Chapter 1101: Chapter 1101: Early Battle with the Heavenly King

“One hit kill?”

“No chance to even make a move? Is this newcomer really that strong?”

“Merely at the mid-Tianxuan stage, can his speed really be that terrifying?”

Feng Wuchen’s one-hit kill of Zhao Yanzhong shocked many Tianying Pavilion assassins.

A rookie, who had just joined Tianying Pavilion for a few days, had managed to perform a perfect assassination without even qualifying to take on missions.

Zhao Yanzhong’s strength was certainly not weak, and the fact that Feng Wuchen could instantaneously kill him was enough to astonish the other assassins of Tianying Pavilion.

“Well done, Wuchen, here is your bounty.” In the great hall, the Heavenly Monarch handed over the deserved bounty to Feng Wuchen.

“Double?” Feng Wuchen was slightly surprised.

“You haven’t even met the qualifications to take on missions, yet you managed to execute such a flawless killing. This is the extra bounty I’m giving you,” said the Heavenly Monarch, speaking indifferently.

“So that’s how it is.” Feng Wuchen chuckled lightly without any reservation.

“If there’s any mission suited for me, just let me know. I really need Heavenly Crystal Stones; killing an early-stage Heavenly King should pose no problem,” Wuchen said as he walked out of the great hall.

Feng Wuchen was still very confident in his own strength.

The unrestricted environment of Tianying Pavilion made Feng Wuchen feel very comfortable.

Watching Feng Wuchen’s departing back, the Heavenly Monarch’s lips curved into a faint smile.

“Killing an early-stage Heavenly King? A mid-Tianxuan stage confronting an early-stage Heavenly King, a battle crossing realms, and still so confident; how deep you’ve kept yourself hidden,” the Heavenly Monarch thought to himself.

This assassination task initially offered a reward of a thousand Heavenly Crystal Stones to Feng Wuchen, but with the Heavenly Monarch’s double, it became two thousand.

After leaving the great hall, Feng Wuchen immediately left the Sun Moon Lake.

“Recommended by the Dragon God Clan, could he possibly be from the Dragon God Clan? But why can’t I sense any aura related to the Dragon God Clan on him?” As Feng Wuchen left the Sun Moon Lake, the figure of Chasing Moon mysteriously appeared.

Chasing Moon seemed to have developed an interest in Feng Wuchen, curious about his origins.

Feng Wuchen hid too well, and Chasing Moon couldn’t see through him at all.

In the following month, Feng Wuchen took on missions while also cultivating.

It must be said that the Heavenly Spirit Stones were indeed treasures for cultivation; over a month, Feng Wuchen’s cultivation had made substantial progress. Once again feeling the surge of excitement that comes with increasing strength, a sensation long missed, returned to him.

However, with Feng Wuchen’s current situation, it was uncertain how much time it would take to break through the late Tianxuan stage.

“Although Heavenly Crystal Stones can improve my cultivation level, the pace is too slow. I must find a faster way. It seems that only through Elixirs can my cultivation be truly enhanced,” Feng Wuchen murmured to himself.

Unfortunately, Feng Wuchen was not familiar with the Elixirs in the Heavenly Realm, nor had he had the chance to understand them yet.

Feng Wuchen possessed the most orthodox bloodline of the Dragon God Clan, with extremely high talent and an exceedingly astonishing speed of cultivation, but he was not satisfied.

Narrowing his eyes slightly, Feng Wuchen said, “It’s time to visit the Spiritual Realm Commerce Association and learn about the Heavenly Realm’s medicinal materials.”

“Swoosh!”

At that moment, a figure suddenly appeared—it was Chasing Moon.

“A mission?” Feng Wuchen asked.

“Liu Xuan, an early-stage Heavenly King, senior disciple of Bright Moon Palace,” Chasing Moon said.

“A disciple of Bright Moon Palace?” Feng Wuchen frowned slightly.

“This mission is very difficult for you; the power disparity is too great, you’re no match for him. The Heavenly Monarch is asking if you will take it or not,” Chasing Moon said to Feng Wuchen, seemingly not wishing for him to accept this mission.

