Eternal Sacred King - Chapter 2465

2465 A Shocking Assassination!
“When did you discover it?”

Su Zimo looked at Yun Zhu curiously.

He was not surprised that Yun Zhu had her doubts after uncovering a clue from Tao Yao.

However, it was a little ridiculous for Yun Zhu to be able to confirm his relationship with the Martial Dao Prime Body from just Tao Yao alone!

Su Zimo believed that he must have let slip even before this to attract Yun Zhu’s attention.

“Make a guess.”

Yun Zhu pursed her lips and smiled, but she refused to say anything.

If it was any other time, Su Zimo would definitely recall carefully where he had revealed any flaws in the past.

However, at that moment, he was thinking about something else and was in no mood to do it.

Suddenly, Su Zimo asked, “Where is Prince Yuan Zuo now?”

Yuan Zuo would definitely not be able to continue staying in Green Cloud City after losing his status as the Prince of Green Cloud County.

“Yuan Zuo?”

Yun Zhu was stunned for a moment, not understanding why Su Zimo would suddenly shift the topic. However, she still said, “Yuan Zuo has lost his power for many years and has long been reduced to an ordinary prince with an idle position. Right now, he should be in Absolute Thunder City.”

Su Zimo nodded and said in a deep voice, “I’ll leave Feng Ziyi and Perfected Immortal Burial Night to you. I won’t tag along.”

“You’re leaving?”

Yun Zhu was a little surprised. Su Zimo’s departure came without any warning.

“We’ll meet again in the future. Thank you for this time round.”

Su Zimo cupped his fists and prepared to leave.

Yun Zhu frowned slightly, feeling that something was amiss.

Just as Su Zimo was about to get out of the carriage, a thought flashed through Yun Zhu’s mind. She thought of a possibility and called him back hurriedly, “Hold on!”

Su Zimo paused.

Yun Zhu had a grim expression as she asked in a deep voice, “Su Zimo, are you thinking of heading to Absolute Thunder City of the Great Jin Immortal Kingdom to cause trouble for Prince Yuan Zuo?”

Su Zimo sighed internally.

Yun Zhu was way too smart.

He had just asked casually and Yun Zhu had already guessed his motive.

Su Zimo knew that he could not hide it from Yun Zhu. Therefore, he remained silent as a form of acknowledgment.

Yun Zhu went forward and grabbed Su Zimo’s wrist, pulling him back. Pushing him back to his seat, she frowned. “Brother Su, I know that you’re indignant, but calm down first!”

Su Zimo remained silent.

Yun Zhu said, “That’s the Great Jin Immortal Kingdom we’re talking about. You’ve long been wanted by the Great Jin Immortal Kingdom. That’s way too dangerous! I’m afraid you’ll be discovered before you even enter Absolute Thunder City, let alone look for Prince Yuan Zuo.”

Su Zimo said, “I have a disguise technique that can hide from everything, allowing me to infiltrate Absolute Thunder City. In fact, I can even enter Yuan Zuo’s residence with ease.”

Yun Zhu recalled as well that back at the Immortal Sect Selection, Su Zimo had indeed disguised himself and it was difficult for others to tell.

“Even if you can infiltrate Absolute Thunder City, what are you intending to do?”

Yun Zhu frowned and asked, “Absolute Thunder City is heavily guarded and there are many experts. Do you intend to kill Prince Yuan Zuo in his territory?”

“There’s no harm in that!”
Su Zimo had a calm expression as he said in a deep voice, “Prince Yuan Zuo is only an ordinary prince right now. After a few consecutive failures, his reputation and status among the princes and princesses of the Great Jin Immortal Kingdom must have fallen to the bottom!”

This time round, Yun Zhu did not refute.

According to the information she had, Su Zimo’s judgment was completely right!

Feng Cantian escaped. At the Immortal Sect Selection, the Execution Guards suffered immense losses and could not capture Su Zimo. In the fight for the Earth Ranking, they returned in defeat once more, causing the Great Jin Immortal Kingdom to lose all face.

On Great Tie Wei Mountain, Yuan Zuo’s final gambit and the combined forces of many factions were still mostly killed by Su Zimo.

