Chapter 328.

Within the wide room, at this moment, Zhou An’s voice, which was like ice, resounded within this room.
Although Assassination Star was already a Peak Ascension Realm expert, at this moment, after hearing Zhou An’s words, he still couldn’t help but feel a chill running through his body.
“If you want to live, then cooperate.”
These words seemed simple, but Assassination Star knew very well in his heart that there were only two paths before him.
Live, or die.
There was no third.
He couldn’t figure out how he could not understand why such a strange thing would appear.
It wasn’t until this moment that he finally realized why, especially after hearing Zhou An’s voice.
It turned out that they had been the fish all along, and the fisherman had already copied the net and was waiting for them there.
Assassination Star began to tremble and his face turned white, “How do you want me to cooperate?”
He had already admitted his fate now.
That’s right, he was a Peak Ascension Realm expert, as well as a renowned figure from the Battle of the Hundred Kingdoms.
It wasn’t too much to say that he was a top expert at that time.
It was during the Hundred Kingdoms Battle that he was also a figure to be reckoned with.
But he was afraid of death.
No matter what time it was, he was afraid of death.
In that era, their group of people, living in the Misty Space, had all done so because they were afraid of death.
Otherwise, they wouldn’t have been able to let the years pass by and live until now.
Because he was afraid of death, he didn’t want to die.
There were only two paths in front of him now.
Either live or die.
He chose to live.
As for those so-called companions ……
Sorry, for him, it was not important at all.
In this world, only if you are alive, you are truly alive.
If you die, everything is empty and there is nothing left.
Seeing that Assassination Star answered so painfully, Zhou An nodded with satisfaction, “I like you people who are painfully happy, I was thinking that if you are not painfully happy, then I will drag you to the dungeon of the Zhen Gui Si, so that you can think it over.”
“But since you answered so simply, then I’ll make everything simpler as well.”
Around them, Eunuch Wei and the others didn’t say a word, but each of them looked straight at Assassination Star with fierce eyes, causing Assassination Star to shiver.
They knew that Zhou An had his plans now, so they patiently watched.
Anyway, now that Assassination Star had been subdued, with so many Peak Ascension Realm experts here, Assassination Star alone couldn’t make any waves, so it would be better to see what Zhou An wanted to do subsequently.
Soon, Zhou An was walking back and forth in the middle of this wide room, seemingly organizing his words.
And as Zhou An walked around, Assassination Star’s heart, too, was like a roller coaster, constantly traveling up and down.
After roughly waiting for nearly half a pillar of incense, in the pale face of Assassination Star, Zhou An slowly spelled out his plan.
“You go back to that space, then tell them how great the outside world is, and how weak the people in the outside world are, then you come out from inside the space.”
When those words were spoken, Assassination Star froze slightly and quickly reacted.
He was, after all, a peak Ascension Realm expert who had lived for an unknown number of years.
To put it in layman’s terms, even if one was a fool, after such a long period of time, one would still be able to become incredibly intelligent.
Time, was something that would allow a person to metamorphose, so in a split second, he thought of the reason why Zhou An was doing this.
Assassination Star looked at Zhou An with an unbelievable gaze, “You want me to be the bait, pretending to be the prosperity and safety of the outside world to trick them all out?”
Zhou An smiled and raised a finger, “You’re smart, I like smart people, so this choice depends on what you do.”
The people present glanced at each other, and all knew what Zhou An was doing with his thoughts.
In fact, to make a very simple analogy, if Assassination Star went back and told everyone that the outside world was both safe and beautiful, and that there were too many, too many benefits waiting for them, then what would be the outcome?
Not to mention anything else, that group of ancient figures who had been locked up there for so long, each of them only had one thought, and that was to hurry up and come out from inside, and seize everything in this world once they came out.
With this news, were they still afraid that they wouldn’t show up?
So this approach of Zhou An’s seemed simple, but it actually implied a lot of hints.
First of all, Assassination Star was an expert of the Peak Ascension Realm, and to be able to come out from the inside and go back in from the outside proved that the outside was safe and free from any danger.
This imposed the first hint on the other party.
Secondly, it also told the other party how good the outside was, adding on top of the first hint.
With the double effect, it’s hard for the other person not to fall for it.
But there was only one very important issue that needed to be taken into account.
Eunuch Wei tucked his hands in his sleeves and said, “In case he goes back and doesn’t do what you say, won’t that be a surprise?”
This Assassination Star was an expert of the Peak Ascension Realm, with so many thoughts in his head that it would make one’s scalp numb, who could guarantee that he would definitely do what they said?
Zhou An smiled faintly and said, “For this matter, we’ll have to rely on Senior Yuan Qingyi to make a trip over.”
As soon as these words came out, the people present instantly understood what Zhou An was thinking, and all revealed a sinister smile in unison.
