Chapter 1714: Spirit Medicine Hall

ly 50s stood out from the crowd. His clothes were unlike anyone else's, a riot of color and extravagance.A long sword still hung at his waist, its ancient scabbard inlaid with jewels on the hilt. It c..."May I be of further service to you, esteemed guest"

As the saying goes, money can make the devil grind. The waitress's attitude was particularly good after receiving a tip.

Ye Bufan originally wanted to leave, suddenly his heart moved and said: "By the way, I still have something I want to ask you about."

“I will tell you everything I know.”

"That's right, I have a son who is also a cultivator. He has now reached the Nascent Soul stage."

We're not short on money at home, but his dream since he was a child has been to be an assassin.

I want to ask, if he wants to join the Assassin's Guild, are there any requirements By the way, I'd also like to learn more about the situation here.

This was Ye Bufan's just-conceived idea. Before refining the 補天丹 (Bǔtiān Dān), the only thing that could quickly help him improve his cultivation was the 神元丹 (Shén yuán dān).

If I were to replace the role of a judge and become an assassin, I could use my skills to eliminate evil and corrupt officials while also obtaining materials for alchemy and making a fortune. This would be a win-win situation with three benefits.

The current issue is a lack of knowledge about the Assassin's Guild, so we need to gather as much information about them as possible.

"This is easy, our assassin guild welcomes anyone..."

The female attendant enthusiastically explained the situation of the Assassin's Guild, detailing everything from how an assassin accepts and completes missions to the rewards and risks involved in each undertaking.

After she finished explaining, Ye Bufan asked: "Do assassins here also have levels"

“Of course, the assassins here operate on a points system. The lowest ranking is a one-star assassin, and it goes up from there all the way to a nine-star assassin.”

"Are the Nine-Star Assassins the best there is"

"That's not right, the top assassin in our Assassin's Guild is Death." The waitress said solemnly, "However, assassins who reach the level of Death are extremely rare. In our entire Kunlun continent, there are only a handful of them."

"Ye Bufan asked curiously, "Is the Reaper very powerful What level can they reach"

"Of course." The waitress glanced around, making sure no one was nearby before lowering her voice. "The Death God is the highest being in our Assassin Guild. Legend has it that even cultivators in the Tribulation Transcendence period could commit suicide under his command."

"That's why the Shinigami holds a very high position and is generally not allowed to be commented on."

Even cultivators who have reached the tribulation period can be assassinated. Ye Bufan was truly shocked, and then he took a sharp breath of cold air.

The female attendant continued, “In terms of rank, one to three stars are just ordinary assassins, four to six stars are middle-level assassins, and seven to nine stars are high-ranking assassins.”

Assassins of different ranks receive different fees and enjoy varying benefits. High-ranking assassins can accept custom missions from guilds and receive a particularly high commission split.

"I understand."

Ye Bufan nodded. When he received the identity token from the judge before, he saw three small stars on it and thought they were just decorations on the token. Now he realized that they represented his level.

"Beautiful lady, could you show me the mission board I'd like to tell my son all about it when I get back."

He had previously heard from the female attendant that the Assassin Guild's tasks were posted on a task wall.

Of course.

The task wall was no secret, the waitress led him to the hall without hesitation.

The hall of the Assassins' Guild was quite large, all around a thousand square meters or so. It was bustling with people, some assassins came to accept missions, and some guests came to post missions.

Surrounding the area are nine task walls, each categorized by assassin's level from one to nine stars.

Ye Bufan came to a mission wall and stopped. He took a look at it, not much different from electronic screens on Earth.

It is about five meters long and four meters high, crafted from a special kind of jade, and there are fluctuations of an array on it.

On the task wall, rows of text appeared, displaying assassination missions. Each mission listed the target's information and the bounty offered by the requester.

And every few minutes, the content above refreshes, accompanied by waves of magic.

The female attendant said, "Our entire Kunlun Continent guild is synchronized. That means the tasks displayed here are for the entire Kunlun Continent, not just our Tianlang City."

"Not bad!"

Ye Bufan nodded. Being able to use a super formation network to create a task wall showed how powerful the Assassin's Guild was, and it was no wonder that they were feared throughout the entire Kunlun Continent.

He then went to look at the task boards for higher-level missions. As the level increased, the number of tasks decreased, and the difficulty also increased significantly.

Assassination targets are either superpowered individuals or sect elders, in any case, extremely difficult missions to accomplish.

Having learned almost everything about the Assassin's Guild, he turned and quietly returned to Taiping Medical Hall.

The next morning, everything in the clinic was as usual. Ye Bufan didn't mention what happened last night to Su Jia and his daughter, and the two of them didn't seem to notice anything amiss.

After breakfast, he suggested going to the apothecary to buy medicine. Sudingfang was afraid he wasn't familiar with the road and asked Su Caowei to come along directly.

Tianlang City isn't very big, at least much smaller than the large cities on Earth. However, the main mode of transportation here is by foot, so getting around can be quite time-consuming.

About half an hour later, the two arrived at Lingyaozhai, the largest pharmacy in the entire city.

Su Caiwei said, "Brother Ye, if you want any medicinal herbs, just buy them here. If they don't have it here, no other apothecary will either."

Ye Bufan nodded, and the two stepped inside.

I have to say, the herbs here are truly comprehensive, and they are all wild herbs. They are old, potent, and top-quality medicines.

He would soon need to refine the medicinal herbs for the Rejuvenation Pill. He had bought all sorts of things, and in the end, only Seven Star Grass and Crimson Yuan Fruit remained.

When asked about whether these two medicines were available, the shopkeeper shook his head.

"Leaf Bufan said stubbornly, 'Shopkeeper, could you help think of a way I'll pay any price if I can buy these two herbs.'"

By now, there are over a million gold coins in the ring. He seems to have some confidence when he speaks.

"Young man, in this Kunlun Continent, some medicinal herbs can't be bought with money." The shopkeeper said, "The Seven Star Grass you mentioned, I've never heard of it. If my memory serves me right, it should be an extremely rare herb."

Ye Bufan's heart immediately leapt with joy: "Shopkeeper, so you've heard of the Hong Yuan Guo"

The shopkeeper nodded. "That's right, I've heard the name Hongyuan Guo before, but I've never actually seen it."

It is said to be an extremely rare elixir that greatly benefits the mental power of warriors.

"A herb like this It would have been snapped up by those wealthy clans and prestigious sects long ago. There's no way something like this could end up in a humble little apothecary like mine."gs would be a lie.Ye Bufan comforted: "Auntie, you don't have to be too sad. This ungrateful wretch is a trouble anyway. Besides, you have your own son, and you'll find him sooner or later."I don't kn...
