Oh no! I, the weakling, have become the villain!

Chapter 256 Assassination Failure

“Hey Xu Yao,” Wu Jie said, looking at Xu Yao with a smug expression, “you think you’re really capable now?”

"Let me put it this way: you brought this on yourself this time, and I don't want to talk about anything else right now."

"But this is what I need to know now. Go back to the Bai family and see for yourselves. Don't say I didn't tell you."

"When we get back, don't even mention being so scared you'll wet your pants," Wu Jie said with a chuckle.

Upon hearing Wu Jie's words, Bai Yuezhan angrily retorted, "What do you mean? Have you done something wrong?"

At this moment, Wu Jie smiled and said, "What I did is not important, but now I can tell you directly."

"You guys should go back to the Bai family and take a look. Hmph, Xu Yao, do you think you're so great?"

Upon hearing Wu Jie's words, Xu Yao basically knew that something had happened to the Bai family. Now that things were like this, he naturally had to go and see what was wrong with the Bai family.

At this moment, Xu Yao said to Wu Jie, "You'll know when we get back. We won't tell you anything now."

"Let's go, Bai Yuezhan, let's go back first. I suspect something might have happened to the Bai family," Xu Yao said.

Bai Yuezhan nodded, and the two of them hurriedly returned to the Bai family.

When the two returned, Bai Yuezhan looked around the Bai family and saw that nothing had happened.

With no one from the Bai family saying anything and no one injured, Bai Yuezhan finally felt a little relieved.

That's a relief.

At this moment, Xu Yao said to the people from the Assassin's Guild, "This time, we owe you a lot. If it weren't for you..."

“Then I probably wouldn’t have been able to do anything about it. But now that the girls have helped us, this matter is finally resolved,” Xu Yao said.

Upon seeing Xu Yao speak like this, Bai Yuezhan, who was standing to the side, then said, "Did you call the people from the Assassin's Guild?"

"Yes, it was me. I knew Wu Jie wouldn't be so kind this time; there must be something going on."

"I was worried, which is why I told the people from the Assassin's Guild in advance. After we left, they saw people from other sects coming."

"Then let's take action. There's no need to discuss anything else. That's just how things are right now."

"As for everything else, there are no problems at all," Xu Yao said cheerfully.

Upon hearing Xu Yao's words, Bai Yuezhan replied, "Thank you, Xu Yao. This time, it wasn't because of your words."

"I really don't know what to do. That's the situation right now. Anyway, let's not talk about anything else."

“But my Bai family owes you, Xu Yao, a debt of gratitude,” Bai Yuezhan said.

Seeing Bai Yuezhan like this, Xu Yao smiled and said, "It's not that serious. I just dealt with this casually."

"In short, let's not talk about anything else. We all know that this is how things are this time."

"As for other things, those are not things we need to do. Anyway, we need to be more careful this time."

"The Bai family is still not out of danger," Xu Yao said.

Bai Yuezhan nodded in agreement with Xu Yao's words, since the Bai family was indeed still in danger.

In short, putting everything else aside, the time to act is right now, should any other solutions come up.

Needless to say, that's how things are now. As for other things, that's not something Xu Yao needs to consider.

When Wu Jie saw the people who had returned from the failed assassination attempt at his own home, he finally asked, "How did things go?"

"Is the Bai family now littered with corpses?"

Then someone said to Wu Jie, "No, when we made our move, we brought out the assassins from the roadside."

"This has completely disrupted our plans. We are no match for them and have no choice but to retreat."

Upon hearing his subordinate's words, Wu Jie nearly fainted, mainly because he had lost an arm.

I originally wanted to get revenge, but now look what's happened, this whole mess has come up.

What do you think we should do about this situation? This isn't something other people can say, but it's at least up to Wu Jie.

This is so bad it makes me want to pinch myself in the philtrum, you can imagine what the others are like.

Thinking of this, Wu Jie angrily asked, "What's going on with this Assassin's Guild? Why has it become the Bai family's backer?"

"To do these things at such a critical moment is truly incomprehensible and even unacceptable."

"If this were someone else, it wouldn't be something we'd need to do, but that's the crux of the matter."

"In short, I won't say anything else, but at least we need to know for ourselves now if the Assassin's Guild really is involved."

"That's not a good situation for any of us, that's just how things are right now."

"In short, we need to be careful. If things don't go well, then the Wu family needs to be extra cautious."

At this moment, someone stepped forward and said to Wu Jie, "Why don't we go to the news station and get some information first?"

"Check the intelligence network for any information regarding the relationship between the Bai family, Xu Yao, and the Assassin's Guild."

"If we could figure out what the relationship between them is, that would be the best, after all, the Assassin's Guild is also a very important thing."

"To put it bluntly, if someone else is willing to pay, we are willing to pay too."

Upon hearing what his subordinates said, Wu Jie immediately realized what they meant.

This is something I hadn't expected before, but now it's actually happened. This is exactly how things are.

In short, Wu Jie is determined to get revenge. This time, the Assassin's Guild ambushed him and ruined his plans.

Wu Jie was determined to get revenge, so naturally he needed to go to the information station to find information.

Upon arriving at the information station, Wu Jie was sitting in a small, hidden compartment.

This hidden compartment was prepared by the people at the information station specifically for those who wanted to buy information.

According to the people at the information station, that's how it is: don't sell the buyer's information, and don't do anything else.

In short, all of this was to keep the buyer's information confidential.

At this moment, Wu Jie was also sitting in the hidden compartment, and then said calmly, "The relationship between the Assassin's Guild, the Bai family, and Xu Yao."
