I Can Gain One Skill Point Per Second

Chapter 791: Profiting Together: Collusion Without Limits

Being a hitman for someone, well, Lin Yi and Xiyue were doing it for the first time.

The tasks they executed on Blue Star before were all randomly generated by Lin Yi’s strength task system, not for personal gain.

But now, being a hitman feels quite strange indeed.

”Should we really do it?”

Xiyue couldn’t help but ask.

Normally, Xiyue shouldn’t have any hesitation when dealing with people from other planets.

Yet now, Xiyue couldn’t help but feel sympathy for the targets she was about to take action against.

There was no choice. Thinking about the group of people who were about to die by her hand, Xiyue couldn’t help but relate to being trapped in Antebellum Canyon herself.

On the surface, a glorious War God and high-level professionals, actually abandoned long ago for the sake of interests.

Aren’t these people also sacrifices for some people’s interests?

”Seems like there’s only this path. If we don’t do this, how will we get the information we want? Without locking down specific names, we can’t get the production materials.”

In the space channel, the turbulence roared, the atmosphere was somewhat heavy.

When Lin Yi and Xiyue left the space channel, what appeared before them was a place very similar to the environment on Bisite Planet.

Being newcomers, Lin Yi chose not to stand out, using an observation robot to lock onto two ordinary people’s positions and power fluctuations, then quickly using the Seventy-Two Transformations to transform himself and Xiyue into their appearances.

After fixing everything, the two walked into a territory on this planet called Changqing City with ease.

Compared to the roughness and violence of Sebit Planet, the people here were more gentle.

Most of the pedestrians on the road wore simple clothes, and there wasn’t much chaotic fighting in the streets.

But among the crowds, almost everyone wore a fake smile, so in terms of atmosphere, it wasn’t necessarily better than Sebit Planet.

Using his Truth Law, Lin Yi quickly locked onto a scumbag in the crowd, then attracted him to a secluded place with Xiyue’s beauty, after which Xiyue struck him down with a single blow.

As for Lin Yi, he used the Touch of Reincarnation method to read the enemy’s memory.

The targets to be assassinated this time were three in total.

They were high-ranking officials in Scott Country on Aiven Planet: He Li, Wang Tong, and Luo Xia.

If broken down according to Blue Star’s professional level, all three had reached War God level.

The three were each the lord of a city, and though they couldn’t be said to have contributed greatly to their respective cities, at least they didn’t harm ordinary citizens.

Unlike those who only seek profit, they disdain being corrupt and have always strived to gain more benefits for ordinary citizens while ensuring their own interests, hence, they’ve touched the cake of those despicable people and been targeted by them.

The despicable ones, too, are paradoxically prominent figures.

To avoid angering the public and to extract as many benefits from the bottom people as possible, these people often choose to kill by borrowing someone else’s knife.

There are unilateral channels between planets.

This, Lin Yi knows very well.

To conveniently eliminate those obstructing interests, despicable people would hand the dirty work to their allied planets.

Yes, by looking at the task list, Lin Yi can easily infer one thing.

Such a style of doing things openly as a private fighter arena while secretly doing otherwise is definitely not unique to Bisite Planet.

The presence of Lin Yi and Xiyue here on Aiven Planet is the best testament to that.

Who knows who’s behind these people?

But the fact that people from different planets can unite for the same goal and collude proves that there must be a stronger power behind them orchestrating things.

As for their exact purpose for gathering together, Lin Yi is currently unclear.

Since the three targets were public figures, locking down their locations wasn’t too difficult.

Lin Yi deployed his Light and Shadow Mark at two places where the targets were located beforehand, then proceeded to another place unmarked to strike at the target.

Xiyue went to one of the marked places.

Inside the City Lord’s mansion of Changqing City.

City Lord He Li was dealing with recent official duties, as a freshly dressed and graceful woman paced around him, assisting in processing documents.

”City Lord, if there are no issues with these documents, I’ll put them all away. It’s about time for you to eat, and the lady will soon be coming to urge you.”

The composed middle-aged man sat in a chair, stretched out lazily, and yawned.

”This position is truly uncomfortable, no wonder the predecessor had such grievances. You know, with my strength, I should be on the battlefield fighting, not focused on these boring clerical tasks.”

The woman beside him smiled faintly and replied smartly.

”City Lord, many of these decisions can only be made by you, correct? If you really feel bored, Xinyan will write a letter in your name to those old folks up there, so you can take your family out on a trip next time. How does that sound?”

Listening to his secretary’s proposal, He Li agreed with a nod.

Yeah, he indeed should spend more time with his family. His child is almost six years old, but he’s hardly been involved in the child’s childhood, and his relationship with his child is gradually becoming indifferent, which isn’t good.

Just as He Li was planning to solve the eating issue, a young man with no aura fluctuations appeared in front of him and his secretary.

Although the City Lord’s mansion was big, the guard was quite strict.

He knew that his refusal to collude with those people would certainly anger them, so he was meticulous in terms of personal and family safety.

Today, a young man unexpectedly managed to get in, and He Li’s heart immediately filled with an ominous feeling.

”Who are you? Why do you excel in entering my mansion? Don’t you know I’m the city lord?”

Believing that even if it comes to a confrontation, he should figure things out first, He Li didn’t rush to take action but asked instead.

”’Tight defense,’ indeed, but to me, your mansion’s like an unguarded place.”

”By the way, do you want to die painlessly or be brutally tortured? Make your choice.”

Lin Yi finished speaking and spread out his hands.

On his left hand burned the Destruction Law, capable of annihilating everything, and on his right hand burned the Reincarnation Law, seemingly eerie to outsiders.

Such a young age, and he had already mastered dual laws? And both were Supreme Laws!

The application and efficacy of laws were evident not just on Blue Star, but on other planets as well.

For Aiven Planet, which was far superior to Blue Star, mastering Supreme Laws wasn’t a particularly remarkable feat, but mastering dual laws at twenty years old, both reaching Harmonization Level, was something amazing.

Along with the shock on his face, He Li also didn’t conceal his admiration for Lin Yi.

”Young man, your strength is impressive, but you must know, what you’re excelling at today is the City Lord’s manor! Killing me won’t be easy!”
