Start flat, cut off the wife of the five-star empress

Lu Yuan smiled slightly, and the Tiangang Thunder Fire Sword in his hand shone with terrifying power.

No longer giving the opponent any chance to breathe, he cut off the sword without mercy.

Bloody light splashed, and the dark cave was filled with thick murderous aura.

The stalker's body was split in half by the sword's edge, and blood spurted out like spring water.

Lu Yuan looked at his body lying on the ground quietly, feeling calm and victorious in his heart.

This battle was just a small episode, but it made Lu Yuan more determined to move forward.

He knows that only by defeating countless enemies and powerful opponents can he reach his goal.

The team continued forward, struggling in an increasingly desolate and dangerous environment.

They left the cave and found their way forward again in the fog.

"Senior Brother Lu Yuan!"

Su Liyan followed closely behind Lu Yuan, "Is the stalker we just encountered a member of the Blood Shadow Sect?"

"Probably," Lu Yuan nodded, "They have been secretly observing us, trying to find opportunities to attack."

An Luofeng joined the conversation, "It seems that we have attracted their attention."

"The Blood Shadow Sect is not someone to be trifled with. We need to be more careful."

Lu Yuan frowned slightly. Although they had great strength and superb immortal skills, they still needed to remain vigilant in the face of such a powerful force as the Blood Shadow Sect. After leaving the deserted cave, Lu Yuan and Su Liyan came to the Mercenary Regiment Guild in Tianfeng City.

The guild was packed with people, and the release of various tasks was a lively scene.

Lu Yuan and Su Liyan walked through the crowded hall and came to a reliable administrator in a corner.

The administrator looked at the serious and solemn expressions of the two people and smiled slightly, "Are you here to take over the task?"

"I have a task to complete regarding the Phantom Mountains."

Lu Yuan nodded and asked: "What is the specific mission about the Phantom Mountains?"

"Please also tell us in detail."

The administrator thought for a moment and then said: "This mission is about the investigation of a mysterious swordsman."

"According to rumors, there is a skilled swordsman wearing a black cloak deep in the Phantom Mountains who is good at assassination skills."

"He acted covertly and cruelly, killing innocent people."

"We hope someone will be able to find out where he is hiding and apprehend him."

Lu Yuan couldn't help but feel excited and curious after hearing this.

"Is this mysterious swordsman called the 'Shadow Swordsman'?"

"Do you have any other information about him?"

The administrator thought for a moment, "There is not much information about the 'Shadow Swordsman'. I heard that he is a skilled assassin with rich experience.

"But we don't know the specific situation."

Lu Yuan frowned. It seemed that it was not easy to get more information about the "Shadow Swordsman".

He closed his eyes and used the scrying technique, trying to find some clues in the guild.

A few seconds later, Lu Yuan opened his eyes, showing a hint of excitement.

"Su Liyan, I just used the detection technique to detect the inside of the guild."

"A suspicious character was discovered, perhaps related to the 'Shadow Swordsman'."

Su Liyan also felt Lu Yuan's nervousness and excitement, "Then what should we do now?"

"How should I investigate further?"

After Lu Yuan thought for a moment, he said: "We can sneak into the mercenary group first and investigate this clue personally."

"At the same time, it is also very necessary to improve one's own strength when taking action." Lu Yuan and Su Liyan sneaked into the Tianfeng City Mercenary Group Guild. They remained silent and walked carefully through the crowd. The guild was packed with people, and the release of various tasks was a lively scene.

Finally, in a secluded corner, Lu Yuan and Su Liyan found the target administrator.

The administrator looked at the serious and solemn expressions of the two people and smiled slightly, "Are you here to take over the task?"

"I have a task to complete regarding the Phantom Mountains."

Lu Yuan nodded and asked: "What is the specific mission about the Phantom Mountains?"

"Please also tell us in detail."

After Lu Yuan thought for a moment, he said: "We can sneak into the mercenary group first and investigate this clue personally."

"At the same time, it is also very necessary to improve one's own strength when taking action."

"A few days later, after painstaking investigation and lurking, the clues of the "Shadow Swordsman" finally surfaced."

"Based on the clues they received, Lu Yuan and Su Liyan came to the Thunder Fire Pill Pavilion.

Thunder Fire Alchemy Pavilion is a well-known elixir shop, famous for selling high-quality elixirs.

Lu Yuan and Su Liyan entered the store and saw many customers buying various elixirs.

Lu Yuan's eyes flashed with pride. The elixir he produced had gained market recognition, and some people were willing to pay a high price to buy it.

He decided to take advantage of this opportunity to sell the elixirs he made at market prices, while hiring some helpers to help him sell them.

"Thunder Fire Pill Pavilion" soon attracted many customers to buy pills.

Two of the officials from the main palace of Tianfeng City, Elder Qingyang and Messenger Yulin, became interested in the elixir and purchased the "Juyuan Pill".

Lu Yuan stood behind the counter and personally received customers.

When he saw Elder Qingyang and Messenger Yulin choosing to pay without hesitation, his heart was filled with satisfaction and pride.

This shows that the elixirs he made were recognized by people.

Elder Qingyang showed a satisfied smile through the veil, "Little brother, your elixir is indeed well-deserved."

"Messenger Yulin and I are very satisfied with this." (End of this chapter)
