Chapter 1100: Chapter 1100: First Mission
âThe Heavenly Realm is governed by the Heavenly Sovereign, so why is the Tianying Pavilion an exception? Can you tell me?â
At the training ground of Tianying Pavilion, Feng Wuchen curiously asked.
Chasing Moon did not answer, his aura was ice-cold, repelling others from a thousand miles away.
âI am ordered to teach you, and I only have three days.â Chasing Moonâs words were neither warm nor fiery, very calm.
âHow many people are in the Tianying Pavilion?â Feng Wuchen asked again.
âKnowing too much is not good for you.â Chasing Moonâs tone remained unheated.
Upon hearing this, Feng Wuchen felt a surge of frustration, having encountered such an indifferent assassin.
âI really donât like you; not every assassin has to be as cold as you.â Feng Wuchen shook his head.
âFrankly speaking, I donât like you either. I am just ordered to teach you. The first rule of Tianying Pavilionâs assassins is to obey orders.â Chasing Moon bluntly said, casually tossing a dagger to Feng Wuchen.
âDonât you take on missions?â Feng Wuchen asked, eyeing the dagger in his hand.
This dagger was exclusive to the Tianying Pavilion, a weapon only possessed by the assassins of Tianying Pavilion, with âSky Shadowâ engraved on it, albeit only at the level of a Spiritual Artifact.
âThere are no suitable missions for me at the moment.â Chasing Moon said, his tone unchanged.
Chasing Moon said: âAn assassin, in the shortest time, should kill the enemy with the deadliest attack, must be ruthless, this is the very basic.â
Three days passed in the blink of an eye.
On the first day, Chasing Moon taught Feng Wuchen about the knowledge of assassins and the rules of Tianying Pavilion.
On the second day, he guided Feng Wuchen in practicing assassination skills in the training ground.
On the third day, Chasing Moon gave Feng Wuchen a scroll of Immortal Technique, allowing Feng Wuchen to cultivate on his own.
The three days of teaching ended just like that.
Just as Chasing Moon said, he was only ordered to teach, not to train.
âChasing Moon, is there a suitable mission for me?â Feng Wuchen asked.
Chasing Moon glanced at Feng Wuchen and said, âOnly those in the King Realm can take on missions. With your strength, you are not fit for any mission.â
With these words, Chasing Moonâs figure turned into a stream of light and disappeared.
âThis guy.â Feng Wuchen was extremely frustrated with Chasing Moon.
Chasing Moon did not understand Feng Wuchen well, only knowing that Feng Wuchen was in the mid-stage of the Heavenly Profound Realm; he merely made a judgment based on Feng Wuchenâs cultivation alone.
Although Feng Wuchen was only at the mid-stage of the Heavenly Profound Realm, his actual strength was not inferior to those in the later stages of the Heavenly Profound Realm, perhaps even stronger.
Feng Wuchen arrived at the hall where tasks are given.
The Tianying Pavilion accepts all bounty missions, including those to assassinate the Heavenly Emperor!
The assassins taking missions do not need to know other information, just to kill, as simple as that.
Anyone who wants revenge can challenge the Tianying Pavilion, but before doing so, they must weigh their own strength!
âAssassin Wind Shadow, here to receive a mission.â Feng Wuchen saluted.
âStep down, your cultivation is not sufficient for the King Realm, you cannot take on missions. Come back when you have broken through to the King Realm,â a voice full of authority echoed from the hall.
Feng Wuchen said, âIsnât there a mission to kill someone in the later stage of the Heavenly Profound Realm? I should be up to the task.â
Feng Wuchen was quite confident in his own strength.
âWind Shadow, do you know what failure means?â the authoritative voice asked.
âI know.â Feng Wuchen nodded.
If an assassination fails, the Tianying Pavilion will immediately dispatch a more powerful assassin to take over the mission and will eliminate the failed assassin.
This is also one of the rules of Tianying Pavilion.
