Chapter 129: The Tenacious Little Assassin

Following the main group, we soon saw the source of the voice.

Was it to be expected? It was that loli who had been instantly killed when she tried to assassinate Jiangu earlier. She didn’t even reach a meter in height—she had to hold her dagger above her head just to stab Jiangu in the butt, and she needed a big leap to land a backstab…

At this moment, we caught up with them because they seemed to be having a small trouble that slowed their progress.

“Don’t talk big at a time like this! First, get yourself out! One, two, heave—one, two, heave—”

Not far ahead, a man was pulling the loli out of the snow like a carrot, while the loli was waving her arms and shouting energetically, “How could a mere snowfield possibly stop me, the world’s number one beautiful girl assassin! Hmph… Brother, hurry up and pull me out! Jiangu’s death is near!”

“Yes, yes… my little ancestor… Can anyone over there help? I’m a priest; my strength is too low to pull her out…” The man in the priest robe waved at us helplessly.

It was a small favor, and since they might also be enemies of Sword Sweeping the World, we helped pull the little loli out.

“Alright, alright! Finally out! Thank you both so much!” The man bowed repeatedly in gratitude, then glared at the loli angrily. “Can’t you just let me carry you? The snow ahead is getting thicker, and there are many deep pits hidden under the snow. You’ll fall in every two steps—there’s no way you’ll make it to the destination!”

“No! This is my first chance to run around freely… Absolutely not!” The loli pouted, snorted, turned her head stubbornly, and continued forward. “Nothing can stop me, the world’s number one beautiful girl assassin! This time, I will definitely kill Jiangu—gurgle—”

Before she finished speaking, the loli disappeared with a “gurgle,” leaving only a single golden antenna hair standing on the snow, swaying in the wind…

“His name is Jiangu, not Jian… gurgle—ah!” The man slumped in defeat.

Helpless, we grabbed the antenna hair and pulled her out like a carrot again.

After coming out, the little loli’s eyes were red. She refused to believe it, broke free from her brother’s grip, and charged forward again. This time, she didn’t fall in immediately: “No one can stop me from killing Jiangu! Not even heaven!”

We followed behind. As we walked, the little loli suddenly put her hands on her hips and looked up at the blizzard-filled sky. “I want this sky to no longer block my sight! I want this ground to no longer bury my heart! I want all beings to understand my will! I want this Jiangu to vanish like smoke…”

Her “bu” vanished again…

Golden antenna hair fluttering in the wind…

A few minutes later, the little loli was huddled on my back, sobbing. “Brother, you’re useless! You keep saying you’ll carry me, but you can’t even manage it! Not even as good as this priest sister! Are you even a man?”

The man shrugged helplessly. “…This priest sister of yours must have gone full Strength stat.”

In any case, we all lagged behind the main group.

The man scratched his head, smiling sheepishly and apologetically. “Sorry for the trouble. My sister’s name is…”

Suddenly, the little loli poked her head out from behind my back. “I am the world’s number one beautiful girl assassin! Assassins don’t need names!”

Lai Fu spread his hands helplessly.

“Yaya, I’ll carry her.”

I nodded, and Yingning took the little loli from me and put her on her back—I had carried her earlier because she insisted, wanting to prove that her brother was the only weakling among priests.

Yingning had better stamina, higher strength, and since she was a player, it was more appropriate for her to carry the loli.

“Are you guys here to leech boss experience too?” Lai Fu asked.

“Since we’ve met, fate brings us together. Want to team up?” Lai Fu continued.

“Sure.”

Yingning and I hid our names and levels, remaining in the party. Qingyu, Fairy Sister, and Huo Jinjin also hid their names and, after being told not to talk, agreed to Lai Fu and the little loli’s party requests.

[Lai Fu has joined the party.]

[The World’s Number One Beautiful Girl Assassin has joined the party.]

I stared at the second join prompt, stunned—so this loli’s name really was “The World’s Number One Beautiful Girl Assassin”!

After realizing, I felt the world was so beautiful—thank the heavens! Finally, I found someone with an even more embarrassing name than mine!

Yingning, carrying the little loli, also struggled to suppress a laugh.

“By the way, what should we call this little sister?” Yingning asked.

“Assassins have no names! You can call me One, because I’m number one!” the little loli squeaked loudly.

“Number one who has been instantly killed by Jiangu countless times…” Lai Fu mercilessly teased. “Just call her Qiūqiū.”

We noted the name. Yingning continued as if casually, “Jiangu? The guild leader of Sword Sweeping the World? Why does Qiūqiū always want to kill him?”

“Because he killed Ahua!” The little loli’s childish voice was full of anger. “I must avenge Ahua! Jiangu and I are irreconcilable!”

“Ahua?”

“It was the pet cat demon she had in a previous game…” Lai Fu smiled bitterly and shook his head. “In a previous game, Sword Sweeping the World monopolized the leveling area, killed Qiūqiū and her Ahua, and from then on, Qiūqiū has been fixated on killing Jiangu.”

She kept screaming about killing Jiangu…

“Because of this, she’s chased Jiangu through several games. Wherever Sword Sweeping the World goes, she follows, vowing to kill Jiangu or die trying… Up to today, she has attempted to assassinate Jiangu 1,658 times…”

1,658 times… What a persistent loli!

“Did she ever succeed?” Yingning asked curiously.

“Not yet…”

“Who says!” The little loli twisted restlessly. “The 1,659th time will succeed!”

“Yes, yes…” Lai Fu despaired, resting his forehead in his hand.

I suddenly felt very sorry for Lai Fu, who had to be both brother and babysitter…

“Anyway, no matter how I try to persuade her, she won’t listen. She’s dead set on killing Jiangu at least once… But as the leader of a super guild and the pillar of the entire guild, he naturally won’t let Qiūqiū kill him willingly…”

Indeed, a guild leader is not just an administrator and decision-maker; more importantly, he is the spiritual pillar and faith of the entire guild!

In large guilds, most of the time, the guild leader may not be the smartest or the most skilled in management, but he must be the strongest—an undefeated legend.

Of course, someone who can become an undefeated legend won’t be lacking in intelligence or management skills.

Ahead, the outline of a massive building appeared—that should be the temple, our destination.

From far away, a dull thud came from the direction of the temple.

The sound could reach us through the icy snowfield, meaning the battle inside the temple had already begun!