This sinister smile fell in Assassination Star’s eyes, causing Assassination Star to shiver.
He always felt that the other party was up to something, and that they were still targeting him to do so.
Eunuch Wei walked forward, then reached out his hand and lifted Assassination Star’s collar, lifting the short man into mid-air: ”How is it? Our family has given you such a long time to think about it, you have to give our family and all the lords an explanation.”
“Live or die, you only have three breaths of time to consider, after three breaths, heads will fall to the ground.”
Assassination Star, as an Ascension Realm expert, and at the peak level, was being carried in Eunuch Wei’s hands at the moment, and didn’t even dare to struggle.
He only had three breaths of time, but his reaction was quick, and without hesitation, he made his choice: “I choose to live.”
That’s right, to live.
There was nothing that was more important than staying alive.
Moreover, the current Assassination Star wanted revenge very much.
Revenge against the tallest figure within the misty space.
If it wasn’t for him letting himself out, how could he have ended up in such and such a situation?
Since this was the case, it would be better for everyone to fall into this bad luck.
Anyway, he couldn’t be the only one who had bad luck.
Thinking about this, Assassination Star’s heart felt a lot brighter.
He even fantasized about the expressions on those guys’ faces after they were tricked out by himself, and couldn’t help but feel more and more pain.
Eunuch Wei loosened his hands, letting Assassination Star fall to the ground, before he tucked his hands back into his sleeves, “In that case, we’ll repair a letter and have someone bring it to the Imperial Palace of the Great Chu Kingdom, telling Yuan Qingyi, that out-of-tune thing, to hurry up and make a trip over.”
Everyone was already accustomed to Eunuch Wei calling Yuan Qingyi out of tune.
In fact that man who was originally extremely reliable did give off an extremely unreliable feeling.
The Far West King suddenly asked at this time, “By the way, how do you plan to send him back inside that space?”
“Fishing is able to fish it out, but sending it back is another method.”
Zhou An shook his finger and said, “There’s no bait when fishing, so just dump him back and use him as bait, it’s very simple.”
“After he goes back, all he needs to do is say that he has me under control, then he can fish out someone at any time, then it will be no problem at all.”
When the crowd heard this, they nodded, indicating that this matter was feasible.
Now that the details had been finalized, it was just waiting for Yuan Qingyi to come over.
Zhou An didn’t have much to do, so he bid farewell to the crowd again and returned to his own place, continuing to go to the proficiency of the Liver Xuan Shadow Slayer.
Time gradually passed, and in the blink of an eye, several days had passed.
The Xuan Shadow Slayer’s proficiency was rising upwards, and Zhou An hadn’t left the house.
And today, a middle-aged eunuch suddenly came to his door and told him that Yuan Qingyi had come.
Zhou An then took Black Jade and once again traveled to Eunuch Wei’s residence.
After arriving here, Zhou An found Eunuch Wei and the others, already waiting here.
Apart from them, there was also Yuan Qingyi who looked extremely unreliable.
Yuan Qingyi’s strength had now been restored to the Heaven Ascending Realm.
He himself was not at the peak of the Ascended Heavens Realm, and now he had merely returned to his original realm.
“Zhou An, it’s still you kid who is righteous enough to call me over, knowing that I was bored staying over there.”
Since many peak Ascension Realm existences were over here dealing with all sorts of things, an Ascension Realm expert like Yuan Qingyi, who was also the holder of a Psychic Divine Pill, stayed over in the Great Chu Kingdom to deal with some unexpected events.
For Yuan Qingyi, who was free-thinking, this could be considered an old crime.
Now that she was able to come out from inside, Yuan Qingyi only felt a wave of comfort.
Zhou An smiled and said, “Senior Yuan, I still need to trouble you to help with this matter.”
With that, he then looked towards the Assassination Star on the ground.
At this moment, Assassination Star shriveled up and cowered in the corner.
Only he knew what kind of mental torture he had been subjected to in the past few days.
It was real torture, not physical.
After all, in the midst of such a situation surrounded by experts, and being a remnant of the Battle of the Hundred Kingdoms himself, he was under pressure that he shouldn’t have to endure every second.
Now after seeing Zhou An come and hearing what he had to say, he relaxed instead.
Yuan Qingyi waved his hand with an air of no problem, “Go ahead, what do you want me to do?”
Zhou An pointed at the Assassination Star and said, “This fellow is a peak Ascension Realm existence, even my poison can’t do much to take him, but senior Yuan is different, senior Yuan himself is in the Ascension Realm, plus he is also the holder of the Psychic Divine Pill, so if some poison is infused into it, then this fellow will be completely subject to us.”
This was the method Zhou An thought of.
As the crowd had said before, in case this fellow went back uncontrolled and shook out all of their plans, then it would be more than just spooking a snake, so it was necessary to add a layer of shackles to this fellow.
