Volume 2: The Demonic World Chapter 389 Yan Mi
After getting the Zhenjin token, Lin Qianxing took action more than a dozen times and successfully completed the task every time.
No matter how tightly the opponent's guards are, no matter how strong the opponent is, they will die at the hands of Lin Qianxing.
During this process, Lin Qianxing seldom used [Xuanlu] directly. He preferred to experience the assassination process personally again and again.
Therefore, his understanding of [movement] became more and more profound.
Now his cultivation has reached the third level.
But this is not important. If he wants, with the two great Dao fruits, he can easily return to the twelfth level of the Infinite Realm.
He did not directly utilize the Tao fruit during his practice. He needed to understand the entirety of a Tao fruit from the shallow to the deep in order to better master its power.
As the weather gets colder, the number of pedestrians on the streets gradually decreases.
It was snowing heavily.
Lin Qianxing felt a little lonely, but he silently enjoyed this peace and solitude.
As an assassin, this is a necessary process.
The assassins who couldn't stand the loneliness are all dead.
Lin Qianxing was thinking that this seemed to contradict the meaning of the Dao Fruit of [Movement], but after thinking about it carefully, he felt that they were consistent.
Loneliness and bustle, death and rebirth , stillness and movement.
Everything is mutual.
If there is no stillness, where does movement come from?
You need a reference object to know that the object is moving, right?
Looking at the heavy snow, Lin Qianxing suddenly fell into enlightenment.
By the time his epiphany was over, there was one more person in the store.
A wealthy middle-aged man in bright yellow clothes.
"I heard from Han Qiuye that you are a very talented assassin. If I want to kill that person, I have a greater chance of finding you. I didn't quite believe it at first, after all, you are only a third-level cultivator, but now I believe it. You are indeed very talented and you are born to do this job." The middle-aged man smiled and said, "Let me introduce myself. My name is Tang Rui."
Hearing this name, Lin Qianxing's mind immediately emerged with related memories.
The businessman who was known as the richest man in the world was a traveling merchant, but not an ordinary traveling merchant.
But it was Tang Rui, the upper fourth-rank [Divine Merchant].
He possesses a space skill that can carry massive amounts of supplies, and also has a space walking technique that can allow him to travel thousands of miles in an instant.
Because of this, he was rich enough to rival a country, and the income he earned in a year was much more than the tax revenue of a country.
Moreover, with so much wealth, he will not attract the covetousness of others.
It’s not because of his high strength.
As a businessman, he has little direct combat power.
The real reason why he is not coveted is because he has strong abilities to protect his life and make friends.
Just imagine, who can really catch a person who can escape thousands of ?
What's more, he has a lot of powerful friends.
"Who to kill? Where? What's the reward?" Lin Qianxing asked.
"You are really simple and direct." Tang Rui smiled and said, "You may know the person I want to kill, Yan Mi, the owner of Good Luck Casino. After the deed is done, 30% of my wealth will be yours."
Lin Qianxing did know this person. She was a fourth-rank extreme level [Fortune-stealing Gambler] and had come to Lin Qianxing to kill someone before. He was a rich young man who liked to flirt with other women. Yan Mi felt that killing him would dirty her hands, so she asked Lin Qianxing to do it for her.
The reward she gave was strange, it was ten days of romantic luck, because she thought Lin Qianxing was very bored living alone.
Lin Qianxing was curious and took it.
During those ten days, there were always strange female guests who came to the house and inexplicably fell in love with Lin Qianxing.
Unfortunately, Lin Qianxing was not moved at all, and all the peach blossoms were blocked by him.
Because of this, Lin Qianxing has a deep memory of her.
"I picked up." Lin Qianxing said.
"Okay, this is the deposit, you take it first, and I'll pay the rest after the deal is done." Tang Rui took out a purple jade ring and said.
After saying this, he placed the purple jade ring on the table and then disappeared.
Lin Qianxing picked up the jade ring and probed his mind into it, only to see countless gold, silver, and rare treasures lying quietly inside, the number of which could perhaps be piled up into a mountain.
It can be seen that Tang Rui did not lie. He really intended to use 30% of his savings to buy Yan Mi's life.
Lin Qianxing was very curious, why was he willing to pay such a price to kill Yan Mi?
So Lin Qianxing found Yan Mi and asked him in person.
Lin Qianxing came to the Good Luck Casino, which was the largest casino in the entire Daxing Kingdom. It housed gamblers from all over the place, and even people from other countries came here to play.
When Lin Qianxing pushed open the luxuriously decorated door and stepped inside, countless hoarse roars reached his ears.
There is the ecstasy of a great victory and the dejection of a great defeat.
Gambling is like this. The moment you sit at the gambling table, everything is left to fate.
Of course, many times, some people choose to interfere with the outcome of gambling.
So for ordinary people, nine out of ten times they will lose when gambling.
For the monks who develop this path and embark on the path of cultivation, their chances of winning will increase.
Not long after, Lin Qianxing saw Yan Mi, who was wearing a gorgeous red dress and heavy makeup. Her red dress always revealed some of her snow-white skin in key places, which was extremely eye-catching.
