Only at the Mahayana Stage Does the Reversal System Appear - Chapter 69
Chapter 69 Four Plans A, B, C, and D
At this moment, the Deputy Pavilion Master was in despair.
He felt he might become the last Pavilion Master of the Heavenly Killing Pavilion.
Just as the Pavilion Master had told everyone, “We’re all here to make a living, don’t sacrifice yourself,” the Heavenly Killing Pavilion had a corresponding motto, displayed prominently in the lobby.
Small business, honest operation, no killing in the Tribulation Crossing Stage.
Whoever issued this mission is blind! We won’t even kill those in the Tribulation Crossing Stage, so why kill Jiang Renhuang, a Mahayana Stage cultivator, with our heads in our hands!
The Deputy Pavilion Master stormed down, seething with murderous intent. He wanted to see who had the audacity to issue such a life-threatening mission!
At this moment, the disguised Jiang Li was grumbling.
“I’m telling you, Jiang Renhuang is a ruthless murderer, and he enjoys insulting other people’s wives and daughters in public. I have a friend whose wife and daughter were treated this way by Jiang Renhuang!”
“How many spirit stones does it take to kill Jiang Renhuang? You tell me, I’ve got them all!” Jiang Li feigned a sense of suffering, ready to fight him to the death. He continuously produced top-grade spirit stones, leaving the assassins salivating.
This was a fat sheep; even the most expensive order the Heavenly Killing Pavilion had accepted didn’t yield this many spirit stones. If they could kill him…
“Shut up!” The Deputy Pavilion Master, upon descending downstairs, heard Jiang Li’s outrageous words and was terrified. “How could Jiang Renhuang tolerate slander?”
“Really not accepting the mission?” Jiang Li narrowed his eyes and produced more spirit stones. “As long as you go and kill Jiang Renhuang, whether you succeed or fail, these are all yours.”
Even the Deputy Pavilion Master was shocked by Jiang Li’s boldness. Where did such a wealthy man come from? Did he have a mine of top-grade spirit stones at home?
“No! Get lost!” The Deputy Pavilion Master hesitated for a moment, then shuddered, remembering the Immortal Artifact Appreciation Conference, when Jiang Renhuang had fought a fierce battle, sending the artifacts fleeing in panic.
Kill Jiang Renhuang?
Tiansha Pavilion wasn’t the Suicide Pavilion.
Jiang Li sighed, slowly collecting the top-grade spirit stones one by one into his storage ring, as if showing them to the assassins.
After Jiang Li left, a top-tier assassin quietly asked the Deputy Pavilion Master, “Want to do something?”
The Deputy Pavilion Master slapped him on the back of the head. “Stupid! If we kill our employer, Tianji Tower will be able to spread the news around the next day as free information!”
The very mention of the Deputy Pavilion Master of Tianji Tower infuriated him. He wondered what kind of luck Jiang Renhuang had gotten to invite Jiang Renhuang to Tianji Tower for an inspection.
Why didn’t they, Tiansha Pavilion, have such good luck?
After leaving Tiansha Pavilion, Jiang Li chose to take dark paths. He walked for a long time without seeing any assassins tempted by the money.
“Are assassins so focused on professionalism these days?”
Jiang Li knew it wouldn’t be easy to get the Tiansha Pavilion to kill him. “That’s why they say system-assigned missions aren’t easy to complete.”
Jiang Li revealed his true identity and returned to the Tiansha Pavilion, frightening the Deputy Pavilion Master to his knees. He suspected Jiang Renhuang knew someone had just issued a mission to kill him and suspected the Pavilion had accepted it.
“Human Emperor, in all honesty, we at the Tiansha Pavilion wouldn’t dare accept a mission to kill you! If you don’t believe me, ask that jerk just now. We didn’t even take a single Spirit Stone!”
Seeing the Deputy Pavilion Master poised to prove his innocence, Jiang Li said impatiently, “That person was me. I want to experience the feeling of being assassinated. Come on, kill me!”
