Chapter 274:177. Dao Sect’s Opportunity
Translator: 549690339
In a dark and gloomy place, in a cold and gloomy hall, there were shadows and shadows, which were strange and unpredictable.
A few Wu family servants had already finished reporting.
The complete destruction of the Wu family’s ” amusement island ” was not a small matter. Or rather, it was the first time an aristocratic family had been destroyed by someone.
In the middle of the hall was a ghastly white bone throne.
Concubine Wu was wearing a Houtu mask and sitting on a chair with her chin in her hands.
During this period of time, she had already taken in two large underground forces south of the Yangtze River.
Immediately, the twelve figures of the hidden blade and the blood rain fell on the 1008 floors.
The Twelve Phases of Hidden Blade was an assassin organization. This organization had a powerful ability to collect information. They were so powerful that they never appeared in front of the world, and no one knew how to place an order with them.
If they felt that you needed to kill someone and they could help you kill that person, they would leave a letter next to you. This letter would suddenly appear in your pocket, under your pillow, or on your desk.
The letter was easy to read. On the lower right corner was a gray skeleton with two crossed blades, as well as the remuneration they had written in advance. If you wanted to, you only needed to press your fingerprint and leave it where it was.
The only thing left was to prepare the payment.
Of course, you could choose not to accept the letter’s proposal. The result would be simple. Your opponent would receive the same letter, and you would die.
The Bloodrain of Heaven and Earth was an assassin organization. This organization was notorious.
Because this organization didn’t care about good or evil, it only cared about money.
And the famous saying in the building since ancient times was that “all heads have a price”.
As long as the money or reward was appropriate, even his own parents could be tortured and killed for him to see.
What was even more outrageous was that this organization actually implemented a ” temporary mission system for peripheral personnel “. In other words, no matter who it was, if they were short of money, they could go to this Blood Rain Tower to take on orders and then hide their identity to kill people.
There had been many righteous forces in the pugilistic world who had tried to encircle and suppress this Blood Rain Hall, but they all ended with the death of the sect master. The identity of the murderer was still unknown.
Such a powerful force…
It should not have been subdued so quickly.
However, aristocratic families and these forces were not on the same level at all.
The appearance of Wu Ji and the cooperation of the Wu family’s forces directly tore through all their defenses.
An hour later.
A black pigeon flapped its wings and flew into the hall.
Concubine Wu took down the letter tied to the pigeon’s leg and looked at it. Suddenly, she clenched her fist and the letter disappeared as if it was being gnawed by countless transparent mouths.
“Seventh brother, you’re finally willing to come out after being depressed for so long?
However, the world has changed. Your eleventh realm is not the only one.
Fourth Sister didn’t pay attention to you before. This time, I’ll play with you.”
Suddenly,
The black pigeon screamed.
Wu Ji had clearly let go of her hand, but the black pigeon still could not fly out. It seemed to be dragged by a strange force and could not take off.
Then, starting from its claws, its entire body disappeared bit by bit, as if an invisible demon was eating its body without spilling a drop of blood.
It wasn’t that Xia Ji hadn’t thought of recruiting forces.
But what was the use?
Other than wasting his time, it was useless.
Was there any force that could rival the aristocratic families?
Could he fight with the Supreme Palace and Eternal Life Pavilion that he had yet to meet?
No, he could not see any hope.
He put on a black cloak and covered his face above the bridge of his nose as he walked alone in Jiangnan in the spring rain.
The rain soaked his clothes, but he didn’t care.
The streets were bustling with activity and people came and went, but he would be alone.
He believed that Su Tian was sincere to him now.
But what about the future?
He had only known Su Tian for a few months, but she had lived for more than 10,000 years.
Along the way, he sensed a few groups of people from the martial world who were looking for the whereabouts of King Shenwu. Those people were very careful with their words, their secret codes were very clever, and their actions were flawless. However, he was no longer on the same level as these people.
No matter how those people searched, they could not find him.
Xia Ji ordered a jug of fine wine and a few side dishes at Spring Flower Autumn Moon Restaurant in Jiangnan. He listened to the people in the restaurant talk about Jianghu stories for a while.
These stories might be major events for people in the martial world, such as the birth of some treasure, the young miss of some family finding a spouse through martial arts competition, and the change of the Heaven Roll. However, to him, they were all trivial matters.
When one’s realm was high,
Naturally, it was far away from the human world. And if one day he was so high that no one could catch up to him, Then, everyone would be far away from him.
He would no longer be interested in the topics they discussed.
Their emotions were like drizzle to him, and he would not be moved at all. This was also the reason why he didn’t want to find a ‘dao companion.’
Would his Dao-companion be able to keep up with him and be on the same level of existence as him?
Was his cultivation partner really in love with him and trusted him?
Su Tian might be able to satisfy the first point, but she would not be satisfied with the second.
An Rongrong might be able to satisfy the second point, but not the first.
“Waiter, another bowl of small wontons.”
“Alright, sir.”
Soon, another steaming wonton was served.
Wontons have more skin and less meat,
It was delicious.
But after eating a few,
The leather contract in his mind suddenly reacted.
This time, it was not Hu Xian Er.
It was Ji Xuan.
The leather scroll contract transmitted a message. ” Teacher, the Zhou family’s state preceptor has appeared. He calls himself the Ten Directions Paragon. He came to see me once, but he said that he was looking for Mirror Lake Immortal and Fairy. He left without finding them. But I know that he is the state preceptor..”
