Outside, many people were waiting for the Duke, and when they saw him storming out, there was a hint of unease in their expressions.
"Has the young lady come out, Duke?"
Li'an asked nervously, but the end of his question gradually faded under the Duke's glare.
"I'm only concerned for you..."
Seeing the Duke's angry demeanor, Li'an knew that he probably hadn't achieved what he wanted this time.
The Duke strutted ahead aggressively, and after a while, he suddenly turned his head to look at Li'an.
"Find me a few people, the kind who specialize in covert missions!"
Li'an was startled, "Duke, what kind of missions?"
The ones who operate in the shadows are those who dance with death; why does the Duke suddenly want to find them?
Before he could think of a reason, he saw the Duke's face darken and heard,
"What's the mission? An assassination!"
Ignoring Li'an's shocked expression, he walked off directly.
