"Are you a big cabbage in the Tianzun realm? We can have as much as we want? We will not send people there again, and we will not cooperate with your Xiahou family again in the future. This matter ends here!" said the grim-faced man.
When Xia Houran heard this, he frowned deeply, "Sir, are you not ready to complete the mission?"
The grim-faced man shook his head, "It's not that I don't want to, it's that I'm powerless!"
Nine Tianzun-level killers were lost at once!
As he said, the Tianzun realm is not a big deal. Zhuihun is now severely injured and no longer has the ability to assassinate Qi Yuetian.
"Then please return my Xiahou family's reward!" Xia Houran said solemnly as he looked at the man with a grimace.
The grim-faced man chuckled, "We lost nine Tianzun-level people for your mission. Do you want to get your reward back from me?"
"No matter how heavy your losses are, it is a fact that the mission has not been completed! Since the mission has not been completed, what reason is there for not returning my reward?" Xia Houran said with a solemn face.
The grim-faced man nodded, "Elder Xiahou is right, but we haven't seen the reward, so how can we return it?"
Xia Houran squinted his eyes and stared at the grim-faced man, "Are you planning to act rogue?"
"Why did Elder Xiahou say this? We haven't received your reward in the first place, so why are we lying?" The grim-faced man said with a smile.
Xia Houran took a deep breath and suppressed the anger in his heart, "The reward was given to your people on your territory, and now it is lost in your hands, and you have not fulfilled your obligations, shouldn't you return it? "
"It's empty talk. Where's the evidence? How do you prove that you handed over the reward to our people?" The grim-faced man said calmly.
evidence?
At this moment, Xia Houran wanted to vomit blood!
If I had known this earlier, I should have asked that woman to sign a written statement!
He never expected that the dignified soul-chasing organization would act rogue and break their promises.
"Are you sure you want to act like this?" Xia Houran glared at the grim-faced man.
The grim-faced man chuckled, "Elder Xiahou, we have done our best. Although we did not receive your reward at that time, out of humanitarianism, we still sent people to assassinate, but we lost nine Tianzun-level people! Elder Xiahou, we have to No, if you pay me another sum, it won’t be much, just one trillion!”
Xia Houran looked at the grim-faced man in disbelief. He didn't expect these people to be so shameless. Not only did they not return the reward, but now they actually wanted to blackmail them!
Thinking of this, the fire in Xia Houran's heart could no longer be suppressed. He smashed the table in front of him into powder with one palm and glared at the grim-faced man, "You guys are going too far!"
But the man with a grimace stretched out a finger and said, "The table is worth 10 billion high-quality crystal stones. Elder Xiahou, please pay for it!"
"Why don't you go and grab it?" Xia Houran roared at the grim-faced man.
"If Elder Xiahou continues to make such unreasonable troubles, don't blame me for being rude!" The grim-faced man said calmly.
Xia Houran stood there for a long time without saying anything. After he calmed down, he looked at the grim-faced man and said, "Aren't you afraid that if you act like this, it will spread and damage your reputation? Who will dare to do business with your organization again?"
"Are you threatening me? I advise your Xiahou family not to spread rumors outside, otherwise don't blame us for destroying your Xiahou family!" The man with a grimace said solemnly.
Xia Houran snorted coldly and was about to walk out, but heard the man with a grimace say: "The table has not been compensated yet!"
Xia Houran paused, turned his head and glanced at the grim-faced man, threw a card on a chair, and rushed out the door.
At this moment, he was quite angry!
This time, the Xiahou family's money was really wasted.
As for the grim-faced man's statement that they sent nine Heavenly Masters to assassinate Qi Yuetian, but none of them returned the favor, he didn't believe it at all!
He felt that this killer organization must have taken the money and did nothing, and never sent anyone to Xuanjian Sect at all.
If the Xuanjian Sect really had this ability, they would have destroyed the Xiahou Family and the Xingyue Sect long ago. How could they be allowed to act like this?
However, it was true that Qi Yuetian destroyed the Sima family, but why he did not take action against the Xiahou family and the Xingyue Sect made Xia Houran puzzled.
Finally, he thought of a possibility. Could it be that Qi Yuetian was so seriously injured after destroying the Sima family that he had been injured to the core, and now he didn't have much fighting power at all?
Xia Houran decided to go back and find out what was going on.
Under the leadership of the masked man, after leaving the contact point of the killer organization, Xia Houran directly drove a small spaceship towards Siwo State.
After Xia Houran left, the grim-faced man stood in the room, hands behind his back, looking outside in silence.
Just then, a woman wearing a fox mask appeared next to Ghostface.
The woman in the fox mask and the man with the ghost face stood side by side, staring outside, and whispered: "How? Maybe you can see some clues?"
The man with a grimace shook his head, "I can't tell, but I don't think the Xiahou family did this, because they don't have the ability!"
"Not necessarily. All of us have underestimated the Xuanjian Sect. Who knows if we have underestimated the Xiahou family?" said the woman in the fox mask.
