Chapter 400: An old friend on the bounty list
"Why, do you know him?" The sword spirit came closer and asked curiously.
More than just recognition.
Lin Han frowned, "This Ning Ziru, it's him."
Gu Qingyue was on the assassination list of Yama Palace.
As an old friend, it is impossible for him to accept this assassination mission, but this does not prevent him from going to remind Gu Qingyue.
"What about Gu Qingyue? She seems to be quite close. Why don't we take this mission as well?"
The sword spirit's eyes flashed with an inexplicable light, "Take on a few more quests, and I'll soon be able to buy a sword that suits my needs."
"If you want to die, I won't stop you."
"What do you mean?" the sword spirit looked up and asked in confusion.
"What I mean is, if you don't want to die, don't answer it."
Lin Han took out a bag from the storage ring and walked into the locker room. After a while, he walked out.
At this time, he was dressed in black, with a black scarf covering his face, a black hat, and a blood-red cloak.
"Hey?"
The sword spirit found it interesting and changed into the same outfit, with a broken iron sword hanging around her waist.
Then, the two checked out of the room and headed to the south of the city, where the ship that the sword spirit mentioned was docked.
Looking at the dozen or so ships anchored ahead, Lin Han walked up, bought two tickets, and boarded the ship.
"Get out of the way! A good dog doesn't block the road!"
An arrogant voice came from behind, and Lin Han was pushed back to the side.
Eight figures walked by as if no one was around and boarded the ship.
"They bumped into you. Do you want to teach them a lesson?" asked the sword spirit with a frown.
"never mind."
Lin Han shook his head.
At this moment, he didn't want to cause any more trouble. Besides, it wasn't worth his acting on impulse.
Lin Han chose an inconspicuous corner on the deck and sat down.
The eight figures arrogantly circled around and shouted as if the ship belonged to them.
He stopped at the bow of the boat, took out some wine and meat and started eating and drinking.
"Hmph, they are nothing but a group of ants at the ninth level of the Quasi-Emperor Realm." The sword spirit said disdainfully.
Wait until three rounds of wine have passed.
"Haha, that Ning Ziru, he was unlucky to have run into us. Wait until we chop off his head and claim the reward at Yama Palace. Then we can have a good reunion."
"Ning Ziru's bounty is worth ten Immortal Realm Pills. I heard that his true cultivation level is only the first level of the Great Emperor Realm. It would be easy for us to kill him."
"Haha, that's right. Give him a few more days, considering his death is approaching..."
……
Hearing this, the sword spirit was somewhat speechless and said, "What bad luck! Their assassination target is Ning Ziru. There are too many wolves and too little meat. This is very difficult to deal with. Why not just kill them first to avoid more trouble later."
"Don't forget, the killers of Yama Palace have no sufficient reason not to kill each other. Since you have joined Yama Palace, don't break the rules casually." Lin Han said.
"Then let them snatch it away so easily?" the sword spirit said dissatisfiedly.
"If this mission was so easy to complete, Ning Ziru wouldn't be on the bounty list. Let's take a look first."
Lin Han did not underestimate these eight assassins from the Yama Palace.
He also knew that the cultivators in this world usually gathered in groups of three or five, and almost all of them had a set of powerful combined attack techniques.
Just like the hunting team in the Forest of No Return, the brother and sister Lei Yuntian and Lei Beibei.
But it's just as he said.
If Ning Ziru was really that easy to kill, no one would spend such a huge price to put Ning Ziru's name on the bounty list.
"Humph……"
The sword spirit looked elsewhere, and suddenly she uttered a soft "Why does she look so familiar... Oh, isn't that her?"
She remembered that the fiery figure in front of her was exactly the female swordsman she and Lin Han met when they went to Yama Palace to register.
"Have you noticed that she seems to be different from other sword cultivators? She seems to be very powerful." The sword spirit's eyes flickered as he muttered softly.
"Don't meddle in other people's business." Lin Han said.
He naturally also noticed the extraordinary qualities of this female swordsman wielding a heavy sword.
The female swordsman standing at the bow seemed to sense the gazes of the two men. She turned around and was slightly stunned.
She gave Lin Han a provocative smile and then looked away.
"Hey? What does she mean?"
The sword spirit stood up unconvinced and walked over.
However, she just walked around the bow and then walked back.
Looking at the female swordsman again, the sword spirit said thoughtfully, "We have to be careful. She is a master. I sensed an indescribable domineering sword intent from her. What if she also accepted Ning Ziru's assassination mission? You have to be careful."
Half an hour later.
The ship slowly took off and flew towards its destination.
Lin Han and Jian Ling sat on one side of the ship's deck, studying the map on the parchment. After all, they had just arrived, so it would be good for them to familiarize themselves with the geographical environment.
However, the Xuantian Continent is so huge, so huge that it is unimaginable, and there is also a very vast ocean.
This reminded Lin Han of the East China Sea, where all kinds of ferocious beasts were found.
"You've been staring at the sea for so long. What's so good about it?"
His thoughts were interrupted, and Lin Han said calmly, "This is a Feng Shui treasure land for cultivation, of course I have to take a closer look."
Suddenly, a loud noise came from the bow of the ship.
"Beautiful lady, I just asked your name and you told us to go away. That's really disrespectful."
At this time, the eight arrogant assassins from Yama Palace were surrounding the female swordsman with beautiful features and teasing her.
One of the assassins was about to attack, but was nimbly intercepted by the female swordsman.
There was no shame or anger on her face, but she faced the eight people with a smile.
"I've told you what I should have said. If you're still rude to me, don't blame me."
"Hehe? Interesting. Do you still want to dispose of the eight of us right here?"
"That is, I don't know. What do you want to do with us?"
"I say, why not join us? We guarantee that you will enjoy happiness that you have never experienced in your entire life."
The eight people behaved so unruly and arrogantly that they attracted the frowns and stares of other Yama Palace assassins around them.
Being so high-profile and arrogant is really disgusting.
However, they completely ignored the gazes of the people around them. It seems that they do this kind of thing every day.
The female swordsman's reaction aroused their desire even more. One of the assassins laughed lewdly and was about to make a move on the female swordsman.
But the female swordsman grabbed his finger and broke it.
Snapped!
"what!"
A scream of pain broke the silence on the deck.
The bones of his fingers were broken and he was unable to break free. The pain was so severe that the monk held his hands with his facial features distorted.
"Let, let go!"
"Let him go! Do you hear me?"
"Otherwise, I'm going to attack you!"
"I'll warn you again..."
……
The other seven assassins woke up as if from a dream and shouted angrily.
The nun's actions made them lose face in front of everyone.
"You can let me go, but you have to promise me not to do anything stupid again. Also, don't come within ten steps of me."
The assassin, who was still restrained, shouted angrily, "Who do you think you are? I gave you face and you...ah!"
"Since you don't agree, then these two fingers can stay."
The assassin was also afraid, and said with a pale face, "No, no! I promise, I promise you, isn't that enough? Let go!"
"Okay, I'm serious."
The female swordsman smiled and let go.