And this shackle is Yuan Qing Yi’s Psychic Divine Pill.
The Eight Extreme Techniques in the Psychic Divine Pill, healing and saving people can be there, but it is also able to harm people.
It wasn’t to directly create poison, but it could be done through Yuan Qingyi, the holder of the Eight Extreme Techniques, in a way that matched the medicine to turn it into a harmful medicine.
Black Jade couldn’t do it, after all, the current Black Jade was only the existence of a peak Jedi Enlightenment Mirror, and even if she also had the Eight Jedi Techniques, she didn’t have this ability.
So for this matter, one still had to rely on Yuan Qing Yi.
After hearing this, Yuan Qing Yi’s eyes lit up, “I’m familiar with this matter, it’s been a long time since I’ve done this, it’s still you kid who understands me.”
Ever since he had sacrificed his life for the Great Chu Kingdom back then, Yuan Qingyi had obtained the Psychic Divine Pill, but he had never used it to harm anyone.
As a matter of fact, Yuan Qingyi actually wanted to try it, but there was no suitable object.
Now that there was a suitable object, Yuan Qingyi could not hold back his excitement.
Assassination Star had been listening all along, and when he heard the other party’s method, he only felt a coldness inside.
“It’s over, I don’t have a chance at all.”
As a matter of fact, he had also considered going back and hurriedly telling all these things before coming back for revenge.
But after adding a layer of shackles to him like Zhou An did, he didn’t dare to do anything about revenge at all.
Other than that, just the attribute of being afraid of death made him honest.
Zhou An clapped his hands, “Then I would like to thank Senior Yuan for taking action.”
Yuan Qingyi nodded.
Next, a very heart-stopping and horrifying scene surfaced in front of the crowd.
Only to see Yuan Qingyi extend his hand, grabbing his left arm, and then, very decisively tearing it so far to the front.
Only to hear a clattering sound, a sound as if tearing rags came, Yuan Qingyi expressionless, tore off his left arm.
This scene, even when Zhou An saw it, the corners of his mouth could not help but twitch.
Although there was no blood flowing out, it was a bit too strange.
And as Yuan Qing Yi finished this action, a medicinal scent, filled this room.
Yuan Qingyi was the equivalent of a walking psychic elixir, even Eunuch Wei and the others couldn’t help but inhale a few deep breaths of the medicinal fragrance.
And when Yuan Qingyi saw the expression on Eunuch Wei’s face, he took two steps back, “Don’t mess around, I’m not a tasty person at all.”
Eunuch Wei’s head was full of black lines, he wanted to shake Yuan Qingyi’s palm, but considering that Yuan Qingyi was doing something now, he still didn’t do it.
At this moment, Yuan Qingyi’s figure shifted, and his injured left arm immediately returned to normal and grew a new arm.
Immediately afterward, an even more frightening scene appeared.
Yuan Qingyi’s face was calm as he slowly split his left arm into pieces, and it was also particularly equal.
The parts that were split out immediately wriggled and turned into a mouth-watering flavor of spiritual medicine.
After the spirit medicine appeared, Yuan Qing Yi, as if casually, kneaded these spirit medicines into a fist-sized ball.
The ball emitted a medicinal fragrance, and when Zhou An took a sniff from afar, he felt that the air in his body was somewhat stagnant, proving that this pairing of spirit medicines had paired up a poisonous flavor.
Yuan Qing Yi didn’t care how the people around him looked at it, and then used his hands together, rubbing them continuously.
It was seen that this mass of spiritual medicine that emitted a medicinal fragrance gradually shrunk under Yuan Qing Yi’s rubbing, and in just the blink of an eye, it turned into a thumb-sized pill.
Yuan Qingyi carried this pill and with a hefty smile, walked to the front of Assassination Star.
In front of Assassination Star’s eyes, Yuan Qingyi’s smile at this moment carried a bone-chilling chill.
Yuan Qingyi didn’t care about this, he directly pinched Assassination Star’s chin, then after breaking Assassination Star’s mouth open, he stuffed the pill into it.
Only after doing this did he turn his head.
“It’s done, this medicine only lasts for a day, if you don’t find me to undo it, then it will explode in his body, causing his realm to continuously fall, and ultimately, his lifespan will dry up and he will die.”
Assassination Star had already swallowed the medicine and felt an extra special something in his body.
After he scrutinized it, his face instantly turned pale.
Having reached the Peak Ascension Realm, Assassination Star knew clearly in his heart that the current situation seemed to be indeed as Yuan Qingyi had said.
In other words, he was now completely restrained.
After Yuan Qingyi had done this, the crowd looked in Zhou An’s direction, meaning that it was now up to Zhou An to do something.
