Purple Mist Dao Master

Chapter 730 - 445: I Kill Myself: 202 Primordial Pills!_2

Blood Drop Killer.Shadow Assassin.

The Blood Shadow Temple’s reputation is indeed remarkable.

Yan Chuan got straight to the point: "I want to see the task list."

"You must first register as a ’Shadow Assassin’ of the Blood Shadow Temple before you can view the task list." Mo Yuan fetched a ’Iron Token’, inscribed with a black line, and the word ’Shadow’ on the front. This is the ’one-pattern iron token’: "You need to imprint your code on the back with finger power to complete the registration."

Imprint with finger power!

Firstly, to test the visitor’s strength—the Blood Shadow Temple’s tokens are specially made; only those with matching power can leave a mark on them.

Iron Token!

The minimum standard is an Innate Divine General!

While leaving a mark with finger power, the visitor’s true qi aura is also recorded, serving as the best anti-fake identifier.

"This is simple." Yan Chuan activated his famous technique from the ’Mixed Element Thunderclap Hand Cheng Kun’, "Illusion Yin Finger", channeling true qi to leave a mark on the ’Iron Token’ effortlessly——

Assassin: Meteor!

"Master Meteor." Mo Yuan finally knew how to address Yan Chuan and smiled at him after filing on the register: "Please wait a moment, I’ll go fetch a task list."

Shortly after.

Mo Yuan handed the latest task list from the Blood Shadow Temple to Yan Chuan, a thick stack, and as he opened it, two blood-red characters came into view——

"Kill List!"

...

"’Kill List’ records all target individuals in the Blood Shadow Temple who have bounties for assassination yet to be completed, ranked according to bounty amount, jokingly called ’Red List’, ’Black List’, ’Blood Shadow List’, and so on."

Mo Yuan introduced from the side as Yan Chuan perused the "Kill List"——

"First, Beast King, Bounty: 30,000 Primordial Pills."

???

Yan Chuan looked at the "Kill List", then at Mo Yuan.

Mo Yuan understood well.

Almost everyone who picked up the "Kill List" would be puzzled: "The Beast King is clearly the master of our Blood Shadow Temple, how could he be ranked first on the ’Kill List’?"

Mo Yuan smiled at Yan Chuan: "’Blood Shadow Temple’ accepts all tasks, the Four Families and Three Sects are no exception, nor are Beast King City and Blood Shadow Temple. The Four Families and Three Sects can’t do anything to the master, so they use this method to vent their anger."

So that’s how it is.

Yan Chuan understood.

The one who placed the bounty on Beast King’s life was the Four Families and Three Sects, and Beast King, to show that Blood Shadow Temple treats all equally, put himself at the top of the "Kill List".

But everyone actually knows——

"Although 30,000 Primordial Pills is a lot, it’s not much for the War God Realm; it’s not that they are not interested, but it’s not worth having one War God fight another War God."

"Since the master has been at the top of the ’Kill List’, there’s not been a single assassination attempt."

The War God Realm doesn’t dare to fight the War God Realm, and the Innate Realm certainly won’t seek its own doom.

The bounty on Beast King feels more like the impotent rage of the Four Families and Three Sects.

But one must say, to an ordinary Innate Realm——

"30,000 Primordial Pills!"

"Truly tempting!"

30,000 Primordial Pills.

The market price is three billion jin of Essence Stone.

This is an astronomical figure.

Unfortunately, this bounty has nothing to do with Yan Chuan or almost any Innate Divine General, only to be seen but not eaten.

Not to look at the first.

Keep looking down——

[Second, Pang Yunxiang, Bounty: 3,000 Primordial Pills]

[Third, Fei Xue, Bounty: 2,600 Primordial Pills]

[Fourth, Hong Shi, Bounty: 2,335 Primordial Pills]

...

Beneath the Beast King, the "Kill List" from second to thirteenth places, all twelve of them have bounties over 2,000 Primordial Pills, which means their lives are worth tens of millions of jin of Essence Stone, which is also a huge amount for a typical Innate Realm, but looking closely at the detailed introduction of each on this list, it’s still only to be sighed at——

"All are at Innate Peak!"

"The weakest is a Sixth-rank Divine General!"

"Unless a War God acts, they are extremely hard to kill."

