The commissioned price far exceeded the estimates of Mo Shiyi’s group, and the Death Shadow Sect gave a very high evaluation of Chen Fei. However, with a high evaluation comes a hefty price.

At this point, Mo Shiyi and his group had no choice but to accept it.

When it comes to handling tasks, wavering is the last thing one should do. Once a decision is made, one must grit their teeth and complete it.

Mo Shiyi and his companions had the decisiveness to reach the Combined Aperture Tempering realm in their cultivation journey, so despite the exorbitant price, they agreed, considering the reputation of the Death Shadow Sect.

For this commission, the Death Shadow Sect would attempt the assassination three times.

If all three assassination attempts failed, they would refund half of the commission fee as compensation to the client and terminate the mission.contemporary romance

There was no such thing as relentless pursuit in the world of assassins. All assassin organizations lacked such a rule. Those who did might experience rapid growth initially, but in the end, none of them would survive.

Break Soul Sect.

“Sorry, in this flag-snatching battle, I almost didn’t contribute anything, and I even came close to making a big mistake!” Yu Shoucheng looked at Qin Haishan and the others, feeling ashamed.

He was the first to be eliminated, and at that time, Yu Shoucheng thought they had lost the flag-snatching battle for sure. However, unexpectedly, the situation turned around, and they ultimately emerged victorious.

However, even though they won, Yu Shoucheng’s contribution in this flag-snatching battle was indeed not significant.

“In the face of that situation, it would have been difficult for anyone to avoid it. There’s no need to blame yourself,” Zhao Tianxuan said with a smile.

Regardless of the process, the current outcome was favorable, which was the most crucial point.

“Let’s modify the originally proposed distribution method for the secret realm, reducing my Yu family’s share,” Yu Shoucheng suggested, shaking his head.

For an alliance to exist long-term, fairness had to be maintained.

In that situation, it was likely that anyone who went would have faced a similar situation. Even if it had been Chen Fei who extracted the sword element from the spatial grid, it would have been challenging to predict the final outcome. But since it was Yu Shoucheng who had gone at the time, he naturally bore the responsibility.

“The distribution of the secret realm indeed needs some adjustment.”

Qin Haishan nodded slightly, glanced at everyone, and then turned his gaze to Chen Fei, saying, “Most importantly, the share for the Primordial Sword Sect should be increased to twice its original size, with the extra portion divided among the other four families.”

“Agreed!” Tong Zhongqiu nodded without objections, and Yu Shoucheng did the same.

Zhao Tianxuan hesitated for a moment but also agreed. Zhao Tianxuan wasn’t against modifying the distribution method, but he couldn’t help feeling sorry for the fact that his family’s Third Grade Secret Realm was getting smaller. However, Zhao Tianxuan understood that Chen Fei’s role in this battle was undoubtedly the most crucial. Without Chen Fei, the flag-snatching battle would most likely have ended in defeat.

If they had truly lost, it wouldn’t have been just a reduction in the size of the Third Grade Secret Realm; it would have meant losing it altogether.

“No need to be so polite, everyone,” Chen Fei said with a soft smile.

“It’s only fair,” Qin Haishan also smiled.

Qin Haishan rarely smiled in ordinary circumstances, but lately, he seemed to be smiling more frequently. Winning the Third Grade Secret Realm was a cause for celebration, and Chen Fei’s exceptional performance contributed to that.

Who would have thought that Chen Fei would turn out to be the biggest hero of this flag-snatching battle?

Initially, Tong Zhongqiu and Yu Shoucheng had brought Chen Fei into the alliance, and Qin Haishan had primarily agreed because he saw Chen Fei’s future potential.

In this flag-snatching battle, the goal Qin Haishan had set for Chen Fei was simply not to drag them down and complete the tasks as required.

However, in reality, Chen Fei not only didn’t hinder them but played an indispensable role throughout the entire flag-snatching battle.

Moreover, Chen Fei’s strength displayed in the flag-snatching battle, not to mention his secret techniques, was simply astounding.

Miao Wanhong and Hu Yanwu, both in the Combined Aperture Tempering realm, were consecutively defeated by Chen Fei. Chen Fei had only broken through to the Combined Aperture Tempering realm a year ago, and he already possessed such power. If he continued to grow, the potential was truly remarkable.

Qin Haishan initially believed that Chen Fei would need at least thirty years to fully realize his potential. However, he now realized that he had been too conservative in his estimate.

Or perhaps, Chen Fei’s talent was simply too extraordinary to predict.

Chen Fei initially declined a couple of times but eventually agreed.

Under the new distribution method, the area allocated to the Primordial Sword Sect within the secret realm would increase significantly, while the other four families would see reductions to varying degrees.

Seeing Chen Fei agree, Qin Haishan’s smile grew even broader. As long as they maintained this alliance, it would continue to thrive in the future.

Although it seemed like they had lost a significant portion of the Third Grade Secret Realm’s area, in the long run, they would actually gain much more.

Half an hour later, Chen Fei left the Break Soul Sect and returned to the Primordial Sword Sect.

In mid-air, Chen Fei looked at the flourishing state of the Primordial Sword Sect and couldn’t help but smile.

Chen Fei discussed the matter of the Third Grade Secret Realm with the Sect Master, Qu Qingsheng.

Upon hearing it, Qu Qingsheng couldn’t hide his joy. The fact that the Primordial Sword Sect could have a Third Grade Secret Realm was already a cause for celebration. Now, with the increased area in the secret realm, their happiness knew no bounds.

