Chapter 301: The second mission-2

"You are quite insidious, junior. But I like this personality of yours. finished three cups of wine with me as a mark of our brotherhood. Mission details could be discussed later."

The two lited their wine cups,  interlocked the hands holding them, and drank the liquid clean. The ceremony was repeated two more times and had established a formal brotherhood between the two.

"We should enjoy the wine and the view for some more time. I am expecting some guest who I need to take care of."

'Who are you waiting for? Is it a friend of yours?"

"Let's just say that they are an inconvenience to this mission of mine, and hence need to be eliminated. But before the guest arrives, I have to ask. Wh is your cultivation level now?" LI Meng was an intermediate Qi king when he left the academy to do his mission. Ren Wang expected him to have improved his base by a level.

"I did come across some fortunate encounters." Li meng released his Qi, which soon covered the entire room. Ren Wang was shocked after feeling the sensation. Peak level7 of qi king. How is this possible. Even surprising than that was the fact that the law energy emitted from Li meng's body was ten times stronger and purer than before. 

Ren Wang gulped down a mouthful of saliva. He never expected his junior brother to be such a monster in cultivation. Just what sort of fortunate encounter did he come across.

"Did you gain any inheritance within the Taiwan mountains?"

"You know about the inheritance present within there." Li Meng was surprised that Ren Wang knew about the inheritances.

"Taiwan mountain was an ancient battlefield which later levelled up into a volcano. It is said that two great forces practising in elemental energies clashed here and hence there are many inheritances within the mountain range."

"The encounter I came across isn't some sort of inheritance. It was a powerful Qi vein. The level of energy was not too high for me, and hence I was able to devour its energy and grow my cultivation base."

"You managed to devour a Qi vein." As time passed, this younger brother of his brought more and more surprises with him/. If he could easily gulp down a resource such as a Qi vein., wouldn't it mean that he would have no problem levelling up to the peak of qi king if he has enough resources?

"Let me check your body." Ren wang inspected Li meng's body and couldn't find any side effects. H managed to gulp down a whole qi vein. Even he wouldn't be so casual in absorbing energy.

"It's good that your strength has increased by so much. It means you can play a role in the next event. Get ready for a showdown." The door was busted and a black hooded figure walked in holding an injured person.

"Just who dares to book the whole third floor. You have got guts to hinder my teams from enjoying some time of rest." The black-hooded figure was about to continue when he looked at Ren Wang. All the arrogance from before went to drain directly. Why is this bastard here?

"The guest has arrived. We should get on with the show. There are 10 people in their team, two of which are Qi emperors. He is one of them, and the other one is on the second floor at the moment. I will take care of the two."

"Your task is to kill the other 8. I have to warn you that they are highly trained assassins. Be on your guard>' Ren Wang didn't explain the situation any further and attacked the man in front. The man couldn't react in time as he couldn't make sense of the situation. Ren Wang's attack was on a whim.

LI Meng didn't waste time and rushed towards the bottom floor. That was where the 8 people were. When he reached the ground floor, the 8 people were proceeding to go up.

"You don't need to go there." LI meng said.

The 8 people were instantly on guard. When they saw Li Meng they were surprised. Isn't that what they were trying to find? He was Li Meng, the person whom the Thunder child wanted to meet.

"You are Li Meng." The 8 people released their energies. One of them picked up his message talisman to inform their two leaders who were on the third floor.

"You don't need to inform the two. They are busy with their rights. You should think about the situation you are in as of now." The 8 people found the situation to be a bit comical. The situation seemed pretty clear to them. They were having an advantage in the cultivation and numbers.

"I think the situation is pretty clear. Why don't you come with us? Thunder Child would like to talk with you." Thunder Child was the one who sent these assassins. Li Meng expected them to find his location, but he was hidden within the Taiwan mountain for so long, how come they didn't know of his location.

"That bastard knew about this group and he let them stay alive until I finished my mission." He was sure that Ren Wang knew about these people for a long time. This was a test of his strength.

"So my guess was correct. You are sent by Thunder Child after all. I have to say that brother plan things well. He could have easily eliminated you, but he waited for me to complete the first mission."He tried to use words to spook them and it worked. Their expression changed to that of surprise.

Li Meng took out a long sword from the Crimson Lord world. It was the black Dragon sword that belonged to the first inheritance he gained from the royal grounds.

It was only after reaching the Qi King level could he manage to understand how remarkable Black Dragon Emperor was. This sword was a peak Emperor weapon.

"Who is the strongest one of them?" Li Menga sked the Keeper.

"the one who took out the message talisman and the one who is on the extreme left.

"Good." Li Meng lifted his sword and pointed at the two people the Keeper mentioned." I will give you two people a chance. Surrender and I will just ask a few questions."

"Is he insane?" One of the other six thought. He was brimming with anger to see Li Meng acting so high and mi8ghty. He was someone who had stepped into the peak of intermediate Qi king. How could he just be ignored? He rushed out with his dagger.

Li Meng didn't even look in the attackers' direction. He just swung his sword, and a powerful force swept out of it. Intent, art and law3 energy were mixed in the incredible attack. The attacker realised the might at the last point, but it was too late. The slash swept through his neck.

Blood splashed in all direction as the head separated from the attacker's body. The remaining people were looking aghast. They couldn't even see the attack, and their friend was already killed.

Li Meng was still looking at the two people he had pointed out to. " I will give 20 breaths to decided. Meanwhile, you will see the result if you dare to defy my suggestion." 

An assassins biggest weakness was being in the light. You lost the upper hand in assassination if you are discovered by the opponent. L meng didn't give them time to plan their attack, much less seek shelter in the shadow.n It was the first time he was trying out the might of weapon laws he had cultivated. Combined with the weapon intent, which was at the peak level, the attack was equivalent to Dominator's fist's first move.

"I never expected the blend of intent and law to be this powerful."

"You should find more opponents to get acquainted with your cultivation base. You don't need to concentrate on upgrading your cultivation since your normal breakthroughs will make that happen. You need to gather fighting experience. The battle is the best way to go.

One of them died, then two, then three, until the remaining five people were killed, leaving only the two most powerful Qi kings alive. It was difficult for Li Meng to fight them at the same time. Even if he had the power of so many laws, both of the remaining two were at the peak of the Qi king level.

He was confident in killing them, but if they suddenly chose to escape, only one of them can be taken care of.

"Did you two make your decision." Li meng asked in a serious tone. These two were talented assassins who were at the peak of Qi king. This was the challenge he wanted to experience.

"It was a wrong move to kill them. Now the result is certain for sure. You are not going to leave this place alive. He took his message token and busted it, informing his group members about the emergency.

"I told you that you needn't expect your leaders at the top floor to come o your rescue. They are busy in their matters."

"We assassins are brothers of each other. Since you killed our brothers, they will be avenged by your deaths. Did you think that the two on the third floor are the only ones looking for you? There are many of our brothers spread throughoutthe region. That message token informed everyone of them about you."

"You are formally marked as the number one target of our group."

"I guess you choose to defy me. I guess we need to go with soul search then." Li Meng rushed ta the two. Just in time, one of them took out a pouch and threw it at the floor. Black smoke burst out of the pouch.

"Such –pathetic smoke bombs. The creator must be a newbie at this stuff. Help me find the two."

"Both of them are rushing towards different directions."

"As expected. Choose the stronger one. We will let the other one go."

"Go to the left, and continue for ten steps, before turning north-west. You should be able to get out of the smoke, and you can see the stronger one trying to climb the floors."

Li Meng didn't say another word and rushed towards the indicated direction.
