Ten minutes after Xia Pingan entered the Fearless House, he walked out of it.
Xia Pingan was both excited and a little heavy as he walked out of the Fearless House.
The mission to infiltrate the Blood Demon Church was not so easy to complete. It was like walking on a tightrope.
Although Lan Wuwei's words were rather tactful, Xia Pingan still understood the meaning behind them. The Shadow Guards would reward those who made a contribution and punish those who made a mistake. If he did not make any progress in this mission for a long time, the resources he would receive from the Shadow Guards would be very limited. If he did not make any contributions, why would he want the resources of the Realm Pearl?
There were two disadvantages to this mission. First, once the mission started, if he really came into contact with the Blood Demon Church, he would put himself in danger. At the same time, he would not receive the support of the Adjudicator Army and any official forces of the Shang Dynasty. These forces might even stand against him on the surface.
The second disadvantage was that once his identity was exposed, he would die. His life was now in the hands of the people above him. Lord Lin Yi of the Blood Demon Church, the Adjudicator Army, and even Lan Wuwei might want his life.
Letting his life be in the hands of others was what Xia Pingan disliked the most.
However, there were three advantages to this mission. First, there was no mandatory time requirement for the mission. Everything depended on him. If he was a salted fish, he could completely ignore this mission and do whatever he wanted in Shang Jing City. At the same time, he could still retain his official identity as a Shadow Guard. To some people, this was a good thing.
The second advantage of this mission was that if he could really get close to the Blood Demon Church, he might be able to find out some information about the Dark Tower from the Blood Demon Church. This was his highest mission in this world. This mission was related to the safety of countless people in another world. Xia Pingan did not dare to forget it at all.
The third benefit of this mission was that if he could really achieve something and enter the inner circle of the Blood Demon Church, then his position and importance in the Dark Shadow Squad would increase again. The resources that he could obtain and mobilize would also increase exponentially.
This was the dual nature of things. Once you chose to accept it, you would have to accept both the good and the bad at the same time.
Xia Pingan was silent as he pondered in his heart. From the other side of Hundred Spirits Alley, he arrived at Qianyuan Street.
After finding a boisterous restaurant on Qianyuan Avenue, Xia Pingan ate a basket of steamed buns and drank a bit of millet porridge. He then looked at the black box that he had placed in the spatial warehouse. Xia Pingan had already made up his mind.
What's there to be afraid of?
Before coming to the Yuanqiu World, he knew that this mission would be very dangerous. Now, there was nothing to hesitate about. Although it was dangerous for him to get close to the Blood Demon Church, the benefits he could get from it were also what he needed.
This time, he was really going to use his identity as a Shadow Guard to do something.
After making this decision, Xia Pingan's heart instantly brightened up.
After finishing his breakfast, Xia Pingan walked out of the restaurant and called for a carriage on the street, preparing to return to his rented place and fuse with the Realm Pearl.
He had to increase his strength and advance to the One Sun Realm first. There were also the two mysterious Divine Thought Crystals. He could use this opportunity to see how the Divine Thought Crystals could help a summoner fuse with the Realm Pearl.
The carriage ran briskly on the street. The buildings and scenery on both sides of the street entered Xia Pingan's eyes from time to time.
Xia Pingan, who had already made up his mind to do something, narrowed his eyes as he looked at the scenery on the street. In his mind, he was thinking of ways to get close to and infiltrate the Blood Demon Church.
The Blood Demon Church had a Weave in Shang Jing City. If he were to specifically look for this Weave, not only would it take a lot of effort, but he might also not be able to find it. He might even alert the Blood Demon Church, which would be counterproductive. Therefore, taking the initiative to look for it was the stupidest method. The best method was to let the people of the Blood Demon Church take the initiative to look for him and get in touch with him.
There were actually two ways to make the Weave of the Blood Demon Church pay attention to him. One was to make himself famous in Shang Jing City. The second was to make himself useful in the eyes of the people of the Blood Demon Church.
Xia Pingan's mind planned and gradually had an idea.
As the saying goes, birds of a feather flock together. A person who could be accepted by the Blood Demon Church without worry might appear to be a good person with high morals on the surface, but he was definitely not a good person with high morals on the inside.
It seemed that his character and style of doing things had to be changed.
The carriage passed through the streets of Shang Jing City. Unknowingly, it had already left Qianyuan Street and traveled quite a distance.
