Chapter 185: Number 1 Female Assassin of the Shadow Sect |
As someone from a cultivation sect who has rebirthed, Lin Yi’s connections were obviously no worse than Ye Xuan’s.
But naturally, there are also downsides.
In the cultivation world, lies, scams, secrets, and plans to get rid of someone are much more often, and also much more cruel.
It’s either you kill me, or I kill you.
Cultivators are often found killed over some cultivation resources.
There are definitely traitors in the sect, so there aren’t many people whom Lin Yi could trust right now.
Linshuang is one of them.
Linshuang, full name Qiu Linshuang, is the top assassin of the Shadow Sect.
While young, she was clumsy and cute, but when she grew up, she became extremely cruel and heartless.
Of course, “Lin Yi” was his name in his past life.
This life, this name was Lin Yi. (It’s a joke here that can’t really be translated. In the raws, the words Yi are 2 different Chinese characters that are both pronounced the same way)
But during Lin Yi’s past life, he was rarely in the sect, even when he wasn’t on quests, so regardless of how much she liked him, she could only hide it in her heart.
Only at the end near his death did he finally accept her, whom he always treated like his little sister, as his woman.
…..
On the other side, Qin Tian was completely unaware of Lin Yi’s plans.
Because right now, he was…
“Spiritual stone? Mr. Qin, do you really have one?”
After hearing this over the phone, Dan Chenzi was beyond excited.
“Isn’t it just a spiritual stone? Do you need to overreact like this?”
In a five-star hotel, Qin Tian looked at the ostrich-egg-sized stone in his hand and was confused.
Other than feeling a slight wave of power from it, there was really nothing extraordinary about it.
Dan Chenzi nearly grew angry, “Mr. Qin, you aren’t familiar with the cultivation world, so you’re not aware of how precious this is…
“Other than to assist in cultivation, it can also be used in arrays and to help set then up…”
“Set up arrays?” Qin Tian raised his eyebrows. “What type of arrays?
“I’m not entirely sure. But what I know as a fact is that some strong cultivation sects all definitely have spiritual stones to make arrays. This thing, if used correctly, can empower an entire sect!”
“Oh? It seems this is a little useful after all.” Empower an entire sect? Looks like something I need.
“A little?” Dan Chenzi was nearly speechless.
This sect leader of his seems very lucky, but also unaware of what he just received.
An item as rare as the spiritual stone, in his words, was only “a little useful.”
“Alright then, since it’s so useful, I’ll send someone to deliver it to you.”
“Dont! Mr. Qin, I’ll send Xiao Zhou to come to get it from you. I can be more assured if it’s him.”
“Mm, I agree.” Qin Tian nodded. He knew that the Xiao Zhou he was talking about was Zhou Wen.
With Zhou Wen guarding it, he could indeed be more assured.
…
Although Qin Tian and Lin Yi only met once, they have already become sworn enemies over a stone.
This was natural of course, since one was a villain and the other was a protagonist.
Right now, Lin Yi was trying to find ways to get his stone back, and Qin Tian was doing more research on the two protagonists.
Qin Tian’s HQ was in Qiuming City, so being in Jiang City, he was much slower at gathering intel.
Five days has passed.
During these five days, Su Zhengyang and Su Yanran returned to Qiuming City.
Zhou Wen also took the stone to the secret training center in Qiuming City.
And Qin Tian has been mainly investigating how to deal with the protagonists.
Right now, there are 2.5 protagonists remaining in Qiuming City. Ye Xuan, Wang Hao, and Xiao Chen.
Of the three, Ye Xuan posed the highest threat.
The reason Qin Tian came to Jiang City was mainly to defeat him.
It was just that he didn’t expect after coming to Jiang City, he would run into two more protagonists!
And both of them are just as dangerous.
Especially this Lin Yi, he’ll be even more dangerous than Ye Xuan.
After all, no matter how strong Ye Xuan is, he alone is no stronger than being in the peak of the Acquired realm.
Although other members of his team were also talented, none were as strong as Ye Xuan.
When facing Ye Xuan alone, Qin Tian wasn’t very worried.
But now…
Lin Yi during his peak was a Grandmaster, almost a Great Grandmaster…
Furthermore, he has an entire sect behind him.
If he slowly regained his power, the consequences would be unimaginable.
He must get rid of him as soon as possible.
But how?
During these five days, he has been thinking of numerous ways.
Find him directly? He can’t kill him in public.
Assassinate him? He has too many Luck Points, and is strong himself.
Even if he were to go himself, it still probably wouldn’t be too easy.
If Lin Yi couldn’t win, he could just run away.
So… what could he do?
“Hm? Wait, something’s not right.”
Although Ye Xuan and Ye Chen were both at the wedding, he met one later than the other.
But Lin Yi and Chen Yang appeared both at the same time. So… could there be a connection between the two?
Thinking of this, Qin Tian quickly pulled out Chen Yang’s information.
Chen Yang also had over 4000 Luck Points.
Hopefully my 500 Villain Points don’t go to waste.
Luck Points didn’t mean strength points. It could only mean that one is very lucky, and could turn into a really scary figure eventually.
As Qin Tian pressed purchase, 500 Villain Points disappeared from his account.
Soon, Chen Yang’s information appeared in front of him.
“Huh…”
Qin Tian was stunned. “Chen Yang’s mother, is Blue Sun Sect’s former sect leader’s daughter?”
“And she’s the current sect leader of Blue Sun Sect???”
“Blue Sun Sect??? Blue Sun… isn’t that just…”
