Against the Wind and Rain Order
Three days ago.
At Xiyangyang Hot Pot Restaurant, there were a few people sitting in the corner. They ordered five portions of lamb and dipped them in sesame sauce. They were sweating while eating and couldn't stop using their chopsticks.
He didn't seem like a killer who struck fear into the hearts of many.
That's right.
They were all Human Butcher of the Drizzle Pavilion.
"Why did the Yun Province branch suddenly issue Mountain Rain Approaching Order?"
"I've shelved my sword for a long time; it's time to pull off something big. The situation in Yun Province City is turbulent, making it the perfect opportunity to fish in troubled waters."
A bald, bald-browed, and rather fierce-looking Human Butcher up.
Within the Drizzle Pavilion, there was no hierarchical relationship among the assassins.
However, this Mountain Rain Approaching Order was issued directly from the headquarters.
"I've heard that the Saintess of my tower will also be coming to Yun Province this time."
"A killer, his entire body wrapped in black bandages, spoke in a mysterious tone."
"The Heavenly Demoness is coming too?"
"Even she was alerted; it seems there's a big plan going on upstairs."
The assassins were all shocked.
The Heavenly Demon Saintess of the Drizzle Pavilion is the most promising and talented assassin of the new generation in the Drizzle Pavilion. She has assassinated three prodigies on the Hidden Dragon Ranking.
Legend has it that its appearance is ever-changing, making it impossible to defend against, and its swordsmanship is extremely unpredictable.
"It seems we'll have to cooperate this time."
The bald-browed Human Butcher a somber look in his eyes.
After exchanging glances, the assassins nodded in agreement.
They seemed to hold this bald killer in great awe.
"Boss Baldy, I'd like to propose a toast."
"This hot pot is absolutely delicious. I wonder if there's a branch in Yun Province City?"
"After it's all done, I'll eat at least two extra plates of mutton."
The assassins were chatting.
Suddenly, one of the assassins, who had remained silent throughout, began to gaze intently.
"Look, who's that?"
"Um?"
The assassins were taken aback.
This Human Butcher was extremely famous, known as the Dead Eye Absolute Blade.
When he looks at someone with that kind of gaze, it means he has murderous intent, and that person is doomed!
"Li Mo?"
Every assassin, upon arriving in a new place, immediately goes to the Dark Pavilion to exchange information, and naturally sees various Bounty.
Li Mo's portrait then appeared on the Bounty poster.
And the price isn't low.
The high price and low cultivation level are probably due to his status as True Disciple of the Clear Abyss Sect, which is why no one has been able to acquire it for so long?
"Is he also going to the Martial Dao Summit?"
"We can pull off a heist."
"Let's do it after we leave Purple Sun Prefecture; it's too close to Clear Abyss Sect from here..."
The assassins quickly reached an agreement.
After eating several more plates of mutton, he used his tracking skills to keep up with the Clear Abyss Sect's caravan.
Only today, after confirming that no senior figures or elders from his sect were following him, did he step forward.
Then they stopped Clear Abyss's carriage.
"This mountain is mine, these trees are mine!"
"We're assassins, what the hell are you yelling about?"
"Well, this sounds more imposing..."
Don't say it.
The assassins were strangely dressed and used bizarre weapons.
Standing there, he did indeed exude a certain menacing aura.
"Those who know what's good for them will hand over Li Mo."
"As for the rest, I can spare your lives."
"That's what the squinting swordsman said in a deep voice."
"I?"
Li Mo, who had just stepped off the carriage, was stunned for a moment.
He thought they were bandits robbing travelers.
Unexpectedly, as soon as I stepped off the carriage, I was called by name.
"Heh, you'd better know your place."
The assassin, a former bandit, sneered:
"See these people? They're all Human Butcher from the Drizzle Pavilion, capable of making children afraid to cry at night."
"This guy, known in the underworld as Blood-Hand Vulture, plucks a hair from every person he kills. After he's bald, he plucks his eyebrows. Look at how bald he is, aren't you scared?!"
"And to my left, there's the Dead Eye Absolute Blade. Anyone who gets his eyes half-closed and looks at won't survive the night!"
"Of course, the one behind me is even more formidable. Legend has it that the souls of those he kills are absorbed into his body and branded onto him. Once the bandages are removed, a horde of ghosts will roam the earth!"
"And me, Jade-Faced Flying Dragon..."
The assassin, who called himself Jade-Faced Flying Dragon, rattled off a whole bunch of nonsense.
The members of Clear Abyss Sect looked suspicious.
"What realm are they all in?"
"The highest level of Divine Observation should be the three apertures."
"Then what are they so proud of?"
"Stop the child's night crying? Don't they know who Junior Brother Li's master is?"
Many people even thought that these few clowns were there to attract attention.
But after a brief search, there were no ambushes nearby.
The senior students were somewhat confused for a moment, but did not immediately take action.
"Heh, I know you're bound to be resentful if we ask you to release them without doing anything."
The man who called himself Jade-Faced Flying Dragon held his head high and chest out.
"Alright then, I'll choose one person to fight me one-on-one, and then you'll know how powerful I am."
His eyes searched through the crowd.
As is widely known.
Some people are born to be the center of attention and are more likely to become the focus of a crowd.
For example, Ice Block.
He pointed:
"Yes, that little chick, come out here! Show me what I'm made of!"
Ying Bing: "?"
Li Mo: "..."
Jiang Chulong: "Big Brother Li, why are you covering my eyes?"
Li Mo sighed, "Children shouldn't watch this."
The picture is very cruel.
Ouyang, who was initially quite angry, swallowed hard, thinking that those few bumbling assassins didn't deserve such a terrible crime.
All the disciples of Clear Abyss Sect looked up at the sky and spontaneously helped keep watch.
That's fast.
The several wounded assassins were all subdued.
"Let's tie them up first," said Shen Yunfei, the eldest senior disciple.
"I'm an expert in this area."
Ouyang volunteered to go forward and tie them up.
A moment later.
A group of assassins were bound in Tortoiseshell Binding, weak, pitiful, and helpless.
And shameful.
Li Mo: "Senior brother, you're very skilled."
Ouyang scratched his chin and chuckled, "Hehe, art imitates life... only practice can test the truth."
Li Mo: "..."
"How should we handle this?"
"These assassins claim to have killed countless people, but I don't think they're any good. Let's just kill them and rid the world of this scourge."
"Yes, it's good to kill these evil and heretical people."
"Why are they looking for me?"
Several senior students discussed how to handle the situation.
The assassins looked at the Tortoiseshell Binding on their bodies, and then recalled their experience of being tortured by that female... female demon.
Who the hell is really the evil one?
Li Mo squinted.
The Heavenly Mandate Divine Eye swept over them.
[Name: Zhang Erdan]
[Age: 41]
[Root Bone: toad skin]
[Realm: Divine Observation]
[Comment: During the Avici Trial ten years ago, he survived to the end by using his keen sense of smell to disguise himself as a corpse. His entire body was covered in grime and ulterior motives due to his ugly, pitted skin.]
[Recent Encounter: Ordered by the General Headquarters to proceed to Yun Province City under the Mountain Rain Approaching Order warning]
What kind of weird Root Bone structure is "toad skin"...?
But that's not the point.
Li Mo raised an eyebrow slightly.
Mountain Rain Approaching Order?
In other words, does Drizzle Pavilion have designs on Yun Province?
It's not that I like to meddle in other people's business.
We will also be staying in Yun Province for a while. If any major trouble occurs, we will not be able to remain unscathed.
Thinking of this, Li Mo said:
"How about we temporarily detain these people and interrogate them?"
