Dragon God Supreme

Chapter 401: Chapter 401 Hiring a Hitman Chapter 401: Chapter 401 Hiring a Hitman “Palace Master Ji, the people have been brought here as requested,”

In Xiaoyao Palace, within the Palace where Ji Tianshan resided, a guard reported respectfully.

“Oh? Excellent! Bring them in quickly!” Ji Tianshan’s face lit up with ecstasy, and then he ordered, “You may all leave us now!”

“Yes!” The maid and the guard at the door withdrew respectfully.

A moment later, the guard ushered three middle-aged men into the grand hall, all dressed identically in black brocade garments, their faces bearing a touch of arrogance.

The trio’s cultivation was extremely powerful, two at the First Layer of the Heavenly Human Realm and one at the peak of the Ninth Level of the Tianyuan Realm, radiating a fearsome murderous aura. Such fierce strength indeed warranted their arrogance.

“Palace Master Ji, what business might you have for us three brothers?” the leading man asked indifferently, without beating around the bush.

Ji Tianshan looked over the three with a smile and said cheerfully, “Sky Wolf, Sky Tiger, Sky Leopard, the three great assassins renowned throughout the heavens, I have long admired your reputations. Please, take a seat.”

In the presence of the three, Ji Tianshan was also quite polite.

The three didn’t hold back, unafraid even of Xiaoyao Palace–given their strength, even the Palace Master of Xiaoyao Palace would not be their match.

The trio were known as the three great assassins of the heavenly domain, a fearsome presence that made all forces, large or small, tremble.

Of course, this excluded the six major forces and some other powerful factions.

The mantra ‘take the money to eliminate calamities for others’ described these types of people–they took money to kill on behalf of others!

There were always those in the world who wished to remove certain enemies, but found it inconvenient to act directly or worried about the repercussions. In such times, they turned to assassins.

Offer enough gold coins, and they would commit murder for hire!

Moreover, even in death, an assassin would not disclose the identity of their employer! Safe and reliable!

“I know your time is precious, so I’ll get straight to the point. I want you to help me kill someone,” Ji Tianshan stated seriously.

“Palace Master Ji should be aware of our rules,” Sky Leopard spoke indifferently.

“Ten million gold coins for one life,” Ji Tianshan nodded.

“Whose life?” the lead man, Sky Wolf, inquired.

“Feng Wuchen.”

Upon hearing this, the three middle-aged men paused slightly, and Sky Tiger exclaimed in astonishment, “Could it be the same Feng Wuchen who has challenged many talented individuals from various factions?”

“Correct, it is he,” Ji Tianshan nodded, a vicious killing intent flashing in his eyes as he said, “As long as you three can get rid of Feng Wuchen for me, gold coins will not be an issue.”

“Did Palace Master Ji invite us here just for Feng Wuchen? You seem to be quite wary of him. With Xiaoyao Palace’s strength, killing Feng Wuchen should not be difficult,” Sky Tiger said, frowning slightly.

Sky Leopard stated indifferently, “I’ve heard that at the level of the Fifth Layer of the Tianyuan Realm, Feng Wuchen defeated the Junior Sect Master of the Holy Sun Sect, who was at the Eighth Layer. His strength is indeed frightening.”

“I’ve heard you only worry about taking money for the kill, never inquiring too much into the details,” Ji Tianshan said with a slight frown, clearly unwilling to reveal more about Feng Wuchen.

Feng Wuchen was the teacher of Zhang Junlan, the young master of the Zhang family of the Wuji Domain and also the number one Artifact Refiner on the Mainland, possessing an extraordinary status. Not to mention the three assassins, even the most distinguished forces on the Mainland would not dare to offend him lightly.

If the three assassins knew of the terrifying background behind Feng Wuchen, would they dare make their move?

“We do know a thing or two about Feng Wuchen. Please prepare the ten million gold coins, Palace Master Ji, as after the deed is done, we will bring you his head,” Sky Wolf stated dispassionately.

“Money is not an issue, but I am not sure where Feng Wuchen currently is,” Ji Tianshan said.

“Palace Master Ji needn’t worry about that,” Sky Wolf said with confidence.

