Phoenix Slayer pulled on Dumb's clothes and said, "Big Brother, let's go. Don't get angry at these trash. "After saying this, he gave Dumb a meaningful glance and pulled him into Sunset City.
After entering the city, Phoenix Slayer complained, "Why were you so impulsive? Did you forget what you came here for? Aren't you afraid that your identity will be exposed? Be more careful in the future.
Dumb said hatefully, "I can't help myself when I see this kind of idiot who uses his power to bully others. It seems that I haven't completely digested my fiendish aura! I've killed too many people in the past half a year. My killing intent is too strong. "After killing an ordinary soldier, he felt somewhat remorseful. At that moment, he discovered that Phoenix Slayer was standing near the city gate and hadn't followed him in. He couldn't help but walk over to her side in confusion. Phoenix Slayer stared blankly at an inconspicuous place on the city wall. There were a few white marks there, and they seemed to be some kind of pattern. Dumb said, "What are you looking at? Let's go in. "
Phoenix Slayer woke up from his daze, and his face twitched. His face was somewhat pale, and he forced himself to say, "It's nothing. Let's go." Only then did he enter Sunset City with Dumb.
Sunset City was indeed bustling. The streets were bustling with activity, and the sounds of people hawking their wares could be heard. Dumb pointed at a small inn in front of them and said, "Phoenix Slayer, let's stay there." Phoenix Slayer didn't reply. She continued to walk forward with her head lowered, as if she hadn't heard Dumb's words. Dumb was startled. After seeing those marks at the city gate, Phoenix Slayer seemed to be in a very low mood. He couldn't help but grab her shoulder and call out, "Phoenix Slayer, Phoenix Slayer, can you hear me?"
Phoenix Slayer woke up from his thoughts and said blankly, "Ah? What did you say? I didn't hear you. "
Dumb frowned and said, "What's wrong with you? Didn't you say you wanted to find a place to stay? Let's go to that small inn in front. It's not conspicuous, and it's a suitable place. "
Phoenix Slayer nodded and reluctantly said, "Let's go there." With that, she walked toward the inn. Dumby didn't understand why she was acting like this. He shook his head and followed her. The two of them asked for two ordinary rooms in the hotel. As soon as Big Brother entered the room, Phoenix Slayer called out to him. "Dumb, rest here for now. I'll take you to the Assassin 'Union at night. I'll take you there. "
Dumby was stunned. "We've already arrived at the Sunset Empire. The thing you promised me is about to be completed. Where are you going at this time? "
"Phoenix Slayer," and Dumb said, "Phoenix" and Dumb "Man" Long. "King" Dumb, "didn't Dumb. I'm going to see what's going on. Don't worry, I'll be back before evening. "With that, he turned around and walked out without waiting for Dumby's reply. The Dragon "s Phoenix Slayer wasn't looking for her. Rather, it was the Thieves' Union's most urgent signal. It would only appear when something big happened. Phoenix Slayer realized that something was wrong with the Thieves' Union, so she hurried to take a look.
Dumb looked at Phoenix Slayer's back and didn't stop her. He returned to his room by himself. He was about to take revenge for Owen. For the sake of caution, he had to make sure that he was in his best condition. He took off his shoes and floated to the bed in the room to cultivate. Under the effect of the Heart of Hatred, he used a long time to enter a state where he forgot about everything else.
Phoenix Slayer returned in the evening. However, her face was still pale, and a struggling expression flickered in the depths of her eyes. She knocked on Dumb's door and tried her best to calm her expression. "Let's go. I'll take you to the Assassin's Union." Dumb looked at Phoenix Slayer and said, "Did something happen to the Thieves' Union? You don't look well. "
Phoenix Slayer shook her head and said, "It's an internal matter, and it's already been resolved. Let's go now. I should finish what I promised you. "
Although Dumb was a bit confused when he saw Phoenix Slayer's expression, the thought of revenge occupied most of his thoughts. He didn't think too much about it. He packed his things and followed Phoenix Slayer out of the inn. The weather that day wasn't good. The sky was overcast, and at night, the bright moon in the sky was covered by the dark clouds, making the world seem especially dusky.
Phoenix Slayer walked very quickly, heading toward the west of Sunset City. Dumb caught up to her and transmitted his voice, "Where is the Assassin's Union? Can you tell me now?"
