991: C991 Assassination Mission

C991 Assassination Mission

Lin Xuan pondered for a long time. He held the Map Fragments and looked it over and over again, just like in a movie or television mystery. It was like those detectives were trying to find some clues from the Map Fragments.

Or it could be said that Lin Xuan always believed that within the Map Fragments, there were hidden clues regarding the search for other pieces of the Hundred Herbs Painting.

At least it wouldn't be an independent existence.

Thinking of this, he decided to try soaking them in water.

Soaking it with water or burning it with fire were common methods.

He took out a small cup of water and slowly put the Map Fragments into the water, carefully observing the map's changes in the water.

As he immersed himself in the water, that seemingly tight Map Fragments slowly spread out in the water, like a snow lotus flower blooming all of a sudden.

This caused Lin Xuan to be quite shocked. He carefully took out the Snow Lotus cup and looked at it in his hand.

Indeed, there was another mystery to it.

On the Snow Lotus, there was a faint drawing of a map and veins. It spread out the entire spread of the Map Fragments, turning it into a new set of Map Fragments, and showed the location of new medicinal ingredients.

Lin Xuan followed the map and carefully identified it.

"Southern Yue's Ancient Tomb?"

This …

The few medicinal herbs Lin Xuan was looking for, Stellar Blue, Cold Ice Arrow Grass, Skeleton Spirit Flower, Heart-Eroding Mushroom, Fantasy Heart Grass, Thousand Illusionary Blue and Nine-Tailed Dragon Sunflower, after a brief analysis, were all medicinal herbs that grew in some special Yin places.

This ancient tomb originated from the early Western Han Dynasty. It was found in an ancient King's Tomb in Yuetang, which was the mausoleum of the second King of the Kingdom of South Yue, Zhao Qian.

Zhao Zhao is the grandson of Zhao Tuo, known as Wen Di.

Lin Xuan slightly recounted the history of the Southern King's tomb in his mind.

Of course, he was also a bit astonished in his heart. Could it be that there was some special guidance for him?

Could it guide Lin Xuan to find the required medicinal herbs to cultivate and refine the Pill?

Because when he broke through Yuandan Stage, he just so happened to have this piece of Map Fragments s, went to the Southern Barbarian Mountains, and found the medicinal ingredients needed to refine the Shengyuan Pill.

Now, in order to break through the Yuandan Stage, he was able to find the Ancient King's Tomb of the Southern Yue, which was the place where the Profound Origin Core was refined.

Lin Xuan felt much better after discovering the key to refining the Xuan Yuan Pill.

At the moment, he was waiting for Gu Sifan to arrive at Shen City so he could accompany him to Xiangjiang. Then, he could head to the Ancient King's Tomb in the Southern Yue and search for the medicinal ingredients needed to refine Profound Origin Pills.

On the other hand, he was constantly accumulating his strength and improving himself during this process.

There was always a way out.

Lin Xuan always believed this.

… ….

The old ancestral hall, Underground Demonic Metropolis.

There was a period of time when Ya Tong infiltrated the Underground Demonic Metropolis, and he was rather unintentionally appreciated by Demonic Envoy.

Especially Ya Tong, he had a special kind of demon aura inside him.

Compared to the other living beings that were infected by his demonic energy, people like Ya Tong who looked like they had demonic energy since birth actually thought more highly of Wuxin.

By infecting them with demonic energy, he would be able to demonize their living bodies and refine the killing tools that he needed. There would also be uncertainty.

After all, as an ordinary body, it was impossible to withstand the corrosive effects of the demon qi without any side effects.

He had originally planned to find the materials to refine the Shengyuan Pill and use the Shengyuan Pill to suppress the demonic energy's infestation, causing bodily harm.

However, the people that were sent out, Mu Qian and Wang Hao, were like trash. They failed to complete their mission and even lost their lives.

This made Thoughtless very angry.

Coincidentally, if he met a candidate like Ya Tong, he would charge through Underground Demonic Metropolis bravely. Regardless of his identity or background, just the thick demonic energy in Ya Tong's body was enough to make him have a whole new level of respect for him.

If an ordinary body wanted to possess such a strong demonic qi, then it would be an existence that it would absolutely not be able to withstand.

And this Ya Tong had the power to defeat Du Loong.

"Ya Tong, I've been at the Underground Demonic Metropolis for a while, are you used to staying here?"

Even though he knew Ya Tong couldn't speak, he still said what he thought on purpose.

Of course, Ya Tong could understand what he meant.

He didn't wait for Ya Tong's reply and continued to speak darkly, "Anyone in the Underground Demonic Metropolis is not a cripple, nor is there a place to have idle meals."

"Then, this time, I plan to send you out with Du Loong. Are you willing?"

Ya Tong nodded without hesitation and replied with a "wuu wuu" sound.

Although he didn't want to understand what Ya Tong was saying, he knew that Ya Tong agreed.

"The mission this time is both simple and difficult."

Ya Tong frowned slightly. He looked innocent as he stared at Thoughtless.

Unconsciously, he continued: "The mission is to kill someone. His name is Lin Xuan!"

Ya Tong's heart thumped when he heard this. He did not expect that the first time he carried out a mission, he would go and kill Lin Xuan.

However, his expression was as calm as a mirror, without any fluctuations. It could even be said that he had a completely innocent look. It was impossible to tell what sort of special thoughts he had.

Ya Tong, who was unintentionally in such a state, did not waste any more time on nonsense. He also said all sorts of nonsense, and he was able to tacitly agree to it.

"This time, Du Loong will be the leader of the assassination mission. You help him. Do you understand?"

Ya Tong cried out a few times and nodded, gesturing with his hand to show that he understood.

Thoughtless raised his hand to pat Ya Tong's shoulder and smiled strangely, "Very good, as long as you listen to me obediently and complete the mission well, maybe I can cure your mute status and let you speak again."

Ya Tong was so happy that he was like a child, dancing and dancing with joy.

Thoughtless did not think too much about it. He turned around and walked out of the office.

After Ya Tong walked out of the office, he sat back on the sofa with disappointment and restlessness.

He clenched his hands tightly. Of course, he knew that even if Du Loong and him joined hands to kill Lin Xuan, with his Cultivation Level, there was no way Lin Xuan could win against him.

Thinking about this, Ya Tong felt a lot more relieved.

However, if he failed the mission, it would lower his standing in his heart, making it difficult for him to regain his trust.1

What should he do?

No matter how he thought about it, he couldn't think of a better solution. Thus, he could only give up.

Although Ya Tong's heart was filled with hatred, especially towards Underground Demonic Metropolis, these dark factions were all his irreconcilable enemies.

The reason he had hidden into the Underground Demonic Metropolis was also to seek revenge.

In the current situation, he could only endure in silence. No matter what kind of mission it was that he was unintentionally assigned, he had to accomplish it brilliantly.

As for this first mission, it was to assassinate Lin Xuan. Ya Tong didn't have a better solution in his heart, so he could only play around with it and act according to the circumstances …
