Shayou and Cornelia looked at the girls who were crying and felt sorry for them. Their lives were ruined.
When they were almost done crying, the young ladies turned around in unison and knelt down towards Bai Lan. They said,"Thank you! Thank you!"
Bai Lan waved her hand and said," There's no need to be so polite. Since you've already taken your revenge, leave this place as soon as possible. It's not good to stay here for long. You'll be discovered very soon."”
"Master Prynne, where do you think we can go? Go home? If we had a home, would we still come to Hillford? Even if there is, do you think anyone will want us with our dirty bodies? Even if we do, how do you think we should answer when our husbands ask us why we are not pure after we get married? If we answer truthfully, what do you think they will think of us?”
The young girl's questions made Bai Lan speechless. This didn't happen to him. He wasn't a girl, so he couldn't understand a girl's thoughts.
However, he did not think that they had no hope. There were still many good men in this world who would not despise their dirty bodies. Instead, they would love them more and fill the pain in their hearts.
Thinking of this, Prynne advised," You guys should go home. Even if you don't go home, don't stay in the Imperial City. There are still many good men in this world. I believe you will meet them."”
"A good man? Perhaps there really is. Then, Master Prynne, if it were you, would you despise us?”
"I won't!" Prynne replied without hesitation. He knew very well that he could not hesitate at this moment. If he showed any hesitation, these girls would lose hope in their future lives.
Hearing Prynne's unhesitating answer, the young ladies 'lifeless eyes gradually revealed signs of life.
"Really? Master Prynne, you really don't mind us?”
"It's true! All of you, get up. Before this place is discovered, leave the capital overnight and don't come back.”
When the girls heard this, they stood up one by one and left the basement naked. When the last girl left, she suddenly turned around and said,"I'm not as gullible as them. I know that men like a clean and innocent young girl's body, but I'm also willing to listen to your lies. Goodbye, Master Prynne.”
Prynne rubbed her nose awkwardly. She did not expect her lie to be seen through by a young girl.
Indeed, just as the young girl had said, which man would not like a clean and innocent girl? Prynne was no exception.
However, he did not want these girls to give up their lives, so he made up a white lie. He knew very well that if he did not give them a little hope, they would definitely commit suicide here.
Prynne did not want to see these young people die, so she made up a lie to deceive them so that they would have the motivation to live on.
After all the girls left, Cornelia walked up to Prynne and asked quietly,"Instructor, if they choose to stay by your side, will you agree?”
"Yes!"
"What if they ask you to marry them? Do you know how to do it?" Cornelia asked faintly, full of jealousy.
"Impossible!" Prynne rolled her eyes in annoyance.
"Instructor, are you just going to leave me in the lurch? Wasn't he afraid that they would lose confidence in life after hearing it?”
"If that's the case, then there's nothing we can do. Perhaps this is their fate.”
“……”
Hearing Prynne's answer, a smile flashed across Cornelia's face, but it was caught by Shayou. She looked at Cornelia in surprise.
As a girl, she knew what girls were thinking. Cornelia obviously liked Prynne. How could Shayou not be surprised?
However, at the mention of Prynne, Sha You also recalled that the person in charge seemed to have called Prynne "Night Death". What was going on?
"Mr. Prynne, why did that person call you 'Night Reaper' just now? Also, he said that you were once one of the strongest in the empire. What's going on?”
Sha You had too many questions in her heart, so many that she couldn't help but want to understand them. Because if she didn't get an answer, it would make her very frustrated.
"That's because I was once one of the Empire's powerhouses, that's why he called me that. Furthermore, I'm an assassin, that's why he called me by another title.”
" Assassins?!" Sha You said in surprise," Aren't you students of the Royal Fist Temple?”
"That was a lie. If we told you directly that we were killers, do you think you would believe us? Also, since we are assassins, we naturally have to hide our identities. If we tell everyone we meet that we are assassins, do you think we can still live until now?”
Prynne found it funny. She was amused by Sha You's question.
"I see!" Sha You was enlightened and expressed her understanding. However, another question came." Then why did you tell me your identity?”
Hearing Sha You's question, Prynne also knew that it was a critical moment. Her expression turned serious as she said,"Shayou, I told you our identities to invite you to join us. Are you willing?”
"Why? My strength isn't much, so what can I help you with? Also, what do I need to do after I join you? You should at least tell me this so that I can make a decision.”
"Naturally." Prynne said," The organization I'm in is called Tian Fa. It was established by me. The target is those corrupt officials and corrupt nobles. You know about the Revolutionary Army, right? They want to overthrow the empire. We are currently cooperating with them. They are fighting against the empire militarily, and we are responsible for assassinating those vermin of the empire. The new country doesn't need these people.”
"So, you are assassins of justice?”Shayou's eyes lit up, and Prynne and Cornelia smiled bitterly." Shayou, remember this. No matter if we kill good or bad people, we are still killing people. There is no difference between good and bad people, so don't treat us as good people."”
"I know!" Sha You nodded, indicating that she understood. She then smiled and said," I agree to join you. Please take care of me!"”
Shayou, who had witnessed the dark scene in the Imperial Capital, decided to join Prynne's organization and contribute to the new country. This was also a way to save her village. No matter how she looked at it, she had no reason to refuse.
