Why aren’t there Supreme Saints on the Bounty Rankings?
Zhang Ruochen asked.
Ji Fanxin replied,
Without hundreds of millions of Saint Stones, one is not even qualified to order the assassination of a Supreme Saint. Even for ancient dynasties, that would be financially difficult. Moreover, even if there is really such a bounty ranking, it would not be something that we could easily see at our level.

At this moment, a thin lady dressed in black carried a metallic plate and walked to Zhang Ruochen and Ji Fanxin.
On the plate, there was a thick stack of paper and bronze pens.
Life and Death Runes!
Every Rune would indicate an order to kill someone.
Ji Fanxin stretched out her two fingers and picked up a piece of the rune paper, and started writing.
After a short while, she gracefully put the pen down, and threw the rune towards the Life and Death Cliff.
Boom!
The rune paper exploded while near the cliff, and turned into a rain of light.
Following this, a name appeared on the cliff – Liancheng Baili.
Next to the name, there was a description:
Liancheng Baili, a member of the Heavenly Assassination Organization with a cultivation level of Eight-step Saint King. He is ranked 84 on the Killer Heavenly King ranking, and has completed 14595 out of 14600 missions.
Liancheng Baili has a total of 3 Death Emissaries.
The first is….

The description was detailed, and included even the Saint Weapons that Liancheng Baili used, the cultivation techniques he practiced, and the Saint Spells he had mastered.
After seeing these descriptions, Zhang Ruochen’s eyes lit up, and he mumbled to himself,
Seems like that day he was the one who helped Shang Ziyan to attack me. Being able to enter the rankings of Killer Heavenly Kings, he isn’t a simple character.

Not only that, but the person who tried to assassinate Pill Spirit King was actually Liancheng Baili’s third Death Emissary.
Seemed like Ji Fanxin had already checked these thoroughly before ordering this assassination.
The bounty she gave was a hundred million Saint Stones.
Before Ji Fanxin ordered, there were already two orders under his name, for bounties of thirty-five million and fifty million respectively. Evidently there were others who wanted him dead.
With that, Liancheng Baili’s life was already worth one hundred and eighty-five million Saint Stones, and his ranking on the Bounty Ranking rose to 67.
Such a price was rather attractive, and many Nine-step Saint King would be tempted to kill him.

To put a bounty of one hundred million, who is she?


To be able to name such a price, she must be from a big faction. It would be better that we stay away.


Below the Life and Death Cliff, many gazes were fixed on Ji Fanxin. Their gazes were all different. Some were that of doubt, some were cautious, and some were deep in thought.
Although Ji Fanxin had cautioned Zhang Ruochen to stay low, what she had done was not staying low either.
Ji Fanxin looked at Zhang Ruochen, and lightly smiled.
It’s your turn! Just write your target on the Life and Death Rune along with the price.

After throwing the rune out, the information will be recorded and reflected on all other Life and Death Cliffs of the God of Death Palace in other regions as well.

Zhang Ruochen picked up a Life and Death Rune on the plate and started writing.
Boom!
As the rune exploded, there was a new name that appeared on the Bounty Ranking.
Tenth on the Bounty Ranking, Space Divine Pavilion Leader, Gong Ziyan. Bounty: Three hundred million.
Below the usually quiet Life and Death Cliff, that new name raised havoc.

Three hundred million! If I had so many Saint Stones, I could even raise an army to fight for a city, and establish a country!


Gong Ziyan has had good connections all along. Not only that, but many factions are in need of his help. Who would put such a high bounty on his name?


Gong Ziyan must have really screwed up. Surely he has offended a super big faction.

Countless eyes swept onto Zhang Ruochen.
Some people even used their spiritual powers to scan him, hoping to see his face that was hidden under disguise.
Some others’ gazes were serious, and if this wasn’t in the territory of the God of Death Palace, they would have already attacked Zhang Ruochen.
That would be no surprise. Given the number of people here, surely some of them would be Gong Ziyan’s friends, and perhaps even Gong Ziyan himself was here.
Zhang Ruochen did not seem affected, and picked up another Life and Death Rune. He started writing again.
Boom!
The rune paper flew out, and one more name appeared on the Bounty Ranking.
Bounty Ranking, number 10, Soul Field Leader, Lian Xi. Bounty: Three Hundred Million.
Shocking!
This time, the crowd truly turned boisterous, and even more people’s gazes turned cold as they glared at Zhang Ruochen.

That is so illogical! Someone wants Fairy Lian Xi dead? If people knew about this, all of Heaven Field would be shocked.


Fairy Lian Xi is so beautiful, even the most cold-blooded assassin would probably not want to attack her.


