Chapter 465: The Employer Behind

Late at night, the city of Tokyo did not become quiet as the sun went down, but became more and more noisy, as if the night was the real beginning of the day.

Standing alone on the balcony, Zhang Ziling looked at the night sky illuminated by the city's neon lights, wondering what he was thinking.

At this moment, Ami had fallen into a deep sleep, and the apartment was pitch black.

Zhang Ziling did not turn on the lights.

"Come out, don't hide behind."

After a while, Zhang Ziling turned to the living room and sat directly on the sofa.

In front of Zhang Ziling, Ji's figure gradually appeared, and there was some surprise in his eyes.

"You already knew I existed?" Ji looked at Zhang Ziling and asked, a little shocked.

There is absolutely no way for an ordinary person to discover himself, although Ji thought that Zhang Ziling was just an ordinary person before, so he did not seriously hide his aura... But Zhang Ziling was able to discover himself hidden in the dark, which also shows that As a matter of fact, Zhang Ziling's strength is definitely not simple!

"So, what are you here for?" Zhang Ziling didn't answer Ji's question, but looked at Ji and asked softly, with a relaxed smile in his eyes.

"It looks like I've been underestimated by you!" Ji looked at Zhang Ziling carefully, and heard Zhang Ziling's relaxed tone, a playful smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, she waved her hand directly, and a chair not far away flew away to Ji's back.

Ji crossed her chest with her arms and looked at Zhang Ziling with Erlang's legs crossed, "Or do you think that you will definitely beat me by relying on your own strength?"

Zhang Ziling glanced at Ji Hun's round and smooth thighs, and then the corner of his mouth twitched slightly, "The figure is very good, especially those legs... but it's a pity."

"What a pity?" Ji raised her eyebrows and asked, "Can you tell my sister, why do you say that?"

A purple dagger slowly condensed beside Ji, and finally landed in Ji's hand, "If the answer convinces my sister, maybe your death will be less painful."

"Can you answer one of my questions first?" Zhang Ziling didn't explain what he just said, but looked at Ji and asked with a smile.

"Interesting..." The dagger swirled in Ji's palm, "You are the first person who can talk to me so calmly after seeing me. Those people lost their sense of restraint after trying for a while."

"So I was thinking,

Are you pretending to be calm now? Ji stretched out the tip of her tongue and licked her bright red lips, squinting to look at Zhang Ziling, there was a chilling killing intent in her eyes, which seemed to make the temperature of the whole room drop a bit.

Feeling the killing intent emanating from Ji that was about to solidify, the expression on Zhang Ziling's face did not change. He just looked at Ji and asked lightly, "Are you from the Tokugawa clan or the Sheqi Ba clan?"

"Let's ask this question in hell later!" Ji looked at Zhang Ziling and smiled, a cold light flashed in her eyes, and then her whole body turned into a black line and shot at Zhang Ziling, only the cold sword light was there. This dark room flashed by.

Looking at the dagger that stabbed him in the face, Zhang Ziling's eyes were still indifferent, and he did not take the poison-coated dagger in his eyes.

"Goodbye, little brother~" Ji Yinrou's voice sounded in Zhang Ziling's ear, the dagger had already pierced Zhang Ziling's face, "Remember in the next life, don't take things that don't belong to you!"

After a while, the sound of the blade piercing the forehead did not come out as Ji imagined, and the whole room became extremely silent.

"Quiet, but there are children sleeping..." Zhang Ziling used his index finger to gently brush away the tip of the knife that was blocked by his own finger, and then smiled at Ji Wen.

Before Ji could react, Zhang Ziling grabbed his entire arm, and then Zhang Ziling dragged Ji and flew out of the balcony!

"Ah!!!" Ji shouted, she didn't expect that one day she would be pulled into the air by someone.

Zhang Ziling glanced indifferently at Ji who was in a panic. The poisonous dagger fell from his hand because of Ji's panic, and fell without a trace.

Without saying anything, Zhang Ziling grabbed Ji and flew to the sky.

On the rooftop of a certain building, Zhang Ziling leaned on the guardrail and silently looked at Ji who was retching on the ground, and couldn't help but teased softly, "I didn't expect that as a stranger, there is a fear of heights."

"Yes, I want you to take care of it!" Ji felt that her legs were shaking at the moment, and the rapid flight in the air for a short while just didn't make Ji cry.

Now Ji even forgot that her purpose was to kill Zhang Ziling!

"You can speak loudly here without disturbing Amei..." Zhang Ziling looked at Ji and said lightly, "Tell me, are you from the Tokugawa family or the Sheqi Bajia."

Ji came back to his senses, and looked at Zhang Ziling with some horror. As a person who has practiced ninja since childhood, he has never seen anyone other than Onmyoji who can fly in the sky!

And Zhang Ziling is obviously not a power user, and it can't be a ninja or an onmyoji... If these are ruled out, there is only one possibility left!

"You are a monk from Huaxia!" Ji exclaimed.

"I'm asking you a question now." Hearing Ji's exclamation, Zhang Ziling's eyes narrowed, and a cloud of demonic energy suddenly appeared around Ji and bound Ji tightly, "I'll give you one last time. Chance, answer my question, or...die!"

Seeing a black dagger slowly condensing in front of him, the icy aura emanating from the dagger made Ji's heart tremble.

Ji had a feeling in her heart that if Zhang Ziling wanted to kill her, this dagger could easily pierce her heart and take her life away in an instant!

"I-I'm not from those two forces..."

Ji quickly finished thinking in her heart, but still felt that her life was more important, and finally chose to answer Zhang Ziling's question honestly.

Life is important!

"Oh? Not from those two forces..." Hearing Ji's words, Zhang Ziling raised his eyebrows slightly, "Interesting, then why are you coveting this Fengmo Ancient Jade?"

"I'm just an ordinary mercenary, doing things for my employer." Ji looked at Zhang Ziling and said honestly, "And now all the forces in Japan are looking for the lost Fengmo ancient jade of the Eight Clan, and want to snatch that piece of jade. There are too many people!"

"What is the function of that ancient jade?" Zhang Ziling continued to ask. So far, Zhang Ziling has not found anything except that there is a restriction hidden in the ancient jade.

"I don't know about this. I'm just a small mercenary. Maybe the bigwigs of those forces will know a little bit about this Fengmo Ancient Jade." Ji continued.

"Who do you work for?"

Since Ji is neither the Tokugawa family nor the Sheqi Bajia, then this third-party force was able to discover that Fengmo Ancient Jade was in their own hands before the two major forces, which means that this third-party force is definitely not simple.

"Little brother~" Ji suddenly became coquettish, looking at Zhang Ziling and praying, "The mercenaries also have professional ethics, can you..."

Whoosh!

The black dagger suspended in the air slammed into Ji's throat!

"Stop, stop! I said! I said!" Seeing that Zhang Ziling had no intention of showing mercy, Ji finally gave up the last struggle and shouted.

At this time, the tip of the black dagger was only one centimeter away from Ji's throat...

Gollum!

Cold sweat slipped across Ji's forehead. After confirming that her head was still on her neck, she slowly opened her mouth and said, "Hi, the employer is... the Shadow Gate."
