The Legendary Man

Chapter 538 Load Their Weapons

Jonathan walked right past the five and went straight to Xiara. “Are you okay?” he asked while pulling her to her feet. Xiara retrieved a tiny box of pills from her pocket and popped a black-colored pill into her mouth.

Having recovered some of her strength after taking a few deep breaths, Xiara stared at Jonathan and asked with a conflicted look on her face, “What are you doing here?”

My friends whom I grew up with are trying to kill me, and the person who saves my life is the one I’m supposed to kill… Just how am I supposed to feel about this situation?

“Oh, I just like exercising early in the morning,” Jonathan replied while looking at the assassins he had frozen in place with his spiritual energy.

“I got a little confused when I overheard your conversation earlier. Are you really Xiara, who ranks ninth on the Heaven List?”

“I am.” Xiara picked up her dagger and stared at Agent 99 and the others as she continued, “And so are they. This is a secret of Heaven List. ‘Xiara’ is actually the codename of an organization.”

It was then Jonathan finally understood everything.

So, this is why Xiara told me she had killed over hundreds of targets despite only starting her career as an assassin three years ago. Those targets were no ordinary people, either. Each and every one of them held high positions in society. Some of them were so powerful that they could even affect the countries in the west!

To assassinate people like that would require tons of preparation beforehand, perfect execution of the plan, and tons of luck. Xiara killed at least two per month and an average of thirty per year. There’s no way she’d have the time to set up all those assassinations by herself. However, it would all make sense if Xiara is actually an organization instead of an individual. “So, should I call you ‘Xiara’ or ‘Agent 65’?”

“My name is Yasmin Zielinski,” Yasmin replied as she shoved the dagger into Agent 99’s heart.

“Are you planning on killing them all? We might be able to get some useful information out of them if we keep them alive,” Jonathan said with a frown.
