Chapter 2333: Bait Fishing

~7 min read 1,319 words

The clone looked at Yue Laogui's Storage Ring and couldn't help but remark, "That old guy, just as he said, is truly destitute!"

The clone also sucked Yue Laogui's cane toward himself.

After all, it's also a super Divine Rank weapon capable of blocking the Sky Devourer, so the clone's effort wasn't in vain.

At this moment, the wound on his palm has already healed completely.

This move not only made Hei Feng look at him with new respect, but also shocked the Martial Cultivators in the tavern.

The reason these Martial Cultivators fear Yue Laogui is that his methods of harming others are constantly varied, and he can also poison people.

Yet the clone dared to take Yue Laogui's Storage Ring and weapon, which made them regard him a bit more highly.

"Are you about to strike me?"

Hei Feng asked the clone at this moment.

"I said, I still don't want to kill you!"

The clone, fearing she was worried that he wanted to kill her, fought him with his life.

Unexpectedly, Hei Feng misunderstood her even more.

She thought the clone was plotting something illicit against her.

So she used True Essence to force the poison onto her hand, then pretended to be poisoned, staggered, and fell into the clone's arms.

The clone immediately caught her, simultaneously detoxifying her and releasing his Soul into her Sea of Consciousness, planting a Slave Seal on her.

As soon as Hei Feng made contact with the clone, she immediately poisoned him, but the clone began actively drawing the toxins out of her body.

"She can detoxify?"

Hei Feng felt a surge of joy, thinking she might be saved.

But then she discovered the clone launched a Spiritual Soul Attack on her.

Hei Feng felt a chill, still thinking the clone intended to control her via his Soul.

"You've overthought it; I have no intention of making advances toward you.

I'm just looking for some information."

The clone immediately sensed her thoughts and hurriedly explained to her.

Then he promptly performed a Soul Search, learning about Black Kill information within Hei Feng's Sea of Consciousness.

The experience he uncovered about Hei Feng was that since joining Black Kill, she had never taken an external mission; she only killed assassins within Black Kill.

In this situation, it's hard to judge whether Black Kill intends to eliminate Hei Feng because of this.

Yet her suspicion isn't entirely baseless.

Otherwise, why would so many Black Kill assassins be listed as targets for pursuit?

So the clone couldn't decide at once whether to eliminate Hei Feng.

"Fine, let's just keep her for a few more days first!"

After Hei Feng learned the clone had no other lewd intentions, she felt very embarrassed, realizing she had overthought it herself.

But now that the Slave Seal has been placed on her, she can only obey his commands.

After the clone cleared all the toxins from her body, he directly ushered her into the Space World, then left with Zhao Hu and Yu Yao.

The other Martial Cultivators, seeing Hei Feng recovered and two super Divine Realm masters protecting the clone, naturally dared not intervene, watching them leave with open eyes.

The clone's Divine Sense continuously scanned the surroundings and found that those Martial Cultivators indeed were not tracking them.

Yet a faint Divine Sense kept sweeping toward him from time to time.

Ye Liuyun was very familiar with these tracking and probing methods of assassins, and immediately thought he might be targeted by a fairly strong assassin.

So after returning to the city, he didn't go back to the inn but went to the Treasure Gathering Guild and bought a Side Courtyard.

He had Zhao Hu and Yu Yao guard outside, and had the captured Formation Master Lao Yuanfeng set up Formations inside the courtyard and rooms.

After the Formations were set, he then released Hei Feng.

Hei Feng was quite clever, immediately realizing Ye Liuyun intended to use her as bait to lure more assassins.

But she knew she couldn't resist now, so she immediately took out a Divine Crystal and began cultivating to quickly restore her strength.

The clone also had Zhao Hu and Yu Yao each cultivate in their own rooms, staying alert for any assassin attacks.

He himself also began cultivating.

His current cultivation aims to suppress Mysterious Origin, and once Ye Liuyun's Golden Pupil and the Foreign Tribe's three eyes merge, the two of them can break through together.

To avoid being affected by attacks, he also released Magic Vine to preemptively bring underground guardians to the Side Courtyard, and the Illusion Hand, cloaked by an Invisibility Cloak, hid in the room, ready to counter ambushes.

Hei Feng's strength wasn't very high; many would want to kill her, so preparing extra measures in advance is prudent.

The clone's speculation proved correct; their Side Courtyard was occasionally scanned by Martial Cultivators' Divine Sense, and more people were taking an interest in them.

However, the Soul that had previously scanned him only appeared twice more.

That night, several Black Kill mercenary assassins broke in, but all fell into the Illusion Array set by Lao Yuanfeng, and the clone, cloaked in an Invisibility Cloak, dispatched each with a single blade.

After Hei Feng finished cultivating, she chatted with him.

"How many have you baited so far?"

"Only seven; they're all too weak and not worth much!"

Ye Liuyun said with some regret.

"They're all just testing!"

Hei Feng analyzed.

The clone's Divine Sense also sensed that no stronger ones had arrived, so he temporarily stopped cultivating and roasted some meat to eat.

After it was done, he handed a piece to Hei Feng.

"Why don't you kill me?"

Hei Feng seized the chance to ask the clone.

"I'm also very curious about Black Kill, and I want to know whether they clean up assassins."

"And the Holy Land Dynasty can tolerate its existence; I also want to know why."

The Clone said.

"The Holy Land Dynasty cannot find Black Kill's lair!"

Hei Feng said smoothly.

The Clone shook his head, thinking that just by a single sign they could locate the Black Killing Secret Realm, so how could the Holy Land Dynasty possibly fail to find it.

Finding one and eliminating it one by one wouldn't make Black Kill spread all over the lands.

"Any hired assassin can easily obtain the sign from Black Kill, and there is no Divine Soul Contract restriction; so how could such a powerful dynasty be unable to locate it?"

Hei Feng, upon hearing that, also fell into contemplation.

She had only considered how Black Kill treats assassins like them, not expecting all this.

Now, after hearing Ye Liuyun's words, she also found it indeed rather odd.

At that moment, another Martial Cultivator outside fell into a Formation, and the Clone immediately went to clean it up.

The Martial Cultivator who crashed into the Formation this time was considerably stronger than the previous one.

The Clone's ambushes were all detected by him.

So the Clone simply abandoned the invisibility cloak, stepped out to fight that Martial Cultivator, drained all his True Essence, and then devoured the Martial Cultivator's Soul.

Their battle's aftereffects were all absorbed by the Formation, so it did not attract the attention of those outside.

"Take down someone with decent strength!"

After the Clone returned, Hei Feng said.

But before he could sit down to rest, three more Martial Cultivators broke into the Formation, and he could only go fight again.

"They are draining you!"

Hei Feng used Transmission Voice to remind the Clone.

The Clone smiled and, unconcerned, said, "If they can completely drain me, I'll admire them!"

Ye Liuyun's and the Clone's Universal Cauldron contain Mysterious Origin sufficient to transmute ten times the Yuan Pills at once, and moreover he also has Storage Yuan Stone, so how could those Martial Cultivators possibly exhaust it?
