Gate of Immortality

Chapter 149: Killing Guo Chun (1)

" Yang Shi, Do you know how valuable spirit stones are?" Yanyu frowned. " I admit that this bow is excellent, but, what makes you think that I won't take the spirit stones?" She asked. " Two reasons." Yang Shi said calmly. " If you are following someone like Old Ghost, then you lack anything but resources." Yang Shi chuckled. Hey, You are following an Origin Core realm cultivator. And judging from your identity, aren't you supposed to be a hidden member of some top brass god tier sect? Yang was screaming inside his heart. Why are you whining over two spirit stones?

" Ahem, and the second thing, Pairing with this bow, I have also some special arrows." Saying that, Yang Shi produced two Spirit slaying arrows. He was intending to make three, but the first one got destroyed. Yanyu's brow raised as she assessed the arrows. " Not bad, These are indeed the perfect arrows for this bow." She nodded. Old Ghost was already smiling at Yang Shi's reasonings. " Fine, you will get two spirit stones, but everything else will be ours." Old Ghost stated. " Fine by me." Yang Shi agreed hurriedly.

" Grandpa!" Yanyu shouted. " Yanyu, you don't need to worry." Old Ghost stopped her. She sighed but didn't say much. " Alright, so, When are we leaving?" Yang Shi asked in an excited tone. " Right now," Yanyu said and turned to leave. Her body turned blur as she disappeared into the darkness. " Hey! Wait for me!" Not underestimating her agility technique, Yang Shi directly activated the Starlight Burst. But Yang Shi was surprised to find that his speed was still slower than her. " Damn, I need to reach the minor completions stage of Starlight Burst." He thought inwardly.

Shen Yanyu's movement technique was very strange. One can see faint white smoke coming from her legs, which seems to increase her speed. " Whatever her technique is, she sure has mastered it deeply." Yang Shi guess. After some while, they reached wilderness. But there was a huge villa guarded by numerous guards. All of them have reached the Primordial Spirit realm. " So this is the stronghold of Crimson Wolf Gang," Yang Shi thought. " Oh, Brother Shadow and Miss has already arrived." Laughter startled Yang Shi. He saw Lu Xiao coming next to them.

" I never thought Brother Shadow is also coming." Lu Xiao said. " Well, I happened to be free, so I came along with Miss Yannyu." Yang Shi said. He was still wearing his bronze demonic mask. " Anyway, I have scouted and it seems there are more than 50 guards in the manor. Aside from Guo Chun, There are two more people we should be wary of." Lu Xiao said with a serious tone.

" Hmm, Miss Yanyu is better in archery, so she will be our force in dark. If there are any anomalies, she can also help us. Then You and I will be the main attacking force." Yang Shi rubbed his chin as he said. " I was also thinking the same." Lu Xiao nodded. " As I can see, Lu Xiao should go from the north and you should go from west. The large hall in middle where the cultivators are most. The south western room is Guo Chun's. Thats the most possible location where Guo Chun might be." Yanyu said. " Since everything is settled, Let's go." The trio nodded as they ran to different directions.

Yang Shi grabbed his sword hilt as he walked cautiously. He activated his Celestial View as he looked into the building. " Heh, I feel I am playing Assassin's creed." He chuckled inwardly as he leaped to the wall. Moving carefully, he bypassed the guards one by one. " No, It would be troublesome. Guess, I have to use the traditional way." Yang Shi smacked his lips. He looked around and lurked in the darkness. Then he saw two guards passing by. " Yawn, I wonder why lord has tightened the security?" The first guard grumbled. " I don't know. But recently, he got a feud with White Deer merchant group, so he might be taking precautions." The second guard replied.

" Yes-. Wait! Who is there?" The guards are talking but suddenly they became alerted after noticing a silhouette. " Halt! Who are you?" The guards drew their weapons as they pointed at it.  " Oh, Uhh, I am new here. Can you show me the way?" The unknown person said awkwardly. " Huh? What do you mea-" Before they could understand, a silver light flashed in the darkness. " ENEMY-" before they could shout, a sword slash separated their heads from their bodies.

Yang Shi appeared as he stole one of the guard's uniforms. " Thankfully, it's not much spoiled by blood." Yang Shi muttered. " As for the bodies, I have to yeet it away. After a while, It can be used to create a commotion." He chuckled as he threw them from the walls." I have to hurry now." Yang Shi adjusted his helmet as he went to the main hall. He already applied Mudcloud fungus to disguise himself as he looked back in Earth. After looking out of any suspicious movement, Yang Shi went to the main hall. It was bustling with many people. One has to go through the main hall in order to reach Guo Chun's room.

Yang Shi secretly stood on a corner and used his vision to observe the people's strength. " Hmm? Wait, So that's Guo Chun's subordinate. Not bad, his strength is at the seventh stage. Hmm, There are two of them here." Yang Shi thought. He lowered his head as he went forward. There are quite a number of people there, So Yang Shi didn't want to make a ruckus here. The rule of assassination is to kill without letting even the wind know. Yang Shi was trying to sneak away when suddenly someone shouted. " Hey! You. Stop there." Yang Shi halted as he saw a person was shouting at him. He also wore the guard's cloth but his helmet was different.

" Reporting Sir! I am Lui Yang from the third group!" Yang Shi shouted as he saluted. The captain got surprised as he nodded. Honestly,he had never seen him before, but looking at Yang Shi's response, he nodded. " Why are you here?" the captain asked sternly. " I saw some suspicious movement near western wall, so I came to report". Yang Shi said. " Suspicious movement?" The captain got startled. " Yes, If you can. Please come with me." Yang Shi said. He didn't want to make the captain sus him.

" Yes! Let's go!" The captain nodded. Yang Shi was going along with him when suddenly, a commotion sounded. " Someone intruded in easter wall!" Someone shouted. " Intruded? " People became shocked. " Well, a young man came and demanded to meet the Lord." The servant said awkwardly. " Really?" Let's see." One of the Guo Chun's subordinate said as went with the guard. Yang Shi felt it might Lu Xiao's ploy, he also wanted to take advantage.

" Captain! You should also go with them. I feel something isn't right. I will inform master Zhu about the anomaly." Yang Shi suddenly said. " Master Zhu? Are you sure?" The captain's eyes narrowed. " Yes!" Yang Shi nodded. " Fine, Master is in upstairs." The captain nodded. Yang  Shi saluted again as he went t ahead. " Wait a minute!" The captain suddenly shouted back. " Yang Shi stopped as his heartbeat became a little faster. " Did I messed up things?" " You are going in the wrong way. Go there. That's Lord Guo's room." The captain said sternly.

" My bad!" Yang Shi created his head as he changed his direction. The captain nodded as he went. " Hmm, I guess, I have to finish that Zhu guy first.  It will be very hard to deal with Guo Chun alone." Yang Shi thought as went to Master Zhao's room.

He stood outside of the room, " Master Zhu, This servant has some reports." He shouted. " Hmm? is it? Come in." An aged voice sounded. " Yang Shi grabbed his sword hilt as he entered the room. Without wasting time, he activated his Celestial View and unleashed Fleeting Light.

" What!" The surname Zhu got started as he got blasted back. " Yang Shi didn't hesitate to launch another killing blow. He won't stand to see that man counter attacking him. Thankfully, these walls are thick enough to isolate noise. A bloodied figure fell down. " One down, one to go." Yang Shi muttered.