If you dare, show me your real appearance. You’ve got to pass through me if you want to kill Fairy Lian Xi.

A man dressed in yellow robes jumped out. Evidently, he was one of the admirers of Fairy Lian Xi. He dashed straight at Zhang Ruochen, with a silvery-white glow on his fists.
Yet, when he was about 10 steps away from Zhang Ruochen, a core member of the God of Death Palace suddenly appeared.
This assassin seemed a little unique. On the black robe that he wore, there was a six-winged Wyvern. The killing aura he emitted seemed to have made the surrounding temperature suddenly drop.
Just that killing aura was enough to stop that yellow-robed man dead in his tracks.

This is the God of Death Palace. Whoever dares to ignore our rules, I, Qin Kai, will send him off. Free of Charge,
the man in black said calmly.
The yellow-robed man’s face turned white as a sheet of paper, and with his trembling lips, he uttered,
Qin… Kai, Killer Heavenly King Ranking 21st, Qin Kai….

At that moment, that black-robed man became the absolute center of attention.
Everyone, especially those near to him, felt chills running down their spines.
Even Zhang Ruochen seemed to be a little surprised. One must understand, even Liancheng Baili, such a powerful foe, was only 84th on the ranking.
On the Killer Heavenly King rankings, they would only record a hundred Saint King level assassins. Every one of them was extremely powerful, and the higher their ranking, the more incredible they were.
After stopping that yellow-robed man, Qin Kai’s figure disappeared. It was as though he had melted into thin air.

He’s so good… With my cultivation now, I could not even see how he left,
Zhang Ruochen whispered.
Ji Fanxin said,
Now you know that there are always people better than you? Given your current cultivation, there are many people below Supreme Saint that could easily defeat you. Whoever you met in the Truth Heavenly Domain are only the younger generation. The older generation of Saint Kings is much more deadly than them.

Zhang Ruochen shrugged. Those people were completely irrelevant. He had obtained the single strand of Saint Monk Xumi’s beard anyway, and his cultivation would drastically improve soon.
When his cultivation increased by two or three levels, how many under the level of Supreme Saint could suppress him?
Immediately after, Zhang Ruochen stretched out his hand, and picked up another Life and Death Rune from the plate.
Ji Fanxin’s eyes were wide open, and she asked,
You are still going to order more?

Even a single sum of a hundred million was already a huge number to world leaders like Ji Fanxin. Yet, Zhang Ruochen had already spent six hundred million with no signs of stopping. How was this not surprising?
Zhang Ruochen smiled.
My Golden Dragon Carriage is surely worth no less than a billion, right?

Just as he said that, he wrote down another name.
With that, one more name appeared on the 10th rank of Bounty Ranking: Divine Blood War Palace Leader, Xun Ya. Bounty: Three hundred million Saint Stones.
Ignoring the hostile gazes, Zhang Ruochen continued writing the fourth name.
Boom!
The rune paper once again crashed into the cliff and turned into a rain of light.
Following which, on the 7th place of the Bounty Ranking, Shang Ziyan’s name appeared with a bounty of five hundred million.
Zhang Ruochen hesitated, and did not continue to write more names. He sighed.
Bai Su, Second Senior Brother Apprentice, Third Senior Brother Apprentice, Fifth Senior Sister Apprentice… Their deaths had always been an ache in Zhang Ruochen’s heart.
Zhang Ruochen had considered doing the same, and ordering the deaths of Shang Ziyan’s family and friends.
However….
When it came to really making the decision, Zhang Ruochen did not do it. He could not bear to carry out such a massacre against the innocent.
Shang Ziyan’s family and friends might not all be evil, and not all of them were Zhang Ruochen’s enemies. Perhaps many of them were kind-hearted people.

What are you thinking about?
Ji Fanxin asked.

Nothing.

Zhang Ruochen tightly gripped the pen in his hand, and slowly put it down.
This is a pen that kills, I must use it carefully.
Ji Fanxin said,
We must leave quickly. The four people you have ordered killed all belong to the Heavens Field Faction. There must be many of their people here.


Let’s go!

Just as Zhang Ruochen turned around, a black-robed assassin appeared before them.
Given the inscriptions on his sleeves and collar, he must be a Killer Heavenly King.
With his sharp voice, he informed them,
You two customers, please don’t leave yet. Elder Qi has just informed me to tell you two to meet him.

Zhang Ruochen felt a light killing aura coming from this person, and was on alert as he asked,
Why must we meet him?


You have made orders, so you must go to him to make down-payment.
The black-robed figure’s killing aura disappeared, and was instead replaced by a smile.