Phoenix Slayer nodded and said in a low voice, "The Assassin's Union is able to survive on the continent largely because of the Sunset Empire's protection. Their headquarters is located in the manor of an influential person in the Sunset Empire. As for the relationship between their president and that influential person, I'm not too sure. I only know that even a high-level thief like me can't infiltrate that manor. You have to be careful. You don't have to make a move today. Investigate everything first. Don't rashly alert the enemy. "
Dumb nodded and said, "Don't worry. I'll be careful. What happened in Tai Ang City won't happen again. I won't give them the chance to attack me. "
Phoenix Slayer looked deeply at Dumb and said, "That's for the best." Although he was eager to take revenge, the Sunset Empire was abnormally prosperous at night. Among the commoners, they could only advance at the pace of an ordinary person. After walking for more than an hour, Phoenix Slayer stopped and pointed ahead. "It's over there."
Dumb felt a rush of excitement and looked in the direction she was pointing. It was a tall courtyard wall. Surprisingly, there weren't many people walking around the wall. The wall was five meters tall, and it wasn't much inferior to the imperial palace. He couldn't see what was going on inside. Dumb asked in a low voice, "What's the status of this influential person in the Sunset Empire? How can he live in such a large courtyard? This place seems to be around 40,000 to 50,000 square meters. "
Phoenix Slayer looked at Dumb and said, "There's no need for me to hide anything from you. Back then, our Thieves Guild accepted a large sum of money from this influential person and went to the Elf Clan to capture elves. This influential person is the Grand Duke of the Sunset Empire. He's the only Duke in the entire Sunset Empire. Although his authority isn't as great as that of the Sunset Empire's Emperor, Quan Yi, it's not too far off. Most of the Sunset Empire's economic lifelines are in his hands. His wealth can only be described as comparable to a country's. Due to his overwhelming authority, there are probably many experts in his residence. Moreover, there are also people from the Assassin Guild. They're definitely a very powerful force. You absolutely mustn't act rashly.
You have to understand the situation first. "After hearing Phoenix Slayer mention the Elf Clan, Dumb couldn't help but think of the dozen or so Elves that had committed suicide after being humiliated. New hatred and old hatred welled up in his heart at the same time. He said hatefully," I'm going to kill this so-called Duke as well. I'll bury him with the Assassin Guild. You wait here. Don't worry, I won't make a move today. Once everything is clear, tomorrow will be the day the Assassin Guild dies. " After saying this, he took advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention to him to take off his commoner's clothes, revealing the black Giant Spirit Serpent Armor underneath. Then, he floated up and landed on the tall wall in front of him.
Phoenix Slayer's pale face contorted. She lightly shook her head and walked to a dark corner to wait for Dumb.
Just as Dumby and Phoenix Slayer appeared outside the Grand Duke's Mansion, several figures were whispering to each other not too far away. Their gazes were focused on the place where Dumb had disappeared.
