Chapter 488, Recruiting
At the Yanfeng Guild Hall, the unfamiliar Divine Lord "Zhanfeng," who had just arrived yesterday, reappeared, but was led by a servant to a secluded palace far from the main building, where he met the Vice Master of the Yanfeng Guild Hall.
After all—Zhanfeng had just taken on a large number of assassination missions in Gaoyan City yesterday through the Dark Palace Token. Now, only one night later, Yanfeng Guild had confirmed through the bounty cause and effect that over a hundred of these mission targets had died. Moreover, no powerful figures or forces in the entire Gaoyan City had noticed the commotion. This was enough to pique the interest of the deputy guild master.
He wouldn't value an ordinary eternal god unless they had a powerful background, but now he was very interested.
Based on Ye Muxuan's understanding and perception, this smiling deputy master should be an energy being, leaning towards the kind of chaotic lightning. Moreover, Ye Muxuan sensed the aura of three chaotic treasures on him.
It is even richer than Muyun Tree.
His ability to accurately locate the leaders of various factions within the vast city of High Rock stems not only from the intelligence he acquired at the Flamewind Guild, but also from this very sensory ability. Regardless of their faction's leader, those in High Rock City typically carry their secret treasures with them at all times, given that it's the front lines of war. And for an Eternal True God to possess two Chaos Treasures, yet publicly identify as an apothecary—if you're not a spy, then who is?
Therefore, Ye Muxuan went to "visit" those members who possessed numerous treasures that were disproportionate to his status, and basically killed them one by one.
"Lord of the Nightfall, please have a seat." The smiling deputy head of the club looked at Ye Muxuan. With the intelligence capabilities of the Flame Wind Club, they already knew his identity when he accepted the assassination mission under the code name Zhanfeng.
He was merely an Eternal True God, and neither the Flamewind Guild nor even the Vice Guild Master himself cared about him. His sudden desire to meet this Nightfall God was simply out of curiosity.
Ye Muxuan sat opposite him, and the deputy master stood up and poured wine into the glass in front of Ye Muxuan.
"This is a fine wine made from the blood of the God-King level beast, the Myriad Realms Icewind Beast," the deputy curator said with a smile, not in a hurry to hand over the mission to Ye Muxuan. "How about you try this wine?"
Ye Muxuan's expression turned serious as he stared at the wine in his glass, which faintly resembled the illusion of a strange beast roaring to the sky.
Using the blood of a god-king level alien beast as material?
Whether it tastes good or not doesn't matter; given its rarity, he has to taste it to see if it's salty or bland!
He knew about the Myriad Realms Icewind Beast; it had been mentioned in the Broken East River Legacy, the God King of Jin, and the Great Sage Xihe, and that a single scale on its body was a universe. However, he had only heard of the fine wine made from its blood, but had never tasted it.
Ye Muxuan picked up his wine glass, took a sip and savored it. A cool sensation spread throughout his soul, making him feel extremely comfortable.
"This wine has a nourishing effect on the soul. Drinking one cup can enhance one's comprehension for a whole day," the deputy curator said with a smile, looking at Ye Muxuan.
Enhance comprehension?
Ye Muxuan did indeed feel a "cool" and "relaxed" comfort deep within his soul, which even subtly improved the efficiency of his soul's circulation. However, having been consuming the Time-Space Liquid for some time, while he enjoyed this feeling, it wasn't enough to aid his cultivation.
"Indeed, fine wine." Setting down his glass, Ye Muxuan nodded, acknowledging the wine's effects.
Upon hearing this, the deputy curator was slightly taken aback, and his smile, which had been one of complete control, faded somewhat.
Those who can endorse the effects of this fine wine without batting an eye have either tasted it before or have tasted something even better.
Of course, he didn't consider this thing as a cultivation resource. Fine wine is ultimately just a pastime and enjoyment. Only Ye Muxuan, who came from the barren universe sea, would value everything in terms of cultivation.
If it can't be used for cultivation or to enhance strength, what's the difference between it and a piece of trash?
Born into the lineage of the Emperor of the Yanfeng Ancient Kingdom, how could he, as the deputy head of the Yanfeng Guild, lack cultivation resources? He was merely traveling and relaxing, and incidentally taking on the role of deputy head.
"To be able to kill Twilight Cloud Tree so silently, Nightfall God is very strong." The deputy curator's face returned to its smiling expression, and he directly changed the subject, saying, "So Nightfall God is here to collect the bounty, right?"
