Loopy Toad and the baldie followed behind Wang Ling. Everyone who had just arrived at the Wang family's small villa was a little reserved for the first time, and Killer Taoist was no exception. This was because almost everyone had tacitly agreed that the Old Man Wang in this villa was a powerhouse who had lived in seclusion for a long time. Every time they thought of this, their hearts would always be filled with a deep sense of awe …
When they reached the villa's entrance, Wang Ling opened the door and suddenly heard Loopy Toad ask the baldie a very interesting question behind him.
Loopy Toad looked at the baldie. "How did you find this place?"
Wang Ling also felt that this question was a little outrageous. Because of the Great Shielding Spell, Wang Ling wasn't worried that outsiders would find out anything about the Wang family's small villa. Most people actually didn't know that the legendary "Ling Zhenren" actually lived here. Even legendary killers like Killer Taoist, who had a powerful intelligence network, couldn't do this. So, after dismissing the possibility of an outsider, Wang Ling's first reaction was that there was a traitor among his friends!
The baldie said, "I bought this information from the cultivation forum, and it cost me eight thousand gold bricks …"
The corners of Loopy Toad's eyes twitched. "Gold bricks?"
Baldy nodded. "Mhm … These are genuine gold bricks, handmade Immortal Gold."
"… Holy shit! Immortal gold! "Loopy Toad was startled, because immortal gold was a very valuable thing!
It had looked up the current currency system, and in Huaxiu nation, the HNY was the standard currency in circulation. In the era of national cultivation, even ordinary families could use HNY to trade with cultivators. But cultivators were more used to using the old-fashioned rules of the past, and immortal gold was one of the most commonly used items to preserve value.
A piece of immortal gold that had absorbed the essence of heaven and earth was worth roughly the same as a toilet in Jinghua City's Fifth Ring! Immeasurable …
Loopy Toad estimated that with eight thousand pieces of immortal gold, it could buy about four houses in the Fifth Ring, three in the Fourth Ring, one in the Third Ring, and only a down payment in the Second Ring …
Loopy Toad: "Then who on earth gave you this information?"
The baldie: "I think it should be a big shot in the industry, and he was anonymous when he gave me the information. But when I bought the information, he gave me a cart of vegetables that he grew himself. "
Loopy Toad: "Vegetables?"
The baldy nodded seriously, and with a flash of light, a large broccoli appeared in his palm.
Loopy Toad: "…"
Wang Ling: "…" This profiteer!
…
…
While the old man was preparing dinner, Wang Ling took the baldie upstairs and didn't have any intention of making him stay for dinner. Everything had to be done in an orderly manner. After all, they weren't that familiar with this legendary assassin yet. In the chat group, only Dharmaraja and Grenade-Throwing had been on the same table.
After bringing him to the room, the baldy did not stand on ceremony. He directly sat on the floor, crossed his arms, and revealed a thoughtful expression.
Sitting in a chair, Wang Ling picked Loopy Toad up and put it on his lap. He reached out and patted the dog's butt; he was actually directly using Loopy Toad as a messenger …
Loopy Toad stared at the baldie. "Tell me about the situation …"
"I believe Ling Zhenren has already heard a lot about Shuigou Sect's recent events." The baldie didn't stand on ceremony. Staring at Wang Ling, he got straight to the point. "Actually, the mastermind behind Shuigou Sect was my shishu Daoist Taotie …"
Wang Ling's eyes twitched at this news, because he clearly remembered that Old Antique had given them a theory of history lesson not long ago, and had been talking about Daoist Taotie and Gorgeous Itinerant.
Loopy Toad: "Then your shifu is Gorgeous Itinerant?"
"That's right …"
The baldie sighed. "The whole thing probably started with the grudge between the two of them; I'm still investigating the specific details. But from the clues I have, my shishu's purpose in establishing Shuigou Sect this time was for revenge. Back then, my shifu accidentally killed Black Gauze, my shishu's adopted son … "
Loopy Toad licked its fur. "Is this person also a killer?"
The baldie shook his head. "No, I've looked into all the names on the killer list, but I've never seen this person's name. Also, I only found out about this when I fought with my shishu not long ago … It was probably this incident that caused the two of them to break up and leave the killer circle. "
Loopy Toad: "Then why did he establish Shuigou Sect?"
The baldie frowned and said, "Shishu's Shuigou Sect is now developing a fruit that can stimulate a Foundation Establishment cultivator's potential for a short period of time. According to the information I have, after eating the fruit, there's a period of incubation. Once the incubation period is over, the fruit's energy will be released … and it will be difficult for a Foundation Establishment cultivator's physique to suppress this energy, which will eventually lead to a spirit explosion. "
Spirit explosion? Loopy Toad's green fur trembled in fright, and even Wang Ling's pupils abruptly contracted.
If this was the case, then Shuigou Sect's purpose in releasing the twelve missing students was very obvious: this was equivalent to planting twelve human bombs in the school.
The power of a spirit explosion was no different from a small nuclear bomb. Generally speaking, the higher a cultivator's realm was, the more powerful the spirit explosion would be because they had accumulated more spirit power in their bodies. However, after those missing students ate the fruit that could stimulate their potential spirit power, they would explode on the spot if they couldn't suppress the increase in their spirit power.
The baldie sighed. "I originally wanted to mediate this matter, but in the end, I was too weak and couldn't persuade shishu …"
Loopy Toad: "Even you couldn't persuade him? Aren't you at the legendary level? "
The baldie's lips twitched. "In our killer circle, killers at the bottom are divided into third-rate to first-rate, middle-level killers are divided into high-level and top-notch, and high-level killers are divided into legendary and epic … I'm only at the legendary level, I can't beat an epic-level killer."
Loopy Toad: "If I may ask, what's the difference between legendary and epic?"
The baldie: "Hm … it's like hitting a dragon saber with a small stool in a newbie village …"
Loopy Toad: "…"
"Furthermore, there are currently only two publicly recognized epic-level killers in the killer world. One is my shifu, Gorgeous Itinerant, and the other is my shishu, Daoist Taotie."
Speaking up to this point, the baldie paused. "Of course, there's actually another great ancestor-level figure … That's my shifu and shishu's shifu, Numinous Mother."
Both Loopy Toad and Wang Ling were blank when they heard this name.
Great ancestor?
Thus, Wang Ling pinched Loopy Toad's butt and motioned for it to continue asking questions …
"…"
Loopy Toad: "Is this person very strong?"
"I've never fought her, so I don't know." The baldy shook his head and said, "But in our current assassin circle, all of the cultivation method atlases were written by this Ghost Hatchet Numinous Mother. Do you know the 'Thousand Years of Anal Explosion'? She's the original work! "
Loopy Toad: "…"
