Chapter 108 Outsourcing to Outsourcing (Please Subscribe for Support)

Seven days later, Xuejiazhuang.

"That son of a bitch, he didn't take my words to heart at all. I clearly said that if he dared to come looking for me again, I would kill him."

Xue Xiaoren was still dressed in that same flashy outfit.

But that ugly yet innocent smile was nowhere to be seen on his face.

His face looked terrible, and his teeth were grinding together.

Staring at the letter in his hand, the urge to kill someone had reached its peak.

I've never seen such a shameless person in my life.

If it weren't for that bastard, he would never have been exposed.

But now this guy acts like nothing happened, and can still ask him for favors with such a natural attitude.

"Sure enough, there's a reason why this guy was able to revitalize the Huashan Sect. Just his thick skin alone is something even Shi Guanyin couldn't crack."

Xue Xiaoren's expression was full of disdain, but looking at the letter in his hand, he did not tear it to shreds.

the reason is simple.

He gave too much.

Thirty thousand taels of gold!

This is even more expensive than the price I got for stealing my brother's Longevity Sword.

Xue Xiaoren hesitated for a moment.

He asked, "Has my older brother seen this letter?"

"Second Master, rest assured, I know this matter must never be known to the First Master—"

Xue Xiaoren frowned and pondered for a moment, then hesitated before saying, "How about we pull off one last heist?"

Others may not know, but Xue Xiaoren does.

The biggest problem in Xuejiazhuang is actually a lack of money.

Xue Yiren is the best swordsman in the world, but he is not a good manor lord. Since he took over, Xue Family Manor has been declining and its cash flow has been extremely difficult.

If I could get this money——————

It wasn't just to help his brother in his immediate predicament.

The most important thing is that he can prove something.

Look, the problem that the eldest brother couldn't solve, the second brother solved with ease.

Thirty thousand taels of gold, tax-free, is enough for Xuejiazhuang to live on for several years.

Xue Yong, the loyal servant, is the younger brother of the steward Xue Zhong and a close relative of Xue Xiaoren who has followed him since childhood.

Xue Yong's assistance was indispensable in enabling Xue Xiaoren to secretly establish such a large assassin organization without Xue Yiren's knowledge.

At this moment, however, he hesitated and said, "But the old man said you're not allowed to get involved in that organization's affairs anymore!"

"Just do it yourself, and some things, if you put it another way, can change the nature of the whole thing."

A smug, sinister smile crept across Xue Xiaoren's lips.

In the blink of an eye, he had already come up with a solution that would satisfy both sides!

But that calculating smile on that comical face—

Xue Yong: "Pfft—"

Xue Xiaoren angrily retorted, "What are you laughing at?!"

Xue Yong said, "No—nothing's being laughed at—"

'

A moment later.

Xue Xiaoren found Xue Yiren in the Sword Pavilion.

"Oh? You mean you discovered traces of that lecherous villain, Xiong Niangzi, who raped countless innocent girls twenty years ago? And so you decided to eradicate evil and rid the martial world of a scourge?"

Xue Yiren's square face showed a hint of surprise.

He gave his younger brother a deep look and said, "This isn't like you."

Xue Xiaoren sighed with a face full of guilt: "Before, I was only focused on making money, which led me astray and harmed many innocent people. Looking back now, I do realize that I went too far. So I thought that evil debts should be repaid by evil people, so I killed that Xiong Niangzi to rid the world of a great scourge. This way, I can have some peace of mind."

"Is that really what you think?"

A look of emotion appeared on Xue Yiren's face as he said, "I've been strict with you since you were young because I thought you were inherently extreme and I was afraid you'd go astray. But now it seems that you're still kind at heart. Since you have this heart, how could I, as your elder brother, not support you?"

"Big brother, do you agree?"

"Of course, is it necessary for the eldest brother to personally take action?"

"No need for that. I think it's better for me to do it myself. After all, it's my way of atonement, so I can't let someone else do it for me."

"That's true, my second brother has finally grown up."

Xue Yiren sighed with relief.

Xue Xiaoren:

After a long while.

He walked out of Jianlu.

