Chapter 497: God of Wealth Delivered to the Door

After walking out of the teahouse, Lou Mu Yan restrained the smile on her face and an austere aura rose on her.

Mo Yan stood on her shoulder and noticed the change in her temperament, “What’s wrong?”

“I received news from Headmaster that the Hidden City dispatched a large number of assassins to kill me here in Tian’yuan City and told me to return quickly.” Lou Mu Yan disappeared into a deep alley with her Flash Steps, leaving only afterimages.

Mo Yan asked lazily: “Are you going to go back now?”

“Of course not. The ‘children of wealth1’ are here, how could I refuse them.” Lou Mu Yan narrowed her eyes and replied.

Mo Yan sneered. He just knew that this woman deliberately swept up so many goods in Tian’yuan City because she wanted to lure out the assassins in the Hidden City.

An hour later, in a dark alley, Lou Mu Yan leaned against the wall with her arms folded.

Suddenly, six figures appeared in the dark alley and a thick killing aura filled the air.

“Aren’t you all too slow.” Lou Mu Yan opened her sleepy eyes.

Her voice was like the cold wind blowing on a winter night, making the six of them shudder.

The six people immediately surrounded her and the leading man’s voice was dull and broken, “Since you want to die so early, then we’ll satisfy you.”

Lou Mu Yan raised her head and glanced at the six people. They were all Advanced-Phase Sword Venerables. A blue longsword appeared in her hands, “Is that so? How about I send you all on your way first.”

The six took out their longswords and fiercely slashed towards Lou Mu Yan.

A smile of ridicule crossed Lou Mu Yan’s lips, and she disappeared in a flash.

As soon as she reappeared, a sword pierced through one of the assassins who had attacked her head-first.

The other five were startled when they saw this and they all stopped holding back, going straight to their ultimate moves.

Lou Mu Yan flipped backwards, slashed down with her sword, and a water column spurted out, annihilating all the sword auras of the several people.

The people took a few steps back, and their faces were filled with shock. Obviously, they didn’t expect Lou Mu Yan’s combat power to be so strong.

Just as they were about to activate a joint killing array, who expected that they would be entangled by the feet by golden vines that drilled out from the ground, and their skins felt as if needles had lightly pricked it.

The five people suddenly felt that the elemental energy in their bodies was completely sealed and their entire body could no longer move at all.

Soon, the five people’s eyes were filled with panic and horror as blood continued to drain from them, and as they gradually lost their vitality.

Then a golden vine took the six interspatial rings and placed them in Lou Mu Yan’s hands.

She checked it with her mental energy, then smiled, “Assassins sure are rich.”

She never killed innocent people, but she would never be soft-hearted to those who took the initiative to commit crimes against her, especially those who wanted her life. Wouldn’t it be such a loss not to give Xue Xue some nourishment.

Hearing the swish of wind, she didn’t leave immediately, folded her arms, and continued to rest her eyes against the wall.

When the second wave of assassins arrived, her moves were decisive, and she cut off the opponents’ way of retreat. Miao Miao also came out to move a little, then finally tossed them all to Xue Xue to replenish his nourishment.

While at Sword Sovereign cultivation base, she could already kill Sword Venerables. Now that she had been promoted to Sword Venerable, it could be said that she was an invincible existence among Sword Venerables. These Earth Rank assassins were like chopping melons and vegetables to her, and she was too lazy to do it personally.

There wasn’t a trace of the scent of blood in the alley, but every now and then, there would be wisps of cyan smoke signals and waves of Hidden City killers arriving one after another.

When it was almost dawn, she curbed all her traces of indifference and carefreeness, raised an eyebrow, and murmured: “The Heaven Rank assassins are finally going to come?”

As her murmur fell, three men of Sword Saint cultivation base appeared in the air, looking at Lou Mu Yan, who was standing leisurely, with eyes like venomous snakes.

“You’re Heaven Rank killers?” Lou Mu Yan glanced at the three of them and straightened up with interest, “I’ll greet you three.”

When the three of them saw that the ground was filled with dried corpses drained of their blood essence, they couldn’t help but feel a chill.

But without much hesitation, the three greeted Lou Mu Yan’s longsword.

Them killers didn’t care about fighting in a group. As long as they could complete the mission, they could do anything, not to mention the combat power displayed by Lou Mu Yan made them extremely cautious.

