Madam General, please run slower.

Chapter 1: Defectors will be killed without mercy

"Defectors will be killed without mercy!"

The evening breeze blew through the bamboo forest, making a rustling sound, like a death spell that went straight to the heart of the predecessor.

The silver half-white feather mask concealed most of the woman's appearance, but still could not hide her pale complexion and the sinister look in her eyes.

Cold sweat soaked her hair, and a few strands of black silk were scattered messily on her forehead, making her pretty face look even whiter. The brocade robe fit tightly to her waistline, perfectly highlighting the woman's proud figure, but no one stopped to appreciate this beautiful scene.

Li (li) glanced at the series of little tails chasing after him and couldn't help but curse under his breath.

"Chase, chase, chase your father! Did I dig up your family's ancestral graves or steal your wife? It's endless, isn't it?"

A brief tinnitus blocked out the surrounding sounds.

Li gritted her teeth, and did not stop the movement of her feet because of this sudden phenomenon. She even slightly sped up her movements, which were faster than her previous training speed. This was an explosion that broke through the limit at the speed of life and death, and she also knew that her body had reached the end of its strength.

"Wind Art, rise."

A familiar voice came from behind Li, without a trace of warmth as usual.

"Damn it! You father's ***." Li cursed more and more dirty, and his speech speed became faster and faster.

The thin air tightly gripped Li's heart, forcing it to beat rapidly to supply oxygen. Blood continued to rush to his lower limbs. He was unable to force out any spiritual power and could only watch himself being trapped in the wind array.

The swift wind was as sharp as a blade, forming a vortex thirty centimeters from Li's feet, trapping him tightly.

The corners of the clothes that were lifted by the wind were torn into thin strips the moment they hit the wind, and were stirred into ashes by the wind. If a person lost his balance and fell down, he would probably be turned into minced meat.

Li lowered his eyes, put his hand on the side of his neck, and adjusted his breathing until his heart rate slowed down. Then he looked at the people who were chasing him.

The five people in front of him were wearing the same ink-colored long gowns with dark patterns, and wearing the same silver half-masks as Li's on their faces. The difference was that Li's mask was adorned with white feathers, which added a bit of charm to the solemnity, while theirs were made of pure silver with patterns, which made them look more solemn.

"All five of you are here. The Shadow Master really cares about me!" Li chuckled and looked at the leading man. It was his wind formation that trapped her.

Kui responded to her gaze and said calmly: "Defectors will be killed without mercy."

As he spoke, Kui half-clenched his right hand, and the wind formation shrank a little with his movement.

There was no emotion in his eyes, as if he was looking at a cold corpse. Even though the person in front of him had grown up with him, it could not cause any emotional fluctuations in him.

"Stop, stop, stop! The government office has to listen to people's excuses before detaining the prisoners. Now you sentence me to death with just this one sentence. Do you think you are the judge of the underworld?" Li shouted angrily as he watched Feng Ren getting closer and closer.

The people in front seemed to have gotten used to the way the woman spoke. They were calm and remained alert.

The youngest of the five pursed his lips, stepped forward and patted Kui on the shoulder, stopping his next move.

"Xiao Liu, do you want to plead for her?" Kui glanced at him with a fierce tone. If he dared to nod, he would kill him too.

Xiao Liu shook his head and explained: "Her meridians are broken and she can't use her spiritual power to escape. I'll just say a few words."

Kui did not respond to him. He did not loosen his right hand that was controlling the wind formation, nor did he clench it again, as if he had tacitly agreed to his request.

Xiao Liu breathed a sigh of relief and looked at the woman in the formation. Blood was flowing out of her ears and her back was hunched over due to her injuries and she couldn't straighten up. She looked the most miserable he had ever seen.

In the past, no matter how badly injured she was, she was always dressed appropriately in front of them, looking down on everything. When she saw them injured, she would help bandage their wounds while cursing at them.

This is her unique pride as a "Li".

But at this moment, her clothes were ragged and tattered, and only the ruthlessness and unwillingness in her eyes allowed him to glimpse a bit of her death. He didn't do much just now, why did his heart feel astringent, as if it was blocked by something, was he injured?

"Why?" Xiao Liu uttered these three words without any reason, but everyone present understood what he was asking, and this was also what they wanted to ask.

"What do you mean why? The mouth is for speaking. If you have something to say, say it all. Don't just talk nonsense." Li knew what he was asking, but he just didn't want to do as they wished. He was going to die anyway, and if he didn't curse a few more times, he would never be able to curse again in the future.

Xiao Liu took a deep breath, suppressed his anger, and asked through gritted teeth: "Why did you betray the organization?"

