However, he could only smile without being able to take it back, because his body was suddenly pierced through by lightning that struck straight through his heart. He fell like a worthless piece of trash thrown away carelessly by its owner.He had not expected that this would be his end. He truly had not believed it. But time proved that once Song Que had marked someone, they would die if they betrayed him. In truth, Song Que had not intended to kill him, because Bon Sei was useful to escort him to the capital of the Shi Empire.In an instant, more than two hundred hired assassins appeared in the air. They landed on the rooftops of the houses and buildings there, staring at the lone figure standing calmly.“Who are you? How dare you come to this village and kill someone!?”Song Que looked at the person who spoke to him. He appeared old, with white hair already covering his head.He was also accompanied by three people at his side, all emitting a powerful aura of oppression.“Me?” Song

More than ten people attacked Song Que. They came with burning rage, with only one thought in their minds—the death of the insect in front of them to avenge Dai Awan.Song Que smiled as he watched them, so eager to kill. He neither panicked nor moved. He simply stood there as if he were waiting for death. But who could know the schemes in his mind about how he intended to punish them? If he was not confident in his own abilities, then what would be the point of seeking out the Assassin Organization?Just as various weapons were about to stab into Song Que’s body, he immediately used the Earth Gravity Method, which was capable of creating a brief pause even against those of higher cultivation levels, while crushing those below his level. In that way, he could distinguish who needed to be killed first.There were three people who were not slammed to the ground. That indicated that those three were already above Song Que’s cultivation level. He raised his sword and summoned thunder, chan

Following the directions given by the person he had asked earlier, Song Que walked along the crowded streets without hurrying. He was not in too much of a rush at the moment.Three hundred meters did not take long to cover on foot. He arrived at a large gate bearing the words Treasure Pavilion. He immediately wanted to enter when two guards at the entrance stopped him, and one of them asked, “Please state your purpose, sir. This will make it easier for us to arrange things for you!”The guard spoke politely and gently, which surprised Song Que. There were many people who, even though they were merely guards, had great courage, and that often brought arrogance—looking down on others with only one eye!This time, however, he encountered a kind person, and that was good. There was a possibility that the owner was also a kind person.“I want to look for information,” Song Que said, explaining the purpose of his visit.“Please follow me, sir!”Song Que immediately followed behind the entra

A commotion erupted in the Information Hall of the Treasure Pavilion. There were many corpses lying around, and no one had expected something like this to happen. “Call Bao Qian here immediately!” The man looked furious, because not only were there bodies in the room, but many items had also been destroyed. As an information hall, there was a great deal of hidden intelligence stored there. Fortunately, formations still protected the valuable information kept within. Otherwise, someone would certainly be blamed for allowing such chaos to occur—and that someone would undoubtedly be him, the manager. It did not take long before Bao Qian arrived after being summoned. He was shocked upon seeing so many corpses in the room. “Bao Qian, what exactly has the Bao Clan done to cause such destruction in my place? Didn’t you say you would only borrow it for a while? Then why did a battle break out?” the manager of the Treasure Pavilion asked irritably. “I’m sorry, brother-in-law. I didn’t

Song Que still appeared calm as he observed the course of the auction. However, his mind was now in turmoil. He was still thinking about Gong Hye and Gong Hanbu, who were said to have been captured by the Bao Clan. If he acted recklessly, it would only burden himself. But if he did nothing, what would happen? Thinking about it made his heart restless. He stood up from his seat. Even if it meant risking his life, he had to save Gong Hye and Gong Hanbu. Whatever happened afterward could be dealt with later! He left the Treasure Pavilion… Song Que stopped when he had walked about a hundred meters away from the Pavilion. He spoke, "Come out. If you mean well, show your goodwill. If not—attack!" Ever since he was inside the auction, Song Que had already noticed someone watching him. But he had remained silent then, especially with so many people around. Now that no one was paying attention, he finally spoke. "Hurry up, I still have important matters to attend to!" The figure hiding be
