"Humph! They're most likely going to kill me."

Sneering as he said those words, Yang Shen imagined a scene where they wouldn't even be able to find the house he lived in.

After all, before Yang Shen took over this body, his predecessor always kept to himself due to which not even his neighbours knew his name.

As for the ones who he worked with when picking wild herbs outside the city, they didn't live close to him due to which it was destined to be hard for those from the Hao Clan and the Song Clan to find out where he lived.

At the same time, Yang Shen began wondering why he only received a mission to destroy the Hao Clan, and not the Song Clan as well.

Was it maybe because things hadn't crossed the stage of being considered as irrevocable between him and the Song Clan?

'Well, who knows. As long as no one from the Song Clan tries to make trouble for me, I can just forget about them. Consider this as my way of repaying you for giving me this body, dumba.s.s.'

Waiting for a while after the group of people left, Yang Shen began approaching the tall walls under the cover of the night's darkness.

Given how costly it was to inscribe the arrays that emitted a great amount of light, even a clan as strong and wealthy as the Hao Clan couldn't afford placing them all over their perimeter wall and light them up.

At the same time, due to how there was almost no one who dared attack it, the Hao Clan wasn't really worried about intruders either.

Having continuously watched the estate from the outside during the evening, Yang Shen by now had a rough understanding of the members who patrolled it.

Lazy and careless.

Those were the words which perfectly described the men who patrolled the perimeter of the Hao Clan's estate.

After all, why wouldn't they be lazy and careless? As far as they were considered, they were only there for a show of power and status. Nothing more, nothing less.

Hiding around one corner of the rectangular perimeter, Yang Shen felt that if what he observed and calculated wasn't wrong, the three men who walked around with huge spears in their arms would arrive soon enough.

Therefore, he quickly withdrew his weapon, the Giant Wolf's Fang from his inventory and got ready to eliminate them quickly and without causing a commotion.

"Sigh… This really is one boring job."

"Humph! If not because no one wanted this job, do you think people like us could obtain the chance to work for the clan so easily? If it was not this job, we would've been forced to go some backward towns and protect the Clan's shops and business there."

Thud...Thud...Thud...

With the voices arriving first, and then the sound of their footsteps, Yang Shen finally noticed long shadows because the moon was behind the humans who were walking his way.

Gulping hard due to slight anxiety he was feeling from knowing what he was about to do, Yang Shen took a step away from the corner to obtain enough s.p.a.ce to swing his greatsword.

Holding the Giant Wolf's Fang vertically and drawing the hand holding it back to build up power, Yang Shen began counting down as the sound of the guards' feet grew louder.

3….2….1…. NOW!

Timing the movement he swung his sword to be perfect after looking towards the shadows of the approaching guards in front of him, the greatsword in Yang Shen's hands whizzed through the air and arrived in front of the unsuspecting clan members.

Given that they were holding onto ordinary Level 1 Artifacts, the Giant Wolf's Fang which was a Level 4 Artifact faced zero trouble as it cut through them as if they were made of b.u.t.ter.

Adding on the power behind the greatsword, not only did the sharp blade break through the weapons but it also severed the three guards into two pieces.

"UGhuumm…"

Hastily covering his mouth, Yang Shen desperately held back and didn't vomit his lunch all over the floor.

Killing three people didn't make Yang Shen feel bad in any way. It was the huge amount of mangled flesh and blood that spilt onto him when he cut them that caused discomfort to Yang Shen's stomach.

Looking towards the three corpses who were split into two pieces, and the various organs that littered the floor because he had cut them at their chests, Yang Shen who killed someone for the first time ever showed a little excitement as three notifications arrived Lecherous Cultivation System/

[Killed a cultivator in the Bone Forging Realm. Obtained 400 XP.]

[Killed a cultivator in the Bone Forging Realm. Obtained 400 XP.]

[Killed a cultivator in the Dantian Opening Realm. Obtained 500 XP.]

Reading the notifications, Yang Shen's nauesousness was replaced with excitement due to which he ignored the gruesome scene in front of him.

Now that he took care of the three men who patrolled the outer compound, it was time to kill the guards who were positioned at all of the entrances.

"I counted ten men guarding the five entrances. If all of them are at least in the Bone Forging Realm, I'll obtain at least 4,000 XP!"