But the forces willing to offer such high bounties are nothing but the Four Families and Three Sects, they have their own War Gods but won’t use them to hunt down minor Divine Generals, instead, they’d rather post enormous bounties in the Blood Shadow Tower than bother the Family Head or Sect Leader with Divine General disputes.

"The top hundred on the ’Kill List’ at least have a bounty of 200 Primordial Pills, killing one would suffice for training for quite some time." Mo Yuan looked at Yan Chuan: "Assassination tasks have no requirements, regardless of what level of ’Shadow Assassin’, ’Blood Drop Killer’ can take them, you can even accept and complete a task after already killing the target, this doesn’t matter, as long as you can prove the target is completely dead."

Anyone can accept assassination tasks.

Ordinary tasks are divided by level: Wood Order, Iron Token, Copper Token, Silver Order, Gold Order, Shadow Order, different levels can accept different task levels.

The only way to level up is by taking assassination tasks——

"The highest Shadow Order requires 30,000 points, one Primordial Pill equals one point. If you can kill the first, you’ll be promoted straight to Shadow Order." Mo Yuan joked.

Beast King was easy-going.

He didn’t even care about being at the top of the "Kill List", nor did he mind the Blood Shadow Temple using him to attract customers and assassins.

But——

"Kill the Beast King?" Yan Chuan shook his head, what a hellish joke.

He chuckled as he looked further, suddenly, his smile froze——

[100th, Yan Chuan, Bounty: 202 Primordial Pills]

...

"200 Primordial Pills."

"Two million jin of Essence Stone."

"My life is quite valuable."

Yan Chuan had mixed feelings.

He had just been mocking ’Beast King’ for placing himself on the "Kill List", only to find himself on it the next moment.

The deeper feelings can only be understood by oneself.

It’s not hard to guess that the ones who issued the bounty were Fu Xixiang, Fu Huan, and the family behind Fu Yuanshan whom Yan Chuan killed, as well as those related to Fu Manduo who seemingly died under circumstances related to Yan Chuan, two third-rank Divine Generals, two branches of the Fu Family, plus friends and relatives of Fu Yuanshan and Fu Manduo; gathering 202 Primordial Pills isn’t hard.

This bounty is nothing compared to the 2000-3000 Primordial Pill bounties at the top of the "Kill List", but those people are nearly all at Innate Peak, Sixth Grade or above, and as for Yan Chuan?

"Innate Second Layer."

"Can kill Second Rank in an outbreak, but can only escape when encountering the Third Rank."

Based on Yan Chuan’s performance in Nanxiong City, he’s at most considered ’Half-step Three’, any Fourth-rank Divine General coming at him would have a chance to crush and kill him.

Primordial Pills!

Not to mention Fourth-rank Divine Generals, even Fifth and Sixth Grades might be tempted.

So after the bounty was posted on Yan Chuan, countless ’Shadow Assassins’, ’Blood Drop Killers’ targeted him, but because after the Nanxiong City incident there was no trace of Yan Chuan anymore.

Even purchasing information about Yan Chuan from the Blood Shadow Temple, the dossier only detailed his actions in Nanxiong City, at Nanyue Lake, including how he killed Fu Yuanshan, and his performance against Fu Xixiang, nothing else was found, such as his origins, whereabouts, they simply had none.

The bounty tempted many.

Yet nobody could find him.

Another pie that only could be seen but not eaten.

The Blood Shadow Temple’s "Kill List" has many such bounty tasks, as long as the bounty is far above one’s head, like Yan Chuan’s case, either it’s quickly fulfilled and removed from the "Kill List" or, like Yan Chuan, he vanished after the incident, waiting till the heat dissipates to come back in a new guise, masking all skills, methods, and even habits originally known to the Blood Shadow Temple.

All places leave traces.

Even if disguised, over time, exposure risk remains high.

As for Yan Chuan——

"I exposed quite a bit in Nanxiong City," ’Wave Riding Micro Steps’, ’Holy Fire Order Divine Skill’, ’Ghost Prison Yin Wind Roar’, including ’Xingyi Boxing’, were all once revealed."

Yan Chuan carefully recalled that he didn’t pay attention at the time, only realizing upon reflection how much Absolute Skill he revealed in Nanxiong City, fearing he couldn’t count them all, worried something was missed.

"Get me Yan Chuan’s dossier." Yan Chuan looked at Mo Yuan.

Mo Yuan had it ready early, fetched a booklet from her chest and handed it to Yan Chuan: "One Primordial Pill."