Without the slightest hesitation, Feng Wuchen said with a light smile, “I’ll take triple the bounty.”

“Are you joking with your own life?” Chasing Moon frowned slightly, her voice chilling.

“After completing this task, I should be able to become a Silver-ranked Assassin and enjoy the cultivation resources of Tianying Pavilion.” Feng Wuchen turned and left without looking back.

“Swoosh!”

Feng Wuchen’s figure transformed into a streak of golden light, shooting out rapidly, hurrying towards Bright Moon Palace.

“If you fail, I will kill you with my own hands!” Chasing Moon muttered, vanishing with a flicker of his figure.

…

Bright Moon Palace is but a second or third-tier power in the Heavenly Realm, with very average strength.

Of course, that’s relative to the entire Heavenly Realm; to Feng Wuchen, Bright Moon Palace is an imposing force.

“Brother Liu, there is someone calling himself Wind Shadow outside looking for you, saying that there’s something very important.” Inside Bright Moon Palace, a disciple reported to Liu Xuan.

“Wind Shadow?” Liu Xuan’s brows furrowed slightly, shaking his head, “I’ve never heard of him and do not know him.”

“He’s waiting outside the mountain gate, insisting that Brother Liu come out to meet him,” the disciple continued.

“I understand.” Liu Xuan said and, out of curiosity, headed towards the mountain gate.

Outside the mountain gate, there was no one.

“Where is he?” Liu Xuan frowned deeply, looking left and right, but found no one.

“Swoosh!”

Just as Liu Xuan was about to head back, a strange black shadow flashed by.

“Who’s there?” Liu Xuan barked with a frown, turning his head to look, but the shadow had vanished, and he instantly gave chase.

“Swoosh swoosh swoosh!”

Two black shadows chased each other through the mountains, their speed so fast all one could see were successive flickers of black lines.

“Here it comes.” A dangerous curve appeared on the corner of Feng Wuchen’s mouth.

A few minutes later, the two figures ceased their chase, arriving atop a magnificent mountain peak.

“Are you Wind Shadow? Who are you, and what is your purpose in luring me here?” Liu Xuan asked solemnly, his cold gaze fixed on Feng Wuchen’s back.

“I’m here for your head,” Feng Wuchen replied slowly, turning around.

“A Tianying Pavilion assassin?” Seeing Feng Wuchen face-on, Liu Xuan’s expression shifted slightly.

“Good eye,” Feng Wuchen sneered, with Divine Power surging to the fullest, he shot out like lightning, a flash of cold light, and a dagger appearing out of thin air.

The tyrannical presence of Feng Wuchen had reached the late Tianxuan stage.

“How can your combat power increase so much? But, Tianying Pavilion doesn’t have assassins as weak as you,” Liu Xuan said in surprise, but after seeing Feng Wuchen’s strength, he totally dismissed him.

“Dragon God Shadow!”

Feng Wuchen shouted lowly, deploying his movement technique, with his speed suddenly greatly increased.

“Hmph!” Liu Xuan sneered arrogantly, unafraid.

The speed of Feng Wuchen was terrifying, and in a matter of seconds, he appeared abruptly to the right of Liu Xuan, his dagger stabbing fiercely and ruthlessly.

“Ding!”

Unfortunately, no matter how fast Feng Wuchen was, he was not faster than Liu Xuan, who merely used two fingers to clamp onto the incoming dagger, his powerful strength not affected in the slightest by Feng Wuchen’s force.

“Boy, with this little bit of skill, you want to kill me? Overestimating your abilities, I’ll send you on your way right now,” Liu Xuan said with a cold laugh, his eyes flickering with ferocious killing intent.

The power of the Supreme Physique Third Stage was activated, and Feng Wuchen’s combat strength soared madly, an extremely domineering Qi Force erupting forth.

“This kid’s power is extraordinary and tyrannical; his aura has already reached the peak of the late Tianxuan stage,” Liu Xuan watched Feng Wuchen with extreme shock.
