crystal had sent assassins after him multiple times, Xu Luo had always assumed she was just following orders. He had never intended to kill her outright.