With swords lights and sword shadows going back and forth in the dark alley, Lou Mu Yan was at ease even if she was besieged by the three people.

Feeling that she had played enough, she waved her palm, and three groups of orange flames glowing a slight cyan light rushed out and the temperature in the dark alley suddenly rose.

“Careful, that’s a mutant flame.” A killer exclaimed.

A faint wisp of cyan smoke entered into his mouth, and he couldn’t make a second sound. He held his throat tightly as if he were suffocating, then he was tightly tangled by the golden vines emerging from the ground. In only a moment, he became a dried corpse.

A ball of spirit flames landed on the man and the killer at Initial-Phase Sword Saint turned into a pile of white ashes.

Seeing this, the two others revealed panic in their eyes, and they stepped back again and again, wanting to escape the spirit flame and from the dark alley.

It was just a pity for them that their speed was still a step slower and the remaining two groups of spirit flames quickly enveloped the two of them.

The two had yet to even let out a shrill scream before being dragged into the ground by the golden climbing vine to enjoy nourishment.

A beam of sunlight penetrated the darkness and fell into the dark alley, and the night gradually dissipated, replaced by day.

Lou Mu Yan put away the longsword in her hand, grabbed all the interspatial rings dragged over by Xue Xue, then with a tap of her toes, she leapt out of the dark alley and quickly disappeared.

Half an incense stick of time later, a man in cyan clothes appeared in the dark alley with several Sword Saints.

When seeing the scene on the ground, even these killers who had been licking the blood on the tip of their swords all year round couldn’t help but feel a chill on their backs.

The cyan-clothed man was extremely gloomy, “Officially activate Heaven Rank Assassination Order and dispatch the Twelve Constellations.”

“As ordered.” An elderly man behind him replied respectfully.

After Lou Mu Yan returned to the courtyard, she met Headmaster Feng and Huo Ling Long.

“Lou girl, are you alright?” Headmaster Feng’s expression was filled with worry. They were anxious all night long, but they had received her voice transmission to not act rashly.

Lou Mu Yan smiled and said: “Thank you for your concern, Headmaster Feng, I’m fine.”

“Girl, last night’s harvest was pretty good right.” Huo Ling Long looked at Lou Mu Yan with a half-smile, her tone affirmative.

Lou Mu Yan’s attitude towards Huo Ling Long was obviously a lot more affectionate. She hugged Huo Ling Long’s arm and said as she walked: “Headmaster, I found that the killers of the Hidden City are all super rich. Let’s kill a few more and this year’s spiritual stones expenses has a source now.”

Huo Ling Long giggled happily, “Girl, you sure can do business.”

Headmaster Feng heard the conversation between the two and his forehead was covered in cold sweat. So it seemed that the two regarded the killers of the Hidden City as a small treasury—the God of Wealth!

He couldn’t help but wonder—if the leader of the killer organisation knew of Lou Mu Yan’s thoughts, would they vomit blood.

At the same time, Tian’yuan City, City Lord’s Mansion.

The sound of a cadenced xiao reverberated in the purple bamboo forest, followed by footsteps. The man in black with dark patterns on his clothes moved the xiao away from his lips, turned and asked lightly: “How is it?”

“Reporting to Young Lord, the Hidden City’s killers in Tian’yuan City have all been wiped out.” A man wearing a mask with bamboo patterns replied respectfully: “But we only killed some escaped killers. The ones that destroyed their dens are people from the Ming Chamber of Commerce Alliance.”

“Understood. You can leave.”

The man rubbed his jade xiao, his brows furrowed slightly, then sighed: Monarch Ming, you can’t help but act either now?

1basically LMY is saying the assassins bring wealth to her. The ‘child of wealth’ (送财童子sòng cái tóngzǐ) is derived from the Chinese myths of 金童玉女 (jīn tóng yùnǚ), the ‘golden youth and jade maiden’ or ‘golden boy and jade girl’ who are often depicted beside the Goddess of Mercy, 观音(Guānyīn) in Chinese mythology. ‘Jīn tóng’ is also known as 善财童子 (shàn cái tóngzǐ; Child of Wealth) and ‘yùnǚ’ is also known as 龙女 (lóng nǚ; Dragon Girl)
