Gate of Immortality

Chapter 31: Old Theft Tricks

When the light appeared, Yang Shi felt like he is standing in a different place. It was a huge hall, beneath the ground. Lots of peoples are coming and going. Most Of them wore masks or hoods, to not to expose their identity.

The Old Man walked to the counter and told Yang Shi," This is the mission hall, the interior of Blood Moon Hall. Although we are infamous for assassinations, There are other bounties as well. You can pick them and complete them in time to get a reward."

" So one can pick any of the mission and get its reward?" Yang Shi question.

" Theoretically, Yes. But you can't choose them. Let me give you an example - Will you choose a mission to kill a Violet Palace Expansion Expert? Unless you are retard or Fully confident to kill him with your power, You will never choose this, With your current power."

" There are also some group missions. But they are very rare. These missions are exceedingly dangerous because they require lots of peoples to complete it, But the rewards are plenty." Yang Shi listened to Old Man.

" So What is your position here?" Yang Shi asked.

" Me? I am just an Old man, Who guides peoples." The Old man said mysteriously.

" Are you?" Yang Shi didn't believe it. His instinct telling him that, This harmless Old man is the most dangerous person here.

But Yang Shi didn't mind and went to the counter.

" I want a mission." Yang Shi said to the middle-aged man, Who was sitting on the chair.

The man looked Yang Shi and handed him Three Scrolls.

[1] Kill Three Bandits named -Blood Hand, Blood Saber, and Blood Ghost. Their Last location was 150 km far from Misty Town City, around Deep Sky Forst region. All of Them are at Primordial Spirit Awakening Realm.

Bounty- 45000 Gold Coins

[2] Kill The Ye Zheng, The son of Merchant Ye. His cultivation is the first stage of the Primordial Spirit Awakening Realm. Bad at fighting, Always Fooling around Jade Lake Palace for gambling. Has three bodyguards of the third stage of the Primordial Spirit Awakening Realm.

Bounty- 35000 Gold Coins

" Yes. This one." Yang Shi picked the second one, Without hesitation.

The Jade Lake Palace is in the western part of Misty Tower City. Its the gathering place of rich Young Masters. It like a brothel and a gambling house. So ordinary people can't enter to spend that much money. Yang Shi had heard the name of this place. He always wanted to go there, for fun.

" Hmm, Three Bodyguards has decent cultivation. But I can kill this Ye Zheng secretly, Then I don't need to worried about those three." Yang Shi made a plan in his mind.

The time for mission is two days. After two days, Ye

Zheng will go to another place.

" Wait! The mission is posted yesterday, so only one day of time remained. People gather in Jade lake Palace at night, So tomorrow night is final." Yang Shi felt a headache by the pressing time.

But Yang Shi determined to take this. So the scroll burned and a Blood Moon appeared on his hand. " I need to prepare somethings."

Yang Shi came back to the inn and went to Hundred Gold Pavilion. He went straight to Mr Huang.

Seeing Yang Shi, Mr. Huang smiled, " Has the customer made his mind to sell the beast core?"

" Hahahaha. It seems Mr. Huang knows. Yes, I came to sell it. What's the price"

" Six Thousand gold coins..." Mr. Huang probed.

" What's the price of Grade One healing pills? Yang Shi asked.

" Three for Four Thousand Gold coins." Mr. Huang said.

" How about Energy Restoration pills?" Yang Shi asked again.

" Three for Six Thousand gold coins."

" Then, Can we trade this core for three Healing pills and one Energy Restoration pills?" Yang Shi offred.

" Hmm... Ok." Mr. Huang nodded after thinking a while.

" Good." Yang Shi took three Healing pills and an Energy Restoration pill.

A healing pill helps to heal the injury to some extent. But it is effectless against grievous, deadly injuries.

Energy Restoration pill helps to restore the Spiritual Qi of a cultivator. Without Spiritual Qi, A cultivator can only wait for death. This pill only works on Spiritual Ascension Realm and initial stages of the Primordial Spirit Awakening realm.

Yang Shi has become cautious from the last mission. He has to take measures against all sorts of situations. He is very frustrated to sell his beast core, but here, Danger is proportional to reward.

Yang Shi prepared for his next mission. In one night, He practiced all of his techniques.

"Let's roll out." Yang shi set out for his new target.

In the evening, Yang Shi walked proudly in the city, behaving like a rich young man. When he arrived in front of Jade Lake Palace, His eyes went wide like a football.

" TH-THIS IS TOO EXTRAVAGANT." Yang Shi saw a giant place ahead. It was adorned with pearls and jades. The front garden has various beautiful flowers. It was lavishly decorated. Young men and women with expensive clothes are entering and exiting.

Yang Shi saw two bodyguards are standing at the doorstep. They are taking the entry fees.

" Fuck, I have no money. What to do..." Yang Shi looked around. He saw a fatty wearing expensive clothes swaggered on the road. He is also going to Jade Lake Palace.

Yang Shi saw the pouch of money on his waist.

" A fat cat. Heheheh. Let's try that trick." Yang Shi smiled wickedly as he tailed the fatty.

" Ah, Young Master, Your money is falling!" Yang Shi shouted at the fatty, showing him some gold coin lying on the road.

" Huh? What?" The Fatty also looked at the coins and went to pick it. Yang Shi swayed his arms and passed by him quickly.

The Fatty looked both sides and thought, " It's just two coins.' He didn't mind much and walked to the Palace.

He opened his pouch to took out the entry fees, but What he took out, was pebbles.

" WHAT?!" the fatty screamed and turned the pouch upside down. First, It wasn't his purse, Second, it is filled with sand and pebble.

" Thief, THIEF!!" The fatty shouted.

...................

" HAHAHAHAHA. This trick always workes." Yang Shi already inside of the Jade Lake Palace and counting the gold coins in the purse.

Of course, The Thief was naturally Yang Shi.
