Chapter 530 - 530: 528. Three Assassinations
“Ask him to help me assassinate another person.” “If you don’t want to introduce me, it’s fine.” Li Gucheng said nonchalantly,”Just like last time, you can help me pass the message.”
Wu Tong relaxed a little when she heard that, but she didn’t agree immediately. “”Although we help each other and carry out transactions, whether it’s him or me, we have no intention of being killers or thugs.
Previously, the assassination of the Young Prince Li of the West Qin Empire was still being pursued by the people of the West Qin Empire. This kind of thing was too troublesome.
We have no enmity with your enemies. It’s fine if we do it once in a while, but if we do it often, we’ll have enemies everywhere.”
“I will not let you work for nothing.” Li Gucheng said, ” I will naturally repay you handsomely for the deal between us. I will also repay your friend. As long as I can do it, you can name your price.
He looked at Wu Tong. ” I have no intention of finding out your true identity. If you don’t trust me, we can find Mr. Zun to be a witness. ‘
Wu Tong pondered for a moment and said, “”Don’t do it again.”
“Alright.” Li Gucheng nodded. Just as he was about to speak, Wu Tong suddenly said, “”Oh right, if the person you want to assassinate is a Martial Saint, then there’s nothing to talk about.”
‘ Don’t worry, ” Li Gucheng said. ” It’s a Martial Emperor. As far as I know, he should be at the 14th level now. ‘
When Chen Luoyang heard this, a name appeared in his mind.
His expression remained unchanged as he pretended to be “Wu Tong” and asked, “Who is it?”
“Green Bull Temple’s direct disciple, Zhao RiMian.” Li Gucheng said.
” You’re really something. If your enemy isn’t the West Qin Empire, then it’s the Holy Land of Dao Sect. ” “You’re not actually trying to chase us out, are you?” Wu Tong complained.
“Just like last time, we don’t have to kill him. We just have to injure him severely,” Li Gucheng smiled.
“Then I’ll say the same thing as last time.” “If there’s a Martial Saint guarding Zhao Rimian, then we’ll pretend our deal never happened,” said Wu Tong.
Li Gucheng nodded. ” No problem. As far as I know, he is not in the Green Bull Temple. He has come to the West Qin Dynasty alone.
“Although he’s alone, wouldn’t West Qin send us into the tiger’s den?” Wu Tong said unhappily.
“He won’t be staying in West Qin for more than a few days before he returns. You can attack him on his way back.” Li Gucheng said.
” I’ll see. ” Wu Tong pondered for a moment. ” Let’s see the situation.
He looked at Li Gucheng and said seriously, “”We have already offended the West Qin Empire, and now we have to offend the Green Bull Temple in such a short time. The risk is too great. We can’t take such a risk for nothing. Let alone raising the price, you might not be able to afford the reward I want this time.” “What do you want?” Li Gucheng asked.
“I want Dragon Star Iron!” “50 kilograms of Dragon Star Iron,” Wu Tong said in a deep voice.
Hearing this, Li Gucheng also frowned slightly.
The other party was indeed greedy.
Dragon Star Iron was extremely rare in the mortal world, and one or two catties was already a priceless treasure, let alone a hundred catties.
Young Li Wangye was such a wealthy person, but he had only obtained a little by chance.
However, given some time, if he was lucky, it was not hopeless. It was just that he might have to pay a lot of money.
Young Li Wangye had countless treasures in his hands, many of which were treasures that others lacked and could not obtain.
With this as a bargaining chip, he was not completely confident in raising a large amount of Dragon Star Iron.
The only question was whether it was worth it.
Thinking back to when Daoist Banhai appeared in the Yong Yue Mountain
Range and seemed to have come into contact with the remnant soul of the Qin Emperor, Li Gucheng gradually made up his mind.
“I need some time.” ” The next time we meet, I’ll pay you at least half, ” Li Gucheng said. ” We can ask Mr. Zun to vouch for the other half. I’ll definitely pay you back the next time we meet. ‘
“I trust you.” Wu Tong said.
After discussing some more details, the two of them bid farewell and left the hall.
After they disappeared, light flashed in the hall, and Mr. Zun and Ji Zhong appeared under the light.
Just as Ji Zhong left the hall, he was secretly intercepted by Chen Luoyang. However, Chen Luoyang had isolated Ji Zhong’s perception of the outside world, so he was unable to hear or see the transaction between Li Gucheng and wu Tong.
After Li Gucheng left, Chen Luoyang disguised himself as Mister Zun and reappeared. He once again made Ji Zhong consume a drop of Distant Sky Illusionary Mist and a Divine Tree leaf.
Once every ten days, this had already become a habit.
As Chen Luoyang looked after Ji Zhong, he calculated Li Gucheng’s actions.
After sending Ji Zhong off, he used the white jade bottle in his mind to update the information about Li Gucheng and Zhao Rimian.
As expected, Young Prince Li met Taoist Master Zhao.
Chen Luoyang didn’t need to think much to know that Li Gucheng was informing Zhao Rimian to leave Zhengyang City to create an opportunity for Daoist Banhai to assassinate him.
However, it was not easy to determine who Li Gucheng wanted to deal with. It depended on his next move.
In the West Qin Imperial Capital, Zhengyang City, in the residence of Young Li
Wangye, Li Gucheng once again looked sickly and weak. He looked at Zhao
Rimian and said,” The people below have reported that they have seen that Taoist in the Eastern Zhou Dynasty. I will go there with Taoist Master Zhao to investigate. ‘
“Your Highness is not feeling well. How can you continue to travel?” said Zhao Rimian.
