Chapter 1985 - 1975: You Dialed the Wrong Number
Lin Tian held an inexplicable tremor in his heart towards Gao Yang Jiajia.
At first sight of her, it seemed as if he had seen his mentor, DuanMuuu Yue!
DuanMuuu Yue, that stunningly beautiful woman from his previous life with earth-shattering strength, was the person Lin Tian valued most on his path of cultivating immortality for thousands of years!
Since childhood, he had never seen his parents.
In his eyes, DuanMuuu Yue was his closest kin!
Like a mother? Sister? Lover?
He didn’t know, but she was the person he cared about the most!
He was reborn on Earth.
Later, upon meeting Gao Yang Jiajia, he almost thought she was his mentor DuanMuuu Yue!
But Lin Tian understood that she was Gao Yang Jiajia!
No matter what, meeting this girl who resembled his mentor so closely was definitely not a coincidence!
Was it fate?
Or connections across lifetimes?
Lin Tian was filled with doubt.
At the same time, discovering that Gao Yang Jiajia was placed on an assassination list, his murderous intent began to surge uncontrollably.
"I’m giving you the last Heavenly Kill Order, tell me who or what force issued this task!"
With a cold face, Lin Tian tossed the third Heavenly Kill Order towards Dong Chen.
Yet.
Dong Chen just smiled and shook her head at Lin Tian.
Then she picked up the token and placed it back in front of Lin Tian.
"Our Tianshan Building has its own rules! As long as a guest doesn’t voluntarily disclose information, we will never reveal any of the guest’s information or even sell it! This is one of the principles we have always upheld!"
Dong Chen explained to Lin Tian: "So... the person who issued the task to assassinate Gao Yang Jiajia, I can’t tell you!"
Upon hearing this.
Lin Tian could only nod slightly.
He had long anticipated that this would be the case.
He was just trying to see if Dong Chen was willing to help.
Not to mention existence like Tianshan Building, even forces of the assassin organization nature, regardless of what task they take up or who the client is, they absolutely will not reveal their identity.
"Alright, I’ll take on this number nine task on the Heavenly list!"
Lin Tian frowned slightly, then pointed to the tablet and said.
"That won’t do! This is a Heavenly Kill Order task, once taken on, it must be completed!"
Dong Chen shook her head resolutely with a serious expression: "Since you’re a friend of Gao Yang Jiajia, you certainly won’t kill her! The task cannot be completed! Hence, you can’t take it!"
Can’t take it?
Lin Tian’s face sank, his eyes filled with a cold gleam.
This task has already been issued; presumably, many people have seen it.
If someone truly finds Gao Yang Jiajia, it would be dangerous!
"Is your Tianshan Building open to the world and anyone can query any task?"
Lin Tian asked coldly, looking at Dong Chen.
"It’s not that casual! Only those who hold the Heavenly Level Killer token can query the Heavenly list tasks! And to become a Heavenly Level Killer, one must have strong strength and complete a certain number of tasks on the Earth list and Heavenly list!"
Ignoring Lin Tian’s cold demeanor, Dong Chen cheerfully said: "However, one thing you can rest assured about is that no one has taken on this task yet! Our people have been dispatched as well but haven’t found a trace of information on Gao Yang Jiajia! So at present, she is safe, you can rest assured about that! Moreover, since you issued this task, our people will try to find Gao Yang Jiajia before the task is taken on!"
"Moreover..."
Pausing here.
Dong Chen fell silent for a while.
Then continued: "Back when Wuya Mountain was besieged and almost wiped out, most of the sect’s people managed to escape, and Gao Yang Jiajia was unharmed. Are you still worried she won’t pass through this ordeal?"
Upon hearing this.
Lin Tian’s eyes narrowed, looking at Dong Chen with eyes full of cold intent.
Even things like Wuya Mountain being besieged by several sects of the Asura Sect, Dong Chen knew all too well.
Showing that Tianshan Building is absolutely not a simple mortal force.
Its forces must have penetrated the cultivation world.
Yet Dong Chen’s words made him breathe a sigh of relief.
He became endlessly curious about Tianshan Building.
"If we have any questions that we want to inquire about here, what price must we pay?"
Lin Tian contemplated for a moment, then asked.
"It’s very simple! Money, assets, treasures, etc., even using a luxury car for collateral is fine, as long as it’s something valuable, we are willing to trade equally!"
Dong Chen explained smilingly to Lin Tian: "Feel free to ask anything at any time, this is business after all! We lack nothing but information pertaining to any moment worldwide! Even if the president of M Country at this time is on a woman’s belly, we can bring you the latest news immediately!"
Is Tianshan Building that formidable?
Lin Tian raised an eyebrow, promptly stood up and said: "I await news!"
After that, he turned around and directly walked out of the Yuan Shang Tea House.
After Lin Tian left, Dong Chen remained seated, quietly watching in the direction Lin Tian departed, lost in thought.
"Lady Dong, should we investigate?"
The woman in black beside Dong Chen asked in a low voice.
"No need! We Tianshan Building, as long as they are guests, we mustn’t break the rules! Unless someone wants to investigate him, issuing us a task!"
Dong Chen shook her head, saying: "However... Can you discern his depth?"
"This young man, in his words and actions, exhibits a terrifying mindset, remaining extraordinarily composed and calm throughout! His whole being exudes strong confidence!"
The woman in black replied to Dong Chen: "But... he is an ordinary person, with my ability, if he practiced, I would definitely spot some traces! I suspect he must have a significant background!"
To know about Wuya Mountain, he surely has a significant background!
Dong Chen smiled and nodded.
Meanwhile.
Lin Tian drove away from Yuan Shang Tea House, preparing to find Zhou Mumu for a talk.
The two had shared an encounter.
Lin Tian also accepted... at least in his heart accepted Zhou Mumu’s existence.
Whether she could keep pace with him, was not within his control.
The matter with Qin Yuegu was merely a drama transaction, he still opted to clarify!
Picking up his mobile phone, Lin Tian directly dialed the number he obtained from Zhou Mumu’s brother, Zhou Halong.
It took several attempts before the call was finally answered.
"Hello, who is this? I’m busy here, is it urgent?"
On the other end, Zhou Mumu’s voice sounded slightly weary.
"Mumu... it’s me!"
Lin Tian remained silent for a moment before softly speaking.
On the opposite end.
Zhou Mumu on the other end also fell silent, she recognized Lin Tian’s voice.
"Sorry, you dialed the wrong number!"
After a long pause, Zhou Mumu’s voice suddenly turned indifferent, replying with a sentence, then clicked off the call.
This...
Lin Tian sighed, feeling somewhat apologetic in his heart.
Then he dialed again.
But subsequently, Zhou Mumu ceased answering his calls.
Eventually, the other end kept sending automated replies that the user he dialed was in conversation, to try again later.
"Blocked me?"
Lin Tian’s forehead was covered in black lines, feeling quite speechless.
The call couldn’t connect, how to find people!
