The tip of the blade blazed as bright and dazzling as the stars.

Instantly, Remnant Wind’s expression dramatically changed and an ear-piercing shriek came out his mouth. He threw himself to one side with incredible speed.

Unfortunately for him, the blade moved much faster than him. It slashed off one of his arms in a quick motion and sent blood spewing everywhere like a waterfall.

“Argh!” Remnant Wind screamed out in agony, his face beyond pale, to the point of translucent.

Rumble—

At the same time, Lin Xun rushed out from the ground and swung his blade once again without the slightest hesitation.

He hated the assassin who had repeatedly attacked him from behind, so he immediately launched his strongest attack—Star-Gather!

A blade cry resounded like the sounds of heaven. Then, a blade slashed across the air in a majestic manner like it was capable of wiping out everything in the world.

After Lin Xun broke through to the Human Dipper Stage, the Star-Gather had also undergone earth-shaking changes, becoming twice as powerful as before.

Under those circumstances, it was understandable that Lu Zhong, an Earth Dipper cultivator, sustained severe injuries and died in the end.

Lin Xun performed the same attack once again. As he brought his blade down, it felt as though millions of stars were descending and drowning everything. The power was too terrifying.

Remnant Wind let out another miserable shriek. His figure transformed into a blurry gray image as he made the decision to flee.

But where could he flee to?

The mighty power contained in the blade made him feel like a lonely boat in the vast ocean. In the blink of an eye, violent raging waves had completely enveloped him.

With a bang, Remnant Wind’s body blasted across the air like a tossed sandbag and landed several dozen feet away on the street. He coughed up blood as he cried tragically.

“Who...who are you?”

Seeing Lin Xun charge towards him again, Remnant Wind couldn’t help but scream in horror. He struggled and tried to force himself up but he had already lost his left arm. Moreover, he had already been severely wounded once by the Star-Gather move and his body was beginning to show signs of collapse both inside and outside.

The corners of Lin Xun’s lips curled in an imperceptible mocking smile as he squatted down. He carefully studied Remnant Wind and exclaimed, “I didn’t expect you to have such powerful assassination techniques since you’re only at the Human Dipper Stage. What a surprise!”

“Same to you. You killed Lu Zhong who was at the Earth Dipper Stage. Only very few youngsters at the Human Dipper Stage could achieve such a feat in the empire.” Remnant Wind panted, his eyes filled with resentment, shock, bitterness and anger.

“I’m not complimenting you. I’m just very curious how you cultivated your archery skills,” said Lin Xun ruminatively.

He was indeed very curious. He could tell that Remnant Wind’s cultivation was at most average and that the assassin would be no match for him in a head-on battle even without him using the Star-Gather move.

However, Remnant Wind had mastered an extremely powerful archery technique. From the skills that Remnant Wind had shown in his repeated attempts to assassinate him. Lin Xun could tell that Remnant Wind could easily assassinate an Earth Dipper cultivator like Lu Zhong.

Who would have thought that panic flashed across Remnant Wind’s eyes when Lin Xun said those words? Then, he said threateningly, “Don’t talk nonsense. Kill me if you dare! But I warn you that my older sister is now serving an influential figure in the Forbidden City in the empire. You wouldn’t be able to live for long if she knew that I’m dead!”

Lin Xun snorted coldly and pierced Remnant Wind’s throat with his blade in one quick, clean stabbing motion.

Remnant Wind’s eyes went wide with disbelief and shock. He couldn’t believe that Lin Xun would really dare to kill him.

With a thud, he collapsed on the ground without a single word and was completely dead.

“You threatened me. If I didn’t kill you, I would be seen as a coward…”

Lin Xun yanked out his blade and was about to leave when a thought struck his mind. He searched Remnant Wind’s body, curious to know what kind of bow and arrow the man used for archery assassination.

However, Lin Xun was surprised to find that there wasn’t a single coin on Remnant Wind let alone a bow or weapon.

How could that be?

Lin Xun frowned but as he inadvertently swept a glance across Remnant Wind’s eyes and discovered that his left eye emitted a bizarre gray light, which was clearly different from his right eye.

Lin Xun immediately gouged out his left eye with a blade and then he let the heavy rain wash away the blood around it. Only then did he clearly see that the eyeball was a gray bead the size of a pigeon egg.

The bead was so light it felt like a cotton ball in his hand. Upon a closer look, he noticed a cryptic and violent aura pulsing beneath the gray surface.

Lin Xun shuddered inwardly when he laid eyes on the gray bead. A chill inexplicably spread throughout his body. It was as though an ancient demon was hiding inside the bead and staring into his soul.

“The noise came from there!”

At that moment, a yell from the distance awakened Lin Xun from his thoughts. He gave up on investigating and quickly threw the gray bead into the little Xumi Ring.