The grim-faced man nodded, "Yes, this matter must be investigated clearly! This time, we lost both my wife and our troops!"
"What does it mean now?" the woman in the fox mask asked.
"Just wait and see what happens, and don't accept any missions related to Xuanjian Sect for the time being!" The grim-faced man said softly.
The woman in the fox mask turned to look at Ghost Face, "Isn't the higher ups preparing for revenge?"
The grim-faced man shook his head, "I don't know, but I guess there aren't many people in the Tianzun realm left in the organization, and they may be more than willing to support the Xuanjian Sect!"
"What if the Xuanjian Sect comes back to cause trouble for us?" the woman in the fox mask asked.
The grim-faced man sighed, "Then we can only abandon this contact point and develop it again in secret!"
The woman in the fox mask said softly: "I didn't expect that one day we chasing souls would face such a dilemma!"
"Indeed, no one expected that the Xuanjian Sect, which is not even a first-rate force in the entire Tianwu Continent, would actually have such a foundation!" The grim-faced man nodded slightly.
...
One day later, Xia Houran returned to Xiahou's home in Xiwo Prefecture.
Xia Houran told Xia Houyuan the whole story, and Xia Houyuan was so angry that he smashed the table in front of him to pieces, his face was terrifyingly gloomy.
But they had no choice but to suffer this loss. After all, the killer organization Chaihun had been standing in Tianwu Continent longer than their Xiahou family.
No one knows where the headquarters of this soul-chasing organization is, and no one knows how strong it really is.
Regarding soul chasing, everything is a mystery, and not knowing is the scariest thing.
Maybe Tingfenglou knew, but no one asked.
Not to mention how expensive the price will be, so what if you find out?
No one wants to take the initiative to provoke a killer organization, because there are a group of desperadoes, and they are desperadoes with powerful means.
Xia Houyuan left Xiahou's house that day and took the teleportation array directly to Xingyue Gate.
When Xia Houyuan told Li Shang what had happened, Li Shang's first reaction was disbelief.
At this time, Li Shangdu was a little suspicious, wondering whether the Xiahou family had swallowed up part of the reward given by the Xingyue Sect, but instead of hiring an assassin, they poured dirty water on the assassin organization.
After all, the Xingyue Sect didn't have the guts to ask Zhuihun whether this matter was true or not.
Although Li Shang was suspicious of the Xiahou family, he didn't say anything on the surface. But from then on, he had to be more wary of the Xiahou family. After all, the common enemy of the two families was the Xuanjian Sect, not the civil strife that had just formed the alliance. The two families fell apart.
The Xingyue Sect only contributed money, but it was the Xiahou family who was responsible for liaising with the killer organization.
The Xiahou family is now both helpful and unpleasant!
Xia Houyuan, however, had no idea about this.
How would he feel if he knew that the Xiahou family now lost both his wife and soldiers, and was no longer human inside and out?
Then, Xia Houyuan put forward Xia Houran's opinion to Li Shang. He thought Qi Yuetian was seriously injured in the battle with the Sima family, so much so that he was seriously injured. Now he actually doesn't have much fighting power left. .
Li Shang's eyes lit up regarding this view put forward by the Xiahou family. At least he had never thought about it in this aspect.
He felt that it was not impossible. After all, the Sima family was not destroyed by anyone who wanted to. The overall strength of the Sima family was slightly stronger than that of the Xingyue Sect.
As a result, the two of them decided to use various methods to find out about the situation of Xuanjian Sect and Qi Yuetian.
If this is the case, the two of them are ready to work together to take the opportunity to directly destroy the Xuanjian Sect, so as to avoid long nights and endless dreams.
The matter of inquiring about the situation of Xuanjian Sect fell on Xingyue Sect. After all, Xingyue Sect is the real big brother of Beihuang State. It is familiar with everything in Beihuang State. It is better to do things than the Xiahou family, who has crossed the river. It's easier.
Just as the two families were quietly exploring the truth about the Xuanjian Sect, a piece of news shocked the entire Tianwu Continent.
A secret realm appeared in Shenying Ridge, located in the central part of the Northern Wasteland.
This news was like having wings. In less than a day, it spread throughout the Tianwu Continent, and all well-informed forces had already learned about it.
And those forces sent people to investigate one after another, all trying to get ahead of others and enter the secret realm to see if they could get any opportunities.
In just two days, the entire Shenying Ridge was overcrowded, but no one was able to enter because the entrance to the suspected secret realm was guarded by a large formation.
Everyone worked together to forcefully break it open, but found that it could not be broken open, and once it was broken open with force, the secret realm might collapse.
Therefore, all the forces discussed it and decided to temporarily cooperate and summon the formation masters from the entire Tianwu Continent to break the formation.
Three days later, the formation was finally removed, but when the strong men were about to rush in, they were all blown away.
There are not only formations in this secret realm, but also laws that restrict the entry of those who are too strong.
