From Under One Person: Sincere Journey Through the Heavens

After all, Tang Jiaren was the sect leader's senior brother. He had mastered the Dan Shi technique. Although his attack range was limited, his numbers were extremely large, so he couldn't possibly be lying.

So--

Jiang Liu must die!

Someone capable of breaking the Dan Shi poison—if he were to clash with the Tang Clan in the future… no! The Tang Clan has already incurred his wrath! What will the Tang Clan do if he were to turn against them one day? Being able to break the Dan Shi poison proves that he can also break all of the Tang Clan's Qi poisons!

This is absolutely a being capable of shaking the foundation of the Tang Clan!

"That was a complete monster."

Tang Bingwen's wide-open right eye gradually calmed down. He sat back down and said to Tang Jiaren, "Senior brother, tell me more about Jiang Liu's abilities. Besides the rumored magnetism and mutated child's fate, what other methods does he have?"

"I don't know, but according to people in Yuhang City, they know Tai Chi, Bajiquan, can fly and escape from the earth, and can control the universe..."

"stop."

Tang Bingwen interrupted Tang Jiaren with a strange expression, "Senior brother, you're not joking with me, are you? You've actually already killed Jiang Liu?"

Flying through the sky and traversing the earth, controlling the universe...

Is Jiang Liu really a god?

“I wouldn’t joke around at a time like this.”

Tang Jiaren sighed and said to Tang Bingwen, "Sect Leader, if you had witnessed his cultivation level with your own eyes, you would also speak recklessly like I have."

Compared to us, he was practically a god or demon descended to earth! A celestial being or Buddha descended to the mortal realm!

To assassinate him, one would probably need to use poison—pure medicine, without any qi (vital energy)—or a firearm.

"Relying solely on supernatural abilities, mechanisms, and the ability to manipulate objects..."

The second half of the sentence—

Tang Jiaren did not elaborate.

However, Tang Bingwen and the other Tang Clan disciples who were eavesdropping outside the door all felt a chill run down their spines.

In other words, to assassinate Jiang Liu, they had to abandon the rules of the Tang Clan and learn the methods of assassination and murder from ordinary people.

That won't do.

indeed!

The Tang Clan disciples have a bad reputation and are even feared by others, but they also have their own unique pride and are unwilling to be the first to stick their necks out.

If one were to rely solely on actual drugs or poisons to carry out an assassination, and even bring a handgun—

The Tang Clan would inevitably be constantly watched by all the major sects and families in the world of supernatural beings, and might even be labeled as a heretical sect.

"It goes without saying that using poison is one thing, and it is true that some disciples in our sect use drugs when using their special abilities. In fact, the cultivation of Qi poison requires drugs. However, it is reprehensible to poison someone directly without using special abilities or even the method of Qi cultivation. Not to mention that using a gun to assassinate is even more against the rules."

Tang Bingwen rejected Tang Jiaren's proposal.

"However, Jiang Liu must be killed."

"We don't care about right or wrong, but since we've taken the money, we can't afford to fail. This is the foundation that allows the Tang Clan to stand firm in the world of supernatural beings."

That's all.

Tang Bingwen was silent for a moment, then looked into Tang Jiaren's eyes and asked, "Senior brother, are you still going to assassinate Jiang Liu?"

"go with!"

Tang Jiaren's eyes burned, and the corners of his mouth turned up. "How could I miss such an amazing person? Even if he doesn't let me go next time, I will still go and meet that living Buddha again!"

Li Ding also said, "I'll participate too!"

"No, you stay in the sect."

Tang Bingwen rejected Li Ding's suggestion to participate in the assassination attempt.

"Why? Sect Leader, I can do it!" Li Ding volunteered earnestly. "I'm not afraid of death!"

"It has nothing to do with whether someone lives or dies; it concerns the reputation and foundation of the Tang Clan."

Tang Bingwen viewed Jiang Liu as a calamity for the Tang Clan. "Although Jiang Liu boasted that he would give all of us two opportunities to assassinate him, if the entire Tang Clan were to mobilize, we would truly become a laughing stock in the entire world of supernatural beings."

"Jiang Liu simply doesn't take the Tang Clan seriously!" Li Ding gritted his teeth, but when he recalled the atmosphere that made his body tremble instinctively, a sense of fear inevitably arose in his heart, and his eyes trembled incessantly.

At this point, he had not yet truly understood the meaning of life and death.

This is also one of the reasons why Tang Bingwen stopped Li Ding from getting involved.

Given Li Ding's current state—

How can I assassinate him?

It might even restrict their actions.

"Sect Leader, how many people do you plan to send to assassinate Jiang Liu?" Tang Jiaren asked.

"Including you and me, there are ten people in total," Tang Bingwen said.

"Sect Leader, are you going to make a move too? What about the Tang Clan?" Tang Jiaren was shocked, not understanding why his junior brother was also planning to join in the fun.

If he had witnessed Jiang Liu firsthand, he wouldn't be surprised that Tang Bingwen acted this way.

For members of the Tang Clan, assassinating someone stronger than themselves is a form of self-challenge, but as the sect leader, the most important thing is to remain calm.

"I would naturally like to meet someone who is so highly regarded by you, senior brother."

Tang Bingwen's wrinkles twitched twice. "Also, didn't you say he gave our Tang Clan two chances? So even if the first one really went wrong, I won't die."