Lin Xun’s eyes flashed a cold glint as he glanced at the corpses of Remnant Wind and Lu Zhong on the ground. With a flash, he disappeared into the rainy night while carrying two corpses.

Swoosh—

Before long, a group of cultivators arrived where he was.

“There really was a big battle here just now. The target should be nearby!” A cultivator exclaimed in excitement as he surveyed the collapsed buildings and blood-stained streets.

“Let’s go!”

The other cultivators raced forward, eager to get into action.

Only a man in a dark green robe remained behind. He stood there in silence, examining and analyzing the battle scene.

Rain bucketed down but an invisible force deflected them before they neared the man. The man’s clothes remained untainted and clean. He seemed very unusual.

It was Chang Henshui, a cultivator of Jadelight Pavilion. He possessed the strength of the Earth Dipper Stage and had an even greater status than Lu Zhong among the cultivators of Jadelight Pavilion.

As time passed, the frown on Chang Henshui’s face deepened and his expression grew serious. The many unbelievable traces left at the battlefield made him speculate that Lu Zhong was most likely dead!

Too terrifying!

Lu Zhong was an Earth Dipper cultivator from the military and had fought hundreds of battles. He was shrewd, ruthless and sharp-witted. Chang Henshui even believed that only Lu Zhong was worthy of his attention among all the cultivators of Jadelight Pavilion.

However, such a master had died in the hands of a teenager at the Human Dipper Stage. This was too unbelievable.

Additionally, Chang Henshui noticed the traces left by an assassin. It was everywhere and hard to not notice.

After analyzing the trajectories of the fired arrows, Chang Henshui was even more baffled. The assassin’s techniques were unquestionably sophisticated, but he still failed in the end.

“Lin Xun…Lin Xun…”

Chang Henshui repeated the name in his mind. It was as though the name had some sort of magical power. For the first time that night, he felt some sort of pressure with the operation.

He couldn’t quell the pressure. He was even debating on whether or not to continue to hunt down Lin Xun.

In the end, he sighed inwardly and continued forward.

He just worked for Jadelight Pavilion. From the outside, it looked like he had a high status, but he knew that he was at most seen as a vicious dog of Jadelight Pavilion.

If a vicious dog escaped, it would no doubt be abandoned by the owner or killed!

This was the misery of being born in a poor family. Regardless of how high a cultivation base one possessed, one still had to rely on a rich and powerful family to succeed in life.

Chang Henshui was no longer young. He was well aware how cruel the world was. The entire empire was a cage controlled by the imperial family and the upper-class families. If he wanted to survive in the prison, he had to be obedient like a caged bird!

Chang Henshui somehow admired Lin Xun in regards to that night’s operation. At least the youngster, who is also from a poor family, dares to fight against the rich and powerful forces and doesn't succumb to fate.

“Of course the operation has to continue but everyone makes mistakes. Even if they learn about this, they can’t blame me for not doing enough…”

Chang Henshui continued forward, but no one knew that he had already given up on dealing with Lin Xun.

……

Bang!

In a grand and magnificent hall, the huge door was pushed open.

“Big Brother Fei, our opportunity has come!”

Yao Susu rushed into the hall, her face alight with excitement.

“What opportunity?”

Lian Fei who was cultivating quietly suddenly opened his eyes and asked in puzzlement.

“The situation is much better than we thought. More than a dozen of the major forces in Haze City have already launched an operation to assassinate Lin Xun an hour ago!” Yao Susu beamed with joy but in the end she couldn’t help but sigh, “Unfortunately, Haze City isn’t a territory of my Yao Family. I received the news a step too late, otherwise we could have planned ahead. “

“Dozens of major forces joined hands to deal with Lin Xun?”

Lian Fei’s eyes suddenly lit up and he rose to his feet. “Then Lin Xun will surely die without the help of the Rain Listener House! Let’s go. Let’s go take a look!”

“No!”

Yao Susu stopped him. “Don’t forget what I said before, a rich person doesn’t place oneself in danger. Although dozens of forces had been dispatched together and the cultivators sent out were all fierce characters, the real descendants haven’t acted. The reason for that must be obvious to you: It’s not worth it for the descendants of the rich and powerful sects and factions being dispatched to deal with a little Lin Xun.”

Lian Fei frowned, saying irritably, “The way the rich and powerful forces work is so damn annoying.”

Yao Susu smiled. “This is the reason why the powerful families and sects can remain standing to this day. Why do things that others can do for you? If something unexpected happens, it won’t be the descendants of the rich and powerful families that die, isn’t that right?”

Lian Fei said impatiently, “Susu, tell me what we should do.”

Yao Susu drew a deep breath and said with blazing eyes, “It’s very simple. Tell Rain Listener House to send out assassins. Didn’t they demand 10,000 gold coins? As long as they guarantee that Lin Xun will be killed, there’s no harm in giving them a reward of 10,000 gold coins!”