A deep and resounding voice came from a tall figure. "Teacher, it's Dumb. It's really him. You were right. He really came here. Should we go and stop him? "
"No, don't call him now. Let him go. He's the most suitable person to take revenge for Junior Brother Owen. I think that's what Junior Brother Owen wants to see the most. Judging from what Dumb did just now, he's already received teacher's teachings. His skills are above mine. There shouldn't be any problems. We just need to find a good opportunity and help him when he's in danger, "the aged voice said in a calm voice. The dark clouds in the sky suddenly scattered a little. Under the illumination of the moonlight, the appearances of several figures could be clearly seen. They were the Yanshi Brothers, Zhuo Yun, Xi Wen, and Liao Wen. They had been waiting here for more than four months, waiting for Dumb to appear. As it turned out, after Xi Wen and his Junior Brother followed the Yanshi Brothers down the mountain, Xi Wen decided to go to the Sunset Empire's capital, Sunset City. When Yanshi asked him why he went to Sunset City, Xi Wen mysteriously didn't tell him. It was only when everyone arrived that he told them the truth. Initially, when Xi Wen and the other second-generation disciples found out that their Junior Brother Owen was killed by the Assassin's Guild, they were furious. However, because of Tiangang Kensei's order and the desire for Dumb to avenge Owen, they didn't do anything. Moreover, Tiangang School was the national faction of the Hwasin Empire. If they went to the Sunset Empire to destroy the Assassin's Guild, it was very likely that it would cause a war between the two countries. Tiangang School's status in the Hwasin Empire was very high. For many years, the two countries had always been at odds, so they naturally had a deep understanding of each other. In order to help Dumb completely destroy the Assassin's Guild and avenge Owen, Xi Wen and the other second-generation disciples fully utilized the influence of Tiangang School in the Hwasin Empire. This prompted the Hwasin Empire to send a large number of highly capable spies to infiltrate the Sunset Empire. After several years of investigation, they finally found the headquarters of the Assassin's Guild. However, Tiangang School didn't act rashly. After receiving the news, they just hid the secret and waited for an opportunity. This time, when Xi Wen and the others entered the Sunset Empire, they heard about the Grim Reaper. Of course, Yanshi and the others knew that the Grim Reaper was the incarnation of Dumb. After a period of searching, Xi Wen realized that Dumb was able to accurately find the Assassin's Guild's strongholds one after another. Although he didn't know how Dumb did it, he knew that he must have an accurate source of information. Therefore, he decided to settle down near the headquarters of the Assassin's Guild in Sunset City with everyone else. He knew that no matter what, Dumb would definitely come to the headquarters of the Assassin's Guild to seek revenge. He would definitely be able to wait for him here, so he used this method of waiting for him. They had been waiting here for more than four months, and the Rock Brothers had been waiting impatiently for a long time. When Xi Wen began to doubt his judgment, the person they had been waiting for finally appeared.
Yanshi said in a low voice, "Teacher Xi Wen, look. The girl who came with Dumb is the thief we told you about. She tried to assassinate Dumb many times in the past. I didn't expect them to be together. I really don't understand what's going on. "Xi Wen smiled and said," Isn't it simple? The most well-informed organization on the continent is the Thieves' Guild. Although I don't know how Dumb found this thief, he must have reached some kind of agreement with her. Previously, Dumb was able to accurately find the strongholds of the Assassin's Guild because of this female thief. I don't know when our Dumb Brother became so smart. It seems that his skills have improved in this period of time. We just need to wait for the Duke's Mansion to fall into chaos and support Dumb. "
Zhuo Yun said with some worry, "But, since this is the headquarters of the Assassin's Guild, there will definitely be many experts. Can Dumb do it alone?"
Yanshi said, "You don't have to worry about this. Don't forget, Dumb still has the help of the dragons. Even if he can't do it alone, with the help of two dragons, he should be able to rush out no matter what. Once Dumb summons the two dragons, it means that he is in trouble. That will be the time for us to make our move. "
Xi Wen nodded approvingly and said, "Yanshi is right. What we need to do now is to wait. Wait for Dumb to explode. The Assassin's Guild has been rampant on the continent for so many years. It's time for them to suffer. Third Junior Brother, go up to the roof and observe. Pay attention to the movements in the Duke's Mansion. If there are any changes, inform us immediately. " There was another important reason why Xi Wen did not directly help Dumb take revenge in the Assassin's Guild. That was, he wanted to see if Dumb already had the strength of a Sword Saint. Dumb was too important to Tiangang School. Even without Tiangang Kensei's words, Xi Wen had already decided that Dumb would be the first person to inherit the position of School Master. As the current School Master of Tiangang School, he must fully test his strength and temperament. Among the second generation disciples, only Xi Wen knew about the competition between the four Sword Saints. He also knew that Tiangang Kensei had given this heavy task to Dumb. Therefore, he had to confirm whether Dumb could take on this heavy responsibility.
Liao Wen nodded and floated up. He landed on the roof ridge and crouched down. Among the second generation disciples of Tiangang School, his skills were second only to Eldest Senior Brother Xi Wen and Second Senior Brother Feng Wen. He had also cultivated the Life Chant to the eighth realm. Moreover, his Life Solidification Qi was also transforming from the first to the second. He could be said to be the top expert in Tiangang School.
