"Hmm? Dead? "
Ye Xuan was a little surprised, his brows furrowed.
He sensed that the person who had brought him into Enforcer Yao's residence had been killed.
How long had it been?
Less than a minute!
Ye Xuan's eyes flickered. He suddenly sensed that two people were following him, both of them at the second level of the Netherpassage Realm.
It seemed that he had been targeted!
"Although we're in the city, it's not like there haven't been killings on the streets of Black Chaos Corner. It's better to be careful, lest we get ambushed."
Ye Xuan only reminded himself, then suddenly leaped into the air.
"Ding! Control successful!"
"Ding! Control successful!"
Two system notifications rang out, and the two people following him were instantly controlled by him.
"You two are from Enforcer Yao's residence, right? Why are you following me?" Ye Xuan asked with a frown.
"A few days ago, Enforcer Yao was ambushed and heavily injured, so Lord Xiong sent us to follow you, thinking that you were also here to ambush Enforcer Yao," one of them answered.
"Lord Xiong, is it that brawny man from before?" Ye Xuan raised his eyebrows. So he had been misunderstood.
Since that was the case, then he couldn't be bothered to go back for revenge. It was better to investigate the Drunken Poplar Restaurant first.
After taking the items in the two people's Universe Rings, he continued on his way.
Soon, he found the Drunken Poplar Restaurant.
The Drunken Poplar Restaurant looked very ordinary, but Ye Xuan used his Eye of Perception to sense it and found that there were many crouching tigers and hidden dragons inside. There were many experts eating inside.
At the same time, there was a hidden formation in a corner that led to the underground.
"It seems that Lord Xiong wasn't speaking nonsense. This Drunken Poplar Restaurant is indeed a branch of the Underworld."
Ye Xuan thought in his heart as he stepped into the Drunken Yang Restaurant. Immediately, a ninth level Wanxiang Realm waiter came forward to greet him.
"Sir, do you want to have a meal or stay in the restaurant?"
The waiter asked with a smile.
"Kill!"
Ye Xuan muttered.
The waiter immediately understood. "Sir, this way please!"
Then, the waiter led Ye Xuan to the corner with the array.
The waiter thought that Ye Xuan was a frequent visitor, so he didn't ask any questions and let Ye Xuan leave.
Below the Drunken Poplar Restaurant was a branch of the Underworld. Here, one could accept and issue missions.
Before Ye Xuan came in, he wouldn't be able to sense the aura below due to the superior concealment of the formation.
Only after Ye Xuan went down did he realize that this was a place with many crouching tigers and hidden dragons.
"Quite a few of them at the fifth level of the Netherpassage Realm, and even some at the sixth level …."
Ye Xuan raised an eyebrow, and his heart couldn't help but tremble.
With his current strength, it wouldn't be a problem for him to deal with someone at the fifth level of Netherpassage Realm. However, he wouldn't be able to handle several of them at once, let alone someone at the sixth level of Netherpassage Realm.
However, he was not worried because he was only here to investigate.
"Sir, you don't look familiar. Is this your first time here?"
An attendant from Hell stepped forward to greet them.
"Yes!"
Ye Xuan turned his head and glanced at him, then immediately restrained the attendant at the second level of Netherpassage Realm.
Normally, when entering the Underworld, regardless of whether they accepted or issued a mission, they would have to hide their identity.
Ye Xuan, on the other hand, showed his true appearance.
Of course, it could also be a disguise.
"Sir, are you here to issue a mission, or to accept a mission as an assassin?"
Although the attendant was restrained, he put on an act so as not to expose himself.
"Let me see the list of missions," Ye Xuan said.
Then, the attendant took out a booklet and handed it to Ye Xuan.
It had to be said that the number of missions in this Underworld branch was explosively high. There were at least ten thousand of them.
One had to know that almost all of the missions in the Underworld were missions to kill people. This meant that there were at least ten thousand people on the bounty list.
Ye Xuan copied the entire booklet, then skimmed through it.
"There are more than two hundred missions to capture siblings?"
Ye Xuan shuddered.
The targets of these two hundred missions were all blood-related siblings. Moreover, their age difference was less than a year, and they were all at least at the ninth level of Netherpassage Realm.
Originally, there were still those at the first level of the Manifestation Realm. However, these missions were too easy to complete, so they had all been snatched up.
"These missions are not issued by the same person, but they all have information on these siblings. As long as the Underworld assassins find them and capture them, it's considered a mission."
Ye Xuan noticed this.
There was definitely something fishy that required so many pairs of siblings. Anyone could guess.
These rewards added up to more than four million Inner Demon Pills. This was enough to create a martial artist at the seventh level of Netherpassage Realm.
Previously, Ye Xuan had guessed that the Yin Yang Temple had captured the siblings and brought them back to nurture them.
Now, it didn't seem like it.
That was because the Yin Yang Temple could just casually send anyone down. If they had this information, they could just do it themselves. Why ask the Underworld for help?
Of course, it wasn't impossible.
Perhaps the Yin Yang Temple's demand was too high, so they issued the missions layer by layer. After capturing the target, they would send it up layer by layer.
If that was the case, it would be an astronomical figure.
He just didn't know which was the case.
However, no matter what, Ye Xuan had to investigate thoroughly because this was his purpose in coming to the Glazed Light Sacred Land.
"Can I take this mission list with me?" Ye Xuan turned and asked.
"Yes, it's all about killing and capturing people. As long as you complete it, you can bring the 'token' to turn in the mission." The attendant nodded.
There were as many mission lists as one wanted. As for the token he spoke of, if it was to kill someone, then it would be a corpse. If it was to capture someone, then it would naturally be to bring the person.
However, Ye Xuan's purpose in coming here wasn't to accept or issue missions, but to investigate.
At this moment, three figures suddenly entered the Underworld branch.
Among the three, one of them was dressed in black, wearing a bamboo hat and a face scarf to hide his identity.
He held two chains in his hands. These two chains bound a man and a woman behind him.
"Someone's here to complete the mission!"
Ye Xuan's eyes lit up.
He could sense that this assassin was in the third level of the Netherpassage Realm, while the man and woman behind him were in the first level of the Netherpassage Realm.
"No, don't, don't hand us over to the Underworld!"
"I beg you, we'll gather the fifteen thousand Inner Demon Pills. Please let us go."
The brother and sister pair begged for mercy, but the black-clothed assassin holding them didn't budge at all.
What a joke!
How could an assassin be merciful?
"Buddy, turn in the mission."
The black-clothed assassin lowered his voice.
An attendant of the Underworld walked up to him. After checking the mission list, he said, "Mission No. 173, brother and sister Zhu Xingqiang and Zhu Xinglin. Reward: fifteen thousand Inner Demon Pills. However, identity needs to be verified. "
"No problem!"
