Chapter 2751: Black Market Assassins

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“Yes.” The Golden Light King, the Golden Tiger, nodded immediately. He glared at Huan’er who was standing nearby. “It’s her!”

When Long Xiang Yun heard this, he turned to look in the direction that the Golden Tiger was looking at. A furious expression could be seen on his face. However, his expression changed drastically when he saw Huan’er. “Her?!”

It was not just Long Xiang Yun, even the expression of the old man who came with him changed drastically when he saw Huan’er. Although they had not seen Huan’er’s face before, they had heard people’s description of her outfit. Therefore, they knew who she was as soon as they saw her.

“Your Highness, the Fourth Prince?” The Golden Tiger, naturally, noticed the changes in Long Xiang Yun and the old man’s expressions. An ominous premonition rose in his heart immediately.

In the next moment, Long Xiang Yun’s actions seemed to confirm the ominous feeling in the Golden Tiger’s heart.

“Greetings, Miss Huan’er.” Long Xiang Yun cupped his fists together in greeting. Then, he looked at the Golden Tiger meaningfully before he, the old man, and the Golden Tiger left. He left as quickly as he came.

Before the Golden Tiger left with Long Xiang Yun, he looked at the middle-aged man coldly as he said, “Take my father’s body away… If any of his body parts are missing, I’ll hold you accountable for it!”

The middle-aged servant was left scrambling to clean up the ground covered in ice shards.

A moment later, when the crowd regained their senses, all of them gasped. When they looked at Huan’er again, their gazes were different from before.

“Who’s she?”

“Even the fourth prince is so respectful to her. He even took the initiative to greet her.”

“Exactly. The fourth prince wouldn’t even be so courteous to the thirteenth prince if he was here. Who’s this white-clad woman? Is she really one of the thirteenth prince’s men?”

At this moment, the crowd did not think Huan’er was working for the thirteenth prince. What a joke! How could someone that even the fourth prince had treated with respect work for the thirteenth prince?

Meanwhile, Huan’er did not pay attention to the curious eyes in her surroundings. Her beautiful and limpid eyes were trained on Duan Ling Tian who was protected inside the ice walls. She saw the expression of agony on his face and the violent tremblings of his body as blood trickled out from the corner of his mouth.

‘Why does my heart hurt? Why do I feel this way?’ Huan’er pressed a hand to her chest as she looked at Duan Ling Tian. She felt her heart ache, but she did not understand why she felt so distressed. She had never felt this way before.

Although she was worried about Duan Ling Tian and wished she could suffer in Duan Ling Tian’s stead, she knew she could not disturb him now. Therefore, she only watched him in silence.

On the other hand, Qiu Ling stood like an iron tower next to the ice walls. A cold expression could be seen on his face as he surveyed his surroundings and guarded Duan Ling Tian. It seemed like he was prepared to kill whoever who dared approach them!

At this moment, a middle-aged man suddenly exclaimed, “I remember now!” He looked at Huan’er as he said, “S-she killed the elder from the Zhou clan who guarded the fourth miss of the Zhou clan a year ago!”

The fourth miss of the Zhou clan! The elder of the Zhou clan!

With the middle-aged man’s words as a reminder, many people began to recall what had happened a year ago on the streets of the capital.

A year ago, Zhou Shu Dong, the fourth miss of the Zhou clan, had propositioned a young man and insisted that he become her boy toy. However, she was firmly rejected. In the end, Zhou Shu Dong was injured by that handsome young man, and the elder from the Zhou clan was killed by the white-clad woman next to him.

At that time, most people thought the fourth miss of the Zhou clan would definitely seek revenge from the duo. However, to everyone’s surprise, a few months ago, Zhou Shu Qiu, the third miss of the Zhou clan, had ordered her younger sister to apologize to the handsome young man.

Ever since then, everyone could vaguely guess that the handsome young man and the white-clad woman by his side must have a powerful background. Otherwise, with Zhou Shu Qiu’s strong background, why would she need to be so polite to the duo?

“No wonder. I thought the purple-clad young man looked familiar. Then, he must be the young man whom the fourth miss of the Zhou clan had propositioned back then!” an old man exclaimed.

“No wonder His Fourth Highness is so polite to the white-clad woman… It’s obvious he recognizes the duo. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be so polite and take the initiative to greet her!”

“I heard the pair has a close relationship with the thirteenth prince. Rumor has it that they’re also staying in the thirteenth prince’s residence in the Imperial palace. It seems like the rumors are true.”

“Of course, it’s true. Otherwise, why would the thirteenth prince’s man accompany them?”

Meanwhile.

“He’s from a powerful sect outside the Wasteland? He’s also a Great Overarching Golden Celestial who’s younger than 100 years old? The white-clad woman is an Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial who’s also younger than 100 years old?” The Golden Tiger, the Golden Light King, learned about Duan Ling Tian and Huan’er from Long Xiang Yun. Long Xiang Yun had told him that the pair came from a sect that was even stronger than the Three Major Celestial Sects of the Wasteland! After all, even Zhou Shu Qiu, a disciple with a high status in the Thousand Spiders Celestial Sect, was polite to them.

“Now, you know why I was polite to that woman…” Long Xiang Yun said in a deep voice, “Golden Light King, although that woman killed the Old King, I advise you to forget about avenging your father. It won’t be an easy feat. If you fail, not only would disaster befall you, but it would befall the Golden Light Mansion as well.” His tone turned more and more solemn as he spoke.

“Your Highness, the Fourth Prince, thank you for the reminder.” The Golden Tiger feigned a frightened expression on his face. However, inwardly he had already made a decision. ‘Even if I have to deplete the financial resources of the Golden Light Mansion, I’ll hire a Celestial Duke to kill that woman and that purple-clad young man. It doesn’t matter why my father wanted to kill him. Since it was his wish to kill that young man, I will fulfill his last wish!’

In the Wasteland, one could hire assassins from the black market. The black-market assassins were very mysterious, and their origins were unknown. No one knew who they were, they only knew that the assassins were rather powerful and adept at killing their targets.

Among the black-market assassins, the strongest were Celestial Dukes. Rumor had it that the Celestial Dukes who were black-market assassins were high-ranking officials from the Three Major Celestial Sects of the Wasteland, including the sect leaders, as well. The reason they became assassins was due to the generous rewards that came with the job. Naturally, those from the Three Major Celestial Sects of the Wasteland would not admit to it. After all, black-market assassins were the public’s enemy in the Wasteland.

As long as one was capable of paying the high price, one would be able to hire a black-market assassin. It did not matter if the target’s background was extraordinary. After all, nobody knew who the black-market assassins were.

‘If I spend all my financial resources in the Golden Light Mansion, it’ll be enough to hire a black-market assassin who’s a Celestial Duke. That woman is, at most, an earth-rank Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial,’ the Golden Tiger thought to himself,.

With this plan in mind, the Golden Tiger quickly bade farewell to Long Xiang Yun. He made his way to the place where he was staying and ordered his subordinate to represent him during the selection by the Imperial family of the Soaring Dragon Celestial Kingdom. After that, he left the capital of the Soaring Dragon Celestial Kingdom and headed straight to the center of the Wasteland.

The black markets could be found in three cities in the central area of the Wasteland. Those three cities were respectively controlled by the Three Major Celestial Sects of the Wasteland.

If he wanted to post a bounty on an Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial, the Golden Tiger must, naturally, head to one of the three cities. At that time, the black market would review the target before confirming the price.
