The War Sovereign Soaring The Heavens

#82 Chapter 82

In the spacious courtyard, an old man stood by the side, his face grim.

"Grandfather, what's wrong?"

A young man dressed in white walked out of his room.

The old man frowned as he slowly said, "That master Ling Tian seems to be related to the Alchemist Guild Leader, Su Mo …"

"How is it possible? He was a Branch Family disciple and a disciple with another surname at the time; how could he make a connection with the Alchemist Guild?"

Li Qing shook his head continuously, unwilling to believe.

"For some unknown reason, in these past few days, Su Mo would go look for Duan Ling Tian at noon every day."

Li Tai was a little scared for a moment.

Even though he was an Elder of the Li Clan, in front of Su Mo, he was a nobody.

Not mentioning that Su Mo's strength was above his strength, just based on Su Mo's identity as an Eight-Class Alchemist, if Su Mo wanted to deal with him, he wouldn't even need to do it himself; just a single word from Su Mo would cause a group of people to come for his life, only to kill him as a favor to Su Mo.

This was precisely the influence of an Eight-Class Alchemist.

"Grandfather, could it be that the hostility for the crippled finger would only be released like this? I'm not resigned!"

Li Qing's expression was gloomy and his breathing became hasty.

"Qing, you can calm down; grandfather will definitely help you get revenge .. Now, since Su Mo and Duan Ling Tian are in contact, I cannot get involved directly, I cannot get involved, so I have to ask someone else to face it."

Li Tai's face smiled coldly.

"Grandfather, what do you mean?"

Li Qing was confused.

"Money makes the world go round."

Li Tai's eyebrows wrinkled.

"Grandfather, do you mean we should hire Ghastly Shadow?"

Li Qing's eyes glowed.

Ghastly Shadow, the top assassin organization in the Crimson Sky Kingdom. They rose up like a storm twenty years ago and swept the kingdom away.

As long as Ghastly Shadow accepted the task, his success rate was 100%.

Of course, this was closely related to the rules of Ghastly Shadow.

If one wanted to post a task in Ghastly Shadow, the deposit had to be paid and the target identified.

Three days later, one needed to reconfirm with Ghastly Shadow to see if Ghastly Shadow was willing to accept this task.

If they do not want to, the deposit will be refunded.

If they want, the cost of balance should be paid.

The terrifying Shadow only accepted the task they believed in.

As far as Li Qing was concerned, Ghastly Shadow was an organization with formidable assassins so killing Duan Ling Tian would be a piece of cake.

Deep in the night, in the Li Clan Estate, a powerful figure appeared.

Before long, the figure arrived at a secluded old building in Aurora City and walked in.

The hall was very spacious and had dim lighting.

Behind the table, a young man with a slightly pale face sat there. When he noticed the movements, he raised his head and stared with a cold gaze at the incoming figure.

"I want to send a task: Li Clan, Duan Ling Tian! This is the deposit."

That figure is straightforward. He pulled out a pile of silver and slapped it on the table, then turned around and left.

"Li Clan, Duan Ling Tian."

The young man signed up.

Dawn .

When the first light of morning illuminated the earth, Duan Ling Tian walked out of his room and stretched his body.

A new day!

"Huh?"

Duan Ling Tian only looked forward to seeing the two young girls happily chatting in the courtyard.

"Little Fei, you're here this early. Do you miss me?"

Duan Ling Tian's eyes narrowed, greedily measuring the hot and evil young girl's body …

Li Fei looked at Duan Ling Tian and angrily said, "I didn't come to look for you, I came for Ke Er's younger sister."

Duan Ling Tian did not produce anything. As she ate breakfast, she sharpened her ears to hear what the two young girls were talking about.

In the end, he realized that the two young girls were chatting about interesting stories from their childhood.

After he finished breakfast, Duan Ling Tian left alone and left the Li Clan Plantation.

Su Mo brought him good news yesterday. Of the five rare materials required Blood Crescent Inscription, two will arrive at Aurora City in the next two days.

Therefore, he started preparing the other ingredients.

Writing the Blood Crescent Inscription required a total of eleven materials.

Six of them were relatively ordinary.

Arriving at Aurora City's large trading market, Duan Ling Tian entered the medicinal shop where he sold Six Treasures Body Tempering Liquid at.

Of the six ingredients, three were ordinary medicinal ingredients.

"Manager!"

Duan Ling Tian greeted the manager as soon as he entered.

Before long, under Duan Ling Tian's confused gaze, the manager brought him to a small room in the medicine shop.

"Manager, what's wrong?"

Duan Ling Tian asked.

"Someone wants your life."

The manager stared fixedly at Duan Ling Tian as he said this straightforwardly.

"Huh?"

Disciple Duan Ling Tian shriveled.

At this moment, Duan Ling Tian even had the misconception that the manager's disposition had changed.

If past managers were only really slovenly traders, then the current manager faintly exuded an unexpected sense.

It seemed like his previous suspicions were correct, this manager of the drugstore was definitely not simple.

"The Grand Elder of the Li Clan, Li Tai, posted an assignment in Ghastly Shadow last night. The target is you" the manager said bluntly.

What a terrible shadow?

Disciple Duan Ling Tian shriveled.

He had heard of the infamous assassin organization throughout the Crimson Sky Kingdom.

"You're from Ghastly Shadow?"

Duan Ling Tian suddenly laughed.