Suddenly, Xia Pingan, who was casually looking at the scenery outside the carriage window, was shocked. Two familiar figures suddenly came into his sight.
On the side of the street, a luxurious black carriage pulled by four black horses of the same color happened to stop outside a courtyard with a tall signboard.
Tang Long, who had a black face, walked down from the carriage first. Then, he stood at the side and held the carriage door. Behind Tang Long, a skinny old man wearing a blue robe slowly walked down from the carriage.
Tang Long stood sideways beside the carriage. Xia Pingan would not be mistaken about Tang Long's black face. As for the skinny old man who came down from the carriage, Xia Pingan's heart suddenly turned cold.
Although that person had changed his clothes and was no longer wearing the frightening cow-head ghost mask, Xia Pingan still recognized that person just by looking at that person's back. It was the Tang Family elder who had chased after him in the Southern Mountain Range and Dawan City, wanting to harm him.
Xia Pingan could still remember that Tang Family elder's back view even if he turned into ashes.
On the signboard of the place where the carriage stopped, the words "Dawan Guild Hall" were written …
Xia Pingan glanced at it and hurriedly put down the curtains on the carriage. He did not dare to look any longer, so as not to attract the attention of that Tang Family elder.
From the beginning to the end, Xia Pingan only took a quick glance. His gaze did not stop on anyone.
…
In front of the "Dawan Guild Hall", the Tang Family elder who had just alighted turned his head and glanced at the heavy traffic on the street. He shook his head slightly in his heart. Just now, his heart had stirred. When he looked back, he did not find anything unusual.
The Tang Family elder secretly reminded himself that there were many crouching tigers and hidden dragons in Shangjing City. This time, he had to keep a low profile and be more careful. Just now, perhaps some summoner had taken an extra look at him and caused his heart to stir.
"Elder Wei, we've already prepared a room for you in the guild hall. We've also arranged a number for you at the Medical Saint Building. Two days later, Elder Wei can go for a consultation. With the Medical Saint personally treating you, he definitely won't let Elder Wei make this trip in vain …" The owner of the 'Great Wan Guild Hall', a middle-aged man with a fat face and a moustache, said while nodding and bowing when he saw the elder from the Tang Family alight from the carriage.
"These few years, the Tang Family's Guild Hall has been developing well in Shangjing City. It's been hard on you … cough cough …" The Tang Family elder had just opened his mouth when he could not help but cough. He hurriedly covered his mouth with a handkerchief.
"It's my duty, it's my duty …" The Guild Master was overwhelmed by the favor and hurriedly said modestly.
The position of Guild Master of the Dawan Guild Hall in Shangjing City was one of the most lucrative jobs in the Tang Family. Here, it was much more comfortable than in Dawan City. In Dawan City, people like him would look around with a sly butt. Here, he looked around with a smiling face. Most of the people who came from Dawan City were under his management. After staying here for so many years, he somewhat did not want to leave. This time, he was able to obtain the affirmation of the Tang Family elder. Perhaps he could stay in this position for another eight to ten years.
"Elder needs to rest. Send the food to his room. Don't let anyone disturb him …" Tang Long said coldly from the side. To Tang Long, whenever he saw the Guild Master's fat face and round belly, he would feel inexplicably angry.
The Tang Family disciples fought for their lives in the Southern Mountain Range, but this vermin was indulging in wine and women like a pig in Shangjing City. What right did he have?
"Alright, alright, please follow me …" The Guild Master smiled and hurriedly led them into the Guild Hall.
…
In the carriage, Xia Pingan's heart was thumping. Just now, when Elder Tang turned around, even though he was sitting in the carriage, Xia Pingan still felt his heart tighten. He felt that he had almost been discovered.
This high-level Summoner was too strong.
What did this Tang Family elder come to Shangjing City for?
He should not be here for him.
For some reason, when he thought of how this Tang Family elder had pursued him relentlessly with evil intentions, Xia Pingan suddenly thought of the "Human Talisman" that Lan Wuwei had mentioned to him earlier …
These two matters seemed to be unrelated, but for some reason, they suddenly popped up in Xia Pingan's mind at the same time.
His luck could not be so good!
Xia Pingan was also shocked by the thought that popped up in his mind.
His luck could not be so good, right? He was just thinking about how to find the Blood Demon Church's people, and in the blink of an eye, this person from the Blood Demon Church popped up on his own.
