, and Lin Yuetian calmly hid him in the warehouse. 

After finishing his burglary action, he went back to inspect the store’s interior.
There he saw two bright red wedding dresses, so dazzling that even a Monk would have been moved.
It’s a pity that Lin Yuetian didn’t even have any artistic bacteria, much less an innate sense to appreciate beauty.
Without blinking his eyes, he pinched his fingers, once again performing a spell, placing an incantation to the two wedding dresses. 

Changing into the store owner’s outfit, he disguised himself as the middle-aged Cultivator, perfectly imitating his presence as well.
Afterward, he leisurely walked to the front counter, and sat on the chair that the owner never even allowed his apprentices to touch.
Lastly, following the example earlier, Lin Yuetian also began to…dozing off.

Zhanfeng Sword was put in his Qiankun pouch, whilst the pouch itself was hidden in his left sleeve.
Lin Yuetian rested his chin on his right hand, seemingly dazed and slacked, however, his left arm from his fingertips upward was tensed, ready to pull out Zhanfeng Sword anytime if there was an unforeseen danger.
His eyelids were lowered, but from the tiniest crack left on his eyelid, his vision was focused on the open door.

[“Do you possibly want…” ] The system paused in hesitation.
[ “Will you directly charge at Lushui with a sword once he comes in?”]

“Why would I?” Lin Yuetian spoke inwardly.
“If I were to do that, I might as well assassinate him in the street.
The outdoors is vast, it’s easier to escape.”

After the brief talk, neither the System nor Lin Yuetian was keen to continue the conversation.
The System could see that Lin Yuetian seemed to have entered another state.
He didn’t dare to disturb, and he could only pray fervently for the task not to develop in an outrageous direction. 

Time passed, and afternoon had come.

The Sun gradually tilted to the west. Finally, around the time when the shadow began to elongate once again, an immaculate boot stepped in on the store’s threshold. 

“The target is here.” Lin Yuetian informed the System in his mind.

Lushui Xianjun had appeared! His appearance was graceful as refined as the moon above.
He was dressed in brocade robes embellished with pearls hanging from his waist.
His very being was imposing and his every gesture was full of arrogance. 

In the original body’s memories, Lushui Xianjun was indeed such a person.
He was confident, or perhaps too confident, to never bring any subordinates or guards.
It’s not surprising actually, since his cultivation base in the Spirit Transformation allowed him to do so.

But this confidence would also lead him to a bad consequences today…


Lin Yuetian pretended to be just waking up from a dream.
He stood up while stifling a yawn, imitating the owner’s tone to greet Lushui enthusiastically, 

“Oh my, welcome, Xianjun!”

Lushui snorted softly in reply.
“The last time I visited, you promised that the wedding dress will be ready today.
Do you hold your promise well?”

“That goes without saying! Goodness me, where’s my manner? I haven’t congratulated Xianjun yet!” While talking exaggeratedly with his hands’ gesture, Lin Yuetian sneakily pointed lightly to the door, applying a sound insulation spell.
He was 2 realms above Lushui Xianjun‘s cultivation base, his off-handed move wasn’t noticed at all.

“The wedding dress is stored in the inner room.
Please,” Lin Yuetian respectfully invited him.

Lushui Xianjun walked to the inner chamber with his head held high.
Inside, he finally saw the finished version of the 2 wedding dresses and a look of satisfaction visibly appeared on his face.

“Your handiwork really lives up to your reputation.”

Lin Yuetian who stood behind him suddenly suggested, “Would Xianjun like to try and see the final look?” He pointed to a water mirror next to him and continued to say, “For things like wedding dresses, it is necessary to fit both in body and heart.
How about Xianjun try it on and see if it is to your heart’s liking?”

“That sounds good.” Lushui nodded slightly. 

He pointed his two fingers to one of the wedding dresses.
The chosen dress flew out enveloped with spiritual energy, glowing like a warm sunset.
In a blink of an eye, the dress had automatically been put on Lushui Xianjun’s body.

Lin Yuetian bowed his body slightly and went behind Lushui to tidy up the wedding dress.
Lushui naturally turned his body away to face the water mirror and checked his current appearance.
His eyes showed how much excitement he had after obtaining everything he desired. 

He didn’t, and would never regret everything he had done to get to this point, including framing Lin Yuetian.
It was in fact, the last thing he could ever regret.
He knew that as long as Lin Yuetian was alive and well, Shaofeng Xianjun would still put that man in his mind. 

He took a deep breath and slowly exhaled.
A smile was unfurling on the corner of his lip.

“It really fits-,”


His words were cut-off, and his smile couldn’t help but freeze on his face.

Lin Yuetian still had his head lowered, quietly standing behind Lushui Xianjun.
The Zhanfeng Sword’s hilt appeared in his left hand, whilst the sword blade was currently pierced upward through Lushui Xianjun’s back waist. 

“Don’t be flustered.
My sword is expeditious, it shouldn’t hurt too much.” Lin Yuetian said in a gentle tone, saying his usual lines. 

“What goes around comes around.
I am just an assassin hired by other people.
If you want to complain, you can try to think about who my employer is.
If the world has a chance of reviving from death then you can also ask me to deal with your enemies.
Anyway, your grievance has nothing to do with me.” He spoke swiftly with a soft voice and tender tone. 

Obviously, Lushui was still alive in front of him, but in his mouth, it was as if what Lin Yuetian did was appeasing the dead. 

This wedding dress contained a spell Lin Yuetian had put on both dresses earlier.
It could ban any fluctuation of spiritual energy and prevent any large movements.
Lin Yuetian actually didn’t expect things to turn out simply as it is.
Surely it shouldn’t because the gap in IQ between people was too big, right? 

Or else, the original body who was schemed to death by a person with this IQ level, how foolish would he be-,

Lin Yuetian hurriedly shook his head. ‘Bah, I’ve sinned! Sorry for the offense, I should not speak ill of the deceased!’