"Betrayal?" Li snorted. "Where's the evidence? I've said it hundreds of times that there is no evidence. Who believed it?"

Xiaoliu: "You said you didn't betray the organization, so why did you let the assassination target go?"

I'm happy with it, what's it to you?

Li really wanted to retort, but once she opened her mouth, she was completely stuck on the word "betrayal". So even if she did it on purpose, she wouldn't say it.

"What's the matter? You guys are 100% successful when you go on missions! I just made a mistake once, but you guys are holding me hostage. Do you really think I'm a god?"

"You!" Xiaoliu wanted to argue further, but Kui stopped him.

Kui looked at his former companion in the wind formation and said in a cold tone, "You violated the rules. The organization will confiscate your life. You can only accept it."

Li: I really want to spit at you, but I'm afraid of contaminating my saliva.

If it were you, would you be able to accept it? Well, Kui's words seemed to be true. I'm afraid that if the superiors gave the order, he would commit suicide on the spot.

Li Shen sighed. There was no point in arguing with Kui. The only thing in his mind was rules.

Li reached out and took off the mask on his face, gently stroking the white feathers on it, and the bright red blood stains instantly stained the whiteness.

Li was stunned for a moment, looking in astonishment at the hand that was stroking the feather. The palm of his right hand was full of blood and flesh, and liquid kept condensing and dripping, and the white bones inside could be vaguely seen.

Can't you even feel the pain? What a pity for this holy color.

The mask slipped out of his hand and was swept away by the wind, disappearing in a moment. The headband on his head was gone, and his graceful hair was swept up by the wind, cut off mercilessly, and fluttered around his face at will, and the mocking arc at the corner of his mouth revealed the madness of his owner.

"Do you have any last words?"

Xiaoliu pursed her lips, and her eyes couldn't help but turn cold. The slight discomfort in her heart also disappeared completely after hearing what Li had just said.

Li's eyes swept over the five people in front of him. These masks were worn for outsiders to see. To exaggerate, they could recognize each other just by breathing.

'Mo Shadow' is the organization they belong to. Just as the name suggests, except for death, they will never be able to escape from this shadow in their lifetime.

The six of them crawled out of that den of evil together. They were teammates as well as opponents. Death in their hands could be considered a complete and worthy end.

Li chuckled, and after figuring it out, his tone became much more relaxed, "I don't have any last words, but I do have a last wish."

After Li finished speaking, she suddenly sat down. She had lost too much blood and was left with no strength left.

In the cramped wind, she could only bend her knees and hug her calves. Even though she was curled up like this, her back was still touched by the wind blade, which gouged off a layer of her skin.

Xiaoliu took two steps back cautiously, gathering spiritual energy at his fingertips.

The others were also startled by Li's sudden action and subconsciously gathered their spiritual power. Some of them had already grasped the spiritual swords formed by their spiritual power.

For Li at this moment, if anyone here snapped their fingers, she would surely die.

Amidst everyone's wary looks, Li laughed, and laughed out loud. It was not like his previous chuckles, and it was free and unrestrained without sarcasm or contempt.

She noticed it! When everyone was frightened and used their spiritual power, the wind array that trapped her moved half an inch outward. Kui, Kui, the best puppet of the Shadow of Death, is not that good.

"Ahem!" Li Xiao was tired, and the wounds on her body were more open because of her laughter. Anyway, lice don't itch, so she didn't care about the little injury at this time.

Li swallowed the blood in his throat and said slowly: "Don't worry, I don't like to force people. Since we have worked together for so many years, can you help me?"

Xiaoliu dispersed the spiritual power in his hand, and when he saw that Kui looked normal, he responded, "You can talk."

Li was silent for a moment, then looked past them to the boundless sky.

'The setting sun shines on the wilderness, black water floods the empty tomb'2, blood dyes the sky, washing away the sins of the world and ushering in endless darkness. This is her favorite scenery.

"Watch the sunset with me again." The woman's voice was soothing, without any ups and downs.

Everyone followed her gaze and saw the sunset glow that seemed to be as hot as fire, burning half the sky.

They watched the red clouds slowly burn into ashes under the swallowing of the night, and finally turn into stars in the sky.

The people imprisoned in the array knelt down with their heads bowed, looking peaceful and calm as if they were asleep.

Yes, dusk is falling and it's time to rest.

Kui focused his eyes on his right hand which had been half clenched. After wasting so much time, his spiritual power was almost exhausted. With a little force, he turned his right hand into a fist, and everything disappeared.

Kui did not raise his eyes, but stared at his clenched right hand and said in a low voice:

"Defectors will be killed without mercy."
