Su Yang reached out and touched the necks of the men, finding their bodies to be ice cold.
Meaning, they were already dead?
"Boss, what's going on?"
"I don't know either. It's likely they either exhausted their stamina or their drug effects wore off."
Su Yang didn't understand how assassins were trained.
No one knew what kind of energy assassins needed to maintain their combat ability.
"This was just the vanguard. Just how strong is the Shangguan family?"
Yuan Kui was also shocked. He had thought the subordinates of family powers would be mediocre at best, but he hadn't expected them to be so ferocious.
"Don't worry about that. Let's leave the hotel first. We don't know if Shangguan Zhongtang has sent more people."
Su Yang waved his hand and, with the six of them, hurried away.
As soon as they left, from a hidden corner, someone was watching the direction they had gone.
"Patriarch, all members of the vanguard have been wiped out. Should we continue the pursuit?"
"No need! They'll be in the capital tomorrow anyway. It's not too late to make a move then!"
"Yes. Your subordinate understands!"
...
Su Yang and the others drove, changing directions several times, and finally stopped at a small inn.
"Hello, I need six rooms."
"I'm sorry, we only have four rooms left."
"Four? Single or double rooms?"
"Single, with a large bed!"
Su Yang frowned. It was late at night, and the inns outside would likely be fully booked.
If they left now, they might still be followed.
Yuan Kui raised his hand, "Boss, I'll take a room by myself."
Yuan Kui was tall and burly. A large bed could only accommodate half of his body, and no one was willing to share a bed with him.
"Alright. You guys can sort yourselves out and get some rest tonight."
Sakada Sōgetsu was stunned. "Then what about me?"
"You'll be with the boss, of course. Do you want to share with us rough guys?"
Shen Qiu smirked mischievously, scaring Sakada Sōgetsu into shaking her head vigorously.
"I don't want to!"
Su Yang casually picked up the key. "808, that's fine."
With that said, he went to find his room alone.
Sakada Sōgetsu gritted her teeth, hitched up her skirt, and chased after him.
The room was large, over sixty square meters.
All the daily necessities were provided, though they were a bit old.
Su Yang dropped his backpack, found a set of clothes, and went into the bathroom.
The sound of rushing water made Sakada Sōgetsu involuntarily glance over.
At first glance, the glass was still transparent, and she could clearly see Su Yang's strong physique, standing tall and unyielding.
"Hiss… so robust, the older sister must be very happy, right?"
Sakada Sōgetsu's cheeks flushed slightly. At this moment, she somewhat believed that her sister, Sakada Yano Sakura, had fallen for Su Yang.
It was no wonder that in the photos she saw today, her sister and Kawashima Nako were smiling so sweetly.
"What's wrong with me? I'm blushing at a Dragon Country man?"
Sakada Sōgetsu shook her head and reached into her suitcase to find clothes.
"Wait, this glass is transparent, so then I…"
Sakada Sōgetsu was troubled again. She was afraid of being exposed if she bathed, but she felt uncomfortable all over if she didn't, her sweat sticky and smelly.
"Forget it, I'll ask the front desk if there's anywhere else I can shower."
"What are you muttering to yourself about?"
Su Yang came out of the bathroom wrapped in a towel and heard Sakada Sōgetsu talking to herself on the bed.
"It's nothing, I'm going out for a bit."
Sakada Sōgetsu grabbed her clothes and left.
Su Yang dried his hair and lay on the bed playing with his phone.
Less than three minutes later.
Sakada ran back and started rummaging through her suitcase.
"Don't look!"
The more shy she became, the more interested Su Yang was.
At first glance, those two round pieces of clothing were at least a size D.
"Whoa, I can't believe you're so well-endowed. Just like your sister, did you grow up drinking milk?"
"Get lost! You're the one who grew up drinking milk!"
Sakada Sōgetsu hastily hid her clothes, turned around, and slammed the door shut as she left.
Seeing her leave, Su Yang's gaze was fixed on the suitcase.
He leaned down to take a closer look. Besides clothes, there was a cucumber-like device in the suitcase.
Su Yang pressed the switch, and the device vibrated and made a humming sound.
The sound wasn't loud, but the vibration was very strong.
"Damn, this woman acts all proper on the surface, but I didn't expect her to be like a normal woman inside and play with these things."
Just then, Sakada Sōgetsu returned.
As soon as she opened the door, she saw Su Yang playing with the small device.
Sakada Sōgetsu was both embarrassed and angry. "Why are you messing with other people's things?"
"Oh, I saw your suitcase was open, and I was going to help you close it. I didn't expect you to be carrying this little gadget."
"Hmph! I'm an assassin, but I'm also a woman. Isn't it normal to have some hobbies?"
Sakada Sōgetsu snatched the small device and locked the suitcase before entering the bathroom.
"By the way, don't peek, or I'll dig your eyes out."
Sakada Sōgetsu said fiercely, then closed the bathroom door.
She felt it wasn't secure enough, so she hung her dirty clothes on the glass.
"Damn, this woman is like she's guarding against a thief. Am I that scary?"
Su Yang played with his phone while glancing at the bathroom.
Mainly, the sound of running water made it impossible for him to focus on his phone.
He thought he wouldn't be able to see anything, but unexpectedly, Sakada Sōgetsu's clothes, which were hung on the bathroom glass, became heavy when they got wet and fell to the floor.
Sakada Sōgetsu herself had her back to Su Yang. She didn't realize she had been exposed at all.
"Holy crap! This woman is indeed Sakada Yano Sakura's sister. Her figure is no less than her sister's."
Just seeing her back and side, he could see the proud curves of her figure.
Su Yang couldn't help but get an erection. He quickly grabbed the bedsheet to cover himself.
In the bathroom, Sakada Sōgetsu was humming a tune, a song from Sangguo.
Her singing was clear and sweet, but Su Yang couldn't understand it.
...
More than ten minutes later.
Sakada Sōgetsu turned off the faucet and turned to get a towel.
"Ah… what's going on?"
She then realized that all her clothes, both clean and dirty, had fallen to the floor from the glass.
Moreover, she felt someone outside staring at her intently.
"Su Yang, you scoundrel, you were peeking!"
"Looking doesn't break the law, and you won't lose ten pounds!"
"You, you hooligan!"
Sakada Sōgetsu hurriedly grabbed a towel to cover herself, but there were no clothes to change into.
They were all wet!
"Su Yang, bring me some clothes."
"I won't. Didn't you just call me a hooligan?"
"Hurry up, I'll apologize to you later, okay?"
"Hmph! You know better now!"
Su Yang got up, opened the suitcase, and took out a set of clean clothes.
"Open the door, or how can I give them to you?"
"I'll open the door, but don't peek. Close your eyes first!"
"Why are you shy? I've already seen it all. Hurry up."
Sakada Sōgetsu gritted her teeth in anger and opened a crack in the door, reaching out to take the clothes.
She changed in a few moments and walked out with her head down.
For some reason, Sakada Sōgetsu's mind was filled with the image of Su Yang showering, lingering and floating around.
"Right, didn't you say yesterday that you'd let me video call with my sister today?"
