“Duan Ling Tian… Who is he exactly? He even has a consumable Royal Grade Celestial Weapon!”

w.a.n.g Hong and Zheng Hong Yi were similarly shocked.

“Zheng Hong Yi, do you think it’s possible that Duan Ling Tian is a reincarnation of a powerful Celestial Lord? Is there a possibility the consumable Royal Grade Celestial Weapon is something he left behind in his past life?” w.a.n.g Hong asked Zheng Hong Yi through a Communication Celestial Talisman.

“There’s a high possibility of that…” Zheng Hong Yi replied.

“Unfortunately, we’re too weak… Otherwise, we can claim everything he owns after he dies!” w.a.n.g Hong said greedily.

“It’s impossible for me… However, it’s not impossible for you to claim his possessions…” Zheng Hong Yi replied.

“It’s not impossible for me?” w.a.n.g Hong asked in confusion. Her interest was piqued.

“Well, if the grand elder is willing to kill Duan Ling Tian, Duan Ling Tian’s possessions will, naturally, go to him. At that time, as his granddaughter, wouldn’t you have the pick of Duan Ling Tian’s possessions?” Zheng Hong Yi said, clearly trying to tempt w.a.n.g Hong.

…

After returning to his residence, Duan Ling Tian received a message from Sun Liang Peng, the Sect Leader of the Simplicity Celestial Sect, as soon as he stepped foot into his room.

“Duan Ling Tian, according to the rules of the Blood Skull Gang, if their a.s.sa.s.sin failed a mission, they would send another a.s.sa.s.sin to finish the job. Additionally, the price would be halved. Therefore, it’s best if you don’t leave the grounds of the Simplicity Celestial Sect’s estate at all… If you must leave, at least inform me about it so that I can a.s.sign someone to protect you.” Sun Liang Peng’s voice was solemn. It was clear he took the threats of an a.s.sa.s.sin from the Blood Skull Gang very seriously.

“Thank you for your reminder, sect leader.” Naturally, Duan Ling Tian knew the Blood Skull Gang would not give up so easily. He had learned about this while he was in the Simplicity Celestial Sect’s inner sect library. Nevertheless, he still thanked Sun Liang Peng for Sun Liang Peng’s kind intention.

‘After killing the a.s.sa.s.sin from the Blood Skull Gang, my current cultivation base is roughly that of a Ten Directions Celestial King. However, because my comprehension of the profundities isn’t too deep, if I have to face a Five Elements Celestial King who has comprehended the same number of profundities as the a.s.sa.s.sin I killed, it’d be impossible for me to defend myself unless I use the Seven Orifices Exquisite Sword,’ Duan Ling Tian thought himself.

The deeper one comprehended a profundity, the greater one’s improvement would be. The improvements could even be a few times greater.

After a while, Duan Ling Tian shook his head and thought to himself, ‘I should focus on fully comprehending the law of fire’s Pillaging Profundity now… As long as the a.s.sa.s.sin the Blood Skull Gang sends isn’t too powerful, I should be capable of defending myself with my current cultivation base if I have a better comprehension of the Pillaging Profundity.’

He no longer wasted time and focused on comprehending the law of fire’s Pillaging Profundity. With the Chaos Divine Flame’s help, he progressed rapidly.

…

Meanwhile, at the borders of the Profound Nether Mansion.

Swoos.h.!.+

A black figure crossed the Profound Nether Mansion’s territories in just a blink of an eye. He was the new a.s.sa.s.sin that the Blood Skull Gang had sent to kill Duan Ling Tian. At this moment, he muttered to himself as he flew in the sky, “What’s going through the organization’s mind? Is it necessary to send me out for this job? The target is essentially like a Ten Directions Celestial King who has only comprehended two profundities from the law of earth. Any Four Phenomenons Celestial King from the organization is more than capable of killing him!”

A Three Talents or Four Phenomenons Celestial King from the Blood Skull Gang was much stronger than a One Basic Celestial King. It was fairly easy for a Four Phenomenons Celestial King from the Blood Skull Gang to kill someone who was no different from a Ten Directions Celestial King who had only comprehended two profundities from a law.

“Unless he has comprehended more than four profundities, he’d die if he meets a Six Combos Celestial King like me!” The a.s.sa.s.sin was clearly very confident about killing Duan Ling Tian. After all, Six Combos Celestial Kings from the Blood Skull Gang had strength comparable to leaders of ordinary grade-seven forces. For this reason, he felt it was a waste that the Blood Skull Gang sent him to kill Duan Ling Tian.

Duan Ling Tian was, naturally, unaware that the Blood Skull Gang had already sent a Six Combos Celestial King to a.s.sa.s.sinate him.

…

A month later.

In the valley where the true disciples and inner disciples of the Simplicity Celestial Sect resided.

A figure flew out from one of the inner disciples’ residences. He was enthusiastically greeted by his peers as soon as he appeared.

“Senior Brother Zheng!”

