The ink-black eyes of Bai Li Hongzhuang filled with a serious and vigilant light as she keenly sensed a murderous intent.
"Master, we're being targeted!" Little Black's face showed a solemn expression. Previously, their master had always been with the students of Canglan Academy, but now that they were on their own, these people appeared.
It seemed that these people had been following them for quite some time.
"There are three of them, all at the Crimson Realm cultivation level. We can't determine their exact strength," analyzed Little White, his voice carrying a hint of gravity.
The master's strength was at the second stage of the Crimson Realm, which was already remarkable considering her age. However, facing these opponents still put considerable pressure on her.
Unless it joined forces with Little Black, but in this crowded place, their actions would attract too much attention, exposing them completely.
"What about me?" the white lion protested. Little Black and Little White had dared to ignore its existence.
Little Black and Little White were momentarily stunned, almost forgetting that the white lion had just recently broken through and reached the fifth stage of the Crimson Realm. It was a great help.
"Now that they've come, no need to hide and sneak around. Come out!" Bai Li Hongzhuang spoke up.
By this time, it was already late, and the streets were almost empty, with only a few people still preparing to go home.
It was truly a good timing for them to choose this dark night with a strong wind for their murderous intentions.
With Bai Li Hongzhuang's words, a man and two women appeared in front of her.
All three of them were dressed in black robes, their faces covered with veils, making it impossible to see their appearance.
"You have a keen perception," said one of the women on the left. "But tonight, you won't survive!"
A chilly glint flashed in Bai Li Hongzhuang's deep phoenix eyes, her expression calm and fearless, without a hint of panic.
"Who sent you? Han Xilin?" she asked.
So far, only two people were capable of sending Crimson Realm cultivators to deal with her—Han Xilin and Ji Daier.
Her conflict with Ji Daier had always been significant. Even though she had later helped Ji Daier detoxify, with Ji Daier's petty character, she probably wouldn't simply let go of their previous grievances.
As for Han Xilin, she might appear noble on the surface, but Bai Li Hongzhuang was certain that Han Xilin must be a ruthless and cunning individual.
It was normal for her to use any means necessary to achieve her goals.
"That's none of your concern," the man in the middle said coldly.
Bai Li Hongzhuang arched her eyebrows. "Since you've come to take my life, you should at least let me know who is trying to kill me."
"We, Shitian Tower, are only responsible for killing, not for anything else!"
The man's voice was low, and a murderous intent flashed in his eyes. With just a glance, the two women beside him immediately understood, rushing directly towards Bai Li Hongzhuang.
Shitian Tower?
This was the first time Bai Li Hongzhuang had heard this name. Judging from their appearance, it seemed to be an assassin organization?
To think they would send assassins from an assassin organization to deal with her. This was very much in line with Han Xilin's style.
Emperor Beichen had already returned to the Tian Gang Sect, so Han Xilin couldn't let her own people take action. But if she used an assassin organization, she could easily distance herself from any involvement.
As for Ji Daier, with her impulsive nature, if she wanted to deal with Bai Li Hongzhuang, she would surely have her own trusted subordinates do it.
Sending an assassin organization?
Bai Li Hongzhuang wasn't that clever yet.