Brother leaped over the five-meter-tall wall and landed on the ground with his back against the side wall. Within the walls of the courtyard, the space of the courtyard was even greater than he had imagined. The wide ground in front of him was filled with beautiful flowers and plants. The environment was beautiful, and it was no different from the Setting Sun Empire's palace. Not far in front of him was a small lake. There was a pavilion in the middle of the lake. Behind the small lake was a three-story building. It looked like there were more than a thousand rooms. Most of the rooms were brightly lit, and people's voices could be faintly heard. Dumb squatted down and hid behind a shrub. He released his spirit sense and sensed the movements in his surroundings. He clearly discovered that there were at least a hundred hidden sentries in the courtyard. The auras of those sentries belonged to ordinary assassins. Dumb's heart trembled. He knew that it was impossible for him to kill all of these assassins without alerting anyone. However, he also became excited. He knew that Phoenix Slayer hadn't lied to him. This was definitely the headquarters of the Assassin Association. Now that he had discovered traces of assassins, the excitement in his heart couldn't be described with words. All of the blood in his body was boiling. Dumb completely restrained the aura on his body and slowly moved along the tall wall. He paid attention to the movements in his surroundings at all times.
Suddenly, a dozen or so people walked out of the small building. They arrived at the spacious lawn in front of the building and seemed to be discussing something. Dumb fixed his gaze on them, and a one-armed man attracted his attention. That familiar figure caused Dumb's blood to boil, and he almost couldn't restrain the grief and indignation in his heart and rushed out. This was because that one-armed man was the Vice President of the Assassin Association, the one who had caused Owen's death. The dozen or so people with him all had solemn auras and gloomy expressions. Every movement they made exuded a hint of killing intent. Dumb could clearly sense how powerful they were. He suppressed the killing intent in his heart with great difficulty and carefully observed them. From the aura they emitted, he could tell that they were at the level of Assassins and Prime Assassins. These should be the final strength of the Assassin Association. His master should also be in this small building.
Dumb took a deep breath and controlled the golden body in his dantian to slowly move upward until it reached his brain. He relied on his enhanced sense of hearing to probe the dozen or so high-level assassins.
One of the assassins said, "I've been cultivating for a whole day, and I'm so bored. I can finally come out to take a breather. I really want to go out and kill a few people to relax. I don't know how long I'll have to live like this. "
The Vice President gestured for him to keep quiet and said, "Keep your voice down. It'll be terrible if the Lord hears you. Don't you know that the situation outside is very tense? That Grim Reaper has always been our enemy. Almost two hundred of our brothers have died by his hands. Slayer and Prime Slayer had suffered heavy losses. Even Mie and the other six had died at his hands. The power of the Grim Reaper was truly unfathomable! Could it be that you want to go out and die? Master told us to gather in the headquarters to cultivate for our own good. It was better to endure for a while longer. “
The assassin who spoke earlier snorted coldly and said, "Isn't it just the Grim Reaper?" They hadn't heard from him for almost four months. Are we going to endure it here for the rest of our lives? “
The Vice President said, "I don't think they'll be able to endure it any longer. That Death hasn't appeared yet, and our funds are a little tight. It won't be long before the Lord sends us out on another mission. “
"I hope we can carry out the mission soon. The feeling of killing is still the best! I like the hot blood spurting out of the bodies of the people I kill the most. Whenever I see that scene, my whole body feels comfortable. "
Another assassin said, "Who doesn't know that you're the famous King of Killers? You've been an assassin for thirty years, but your ferocity hasn't changed at all. You're really a natural killer. "
"Haha, only someone like me is a qualified assassin! Doesn't the Lord like my ferocity? By the way, the Lord said today that after cultivating during the day tomorrow, we can relax a little at night. It's said that the Grand Duke is going to hold a banquet to entertain us high-level assassins. I don't know what kind of beauties the Grand Duke is going to send us this time. I really want to vent. "
The Vice President laughed lewdly and said, "Venting is definitely not a problem. The goods that the Grand Duke has brought, how can they be inferior. However, you have to be careful. Don't be tormented by those little demons until your hands and feet go weak. You can't even pick up a sword! Hehe. " The assassin blushed and said, "I'm very restrained. At most three times a night. It's fine to indulge once in a while."
