My path to immortality began with my posting to guard Dawancun.

Chapter 103 Achieved
"It's all talk and no action. Once it's discovered, it won't be you who die!"

“Even if we brothers fall, it will probably be difficult to trace it back to you.”

"After all, since you are meeting with masks on, we don't know your identities."

"In the end, it is we brothers who will bear the wrath of the Shen family of Tiannan!"

The figure in the shadows spoke coldly.

The other shadowy figures also let out a cold laugh.

"So you mean you're refusing?"

in the darkness,

The masked figure spoke in a voice that was neither male nor female, like a machine, and the face covered by the mask was expressionless.

But from the tone of his voice...

You could clearly hear the person frowning.

These people are lawless cultivators.

Originally, I spent a month gathering information in advance and then carefully selected the target.

If even they don't agree,
That's trouble.

Moreover, there is a possibility that this could leak information about the planned attack on Dawan Village.

"That's not entirely true."

"What do you mean?"

"You're not giving us enough; we need to pay more!"

"The biggest threat comes from the Shen family of Tiannan, but in reality, the strength of Dawan Village is not strong. The rumored strength of that brat named Shen Changchuan is only around the fourth or fifth level of Qi Refining. With your strength, dealing with him is a piece of cake. Eight hundred spirit stones is already quite a lot!"

The masked figure's voice was relatively flat.
They were haggling over the price.

However, he felt a slight sense of relief.

"Heh, I've heard rumors that Old Ghost Song has fallen to them!"

The figure in the shadows let out a cold laugh.

This is not something he made up.

There are indeed such rumors circulating outside.

After killing Old Ghost Song on his way back from Wujiaji, Shen Changchuan, out of concern for his own safety, did not want his strength to spread, or even be heard about by the First Madam in Tiannan City.

This ensured that the entourage remained silent and did not reveal the specific details of the battle.

But at the same time,
In order to enhance the deterrent power of Dawan Village, so that no one, no matter who, dares to cause trouble in the future.

Shen Changchuan also needed to use Song Laogui's achievements as a stepping stone to intimidate other cultivators.

So Shen Changchuan had everyone give the same story, and after they finished giving their testimonies, he released some edited information to the outside world.

First of all, Song Laogui did indeed fall into their hands.

Secondly,

The actual combat process naturally differs significantly from reality.

That's roughly it.

Shen Changchuan is not the only cultivator in Dawan Village; there are others behind him.

They could be family guards, or they could be other senior friends from Tiannan City.

But regardless of their identity
Anyway,

The strength behind Dawancun is not weak.

Since the rumors about the Azure Origin Water Grass spread, a large number of cultivators from the outside world have flocked to the borderlands.

The spread of news that Song Laogui had fallen into the hands of Dawancun also played a role to some extent.

of course,

Those who have faith
Some people don't believe it.

I think it's just bluffing.

And among those present, it was undoubtedly the latter.

"Hmph, the story of Old Ghost Song is just their own opinion. They haven't seen him alive or dead. Maybe they saw him being killed by a master on the way and then used that feat to intimidate others?"

The masked figure spoke disdainfully.

As an envoy, I personally visited Dawancun. The so-called guards behind them are mostly fictitious.

Otherwise, at that meeting, they would most likely have invited someone out to maintain order.

"In that case, please find someone else!"

The figure in the shadows didn't waste any words and spoke directly.

Actually, he didn't believe that rumor either.
Or rather, even if they believed it, they wouldn't care too much. After all, according to the rumors circulating, the person behind it was only a guard at around the seventh level of Qi Refining.

With their numerical advantage, dealing with them was not a big problem for the brothers.

It's one thing to think something in your heart,

Negotiating the price is a different story.

Naturally, they would find all sorts of reasons to raise prices.

"Enough with the nonsense, how much do you want, sir?"

The masked figure simply spoke up.

"Two thousand spirit stones, and you must use your resources to find someone for us!"

"Two thousand spirit stones, you really know how to take advantage of someone's misfortune!"

"So, will you accept it or not?"

"can!"

"But as for mobilizing our forces to find someone, I'm afraid we are powerless to do so. We don't have any great power, otherwise we wouldn't have asked you to deal with that brat."

The masked figure seemed very displeased at being blackmailed and spoke coldly.

"Hmph! The Mutual Aid Alliance, which has occupied forty-nine villages in the borderlands, is powerless? That's a huge joke!"

in the darkness,

As soon as this word comes out,
The surroundings suddenly fell silent.
A deathly silence.

You can hear a pin drop.

Beneath the masked figure's concealed face, pupils shrank to pinpoints, and a storm raged within their mind!

How did they know who I was?
Will this cause big trouble within the alliance?!

In a flash,

Many thoughts flashed through his mind.

"I don't understand what you mean."

"Hmph, what do you think has enabled us brothers to live so carefree until now?"

The figure in the shadows also let out a cold snort.

"I don't care who you are, just help me find someone's whereabouts."

Who are you looking for?

The masked figure remained silent for a long time.

He finally spoke up and asked.

"Lei Boyun, known to outsiders as a beast tamer, possesses a magical beast-taming technique and can ride monsters such as the Ironclad Rhinoceros, Blood Raven, Gale Wolf, and Yellow Mountain Tiger."

"It appeared in Qingcheng two months ago, and after hearing about the news of Biyuan Water Grass here, it rushed over ahead of time."

"We are very interested in his secret technique of beast taming, but unfortunately we haven't been able to find any trace of him recently."

"Pay two thousand spirit stones first. After it's all over, you can let us know about that person."

There was another moment of silence.

After a short while,

"Okay, deal!"

"But you have to promise to at least kill that brat named Shen Changchuan!"

"Furthermore, you must not disclose any of our information!"

The masked figure's gaze cast shimmering light in the darkness.

"Don't worry, we're professionals!"

"A mere Qi Refining Stage 4 or 5, a brat only 14 or 15 years old, dealing with him is a piece of cake!"

The figure in the darkness spoke disdainfully.
