My Master Knows It All

Chapter 1533: Chapter 356_6

“How is that possible?” the male cultivator instinctively said. “A being of such existence has absolutely no need to be an assassin.”

Even though the talismans from the Assassin Guild are miraculous, they only allow you to view tasks. Once a task is accepted, you can’t notify members of the Assassin Guild; you must complete the task yourself, sever the opponent’s head, and return to the guild to claim your reward.

That’s why it’s not uncommon for the guild to witness the same task being accepted by two teams, or even three teams.

The guild doesn’t care about how many accept the task, nor do they intervene if you fight amongst yourselves after accepting a task. As long as the task is completed, that’s all that matters.

The female cultivator also believed such a master would not take on such missions, but soon found herself surprised to discover that the task of assassinating the heart-eating demon had disappeared from the talisman.

With the task vanished, someone must have completed it.

So, that person really did join the Assassin Guild.

Though she couldn’t understand why someone of such existence would become an assassin, she knew that once the guild had an assassin this terrifying, the entire cultivation world would likely be on edge.

After Cao Zhen killed the heart-eating demon, he didn’t go to the guild himself but sent his avatar with the head to submit the task.

Yet, he was puzzled by the fact that even though he let one escape deliberately, there was no rumor about him spreading throughout the world.

With no choice, he continued his role as an assassin.

Moreover, he targeted only those in demonic sects. It’s just that those people were indeed scum, villains, allowing him to kill without any qualms.

He certainly couldn’t kill a good person for no reason.

“Have you heard? The Soul Pulling Demon of the Soul Breaking Demonic Sect is dead!”

“The Soul Pulling Demon? Isn’t he a being at the peak of Longevity Period? Moreover, among the current experts of the Soul Breaking Demonic Sect, he’s ranked in the top ten. Who killed him?”

“It’s said to be someone from the Weeping Blood Demon Sect!”

“I also heard that ten experts of the Longevity Period from the Burning Sky Demon Sect were killed, also reportedly by someone from the Weeping Blood Demon Sect.”

“And two elders from the Sect of Ten Thousand Beasts were killed by someone from the Weeping Blood Demon Sect!”

“It’s really unexpected that the Weeping Blood Demon Sect has such an expert. A hundred zhang Demonic Mountain; such a strong Longevity Period expert has never appeared in the history of the Eastern Province!”

“Indeed, now many are saying that person from the Weeping Blood Sect has reached the Longevity Period Limit.”

“Longevity Period Limit; previously, there were talks of Golden Core Stage Limit, but never has anyone mentioned Longevity Period Limit. This is the first time someone has talked about the Longevity Period Limit!”

“But that person truly is too terrifying!”

“However, what do you think the expert from the Weeping Blood Demon Sect is thinking? Such an existence, within the Weeping Blood Demon Sect, lacks no resources, so why become an assassin?”

“Being an assassin, maybe it’s purely because he enjoys slaughter? After all, everyone knows the Weeping Blood Demon Sect is extremely cruel and ruthless within demonic sects.”

“It’s understandable if he enjoys killing, but why does he keep targeting people from demonic sects? Their own Weeping Blood Demon Sect is also considered a demonic sect, and by killing people from major sects like that, isn’t he creating trouble for the Weeping Blood Demon Sect?”

Throughout the past year, a terrifying assassin’s legend has spread across the Eastern Province.

In this year, it’s unknown how many have died at the hands of this terrifying assassin.

Other assassins usually kill in various covert ways, but this person always makes kills openly with his mighty cultivation base, striking targets head-on, and leaving calmly afterward.

During this year’s time, it’s unknown how many tasks he has taken, how many times he has acted, never failing once!

People even agree that the assassin from the Weeping Blood Demon Sect is now the top expert in the world.

Yet everyone wonders why he wants to go around killing people, and there’s another thing: doesn’t the Weeping Blood Demon Sect have a grudge against the Hundred Peaks Sect? With such a master, why don’t they lead people to destroy the Hundred Peaks Sect?

This year’s time has also put the Weeping Blood Demon Sect in the spotlight.

Within the conference hall of the Weeping Blood Demon Sect, high-level members of demon sects are gathered, each with complexion darker, each angrier than the other!

“Those demonic sect people, one more foolish than the other!”

Among the crowd, an elderly man with a narrow face and extremely high cheekbones angrily said: “Earlier, members of the Sect of Ten Thousand Beasts asked what we meant, asked us why we killed their two elders, asked us if we want to go to war with them!”

And they said we should return their two strange beasts, the Hundred Chirping Bird and the Thunder Roc, entirely to them.

Return what? I don’t even know they have those two strange beasts! They claim our Weeping Blood Demon Sect killed their two elders!

They even said if not for our previous cooperation, they would have declared war on us already!

Are they mad? We have no reason to kill their people! That so-called Bleeding Tears Assassin is absolutely not one of our people from the Weeping Blood Demon Sect!”

“Not only the Sect of Ten Thousand Beasts; this past year, the so-called Bleeding Tears Assassin has killed too many people, many demonic sects came to us seeking an explanation!”

Among the people, a man with a face full of beard angrily said: “What explanation? That’s not our man, their people being killed has nothing to do with us!”

“But everyone claims the Bleeding Tears Assassin is one of ours, given he’s used many spells from our Weeping Blood Demon Sect. Especially the Blood Transformation into Evil Technique, our hidden secret technique which only our Sect Hierarch and the Love-Blood Devil can perform.”

Yet the person can execute spells like the Blood Transformation into Evil Technique—when we claim he’s not from our sect, no one believes!”

“Yes, and the opponent’s aura, that dense bloody scent, even their style of conduct, it absolutely seems like he’s from our Weeping Blood Demon Sect!”

“Sect Hierarch, what should we do now?”
