I Can Reap Qi Fortune from Players-Chapter 424 - 217: The Assassination Arrives!

"Those academy mentors, have they gone to the capital city?"

In Xirong Academy, Doukou Hong and others looked up at the sky.

"Hmph, they’ve gone to slack off!" The Sword Fairy snorted coldly, unable to say much.

Just like how these tributors lack a sense of belonging, the Sword Fairy actually doesn’t feel much about these people either.

Were it not for the academy genuinely needing to recruit some mentors, she wouldn’t bother with them.

Moreover, the newly recruited tributors aren’t slaves.

Most of the time, they are free.

The funny thing is, they’re going to the capital city to rob the imperial palace, right under the emperor’s nose.

"What do you think?" the Sword Fairy couldn’t help but ask.

Xin Xichen smiled, "Just ignore them."

Now everyone is eager to explore the capital city... but they don’t realize it’s all within this sage’s calculations.

These spies exploring the imperial palace, once exposed, their bodies can also be burned, turning these subsequent heretics into his knowledge foundation.

This makes his Dharma Aspect in Xinyi State City even stronger!

Jiu Shui Saint is truly too clever for his own good.

He sent so many geniuses from various major sects as spies... if they were burnt by himself, he would master the most advanced techniques of various great sects in the Postnatal Spiritual Root era.

He would also become the foremost figure of this era.

Opening new domains, creating the latest Sheng Shi for humanity.

Yes.

Even surpassing the era ruled by him, Jiu Shui Saint.

At this moment, the Sword Fairy raised her thumb: "Emperor, you are truly impressive, especially with this latest reform of the defense tower’s artifact spirits."

Xin Xichen: "It’s okay, anyway, I see your artifact spirits are so anthropomorphic, I’m giving you a new thought to make them less human-like!"

The Sword Fairy nodded, "I’ve been taught."

Beside them, Doukou Hong, Xinyi Baisan, and others had somewhat stiff expressions.

Speaking of artifact spirits...

Because a few days ago, the sage led the Sword Fairy in a new type of artifact spirit transformation, changing the sneaky artifact spirits to look more horrifying and frightening.

The sage smiled, fixing his gaze on the few of them: "We should start building the high tower."

"It’s just a few towers, aren’t there many more to go?" the Sword Fairy asked curiously.

"It’s fine."

The sage said, "I have my plans... We continue to build, and the opponents’ assassins are also continuing their preparations."

"Both sides are preparing, but our advantage will be reducing, better to release these few towers first, let them become fearful, afraid we’ll build more, and immediately launch an attack on us."

The Sword Fairy said no more.

Though she loves to chatter, acting as a lively entertainer, she wouldn’t be foolish at critical times to hinder decisiveness of the bigwigs.

"Then let’s start installing the defense towers."

Boom!

Soon, several Giant Spirit God-like Dharma Aspects placed a high tower on the Central Ring.

The lighthouse stood majestically, like an eternal sentinel, scanning the outer and inner rings in this Central Ring area.

"What’s that?"

"So tall, so giant!"

On the ground of Ximen, countless eyes were filled with curiosity.

...

...

...

Above the nursery.

In a garden shrouded in mist. 𝕗𝐫𝐞𝕖𝕨𝐞𝗯𝚗𝕠𝘃𝐞𝚕.𝐜𝗼𝚖

It seemed a few people were overlooking, gazing at the pond below.

This pond was extraordinarily peculiar, a miniature Nine-State map, covered in mist, with rushing rivers and sprawling mountains.

Above it was collected information of all kinds.

"According to the latest info, all the cities in Xinyi Continent have gathered. Are they preparing for refuge?"

"Xinyi State City, that one, has actually built a high tower?"

An old man with white hair, dressed in a silk long robe, sighed.

His face was wrinkled, and his pupils were golden, as if the sun and moon were flowing in them, reflecting the infinite stars.

This is the Self-Transformation Realm, the gaze alone is as intimidating as the sun and moon.

The Thousand Knowledge Sect, claimed to be the foremost in selling information across the Nine-States, the sect leader is: Chang Wudao.

Nobody knew that the creator behind this neutral sect known for selling and collecting information was an ancient entity from a tomb.

Someone beside spoke: "Lord Chang Wudao, he built the high tower, it must be by inviting the Xirong Divine Craftsman, given the setup, it seems they’re planning to encircle the entire State City."

Chang Wudao smiled: "If we delay any longer, the defense will become more daunting, we must take action!"

"Act immediately?" someone pondered.

"Yes."

Chang Wudao, with hands behind his back, showed a proud expression:

"No matter how strong he is, it’s just a Dharma Aspect, leaving the body in the capital city, a mere relic of a bygone era, how could he make me afraid?"

"If not for those lurking figures, mutually guarded, not exerting full force, merely joining Dharma Aspect to encircle and kill, how could he be so insolent?"

"Originally, I intended to let him off for a while, but that boy wants an inch, goes a mile, his Dharma Aspect left the capital city, wanting to duel with ours equally... courting death."

He came from the former dynasty of the former dynasty, currently mere juniors in his eyes.

He wasn’t sure how many years older he was.

He witnessed the founding emperor of the Xin Dynasty, even assassinated that ancestor of Xin Country who established it, now just an extinguished last saint of a fallen kingdom.

How could he dare to be so arrogant?

Having seen two dynasties rise and fall, how could he possibly be afraid?

"However, our allies, the female poison doctor who claimed could poison the saint, is already..." a powerhouse frowned, "Moreover, we’re not fully prepared yet."

"As we continue preparing, the other side will continue constructing high towers..." Dao Wuchang smiled, "Now, can a single defense tower guard against us?"

"The last saint is dead, we’re only wary of the Xirong Divine Craftsman, who has infinite potential, crafting mysterious immortal artifact towers."

He shook his head and said, "We can’t let this construction continue."

After speaking, his gaze skimmed over to some presences in other secret realms.

How unfortunate.

The other Self-Transformation Realm cultivators each had small groups, hoping to seize the opportunity to act.

"They hide in the shadows like rats, too scared to act, let’s see me kill him to glorify my name Chang Wudao."

Chang Wudao burst into laughter, a gigantic Three Flowers emerged from above his head, golden sunlight entirely converged onto the golden flowers, forming a War God clad in golden armor on the lotus platform, like a celestial god descending.

"Follow me!"

The War God on the flower seat leaped, flew down the nursery, across layers of clouds, with the wind howling into Xinyi State City.

An urgent assassination requires no words, in an instant, they landed in the central inner ring of Xinyi State City, in the Xinyi Royal Mansion.

Boom Boom!!

The terrifying shockwaves appeared to overturn the sky and earth, erupting fiercely.

The people of Thousand Cities in the Xinyi Continent were immersed in the joy of the recent relocation, suddenly feeling the sky burst with thunder.

The travelers at every city gate were dumbfounded, looking up.

In the clear sky, giants suddenly stood atop the clouds, their faces surrounded by mist, refracting rainbows.

"What is that??!" someone screamed.

All the people of Ximen were stunned.

Plop!

Some tourists dropped the snacks they were holding.
