Douluo Continent II: The Peerless Tang Sect: I, Huo Yuhao, join the Sun Moon Sect.

Chapter 167 Someone actually wants to make a move against Horta?
Moreover, she had already lost a child due to Xuanzi's negligence and was feeling depressed, but Dai Hao didn't come to care about her. Instead, he went to visit a dead person's grave.

Zhao Dashan looked at the Duchess and thought to himself, "Wasn't it you who forced Huo Yuhao to go to the Sun Moon Empire?"
Otherwise, they can't just stay in Xingluo and be oppressed forever, can they?
Life will always find its way.

Of course, he only dared to think these things in his heart and would never dare to say them to the Duchess's face.

After all, the Duchess has a bad temper, and if I say something wrong, I will definitely be punished by the Duchess.

He came here to reap the benefits, not to be punished.

The Duchess waved her hand: "Go down. This information is worth a Mystic Soul Bone. Take this token and go to the steward to collect your reward."

As she spoke, she directly tossed out a token.

Zhao Dashan's face lit up with joy, and he quickly accepted the token, saying, "Thank you, Madam."

After saying that, he took the token and left quickly.

At this moment, the Duchess looked at the old man beside her and asked, "Zhang Tieshan, if I asked you to assassinate Huo Yuhao now, how confident are you?"

In her opinion, if Huo Yuhao hadn't exposed his relationship with Huo Yun'er during the Soul Fighting Tournament, her relationship with Dai Hao would never have deteriorated to this point.

The fault lies entirely with Huo Yun'er and her son Huo Yuhao.

Moreover, given Huo Yuhao's current personality, he will inevitably seek revenge later.

Rather than letting the other person grow unchecked, it's better to deal with them sooner rather than later.

The old man named Zhang Tieshan was stunned. He thought to himself, "Me, assassinate Huo Yuhao? Duchess, are you kidding me?"
He is now a genius of the Sun Moon Empire, and will surely be carefully protected by the Sun Moon Empire.

Therefore, if one wants to assassinate Huo Yuhao, the only option is to take advantage of the chaos.

The problem is that Mingdetang's situation is very stable, and there's no opportunity for them to take advantage of the chaos.

Furthermore, assassinations are generally carried out by highly skilled individuals.

He was just a Soul Douluo-level guard, not a Limit Douluo.

Protecting the Duchess was fulfilling his duty, but traveling to the Sun and Moon Realm to kill Huo Yuhao seemed to have exceeded the scope of his responsibilities.

He pondered for a moment and said, "The chances are less than 10%."

"Less than 10%?" The Duchess's face darkened.

Zhang Tieshan began to patiently explain: "That's right. In terms of personal strength, I completely crush Huo Yuhao because I am a Soul Douluo, much stronger than him."

But I never had a chance to be alone with Huo Yuhao.

"If I went to the Sun Moon Sect and attacked Huo Yuhao, I'd probably be killed by other powerful figures before I could even kill him."

"If you can't do it alone, then go and gather some helpers!"
"Remember, no matter the cost, I will kill Huo Yuhao!" The Duchess's expression was somewhat ferocious.

"Yes, sir." Zhang Tieshan replied somewhat helplessly, prepared to stay in the Sun Moon Empire to keep an eye on Huo Yuhao for a long time.

For the sake of the Duchess, Zhang Tieshan immediately flew out of the Duke's mansion and headed towards a direction in Xingluo City.

In fact, there are assassin organizations in Xingluo City. Generally speaking, these assassin organizations take money and do dirty work for important figures.

The assassin organization he was going to join was called Sunrise.

Sunrise is a well-regarded assassin organization. Many nobles place orders with the organization to kill their brothers and sisters who are vying for the right to inherit the throne.

However, Sunny doesn't require any Gold Soul Coins as a reward.

They only needed living soul beasts or some rare metals unique to the Star Luo Empire, which was rather strange. Soon, Zhang Tieshan entered an auction house and quickly found the auction house owner.

The auction house owner was an obese man who was examining the map of the Star Luo Empire on the wall with an extremely serious expression.

This person is the leader of the Sun Organization, and his public name is Sun Number One.

"Sunday One, I need to gather assassins to accompany me to kill someone," Zhang Tieshan said bluntly.

Sunrise No. 1 turned around and looked at Zhang Tieshan: "Kill someone? Do you need us to deal with the illegitimate son of some noble family?"

“He’s not an illegitimate child.” Zhang Tieshan waved his hand. “He’s Huo Yuhao from Sun and Moon.”

"Oh? Huo Yuhao?" Sunrise Number One narrowed his eyes slightly. "Killing him won't be cheap, so, guest, can you afford what we need?"

"Of course I can afford it," Zhang Tieshan said in a deep voice. At the same time, eight spirit rings appeared on his body, with a configuration of two yellow, two purple, and four black rings.

Zhang Tieshan thought to himself that he wasn't a Soul Master, so how could he possibly carry rare metals on his person? Besides, it would take time to summon living Soul Beasts.

Therefore, he can only demonstrate his strength to enhance the persuasiveness of his words.

"Sunday One, I'm just a messenger. The higher-ups want you to do everything you can to kill Huo Yuhao. As for what you need, we'll give it to you." He implied his extraordinary background through these words.

A smile appeared on Sunny One's face: "I see. I believe you can provide what we need."

However, we need to first investigate the difficulty of assassinating Huo Yuhao and then conduct an assessment.

In seven days, we should be able to complete the survey and evaluation, at which point we will provide a price quote.

"Okay." Zhang Tieshan nodded, then quickly walked away.

As Sunny One watched Zhang Tieshan's figure disappear from sight, the smile on his face vanished instantly.

"I never expected someone would try to assassinate Tower Master Huo. It seems I need to investigate this person's background and then tell Tower Master Huo so he can make the decision." Thoughts churned in Sunrise One's mind.

The so-called "Sun and Sun" actually belong to Mingde Hall and is considered a subordinate organization of Mingde Hall. Mingde Hall is nominally one of the three major forces in Douluo Continent, so it is normal for it to have some subordinate organizations.

Sun and Sun are primarily responsible for collecting rare metals, soul beasts, and intelligence; their identity as an assassin organization is merely a cover.

As for Sunny Number One, he is now also a member of the Spirit Pagoda. He has already disguised himself, so he is naturally not afraid of outsiders recognizing his true appearance.

Soul fighting field.

Ji Juechen stood in the center of the arena, holding a long sword. He looked calmly at Meng Hongchen and the others not far away and asked, "Miss Meng, when will Huo Yuhao come to the Soul Arena?"

Today is the day he and I agreed upon, and I'm really looking forward to our battle.

A smile appeared on Meng Hongchen's face: "Ji Juechen, I hope you can be a little more patient. As far as I know, Junior Brother Yuhao has been quite busy these days."

Perhaps he's busy conquering soul tools right now. Besides, you only agreed on a certain day for the battle, not a specific time of day.

"Alright, then I'll wait for him here." Ji Juechen was indeed very patient, and his face did not show the slightest impatience.

After a while, Huo Yuhao appeared in the air. He quickly landed on the ground and put away his flying soul tool.

He looked at Ji Juechen not far away: "Ji Juechen, when did you arrive?"

He was just studying soul tools with Xuan Ziwen, but because he was going to fight Ji Juechen today, he left the laboratory after a while.

Ji Juechen stared at Huo Yuhao: "That's not important. Huo Yuhao, the most important thing is that we have a fight!"