With a constant supply of spiritual materials from the Third Grade Secret Realm, the cultivation levels of the sect’s disciples would undoubtedly experience a surge. Not to mention the increase in the number of disciples at the Combined Aperture Tempering realm and above.

Furthermore, due to the presence of the Third Grade Secret Realm, more and more new disciples would join the Primordial Sword Sect, creating a virtuous cycle.

Qu Qingsheng left with the good news, and Chen Fei returned to his cultivation. Strength was accumulated through these daily efforts, and Chen Fei didn’t find the routine practice boring at all. He was driven by a strong sense of purpose. At most, there were times when he felt a bit restless, and he would find other ways to alleviate it, such as discussing matters related to cultivation with Chi Shuqing.

Chi Shuqing was very cooperative and, even though she couldn’t keep up with Chen Fei’s pace sometimes, she endured and enjoyed it. At most, she fainted a few times, but it wasn’t a big deal.

Fainting was something Chi Shuqing had long gotten used to.

If she doesn’t faint for a while, she starts wondering if Chen Fei didn’t perform well that day.

Time flew by, and in the blink of an eye, ten days had passed.

The Third Grade Secret Realm had been completely cleared out, and the Primordial Sword Sect and the other four forces moved in directly, each guarding their allocated area.

Since they were all allies, the guarding was more of a formality, and there was no need to worry about anyone crossing the boundaries.

If anyone dared to cross the boundaries, the first to act would likely be the members of their own sect. Such actions that would disrupt the alliance relationship would not be tolerated.

“What about that spirit tree?” Chen Fei asked as he took a piece of root handed to him by Tong Zhongqiu, curious.

Chen Fei had heard about the spirit tree of the Immortal Cloud Sword Sect ever since he joined the Primordial Sword Sect. Even the two Receival Bead he used in the Body Refining Realm were refined from the fruit cores of the spirit tree. One of the Immortal Cloud Sword Sect’s most important assets was this spirit tree, which had been transplanted from Immortal Cloud City to their current location.

Not only the Receival Bead, but even the main ingredient in the Origin Awakening Pill he obtained from the Alchemist Alliance originally came from the fruit of this spirit tree.

Compared to fruit cores, these tree roots cut directly from the spirit tree were undoubtedly more convenient to plant, and their survival rate was higher. “When my sect obtained it, it had already been several hundred years ago,” Tong Zhongqiu nodded.

When Tong Zhongqiu joined the Immortal Cloud Sword Sect, this spirit tree was already present in the sect. The glory of the Immortal Cloud Sword Sect owed much to this spirit tree.

“Thank you!” Chen Fei expressed his gratitude.

“It was agreed upon beforehand, no need to be so polite,” Tong Zhongqiu waved his hand and smiled.

In the face of Chen Fei, Tong Zhongqiu’s previous concerns were not as heavy. What was destined in the past could not be changed, and now they could only look forward.

At least now they were allies, and the stronger Chen Fei became, the more significant benefits the Immortal Cloud Sword Sect could obtain.

After chatting for a while, Tong Zhongqiu left, and Chen Fei flew to the center of the Primordial Sword Sect’s area in the secret realm with the piece of tree root.

At this moment, there was a treant, walking on its short legs, sowing various spiritual material seeds while continuously explaining the key points of cultivation to the disciples of the Primordial Sword Sect around it.

The disciples around didn’t dare to be distracted and continued to record with pen and paper. They showed no unusual expressions because the treant was a supernatural being; instead, they maintained their focus.

Not to mention the treant’s aura as a second-tier supernatural being, just the fact that it was under the care of Elder Chen Fei in the sect was enough to instill reverence in them.

“Elder Chen!”

One of the disciples sensed the unusual presence in the sky, looked up, and spotted Chen Fei. He quickly bowed, and the other disciples followed suit. Chen Fei waved his hand with a smile and then landed in front of Baka.

“Chen Fei!” Baka saw Chen Fei and broke into a wide grin, his features all squeezed together.

“How does it feel here? Are you adjusting well?” Chen Fei asked.

“It’s amazing, I’ve never experienced anything like this!”

Baka’s excitement was palpable in his response. The best secret realm he had stayed in before was only a lower-level second-tier secret realm, and it was newly transitioned at that.

It didn’t take long before he almost got killed.

But now, in this Third Grade Secret Realm, the environment was beyond words, surpassing his previous experiences several times over.

“That’s good. Take a look at this piece of tree root. Can you plant it successfully?” Chen Fei smiled as he handed over the tree root in his hand.

Baka glanced at the tree root, sensed it for a moment, nodded, and said, “It can be done.”

“Good, for now, your main focus should be on growing this tree. You can put the others aside for a while!” Chen Fei instructed.

“Don’t worry, my friend. You can count on me,” Baka patted his chest and replied confidently.

Time passed quietly, and in the blink of an eye, it had been over half a year.

During this time, Chen Fei remained within the Primordial Sword Sect, dedicating himself to cultivation without leaving the sect once. He poured all his energy into the Primordial Profound Art.

His proficiency in the Primordial Profound Art was gradually approaching the state of Great Completion.

A hundred miles away, a figure stared intently in the direction of the Primordial Sword Sect, his eyes filled with cold determination.

He had been waiting for over half a year to kill Chen Fei, and now Chen Fei seemed to have gone nowhere. He had no idea how much longer he would have to wait.

Being an assassin required great patience, but this was pushing the limits!
