"I-i will help you! I will take you anywhere you want to go!" The Captain of the Guards spoke unconditionally, starting with trying to apologize for previously trying to drag him in this mess.
However, he didn't stop there. "But if we don't kill them, it won't be good for anyone! The Assassins are from the Shadow Temple! Now that you've seen one of their faces, they won't let you live! No one who comes across them is allowed to live! This is their rule!"
"They might pretend to work with you and let you leave, but they'll tell their higher ups about you. You'll become the most wanted person for the Shadow Temple! Your life will never be the same if you don't kill them now!"
Seeing Xu Shan uninterested, the man further continued, "You might be strong enough to survive the Assassins here, but they are the weakest in their group! Even you can't survive when the strongest comes after you!"
