Chapter 1285: Chapter 533: Master Qingwei’s Mind-Blowing Ideas [Request Subscription]_2
Over a year ago, when Zhou Chun was first attacked by assassins, Master Qingwei had to pay extra because the Ice Hell Sect provided inaccurate information.
At the time, although he was displeased with the actions of the Ice Hell Sect, he tolerated it to achieve his goals.
Upon hearing that Zhou Chun seemed to have returned to his family severely injured, Master Qingwei was somewhat pleased, thinking there was a chance.
But later, with no signal from the Ice Hell Sect’s assassins, nor any news of Zhou Chun’s demise, he became anxious.
When he heard that Zhou Chun was able to travel again, Master Qingwei completely lost his composure.
"What’s going on? What are those Ice Hell Sect assassins doing? Didn’t we agree that this time the move would be foolproof?"
Inside his cavern residence, Master Qingwei raged furiously.
To hire the assassins of Ice Hell Sect to kill Zhou Chun, he paid a hefty price.
Even if most of the agreed payment hadn’t been made, he had already paid a substantial deposit.
More importantly, after this assassination attempt, there was almost no possibility of reconciliation between the Green Lotus Temple and the Zhou Family, leading to potential retaliation in the future!
Therefore, the assassination had to succeed; Zhou Chun, the Zhou Family’s most promising and powerful genius, had to be eliminated!
But the current outcome was moving towards the direction Master Qingwei least wanted to see.
Zhou Chun not only survived two assassination attempts but also seemed determined to leave his family and hide in the shadows.
This resulted in the Green Lotus Temple not only failing to "steal the chicken but losing bait" and now having to worry about retaliation from Zhou Chun. freeweɓnovēl.coɱ
This left Master Qingwei enraged!
Unfortunately, he only had the token to contact the Ice Hell Sect assassins, with no other means to reach them.
Otherwise, he would definitely find the assassin to ask what they were doing!
After waiting anxiously for nearly a month, Master Qingwei finally received contact from the Ice Hell Sect.
However, the way they reached out made his heart skip a beat, and his face instantly darkened.
Because the appointment request was not through their token but was directly delivered to him by a disciple of the Green Lotus Temple.
What did this mean?
It meant that his previous attempts to conceal his identity were in vain, as the Ice Hell Sect already knew who had hired them!
"Hmph, is this a warning to me?"
With a face like thunder, Master Qingwei snorted coldly, his eyes filled with anger.
He certainly didn’t want to interact with the Ice Hell Sect in his true identity; if evidence surfaced, it would be disastrous for both him and the Green Lotus Temple.
But now, with assassins from the Ice Hell Sect at his doorstep, if he continued to avoid them, they might reveal his involvement in hiring killers.
Even without evidence, this would greatly damage his and the Green Lotus Temple’s reputation.
So after much thought, Master Qingwei decided to meet the emissary.
Of course, even for this meeting, Master Qingwei disguised himself thoroughly.
No matter whether the other side knew his true identity, he would certainly not reveal it.
On that day, disguised as an old man, Master Qingwei arrived at the designated location. After waiting for only a quarter of an hour, a figure in white robes appeared before him.
Upon seeing this person, Master Qingwei immediately reprimanded sharply, "Is this how you at Ice Hell Sect operate? Last time you demanded extra payment, which I agreed to, yet now the target is fine and has gone traveling to avoid disaster. You owe me an explanation!"
The white-robed cultivator replied calmly, "Please calm down. Of course, our Ice Hell Sect will give you a satisfactory answer, but first, you must come clean with us."
"Come clean? About what? What do you mean by that?"
Master Qingwei’s face changed, full of confusion as he looked at the white-robed cultivator, not understanding his meaning.
The white-robed cultivator stared coldly at him and said, "Do you know that the disciple we sent to assassinate the target has now disappeared, and according to our tracking, he is already deep within Dragon Abyss Marsh!"
"What? Are you joking? How could this happen!!"
Master Qingwei stared at the white-robed cultivator in shock, stunned by the words.
He was unaware of which assassin was sent by the Ice Hell Sect to kill Zhou Chun, but he knew the hired assassin’s cultivation level would not be lower than the Golden Core Middle Stage, and they would be among the best of such cultivators!
Such a powerful Golden Core Middle Stage cultivator, even if unsuccessful in assassinating Zhou Chun, shouldn’t have any possibility of being injured or dying!
The white-robed cultivator understood Master Qingwei’s shock but still couldn’t help but let out a cold snort, "Hmph, what purpose would it serve to deceive you? I have personally been to the vicinity of Dragon Abyss Marsh, delving thousands of miles within and still couldn’t find him. It’s almost certain that he is indeed within that legendary Dragon Abyss!"
As he said this, his eyes were sharp as he looked at Master Qingwei and said, "Currently, the soul tablet of our disciple is fluctuating, and the soul light is dim; I presume someone has sealed his Primordial Spirit!"
