51: Paying attention to appearance doesn't mean being a lecher; a stunning female assassin.

The next day.

“Today’s Intel (Orange): Helian Ba spent a fortune hiring a killer from Seven Kill Tower to assassinate the Host.

The killer is a peerless beauty with Yin-Yang Realm Cultivation Level.

The danger level is S-rank.

The killer is already on her way, and the Host, being lustful, needs to be wary of her beauty.”

“You damn System, who’s lustful? Come out, I promise I won’t beat you to death.”

Jiang Yunfan was furious.

Was he lustful?

He just valued appearance, that’s all.

It had nothing to do with being lustful.

Slander.

Pure slander.

However, he still had to be careful; Yin-Yang Realm Cultivation Level was not something to be trifled with.

Jiang Yunfan planned to make an early escape.

As he was about to leave, he ran into Fang Qingxue.

“Where are you going?”

“Business is bad, so of course, I’m going out to find business.

I’m in a hurry.

Give me the Spirit Stones and I’ll tell you your fortune.”

Fang Qingxue took out another 100,000 Medium Grade Spirit Stones.

Jiang Yunfan collected the Spirit Stones.

“System, give me Fang Qingxue’s fortune intel for her trip to Myriad Poison Forest.”

“Today’s Intel (red): Fang Qingxue will be intercepted by demonic cultivators from the Joyful Union Sect on her way to Myriad Poison Forest.

She will escape safely, albeit with a fright.

After arriving at Myriad Poison Forest, she will use her Spiritual Sense to search for a cave.

She will find star net grass.

Inside the cave, there is a five-colored spider.

She will be poisoned in a great battle with the five-colored spider and return empty-handed.”

Jiang Yunfan said, “On your journey, you will be intercepted by demonic cultivators from the Joyful Union Sect, but you will escape safely, albeit with a fright.

The cave with the star net grass hides a five-colored spider.

You won’t be able to defeat it and will be poisoned.

If you insist on going to collect the star net grass, you had best prepare antidote pills.

I suggest you buy a few Talismans to deal with the five-colored spider.”

Fang Qingxue thought, “I want to see if you’ve calculated correctly.

If not, I’ll definitely come back and smash your signboard.”

She left Tianji Pavilion.

Jiang Yunfan said to Zhang Fei, “Someone is coming to assassinate me.

Tianji Pavilion will be temporarily closed.

You go home first and wait for my message.”

He took out 50,000 Medium Grade Spirit Stones and gave them to him, “Take these Spirit Stones.”

Zhang Fei accepted the Spirit Stones without ceremony, as this small amount of Spirit Stones was merely a drop in the bucket for the Pavilion Master.

“Thank you, Pavilion Master.”

Just as Zhang Fei was about to leave, Jiang Yunfan called out to him, “Wait.”

“Does the Pavilion Master have any other instructions?”

“Soon, a peerless beauty will come to Tianji Pavilion.

As soon as this woman arrives, spend Spirit Stones to find someone to go to the Helian Family and report to Helian Ba, just say there’s a peerless beauty.”

Jiang Yunfan planned to use someone else to kill.

Zhang Fei knew that the Pavilion Master definitely wanted to scheme against Helian Ba, and he also disliked Helian Ba, that profligate son.

“Pavilion Master, rest assured, I will handle this matter properly.”

“Go!”

After Zhang Fei left, Jiang Yunfan closed Tianji Pavilion, hung up a “Temporarily Closed” sign, and then slipped away.

During his seclusion, the System had sent a lot of intel, including several orange Opportunity intel.

Now that he had time, he could seize these Opportunities.

After leaving the city, Jiang Yunfan opened the System map and found Sword Emperor Mountain.

On Sword Emperor Mountain, there was a sword-shaped grass that helped in comprehending Sword Intent.

He rode the Purple Lightning Vulture towards Sword Emperor Mountain...

Lu Yun arrived at Fengyue City.

“It’s really lively.”

He looked around.

There were many street vendors, but he didn’t know where the thunder-struck wood his elder brother mentioned was.

He searched one by one.

A shifty-looking vendor saw Lu Yun lingering in front of the stalls, and he quickly called out, “Little brother, come and take a look.

These things are all treasures I found from the Ancient Ruins, all rare and precious.

If you’re lucky, you might even pick out an incomplete sacred artifact.

Last time, someone picked up an incomplete sacred artifact from me by chance.”

