Su Xiuhang, as an assassin, has learned a variety of skills.
He excels in stealth, tracking, and even possesses knowledge of Daoist arts and assassination techniques. His skills are diverse and impressive.
However, after Jiang Wang finished reading all of these techniques, none of them caught his eye.
Although Su Xiuhang has learned a wide range of skills, none of them are particularly outstanding. Jiang Wang noticed that among the stack of techniques, even the Daoist art Wind Blade was meticulously recorded!
On the other hand, although Jiang Wang currently has no sect or affiliation, he has learned the Flame Flower from Zuo Guanglie, the Binding Tiger, Flower Sea, and Thorn Crown collected by the Zhongxuan family, and even the low-grade Daoist arts from the Jianguo royal family.
His vision has already been elevated.
That being said, it is quite impressive that Su Xiuhang was able to cultivate his current strength with such a variety of skills. He does seem to have some talent as an assassin.
The skill that interests Jiang Wang the most from Su Xiuhang is the art of making talismans. However, it is likely related to blood curses from his sect and cannot be revealed.
"Do you think these mediocre skills can demonstrate your sincerity?" Jiang Wang asked as he casually collected these techniques. Even though mosquito legs are small, they are still meat. He plans to hand them over to the Yan Dao Platform later.
"Sir, I have searched high and low, but I really don't have anything else to offer. If there's anything else you want, just let me know," Su Xiuhang said with his eyes closed, his heart determined.Jiang Wang:...
He couldn't be bothered to waste any more words and directly approached Su Xiuhang, pinching his mouth open and forcefully feeding him a wooden-element Dao Yuan Pill.
Su Xiuhang only felt something instantly dispersing within his body, causing a slight imbalance in his five elements. However, upon careful perception, nothing seemed out of the ordinary.
"What did you make me swallow?" he asked in panic.
"The Heaven's Wrath Earth's Destruction Pill," Jiang Wang casually made up a name. "This is a secret technique passed down by the Great Qi royal family. It's not easy to use, so you're lucky."
"Heaven's... Wrath... Earth's... Destruction..." Su Xiuhang was thunderstruck.
Just the name alone sounds extremely poisonous.
"Don't be nervous, it won't easily take effect. When it does, it will just cause your soul to scatter suddenly, without any pain. Of course, as long as you help me with something, the situation of your soul scattering will definitely not occur."
"What... do you want me to do?" Su Xiuhang asked reluctantly.
Jiang Wang smiled. "I haven't thought about it yet. Let's set a time limit of one month, shall we? After the task is completed, I will naturally give you the antidote."
"Of course, during this period, you can secretly go find someone else. You can go to places like the Suspended Monastery or the Eastern King Valley. See if anyone can find its trace and eliminate it. Although I don't think the Great Qi royal family's top-secret poison can be deciphered, you can give it a try, just to be sure."
The Suspended Monastery is a sacred place in Buddhism and is also very famous in the field of medicine.
While speaking, Su Xiuhang had already checked himself at least ten times, but the poisonous pill seemed to have disappeared without a trace.
Indeed, the secret poison of the Great Qi royal family is terrifying. Not only can it not be detoxified, but it can't even be found!
"I won't look anymore, I won't look anymore. I'll do as you say," Su Xiuhang said meekly.
"Don't look so gloomy," Jiang Wang pretended to be displeased. "Since you came to take my life, it's only fair that you help me once, right?"
"Fair, very fair," Su Xiuhang forced a smile, but he looked even more pitiful than if he were crying.
Jiang Wang was in a good mood after easily recruiting a cultivator at the Tongtian Realm.
"You go find Hu Guanshi and have him arrange a place for you to stay. Just tell him I said so. As for what to do next, wait for my orders." Jiang Wang threw his dagger back to Su Xiuhang. "Keep the weapon."
Su Xiuhang took the dagger and opened his mouth, "My talismans..."
Seeing Jiang Wang squinting his eyes, he quickly changed his tone, "My obedience will definitely satisfy you!"
...
Jiang Wang, oh Jiang Wang, you've never been one to extort others.
How could you learn from that fat guy, Zhong Xuan Sheng?
You mustn't do this in the future.
Jiang Wang sighed inwardly.
But the feeling of extortion... is really enjoyable.
Despite the self-mockery, Jiang Wang doesn't feel any guilt towards Su Xiuhang.
A killer must be prepared to be killed.
The main reason he didn't kill Su Xiuhang was that he didn't see him as a significant threat. The secondary reason was that he needed manpower. Any interesting personality traits were just minor details.
After entering the Illusory Void Realm and handing over all of Su Xiuhang's miscellaneous techniques to the Yan Dao Platform, Jiang Wang's mood was quite good.
"It seems that these ordinary things won't bring much benefit."
With a total of 428 points of Dao, he is still far from the 1,000 points required to unlock the third level of the Yan Dao Platform.
Jiang Wang withdrew his consciousness and began to meditate, spending the night in silence.
Early in the morning, Zhang Hai had already returned. With the motivation of Dao Yuan Stones, he had become much more proactive.
He brought back some bad news.
"That Li Ji Meat Pie Shop you mentioned has already closed yesterday. I broke into the shop, but there was no one inside. I asked the neighbors, but no one knows where Old Li went."
"Old Li has disappeared?"
At first glance, this clue seems to have been cut off.
The other clue naturally leads to the assassin organization, Tianxia Tower.Jiang Wang had already learned from Su Xiu Xing, a killer with no principles, that the headquarters of the Underworld Tower was located in Cangfeng City, another corner of Yang Country.
The scale of this assassin organization was indeed small, and its leader was only a cultivator of the Soaring Dragon Realm. Jiang Wang was not necessarily afraid.
However, it would probably take half a month to go back and forth from Jiacheng.
But...
Not to mention whether there was more detailed information about the employer at the Underworld Tower. Just from the perspective of Jiacheng.
The person who hired a killer to kill him, regardless of the reason, must be related to the Tianqing stone mine he was dealing with.
At this moment, it would be foolish for him to leave the Hu's mine.
No matter who the hidden opponent was, Jiang Wang had no intention of playing detective games with them. As the local snakes, it was too easy for them to erase any traces.
If he went to find Old Li with a murderous aura, he would only be led by the nose and never be able to turn back.
Therefore, Jiang Wang only focused on one point, if someone wanted to force him to give up the Hu's mine, then he would stick to it.
No matter how dazzling you are, I will break through with a single punch.
Just like two armies confronting each other, the most important thing is not to dismantle each other's moves, but to hold on to the fundamental position.
Jiang Wang was talking to Zhang Hai.
Shuanzi came to report: "Master Jiang, Young Master Xi has brought several people tied up, saying he wants to apologize to you."
"Which Young Master Xi?"
"Young Master Xi Zichu of Jiacheng."
"Who is tied up?"
Shuanzi leaned in and lowered his voice: "The steward said, they are all the decision-makers of those small families in Jiacheng."
Hu Shaomeng of the Diao Hai Tower, the Zhong Xuan clan member who transported the Dao Yuan stones, the assassin Su Xiu Xing, the young master of Jiacheng Xi Zichu... In a small mine, these people came and went like a revolving lantern.
Bringing people tied up, what kind of medicine is being sold in this gourd?
Jiang Wang pondered for a moment, then smiled: "The mine has been really lively these days, all kinds of strange creatures have come."
He took the lead and walked out: "Follow me to take a look."