"To be honest, if it wasn't for that self-proclaimed Death God Xiaoxin, we may never have known that the headquarters was actually in the Grand Duke's mansion. In the past, every time the Lord summoned us, it was at the branch. This time, we know a lot of the Union's secrets! "
The Vice President snorted and said, "Do you think knowing too many secrets of the organization is a good thing? The more you know, the more likely you are to die. It's better to be a blind and deaf person who doesn't know anything.
Hearing this, Dumb couldn't help but be overjoyed. Of course, he understood that once the banquet was held, the experts of the Assassin Union would definitely be less vigilant. That would be the best opportunity for him to strike.
The Vice President was still chatting with the assassins. As they chatted, they walked to other places in the courtyard. The topic of their conversation never left tomorrow night's banquet. While they were walking away, Dumb leaned against the wall behind him and, under the cover of the night, quietly slipped out of the Grand Duke's mansion. He had already decided that tomorrow night, he would use all his strength to kill the assassins here.
When Phoenix Slayer saw Dumb slip out of the mansion, he hurriedly moved forward and asked in a low voice, "How's the situation? Is the security tight? When are you going to make your move? “
Dumb nodded and cautiously looked around. In a low voice, he said, "Let's go. We'll talk after we return to the inn." With that said, he pulled Phoenix Slayer and headed back the way they came.
Xi Wen and the others, who were hiding in the shadows, couldn't help but be surprised when they saw Dumb just like that. Yan Li said, "He came out so quickly. Could it be that he has already taken revenge? That's impossible. Several months ago, so many assassins returned here. Even if they didn't retaliate and let him kill them, he wouldn't have done it so quickly! "
Yanshi muttered to himself, "No, Dumb shouldn't have made a move tonight. Otherwise, the assassins would have made some noise. He's much calmer than before. Today, he probably went in to scout. However, he won't delay for too long. He will definitely make a move in the next few days. "Xi Wen nodded and said," That should be the case. Alright, let's go back and rest. We should take turns to observe the situation here. Yan Li, you stay here and keep an eye on the situation. Call us if there are any movements. "
It was already late at night, and there were only a few pedestrians left on the streets. No, to be more precise, they were the gamblers who had lost everything and were driven out of the casino. Dumb and Phoenix Slayer returned to their room in the inn. Dumb was somewhat excited as he said, "Thank you, Phoenix Slayer. I've finally found the assassin's guild. Just now, I heard them say that they are going to hold a banquet tomorrow night. That will be the best opportunity for me to make my move. Don't follow me tomorrow. As long as I don't die, I will definitely come back here to look for you. "
A mournful expression appeared on Phoenix Slayer's face, and he indifferently said, "You have to be careful tomorrow. If things don't work out, immediately retreat. Do you understand?"
Dumb was full of confidence as he said, "I won't retreat. I won't leave that place until I kill all the assassins. Uncle Owen, may your spirit in heaven bless me so that I can find Master smoothly and avenge you and my grandmaster's daughter. Phoenix Slayer, go back to your room and rest. Don't come and disturb me before tomorrow night. I need to meditate and maintain my peak condition. "
Phoenix Slayer nodded. "Alright then. I will send you off tomorrow night." After he said this, he lowered his head and left the room.
Dumb took a deep breath and calmed his excited heart. He sat cross-legged on the bed and circulated the true qi in his dantian according to the Revival Art. The golden body that was more than five inches tall shone brightly under his meticulous control, and the dense liquid true qi in his body continuously circulated. It went up to the heavens and down to the springs. After a short while, Dumb was immersed in a warm and peaceful feeling, and he was completely immersed in his cultivation. Perhaps it was because he was close to achieving his goal of revenge, but when he started cultivating, the meridians in his body became exceptionally smooth, and his power gradually increased.
After cultivating for eighty-one cycles, Dumb felt that he had entered his peak condition. The true qi in his body was surging, and the second golden body in his chest seemed to have shrunk slightly. As for the golden body in his dantian, it had already reached a height of six inches. He knew that after cultivating for a night, his power had improved to a certain extent. He slowly withdrew the true qi that was circulating in his dantian.
Dumb woke up from his meditative state and looked at the sky outside. It was already dusk, and the sun was gradually setting. He knew that it was already the evening of the next day. A cruel smile appeared on Dumb's face. Assassin's Guild, Lord, I'm coming. The Grim Reaper shall collect all of your sinful souls.