"Yes." Ye Muxuan replied, and with a wave of his hand, the enormous corpse of Muyun Tree appeared in the palace. Its divine body was completely unharmed, but its consciousness had long been severed. At this moment, it was as if it were asleep, but it had no trace of life.
The deputy curator glanced at the corpse, expressionless, but a sense of dread quietly rose in his heart.
As revealed in the intelligence, all the powerful beings who fell at the hands of the Nightfall God, whether they were weak Void True Gods or Eternal True Gods of the same level, were killed by their consciousness, leaving their divine bodies completely unharmed.
With the methods of the Flame Wind Guild, the time it took Ye Muxuan to travel from Snowfield City to High Rock City was enough to transmit the information he revealed to all the cities with branches throughout the Origin Continent.
As the highest commander on the front line of the battle between the two divine kingdoms, Mu Yunshu was only the leader of these spies, but his will was definitely at the level of the Chaos Ruler. Even so, he was still easily killed by the Night God Lord, and it was by killing his will.
The methods of the Night God were unfamiliar and terrifying.
He has definitely cultivated some kind of secret technique for killing with his will, and it is at least a God-King level inheritance.
A thousand thoughts raced through his mind, but the deputy curator merely glanced at it before saying, "It is indeed the Twilight Cloud Tree. The target is correct. Lord Nightfall can receive the full bounty for the Twilight Cloud Tree."
The bounty on Muyun Tree was second only to Gao Yanzheng in Gaoyan City, with a total bounty of 950,000 Cosmic Sands, which now all belonged to Ye Muxuan.
"The Nightfall God has completed more than one mission, hasn't he?" The deputy curator looked at Ye Muxuan with a smile and said, "The karma here has dissipated from more than just one Twilight Cloud Tree."
"If you see any that look good on the road, just kill them all." Ye Muxuan waved his hand, and hundreds of corpses, large and small, appeared in the hall. They were all different in appearance and race, but the only thing they had in common was that their consciousness had been severed.
The deputy curator stared at the hundreds of corpses, then looked at Ye Muxuan, and the fear deep in his eyes finally turned into solemnity.
There are a total of 77 Void Gods and 42 Eternal Gods here. Among them are four Eternal Gods and thirteen Void Gods. Although they are all familiar to Yanfeng Guild and there is information about them, Yanfeng Guild had not received any information about their entry into Gaoyan City before they saw their corpses!
"The Nightfall God is indeed worthy of his reputation." The deputy curator's gaze shifted from one of the Eternal True Gods to Ye Muxuan, his attitude changing from condescension to apprehension, and now to caution. This corpse had previously belonged to an extremely ancient Eternal True God active within the Food Kingdom's territory, but had fallen into seclusion for a long time. Most of the powerful figures who knew of his existence assumed he was in seclusion preparing to challenge for the Chaos Ruler title, never expecting him to perish in this small High Rock City.
"The total bounty for these targets is 4658500 Cosmic Sands." The deputy curator looked at Ye Muxuan, waved his hand, and a cyan jade bottle appeared in the hall. He then said, "The high-ranking members of the Food Kingdom's spies in Gaoyan City have basically been removed. It seems that Lord Nightfall has quite a few grievances against the Food Kingdom."
In Snowfield City, the Nightfall God made a sudden move, killing only the leader of the city's dark forces. But this time in High Rock City, he wiped out the entire group of Food Kingdom's secret agents in one fell swoop. No one would believe the Nightfall God didn't do it intentionally.
"I had a good friend who died because of some legion-type mechanical treasures," Ye Muxuan said, looking at the deputy curator. "So I have to do something about it."
"Would Lord Nightfall be interested in working at the Flamewind Guild?" Although the Flamewind Guild is backed by the Flamewind Ancient Kingdom, it also recruits members from all over the continent. "I can make the decision; I'll give you a steward position right now."
In each branch of the Flamewind Guild, the two highest-ranking members are the Guild Masters, followed by sixteen Deacons. In High Rock City, a Deacon is considered second only to the two and above millions of others.
Even if the Food Kingdom is able to break through Gaoyan City, and knows that Muyun Tree died at Ye Muxuan's hands, as long as he is still the steward of Yanfeng Hall, even the Lord of Tiankun Kingdom will have to cover his eyes and pretend not to know about this!
Members of the Flamewind Guild treat any "stronger" from outside the ancient kingdom with equal disregard.
