Buy the lives of two people?
The atmosphere suddenly turned silent. Steward Lin looked at Ning Qi with a fake smile, but a hint of panic flashed in the depths of his eyes. When he saw that Ning Qi was only a mid-stage Golden Immortal, he did not take him seriously. However, after Ning Qi killed the South Sea tortoise riding old man's immortal pet, he felt that Ning Qi might have an extraordinary background. The most important thing he overlooked was that the island was so lively because of the All Heavens Talisman.
Since this year's Immortal Ascension Gathering was being held here, the immortals who could attend the gathering more or less had some background. To put it bluntly, they had a lot of money!
What could money do?
Steward Lin knew this the best. After all, as the steward of the Taichu Chamber of Commerce, he had come into contact with hiring assassins several times. He had even acted as a middleman for others because the Taichu Chamber of Commerce had contact with various forces from all walks of life.
Could a Golden Immortal hire an assassin to kill a Grand Luo? As long as they had enough money, there was no need to consider anything else. Naturally, countless immortals would do it for money.
When Jing Li and the others heard Ning Qi's words, they looked at him with suspicion and surprise. Ning Qi's current expression was too calm and did not look like he was boasting!
"A joke? You want to hire an assassin to kill me? "
The South Sea tortoise riding old man laughed out of anger, then said to Steward Lin, "Brother Lin, what are you waiting for? Hurry up and take this kid down! "
"Brother Lin! If this kid really has a lot of heavenly coins, take him down and we'll split his money. Since you've already offended him, what are you hesitating for? This is your territory. You won't get another chance like this if you miss it! "
The South Sea tortoise riding old man transmitted again.
Steward Lin's eyes flickered slightly, and he took a step back inadvertently. Seeing this, the guards behind him immediately reached out to grab Ning Qi.
They had followed Steward Lin for many years and had long developed a tacit understanding. This was Steward Lin's hint for them to attack.
Seeing this, He Li subconsciously let out a scream. Then, the guards' heads suddenly flew up, and their headless bodies crashed to the ground!
A Grand Luo's bodyguard was at least a full-fledged Golden Immortal, and none of them were weaker than the tortoise that the South Sea tortoise rode on. And yet, in the blink of an eye, before Steward Lin and the South Sea tortoise rode on even had a clear look, they were already decapitated and dead.
Everyone's eyes were filled with astonishment, and they could not believe it.
"This kid's strength is very terrifying. I'm afraid he's on the Golden Immortal List!"
Tong Huan transmitted his voice to Jing Xian and the other two. He looked at Ning Qi with a hint of solemnity in his eyes.
"Immortal List …"
"Gasp …"
Jing Xian and the other two sucked in a breath of cold air. The way they looked at Ning Qi changed. How many Golden Immortals were there in the vast Immortal Realm? Those who could be ranked on the Golden Immortal Leaderboard were the cream of the crop of the cream of the crop!
Ning Ning Luo of and of Chen
Ning Qi grabbed He Li's arm and walked straight out of the small green bamboo building. He was confident that he could kill his way out of the island in the center of the lake before the other party could react. The worst case scenario was that he wouldn't be able to participate in the Immortal Ascension Assembly.
Either he didn't care, or he did. No one could stop him.
It took several breaths of time for Steward Lin and the South Sea turtle riding old man to react. Seeing Ning Qi about to leave the little green bamboo building, Steward Lin let out an angry roar. His figure flashed and he blocked Ning Qi's path.
The commotion here was already quite big, so the residents of the green bamboo building all came out with furrowed brows, wanting to see what was going on for it to be so noisy.
Even the immortals passing by outside were attracted here.
"Someone is causing trouble on Lake Heart Island?"
"Who is so daring? Tomorrow is the Immortal Ascension Assembly. If they cause trouble, wouldn't they lose their qualifications to participate in the Immortal Ascension Assembly?"
"That's not all. I heard that the Taichu Chamber of Commerce never tolerates troublemakers. No matter how powerful their background is, as long as they are not at the level of a Celestial Lord, the Taichu Chamber of Commerce will not give them any face!"
"You want to leave the island after killing the people of the Taichu Chamber of Commerce? No matter what your background is today, you are dead! " Steward Lin looked at Ning Qi coldly, but he did not act on his own. It was not only because he was a little wary of Ning Qi's means, but also because the guards who had just died were not personally trained by him, but were trained by the Taichu Chamber of Commerce. Now that several Perfected Golden Immortals had died, if he killed Ning Qi, he would be punished by the Taichu Chamber of Commerce.
If he killed Ning Qi, he would be punished by the Taichu Chamber of Commerce.
Seeing that things were getting more and more serious, He Li was filled with regret. However, in the midst of regret, there was a trace of emotion that she had never felt before.
"What happened?"
A middle-aged man slowly walked over, followed by a group of guards from the Taichu Chamber of Commerce. However, the strength of this group of guards was extraordinary. The robes they wore were also different from the guards brought by Steward Lin. Each of them exuded the aura of a Perfected Golden Immortal.
As soon as they arrived, the eyes of the nearby immortals suddenly became solemn. Many people recognized the identity of the middle-aged man and were secretly surprised. They did not expect to see this person before the Immortal Ascension Assembly began.
"Profound Immortal?"
Ning Qi looked at the middle-aged man and narrowed his eyes slightly.
When Steward Lin saw this, a hint of surprise appeared in his eyes. He hurriedly bowed to the middle-aged man and said, "Steward Lin Bing of the Foreign Affairs Hall of the Taichu Chamber of Commerce greets Elder Li Li!"
Li Li nodded lightly, then frowned. "What happened? Why are you shouting? Don't you know that Miss likes peace and quiet?" After a pause, his nose twitched. "There's the smell of blood. Did you guys fight here?"
When Steward Lin heard this, he hurriedly pointed at Ning Qi and repeated what happened. Of course, he only mentioned the details that were beneficial to him. As for the fact that the tortoise-riding old man from the South Sea wanted He Li to sleep with him, Steward Lin ignored it.
"A mid-stage Golden Immortal killed several Golden Immortals in the Great Perfection of the Taichu Chamber of Commerce. Which family are you from? Didn't your master tell you before you came that the people of the Taichu Chamber of Commerce cannot be killed?"
After listening, Li Li looked at Ning Qi and said calmly.
"A mid-stage Golden Immortal killed a Golden Immortal in the Great Perfection? And a guard from the Taichu Chamber of Commerce? "
"Where did this kid come from? Why is he so fierce? Even I couldn't compare to him when I was young, right? "
"I wonder which family he's from. A newborn calf is not afraid of a tiger. No matter how talented he is, how can he offend the Taichu Chamber of Commerce? Isn't he courting death?"
When the nearby immortals heard this, their gazes toward Ning Qi suddenly became complicated. Some were surprised, some were gloating, and of course, there were also many young immortals who secretly admired him.
"I came to participate in the Immortal Ascension Assembly as a guest. Your Steward Lin used his position as a steward to bully me. Why can't I do anything? He's already giving face to the Taichu Chamber of Commerce by standing here today. Otherwise … "