Dumb floated down and casually washed his face. He then opened the door to Phoenix Slayer's room and used his battle qi to control his voice. "Phoenix Slayer, I'm ready."
The door opened, and Phoenix Slayer walked out with a tired expression. He forced a smile on his pale face and said, "Are you ready? It's still early, so let's wait for the sky to turn dark before leaving. I'll go get you something to eat. " Dumb grabbed Phoenix Slayer's shoulder, and Phoenix Slayer's body trembled. He said in fear, "What … What are you doing?" This seemed to have become Dumb's habit.
Dumb was startled, and he said, "What's wrong with you? Did you get a fright? You must have been guarding me the entire time today, right? Thank you. Without you, I wouldn't have had the opportunity to take revenge so quickly. "Phoenix Slayer heaved a sigh of relief and awkwardly said," There's no need to thank me. Don't we have an agreement? I'm helping you to take revenge. Go back to your room and wait. I'll be right back. "After saying this, he turned around and walked toward the hotel's lobby.
Dumb sighed softly as he looked at Phoenix Slayer's back. He didn't know what kind of feeling he had toward Phoenix Slayer. He saw the shadow of Ice on Phoenix Slayer's body, but there were many differences between Phoenix Slayer and Ice. Dumb forcefully shook off his chaotic thoughts and told himself that he should be thinking about how to take revenge and how to kill people. He would never be fated to do such things. He returned to his room with a gloomy mood.
After a short while, Phoenix Slayer returned with a tray in her hands. Occasionally, there would be two dishes and a few steamed buns. He hadn't eaten anything for an entire day, and when he saw the fragrant dishes, Dumb couldn't help but feel hungry. He grabbed one of his favorite steamed buns and took a bite. Then, he mumbled, "Thank you, Phoenix Slayer. If I failed to take revenge today, this would have been my last dinner."
Phoenix Slayer's body trembled, and he placed the tray in his hands to the side. He lowered his head and said, "Don't talk nonsense. You're so powerful, and you'll definitely be able to kill all of those assassins. I, I'll wait for you to come back. "As she said this, she handed the chopsticks to Dumb. Her hand trembled slightly, and she didn't hold onto the chopsticks. The chopsticks slipped out of her hands. Dumb reacted quickly, and he caught the chopsticks in his hands. With a smile, he said, "Why are you even more nervous than me? It's not like you're going to take revenge. I'll definitely do my best to protect myself and come back alive. The agreement between us hasn't been completed yet! "As he said this, he reached for the food on the plate with the chopsticks. Right at this time, Phoenix Slayer suddenly cried out in alarm, and the blood drained from her face.
Dumb was given a fright, and he stopped what he was doing. Puzzled, he asked, "What's wrong with you today? It's so strange! Are you feeling unwell somewhere? "
Phoenix Slayer shook her head, and said, "I'm fine. I'm just worried about you. I won't disturb your meal, and I'll leave first. You don't need to tell me when you leave. I hope … I hope you can come back safely. "After saying this, she quickly ran out of Dumb's room. As he watched Phoenix Slayer leave, a strange feeling welled up in Dumb's heart. He lightly shook his head, picked up some food, and placed it in his mouth.
Phoenix Slayer quickly ran back to her room and shut the door. She covered her face with her hands and wept silently. Her tears flowed down from the gaps between her fingers, and the front of her clothes was wet.
After Dumb finished his meal, the sky gradually darkened, and the curtain of night gradually descended upon the human world. He took off his jacket, and the Giant Spirit Serpent Armor was revealed. He stored the divine dragon's blood inside the armor, and he thought to himself, If the situation turns bad today, I might have to summon the Holy Evil. After all, there are so many assassins in the Grand Ducal Residence, and there's also the unfathomable Master. It's unknown whether or not I can successfully take revenge. Dumb tightened the Hell King Sword's leather pouch, opened the window, and floated out. Under the cover of the black Giant Spirit Serpent Armor, as long as one wasn't paying close attention, they wouldn't be able to see him in the air. After glancing at Phoenix Slayer's window, Dumb exhaled the impure air in his chest, and with the help of his true energy, he rushed toward the Grand Ducal Residence at lightning speed. The time for revenge had finally arrived.
