After that, the Underworld Sect destroyed two families in Clear Glass County on the grounds that they had colluded with the Myriad Spirit Sect.
However, Wang Daoyuan had stayed in Green Willow Province for half a year and knew of these two families.
They had shops in Green Willow Province and business was very good.
These two families had become the chickens that the Underworld Sect had killed to warn the monkeys.
Wang Daoyuan thought that he was lucky. Fortunately, his business with the Underworld Sect had always been done in secret.
Although the conflict between Green Willow Province and the Underworld Sect had been resolved peacefully, it was hard to say if there would be any more changes.
He was not in a hurry to go to Green Willow Province. Refining pills, making talismans, and cultivating in Clear Glass City was also good. It was just that he could not obtain valuable spirit items.
Three months later, the Underworld Sect and Cruel Sun Palace had some small conflicts.
The two sects had a series of small conflicts over a high-value spirit mine at the border. Both sects were nervous.
This way, Wang Daoyuan could go to Green Willow Province without worry. With the border tense, what the Underworld Sect hoped for the most was stability in the rear.
They definitely would not fall out with Green Willow Province at this time.
He packed up his belongings and put them into the space of the spirit pearl. He also left a storage bag on his body.
There were a few high-grade grade one talismans, a dozen pills, dozens of spirit stones, and a sharp golden sword.
If he encountered a strong enemy outside, he could hand over the storage bag to confuse them.
In these three months, he had not been idle. Although his alchemy and talisman skills had not improved much, he had accumulated a lot of goods.
There were more than a thousand pills of various types and more than two hundred low-grade grade two talismans.
After making sufficient preparations, Wang Daoyuan used the Water Dragon Armor and Cloud Mist Escape to go upstream. Six hours later, he was dozens of miles away from Mirror Iron Mountain.
He had nothing to do at Mirror Iron Mountain, so he did not stay and went directly to Green Willow Province.
At this time, there was a large clump of water grass in front of him.
It was normal for there to be water grass in the river, so he did not care too much.
When he passed by the water plants, a long sword pierced out from them.
Wang Daoyuan activated the [Cloud Mist Escape] with all his might, dodging upwards.
This sword was extremely fast. Even though the Cloud Mist Escape was known for its speed, he still couldn't completely dodge it.
However, the sword that was originally aimed at his heart had pierced his arm instead.
His silk armor was like a vest, and there was no protection on his arms.
Fortunately, the Water Dragon Armor had blocked most of the force, and the sword had only scratched his skin.
However, bleeding in the water was not a simple matter. The smell of blood would attract demonic beasts.
He immediately distanced himself more than thirty meters away from the clump of aquatic plants. His doppelganger was telepathically connected to him and had already prepared the medicine in a short while.
He took out some medicine from his space, applied it to his wound, and wrapped a cloth around his arm.
In order to prevent the sword from being poisoned, he even ate two antidote pills.
The series of measures were completed within a period of five breaths.
Logically speaking, this period of time was enough for the enemy to launch another attack, but the person hiding in the aquatic plants did not attack again.
After Wang Daoyuan treated his injuries, he asked, "Since you've already made your move, what's the point of hiding? Do you think I'll spare your dog life if you don't make another move?"
An emotionless voice came from the aquatic plants, "You reacted very quickly. At this distance, I can't hurt you, so what's the point of attacking?"
"You didn't attack until you saw an opening. Are you an assassin?" He probed. "Blood Shadow?"
That year, when he caught the Qing River Carp, the assassin who came to kill him was like this.
His strength was clearly far above him, but he still waited for an opportunity to kill him in one strike.
In the assassin's storage bag, there was a token with the words "Blood Shadow" written on it.
Now that he mentioned Blood Shadow, he could trick this assassin.
The voice in the aquatic plants was no longer emotionless, but rather filled with disbelief, "Since you know about Blood Shadow, then I can't let you live."
The assassin drilled out of the aquatic plants and pounced directly at Wang Daoyuan.
However, this assassin's escape technique was very strange. He would appear and disappear at times.
If it were not for the fact that they were underwater and any movement would cause ripples in the water, he would probably have been ambushed.
Wang Daoyuan was wearing the Water Dragon Armor and activated the Water Control Technique automatically. He was very sensitive to all disturbances in the water.
Every time the assassin came close, he could sense it in advance and use the Mist Escape to dodge the attack.
While he was dodging, he was also observing the secret of the assassin's escape technique.
The two of them were fighting underwater, so the water was not particularly dark.
However, the sunlight was refracted by the ripples on the water, so the distribution of light and darkness in the water was not uniform. Some places were very bright, while other places were shadowed.
This assassin's figure appeared in the bright places and disappeared in the dark places.
He guessed that this assassin's escape technique could only be activated by using shadows.
He had never seen such an escape technique before, so he did not know how to break it.
After a while, he slapped his head and thought to himself, "With a hammer in hand, everything looks like a nail. I always want to use a hammer to solve all problems.
Usually, when I fight with opponents who are stronger than me, I can only rely on my wits.
Now that a battle of wits is useless, I don't know how to fight anymore.
Assassins are good at ambushes, but not good at fighting head-on.
The situation now is that I'm strong and the enemy is weak. After cultivating the Water Dragon Technique, the water is my home ground.
At this time, what's the point of playing a battle of wits? First, I'll be reckless. If I can't kill the opponent, I'll be reckless again. "
He stuck three low-grade level-two Earth Armor Talismans on his body. The Water Dragon Armor was good at defending against spells, but not sharp weapons.
This assassin could barely pierce through the Water Dragon Armor with his sword, so it was impossible for him to break through three layers of the Earth Armor Technique quickly.
Then, he turned the Water Dragon Armor into a water dragon nearly six meters long.
Using the Water Dragon Technique in the water was like a flood dragon entering the sea.
The water dragon danced, rolling up waves of undercurrents. The assassin could not control his direction in the water and could only go with the flow.
Although Wang Daoyuan could not see where the assassin was, he could roughly sense his position.
When he found that the assassin could not control his body, he directly summoned the Soul Extinguishing Bell.
When the bell rang, the water nearby seemed to boil.
Dense ripples, with Wang Daoyuan as the center, spread out in all directions.
The lethality of a sound wave attack in the water was far greater than on the ground.
A moment later, the assassin's figure appeared, already unconscious.
Wang Daoyuan stuck a Soul Subduing Talisman on the assassin's forehead and stored it in the space of his spiritual pearl.
When the assassin heard him mention Blood Shadow, he was especially excited. He was very likely one of Blood Shadow's people.
He had never heard of a faction called Blood Shadow in the State of Zhao. It seemed that Blood Shadow was not a faction on the surface.
He was targeted by an assassin organization, so he had to have some understanding of this organization. Otherwise, he would not even know how he died.
As for how to understand Blood Shadow, there was a ready-made channel in front of him.
He brought the assassin back to the Spiritual Spring Cave and used the Doppelganger Soul-Nurturing Technique on the assassin. He also took the opportunity to recuperate for a few days.
After Twelfth Uncle Wang Shouye succeeded in building his foundation, he would, as usual, invite a few families with whom he was on good terms to celebrate.
Just the preparation alone took a lot of time, and he also had to send people to other families with whom he was on good terms.
For the time being, Twelfth Uncle should not be able to free himself, and the Spiritual Spring Cave's specific location could not be casually revealed to others.
Now that the Spiritual Spring Cave was most likely empty, he could refine a doppelganger here.