That's what they said—

Not to mention Tang Jiaren, even Tang Bingwen himself didn't believe it. As the head of the Tang Clan, simply maintaining the clan's existing operations wasn't enough...

Immediately afterwards, Tang Bingwen summoned all the Tang Clan disciples and selected four people: Tang Jiaren, Gao Yingcai, Tang Tongbi, and Tang Bingwen himself.

The remaining six were chosen by drawing lots, and the final selections were: Du Fosong, Tang Houren, Tang Jian, Tang An, Tang Shiying, and Lu Huizhong.

"Were there no disciples skilled in mechanisms who were chosen?"

Tang Bingwen frowned as he looked at the six people who had drawn lots, but then relaxed and said, "Well, it's not good to fight in the city. It's difficult to set up traps, and there's a chance of harming innocent people. If we don't get them, so be it."

Afterwards, Tang Bingwen said, "Gentlemen, you will now accompany me to Yuhang in the Jiangzhe region to assassinate Jiang Liu."

You have two chances.

The opponent's cultivation level was remarkable, and their strength was formidable, shattering our preconceived notion that those who were poisoned by the pill were doomed to die.

After saying this, he addressed the other disciples who had not drawn lots: "If we fail twice and die at Jiang Liu's hands, this mission will be cancelled. If we see Jiang Liu or his relatives and friends in the future, we must not cause trouble for them, nor seek revenge, nor will we have any revenge to take."

This is also one of the principles that Tang Clan disciples must follow.

After all, they were only doing assassinations to make a living, regardless of whether they were righteous or evil, so they had no one to blame but themselves for being killed by their targets.

Other disciples may continue to take on the same missions to assassinate the same target, but they must not let their own emotions get in the way during the mission.

Can Tang Clan disciples assassinate others, but others cannot kill Tang Clan disciples in return?

That doesn't make sense!

If the Tang Clan were to act so unreasonably, they would be attacked by all the other sects and families in the world of supernatural beings.

therefore.

If these ten people really die, the rest of the Tang Clan can seek revenge, but they must not carry out the assassination as Tang Clan disciples. They must seek revenge against Jiang Liu in their own names at the Confucian Society or the Ghost Hand Wang Cai Opera Troupe, and they must not kill innocent people indiscriminately, but only target Jiang Liu.

Otherwise, the other disciples of the Tang Clan must personally clean up the mess and must not cover it up, until Jiang Liu is satisfied.

"Yes, Sect Leader!"

The remaining Tang Clan disciples who did not draw lots responded.

"Tang Gao, Tang Wanru, you two will temporarily manage the Tang Sect while I am away from the sect."

Tang Gao and Tang Wanru are both veterans of the Tang Clan and possess considerable strength. The former is a pharmacist in the Tang Clan, while the latter has an extremely solid foundation in Tang Clan techniques and applies them with great flexibility. With the two of them in charge of the Tang Clan, Tang Bingwen feels quite at ease.

"Sect Leader, shouldn't we arrange for someone else to cultivate the Pill Devouring technique?"

Tang Wanru was somewhat worried that the inheritance of Dan Shi would be cut off.

Apart from the Tang Clan elders who are too old to walk, there are not many people in the Tang Clan who know Dan Shi now. There are only Tang Bingwen, Tang Jiaren, and Tang Houren, but all three of them are going to assassinate Jiang Liu.

Those who inherit the Dan Shi technique have all observed others practicing it, but if the sect leader and his group fail, will future generations still choose to practice Dan Shi?

"We'll talk about it when we get back."

However, Tang Bingwen's thinking on this matter was very simple: if they were all wiped out this time, it would be irrelevant whether his disciples could still master the Tang Clan's Dan Shi technique.

Without him.

Jiang Liu can solve it!

The myth of Dan Shi —

Jiang Liu could destroy them!

Tang Bingwen will remain cautious until he has personally confirmed this.

such as:

Jiang Liu may have used some kind of strange illusion technique to deceive his senior brother!

The possibility that the Ghost Hand Wang Cai Opera Troupe has a woman who truly knows ancient magic tricks cannot be ignored!

If Jiang Liu can easily neutralize the Dan Shi (a type of internal energy), and he can't kill Jiang Liu—

It would be best to prevent disciples from practicing this dangerous method that carries a high risk of death.

The Tang Clan's killing techniques cannot be limited to Dan Shi. By mastering and flexibly applying the other techniques of the Tang Clan, their killing efficiency can be no less than that of Dan Shi.

After all, the purpose of the Tang Clan disciples' cultivation is different from that of the monks and Taoists. Although they also have the idea of ​​pursuing a higher realm, Tang Bingwen knows that it is not for reaching the heavens. Such a realm is not something that ordinary people like them, who can kill without asking right or wrong, without asking for reasons, without asking for good or evil, can dream of.

and so!

If the Dan Shi technique can truly be broken by Jiang Liu, and no one in the Tang Clan can kill Jiang Liu, then future Tang Clan disciples will not need to put themselves in a life-or-death situation in order to cultivate killing skills.

Especially in these chaotic times, if a disciple with exceptional talent fails, the Tang Clan may face a talent shortage and become history...

Seeing that the sect leader had made up his mind, Tang Gao and Tang Wanru exchanged a glance and could only agree, but in their hearts they were already thinking about who should cultivate Dan Shi.

Yang Lie!

This was the most outstanding disciple among his cohort. He was the eldest son of a landlord family at the foot of the mountain, but instead of inheriting the family business, he joined the Tang Clan to cultivate.
