394: Killer House's requirements
The Bearded Man's words caused Zhou Luo to pause.
He turned slightly, his deep eyes like Stars watching him, revealing no emotion.
What he didn't expect was that he was hiding his cultivation at the Foundation Establishment Realm, yet the other party, a Qi Training cultivator, could see through it.
That's right, the Bearded Man in front of him only had a Qi Training stage, eighth level cultivation, but the other party could accurately say his name, meaning there was also a Foundation Establishment cultivator hidden in this room.
His eyes flashed, and his Divine Sense spread out like a tide, trying to find the other party's trace.
But the entire house was shrouded by a Second Order formation. His Divine Sense was like being trapped in an airtight Space, unable to penetrate at all.
This surprised Zhou Luo somewhat.
It seems the Killer Tower is indeed extraordinary, and its Foundation in Qingyuan City is higher than he imagined.
Since the other party didn't want him to know, he wouldn't force it.
More than that, he was more curious why the other party would suddenly say this.
"You mean someone wants to kill me?" Zhou Luo stared at him without blinking, unable to discern any emotion.
Facing a Foundation Establishment cultivator, the Bearded Man smiled slightly: "As long as there are people, there are grievances. Although Zhou Alchemist lives a secluded life, there are quite a few people who want to kill you."
Zhou Luo raised his eyebrows slightly.
After he cooperated with Tianxia Tavern, he didn't know how many people were secretly envious of him.
Most of these people were wary of his status and influence, so they could only secretly trip him up.
There were also those like Fang Li, who openly ostracized him.
Zhou Luo had long been mentally prepared for this.
"So you want me to pay for my life?" Zhou Luo retorted.
Since the other party spoke so frankly, it must be driven by profit.
He could only guess that the other party wanted him to pay.
In the Killer Tower, there was also an unwritten rule: when you feel you cannot resist the Killer Tower's assassination, you can first pay to buy your life, so the Killer Tower will not send people to take the order.
Of course, these things must be done before the assassination.
If the Killer Tower has already accepted the assassination mission, then unless the assassination fails, you cannot escape.
The Bearded Man smiled calmly: "Zhou Alchemist is indeed smart, but we don't want money."
"Oh?" Zhou Luo asked in confusion: "What do you want?"
The other party seemed to be well-prepared and must have been paying attention to him for a long time.
Hearing this, the Bearded Man stepped aside and pointed to a passage over there, saying: "My Master will discuss this matter with you."
The Master mentioned by the man should be the Foundation Establishment Expert who discovered his identity.
After thinking it over, Zhou Luo decided to go and see.
After all, being targeted by an organization like the Killer Tower was not a good thing; he needed to figure out what the other party wanted.
Zhou Luo walked towards there calmly and confidently.
The Bearded Man just watched him quietly like this, without following.
Walking there, Zhou Luo saw a corridor. The corridor wasn't long, and paintings hung on both sides. The colors of the paintings were dark, and the depicted scenes were very depressing, giving people a very uncomfortable feeling.
Zhou Luo walked through the corridor and came to the door of the room inside.
Click—
The door opened automatically, and a young man in a white shirt sat inside.
He had sword-like eyebrows and Star-like eyes, and a pair of phoenix eyes looked over. His eyes were deep, revealing no emotion.
"I didn't expect Zhou Alchemist to come here in person." His voice was flat, with a hint of surprise.
According to his understanding, the other party was a cautious person who wouldn't take any risks. He didn't expect him to come alone to meet him.
Wasn't he afraid this was a trap?
Zhou Luo stepped into the room and said unhurriedly: "If the Killer Tower wants to kill someone, it shouldn't take so much effort, right?"
He was certain that the other party must have something to ask of him, so he wanted to know what they wanted.
The man smiled calmly, raised his right hand, and a vermilion armchair appeared beside him: "Sit."
After Zhou Luo sat down, the man continued: "I can have the Killer Tower withdraw the assassination attempt on Zhou Alchemist, but the premise is that Zhou Alchemist must do me a favor."
The other party did not hide it and directly stated his purpose.
Zhou Luo was not in a hurry to speak, waiting for the other party to continue stating his request.
A moment later, the man spoke again: "I heard that Zhou Alchemist has a close relationship with Wang Yuwei of the Azure Spring True Sect?"
When the three words Wang Yuwei came out, Zhou Luo's heart sank.
He hadn't heard this name for a long time. The last time he heard it was when the other party sent someone to give him a Foundation Establishment magic sword.
After more than ten years, he didn't expect to hear her name from someone else again.
But what connection did she have with the Killer Tower?
"She and I are friends," Zhou Luo replied.
His relationship with Wang Yuwei was actually hard to define, but when he thought of her again, he suddenly remembered the other party's special Physique.
Luan and Phoenix Harmony Body.
That's right, her Physique seemed to be the same as that Dual Cultivation Cultivation Methods.
Could it be that her special Physique was suitable for Dual Cultivation?
Zhou Luo secretly suppressed this guess and continued to look at the other party.
After getting this answer, the man smiled and said: "That's enough. I hope Zhou Alchemist can introduce me."
It turned out that the other party's goal was not himself, but Wang Yuwei.
This surprised Zhou Luo somewhat.
"I don't know how to contact her, and with the Killer Tower's capabilities, contacting her shouldn't be difficult, right?" Zhou Luo said.
The Killer Tower's influence spread throughout the entire Fire Cloud Country, from Immortal Sect Elders and important court officials to street vendors and old men by the roadside. Its Foundation could be said to be extremely deep.
For such a behemoth, wanting to see an Immortal Sect Disciple shouldn't be difficult, right?
However, the man showed a hint of helplessness: "She has some misunderstandings with our Killer Tower, and coupled with the fact that she is in the Azure Spring True Sect, we... have no way to contact her."
The Azure Spring True Sect is the most special Sect in the Jinyun Continent because its internal members are all female Immortals. It is not easy for the Killer Tower to infiltrate it.
Moreover, as a Disciple valued by a Golden Core True Person, she basically lives a secluded life and rarely leaves the Sect gate, making her even harder to approach.
After several unsuccessful attempts at contact, the Killer Tower could only focus its attention on Zhou Luo.
Because back then, the matter of the other party sending someone from thousands of miles away to deliver a Foundation Establishment magic tool was widely spread in the Qingyuan Domain.
It is said that Zhou Luo was the other party's lifesaver, even more important than the Zhou Family she belonged to.
"What exactly do you want to see her about?" Zhou Luo frowned.
But the other party didn't want to reveal too much.
"Please don't worry about this matter, Zhou Alchemist. You just need to help us make a trip to the Azure Spring True Sect and hand the envelope to her."
"As long as you can complete this, I can guarantee that as long as you are in the Qingyuan Domain, you will not be assassinated by the Killer Tower, no matter how high the price."