Hearing Jiang Li’s words, the Deputy Pavilion Master trembled with fear, daring no action. He had never heard of anyone wanting to experience assassination. Jiang Renhuang was clearly looking for an excuse to eliminate the Tiansha Pavilion!
“Kill me now!” Jiang Li shouted fiercely, his voice like thunder, his blood boiling like a vast ocean.
The Deputy Pavilion Master, in the late stage of fusion, felt like a small boat in danger of capsizing at any moment.
He understood Jiang Li’s intention: if he didn’t act, he would be the one to die!
Forced to act, the Deputy Pavilion Master slunk silently into the shadows. The master assassins witnessed the Deputy Pavilion Master’s descent, but could find no trace, and were filled with fear.
Was this the fusion stage’s stealth assassination? How terrifying!
Like a shark, the Deputy Pavilion Master swam in the shadows beneath Jiang Li’s feet, searching for a chance to strike.
Suddenly, sensing Jiang Li’s momentary daze, he struck decisively, darting from behind and attempting to sever Jiang Li’s neck with a dagger made of shadow!
Crack!
The dagger shattered, leaving Jiang Li unharmed. The Deputy Pavilion Master, his strike unsuccessful, followed the assassin’s principles and retreated to a distance, never striking again.
But no system notification sounded.
Jiang Li carefully examined the mission and decided the key might be dodging. He ordered expressionlessly, “Kill me again.”
The Deputy Pavilion Master felt as if the previous attack had exhausted all his courage. Killing the Human Emperor, and the most powerful Jiang Human Emperor at that. He could brag about it forever… and be hunted by the Human Emperor’s supporters forever. Forget it, forget it.
Now, hearing Jiang Li’s unquestionable command, he had no choice but to use up all his courage for the rest of his life and once again unleash his assassination.
This time, Jiang Li dodged, but there was still no system notification.
Jiang Li pondered, then asked with some annoyance, “You don’t really want to kill me?”
The Deputy Pavilion Master flattered, “You’re not saying that, Human Emperor. I’m killing you from the bottom of my heart.”
He felt like slapping himself twice. He simply followed Jiang Li’s words without thinking. How could he just say such a thing? What if the Human Emperor thought it was true?
Jiang Li glanced at him, knowing full well that the Deputy Pavilion Master didn’t intend to kill him.
The system likely required the assassins of the Tiansha Pavilion to have the intention to assassinate him. Pretending to
kill him didn’t count, which made it difficult. Plan A, paying him to kill him, failed. Plan B, tricking him into killing him, failed. Plan C, forcing the assassins to kill him, failed. Jiang Li could only proceed with Plan D.
He pretended to leave, but in reality, he was invisible and searching for the Tiansha Pavilion’s latest assassination plans. His gaze focused, and he found a few familiar faces.
“Assassination of Qin Luan (Note: Early Jindan Stage) and Yuan Wuxing (Note: Early Yuanying Stage). Location: Longyin City, Tianyuan Dynasty. Recommended assassin B.”
“Read.”
As for the reason for the assassination and who issued the mission, Tiansha Pavilion doesn’t care, and Jiang Li naturally can’t find out from here.
“Go find Yuan Wuxing and see if the killer will assassinate me. Doesn’t Tiansha Pavilion like to kill a few more people the most?” Jiang Li said to himself, and this time he really left Tiansha Pavilion.
…
“We must vigorously publicize what happened today!” said the deputy pavilion master.
“Publicize your assassination of Jiang Renhuang?” asked the gold medal killer who had been cut before. As expected, he was cut again.
“Idiot, of course it means that Jiang Renhuang inspected our Tiansha Pavilion, gave us important instructions, and kindly taught us the assassination technique!”
The deputy pavilion master thought for a while and continued: “That’s not enough. Tianji Tower has a painting, and we must have a painting too.”
Thanks to the book friend This Quan is a little sweet for the reward
