Chapter 220 Feiying's Commission

While Izunai was worried about her brother's overly bad interpersonal relationships, Ling rushed to the black market trading point where Feiying was as quickly as possible without affecting his own condition, and was warmly welcomed by the people in the brothel after reporting Feiying's name.

Just smelling the tempting scent of perfumed powder and listening to the sweet voices of the girls around him, Ling's heart was not disturbed at all - for him who used chakra to strengthen his senses after becoming blind, this was not an enjoyment but a great torture.

Ling let out a long breath, and once again suppressed the desire to clear the place through intimidation. He spoke softly and with a smile to the people around him, "Patience for another quarter of an hour. If it is a test, it will probably be over by then. If there is no response, this time it will be a failure. On the way back, I also have to think about how to obtain intelligence from the nobles... Things have become complicated."

Just when Ling was considering whether to leave, a female voice that was enough to make one's bones numb finally sounded, "Okay, okay... lovely girls, please let me receive this guest for the rest of the time?"

The room suddenly became quiet, and the girls who had been surrounding Ling politely bowed to Feiying and Ling one by one and then left the room.

After these people left, Ling finally let out a sigh of relief, "...You really know how to tease people."

"You are really embarrassing me. This is the most grand treat I have ever given you. Or maybe..." Feiying walked slowly to Ling's side, her breath as sweet as orchid, "Do you want me to accompany you?"

"Please don't tease me." Ling just chuckled but didn't back off. "I paid a lot of price to fulfill my promise to you."

"Hmph~ Although you look cute, you are not an easy guest to receive..." Feiying chuckled and sat down gracefully at one side of the small table. Although her posture was casual, it squeezed out an attractive arc on her chest. "But this is better for me. I have asked someone to warm up the good wine I prepared. Whether the deal is settled or not, I will treat you to a drink... Oh, what's wrong with you?"

Ling then raised his head again, his tone sounding a little weak, "No, it's nothing, let's talk about the commission, shall we?"

"Hehe...it seems that powerful ninjas also have cute little troubles." Feiying chuckled a few times. Although her eyes were inquiring, she did not dwell on it too much. Instead, she mentioned her affairs in a charming voice, "My commission is not difficult, but it is not simple either.

As a ninja, you should be able to understand the situation of the ninja clan's control over the mission area, and how they will treat enemies that conflict with their own mission area... and this kind of struggle is not uncommon among us."

Ling sat up straight again and listened to Feiying's words quietly and seriously.

"But the fight between us is different from that between the ninjas. The ninjas will leave some room for easing tension, but once we start fighting, only one can survive. So most of the time we will just tacitly avoid each other, and I have always lived in this way in an orderly manner..."

Feiying sighed softly, "Unfortunately, even if I am cautious and put down my status to please others, there are still people who regard me as a thorn in their eyes and want to get rid of me... With your intelligence, I believe you must have understood my request by now, right?"

Ling nodded slightly. This kind of hiring to eliminate competitors was too common - and everyone could describe themselves as defenseless babies.

"Haha, then I will rely on you from now on."

"Hmm... May I ask what you expect? Do you want full authorization, or do you want me to just do half of it?" Ling tilted his head. "After all, for a profession like yours, it's a hassle to finish too cleanly, right?"

"You're right, so you only need to do half of it..." Feiying's charming phoenix eyes were full of smiles, "I really like you more and more."

"Thank you for your compliment," Ling accepted the compliment without hesitation, "Then please submit the task information to our clan..."

"Ah... Master Ninja, I think you've made a mistake," Feiying leaned forward, resting her chin with her fingers crossed, "I'm issuing a commission to you, not to the clan behind you. I... don't want to get into trouble at this time."

[You've got me into trouble... You've sent me another piece of information.] Ling exhaled, "I see. Please provide me with the mission information, but my price is very high, so please be prepared."

"Hehe...it seems that you don't just want my money," Feiying stood up and reached out to pinch the bell on the table, "but capable people are always worth winning over. I don't mind this deal...but you know - the dead will not have the opportunity to complete the deal."

Ling heard someone open the door and put something on the table. "It seems like you have more than one commission?"

"Of course, if we were not besieged, I would not hire you, a genius ninja from the Strong Ninja Clan, at this time. Although you are of humble status, you still cherish your life..." Feiying pushed the scroll she had just delivered to Ling, "You don't need me to help you read it, right?"

"Of course," Ling picked up the scroll with one hand and gently pulled his collar with the other hand, saying in a gentle voice, "Xiaoyou, can I ask you to help me?"

As Ling finished speaking, Feiying saw the blue kitten popping its head out from his collar. After a slight look of surprise, the smile in her eyes became even more intense.

Youlu lowered his head and glanced at the densely packed and disordered words on the scroll, snorted and laughed, "No wonder you wanted me to come... Those two stupid birds shouldn't be able to convey the message perfectly, right?"

"Yeah, the two of them can't decipher the secret code yet, so I can only rely on myself... If Xiaoyou wasn't here, I would have wasted a lot of time." Ling spread out the scroll, raised his hand and gently stroked Youlu's back. His fingers seemed to accidentally touch the Wuling Pearl hung on Youlu's tail. His voice was gentle, "I am so lucky to have Xiaoyou by my side."

"Hmph..." Youlv jumped onto Ling's head, letting his tail hang naturally so that the Wraith Pearl could stick to the back of Ling's neck, "What a clingy boy."
