Matthew then dragged the assassin into the house. Subsequently, the crown prince entered with Melvin behind
him.
"Who ordered you to kill me?"
Matthew interrogated in a serious tone. The assassin stayed silent with a distant expression.
Despite his ribs having been broken by Matthew earlier, the assassin showed no signs of being in pain and only
showed an indifferent expression.
Matthew's expression grew cold as well, for he was already planning to torture the information out of the
assassin.
However, Melvin cover and interjected, "There is no need for further questions. These people are already
akin to a killing machine. They wouldn't have the knowledge of who their clients are!" "Why not?"
Matthew was taken aback.

"These assassins belong to Cathay's largest assassin group called the Assassins Alliance. They were picked up by
the alliance from a very young age and would undergo ten years of hard training to be professional assassins on
an island in the Pacific Ocean. Treating them as you would a human is a waste of tsince these beings no
longer have any human thoughts in them. The only thing left in them is just their next targets! The Assassins
Alliance would notify them of their targets and nothing else. This is why | said there is no need for further
questions. These people know next to nothing, not even who they were before!"
Matthew widened his eyes in shock, as he never expected there would exist such assassins.
Beside them, the crown prince wore the sexpression of shock.
"The Assassins Alliance? I've heard my uncle mention that nbefore. They're not only the largest group of
assassins in Cathay, but also one of the top three assassin groups in the whole world. However, I've also heard
that hiring an assassin from the alliance costs very much. Just who in the world employed them?"
Taking a glance at Matthew, Melvin gave his opinion.
"If my prediction is not off, | would say the client is the Nolans""""
"Why do you think so?" Matthew questioned.
Melvin shrugged before replying, "You've caused Gilbert Nolan sbig losses back at Eastcliff. Since Gilbert
Nolan has always been a vengeful man, it was impossible for him to take it lying still. Furthermore, seeing that it
would not be convenient for him to show his face after returning to Bainbridge, the only option for that man is to
employ assassins to carry out his deed. Considering that the assassins by the Six Southern States would not go
unnoticed by the crown prince, Gilbert might have thought that it was best to hire assassins from the Assassins
Alliance."
All the pieces fit in Matthew's mind as he frowned at the revelation.
If what Melvin said was true, Matthew would be facing a lot of trouble as he was now a target for the Assassins
Alliance.
Nevertheless, he tried torturing the assassins with his silver needles for information to corroborate the theory
but, just as Melvin said, could gain no new information.
On the contrary, the assassins bit the poison pills hidden in the roots of their teeth and took their own lives.
This action of theirs proved that they were trained by the Assassins Alliance. They will be difficult to deal with.
Matthew thought.
"Melvin, how did you know these people were from the Assassins Alliance?" asked the crown prince after the
three of them had left the house.
"The poison they used is exclusive to the Assassins Alliance. They are one of a kind" Melvin replied.
Matthew was impressed further since he was still puzzled on the matter before.

Due to Matthew inheriting the jade pendant, it meant that he knew every venomous creature there was in the
world. Yet, even he was stumped on the identity of the poison employed by the assassin the night before.
Although he was considered to be immune to all poison as he was carrying the jade pendant given to him by
Jinny, he was almost had by that poison.
The important takeaway from the prior night was that even Matthew couldn't cure the poison by way of medicine
and could only expel the poison from Lucy's body by using his silver needles in conjunction with his inner energy.
Seems like the alliance's unique poison isn't that simple to deal with.
"Then how did you figure out that they were hiding here?" the crown prince continued to ask.
Revealing his yellow teeth as he smiled, Melvin answered, "That's a dumb question! The only hideout they have
here in Eastshire is this one.If not here, then where else will they be?"
Melvin's answer left the crown prince speechless for a while.
Matthew glanced at Melvin before asking, "Then, how did you know the location of the Assassins Alliance's
hideout?"
Melvin smiled.
"Do you really think that I'm swindling people every day in the market? Lettell you this: nothing escapes me
should I require information about the things in the Six Southern States!"
