章 40: Separation

After another 20 minutes or so, with Yuan Zhenyi leading the way, everyone managed to creep behind a hill. The aid of the moonlight allowed them to observe the fight in good visibility.

As they witnessed the fight, Mo Wuji realised how ridiculous his intention to assassinate the obese salesman in the dark alone was. Even though there were already seven to eight casualties below, the obese salesman did have one very powerful guard. He was currently fighting against two others, out of whom, one was Jia Jing.

Jia Jing came with two others at first, however, one of them had already been killed.

"I was reckless. If I had come alone, I would never have succeeded in assassinating him," Mo Wuji sighed.

Yuan Zhenyi responded, "You can't be blamed for this. This salesman ain't easy to deal with. Normal salesmen would not hire such powerful guards for themselves."
