351: Understand prices

"What kind of business does the guest want to do with us? Whether it's murder, theft, or infiltration, we excel at all of them."

"There's nothing you can't think of that we can't do. Of course, some specific tasks come with very high prices."

The Shopkeeper came out to greet the two, led them to a basement, and revealed an excited smile.

Compared to the Tianji Pavilion, their Wind and Rain Tower was a filthy organization hidden in the sewers, doing almost any job, and thus had many enemies.

They were naturally worried about retaliation, which is why they were so secretive. If the secret code wasn't given correctly, they would absolutely not receive anyone.

Recently, they had been suppressed everywhere, causing their business to be extremely dismal. If this continued, many people would likely leave the Wind and Rain Tower.

So, when the Waiter saw that the two were very wealthy, he immediately chose to receive them, bringing them directly here to let them properly examine the price list.

"Their services here are very comprehensive and considerate. You can choose to kill the target using any method or any weapon."

"For example, when facing your enemy, we can use the most brutal methods, making him watch his entire family be killed before sending him to the afterlife. Such methods are priced very low here, and since you two are new customers, I can give you a 30% discount."

The Shopkeeper looked very excited; he desperately needed this order to maintain his tavern's business, otherwise, he would go bankrupt.

The two exchanged glances, never expecting the Shopkeeper here to be so easy to talk to, which truly made them look at him in a new light.

"Shopkeeper, since you've put it that way, we'll be straightforward too. Our purpose in coming here this time is to hire you to help us infiltrate the Taixuan Immortal Kingdom."

"Just infiltrate one Immortal Kingdom."

Du Xian directly took out 150,000 immortal fate stones.

This was the price for infiltrating a force.

The Shopkeeper's face immediately lit up with joy, and he quickly accepted it.

"It seems you're a bit short on money here. I'm the opposite; I'm very rich. I wonder if you sell information here?"

Du Xian took out his money pouch and weighed it twice. The Shopkeeper's eyes immediately widened, and an excited smile appeared on his face.

"Of course, we sell it, of course! As long as you wish, we can do any job. Just tell me what kind of information you want, and I'll immediately send someone to investigate!"

The Shopkeeper rubbed his hands, appearing extremely fawning.

"Good, I want you to help me investigate something: who paid you to infiltrate our Tianxuan Immortal Kingdom?"

"It was your people who infiltrated our Tianxuan Immortal Kingdom. We found out about this through investigation, so I hope you can be honest."

Du Xian smiled slightly, then leaned back in his chair, looking calm and composed.

The Shopkeeper's expression suddenly turned ugly. They finally understood why a group of Tianji Pavilion undercover agents had suddenly exposed themselves just to obtain some information; it turned out to be an order from this young man.

"I am a very principled person, and the other party is also our client. We will absolutely not betray any client's information. You don't need to say anything about this; even if I die right in front of you, I will never expose my customer."

The Shopkeeper immediately put on an arrogant expression, then turned his head away.

"It seems you are indeed a very principled person. In that case, I won't say more."

"I'm placing an assassination order now. If you can kill this Prefect of the Taixuan Immortal Kingdom, I am willing to pay 500,000 immortal fate stones."

The Shopkeeper was first stunned, then his eyes widened in shock, and a joyous smile appeared on his face.

"Are you serious?! How much are you willing to pay?!"

He even doubted if there was something wrong with his ears; this price was simply too high.

"Five hundred thousand immortal fate stones."

Du Xian repeated his words from earlier, a calm expression on his face.

He immediately became excited. A Prefect's Cultivation was at most at the Golden Immortal Realm; killing him would be effortless.

They could simply send out some Golden Immortal Experts as assassins and easily kill the target.

To earn a full 500,000 so easily was simply a massive profit for them!

Du Xian directly revealed the Prefect's name. It was that person who had originally hired the Wind and Rain Tower to help them infiltrate; this fellow had to die.

Du Xian slammed the money bag onto the table, then lightly coughed twice.

"As for how this guy dies, I demand that you make it as cruel as possible, and you must cut off his head and hang it on the city wall."

The Shopkeeper was slightly startled upon hearing this, but he gritted his teeth. Such an act would normally require extra payment, but the other party had already offered so much that it would be unreasonable to ask for more.

"Alright, honored guest, I'll make a friend of you. This time, I won't ask you for any extra money; consider it a complimentary service from us!"

The Shopkeeper knew the risks involved in doing this; they could very likely be targeted by the Powerhouses of the Taixuan Immortal Kingdom, but he had no choice for the sake of making money.

Du Xian finally nodded in satisfaction, and his gaze towards the other party even held a hint of goodwill.

"With this matter concluded, we shall return first. As for the future outcome, I will naturally send people to investigate."

Du Xian left with Liang Yun.

On the way back, Liang Yun's face showed a puzzled expression.

"Senior Brother, are immortal fate stones not worth much?"

Liang Yun was naturally shocked by how lavishly her Senior Brother had just spent money.

She had received a large amount of resources, including many immortal fate stones. If these things weren't worth much, then it might be possible, as it would be reasonable for Revered Master not to give her so many valuable items.

After all, in her understanding, it was indeed so: how could a newly initiated Disciple be qualified to enjoy so many resources?

"Do you know how many immortal fate stones the person we were just going to assassinate can earn in a month?"

Du Xian smiled slightly. Now was the time to educate his Junior Sister about current prices.

Liang Yun shook her head, somewhat puzzled, a curious expression on her face.

"Senior Brother, I truly don't know. Please enlighten me!"

Du Xian directly held up one finger.

"A Golden Immortal Expert can only earn 1,000 immortal fate stones a month."

"That guy we were just going to assassinate, he's only worth 1,000 a month."

Although Liang Yun didn't know the prices, she clearly understood the division of Realms. This guy's Realm was so high, yet he could only earn so little money in a month!
