27 Assassination (1)

Yang Shi already left the arena, so regretting means nothing.

" Arrgh, How can I forget such important work?" Yang Shi cursed to himself, alas regret has no medicine.

" Ok, boy. Don't worry. Once you become a powerful assassin, Money will become dirt." Yang Shi consoled to himself, the only thing he could do now.

Yang Shi came back to the inn and took rest. The battle between Abyss Lord and him gave Yang Shi great benefit. Not only his foundation solidified, but he also reached the Seventh Stage of[ Spiritual Ascension Realm]

" Huuuuu. Two more stages and I will reach Primordial Spirit awakening realm." Yang Shi thought to himself. After paying another hefty sum or the dinner, Yang Shi slept soundly.

The next day, he spent his time in the courtyard of the inn, practicing Cresent Wind Blade and Flame Spike. His practice over Flame Spike went great. Yang Shi believed, after some days, he will able to utilize the technique.

After sunset, Yang Shi went out again. This time his target is: Blood Moon Hall.

Blood Moon Hall is the most powerful Assassination organization here. Peoples says that, it is the faction of a powerful force, So till now, nobody was able to eradicate them. The Blood moon Hall has its own team of assassins, but they send out bounties.

So anyone can get a reward as long as they complete the task.

Yang Shi went there in the hope to pick up some bounties and earn easy money. Yang Shi reached an abandoned street. There is nothing to except an old, broken shop.

" I think I reached there." Yang Shi carefully entered the shop.

*ZZZZZZZZ* Suddenly a snoring sound frightened him.

" WHO?" Yang Shi asked cautiously.

" Why did you come here, Youngman?" an old man asked. The drool as still dripping from his mouth.

" I heard, the Blood Moon Hall's branch is here? I came to get some bounty. I wish to become an assassin." Yang Shi said.

"Youngster, an assassin is a bloody and violent profession. Have you really prepared yourself?" The old man slowly lifted his head. His dark, aged eyes peered into Yang Shi. Despite this, Yang Shi maintained his calm and controlled his breathing. He even smiled sincerely with his eyes.

Although he couldn't see through the old man, Yang Shi knew that this old man was also still inspecting him

[ A normal person in an abnormal place, Is the most dangerous. In all those movies, These types of old men are true experts.

"Youngsters will always be attracted towards blood and violence, huh?" The Old man sighed. " Getting into Blood Moon Hall requires neither money nor any identity. Just accept the task and do it in time.

" Here is your first task." The old man gave Yang Shi a scroll.

" Huh, What's this?" Yang Shi opened the scroll. A photo of a middle aged man was described there.

" Go to Black Sand Town, Which is 50 kilometers far from here. Bring back this person's head till tomorrow night." The Old man said plainly.

After Yang Shi fully read the scroll, it magically combusted into red flames and engulfed the palm of Yang Shi. Yang Shi hurriedly tried to put it off, but the flame was engraved as a blood colored moon tattoo, on the backside of his palm.

" What's this?" Yang Shi asked the old man, pointing at the blood moon tattoo.

" This is Blood Moon Seal. When you will kill your target, It will vanish." The Old man explained.

" What's the reward?" Yang Shi asked, clearing his throat.

" Hmmm, About Fifteen Thousand Gold coins?" The Old man probed.

" WHAT!!" [ Fifteen Thousand Gold Coins!! FUCK! THAT'S A LOT.] Yang Shi screamed in his heart, but didn't show it on outside.

*Ahem* " I don't lack money, The price is a little low. How about some Spirit Gathering Pills?" Yang Shi said.

" Hmmm, I can only give you six pills."

" Six pills with Fifteen Thousand Gold Coins. Deal" Yang Shi hurriedly agreed and left. Three pills cost Five Thousand Gold coins, so Six costs Ten thousand gold coins.

" Remember the deadline, boy." The Old man

shouted from the back.

" I will remember." Yang Shi also shouted.

" Interesting Kid." The old man smiled.

...............................

Without wasting time, Yang Shi hurriedly packed the Dark Twilight and utilized Myriad Ghost Steps to rush towards Black Sand town.

Black Sand Town is very small compared to Misty Tower city. The person Yang Shi had to kill, called Zhu Wei, the Third brother of Black Sand Town's town supervisor.

In just an hour, Yang Shi reached the Black Sand Town. He went to an inn and asked for dinner. The price here is way lower than Misty Town City. It only cost Forty Gold Coins.

While eating, Yang Shi tried to dig out some information about Zhu Wei. He called a waiter boy and gave him two gold coins. Te waiter's eye shone and he spewed all the things he knew.

Yang Shi came to know that this Zhu Wei is very notorious here. Because of his big brother, Who is the Town Supervisor, nobody could touch him.

It is said that, He also colluded with local bandits, and help them to sell their stolen loots in the Misty Tower City. He also raped a few women of this town and impregnated them. But no one dare to stand against him.

" This Zhu Wei is really a bad dude." Yang Shi thought, while sipping tea. " But he is at the first level of Primordial Spirit Awakening Realm. I guess I have to clean shit tonight. The faster, the better." Yang Shi decided to finish him tonight.

After everyone went to sleep, a black-clothed figure dashed out of the inn and went toward a luxurious villa.

Armed Guards are monitoring the entire villa. All of them are at [ Spiritual Ascension Realm]

*UGH..* A guard groaned and tumbled down. A black figure appeared behind him and pulled out a dark dagger from the guard's throat.

This figure is naturally Yang Shi. He changed his cloth to the guard's cloth and went into the villa. Yang Shi could already feel the thrill and the excitement, for some unknown reason.

As he entered the villa. the number of guards increased. Yang Shi cautiously proceed into the villa, but stopped midway.

He reached the main hall and saw some people were in the meeting. Yang Shi stopped because he saw his target- Zhu Wei.

" Young Miss, Zhu. Third Master Zhu is actually doing well, He is training our guard very strictly. You must have heard some false news." A middle-aged man said, clasping his hands.

" Yes, Elder Sister, please listen to me. I didn't do any of this." Zhu Wei was explaining to a woman. The women looked beautiful, it seems, she is in her twenties.

" So smuggling the loots of bandits is false accusation?" The woman asked angrily.

" Well." Zhu Wei rubbed his nose but didn't deny it.

*PA*

A crisp slapping sound resounded. The woman slapped Zhu Wei.

" You are ruining our reputation. Begone from my sight now." The woman said angrily.

" Yes, Elder Sister." Zhu Wei nodded. But a trace of evil smile could be seen on his face, It seems he didn't mind the slap after all, but on the other hand he got excited from it.

Watching the scene from outside, Yang Shi thought, [ This woman seems the elder sister of Zhu Wei. She looks righteous]

Poor Yang Shi, Didn't know that what he gonna see next, will crumble his mind.