This vendor was the same person who had a stall in Helian City.

Jiang Yunfan had picked up an incomplete sacred artifact from him.

Lu Yun stepped forward to look and saw a piece of pitch-black wood.

When the vendor saw Lu Yun’s gaze fall on this pitch-black wood, he immediately said, “Little brother, you have good eyes.

This piece of wood is not ordinary wood, but hundred-year thunder-struck wood.”

“hundred-year thunder-struck wood is a top-grade Artifact Refining Material.

Weapons refined from it can restrain evil spirits, and even just carrying it can make evil spirits retreat three paces.”

He exaggerated the functions of the thunder-struck wood to the sky.

Lu Yun had read many ancient books while cleaning the Lingxiao Sect’s Inheritance Hall, including records of various treasures.

hundred-year thunder-struck wood was indeed a top-grade Artifact Refining Material, but the one in front of him was thousand-year thunder-struck wood, even rarer and a top-tier Artifact Refining Material.

“How do I not see it as hundred-year thunder-struck wood?”

“Why not? Look at its quality, there’s still residual thunder power on it.”

“How many Spirit Stones?”

“380,000, not too much, right!”

“But I only have a little over 200,000 Spirit Stones, I can’t afford it.”

Lu Yun wasn’t a fool; how could he not know this person was extorting him?

He feigned to leave.

The vendor quickly stopped him, “Just take what you have!”

Lu Yun took out 230,000 Spirit Stones from his storage ring, “That’s all I have.”

230,000, he could still make a big profit.

The vendor knew that his thunder-struck wood was just ordinary thunder-struck wood, not hundred-year thunder-struck wood at all, and was only worth 10,000 Spirit Stones.

“Okay, I’ll take a loss this once and sell it to you.”

Money for goods.

Lu Yun left with the thunder-struck wood, secretly overjoyed.

The vendor truly didn’t know his goods, mistaking thousand-year thunder-struck wood for ordinary thunder-struck wood, thinking he had sold it at the price of hundred-year thunder-struck wood, but in reality, he suffered a huge loss...

A stunning Woman in Red arrived in Helian City.

As soon as she entered the city, she became the center of attention, with an extremely highReturn rate (rate of people turning their heads to look).

The Woman in Red arrived outside Tianji Pavilion, only to find the door tightly shut, with a “Temporarily Closed” sign hanging on it.

She did not linger but turned and left, though she did not leave Helian City.

Zhang Fei, who had been watching, saw the Woman in Red and guessed that this woman was the person the Pavilion Master had mentioned.

After witnessing the Woman in Red enter the Dragon Gate Inn, he immediately stopped a passerby with Innate Realm Cultivation Level.

“Go help me deliver a message to the Helian Family, tell the Helian Family members to report to Young Master Helian Ba that a peerless beauty has arrived at the Dragon Gate Inn.

I’ll give you 10,000 Spirit Stones.”

The passerby, hearing that delivering a message would earn him 10,000 Spirit Stones, quickly agreed, “I’ll deliver the message for you.”

Zhang Fei took out 5,000 Spirit Stones, “This is a deposit.

After delivering the message, come back here to find me, and I’ll pay you the remaining 5,000 Spirit Stones.”

The passerby left with the Spirit Stones.

Soon, the news that a peerless beauty had arrived in Helian City reached Helian Ba’s ears.

Upon hearing about a peerless beauty, Helian Ba couldn’t help but become restless.

Last time, he encountered a beauty but Heavenly Secret Master ruined it.

This time, he was determined to get this woman.

He left the Helian Family with his men.

Arriving at the Dragon Gate Inn, the innkeeper immediately went forward to greet Helian Ba, fawning, “Young Master Helian visiting Dragon Gate Inn makes the inn shine.”

Helian Ba said, “I heard a peerless beauty has arrived at Dragon Gate Inn.

Is this true?”

The innkeeper knew Helian Ba was lustful, and this Woman in Red would certainly not escape his clutches.

He dared not be kind and conceal it.

“Yes, a Woman in Red has checked into Dragon Gate Inn.

She’s in Room 3.”

Helian Ba smiled evilly, “Drive everyone out for me.

I’ve booked the inn.

No one is allowed to enter.”

The innkeeper quickly responded, “Yes.”

He immediately sent people to ask the guests to leave the inn and even offered compensation.
