Chapter 32: 32. Anna
Kai is now on his way to visit Anna, an outer sect disciple. She was the target that Kai found as a sacrifice, and her situation made her the perfect target. He did not have an ounce of remorse about using her; he had already decided to accept his hidden personality.
He decided to do anything to achieve his goal and fulfill his desire.
"Junior sister Anna, senior brother Kai is here for a visit," Kai said from outside the room.
"Senior brother Kai, what brings you here to my humble abode?" Anna asked doubtfully.
She knows there is no senior in the outer sect with the name of Kai, so she guessed it was a person from the inner sect and acted more politely.
"I want to discuss something important, so can we go inside and talk," Kai replied. He did not mention the details outside to avoid any prying eyes.
"Okay, senior brother, you can come inside my room to discuss," Anna looked Kai for a moment and invited him.
She prepared a chair for Kai inside the room, and both of them sat in a comfortable position for communication.
"Junior sister, how about we only tell the truth during our conversation?" Kai began the conversation with smile.
"Okay, senior brother, I will only tell the truth." Anna also complied with the request.
"Junior sister, how about you kidnap the Holy Son instead of just killing him?" Kai said it abruptly.
"W-what are you saying, senior brother? I don't know what you are talking about," Anna looked at Kai in surprise, her voice trembled in panic.
He did not reply to her question; instead, he just stared at her with a confident smile on his face. Anna became irritated by the smile and slowly calmed down to analyze the situation.
"Senior brother, it seems you mistook me for someone else," Anna said in a calm tone, and her previous panicked expression seemed like a facade.
"You don't need to act in front of me. I know your purpose and the reason. I am also not the enemy; after my plan is done with him, I will hand over the holy son to you. You can do anything you want with him.
We can use each other for our benefit." Kai replied with the same confident smile.
Anna didn't say anything for moment, but after some time, she accepted her fate "Okay, senior brother, I lose, but you need to show enough value for our cooperation to work together."
She already knows that her identity has been found, and she decided to cooperate with Kai to avoid conflict. She knew she wasn't capable of defeating him in the battle, and the possibility of killing him was mainly zero.
So she only thought about the advantages of cooperation instead of the disadvantages. But she needs to verify his qualifications to ensure her safety.
"You don't have enough qualifications to ask such a question. I am only here for mutual benefit, not for cooperation. You just need to follow my order, and things will come into place." Kai said it in an emotionless tone.
His behavior changed completely, and his gentle smile also disappeared, replaced by a lack of expression.
Anna became nervous after hearing Kai's voice. The behavior change was so sudden, and she was unprepared; her plan for cooperation was also shattered.
"Senior brother, what are you saying? We can cooperate; it will build trust between us."
"I already said it; you don't have the qualifications to cooperate with me. You don't even know how to hide your information; I found all your information in a single week; if it were someone else, you would be dead now."
"Senior brother, how much did you know about me?" Anna asked in a panic.
"Anna, your real identity is the youngest daughter of the Caster family. Yang Wudi, who once saw your elder sister's beauty, wants to obtain her, but your family has resisted since your parents do not want to ruin their daughter by handing her over to him.
The final result is that your family got destroyed, and you managed to escape at the cost of your father's life. Then, you came in the hope of revenge by using a disguise." Kai said all of this in a calm tone.
"How did you know so much about me?" Anna exclaimed in disbelief.
"It is not that I am smart, but you are a fool. You did not even try to confirm once when I said you were here for revenge. You just accepted it completely without even resisting."
"It is not like that; I saw the confident expression on your face and guessed from it. I'm very good at reading people's expressions from a young age."
"How about the people who are good at faking their expression?"
Anna wasn't able to reply to the question, and she realized the situation was leading to this because of her panic.
"You are a fool, Anna. That won't change, no matter how much you argue. I come straight to the point; you just need to act according to plan, and you will get your revenge."
Anna wanted to argue with him, but before she could say anything, an overwhelming aura made her breathless.
"I'm not here to discuss this with you. It is an order, and you need to follow it, or else I will dispose of you right now. Don't think I'm lying about your death." Kai and his killing intent also surrounded her.
Anna became afraid as soon as she sensed the killing intent; swearing started to appear in her head, and her breathing also became heavy.
Kai said these words and left the place. He found the information about Anna in the shadows. It is an assassination organization that has been operating in the Enlightenment world for a few generations.
Even though they have existed in the world for a few generations and there is no emperor on their side, no emperor-tier family or sect will offend them. Their strength is beyond imagination, and their stance is also neutral, as they are not interested in the power struggles of the world.
Both the leader and vice leader of the organization are unknown, but there are seven captains, each representing a sin. The Sin captains protect the organization and also maintain order. Their strength is at the supreme level, and even in the supreme realm, it is at the top level.
Because of the mysterious leader, no one is willing to offend them. The strength of the leader is unknown, but since he can keep seven supreme realm experts in his organization, his strength must be at the top of the world.
The shadow organization will do anything for the right price. Kai had obtained information about Anna from them using money. The caster family is just a small family with a semi-Saint-Realm cultivator at its peak, so the information did not cost a lot of money.
He obtained a lot of beast material from his trip to the demon forest, and by selling the valuable things, he obtained a lot of spirit stones. By using the spirit stones from hunting and using the spirit stones that Alex gave him, Kai had covered up the cost.
Anna's POV
'Who is this guy? How did he find so much about me?' thought Anna. She did not know about the existence of shadows. Kai knew about their existence from the information he stole from the scripture pavilion.
After contemplating for a bit, her expression completely changed from fear to a proud smile.
'It seems my acting skill is top-notch, but I did not expect my information to be leaked. I should act carefully from now on and use that guy as a shield,' thought Anna.
She only acted in that situation in front of Kai; she planned to only use him to achieve her revenge. She saw the potential in Kai to make her plan succeed. So, she decided to act and deceive him so that she could use his idea.
'After my revenge, I should get rid of him to avoid future troubles from him,' Her expression contains pure madness.