This person was none other than Zheng Hong Yi, the third direct disciple of Sun Liang Peng, the Sect Leader of the Simplicity Celestial Sect.

‘It has only been a month, but the new a.s.sa.s.sin from the Blood Skull Gang has arrived? It took the previous a.s.sa.s.sin a few months before he arrived. It seems like this a.s.sa.s.sin is much stronger than the previous one. Well, it’s only natural they’d sent someone powerful. After all, I’ve told Young Master Chen that Duan Ling Tian possesses a consumable Royal Grade Celestial Weapon. That was how he killed the previous a.s.sa.s.sin. His current strength is still comparable to a Ten Directions Celestial King!’ Zheng Hong Yi thought to himself, ‘It’s unlikely that the Blood Skull Gang has sent a Ten Directions Celestial King here… Although Duan Ling Tian’s strength is comparable to a Ten Directions Celestial King due to the consumable Royal Grade Celestial Weapon, he has only comprehended two profundities from the law of earth. One of them is law of earth’s Fundamental Profundity, the Earth Elemental Profundity.”

He continued to speculate inwardly, ‘A Three Talents or Four Phenomenons Celestial King from the Blood Skull Gang is more than enough to kill him… The profundities the a.s.sa.s.sins from the Blood Skull Gang comprehended aren’t any weaker than elders with the same cultivation bases from the Simplicity Celestial Sect. To take only one month to travel here, the a.s.sa.s.sin has to be a Three Talents Celestial King, at least!’

Zheng Hong Yi’s eyes flashed with excitement. Before he left the valley, he looked at one of the true disciples’ residences and sneered. ‘Duan Ling Tian, your time’s up… It’s best if you stay in your residence like a coward. Otherwise, you’ll certainly die!’

…

This time Zheng Hong Yi had left the Simplicity Celestial Sect’s estate alone to meet the a.s.sa.s.sin from the Blood Skull Gang without informing w.a.n.g Hong.

Chen Li, the illegitimate child of one of the Vice Leaders of the Blood Skull Gang, had a designated place where Zheng Hong Yi would meet with the a.s.sa.s.sin.

Previously, Zheng Hong Yi had only brought w.a.n.g Hong along since she had to pay the deposit. However, there was no need for further payment to be made so he did not bother to inform w.a.n.g Hong at all.

Finally, Zheng Hong Yi met with the a.s.sa.s.sin in a remote and desolate canyon.

“Senior,” Zheng Hong Yi greeted the man respectfully.

The a.s.sa.s.sin was a middle-aged man with a medium build. He wore the a.s.sa.s.sins’ standard long black robe from the Blood Skull Gang. His appearance was average, but his eyes were fierce and cold.

Zheng Hong Yi felt chills running up his spine when he met the a.s.sa.s.sin’s eyes.

The middle-aged man looked at Zheng Hong Yi and said nonchalantly, “I’ll try to lure the target out… However, if you’re able to lure the target out, the Blood Skull Gang will reward you with ten bottles of Duke Grade Celestial Pills.”

The a.s.sa.s.sin’s strength was on par with Sun Liang Peng’s strength. It would be difficult for them to defeat each other. He was also confident he would be able to breach the Simplicity Celestial Sect’s defense to kill Duan Ling Tian and escape unharmed. However, he did not dare to do so. This was because the Profound Nether Mansion would not let this matter slide even if the Simplicity Celestial Sect was just a grade-seven force. If the Profound Nether Mansion mobilized their forces, it would be difficult for him to leave the Profound Nether Mansion’s territories after he completed his mission. This was because the estates of the Three Sects and Two Clans were protected by special Formations. An indelible mark would appear on his body once he entered the estates, even if it was just for a short time. With the mark, the Profound Nether Mansion would have no problem tracking him. Once he was found, the inspectors from the Profound Nether Mansion would surely kill him.

“Ten bottles of Duke Grade Celestial Pills?” Zheng Hong Yi’s eyes lit up when he heard the middle-aged man’s words.

Duke Grade Celestial Pills were beneficial to Celestial Dukes, similar to how Overarching Heaven Pills were beneficial to Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestials. Despite the same effects, Duke Grade Celestial Dukes were far more valuable and rare compared to Overarching Heaven Pills.

Although Zheng Hong Yi was the third direct disciple of the Sect Leader of Simplicity Celestial Sect, Duke Grade Celestial Pills were still valuable to him. He would only use them if he was very close to a breakthrough. In the Devata Realms, a bottle of Duke Grade Celestial Pills would contain ten pills. With ten bottles, it meant that he would possess 100 pills!

After the two men exchanged Soul Pearls, Zheng Hong Yi returned to the Simplicity Celestial Sect’s estate. He could barely contain his excitement whenever he thought about the ten bottles of Duke Grade Celestial Pills. He thought to himself eagerly, ‘How can I lure Duan Ling Tian away from the Simplicity Celestial Sect’s estate?’
