In the suburbs of Yanjing, there was a vast estate. The buildings were exquisite and ancient. Of course, there were also so modern buildings, which were exceptionally luxurious and refined.
This estate was filled with nurous cultivators and supernatural experts. Even the security guards at the gate were cultivators who had reached the Liquid Transformation Late Stage, each one exuding a powerful aura.
This was, without a doubt, the ancestral land of the Changsun Family. It had a history of over a thousand years.
At that mont, Changsun Hongxuan was in a large hall, raging like thunder and slamming the table with resounding smacks.
"Zhang Bin, you bastard! You beast! You treacherous villain! You've ruined my plans, and now you've even developed dicines for two terminal illnesses, allowing you to garner imnse rit. You'll probably reach the Golden Core Realm soon! No, I absolutely will not let you be so smug!" Changsun Hongxuan shouted furiously.
As a core disciple of the Laoshan Sect, he had received the orthodox heritage of Mount Lao and naturally understood the importance of rit. He had been at the Great Perfection of the Liquid State for three years. Yet, he had been unable to break through to the Golden Core Realm while at Mount Lao. Even taking Condensing Crystal Pills to break through his bottleneck had proven useless.
Therefore, he had no choice but to co down from the mountain to earn rit.
According to his master, he would have to spend decades tempering himself in the mortal world and amassing a vast amount of rit before he even had a chance to break through to the Golden Core Realm. That was why he had planned to find a few girlfriends in the secular world, enjoy himself to the fullest, and father children to carry on his bloodline. Only after reaching the Golden Core Realm would he return to the mountain to continue his cultivation.
The first girl he set his sights on was, of course, Su Man. After all, she was a top-tier beauty who could make any man lose himself completely. What should have been a sure thing was unexpectedly ruined by Zhang Bin. Because of this, he truly hated Zhang Bin.
However, he was acutely aware that dealing with Zhang Bin would not be easy. Sanchahe Village was protected by an Array Plate, and it wasn't far from the Taiqing Sect. As a result, he still hadn't figured out a way to get his revenge.
rit... that's it, rit! I'll snatch his rit away from him! That way, I can kill two birds with one stone. Not only will I get my revenge on Zhang Bin, but I'll also gain a massive amount of rit for myself. I could reach the Golden Core Realm quickly too!
The idea flashed through Changsun Hongxuan's mind, and a smug smile spread across his face.
Without delay, he imdiately went to discuss the matter in detail with his father, Changsun Guangxi, and several powerful family elders.
The Changsun Family was truly extraordinary and brimming with talent. Experts were as nurous as clouds in the sky. Of course, the wisest of them all was Changsun Guangxi. He lacked any talent for cultivation, but his intelligence was peerless. In fact, he was also a Superpower User whose special ability was wisdom itself. That was how Changsun Guangxi, despite having no combat prowess, could serve as the current patriarch of the Changsun Family.
They quickly devised a feasible plan to seize Zhang Bin's rit. To ensure that most of the rit would fall to Changsun Hongxuan, the plan would naturally be his to command.
Changsun Hongxuan imdiately began to rally his forces, and the countless talents of the ancient, massive family started moving like a well-oiled machine roaring to life. The operation to seize Zhang Bin's rit began to unfold in an orderly fashion.
「Coincidentally.」
In a secret chamber within Yanjing's Immortal Palace, Si Yangze and Lv Yuze were also discussing a nefarious plot to deal with Zhang Bin.
"Master, the Taiqing Sect has really struck it rich this ti, developing two dicines that can cure terminal illnesses! Are we just going to stand by and watch them earn a massive amount of rit? To just watch them grow stronger and stronger?" Lv Yuze asked, his face contorted with rage.
Ever since his defeat by Zhang Bin, he had harbored a bone-deep hatred for the man. Although he still didn't know that the two Zhang Bins were the sa person, he knew they both ca from the Taiqing Sect. Naturally, he felt no goodwill toward Divine Doctor Zhang Bin either. In his mind, the two Zhang Bins had to be working together—one handling the entertainnt industry and the other handling dicine. Any rit they earned would surely be shared between them. Perhaps all the disciples of the Taiqing Sect would even get a cut.
Therefore, he was naturally unwilling to see such a thing happen.
Si Yangze's eyes narrowed into slits, a cold light glinting within them as a look of jealousy crossed his face. "The Taiqing Sect is indeed formidable. But they dare to oppose and block my path of cultivation. How could I possibly let them off? My disciple, tell , do you have a good way to deal with them?"
When Zhang Bin left the Immortal Palace last ti, he had issued an order for King of Gamblers Entertainnt Co., Ltd. to stop selecting its starlets from the Immortal Palace. Instead, they were to recruit from major universities and the general public. This struck at the very foundation of Si Yangze's thod for earning rit. Si Yangze beca even more determined to eliminate Zhang Bin and crush King of Gamblers Entertainnt Co., Ltd. under his heel.
Therefore, he had tasked Lv Yuze with establishing a new entertainnt company to begin poaching talent from King of Gamblers Entertainnt Co., Ltd.
Now that Divine Doctor Zhang Bin had developed two dicines for terminal illnesses, they could no longer sit idly by.
"Master, we already discussed hiring an assassin to deal with King of Gamblers Zhang Bin," Lv Yuze said with a vicious smile. "Let's put that plan into action imdiately. Better yet, let's have the assassins take out both Zhang Bins at once! As soon as they're dead, King of Gamblers Entertainnt Co., Ltd. will naturally fall into my hands. As for Wenwu Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd., even if we can't swallow it whole, it's not impossible for us to get our hands on those two formulas. If we just... arrange things correctly... once we have the formulas, we can produce the dicine ourselves. By curing countless patients, all that rit will be ours!"
"Not a bad plan," Si Yangze said, a cruel smile playing on his lips. "Moreover, we can use this to probe the true strength of the Taiqing Sect. Once the two Zhang Bins are dead, we'll see what other powerful experts erge. If we can gauge the Taiqing Sect's true depth, we might have the chance to destroy the entire sect in the future. Their wealth and legacy would beco ours. Then we could master their miraculous dical techniques, and earning rit would be as easy as flipping a hand."
"Master, you are truly insightful," Lv Yuze said admiringly.
"Have you decided which assassin organization to hire?" Si Yangze asked.
"The second-ranked assassin organization, the Black Bell Organization, should be enough," Lv Yuze said with a vicious grin. "Although Black Bell is ranked second to the top-tier Demon Organization, their strength is still formidable. They have several SSS-level Superpower Users, and ten of the world's top fifty assassins belong to them. This organization has one particular characteristic: once they accept a contract, they see it through to the end, no matter how many of their mbers die. They'll fight to the bitter end, which is perfect for dealing with soone like Zhang Bin, who possesses powerful trump cards. Besides, their price isn't too high, and they already have a contact point in Yanjing, which makes things convenient."
In his forr days, he had been the godfather of the entertainnt industry and had even organized the Special Ability Organization known as Baoyu. He had a considerable understanding of the world of assassins. However, his knowledge couldn't compare to Si Yangze's, who knew the ins and outs of it all. After all, Si Yangze was the Sect Master of the Daoyi Sect and hailed from Kunlun, so he was privy to countless secrets.
Si Yangze nodded, a sinister smile on his face. "Go place the order. Put both Zhang Bins on the death list!"
"Zhang Bin, you're finished this ti!" Lv Yuze cackled.
