Chapter 521 First in Battle Merit, Assassinating the Witch



"Twelve retinues?" Linda asked in confusion.

"Yes, I have information on the whereabouts of one of the twelve members of the family. The enemy is in the open while we are in the dark, so we are almost certain to win."

This is an enormous achievement, and the rewards from the capital alone include the 'Heavenly Spirit Secret Medicine'.

This is an extremely rare magic potion that can potentially allow someone at the peak of the Saint rank to break through to the Heaven rank.

I believe the Ice Abyss will also bestow rewards.

"How about it? Want to join forces with us and take this honor together?"

Oren laughed.

Linda's eyes flickered, and she took a sip of water to hide her shock.

It seems there's quite a bit of intrigue and backstabbing within the Demon Clan.

The only reason that can be thought of is that Oren has a grudge against that member of the Twelve Families, or that he wants to replace him.

There are only twelve members in the twelve-member household. Only when the current member dies will a new member join the ranks of the twelve-member household.

With Oren's strength, he's more than capable of being one of the Twelve Kin.

"Who is it?" Linda asked.

Oren smiled: "I knew you'd be interested. What strong person wouldn't want to kill the Demon King's army's high-ranking members?"

But don't worry, I'm not arrogant enough to lay a hand on the front row of the Twelve Families.

Through some private channels, I learned that a year later, 'Gluttony' Sirin, the twelfth familiar of the demon race, will appear at 'Fallen Dragon Peak' in the 30th level of the Great Mystic Realm to participate in a high-level gathering in the Dragon's Rest Tomb.

Fortunately, the forces behind me have infiltrated the Dragon's Rest Tomb and can secure three qualifications for me to participate in the gathering without being suspected.

You and I can pretend to be cult members and participate.

To ensure the plan's success, I will only select the strongest among those of the same level.

As soon as Sirin appears, you and I will immediately turn against her and kill this witch!

"You can have the witch's head; I'll only take her belongings. How about it?"

Outside, all was quiet, with the leaves rustling in the wind.

Inside the simple tent, Linda's eyes widened slightly after hearing Oren's words.

He lowered his head again to drink water, a mix of surprise, excitement, and anger welling up inside him. The water he drank felt like a jumbled mess of emotions, leaving him with an exceptionally complex feeling.

Kill the witch, good.

Oren, this demon, doesn't even know that he knows he's a demon. Good!

but

The Demon Clan's twelfth familiar, 'Gluttony' Sirin, isn't she his own sister?!

If he hadn't demonstrated his strength a week ago and caught Oren's attention, Oren might have sought to join forces with someone else.

By a twist of fate, he ended up getting closer to his sister!

Lin Da was worried about not being able to find Lin Xi.

Oren then brought the message to their door.

"Let me think about it."

To agree so readily would seem rather suspicious.

Linda feigned doubt, frowning as she pondered deeply.

Oren expressed his understanding: "This is a serious matter and certainly requires careful consideration. But I know you will eventually agree that top-tier adventurers like you and me are not interested in the heads of the Twelve Familiars."

After saying that, Oren chuckled, picked up his water glass, and took a small sip.

But instead of swallowing it, it evaporated with magic.

Lin Da didn't trust him, but how could he trust Lin Da?

Who knows if there's any poison in it?

Oren's fingers gently kneaded the water glass, seemingly casual and languid, but a hidden killing intent flashed deep in his eyes.

With the death of the witch Sirin, he took over the position of one of the Twelve Kin.

The next one to die will be the human right in front of us!

However, if Linda sincerely surrenders, it would be fine to spare his life.

Oren still admired Linda, and having such a person as a subordinate would be extremely beneficial to his future career advancement.

One minute, three minutes, ten minutes passed.

Linda sat quietly in the chair, her eyes half-closed, as if petrified.

—Beat Oren half to death and force him to reveal all the information.

No, that would only alert them.

He needed Oren to take him to see Lin Xi.

"Luolong Mountain Peak" is located at the deepest part of the Hundred Thousand Mountains and is the core of the 30-level Great Secret Realm. Since it is 30 levels, it means that the demons appearing there have a maximum level of 69 Saint rank.

Linda is currently only level 59, so she can't go to the 30th floor.

But the rally will take place a year later.

There is ample time to improve one's abilities.

Once you advance to the Saint rank, using the trial card will likely grant you Heaven rank strength.

By observing President Angel, one can catch a glimpse of the tip of the iceberg of the Heavenly Staircase.

The level 70's suppression of the level 69 is almost unsolvable.

One super move and the level 69 Saint-ranked warrior is helpless.

No matter how many demons participate in the gathering, Linda can still take Linxi away, and even wipe out the rest of the demons!

The only one we need to be wary of is Oren.

Is this kid telling the truth or lying?

It's best to remain still until the truth is ascertained.

Thinking of this, Linda smiled.

“That suits me perfectly. Killing the Twelve Kin will greatly weaken the Demon King’s army. We adventurers should do just that.”

Oren raised the corners of his mouth and laughed, "That's more like it. You and I are both geniuses with the potential to advance to the legendary level. How can we be afraid of a mere Twelve Kin? A year from now, the two of us will find another powerful figure, and the three of us will attend the gathering. We will definitely cut off the witch's head!"

"Okay, okay!"

Linda readily agreed.

The two chatted back and forth, cursing the witch, creating a harmonious atmosphere.

After taking a sip of water to moisten her throat, Linda changed the subject: "By the way, brothers Oren, I heard that the three of you received a ten-star rating directly from Lord Lengyue without going through any assessment. Why is that?"

Upon hearing this, Mi San and Alexander's expressions changed slightly.

The relationship between Leng Yuegong and them must not be discovered by anyone!
