Seven years ago, Xiao Wen was not the terrifying assassin Rakshasa in the world. At that time, he was just an eighteen-year-old boy and had not yet made the name of "Rakshasa".

He was originally an orphan, but was picked up by the old master of the Shadow Pavilion and trained to become an assassin. He experienced cruel selection since childhood. He killed others among countless children and became the only one who survived, even if he had talent, luck, and ruthlessness. This is how the Shadow Pavilion trained assassins.

The assassin fell into darkness and never saw the light of heaven ever since.

He was found in a mission. The other party was a big shot. Although he was successfully assassinated, he was chased by many people and fell off a cliff during the battle.

He thought he was going to die like this.

After waking up, he found that he was in a valley, and his injuries were carefully bandaged.

A girl in red walked into the house and looked at him: "I took the medicine when I woke up."

The girl dressed in an exotic state, with a fiery red dress and long braids, which was indescribable and bright.

Xiao Wen was instantly alert and wanted to get his knife, but the bed was empty.

"Your knife is on the table," said the girl in red. "Store such a dangerous thing under the pillow, and you don't have to worry about turning over and cutting your head."

Xiao Wen had a cold face: "Give me the knife."

The assassin's weapons never leave.

When you see his face, you should die.

"Don't you Central Plains people pay the most attention to repaying the kindness of a drop of water? You just treat your savior like this." The girl snorted softly, "You have broken your arms, and you can't even hold them even if you give them a knife. Why do you want to kill me?"

Xiao Wen: "..."

The girl asked again: "What's your name?"

"Xiao Wen." Xiao Wen regretted as soon as he said it, his eyes full of annoyance. How could he tell his real name?

The girl nodded and turned around without caring: "I understand."

Xiao Wen asked quickly: "You asked me for my name, shouldn't you introduce yourself?"

The girl looked back at him and smiled sly: "I won't tell you."

Xiao Wen: "..."

If you don’t say it, don’t say it, as if he doesn’t know it.

-

Xiao Wen was chased and fell off the cliff again. He was seriously injured and could not heal for several months. He lost his power to move, and the girl was taking care of him.

He had never been so meticulously taken care of, and no one was so kind to him. Xiao Wen never believed in good deeds for no reason, and never let go of his guard. But no matter how coldly he treated him, the girl didn't care at all, just smiled and said, "If you ignore me, I will put a lot of peppers in your meal tonight. It's good, too much, oh~"

Xiao Wen compromised in a frustration.

The girl was as passionate as flames and as bright as the scorching sun, almost burning the boy who grew out of the cold pond.

A few days later, Xiao Wen's attitude softened.

"I want to receive a reward." After Xiao Wen's injury was slightly lighter, the girl sat down at the head of his bed with a book, "I saved your life, you want to teach me to read."

Xiao Wen was surprised: "Your Central Plains words are clearly said very well."

"I'm just being influenced by my eyes, I'm very smart." The girl smiled, "But I can't recognize words. If I want to live in the Central Plains in the future, I must be illiterate."

Xiao Wen couldn't help asking: "Don't you go back to your hometown?"

The girl's smile suddenly faded: "I hate there, and I never want to go back in my life."

Xiao Wen tactfully stopped this topic.

The girl laughed again: "Don't you teach me?"

Xiao Wen suddenly blushed a little: "...Okay."

Life in the valley was fast. The girl was very smart, Xiao Wen taught her carefully, and she made rapid progress.

Once, the girl pointed to a word on the book and asked: "Axiao, what does this word mean?"

Xiao Wen glanced at him and suddenly his face exploded and blushed.

That word is: Wushan Yunyu.

Xiao Wen thought for a long time and hesitated: "It's... the matter of husband and wife being loyal."

"I know husband and wife, what does Dunlun mean?" the girl was puzzled, "Your Central Plains vocabulary is really profound."

Xiao Wen's face turned redder: "It's... the joy of men and women."

The girl stuck for a moment and nodded thoughtfully: "I know this. It's not comfortable at all. I hate this kind of thing the most..."

Xiao Wen said nervously: "Have you done this kind of thing?"

