Additional Rewards

Zhou Ziming waved his hand.

"Thank you for your kindness, Senior Brother, but we want to give it a try!"

Seeing that he couldn't persuade them, the Senior Brother could only sigh.

"In that case, I will register it on my end."

After the registration was completed.

The Disciple gave the three of them maps and a membership list of Sea Tide.

It included information on Sea Tide's high-end combat power, their assets, and so on.

"Besides the mission reward, if—and I mean if—you really complete the mission, you will take sixty percent of Sea Tide's assets, while forty percent will belong to Blood Rain Tower. Do you have any objections?"

Zhou Ziming nodded.

"No objections!"

The Disciple nodded.

"Alright, sign and press your thumbprint here!"

After the few of them completed the formalities.

The Disciple brought out three cages again.

Inside each cage was a blood butterfly.

"These are Blood Butterflies for communicating with members outside of Blood Rain Tower. Once you drop blood to claim ownership, you will naturally understand their wonders!"

"Of course, if you have any needs during the mission, you can also request them through these Blood Butterflies, and someone will naturally provide assistance!"

Zhou Ziming nodded.

Subsequently, the three of them left carrying the cages.

Then, they had the Blood Butterflies recognize them as masters.

After claiming ownership, the Blood Butterflies rested quietly on their shoulders.

"Old Zhou, Old Zhou!"

Suddenly, a blood butterfly made a sound.

It was a voice transmission.

Moreover, it was Shangguan Yun's voice.

"Can you hear me?"

Zhou Ziming nodded.

"I can hear you!"

Shangguan Yun was very curious.

"This little thing is quite impressive!"

"But Old Zhou, do you have any plans?"

Zhou Ziming shook his head.

"I don't really have a plan; I intend to just start killing!"

Shangguan Yun shook his head.

"That definitely won't work. I just contacted the intelligence personnel in charge of this mission and learned that the Saint of Sea Tide seems to have already hooked up with Taihe Tower."

"In other words, Sea Tide is now equivalent to a force under Taihe Tower's name!"

"Attacking directly definitely won't work!"

"Besides, we're doing assassinations. How can we do it so openly?"

Zhou Ziming was curious.

"Does that mean you have a plan?"

Shangguan Yun mentioned something interesting.

"Actually, the Young Master of Haichao used to be a simp for the daughter of the Tower Master of Taihe Tower!"

"But the Young Miss of Taihe Tower eventually went with you, and because of that, you became enemies with the Young Master of Haichao!"

"But now, the Young Miss of Taihe Tower has suddenly agreed to the matter and is even protecting Sea Tide. It's so hard to guess who she's guarding against!"

Zhou Ziming: "..."

"For me, this is actually a kind of extra reward, because I can now wipe out a force without any burden."

"But, does this have anything to do with your so-called plan?"

Shangguan Yun smiled slightly.

"We're assassins. When the time comes, as long as we make the Young Master of Haichao kill the Young Miss of Taihe Tower directly, Taihe Tower will surely destroy Sea Tide!"

"This way, Taihe Tower won't suspect us, and we'll complete the mission easily!"

Zhou Ziming: "???"

"You mean, we find Shangguan Xiaorong? Since the Young Master of Haichao used Shangguan Xiaorong's Clone as a Spiritual Root, Shangguan Xiaorong can naturally control it, or make the Young Master of Haichao lose control and accidentally kill that Young Miss of Taihe Tower?"

Shangguan Yun nodded.

"Exactly!"

Zhou Ziming couldn't help but take a deep breath.

"You are truly sinister!"

Shangguan Yun waved his hand.

"Mainly, Sea Tide isn't anything good either. Over the years, they've been cultivating Spiritual Roots, and several islands have already been wiped out by them."

"But the Spiritual Roots they cultivated all failed; only our Northern Continent succeeded."

"If it hadn't succeeded, I reckon Sea Tide would have continued cultivating!"

"So, to destroy them, I don't care what methods are used, and I have no burden!"

"Of course, there's also a personal grudge. For instance, I used to work in Sea Tide's mines. If I hadn't been useless, I probably wouldn't have survived!"

Zhou Ziming nodded.

"Fine, then we'll do as you say. But if it doesn't work, I will take action personally!"

Shangguan Yun laughed.

"Alright, but with you here, I'm a hundred percent sure!"

...Sea Tide~

At this moment, inside a bedchamber.

A woman stared blankly at herself in a bronze mirror.

The Maid beside her said with a smile.

"Young Miss, since you've decided, why be like this?"

"Besides, you also said that Zhou Ziming didn't really like you back then; he only used sweet words to deceive you so he could enter Taihe Tower!"

"Furthermore, now that the Young Master of Haichao has the Yin and Yang Divine Tree, his future prospects are immeasurable, and he is so devoted to you. There's nothing bad about it, right?"

The woman shook her head.

"When I made this decision, I indeed felt that way!"

"And I also thought that my achievements wouldn't be obtained by relying on a man. Even without Zhou Ziming, I could still reach the Peak!"

At this point, the woman fell silent.

The entire Central Continent was paying attention to Zhou Ziming.

What Zhou Ziming did after coming to the Central Continent, and where he was now.

Other forces had some news more or less.

And now, others had confirmed one thing.

That was, Zhou Ziming had already joined Blood Rain Tower.

This news was accurate.

In other words, even if Zhou Ziming didn't curry favor with her, he could still join other forces.

For a moment, the woman's heart was in turmoil.

"How could it be like this? He should have needed my help, needed me to ignore my family's opposition, before he could enter Taihe Tower!"

"But why is it different now? Why could he enter Blood Rain Tower without my help?"

The woman felt no sense of vengeful pleasure in her heart.

Instead, she now felt a tightness in her chest.

It was as if she had abandoned Zhou Ziming just to see him suffer more.

What she wanted to see was Zhou Ziming kneeling before her, begging for mercy like a dog.

She wanted to see Zhou Ziming's Dao Heart shatter when he saw her in another man's arms.

But Zhou Ziming's current actions were like telling her.

"Without you, I'll only live better!"

This made the woman feel very uncomfortable.

The Maid narrowed her eyes and smiled.

At the same time, she muttered in her heart.

"What are you posing for, you bitch? You ungrateful thing. If Zhou Ziming hadn't helped Taihe Tower ward off disasters time and again, Taihe Tower would have been destroyed long ago!"

"What were you doing then?"

"Now that you've gained memories of your past life, you really think you're something?"

"I'd like to see how your Taihe Tower deals with being plotted against and framed for the matter concerning the sister of the Palace Mistress of Cold Moon Palace without Zhou Ziming."

But thinking of this.

The Maid suddenly shook her head.

"No, no, I need to find a way to run away quickly!"

"Although the current situation is different from what I know, the character for 'Danger' above Sea Tide is almost dripping blood!"

Thinking of this, the Maid said, "Young Miss, it's getting late. You should rest early; I won't disturb you!"

The woman nodded.

The Maid walked out of the room and gently closed the door.

Then she turned around and couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.

Because she saw a person holding a dog, and that dog's face had been slapped by that person until it looked like it had been stung by bees.
