Chapter 1446: I Have an Idea

"You used to be like this too?"

Bai Xian'er wore an expression of disbelief as she looked at Ye Zhangqing, what kind of person can break through so casually? He didn't even wish to look for a quiet place, and broke through while speaking.

Faced with Bai Xian'er's shocked inquiry, Ye Zhangqing also smiled helplessly.

"About the same."

"About the same?" Bai Xian'er opened her mouth, for a moment not knowing what to say.

After learning some things about Bai Xian'er, Ye Zhangqing, perhaps out of embarrassment, made an excuse and left after saying only a couple of sentences.

The next day, Bai Xian'er, Qiu Baiyi, Ye Zhangqing, and Xu Jie, a group of four, prepared to set out.

Xu Jie was forcibly shoved in by Yun Xiantai, and no one knows what that idiot said to Yun Xiantai.

Bai Xian'er didn't say much about it; having one more person didn't matter.

The four of them directly boarded a Spatial Spirit Vessel and headed straight for the Yongye Branch.

In the Heiyun Realm there is a Yongye branch; moreover, according to Bai Xian'er, although this is demon territory, as long as you can pay the price, Yongye dares to kill even demons.

Of course, if the demons can afford the price, Yongye won't refuse either.

Put bluntly, Yongye is an organization that recognizes money, not people.

As long as you can pay, Yongye dares to take the job.

Inside the cabin, hearing Bai Xian'er talk about Yongye, Xu Jie's eyes shifted, a plan suddenly came to mind, and he smiled.

"I suddenly have an immature idea."

Huh???

Upon hearing that, Ye Zhangqing turned to look at Xu Jie; seeing his expression, he knew this guy was surely up to something bad again.

Every time this happens, it proves Xu Jie is about to start scheming against people.

"What idea?"

He opened his mouth to ask; upon hearing that, Xu Jie grinned.

"Yongye isn't afraid of demons, and it recognizes money, not people; we can pay them to help us get those three Demonic Essence Fruits."

Yongye is so strong, even possessing an Ancestor Realm expert, and fears no demons.

Then what risk is there? Just pay them directly.

I thought it was some great idea, but that's it? Hearing this, Ye Zhangqing's mouth twitched.

"Senior Brother Three, have you considered whether we can afford this price?"

Huh???

Upon saying that, Xu Jie froze; he really hadn't thought about that point, he just had the idea suddenly and blurted it out.

Needless to say, the price of Demonic Essence Fruits is high but unobtainable, and seizing them undoubtedly offends the demons.

According to Yongye's way of doing things, that price would be even higher.

It is definitely far beyond the value of the Demonic Essence Fruits themselves, so whether we can come up with the money aside, even if we could, it would be a loss.

This plan won't work, Xu Jie muttered.

"Hehe, I was just saying it offhand to lighten the mood."

Upon hearing that, Ye Zhangqing gave him an annoyed glance.

Adjusting what mood? There's nothing to adjust.

The Spatial Spirit Vessel headed all the way to the Yongye Branch, but the journey was far from peaceful.

After all, the Heiyun Realm is a mixed bag with no rules, so encountering several waves of bandits along the way isn't surprising.

These people were indeed audacious to the extreme, directly stopping the Spatial Spirit Vessel.

"Halt!"

However, Bai Xian'er didn't indulge them; she struck directly, killing them on the spot.

Not even seeing who made the move, they vanished in death on the spot, dying mysteriously.

"That's just how the Heiyun Realm is; no need for rules—encounter someone, just kill them."

Still worried Ye Zhangqing might not accept this, Bai Xian'er explained lightly.

Upon hearing that, Ye Zhangqing didn't care; people die for wealth, birds for food—such things are too commonplace to worry about.

The Heiyun Realm is roughly the same size as the Heavenly Martial Realm, far smaller than the Demon Realm.

So although they encountered many attacks along the way, with Bai Xian'er and Qiu Baiyi, two Emperor Sovereigns, they didn't stir up the slightest ripple.

After all, those bandits weren't very strong themselves.

True experts wouldn't fall to such a state, ending up like mere bandits.

If you have strength, you might as well be a space pirate—at least your notoriety spreads.

Such banditry really is too lowly.

When encountering a true expert, all you get is contempt.

Just like Bai Xian'er and Qiu Baiyi, they felt no sympathy, raising a hand to instantly crush them.

After a dusty journey, two days later the group successfully reached the Yongye Branch.

In a desolate mountain range, gazing at the mountains below, Bai Xian'er's eyes showed a hint of nostalgia.

Back then she still remembered that it was here she truly embarked on the path of cultivation.

During this time here, Bai Xian'er experienced happiness and also witnessed true hell.

Yongye's method of cultivating assassins can be described as simple and brutal, extremely cruel.

Those who can't persevere can only become discarded pawns, ending in death and disappearance.

I still recall that, of those who started with me back then, fewer than one percent managed to grow up successfully.

Out of a hundred people, not a single one could survive to adulthood.

"Older sister is now the person in charge of the Yongye branch; many demon clan matters are handled by her."

"And assassins are best at hiding, so I think older sister must have a way to conceal her identity and disguise herself as a demon clan member."

"Bai Xian'er said to herself, this is her speculation."

"After dealing with the demon clan for so many years, it would be strange if she had no means at all."

"The spatial spirit vessel slowly flew into the air above the mountain range, but it hadn't gone far when three black-clad figures wearing evil ghost masks appeared ahead and blocked the way."

"These are the assassins of Yongye."

"Even inside Yongye, their identities are actually extremely secret."

"Although there is no explicit rule forbidding revealing one's identity internally, the many assassins of Yongye are themselves very careful."

"Normally they never show their true faces, always wearing that evil ghost mask that makes anyone who sees it feel uncomfortable."

"After all, as an assassin, one thing you must know is not to trust people too easily."

"Otherwise, you might not even know when you'll be stabbed in the back."

"Halt."

"The three black-clad men blocked everyone's path, and Bai Xian'er proactively walked onto the deck, expressionlessly saying to the three of them."

"I want to see Luosha."

"Huh???"

"As soon as these words were spoken, although their expressions couldn't be seen, their eyes showed an obvious change; they were clearly taken aback for a moment."

"Immediately, the leader coldly asked."

"You want to see the leader?"

"Yes, go report it, and Luosha will naturally know."

"Seeing Bai Xian'er calm and composed, with no intention of making a move, the three black-clad men exchanged a glance; the leader instructed the other two to stay behind while he turned and vanished on the spot, apparently going to seek instructions."