Li Gucheng said, ” My subordinates will track down the Taoist’s whereabouts and report it to me. I will be the one to coordinate and contact him. Otherwise, it will be difficult to find him.
I also want to find out why this Taoist tried to assassinate me and who was behind it. Although my injuries haven’t healed yet, my movements are fine. Taoist Master Zhao, you don’t have to worry about me.
However, the cultivation of that Daoist cannot be underestimated. It is very likely that he has already become a Saint. We still need to be careful. It is best to contact the masters of your sect to secretly receive him, so as to avoid being killed by the other party.
Great Qin is currently in a troubled period, and we can’t send any experts to the Eastern Zhou Dynasty. We’ll have to trouble your sect.
Zhao Rimian thought for a moment and said,”Since that’s the case, I’ll have to trouble Your Highness. For safety’s sake, it’s best for Your Highness to act together with the seniors of our sect. I’ll contact the seniors of the sect right away.”
“That’s for the best.” Li Gucheng nodded.
Both sides immediately took action.
Zhao Shimian was in the light while Li Gucheng was in the dark. Everyone came to the border between Western Qin and Eastern Zhou.
When Taoist Master Little Zhao left West Qin and set foot on the surface of East Zhou, he passed by a valley of flames. Suddenly, a figure appeared in front of him.
The other party was like a ghost, coming and going without a trace. If he did not take the initiative to appear, Zhao Rimian would not have been able to detect his whereabouts.
Looking at the smiling sloppy Daoist in front of him, Zhao Rimian seemed to have understood something.”Honorable Sir, are you Taoist Banhai, the one who assassinated the West Qin Prince Li Gucheng?”
The sloppy Daoist smiled faintly. ” Assassination is assassination. However, This Penniless Priest had no intention of killing him from the very beginning. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be alive.
Today, I came to find you for the same thing. I didn’t mean to take your life. We are all from the same Dao Sect, so I only want you to suffer a little. Please don’t take offense.’
When he said this, he was aiming at the mountain ridge at the side.
Zhao Rimian’s heart skipped a beat.
An old Taoist priest appeared on the mountain ridge beside him. He looked at Taoist Banhai who was standing in front of Zhao Rimian and said, “”Daoist friend, you are very sensitive. I admit that I am inferior.”
The last half of Daoist Banhai’s sentence was not actually directed at Zhao Rimian, but at the old Daoist.
Zhao Rimian quickly bowed to the old Taoist priest.”Master.”
The old Taoist nodded and took a step down the mountain. He came to Zhao Rimian’s side and looked at Taoist Banhai.”May I know how my disciple has offended you, Fellow Daoist, for you to discipline him?”
“I have no grudges in the past and no grudges in the present. This Penniless Priest was just entrusted by someone.” “Don’t ask who it is.” Daoist Banhai smiled and waved his hand.
The old Taoist priest and Zhao Shimian found it unbelievable.
Zhao Rimian had originally come to find Daoist Banhai, but now, Daoist Banhai had taken the initiative to come to him. It was really strange.
They did not suspect that the person who ordered this sloppy Taoist priest was Li Gucheng. Otherwise, Li Gucheng would not have needed to remind the Green Bull Temple to gather more experts to set up an ambush.
“May I know who entrusted you?” “Since we are of the same path, why make things difficult for a junior?” The old Taoist priest said slowly.
Taoist Banhai smiled. ” If a Martial Saint is by his side, it’s fine if I don’t do anything. But since you’re here, I’ll naturally retreat.
Zhao Rimian followed beside his master in silence. The old Taoist priest
said, “In that case, I thank my old friend for giving me face.”
“Fellow Daoist, ” he said, looking at Daoist Banhai, “you look very unfamiliar.
Are you from the Qingvvei Realm or the Mountain and Sea Realm?”
Daoist Banhai, who had transformed into Chen Luoyang, smiled and said, “”Brother, you seem to have some misunderstanding about me. You think I’m a demon dragon in human form. Did you hear the rumors from the people of the Blue Dragon Island?
It seems that they had some misunderstanding when we met them in the Yong
Yue mountain range.”
The old Taoist priest smiled.
Of course, he couldn’t grasp the clues of the white jade dragon bone in Taoist Banhai’s body like Xu Peng, the Dragon King, but he could vaguely feel the Qi of a real dragon from Taoist Banhai, which was different from ordinary people.
Daoist Banhai smiled and raised his palm like a knife, gently slashing to the side.
A black saber Qi directly flattened the mountain ridge beside it!
At the same time, a faint dragon’s roar could be heard. The old Taoist priest and Zhao Rimian were dumbfounded.”This is…”
“This is the real answer,” said Daoist Banhai with a smile.
The old Taoist priest was silent for a moment before saying, “Fellow Daoist, are you willing to join my Green Bull Temple?”
Taoist Banhai said, ” The Green Bull Temple is the leader of the Red Dust Taoist Sect. I’ve always been looking forward to it. However, I’m used to being a wild crane and I prefer to wander around the world. I don’t like to stay in one place for a long time. Please forgive me. ‘
However, if the Green Bull Temple needs my help, I won’t refuse. We are of the same path, so we should help each other.”
He glanced at the silent Zhao Rimian and said with a smile, “”Why don’t we ask this little fellow daoist to contact us?”