âTianying Pavilion does not allow any failures! If you fail, even if you are recommended by the Dragon God Clan, you only have one way outâdeath. Think carefully.â The voice of the Heavenly Monarch sounded, immediately appearing beside Feng Wuchen.
âI have thought it through.â Feng Wuchen answered without hesitation.
âGo then.â The Heavenly Monarch said indifferently.
The corners of Feng Wuchenâs mouth lifted slightly as he confidently left.
Another figure swiftly appeared, saying, âHeavenly Monarch, he has just joined Tianying Pavilion for three days, not even as good as a Silver-ranked assassin, why assign him a mission?â
âThe Pavilion Master recommended him, I want to know what is special about him.â The Heavenly Monarch said indifferently.
âThe Heavenly Monarch has made an exception for Feng Wuchen again.â In the shadows, Chasing Moon frowned slightly.
As soon as Feng Wuchen left the Tianying Pavilion and arrived at the Sun Moon Lake, Chasing Moon immediately intercepted him.
âIf the mission fails, I will kill you!â Chasing Moonâs tone remained neither warm nor fiery.
âThank you for the reminder.â Feng Wuchen didnât care and then flew away.
Gazing at the departing Feng Wuchen, Chasing Moon furrowed his brows, wondering about something in his mind.
Feng Wuchenâs mission was very simple, just to assassinate the bounty target.
âZhao Yanzhong, Fallen Imperial City, late stage of the Heavenly Profound Realm.â The bounty mission information was very brief.
Days later, outside the Fallen Imperial City, Feng Wuchen, dressed as an assassin, intercepted a middle-aged man.
âAn assassin from Tianying Pavilion?â The middle-aged man stared coldly at Feng Wuchen, guessing his identity from his attire.
Feng Wuchen activated the power of time, bursting out like lightning while drawing out the dagger from Tianying Pavilion, launching a fierce and ferocious attack.
âMid stage of Heavenly Profound Realm?â The middle-aged man said disdainfully, âNot even a Silver-ranked assassin, and you dare to kill me? You are simply seeking your own death.â
As soon as the man finished speaking, he suddenly realized that his body couldnât move, or more precisely, his movements were extremely slow.
âWhoosh!â
âSss!â
In that instant, a flash of golden light passed by, followed by a spray of fresh blood. The manâs expression was filled with disbelief and despair.
âWhatâŠwhat happened? Just nowâŠâ The man fearfully covered his neck, eventually collapsing weakly to the ground.
The power of time activated and dissipated in less than a second, achieving the assassination in one fluid motion, cleanly and neatly.
A one-hit kill!
âAssassination has never been my method; what I want is a direct kill.â Feng Wuchenâs lips curled up in a slight wicked smile.
Killing someone in the late stage of Heavenly Profound Realm was as easy as flipping his hand for Feng Wuchen.
âHow is this possible! He actually managed to achieve a one-hit kill!â In the shadows, Chasing Moon widened his eyes in shock, extremely startled.
While Chasing Moon was still worried that Feng Wuchen would not be able to overcome his opponent, he hadnât expected that the opponent wouldnât even have a chance to make a move.
With furrowed brows, Chasing Moon thought to himself: âThat power just now was very unusual, seemingly carrying some kind of restraint, rendering the enemy unable to move for a moment, allowing him to finish with a perfect one-hit kill at an astonishing speed. This young man is not simple.â
âReporting to the Heavenly Monarch!â Chasing Moon immediately transmitted his voice.
âHow is it?â The voice of the Heavenly Monarch came.
âA one-hit kill, the enemy had no power to fight back.â Chasing Moon reported truthfully.
âOh? A one-hit kill?â The Heavenly Monarch asked in surprise, âIs he really that strong?â
âFeng Wuchenâs speed is quite astonishing, his strength is very unusual, and he has not even utilized his real power.â Chasing Moon transmitted his voice.
âIt seems I was overthinking. This young man indeed has something special. Mission completed, order him to return immediately.â The Heavenly Monarch transmitted his voice.