"Ah?" The girl was stunned for a moment, "No. I just feel... I must be very uncomfortable."

Xiao Wen said carefully: "What if you are with someone you like?"

He actually realized that he probably... fell in love with this girl.

"The person you like?" The girl hesitated for a moment, "I don't know. I haven't liked anyone yet."

Xiao Wen was slightly disappointed.

"But if it was A Xiao," the girl bent her eyes, "It might be happy."

Xiao Wen was stunned. Before he could savor what this sentence meant, the girl quickly changed the subject: "Speaking of it, why did you fall off the cliff?"

Xiao Wen choked and thought that her questions were harder to answer than the other.

"I killed someone, was discovered, and was chased by someone." He wandered for a long time, but still didn't want to hide it from the other party.

"Why did you kill?" the girl asked curiously.

"Because... I'm an assassin, killing people can earn bounties."

"Assassin?" the girl suddenly became excited, "Can the assassin get a lot of money? Then I have to be a good person."

Xiao Wen quickly dispelled the other party's idea: "Don't, not everyone can be an assassin. He has to wander on the edge of life and death every day."

"Don't underestimate me anymore, I'm very awesome." The girl thought, "and I don't know how to make money alone..."

"It's not possible to be awesome." Xiao Wen said immediately, "If you are short of money, you can find me. I am Shadow Korashara. This is my token, and I will be used as a voucher for you."

After he finished speaking, he lowered his head and added: "...After all, you saved me, and it's worth giving you money."

It's not because I like you.

The girl kissed him on the cheek with joy: "A Xiao, you are so good!"

Xiao Wen was stunned on the spot, his heart was beating.

-

After raising it for a while, Xiao Wen could get out of bed and walk around, leaving the house and ventilating in the valley.

There is a forest in the valley, with a breeze blowing, quiet and peaceful. It was their quietest time.

The girl walked backwards in front, and Xiao Wen followed slowly behind. The young man's eyes were full of unconcealed feelings.

Xiao Wen couldn't help but say, "It's been so long, you should tell me your name, right?"

The girl said, "I don't have a name in the Central Plains yet, why not..." She smiled brightly, "Get me one."

It was a quiet forest. The girl he liked smiled at him and said, "Get one for me."

Xiao Wen's heart exploded into fireworks in that smile. He was stunned for a moment and blurted out.

"That's called...Lin Yan'er."

"Lin" is the place where we meet, "Yan" is the place where we are moved, and "Ar" is what I want to make you feel more intimate.

-

Xiao Wen planned his future very well. When he was completely cured, he would take Yan'er out with him. Yan'er was not familiar with the place, so he settled Yan'er around him. He got the moon before he got close to the water. Why worry about not being able to hold the beauty back?

Besides, he felt that... Yan'er should also like him a little.

It's just that the plan cannot keep up with the changes.

One day, Lin Yan'er looked solemn and whispered: "I think... she is coming."

Xiao Wen asked: "Who?"

Lin Yan'er shook her head and said, "It's okay."

Xiao Wen didn't take it seriously.

——That was the last thing he regretted in his life.

Because he didn't care this time, he looked for her for four years.

Lin Yan'er left without saying goodbye that night, and there was no news.

Xiao Wen looked for her like crazy, but unfortunately there was no trace of it.

He was just an ordinary assassin in the Shadow Pavilion and could not mobilize his power to find Lin Yan'er. He was alone and could not find her at all.

This girl favored him for three months like a beautiful dream, and then woke up from her dream and she never appeared again.

In order to have enough power to find her, Xiao Wen began to take on the task desperately. He took on the task that others dared not take on. The more dangerous the better, the better, and he didn't even give himself time to breathe. Sometimes he still had injuries on his body, so he started to take on the next task without stopping.

The Shadow Pavilion Killer is divided into three levels: Earth Killer, Heaven Killer, and Absolute Killer. As long as he kills enough people and is strong enough, his status in the Shadow Pavilion will rise sharply. After reaching the Shadow Pavilion, he will be qualified to compete for the next cabinet leader.

He wants Shadow Pavilion, not for fame or profit, but for only finding someone.