“Straight to the point!” Ji Tianshan’s face beamed with a smile, and with a wave of his hand, a Storage Ring flew out, and he laughed heartily, “Here are five million gold coins. After the deed is done, I will deliver the remaining ten million!”

“Palace Master Ji can look forward to the good news,” Sky Wolf said as he walked out of the grand hall, not even looking back.

Watching the Sky Wolf and his two companions leave, Ji Tianshan’s face revealed a sinister cold smile, “Feng Wuchen, I don’t care who you are, offending me means you only have one path left — death.”

It was precisely because Ji Tianshan feared Feng Wuchen’s powerful background and was concerned about involving Xiaoyao Palace that he enlisted the Sky Wolf trio.

With the Sky Wolf trio taking action, even if Feng Wuchen were killed, no one would suspect Ji Tianshan.

…

At the Heavenly Fire Mountain Villa, Feng Wuchen and Yi Tianqing were in the Ninth Level of the Nine Layers Qiankun Tower.

Yi Tianqing had absorbed a massive energy sphere, and Feng Wuchen was currently using the Art of Dividing Spirit to help him refine and absorb it; meanwhile, Feng Wuchen was also cultivating.

Yi Tianqing’s face was full of shock, staring dumbfoundedly at the twelve Primordial Spirits around them.

Six Primordial Spirits were refining for Yi Tianqing, and six Primordial Spirits were refining for Feng Wuchen.

“Dan Emperor, what… what kind of Divine Skills is this?” Yi Tianqing asked in astonishment.

Before Feng Wuchen had the chance to answer, the expression on Yi Tianqing’s face changed dramatically again.

The massive and pure energy that had been absorbed within his body was being refined at an appallingly terrifying speed.

“How… how is this possible…” Yi Tianqing was so frightened that he trembled all over.

Such a terrifying speed of refinement had never been seen by Yi Tianqing before, and it was happening to him!

“This isn’t real, is it?” Yi Tianqing swallowed his saliva in fright.

“Don’t be distracted, absorb quickly!” Feng Wuchen snapped lowly, now furiously activating the Supreme Dragon God Technique to crazily absorb the quantified True Yuan energy.

Yi Tianqing suddenly snapped out of it, nodded repeatedly, and hurriedly operated his cultivation technique to fully absorb the refined massive True Yuan energy!

As he absorbed like mad, Yi Tianqing joyfully discovered that his cultivation level was skyrocketing crazily!

The rise in cultivation was astoundingly rapid!

“Hiss…”

Yi Tianqing sucked in a breath of cold air in shock; it was almost like a dream!

It was simply impossible for cultivation at the Heavenly Human Realm to experience such a terrifying speed of advancement.

What exactly was this terrifying Divine Skill? Where had Feng Wuchen cultivated it from? Who was Feng Wuchen really? Was he truly just Zhang Junlan’s teacher?

All of this was not a dream but a palpable reality.

Yi Tianqing looked at Feng Wuchen with terror, as if he were looking at a monster.

Only now did Yi Tianqing truly realize the horror that was Feng Wuchen, and for the first time, he felt such deep wariness towards someone.

“To have such a terrifying rate of cultivation!” Yi Tianqing stared dumbfounded at his own hands, his face full of disbelief.

“With such a terrifying Divine Skill, if the Dan Emperor wished, he probably could have broken through the Heavenly Human Realm long ago, right?” Yi Tianqing thought fearfully to himself.

“If you want to break through to the Second Layer of the Heavenly Human Realm within a month, then focus on your cultivation!” Feng Wuchen suddenly opened his eyes and coldly commanded Yi Tianqing.

“Yes!” Seeing Feng Wuchen’s eyes, Yi Tianqing jumped in fright.

Yi Tianqing was like a student following his teacher in cultivation, extremely respectful in manner.

Forcing down the shock and terror in his heart, Yi Tianqing began to enter a state of frenzied cultivation, wanting to know if it was truly possible to break through to the Second Layer of the Heavenly Human Realm within a month!

The Primordial Spirits refined madly, and both Feng Wuchen and Yi Tianqing absorbed frantically, their cultivation levels soaring at a rapid pace!