Zhou An smiled faintly, then he took out a fishing rod and line from the pink money bag, and said to Assassination Star, “You grab the hook, then I’ll fling you in, remember, what I taught you to say, you’ll have to go in and do the same?”
“I think you are also clear, if you are the one who is unlucky, it is not cost-effective at all, it is better for everyone to be unlucky together.”
Assassination Star nodded repeatedly, indicating that he was very clear on what to do.
In fact, at this point in time nowadays, there was nothing else he could do.
“Don’t worry, I will definitely do as you guys said, and will definitely not cause any other trouble.”
Zhou An then nodded, and was about to fling Assassination Star into the rift.
Suddenly, Assassination Star remembered something and asked.
“If I really succeed in helping you guys, will you really be able to let me live?”
Zhou An waved his hand and said, “Ask all the seniors here, I, Zhou An, nicknamed Honest Little Langjun in the jianghu, never lie to people, if I say I’ll let you live, I’ll let you live, everyone will give me this face.”
After the crowd heard the five words Honest Little Langjun, they only felt a black eye, but for the sake of the greater plan, they all nodded in response.
Assassination Star sighed.
He knew in his heart that now that he was being held by the other party, he was only able to seek momentary relief.
This was also a big gamble, so he hoped that the other party would be honest.
Everything had been taken care of, so Zhou An flung his fishing rod and flung Assassination Star into the distant void.
At this moment, within the Misty Space, numerous figures hidden in the mist were constantly swaying within, as if they were a terrifying existence from a distant era.
Right at this moment, within the misty space, a crack suddenly appeared, immediately attracting the attention of everyone.
Numerous figures cast their rays over, and they saw the short Assassination Star, walking out from within the crack, with a fishhook in his hand.
The situation at this moment was beyond everyone’s expectation, and they all froze.
“It went out, how can it still come back?” Someone whispered.
Assassination Star felt the effects of the Psychic Divine Pill in his body, and knew that even though he was separated by countless distances, he was still restricted.
However, he didn’t show it, but instead quickly walked through the mists and arrived in front of the tallest figure.
The tallest figure gazed at Assassination Star and was about to speak when who knew that Assassination Star began to speak.
“Hurry! We have a chance to get out!”
Assassination Star’s performance was very sincere and carried a hint of urgency.
“That fishing man in the outside world has already been restrained by me, he has now become our tool to fish us all out one by one.”
“We don’t need to wait for this stone door to open, we can completely pocket the outside world.”
After these words appeared, Assassination Star could feel the eyes around him carrying fire.
He laughed coldly in his heart, thinking that after he went out, this group of people would be just as unlucky as he was, and somehow, he was flooded with a hint of pleasure.
The tallest figure fell into silence, and after a moment, slowly said, “Since there is such a good thing, why don’t you take advantage of it outside, but instead come in?”
When these words were asked, everyone cast their eyes over.
Because this was asked without a single fault.
Since you’ve gone out, then why not take advantage of the benefits before saying that you want to put us out?
If there weren’t any other problems, there was bound to be something odd here.
When Assassination Star came in, he also knew that he would be faced with this problem, and had already communicated with Zhou An long ago.
He opened his mouth and said, “There are nearly seven or eight peak Ascension Realm existences out there, I can’t handle it alone, and it seems that the current situation out there has become stabilized after a great battle, if that’s the case, I’m afraid that it will be difficult to reverse it until I find your location and release you out.”
With that, he told some things about the Barbarian Kingdom, as well as the Great Qi Kingdom.
There were even some peak Ascending Heavenly Mirror existences that were also told.
According to Zhou An, there were things that were false and real.
If all of them were told falsehoods, no one would definitely believe them.
However, when falsehoods were mixed with truths, and truths contained falsehoods, then all the words would become truths.
As Assassination Star spoke, he also lamented.
There was indeed something about the height of that young man’s mind.
As expected, after Assassination Star said all of these things, the tallest figure did not continue to ask further, but fell into silence.
Assassination Star didn’t say anything either, waiting patiently.
He knew that now was the time to make a decision, so he did not say anything more.
After roughly nearly half a pillar of incense, the tallest figure looked around.
Around him, all of them were Peak Ascension Realm existences.
“Which one of you is willing to go out and take a look?”
When these words were asked, the peak Heaven Ascension Realm existences that were originally silent immediately came to life at this moment.
A powerful aura that was permeated with a sense of age shrouded the entire piece of mist.
Subsequently, a figure emerged from the mists, transforming into the appearance of a beautiful woman.
The beautiful woman wore a light blue dress and carried a long sword in her hand, her tone extremely indifferent: “Then, I will go out first.”
When these words were exited, none of the Peak Ascension Realm existences present reacted.
Assassination Star looked at this beautiful woman in light blue clothes and unconsciously winced.
(The next chapter is directly resolved, cannot be watered down, not resolved without calling out.)
