Today's Seven Killings Hall is rather busy. The Hall Master has not appeared for many days, and the other five Yama all have their own matters. Only the seat to the left of the main throne is occupied by a mysterious masked Black Robe.

The second-ranked Yama of Seven Killings Hall, Chu Jiang King!

Although he has been with Seven Killings Hall for less than a century, he has used his formidable strength to subdue everyone beneath him.

He has become the number two figure in Seven Killings Hall.

To say he is highly ranked and powerful is no exaggeration.

But today, as he was pondering over some matter, his eyebrows moved suddenly, and a flash of light shone from his sleeves. A talisman appeared in his hand, followed by a low voice being transmitted.

After speaking, the talisman automatically destroyed itself; the Sound Transmission Talisman was thus rendered useless.

After hearing it, Chu Jiang King slightly furrowed his brow and muttered to himself:

"This kid, just arrived in the south and already causing trouble. It truly is bothersome, but he is a Chen family child, able to kill Guan Hai, though... having killed Guan Hai, he must find a way to fend off Liangshan.

Or does this kid know something? Deliberately inciting enmity with Liangshan?"

Indeed, the Chu Jiang King of Seven Killings Hall was none other than Chen Yuan's uncle, whom Chen Yuan thought had long since fallen. Back then, his tracks were leaked, and someone schemed to reveal them to the imperial court.

This led to the imperial court's experts setting up a net to surround and kill him.

But he still had some foundation; though he appeared fallen, he had a backup plan, having only faked his death, but the injuries he suffered were real, and it would take decades to recover.

Suspicious of being plotted against by the Xiang Family, he didn't resurface. Instead, he found a way to hide in Seven Killings Hall, slowly growing into one of its Yama.

But when he wanted to search for his sister's whereabouts, he only found she had perished, and in a fit of rage, he thought about confronting Xiang Qianqiu, but later came to realize some truths.

Knowing he was no match for Xiang Qianqiu, confronting him would be self-humiliation, so he gradually lay low.

Later, when Chen Yuan's fate's obscuration was lifted, and as he went through great lengths to track down Wu Daozi, he unexpectedly saw a portrait of Chen Yuan, which shook him to the core.

Because this child resembled both Xiang Qianqiu and Xuanling, and after confirmation, he was completely certain about him.

Right at this time, he thought of where Wu Daozi might head and unexpectedly learned that the Japanese warriors wanted to use Seven Killings Hall's force to kill Chen Yuan.

His identity was best not to be exposed for the time being, but he also couldn't watch his nephew die.

So, he revealed this information to Wu Daozi and guided Chen Yuan to take the Chen Family's Battle Flag to Blood Lake, which he had once refined with a formation, where more than a hundred thousand heroic spirits of the Chen Family slumbered, having dyed it red with blood.

First letting him know his identity and receive favors, gradually helping him grow.

It's just that his nephew turned out to be quite abnormal, growing so rapidly that it frightened his arrogant uncle.

As Chen Yuan ventured to the south, he thought the timing was right to lend him a hand, but then... this kid clashed with the people of Liangshan.

If those bandits were so easily dealt with, Seven Killings Hall wouldn't be so troubled.

Without the intervention of an Immortal, dealing with Liangshan is extremely difficult,

even the Hall Master, ninth on the Supreme List, wasn't very confident and currently is in a stalemate.

"Hoo..." Chu Jiang King let out a long breath.

Intervention must be done.

Chen Yuan is the hope of the Chen Family, as well as his and Xuanling's hope. Based on him alone, there's no way to break through the Six Realms in his lifetime, and without the strength of the Six Realms, it's impossible to eliminate the Xiang Family.

Thus, he must help Chen Yuan through this hurdle.

After all, he's his uncle, blood is thicker than water.

After a moment of silence in the hall, Xiang Qianqiu took out an item and transmitted a message:

"Hall Master, I've just taken a task. It's quite interesting."

"What task?"

The cold voice of the Hall Master of Seven Killings Hall came from the transmitted item.

"Chen Yuan killed Liangshan's Demon Blade Guan Hai. Someone is concerned about his safety and hopes Seven Killings Hall will stand up for him, blocking Song Lun and others."

"Guan Hai is dead?"

"Dead."

"Are you sure?"

The Hall Master of Seven Killings Hall asked seriously.

Liangshan Lake and Seven Killings Hall are at odds, competing for various resources. They are quite clear about several top experts, and Chen Yuan being able to kill him isn't simple.

However, it's not impossible.

Chen Yuan even managed to kill the Refining God Peak King Zhuanlun, so killing Guan Hai is reasonable.

"Certain."

"You wish to take this task?"

"I already have."

Chu Jiang King replied.

"The reward is high?"

"Not very, but our Seven Killings Hall is currently in conflict with Liangshan already, so this wouldn't matter much. Besides, I also want to meet Chen Yuan, who can kill King Zhuanlun while in the Core Realm, and see what he can do.

If possible, collaborating with him to deal with Liangshan wouldn't be bad either."

"With Guan Hai dead, Liangshan will surely dispatch a True Monarch. The second in command Pagoda-Bearing King rarely takes action, and his strength is unknown. The one to act is likely Song Lun. Are you confident?"

The Hall Master of Seven Killings Hall inquired.

He doesn't simply think Chu Jiang King is no match. In fact, even he takes this person seriously; entering the forefront of the Supreme List would be easy, but dealing with Song Lun might not be certain.

"How would we know if we don't try?"

Chu Jiang King smiled faintly.

"Since you're so confident, then take it on."

The Hall Master of Seven Killings Hall said no more.

Their style of acting is just like that; they have no enmity with the Jianghu martial artists; today they send someone to kill a target, and when it fails and the assassination is turned on them, they can still be hired by that target tomorrow.

They care about interests, about cultivation, not just simple grudges.

If King Zhuanlun is dead, he's dead; there won't be talk of revenge, otherwise, no matter how much the Seven Killings Hall can rival Spirit Mountain, they couldn't survive as they have too many enemies.

"Alright, the Hall Master can continue to retreat into seclusion."

Chu Jiang King said lightly.

"Hmm. Be careful, if things can't be done, retreat immediately."

Chu Jiang King is different from King Zhuanlun; he is a Yang God True Monarch, very high in status, second only to the Hall Master. If he were to die, Seven Killings Hall would suffer greatly.

"Hmm."