She has a graceful figure and beautiful appearance. She is extremely beautiful even without heavy makeup. It only makes her look less beautiful. But she still uses it. She doesn't like showing her true face to others because it would make it easy for people to guess what she is thinking, which is a disadvantage at the gambling table.
At this time, there was a man who was betting with her. The man had already staked his entire fortune. Yan Mi inadvertently changed her sitting posture, revealing her fair skin. The man's eyes were attracted, and the next moment, he had lost everything.
There is no eternal winner at the gambling table, but Yan Mi will try his best to gather all the factors for victory to give himself a greater chance of winning.
The bankrupt man was dragged away by the strong man in the gambling house, and Lin Qianxing sat in the seat he had sat in.
"Why are you here?" Yan Mi was a little surprised when she saw Lin Qianxing, and then said, "Don't tell me first, let me guess, someone bought my life? The price of my life is not low. Who can have such a family fortune and have such a grudge against me? Tang Rui? He really can't afford to lose! Isn't it just winning half of his fortune?"
At the end of her speech, Yan Mi wrinkled her nose in annoyance, which actually made her look a little cute like a little girl.
However, Lin Qianxing remained unmoved.
"You are so boring. I have given you so much luck in love, but you don't even cherish it." Yan Mi said.
Bang~!!
Lin Qianxing placed the Red Blood Dagger on the gambling table.
"You are so impatient. Don't be impatient. How about we make a bet?" Yan Mi stretched out her hand and pressed Lin Qianxing's palm, and suggested: "Let this bet decide my life."
Upon hearing this, Lin Qianxing thought it was an interesting suggestion. Using gambling to decide a gambler's life was indeed a good way to assassinate someone.
"Okay." Lin Qianxing nodded.
"What method?" Yan Mi stood up and took out a pile of gambling tools.
They all have a certain degree of uncertainty and are very similar to the divination device that Lin Qianxing once used.
The gambler is a Taoist official in the infinite web of [Dao Shi], which is also related to fate.
Just as [Healer] and [Assassin] are both Taoist professions under [Movement], they coexist.
Under [Dao Shi], [gamblers] and [fortune tellers] are also quite subtle existences.
They seemed to be on two completely opposite paths, but they ended up in the same place.
Lin Qianxing finally chose the six-sided dice because it looked a bit like a Rubik's Cube, which made Lin Qianxing feel a little bit familiar.
Yan Mi also took a dice and held it in his palm.
"If I win, your life will be mine. If I lose, my life will be yours. How about that?" Yan Mi asked.
Lin Qianxing’s answer was a rolled dice.
whoosh whoosh whoosh~!
The dice kept spinning on the table, creating gusts of breeze.
Seeing this, Yan Mi smiled slightly and threw his own dice.
When the two dice were rolling, Lin Qianxing spoke up. He said, "If you choose to run away, I may not really kill you, but if you stay, I will definitely not let you live."
"Do you think you're sure to win?" Yan Mi asked puzzledly, "And even if you win, can you really kill me?"
"I have never failed." Lin Qianxing replied calmly.
Yan Mi looked at Lin Qianxing's confident expression and couldn't help but sigh, "That's why I don't want to confront you directly. Sima Shu is a Sword Sect with extraordinary combat power. He even had a magic sword on him, but you killed him. I don't have the confidence that I can survive in your hands, but since you chose to gamble with me, your life will be mine from now on.
Little brother, let me tell you something: never compete with others in the area where they are best.
Just like I would never bet with you on murder."
When Yan Mi finished speaking, Lin Qianxing felt that the invisible fortune affected the rotation of the two dice, slowing down the speed of both dice.
Lin Qianxing easily judged that if he continued like this, he would lose .
So, Lin Qianxing also poured his fortune into it.
His luck is not high, but with the blessing of [Movement], it is endless.
So Lin Qianxing's dice started rolling again.
The fortunes of the two people are linked to the two dice, and both want to make themselves win.
Every time Yan Mi gambled with someone, she would take away part of that person's luck. Today, she has nothing else but plenty of luck.
She didn't believe that she would lose to Lin Qianxing here.
However, after a quarter of an hour had passed since the two dice had been rolling, Yan Mi's expression finally changed.
She had a premonition of a future in which she would lose.
Yan Mi washed her face and removed her heavy makeup, revealing her beautiful face. She changed into a black dress in front of Lin Qianxing, and then took out a lot of jewelry and put them on one by one.
She even ordered her subordinates to help buy a coffin.
She did all this very calmly, as if she was not preparing for her own afterlife at all.
Lin Qianxing let the dice spin for a while longer, until the coffin was bought and the interior was arranged, then he stopped the two dice from spinning.
Yan Mi's dice shattered into powder, while Lin Qianxing's dice was a six.
Yan Mi had anticipated this outcome. She lay in the coffin and said, "Don't let it hurt too much, and don't let it leave any wounds. Hurry up, I don't want to be too uncomfortable."
Lin Qianxing took out a dagger, waved it in the air and said, "Yan Mi, your death is coming."
Wow!
The dagger's attack fell on Yan Mi's life, cutting off her possibility of survival. The only thing left was death.
Yan Mi maintained her most beautiful appearance and slept quietly in the coffin.
Lin Qianxing threw the dice into her coffin as a burial object.
He felt a little sad that there was one less interesting person in the world.
