Chapter 980 -477: Dark Three Blades, Assassination Organization?_2
Inside the tavern, numerous individuals, topless and flushed from excessive drinking, could be seen.
With a sharp steel blade tied at the waist and a piercing gaze, a good many were also scanning the surroundings vigilantly.
Luo Yao, accompanied by Zhen, found a corner spot and sat down.
He then immediately gestured with his hand, calling over a waiter.
“Bring us your best wine and a few of your signature dishes,” he said.
After ordering the food, Luo Yao turned to Zhen sitting beside him.
“Zhen, we’ve encountered some trouble again lately.”
“According to the information we got, it seems a new group has set its sights on us…”
Upon hearing this, Zhen showed no expression of surprise.
Since the Young Master of the Qingshi City Luo Family had left the expansive Luo Family Ancestral Land, every few days, greedy individuals attempting to kidnap Luo Yao to extract valuable resources from the Luo Family would appear.
In total, more than fifty cultivators from various places had died by their hands.
But these people never considered,
Luo Yao, destined to be the next Family Head of the Luo Family of Qingshi City, would surely be accompanied by protectors from his family when he left?
“Young Family Head, how do you plan to deal with this?” Zhen quietly looked at Luo Yao before speaking up.
“Kill.”
After a brief silence, Luo Yao spoke in a low voice.
“Kill them all.”
“This time, I will handle it myself.”
“I will head to Yinshan County to eliminate the family heads of those two families.”
Yinshan County is a nearby county city.
This is also why recently many cultivators seemed to have gathered there.
Even a cultivator who had reached the Late Stage of the Blood Cultivation Realm within the Five Realms of Mortality had appeared.
“Yes.”
Zhen nodded silently.
Although Luo Yao’s cultivation and strength were not yet a match for a cultivator in the Blood Cultivation Late Stage,
Their only purpose for this trip was to kill.
Besides, wasn’t Zhen, one of the Three Great Commanders of the Shadow Guard, by Luo Yao’s side?
So, even if Luo Yao personally went,
It was still absolutely foolproof.
…
A hundred miles outside the town, in a dense forest,
At this moment, a cultivator was hiding in a concealed spot.
With a sharp dagger in hand, he constantly monitored the nearby small town.
After a long while, he finally withdrew his gaze and left the place.
Unnoticed by him, shortly after his departure, several figures instantly appeared where he had just been.
These figures were none other than Luo Yao and Zhen, the Shadow Guard Commander.
“Young Master, that cultivator seems to have left,” Zhen remarked with an icy gaze towards the spot where the cultivator had been, then turned to look at Luo Yao.
Hearing this, Luo Yao showed no surprise.
After all, this was not the first time a cultivator had secretly monitored him, the Young Family Head of the Qingshi City Luo Family.
Since leaving Qingshi City, he had been targeted.
Wherever he went, his pursuers almost immediately knew.
That was exactly why he had come to this nearby small town so effortlessly.
“Let’s go.”
After a deep glance in the direction of the town, Luo Yao turned and left the place.
His figure then completely vanished from the spot.
…
Meanwhile, thousands of miles away from Luo Yao, atop a desolate mountain,
At this moment, a middle-aged man was seated cross-legged at the summit.
The man was dressed in black silk clothing, wearing a tall headdress, and had a jade belt tied around his waist.
He appeared to have the look of a wealthy young master.
But upon closer observation, one would notice a hint of gloom between the brows of this middle-aged man.
“Damn it!”
Suddenly, the middle-aged man’s eyes snapped open.
With a low shout, his figure instantly vanished from the spot.
Following that, the man, akin to a wealthy young master, reappeared.
He had already arrived outside a particular house.
This middle-aged man was known as Yang Wu.
He was part of a dark assassination force known as the Dark Three Blades, located beyond the territory of the Da Feng Dynasty’s Imperial Feng Family.
The main reason for his presence here was that he had received a mission to assassinate Luo Yao, the next Family Head heir of the Luo Family.
Yang Wu had thought that such a task should not be difficult to complete.
However, what he hadn’t anticipated was…
Beside the Young Master Luo of the Luo Family in Qingshi City, there seemed to be a cultivator whose cultivation level had apparently reached the fourth major realm within the Five Realms of Mortality, the Blood Cultivation Realm.
Of course, this ‘Blood Cultivation’ was merely Yang Wu’s personal judgment.
As for the true level of cultivation of the mysterious black-clad elder beside Luo Yao,
Yang Wu wasn’t quick to conclude.
Nevertheless, even though he was aware of this situation, Yang Wu didn’t immediately give up.
After all, this was a great opportunity for him.
If he could assassinate the Young Master Luo of the Luo Family, he could obtain a hefty bounty.
And also, he could acquire some incredibly precious cultivation resources,
such as elixirs and spiritual medicines, among other things.
With such benefits at stake, how could he possibly give up easily?
However, what Yang Wu hadn’t expected was that upon finally reaching the outskirts of this small town, when he tried to trace Young Master Luo Yao’s whereabouts, he discovered that Luo Yao had already left the town.
Moreover, it seemed that the mysterious black-clad elder wasn’t even accompanying Young Master Luo.
This revelation made Yang Wu hesitate.
This could be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
If this deal went through, it would truly be a lucrative venture.
But here Yang Wu was, outside this town, apparently without any assistance.
If it were just him alone, assassinating Young Master Luo of the Qingshi City Luo Family might not be an easy task.
After all, this was a person chosen to be the next Family Head.
Even if there were no other cultivators to protect him, his own strength would certainly be formidable.
“For wealth and honor one must take risks.”
After hesitating for a moment, Yang Wu gritted his teeth and took off, flying toward the distance.
Outskirts of the town.
Approximately a hundred miles away.
At this moment, Luo Yao, the Young Master of the Luo Family, was silently walking on what appeared to be a neglected road.
By his side, the usually ever-present Shadow Guard Commander Zhen was nowhere to be seen this time.
Aside from two or three elite black-clothed Shadow Guards who silently followed him,
the rest of the Shadow Guards seemed to have departed.
Of course, if someone were to attack Luo Yao based on this situation, they would only taste their own bitter fruit.
What are Shadow Guards best at?
Combat? Assassination?
No, actually, the most proficient skill of the Shadow Guards cultivated by the Luo Family was concealing their trace.
Despite it seeming like there were only two or three elite Shadow Guards beside Luo Yao, with no sign of Commander Zhen,
if someone did indeed attack Luo Yao,
in just a blink of an eye, those hidden nearby Shadow Guards would instantly appear beside Luo Yao,
eliminating all enemies attempting to approach Luo Yao, the Young Master of the Luo Family.
