Chapter 168
However, although the "Master of the Qian Family" changed his expression, he still remained silent.
The young man in plain clothes did not mind and continued, "It is rumored that the Seventy-two Earthly Fiends and the Thirty-six Heavenly Gang killers of the Seven Killers Tower are all proficient in assassination and stealth techniques, making them formidable.
The Seventy-two Earthly Fiends are all martial artists who have at least reached the Tendons and Bones Realm.
They can alter their tendons and bones, disguise themselves, and adopt different identities seamlessly, making them undetectable.
As for the Thirty-six Heavenly Gang killers, they are even more impressive. Each of them is at least in the Internal Organs Realm, possessing various assassination secrets.
Moreover, the Internal Organs Realm experts of the Seven Killers Tower must have assassinated at least three martial artists of the same level to qualify for the position of Heavenly Gang.
The Thirty-six Heavenly Gang killers are divided into upper, middle, and lower twelve gangs. Judging by your cultivation and the divine technique you used earlier,
you must be one of the upper twelve gangs, right?"
The more the crowd listened, the more they felt shocked.
The power of the Seven Killers Tower was indeed terrifying.According to the young man in plain clothes, just the Seventy-two Earthly Fiends and Thirty-six Heavenly Gang killers already constituted an immensely powerful force.
One must know, the entire Cang County did not have many Internal Organs Realm experts.
It is uncertain if the entire state could even gather so many Internal Organs Realm experts.
With the power of the Seven Killers Tower, sweeping across a state would be easy.
The "Master of the Qian Family" originally did not want to respond, but as the young man in plain clothes spoke,
he finally couldn't hold back and spoke.
"Indeed, you are a disciple of Tianji Tower. You know so much about our Seven Killers Tower. However, isn't Tianji Tower always claiming to be absolutely neutral, not participating in any factional struggles? Doesn't your current behavior violate your principles?"
"Our Tianji Tower acts as we see fit. Why should we explain to you people who hide in the shadows?" the young man in plain clothes said indifferently.
"Recently, the Seven Killers Tower has been acting more and more unscrupulously, engaging in widespread assassinations, stirring up chaos among various sects and states, showing signs of affecting the stability of the human race. Do you really think no one dares to punish you?"
"Hahaha, don't speak so righteously. The unprecedented great turmoil in millennia is about to arrive. Who is not competing now? Do you Tianji Tower really think you are that noble? Is the human race's great situation something you can control?"
Unexpectedly, the "Master of the Qian Family" laughed heartily, his face full of mockery.
"Indeed, you have learned something!"
The young man in plain clothes looked serious, finally getting the information he wanted.
The recent actions of the Seven Killers Tower were indeed part of a larger scheme.
"Hmph, do you so-called righteous alliances really think you can cover the sky with one hand? Don't forget, our Seven Killers Tower is also a supreme sect with a millennia-long heritage. Do you think you can monopolize the information and seize the initiative? Do you really think the world's great situation can be controlled by you hypocrites?"
The "Master of the Qian Family" seemed to no longer care and revealed the intelligence of his own faction without any concern.
Since he was trapped this time, he naturally wanted to drag others down with him.
The young man in plain clothes felt a tremor in his heart, knowing that the situation was indeed developing as the tower master had predicted, towards a dire direction.
The surrounding guests listened to the conversation between the two, all looking confused, completely not understanding the meaning.
Only Lu Qing felt a movement in his heart.
He knew that the "millennia-long turmoil" they were talking about was probably related to the revival of spiritual energy.
It seemed that those top forces were indeed aware of the rise and fall of spiritual energy.
Moreover, they had already started preparing early to seize the opportunity.
Looking at the somewhat hideous expression of the "Master of the Qian Family," the young man in plain clothes remained silent.
At the same time, he felt even more worried in his heart.
If things were indeed as the other party said, it wouldn't be long before this world really fell into chaos.
