Chapter 798: Persuasion
Seeing Hu Baimei speak of murder with such excitement and thrill, Fang Bai and Linghu Qianjiao couldn’t help but exchange looks with a silent, bitter smile.Linghu Qianjiao wished Fang Bai would discipline her sister for her, to sway her from her wicked ways back onto the right path, but with her sister present, she found it difficult to speak directly and could only convey her plea through her eyes desperately looking at Fang Bai.
Fang Bai seemed to guess Linghu Qianjiao’s thoughts, so he hardened his face and said to Hu Baimei, "If you’re killing utterly reprehensible people, that’s a merit, but if you slay the innocent as well, that is sin. You murder for money, likely without distinguishing whether your targets are good or evil, right or wrong, don’t you?"
He saw a hint of disdain in Hu Baimei’s expression, clearly unimpressed by his words, and with a cold snort, he continued, "Whether you believe in karma or not, this way of killing people will one day lead to your own death. Like today, if your sister and I hadn’t arrived in time, you know what would have become of you better than anyone. Listen to your sister, stop this!"
Hu Baimei pouted and retorted, "That’s easy for you to say! If I stop, what about the sisters under me? Who will feed them?"
Linghu Qianjiao chipped in, "We ’Wrathful Beauties’ also run some businesses. If you quit your life of murder, I can hand those enterprises over to you to manage!"
Hu Baimei shook her head, "No, I don’t have a business mind, I can’t do that! Besides, I enjoy a free and unrestricted life. If you ask me to sit in an office every day or do business talks, I’ll go crazy!"
Linghu Qianjiao sighed, "Not everyone is born knowing these things, you can slowly learn and adapt!"
Hu Baimei waved her hand dismissively, "Enough, don’t try to persuade me! Anyway, I’m not going to take over your businesses!"
Linghu Qianjiao saw that her sister was still not heeding her advice and felt great dismay.
As the three of them spoke, they had walked quite a distance from Huo Niao’s villa.
Fang Bai said, "I happen to have a job offer that suits you and your sisters well. This job won’t pay less than what you’re earning from killing, and it will grant you ample freedom. You can ensure the continuation of your cultivation, and you’ll find the thrill of outsmarting, outplaying, and outfighting others you seek..."
Hu Baimei’s eyes lit up, "What job? Let me hear it!"
Fang Bai said with a smile, "Join the ’Dragon Guard’ and become one of us!"
Hu Baimei was taken aback and frowned, "The ’Dragon Guard’ of Huaxia?"
Fang Bai nodded, "Yes! I am now an instructor for the ’Dragon Guard.’ If you and your sisters are willing to join, I can vouch for you. Once you become a member, your past crimes can be wiped clean! How about it, will you consider it?"
Hu Baimei had heard of the famous "Dragon Guard" of Huaxia, aware that its members were Martial Artists each with formidable strength.o two years, or three to five years, was already purposely extended.
"Is... is what you’re saying true?"
Linghu Baimei’s voice quivered slightly, her heart in turmoil.
In the eyes of her master, reaching the Heaven Level realm in this lifetime was already an incredible feat, but according to Fang Bai, it would take at most three to five years to advance, which seemed unbelievable.
If she hadn’t just witnessed Fang Bai easily defeating Isabella and the other two, Linghu Baimei would have thought Fang Bai was bragging.
Linghu Qianjiao was also somewhat stunned.
Like her sister, Linghu Baimei, she had reached Earth Level Perfection around the same time but was limited by the realm and saw no hope of breaking through any time soon. Fang Bai’s words stirred her as well.
"If it isn’t true, you can leave the ’Dragon Guard’ later and continue your life as an assassin. I assure you, I will not make things difficult for you!"
Fang Bai said confidently.
Linghu Baimei took a deep breath and said seriously, "Regarding joining the ’Dragon Guard’, I would like to go back and consult with my master. If the master agrees, I will come to find you."
Linghu Qianjiao said, "Sister, let me accompany you back! Speaking of which, I haven’t seen our master for a long time. I wonder how she is doing now!"
Linghu Baimei obviously still harbored some grudges against her sister and gave no response to her suggestion.
Fang Bai was also curious about the sisters’ master, thinking that someone who could train such impressive Earth Level Perfection martial artists must surely be a Heaven Level expert.
