Chapter 729 - 445: I Kill Myself: 202 Primordial Pills!

"Outside the Four Families and Three Sects in the King City, there’s also a Beast King City in Da Yan Mountain. The ’Beast King’ is a legendary figure, on par with the ’Four Kings and Three Ancestors’. The ’Blood Shadow Temple’ is his enterprise, specializing in the business of intelligence and bounties, and it’s also the largest assassin organization within the Hunxi Territory!" Bai Yang’s voice suddenly lowered significantly when introducing the ’Blood Shadow Temple’.He dared not speak loudly, for fear of startling the Heavenly People above!

...

Yan Chuan was originally most interested in the two major trading houses, not expecting another ’Blood Shadow Temple’ to suddenly appear!

"Assassin organization?"

"Can the Four Families and Three Sects tolerate such an organization’s existence?"

Yan Chuan couldn’t understand how an ’assassin organization’ could exist so openly and even grow large and powerful?

If he were the Four Families and Three Sects, if he were the Four Kings and Three Ancestors, he would have joined hands long ago to crush the ’Blood Shadow Temple’ into pieces, leaving it not a shred of room to survive!

Why leave it there?

The Four Families and Three Sects, if they want to kill someone, have plenty of experts within each family and sect to use, so why place bounties to hire assassins?

On the contrary, for others who want to kill people from the Four Families and Three Sects, it’s extremely difficult and highly risky, but if they issue a task to hire an assassin in the ’Blood Shadow Temple,’ it becomes much easier.

"The existence of the ’Blood Shadow Temple’ is entirely harmful to the Four Families and Three Sects, how can they endure it?" Yan Chuan was puzzled.

Bai Yang furtively looked around, then quietly explained to Yan Chuan: "The Four Families and Three Sects certainly don’t want to endure it, but the Beast King is not easy to deal with either! The Beast King was determined to establish the ’Blood Shadow Temple’, the Four Families and Three Sects once united to attack and strongly resist, even the Four Kings and Three Ancestors got involved, but the Beast King was strong, besides the Beast King City, he stands alone, elusive, killing 742 Heavenly Prides of the Four Families and Three Sects in one month consecutively, ultimately forcing them to compromise and tolerate the Blood Shadow Temple’s existence."

Beast King City, Beast King.

Four Families and Three Sects, Four Kings and Three Ancestors.

These are the Eight Great War God-level forces in Hunxi Royal City, these kings and ancestors, it’s said, are all invincible War Gods.

"Such levels of game-playing, we don’t know, and we dare not say, it’s all street gossip, babble of peddlers and errand boys, they say it, we hear it, it can’t be taken seriously." Bai Yang made another correction.

This is also normal.

Bai Yang is just a little guy who hasn’t even reached the Qi-Blood Limit, merely trying to make a living, hearing more from street rumors, truly saying he thoroughly understands the grudges and old animosities between ’Blood Shadow Temple’, the Four Families and Three Sects, and Beast King City, who believes is who’s foolish.

In the ’North Mansion Stone Chamber’—

"Blood Shadow Temple?"

Ding Xiang and Lu Yuru were listening, exchanging glances, both feeling curious.

Ding Xiang suggested, "Since we’re here, why not take the opportunity to visit this ’Blood Shadow Temple’?"

Lu Yuru also wanted to see: "Brother Yan caused quite a stir in Nanxiong City a few days ago, the Third-Rank Divine General hates you to the bone, if they can’t find you, they might just have placed a bounty in the ’Blood Shadow Temple’."

The two spoke loudly in the ’North Mansion’, others couldn’t hear, only Yan Chuan could hear.

Yan Chuan went with the flow, he too was curious about the organizational charter of the ’Blood Shadow Temple’, which integrates intelligence, bounties, and assassinations: "Bai Yang, where is the Blood Shadow Temple?"

"Blood Shadow Temple—" Bai Yang raised his head, stood on tiptoe and glanced, pointing for Yan Chuan: "There! Right over there!"

Yan Chuan, transformed into his 1.9-meter height, looked in the direction Bai Yang pointed—

The grand hall rose above!

Large red lanterns hanging high!

The plaque above the door bears two large characters—

"Blood Shadow Temple!"

...

Compared to other shops in Golden Talisman City bustling with clouds of customers, the ’Blood Shadow Temple’ was completely quiet, nestled over ten steps back from the street, uniquely occupying an area equivalent to seven or eight ordinary storefronts, built into a grand hall, Yan Chuan had just entered when someone came to greet him—

"I am Mo Yuan, the Iron Token receptionist at the Blood Shadow Temple. Is this your first time at the Blood Shadow Temple, sir?" Mo Yuan approached, as the supervisor behind transmitted telepathic identification, ’Blood Shadow Temple·Blood Shadow Treasure’, identifying the visitor as Innate Second Layer, is an Innate Divine General!

"First time." Yan Chuan looked towards Mo Yuan: "What services does the Blood Shadow Temple offer?"

Mo Yuan smiled and said, "To answer sir, the Blood Shadow Temple segments its services into three categories. The first is intelligence; be it figures, forces, treasures, or events, the Blood Shadow Temple almost always has records. Even if the Blood Shadow Temple doesn’t have it, as long as the client can pay the corresponding price, the Blood Shadow Temple will dispatch relevant personnel for detailed investigation."

Gathering intelligence is no easy task!

Even if it’s just within the Hunxi Territory, countless events occur every day, and the Blood Shadow Temple is not omniscient, often having intelligence not yet mastered.

However, the Blood Shadow Temple has many experts skilled at intelligence gathering, even if the client doesn’t receive the desired intelligence immediately, if they state their request at the time and offer sufficient rewards, they often achieve their aims afterward.

This is the ’intelligence business’ of the Blood Shadow Temple.

"The second is bounties." Mo Yuan led Yan Chuan to sit down, offered tea, and then continued to introduce the second business: "As the name implies, whether sir wants to scout intelligence, collect resources, find people, or even, kill, you can issue a bounty in the Blood Shadow Temple to attract experts to do the job for you."

The bounty business is more aligned with the ’bounty’ line of the thirteen industries within the Four Families and Three Sects but does not concern themselves with murder and arson business, only accepting what law permits.

The ’Blood Shadow Temple’s bounty leans more towards ’killing’!

"To have bounty tasks naturally requires completing the tasks, the third business of ’Blood Shadow Temple’ is recruiting and training ’Blood Drop Killers’ and ’Shadow Assassins’. Anyone can become a ’Shadow Assassin’, even ordinary people who haven’t broken the limit can receive the ’One-Pattern Rotten Wood Order’ in our Blood Shadow Temple, limit-breaking level can receive ’One-Pattern Withered Wood Order’, followed in order by ’Green Wood Order’, ’Iron Token’, ’Copper Token’, ’Silver Order’, ’Gold Order’, each divided into three patterns, Innate Divine Generals start with ’One-Pattern Iron Token Shadow Assassin’, eligible for ’Iron Order Level’ and below tasks. ’Blood Drop Killers’ are entirely affiliated with the Blood Shadow Temple, trained by the Blood Shadow Temple, able to request aid in danger while on missions outside, enjoying many benefits and favorable treatment."
