The Red Heaven Seven Gods indeed operated in the Southern Jambu Continent. Uchiha Shin had heard people mention them before, but he had never paid them much attention.
So he had not recognized them at first, only gradually recalling them later.
Though these seven called themselves the Seven Gods, they were not actually gods—merely cultivators of considerable strength who often committed all manner of wicked deeds.
Before Yang Jian grew powerful, the Red Heaven Seven Gods had been a formidable force in the Southern Jambu Continent. But after Yang Jian emerged, the seven of them no longer dared act without restraint. They retreated into the underworld and no longer involved themselves in the affairs of the righteous path.
Later, once Uchiha Shin appeared in Cloud Dream Marsh, these people became even less daring.
"I never expected someone to hire the seven of you to assassinate me. How interesting," Uchiha Shin said with a smile. He truly was somewhat surprised.
Even if those great powers wanted to find hidden experts to deal with Uchiha Shin, there was no reason for them to seek out the Red Heaven Seven Gods. Their reputation was far from good.
"Since the Mystic Spirit King knows why we have come, then please kill yourself, Mystic Spirit King, so as not to dirty our hands," the man in red said flatly.
Oh?
These people were certainly arrogant!
Uchiha Shin idly turned the wine cup in his hand. "Since you came to assassinate me, naturally I have to make things a little harder for you. Otherwise, when you return to claim your reward, your employer may hesitate. It would be best if you suffered some injuries—or even lost one man. That way, you can demand much more when you go back for payment."