"Yes, by day, I am the manager of this drugstore, but by night, I am the one in charge of Ghastly Shadow in Aurora City."

The manager slowly nodded.

"Manager, doing something like this, I bet it's against Ghastly Shadow's rules, right?"

Duan Ling Tian's gaze twitched slightly.

The manager was very honest.

As far as he's concerned, though, the small amount of silver Li Tai paid for the killing was not even enough to be considered a spare change compared to the profit he had gained from Duan Ling Tian's Six Treasures Body Tempering Liquid.

He naturally knew how to choose between the two.

"Then what do you mean now is, you refuse his duty?" Duan Ling Tian asked.

"Of course . "

The manager nodded.

"If I post a task targeting Li Tai right now, will Ghastly Shadow accept?" Duan Ling Tian asked again.

"of course. Terrible Shadow only acknowledged the money .. But the price of the Grand Elder of the Li Clan is very expensive," the manager replied.

"How much?"

"1,000,000 silver!"

"So expensive?!"

"of course. Li Tai after all was a Grand Elder of the Li Clan, an existence at the eighth level of the Origin Core Stage. If you really want to post this task, since we are business partners, we are, I can give you 20% discount. "

"20% discount%? Even so it would be 800,000. You Terrible Shadow people are really greedy

"You can go into debt without interest, and it will be deducted from the profits of the Six Refined Tempering Liquids Body of Six Treasures."

"Forget over. 800,000 silver, I'm reluctant to part with it. .. I'll just do it myself."

"You?"

"What, doubt me?"

"Little."

"How about this, I don't need Ghastly Shadow to kill him, but help me with a small matter …"

After obtaining the approval from the manager and purchasing the medicinal ingredients he needed, Duan Ling Tian left the medicinal shop satisfied.

800,000 silver …

To kill Li Tai.

To Duan Ling Tian, it was truly not worth it.

But Li Tai had actually posted the task of killing him.

Duan Ling Tian's eyes lit up coldly.

After purchasing the remaining materials, he returned home.

At noon today, Su Mo did not come.

Duan Ling Tian had already taught him everything he could teach.

The rest was something he could only rely on to understand.

Three days later, deep in the night, at the Ghastly Shadow operating point in Aurora City.

Li Tai looked at the young man behind the counter as he asked, "How was the confirmation of the task I posted three days ago? To kill a first-rate Core Formation martial artist, 100,000 silver should be enough, right?"

"100,000 silver? Customer, are you kidding me?"

The eyes of the pale-faced young man flickered with a cold light that would make his hair goosebumps.

"What?"

Li Tai's heart jolted and his premonition was bad.

"According to the information gathered by our Ghastly Shadow, this Duan Ling Tian is the first rank youth genius in the Aurora City Hidden Dragon List for this year … Just at this point alone would cost at least 300,000 silver."

The young man slowly said.

"300,000 silver? Okay." Okay."

Li Tai gnashed his teeth. Even though it made her sad, she still agreed.

"Customer, I'm not done yet."

The young man frowned.

"What else do you have to say?" Li Tai asked.

The young man continued, "We also discovered that Duan Ling Tian was close to the Chairman of the Alchemist Guild, Su Mo, and killing someone close to him is very risky for us. Thus, combining the above facts, the price for this head of Duan Ling Tian was 1,000,000 silver. "

"1.000.000 silver?"

Li Tai was stunned.

Although he had expected the assignment would not be possible when the young man called Su Mo, he did not expect that Ghastly Shadow would set a price of 1,000,000 silver for Duan Ling Tian's head.

Not to mention he did not have much silver on him, even if he had taken out that much, he would not be willing to spend it.

A mere first-rate Core Formation child, even if his strength was strange, he was only comparable to a third-rate Core Formation martial artist.

To him, killing such a child was as simple as mowing the grass.

The young man looked at Li Tai as he asked, "Customer, may I ask if you still want to post this task?"

"No, return the deposit to me."

Li Tai hurriedly shook his head.

Really joke!

1.000.000 silver …

This amount of money was enough even to send a task in Ghastly Shadow to kill an Origin Core martial artist.

After Li Tai left.

A middle-aged man slowly walked out of the inner room.

"Manager."

The young man quickly bowed to the middle-aged man.

If Duan Ling Tian was here, he would definitely be able to recognize with the view that this middle-aged man was the manager of the drug store.

"I was curious, how would he kill this Li Tai .." the middle-aged man thought in his heart. The corners of his mouth had a slight smile.

The Li Clan Plantation.

"Grandfather, how?" Li Qing hurriedly asked as soon as he realized that Li Tai had returned.

He knew what Li Tai had to do, so he waited for the results.

"I'm canceling the job."

Li Tai shook his head.

"Huh?"

Li Qing was stunned. "Grandfather, why?"

"Huh! That terrifying shadow was actually asking for 1,000,000 silver."

Li Tai's expression sank.

"What ?! Killing a Core Formation child for only 1,000,000 silver? Did they commit daylight robbery?"

Li Qing had an expression of disbelief.

"They found a connection between Duan Ling Tian and Su Mo, so they were a little scared and thus asked for a high price.Qing, don't worry, although Ghastly Shadow won't accept this task, either, Grandfather was still not going to let that Duan Ling Tian continue to live. "

Li Tai looked at Li Qing as he guaranteed this.

"Thank you, Grandpa," Li Qing said excitedly.

If Duan Ling Tian did not die, he could not eat or sleep quietly.
