There would always be brave men after being highly rewarded. The young eunuch in front of him was lured away by the temptation of such a large sum of money.

Starmoon's gentle face immediately contorted into a sinister expression. Her red lips coldly spat out a word, "Speak!"

"This servant has spent so much effort to learn that this Jiu Muli is going to travel in simple clothes today, and leave the Imperial Palace!" The eunuch immediately poured out all the information he had received.

"Do you know where she's going? For what? " Xing Yue was already breathless and short of breath, while Liu Gui Fei asked a few questions as he comforted her.

"This servant isn't too sure. But it seems to be related to the His Highness Duke of Qin, and it was decided by Jiu Muli and the Director Chen after discussion. "

A bloodthirsty look flashed through Liu Gui Fei's eyes. If there's a path to heaven, you don't have to walk it. Without Qin Zheng's protection outside the palace, what are you, a mere Blood Coagulation Stage cultivator, worth?

After receiving the reward, the young eunuch happily turned around and left.

"Mufei, I'm going to send someone to kill her! It's not too much to cut it into a thousand pieces! " Star-moon touched her chest, a strange flush appearing on her face. When she thought that she was about to get her revenge, she did not feel any joy.

The Liu Gui Fei patted her hand gracefully as her charming smile revealed a trace of ruthlessness. "Mufei agrees to spend a lot of money to go to the Dark Hall to get an assassin!"

What he did not know was that after the eunuch from outside the palace came out, he looked around, and then tiptoed towards Nangong Xueji's residence. He then repeated what he had said to the Liu Gui Fei once more.

After Nangong Xueji finished listening, he pondered for a moment, then gave a bag of Golden Leaves to Su Yun and smiled, "Then I will thank you very much. If you have any other news in the future, please come and tell me."

"Of course, of course." The young eunuch laughed until his teeth could no longer be seen. However, he was completely unaware of the dangers that the information he had sold would bring to Jiu Muli.

When the Liu Gui Fei and Nangong Xueji heard that their archenemy was about to leave the palace, their first reaction was to be overjoyed. However, the two of them had important matters to attend to, so it would be inconvenient for them to travel far away.

Liu Gui Fei was the concubine of an emperor so he was normally not allowed to step out of the palace, let alone go for ten to fifteen days. On the other hand, Nangong Xueji had to prepare the matters regarding the Opening the Profound Vein.

Therefore, the same thought flashed through the two of them at the same time. They both thought of the same thing ? Dark Hall.

The Dark Hall was a huge, strict, and disciplined killer organization. Its branch was spread across every nation in Eternal Continent, and it took on almost every level of missions. From the noobs of Blood Coagulation Stage to the strong ones like the Star King Neptune, as long as you can raise the price, the Dark Hall can accept it!

Another unique characteristic that caused people to click their tongues was the high success rate of the Dark Hall's missions. Every assassin was adept in agility and techniques, allowing them to successfully complete most of the missions.

Spending a lot of money to hire a killer to get rid of her would leave no trace, but it was also effective.

Thus, at the same time, the Sky Dark Hall received two richly rewarded missions, and the goal of the missions, was to kill a cultivator from the Blood Coagulation Stage, named Jiu Muli!

At this time, Jiu Muli was travelling northwards toward the Purgatory Volcano.

Director Chen told her that Purgatory flower of seven colors were extremely rare, and she had only seen three in the past few years. Two of them appeared in other countries, and the only one that was located in Qin Kingdom was at the northern end of the palace where the Purgatory Volcano was located.

Jiu Muli's time was extremely precious, after all, only ten days remained until the battle on the life and death arena with Jiu Tianxue!

She had to travel back and forth within ten days, so she could only try her luck at Purgatory Volcano with the thought of fighting to the death.

It was as if Jiuhua Hall had returned to its former cold and clear state due to the loss of a certain young girl's voice and smile. Qin Zheng raised his sword-like eyebrows unconsciously, and swept his sharp gaze across the locked door of Jiu Muli's room. "What is she doing? Why didn't you see her coming out to eat and grab medicine today? "

Director Chen, who had been worried for an entire day, felt his heart first tremble, then he said with a face full of smiles, "Won't the life and death arena battle that decides the fate of Ninth Miss ten days from now be? Ninth Miss specially decided to cultivate behind closed doors from today onwards in order to prepare for the battle ten days later. "

As he told this lie that he had spent an entire day trying to figure out, he carefully observed Qin Zheng's expression, afraid that Qin Zheng would see through it.

Qin Zheng did not sense anything amiss, but nodded his head thoughtfully and walked forward with large strides.

A huge stone in Director Chen's heart suddenly dropped to the ground. He was secretly rejoicing in his heart when he suddenly heard Qin Zheng's cold voice, "Director Chen."

"What orders does Master have?" His breath caught in his throat and he nearly choked on it. His heart was in his throat again.

Qin Zheng said indifferently, "Inform the palace maids not to disturb her cultivation near Ninth Miss's palace."

"Yes sir!"

Jiu Muli, who was heading straight for Purgatory Volcano, had a particularly dull and dry journey. Other than sleeping and walking around, all of them were either traversing the mountain ridges or traversing the marsh.

According to the map given to her by the Director Chen, she was facing Purgatory Volcano. Jiu Muli took a deep breath, and walked forward resolutely.

She knew that the real challenge would begin at the foot of the mountain along the way.

One was the demonic beast that filled the mountains and the other was scorching hot magma. The high temperature was so high that it was close to a few dozen or even a hundred degrees celsius and was something she was unable to withstand at the moment, so she had to be extra careful.

However, Jiu Muli did not expect that after stepping into the Purgatory Volcano, she would face her greatest danger.

A group of men in black appeared in front of her, and seemed to compare notes with a scroll. The leader of the group shouted, "Discovered mission target!"

Thus, the formation of the black clothed person changed, gradually dispersing from her original state. They surrounded her from all directions, making it impossible for her to escape.

Thinking about it this way, she had a lot of enemies. From Jiu Tianxue, Prince Zheng, to Xingyue and the Liu Gui Fei behind her, there had been another Nangong Xueji recently, it was really lively.

Just as the group of black-clothed men were about to attack, another group of assassins appeared and rushed towards Jiu Muli.

The two groups of people surrounded her completely, leaving no room for retreat.

"Are you sure you're here to kill me?" Jiu Muli pointed at herself, her face filled with helplessness. She actually wanted to know, who was the one who was so impatient to take away her head right after she left the palace.
