"I was the one who plotted this by accident. At that time, I happened to run into the monks of Daluo Temple at Mount Long Pass, so I played a small trick and killed them with a borrowed knife. Those monks really went to capture the monster, which gave me the opportunity to retrieve the Qiao Family's wooden token," said Chu Xiangzhu.
"But what happened after that was beyond my expectations. First, Lin Jin had several powerful monsters by his side, and second, that Curator was able to overpower Daluo Temple. I even heard that Curator wore a mask with animal patterns on it. Hmph, ever since that Daolord rose to power five hundred years ago, many have tried to imitate him and Curator must be one of them."
He could tell that this Chu Xiangzhu was very proud of his' quick-wittedness' and 'cleverness'.
"Let's put Curator's matter aside for now. We still need to investigate his background. But that Lin Jin must be killed by the Demonic Appraisal Society. Lord Chu, although the hall in Jade Dragon Country has been destroyed, you've done a great service. After all, you managed to retrieve the Daolord's wooden token. This item is extremely important, so our efforts weren't in vain," Elder Ye said with a smile.
"I heard that the Daolord's wooden token hides a huge secret. Chu Xiang, why don't you show it to us?" Zhou Weng grinned after eating an entire table full of dishes. When he was almost full, he grinned.
Chu Xiang shook his head. "Unfortunately, I've already offered it to the Black Emissary. It's probably in the chief's hands by now."
When the others heard this, their expressions changed, but they didn't ask any further about this matter.
The Demonic Appraisal Society was huge and its internal structure was complicated. But the leader at the top was obvious.
The chief of the Demonic Appraisal Society.
He was the highest existence in the Demonic Appraisal Society and a top-notch expert with unfathomable strength. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to establish the Demonic Appraisal Society and form its own faction that could influence many countries.
Under the chief were the Black and White Emissaries.
They were also existences that couldn't be provoked.
"Haha, Chu Xiang, you've done such a great service. Didn't Lord Black Emissary reward you?" Elder Ye asked.
Chu Xiang pondered for a moment before taking out a bone ring. "The Black Emissary has promoted me to the Dark Hall's hall master."
When they saw the bone ring, other than Elder Ye, Zhou Weng and the noble young master revealed looks of envy and jealousy. Evidently, the position of the Dark Hall's hall master was above theirs.
Moreover, the main responsibility of the Dark Hall's hall master was to mobilize the Demonic Appraisal Association's forces and eradicate dissidents. To put it bluntly, they were the Demonic Appraisal Association's sword, a sword that killed.
"Everyone, are you willing to help me kill Lin Jin?" Chu Xiangzhu, no, he was now Hall Master Chu. Perhaps because of his promotion, he was in high spirits.
Several other people know that this time the members of the society who stayed in Tianxuan city gathered together because of this matter. If it was before, they would help if they wanted to, and if they didn't want to, no one would dare to say that they are wrong.
But things were different now.
The fact that Hall Master Chu took out the bone ring meant that the Dark Hall was issuing an order. Even though it was a polite question, it was still an order.
He had no choice but to agree.
This was the rule of the Demonic Appraisal Association.
Out of the other three people present, Zhou Weng grinned eerily, revealing a mouthful of sharp teeth. "That Lin Jin went against the Demonic Appraisal Association so of course we have to kill him. More importantly, he killed Yang Qingshi. Who doesn't know that I benefited from Yang Qingshi? If I don't avenge him, how will my brothers in the association look at me?"
The half-human half-beast Zhou Weng was the first to express his stance.
And he was resolute.
Elder Ye laughed. "Isn't it just killing a greenhorn? It's no big deal. Count me in then. Just treat it as a way to relax."
It was obvious that this Elder Ye was confident in his strength and did not take this matter to be a big deal.
Only an androgynous noble young master was left. He glanced at Hall Master Chu but didn't agree immediately. Instead, he asked, "Hall Master Chu, do you have a plan?"
At this, the other two turned to look at Hall Master Chu. The plan was important. Although they didn't think much of Lin Jin, they knew that Lin Jin's ability to destroy the Jade Dragon Kingdom branch and kill Yang Qingshi was a testament to his strength.
After all, the Demonic Appraisal Association wasn't powerful enough to cover the sky with one hand and Lin Jin was quite capable too. Hence, ensuring the success of this operation became a priority.
My plan is to first head to Maple City where Lin Jin is and lure him out before setting up a trap in the city. I've already asked Envoy Black for a Myriad Corpse Explosion Talisman. Once we give this talisman to Lin Jin's trusted aide, if he goes back to save someone, he will definitely fall for it. Even if he doesn't die immediately, he will be heavily injured after coming in contact with the poisonous gas. Once that happens, killing him will be as easy as pie for all of you here. "
When the others heard this, they all sucked in a breath of air.
Venomous!
How freaking venomous.
This guy surnamed Chu was indeed not a good person. No matter what he did, he liked to use underhanded methods. He would never fight openly with others.
It was no wonder he was able to climb up the ranks so quickly in the Demonic Appraisal Association.
But to be honest, this plan was great and safe. As long as it was carried out, it would definitely succeed. Hall Master Chu was someone who was willing to use treasures. The Toxic Corpse Explosion Talisman wasn't something to be scoffed at. Even in the Demonic Appraisal Association, it was an extremely rare item.
"That's a great plan!" Elder Ye smiled, agreeing with the plan.
It was clearly a safe plan and sounded like it would succeed. Most importantly, there wouldn't be any danger involved.
Although Elder Ye said he looked down on Lin Jin and thought that he was nothing much, he knew that Lin Jin was no pushover if he was able to kill Yang Qingshi.
He had met Yang Qingshi once and knew that the man had a terrifying and mysterious existence backing him up. Something like the Reverse Beast King's Scripture couldn't be something anyone could come up with on a whim.
There must be an unbelievably powerful entity behind this.
But even so, Yang Qingshi was still dead.
Hence, Lin Jin wasn't easy to deal with. But with Hall Master Chu's plan, Lin Jin's death was certain.
No one could withstand the power of the Toxic Corpse Explosion Talisman.
Even if Lin Jin survived the first wave of attacks, he wouldn't be able to survive the rest.
Let alone a human, even a legendary immortal would definitely die under this chain of attacks. There was absolutely no possibility of survival.
The others nodded in agreement.
"Alright, if that's the case, we'll move out tomorrow. This time, we must eliminate this Lin Jin to prevent any future troubles. Come, let me toast first." Hall Master Chu raised his glass and drained it in one gulp, as if celebrating in advance.
He was confident that this operation would succeed.
The others laughed heartily and raised their glasses as well.
After eating for a while more, the few of them finally had enough to eat and drink and left.
Since they were going to depart tomorrow, they needed to rest and prepare themselves.
However, never in their wildest dreams did they imagine that the person they were plotting to eliminate had been sitting on a chair in the corner of this private room, listening to their entire plan.
