"A core disciple at the peak of Grandmaster level who is rarely rivaled, and two elders at the middle stage of Grandmaster level who are of average strength."
Feeling the information coming from the soul jade slip, Emperor Jiu, who was practicing in the Netherworld Palace, suddenly opened his eyes.
"Lu Ling, quickly help me check which of the subordinate forces of Tianji Valley has a mid-stage Grandmaster warrior."
The soul consciousness moved slightly, and a message immediately entered Lu Ling's soul consciousness.
Taihang Mountain Stronghold.
Liu Mang lay on the bed, staring at the beams in the room with his eyes fixed on it.
Mo Tianji died in battle in Tianwu City, and it is unknown whether the sect leader successfully took control of Tianji Valley.
"Liu Mang?"
Just as Liu Mang was lost in thought, a strange voice sounded in the house.
"who?!!"
Hearing this unfamiliar voice, Liu Mang suddenly turned over and grabbed the Nine-Curve Ring Knife beside the bed.
"Holy Soul Technique."
A sword finger emerged from the void and pointed directly at Liu Mang's eyebrows.
"My life is over!"
Feeling the terrifying aura coming from the sword's owner, Liu Mang sighed in his heart and closed his eyes.
"Huh? What's going on?"
When the sword finger reached the center of his eyebrows, Liu Mang suddenly became confused. He did not feel any fluctuation of spiritual power on the sword finger.
"Seed soul."
The power of the Holy Soul surged, and a Holy Soul seed immediately flowed into Liu Mang's soul along the sword finger of Emperor Jiu.
"Liu Mang, I meet the master."
With his eyes open, Liu Mang lowered his head without hesitation, clasped his fists, and knelt on one knee.
His eyes were now full of respect.
"In the Qingxin Temple in Ning'an City, there are three core figures of the Zhenwu Taoist Temple. They have the secret manual of the Yantian Sword Technique from the Tianji Valley."
"You must leave for Ning'an City immediately and find an opportunity for me to intercept and kill them."
With a wave of his hand, he used his true energy to condense the appearance of Zhang Wuji and the other two, and then Emperor Jiu gave Liu Mang the order to kill Zhang Wuji and the other two.
"I obey your orders!"
......
Qingxin Temple, Yunshui Pavilion.
Zhang Wuji slowly opened his eyes, got down from the bed, opened the window and looked at the flowers in the yard that were being bathed in the morning sun.
"I still have too little combat experience. With my strength, I can definitely defeat him without any harm, or even kill him."
Reaching out and touching the wound on his waist that had recovered as before, Zhang Wuji sighed silently in his heart.
When normal warriors fight, they often launch tentative attacks first in order to judge and understand the opponent's strength.
But the leader of the Black Armor Army acted contrary to his usual behavior and chose to exchange injuries in the first move of the fight. This almost cruel fighting method was completely beyond his expectations, so that he was seriously injured in one move.
"Junior Brother Wuji, have you recovered?"
A voice with a hint of surprise sounded, and Taoist Qingyuan, dressed in a green Taoist robe, appeared in Zhang Wuji's sight.
"Um."
Nodding absentmindedly to Taoist Qingyuan, Zhang Wuji turned his head again to look at the flowers in the courtyard, his eyes lost in thought.
"Junior Brother Wuji, are you... okay?"
Zhang Wuji's wandering eyes made Taoist Qingyuan feel panicked.
If something happened to Zhang Wuji in Qingxin Temple, he, as the abbot of Qingxin Temple, would definitely be held responsible.
"I'm fine. Where are Elder Mingxin and the others?"
Hearing the worried voice of Taoist Qingyuan, Zhang Wuji withdrew his thoughts and asked about the movements of Mingxin and Mingde.
"Elder Mingxin and Elder Mingde have been practicing martial arts in their retreat room these days. Do you need me to send someone to notify them?"
Seeing that Zhang Wuji was fine, Taoist Qingyuan breathed a sigh of relief and answered him carefully.
"No need, just send someone to notify me when they get out of customs."
After saying this, Zhang Wuji didn't wait for Taoist Qingyuan to answer. He reached out to close the window and sat cross-legged on the bed.
Zhang Wuji knew without hesitation the reason why Mingxin and Mingde were in seclusion.
In his opinion, the secret book was just a burden.
Zhenwu Taoist Temple has been passed down for many years, and its martial arts foundation is far superior to that of Tianji Valley.
He really didn't think there was anything good about practicing the Yantian Sword Technique, which everyone in Tianji Valley could practice.
Outside Qingxin Temple, a middle-aged drunk man in black clothes leaned lazily against the wall with his eyes slightly closed.
He yawned from time to time, as if he would fall asleep at any moment.
Three days, three whole days.
From the time he received the order to the time he sneaked into Ning'an City, he had been staying around this wall for a full three days.
During these three days, he had been monitoring the movements in Qingxin Temple, waiting for the boss's target to appear.
"Oh, I don't know when this bird's life will end."
Looking up at the quiet Qingxin Temple, the middle-aged drunk sighed dejectedly in his heart.
If I had known it was such a ridiculous mission, I would never have tried to snatch it even if I died.
"The target has appeared?!!"
Just as the middle-aged drunk was lamenting his bad luck, the door of Qingxin Temple suddenly opened and a group of people slowly walked out.
"Junior Brother Wuji, two elders, please take care."
Waving to the three people who were gradually walking away, Taoist Qingyuan breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
These three uncles finally left.
"Boss, the target is heading towards the south city gate."
In Ning'an City, in an inconspicuous tavern, a middle-aged drunk man was half-kneeling on the ground, reporting the movements of Zhang Wuji and the other two to the people in front of him.
"very good."
A cold light flashed in his eyes, and Liu Mang stood up without hesitation and rushed towards the south city gate.
Ning'an City, suburbs.
