Mission Upgrade
Seeing more and more Elders appear in the Divine Vein Sect, the Purple Robed Envoy hurriedly led the three Purple Star assassins away from the Divine Vein Peak.
"Sir Envoy, could this person have been killed by Zhang Dan? Otherwise, how could he have killed a Bloodline Return to Origin Stage core disciple in such a short time?" One of them said in a deep voice.
The Purple Robed Envoy did not speak. After a long while, he frowned and said solemnly, "Killing this person is not the difficulty of this assessment mission. Instead, we have to go deep into the 53rd floor of the Divine Vein Peak, kill a core disciple, and then retreat unscathed …"
"If he can retreat unscathed in a few days, the first assassination mission will be considered completed."
The people behind him nodded. Assassinating a core disciple was not difficult. Even though Long Chen was fast, it was very likely that his whereabouts would be exposed.
Whether this mission could be completed was still unknown.
However, they did not know that Long Chen had already left the Divine Vein Sect and was on his way to the Tong Bi Sect.
The Tong Bi Sect's Xue Qian was different from the other two. She was a direct disciple, which proved that her strength had probably reached the Late Origin Stage.
If Long Chen fought someone of this level head-on, it would be difficult for him to kill her even if he used a secret technique. However, if he used the Dao of Assassination, it was not impossible.
However, everyone knew at this moment that in the face of such an assassination, if they were not careful, only death would await them. There was no second chance.
Long Chen left the third assassination target for last because that person was a disciple of the Wanjian Sect.
Among the Five Great Sects, the Wanjian Sect was undoubtedly the strongest. Although the assassination target was only a core disciple, Long Chen still chose to act last.
Xue Qian, a direct disciple of the Tong Bi Sect. Although her appearance was outstanding, she had a vicious heart. For unknown reasons, she once poisoned a female disciple of the Wanjian Sect.
However, for some reason, this matter was covered up by the Tong Bi Sect and this person did not receive any punishment.
This time, Long Chen did not act immediately. He was waiting for an opportunity to kill with one blow …
However, he waited for two days and two nights.
Finally, Long Chen made his move on the third night …
Xue Qian died naked in a pool of clear spring behind Tong Bi Men. Her blood gradually dyed the spring red.
The sword pierced through his heart without any resistance. In fact, he didn't even have time to wait for his death.
This assassination was even cleaner than Magosawa's.
However, Long Chen had spent close to three days to do so.
These days of concealment and observation allowed him to discover Xue Qian's habit. Every night before returning to the cave to cultivate, she would head to the back mountain to bathe in the clear spring.
And the best time to kill a woman was undoubtedly the moment when all her clothes were about to be taken off.
Long Chen thought to himself that the difficulty of this assessment mission was on the high side. If it had been another person, it would have taken at least a month or more to complete.
In fact, even if he was so proficient in the art of assassination, he wouldn't dare to say that he could complete the mission of assassinating three people in a month.
Of course, with the Sovereign's Divine Will, everything was a different story.
Because of his powerful Divine Will, coupled with his art of assassination, he could enter and exit the five major sects as if there was no one there.
After the death of the two people, Long Chen didn't continue to assassinate the third person.
At this moment, Tong Bi Sect would soon fall into chaos like Holy Pulse Sect. At this time, all of the five major sects would be extremely vigilant. It would be risky to assassinate a disciple of Wanjian Sect.
However, Long Chen had already decided on the time of the next assassination. It would be the first night after the two major sects calmed down. Everyone would be most relaxed.
That would be the best time for him to assassinate the third person!
Long Chen returned to the cave as if all of this had nothing to do with him …
Until the next morning, the Hundred Smelting Sect and the other four major sects were in a state of panic.
The higher-ups of the Hundred Smelting Sect directly left the sect and went to the Wanjian Sect. At the same time, the other three sects did the same.
Wanjian Sect, the peak of the mountain.
The sect masters and hundreds of elders of the major sects gathered. The faces of the five sect masters were somewhat gloomy.
However, the core of their discussion wasn't the two people who had died.
In fact, they didn't care about the two people who had died at all. What they cared about was the hidden news brought by the two corpses.
That was, the number one assassin organization in the Ancient Barren Land had finally included the five major sects in their assassination scope.
…
On the other side, Long Chen also received another piece of news that surprised him.
That was the relationship between Xue Qian and Lian Cheng of the Wanjian Sect. After Xue Qian's death, the number one genius disciple of the Wanjian Sect, Lian Cheng, actually went to Tong Bi Sect many times and finally took her corpse away.
In this way, Long Chen figured out why the five major sects turned a blind eye to Xue Qian's grave mistake. It was because of Lian Cheng.
As the most talented disciple of the Wanjian Sect, Lian Cheng was equivalent to the number one person of the younger generation of the five major sects. His influence was almost no less than that of the elders of the major sects.
The higher-ups of the five major sects and the Wanjian Sect's peak gathered for a full day, but there seemed to be no reaction at all. Even the deaths of the two people were left unsettled. After their deaths, there was no intention to investigate.
This was something that Long Chen didn't expect. The speed at which things were calmed down exceeded his expectations.
Therefore, he chose to take action again and complete the third assassination.
On the sixth day after killing Xue Qian, Long Chen turned into a ghost in the night. Today, the major sects' defenses were relaxed for the first time …
However, this time, the middle-aged man in purple and the other three Purple Star assassins directly blocked Long Chen. The few of them were like shadows that blended into the darkness of the night.
When they appeared again, they were already outside the five major sects.
"You've passed the test, but I have an even higher challenge for you. Of course, whether you accept it or not is up to you. If you agree, from today onwards, you will be the Purple Star Emissary of the Dark Star Organization."
The man in purple's words made Long Chen's eyes light up. If he could really become the Purple Star Emissary, it would save him a lot of trouble. At the very least, he wouldn't have to listen to the orders of the higher-ups to personally carry out assassinations. Moreover, he could have his own assassination team …
"Speak, what is it?" Long Chen asked without hiding anything.
"Increase the number of assassinations from three to ten. As for the benefits, as long as you complete the mission, you will become the Purple Star Emissary of the Dark Star Organization. Moreover, if you can complete it within half a year, the organization will give you a Fire Phoenix Seven Sections Grass as a reward."
