200: Chapter 200 Hiring a Murderer

"What gibberish are you spouting?"

"Die for me!"

Ji Taichang's hand seal changed, and the snow-white Flying Sword suddenly transformed into a sky full of sword shadows, sealing off the surrounding space and slashing down towards the dark figure from all directions!

"Umbral Shadow Demon Pupil, open—"

The dark figure let out a cold shout, and a black cross lit up in both eyes, spinning rapidly. In an instant, a terrifying wave like a vast ocean erupted, shattering all the sword shadows and blocking everything.

"Oh? Using pupil arts in front of me?"

"Then I'll use you to test my blade!"

A cold arc curled at the corner of Ji Taichang's mouth, and his eyes lit up with a mysterious and supreme holy radiance. A surge of invisible Mental Energy spread out, causing all things in heaven and earth to shift, directly forming a grand and boundless illusion Domain!

Heavenly Fox True Pupil, open!!

Within Ji Taichang's eyes, it seemed as if endless worlds of Chaos were being born and destroyed. Layer upon layer of illusions intertwined and shifted, causing the dark figure's body to freeze in place, its consciousness sinking into the illusion, unable to break free!

In the real world, perhaps only a few short breaths had passed.

But within the illusion, the dark figure had already experienced thousands of years and suffered through the torture and impact of countless layers of illusions. Its consciousness was somewhat scattered, on the brink of collapse!

"Tell me your origin."

Ji Taichang walked step by step to the dark figure, looking down from above with an indifferent tone that carried unquestionable authority!

The dark figure's eyes were hollow and confused as it subconsciously said, "I come from the Eastern Desolate Region's top assassin organization, Night Owl. My code name is Hui Yi."

Ji Taichang raised an eyebrow. "Who commissioned you to assassinate me?"

Hui Yi said dully, "I don't know... but the reward offered by the other party was very generous. They required that after I killed you, I bring your Storage Ring back to the employer, and I am not allowed to privately open or take the treasures inside..."

"Storage Ring?"

Ji Taichang smiled, having already guessed who the employer was!

Thinking about it, there was only one Sect power that would plot for Ji Taichang's Storage Ring.

Chiyang Sect!!

Not long ago, a Body Integration Stage Old Ancestor from the Chiyang Sect personally came to snatch the yang yao disk, but was beaten back by Nan Yin.

Fearing Nan Yin's fierce reputation, the Chiyang Sect didn't dare to strike openly. That was why they secretly hired an assassin organization to assassinate Ji Taichang!

"The Chiyang Sect really is persistent... I obtained this yang yao disk through my own ability. What does it have to do with them? Yet they insist on snatching it..."

"In that case, don't blame me for being impolite!"

Ji Taichang quickly thought of an idea, and a cruel sneer curled at the corner of his mouth!

Buzz—

Ji Taichang fully activated the power of the Heavenly Fox True Pupil. A holy and brilliant light flared in his eyes, and his majestic Mental Energy almost materialized, causing Hui Yi's body to tremble uncontrollably as her consciousness suffered a terrifying suppression like a mountain collapse or a tsunami!

Hui Yi was only at the sixth level of the Void Refinement Stage and simply could not withstand the full power of the Heavenly Fox True Pupil!

In just over a dozen breaths of time.

Hui Yi's eyes flickered with a strange white light as she knelt before Ji Taichang, her tone respectful and fanatical: "This servant, Hui Yi, greets Master!"

Hui Yi's blurry figure became clear and real. She wore tight-fitting black clothes, and although she was wrapped tightly, the towering curves of her chest were presented even more clearly.

She had a beautiful face, but it was interlaced with black lines, giving her a bit more of a demonic and evil aura.

"Contact your employer. Say that the target has been killed and arrange to meet here for the transaction."

Ji Taichang commanded indifferently.

"As you command, Master!"

Hui Yi nodded respectfully, took out a communication Magic Treasure from her Storage Ring, and began to contact the employer.

Ji Taichang used the power of the Heavenly Fox True Pupil to quietly turn invisible.

One day later.

A streak of sword light pierced the sky and quickly landed on this large mountain.

The person wore a loose black robe, a mask, and a hat. They were equipped with a Magic Treasure that concealed their aura, making it impossible to see their true identity.

"Did you really kill him so quickly?"

"Where is the item?"

The black-robed person's voice was hoarse and disguised. Their eyes were filled with suspicion as they scrutinized Hui Yi.

It was no wonder the black-robed person was suspicious.

After all, even the Chiyang Sect's Body Integration Stage Old Ancestor had failed before. Hui Yi was only at the Void Refining stage, yet she had succeeded in one strike. It was a bit too smooth.

"Of course. That person was tempering himself alone in this Great Wilderness. He was just a junior at the Soul Transformation Stage. With my methods, I killed him easily."

"This is the Storage Ring he dropped. See for yourself."

Hui Yi casually tossed a Storage Ring to the black-robed person.

The black-robed person was half-believing and half-doubting. After catching the Storage Ring, they subconsciously sent a wisp of Divine Sense inside to check.

But just as the black-robed person's attention was on the Storage Ring, a sudden change occurred!!

A snow-white Flying Sword abruptly appeared behind the black-robed person, suddenly erupting with a chilling killing intent!

In this critical moment.

The black-robed person suddenly turned around, a long scimitar instantly appearing in their hand, bursting with brilliant blade light. A scorching heat rushed towards them!

Clang!!

The blade and sword collided, producing a deafening boom that shook the mountains and valleys. The momentum was astonishing.

The black-robed person forcibly blocked the Flying Sword's attack!

"I knew there was something wrong with you!!"

The black-robed person suddenly looked up and glared at Hui Yi. "Is your Night Owl organization planning to rob the robber? Do you no longer want your reputation and basic credibility?!"