The few failures caused a huge loss to the reputation of the Great Jin Immortal Kingdom and turned Yuan Zuo into a joke of the Great Jin Immortal Kingdom.

Su Zimo said, “Therefore, there won’t be any Perfected Immortal experts presiding over Absolute Thunder City!”

Back then, the reason why Prince Yuan Zuo was able to invite Perfected Immortal Jing Yue out of seclusion during the encirclement on Great Tie Wei Mountain was because he was once the Prince of Green Cloud County. As for Perfected Immortal Jing Yue, he was the Green Cloud County Governor and the two of them had some ties.

However, things were different now.

Yun Zhu nodded slightly. She agreed that there would not be any Perfected Immortal experts in Absolute Thunder City.

Su Zimo continued, “What happened today will spread to Yuan Zuo’s ears soon. He will know about my cultivation realm. However, he will definitely not expect that I will head to the Great Jin Immortal Kingdom and kill my way into Absolute Thunder City to take his life!”

“He won’t be the only one. I’m afraid nobody will expect this.” Yun Zhu sighed.

If Su Zimo had not asked that question earlier on, even she would not have thought that he would dare to do such a shocking thing!

Su Zimo said, “The Dao of assassination emphasizes on the element of surprise. The more unexpected it is, the higher the chance of success! Right now is the best opportunity to kill Yuan Zuo!”

Suddenly, Yun Zhu realized that Su Zimo did not make this decision on impulse. Instead, he had thought it through and planned everything.

His intention to kill Yuan Zuo through assassination was not only as payback for Perfected Immortal Burial Night.

Yun Zhu thought for a long time but was still worried. She shook her head. “If you can cultivate to become a Grade 8 or Grade 9 Heaven Immortal, I won’t stop you. I’m afraid no one among the Heaven Immortals will be your match.”

“However, you’re only a Grade 6 Heaven Immortal right now. There’s a difference of three minor cultivation realms between you and a Grade 9 Heaven Immortal. Even if you fight Yuan Zuo one-on-one, you probably won’t stand a chance of winning, let alone assassinate him in Absolute Thunder City that is heavily guarded and filled with experts.”

“Yuan Zuo is not weak. Right now, he’s Rank 98 on the Heaven Ranking Prediction. Your Hell Suppression Tripod is not with you right now as well.”

Su Zimo smiled. “If I really cultivate to the realm of a Grade 8 or Grade 9 Heaven Immortal, I probably won’t have a chance to assassinate Yuan Zuo.”

Yun Zhu was sharp and intelligent. With a single thought, she understood what Su Zimo was implying.

If she was Prince Yuan Zuo and heard that Su Zimo had cultivated to become a Grade 9 Heaven Immortal, she would definitely be careful and not leave the territory of the Great Jin Immortal Kingdom.

Furthermore, she would be even more guarded and would not expose her tracks easily. In fact, she might even design some traps to kill Su Zimo instead!

But now that she knew that Su Zimo was only a Grade 6 Heaven Immortal, she would definitely not be bothered.

Who would expect a Grade 6 Heaven Immortal to head to Absolute Thunder City of Great Jin Immortal Kingdom to assassinate a Grade 9 Heaven Immortal prince who was on the Heaven Ranking Prediction?

This plan was way too bold!

This was destined to be a shocking assassination attempt!

If he succeeded, who knew how much of a stir it would cause in the Divine Firmament Immortal Domain!

“You’ve hunted me for so long. It’s time to end this.”

Su Zimo lowered his head slightly and murmured with a cold killing intent in his eyes!

Actually, the reason why he chose to assassinate Prince Yuan Zuo was not only to take revenge for Perfected Immortal Burial Night, but also for himself!

Up till this point of his ascension, he had not been able to break free from the pursuit of Prince Yuan Zuo and had barely escaped death countless times.

However, he was not strong enough and could not retaliate.

Since he was prepared to attack today, he would not give Yuan Zuo any chance to turn the tides!

Furthermore, he wanted to kill his way into Yuan Zuo’s territory and give the other party a huge surprise!

There was another important thing that had been on Su Zimo’s mind all these years.

He wanted to find out how Prince Yuan Zuo knew that he was taking part in the Immortal Sect Selection as well as how the latter recognized his disguise!