Xue Xiaoren sighed softly, "Look, it's the same thing, but the nature of it has changed. I'm not doing this for the bounty of killing someone; I'm doing it to punish evil and promote good, to eradicate wickedness!"

Xue Yong was still somewhat surprised and exclaimed in shock, "This—you just got away with it? Are you that easy to fool, sir?"

"Perhaps it's because I am, after all, his younger brother."

Xue Xiaoren's expression was extremely complicated.

He could understand Xue Yiren's feelings at that moment.

Seeing her younger brother's progress, she happily overlooked all the unreasonable aspects, only feeling gratified that her brother had finally become independent.

Even the world's number one swordsman, renowned throughout the land, is at heart nothing more than an old man who cherishes family ties.

But it was precisely this sense of relief that made Xue Xiaoren, who had previously been overjoyed at being able to make money, hesitate.

After hesitating for a long time, I finally sighed.

He said, "No matter what, I still have to listen to my brother. I originally planned to quit after this job, but secrets don't stay hidden forever. If my brother finds out, he'll definitely be angry again. Oh well, I'll just earn less, Ah Yong."

"Young Master."

"I remember there used to be an assassin organization that competed with us, I think it was called—Green Robe Pavilion?"

Xue Xiaoren said, "Didn't Yue Buqun give a deposit of ten thousand taels? Use this money to have the people from Qingyi Tower kill that Xiong Niangzi. Also, make sure to keep things clean and don't let anyone find out that I did it. It would be shameful for the number one assassin in the world to hire another assassin to assassinate someone else."

Clearly, although he had decided to abandon this identity, Xue Xiaoren still cared quite a bit about the title of the world's number one assassin.

Compared to the world's number one swordsman, this is one of the few places where he can be on equal footing with his brother.

"Second Master is wise."

Xue Yong's eyes lit up, and he offered a compliment.

"Enough talk—get it done right now! It's ten thousand taels of gold; spend the money before I regret it!"

And so, a lone rider charged out of Xuejiazhuang amidst billowing dust.

Little did Yue Buqun know that the tasks he issued had been outsourced layer by layer by Xue Xiaoren.

Even if he knew, he wouldn't care too much.

All he wanted was Xiong Niangzi's head.

He didn't care who killed him.

At this moment, he and Ning Zhongze were sitting facing each other on the bed.

The two men clasped their right palms together, and streams of warm, purple qi were slowly sent into Ning Zhongze's body through Yue Buqun.

Ning Zhongze silently practiced the Purple Cloud Divine Skill.

She had previously learned the Zixia Divine Skill, but because her mind was too unruly and the skill had too high a barrier to entry, she failed.

-

Yue Buqun now has his own understanding of internal energy cultivation.

In his view, all internal martial arts techniques in the world lead to the same goal, and when cultivated to their highest level, there is no significant difference in quality.

Just like Hong Qigong, who entered from the outside in, the internal energy cultivation method he practiced was certainly not a very advanced method, but in the end he was still able to be ranked as one of the Five Greats.

The difference between a divine skill manual and an ordinary skill is roughly equivalent to one being a smooth and wide road and the other being a rugged and winding mountain road.

Although the altitude is the same, the hardships endured along the way are completely different.

The Purple Cloud Divine Skill has extraordinary effects, and can even prolong life and turn gray hair black again.

However, its difficulty in getting started is astonishing.

At the very least, Ningzhong is currently far from qualified.

However, now Yue Buqun has exploited a bug.

Streams of pure internal energy were sent into Ning Zhongze's body, where she circulated them using the Zixia Divine Skill.

What was once an extremely difficult hurdle for her now seemed like a thin membrane under Yue Buqun's attack, easily broken with a mere push.

Even Ning Zhongze didn't expect that, under her senior brother's guidance, she would cross the most difficult step so easily.

During this period, aside from handling sect affairs, Yue Buqun spent most of his time nourishing Ning Zhongze with his internal energy.

the reason is simple.

After all, she was his junior sister, with whom he had initially relied on each other for survival.

Yue Buqun still hoped that she could keep up with his pace.

Now that he sees that her efforts alone are not enough, as her senior brother, he naturally has to spur her on and give her extra encouragement.