"Master Wei, I have no other questions. You can deal with this person as you see fit."
Seeing Wei Xinghe stand in front of him again, with a cold expression on his face,
the "Master of the Qian Family" knew that this time, he really couldn't escape.
He was not afraid. As a top assassin of the Seven Killers Tower, he had stained his hands with countless lives, long prepared for the possibility of mission failure and death.
However, there was one thing he had to clarify, or he wouldn't die in peace.
So he looked at Wei Xinghe and said, "I know I will die. I do not know who the client is, but if you let this young master answer a few questions, I can tell you the content of this assassination mission, so you can guess who the enemy is."
Wei Xinghe couldn't help but look at Lu Qing.
Lu Qing's expression remained unchanged, and he said indifferently, "Ask."
He did not say whether he would answer.
"May I ask where you come from? Are you a disciple of the Four Great Secret Lands?"
In the eyes of the "Master of the Qian Family," a monstrous genius like Lu Qing could only be cultivated by those legendary mysterious places.
Unfortunately, those mysterious places were elusive.
Even with the intelligence network of the Seven Killers Tower, they had not been able to find them after thousands of years of investigation.
If it weren't for the fact that the descendants of these mysterious places would appear to correct the course of the world during times of great changes, they would have thought these places didn't exist.
Unexpectedly, Lu Qing shook his head directly, "I am not a disciple of any secret land. My master is just a wandering physician, not a descendant of any secret land."
"Not a disciple of the secret land?!"
The "Master of the Qian Family" showed a look of disbelief, but then he seemed to think of something, suddenly laughing crazily.
"Hahaha, I understand now. In our Seven Killers Tower's records, there is an ancient prophecy that when the millennia-long turmoil arrives, the world's situation will undergo immense changes.
At that time, dragons and snakes will rise, heroes will emerge, and monstrous talents will appear, all vying for opportunities, competing for luck, to become the chosen ones blessed with endless fortune.
You, without any sect or school, can achieve the Internal Organs Realm at such a young age, and your martial arts skills are at the master level, be it fists, feet, or swords.
A character like you must be one of those legendary, fortune-blessed monstrous talents.
I never thought I, 'Heavenly Solitude' would be defeated by a 'Child of Fortune.'
It's worth it, it's worth it!"
The "Master of the Qian Family" laughed maniacally, saying words that moved everyone.
After laughing for a while, he calmed down.
"Master Wei, don't you want to know the content of this assassination mission?"
"Speak!" Wei Xinghe said in a deep voice.
"This time, the mission was simple. The client had only one requirement, which was to kill your most beloved youngest son in front of you, so you could experience the heart-wrenching pain of losing a loved one, to feel the agony of a loved one's death and the joy of an enemy's success.
As for the reward, it was three pills that could give Internal Organs Realm martial artists a certain probability of comprehending perfection, stepping into the Internal Organs Realm's perfection, and achieving mastery."
Hearing this, Wei Xinghe still frowned, unable to determine who the client was.
But the "Master of the Qian Family" no longer cared about these things.
He turned his gaze to Lu Qing, with a strange light in his eyes, "Young master, although you are blessed with fortune and unparalleled talent, the era of great strife is about to come. By then, there will be many monstrous talents no less than you, competing for luck.
I advise you, do not be bound by the so-called righteousness of these hypocrites, being falsely compassionate and cautious.
If you do, you will only become someone else's pawn, forever unable to break free from the chessboard.
In this world, if one does not act for oneself, they will be doomed. In the era of great strife, everything must be contested.
Only those who are truly unscrupulous and seize everything have the right to laugh last and stand at the pinnacle of the world.
Since you defeated me, I sincerely hope you will be the one to seize the supreme fortune and reach the peak of martial arts!"
After saying this, the "Master of the Qian Family" suddenly turned red, his aura skyrocketing.
Then, his complexion paled, and his life force dissipated, his eyes losing their luster.
He had severed his own heart meridian and died.
