Five days later.
Above a vast mountain range.
A huge warship was being pulled at high speed by a nine-headed jade unicorn.
At this moment, Jun Changsheng was sitting in the palace, holding this rune-shaped stone in my hand.
This is a great opportunity obtained from Su Fan.
The reason he didn't amplify it ten thousandfold was because he had a lingering feeling that amplifying it would inevitably cause a huge commotion.
Therefore, he suppressed the urge to enhance it and played with it in his hands like a toy.
"How long until we return to the Holy Land?!"
Suddenly, Jun Changsheng's leisurely voice slowly drifted out.
Outside the palace, Su Lingtian, who had been guarding the entrance, twitched his ears slightly.
Upon hearing his own Holy Son's leisurely voice, he acted swiftly.
Outside the palace, bowing respectfully, he said, "Your Majesty, it will take two days to return to the Holy Land!"
Upon hearing this, Jun Changsheng's expression remained calm.
But suddenly he raised his head, and through the palace gates, his cold gaze seemed to traverse an endless distance, landing on several dark figures appearing on the road ahead of the warship.
"This is..." Jun Changsheng's face showed a look of confusion.
Soon, the warship they were on slowed down, and Su Lingtian's expression changed drastically.
Seeing the several dark figures blocking his way, he roared, "Who are you? How dare you block the path of my Taiyi Holy Son?!"
Several dark figures, their faces obscured by black masks, made it impossible to discern their features.
However, their eyes revealed a look of utter mockery.
"Taiyi Holy Son? Is the one inside Taiyi Holy Son?!"
A man in black asked in an unfriendly tone.
When Su Lingtian saw that it was the other party who was asking the question, a mocking look appeared in his eyes.
Hmph! So who are they? They're just a bunch of ignorant bandits. It seems they wanted to rob passersby to make a living, but they didn't expect to run into a brick wall this time.
Su Lingtian thought to himself.
Then, looking at the men in black before him, his tone turned icy: "You all, now that you know that my Holy Son is sitting inside, why don't you leave immediately?"
Could it be that you intend to make this deep part of the Hundred Thousand Mountains your final resting place?
Su Lingtian thought that these words would scare away the men in black, thus saving them from a major battle and allowing them to return to their sect quickly.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, the men in black showed excitement on their faces.
"Hehe! We've finally waited for you to arrive. We brothers have killed millions of passersby in our quest to kill your Taiyi Holy Son. We thought we'd miss your return, but we've managed to catch you!!"
"Hmph! Kid, don't think you're giving us a chance. If you're going to give us a chance, then we'll give you one. Call out your Holy Son, and once we've taken his head, we might let you go if we're happy!"
"Don't even think about escaping. We brothers have observed you closely. Your Holy Son doesn't have a single decent protector. With your Holy Son's strength, he can't defeat us!"
".. ... ... ..."
As soon as the three men in black finished speaking, an aura of the tenth level of martial arts swept out.
The terrifying aura instantly shattered hundreds of towering peaks in the Hundred Thousand Mountains, creating a massive crater a hundred meters deep in the ground.
Looking down from above, it resembles a giant pit that has just been dug and is ready to bury people.
Watching the actions of these men in black, Su Lingtian stared intently at the three men in black.
His gaze narrowed slightly when he saw a silver token twirling at the waist of a man in black.
He asked with a hint of surprise, "You're assassins from the Shadow Assassins' Tower?!"
As Su Lingtian finished speaking, the expressions of the surrounding disciples changed slightly.
In the Eastern Dao Domain, every respectable force knows about the infamous assassin organization, Shadow Assassin Tower.
In the Shadow Assassin Tower, as long as you can pay the price, whether it's the emperor of a dynasty or any figure from a holy land, the Shadow Assassin Tower will arrange everything for you as long as the reward is sufficient.
And once Shadow Assassin Tower accepts an order, there's no order they can't complete.
Even if they fail once, they will send out assassins to try again, until the target is dead; it's a fight to the death.
What truly made Shadow Assassin Tower infamous was that a prince of a certain dynasty once offended a true disciple of the Xuanhuang Holy Land over a certain matter.
To deal with this true disciple, the dynasty paid a heavy price, having the Shadow Assassin Tower assassinate him three times before finally killing him.
Finally, due to various internal circumstances, the dynasty exposed the matter, and an elder from the Xuanhuang Holy Land was dispatched to overthrow the dynasty overnight.
At this moment, assassins from Shadow Assassin Tower appeared here and clearly stated that their target was Taiyi Holy Son.
This means that as long as Jun Changsheng doesn't die, he will face endless assassination attempts and other threats...
"Where is Taiyi Holy Son? Why hasn't he come out yet? Is he really as cold-blooded and ruthless as the rumors say, caring nothing for the lives of his subordinates?"
"If that's true, then he's truly a hypocrite!"
"... .... …"
As these men in black chanted in unison, the anger of the group that already admired Jun Changsheng was immediately aroused.
"What the hell are you spouting? Did you eat shit yesterday? Your mouth stinks!!!"
"Hmph! You mere assassins dare to attempt to kill the Holy Son of my Taiyi Holy Land? Are you digging your own graves in that pit? Hurry up and lie down, lest you end up with nothing but bones left behind!!!"
"... .... ..."
Several women who had not yet joined Taiyi Holy Son began to hurl insults at the three men in black.
The tone was so vicious that even the assassin, who walked in the shadows and committed countless despicable acts, couldn't help but twitch his lips and reveal an ugly smile.
Just as the group of men in black were about to erupt in anger.
A calm voice slowly drifted out.
"You want to see me, but do you know what the consequences will be after you see me?"
Jun Changsheng's voice at this moment seemed to possess a magical power.
The crowd, who had been agitated and seething with anger, quickly calmed down.
He turned around and looked behind him.
Immediately afterward, they saw a figure emerge with fair skin, a handsome face, and languid phoenix eyes. A white robe accentuated the man's striking good looks.
Like a banished immortal who stepped out of a painting.
"Wow, so handsome!!!" At this moment, a man in black looked at Jun Changsheng with burning eyes and murmured.
"What the hell are you standing there for? We're here to assassinate him, not to look at handsome guys. Even though he's handsome, he's still going to die!!!"
Another man in black shouted at his infatuated companion.
Seeing the three men in black almost turn against each other, Ah Da couldn't help but speak up, "Holy Son, should I take them down?!"
Jun Changsheng shook his head, his gaze icy as he looked at the three men in black, and said in a chilling tone, "No need. We haven't had any activity for days, so let them warm up!"
