The Faceless People, the number one assassin organization in the East Continent, possess significant power even within other Territories.

They also have a branch in the Northern Continent.

Over the years, as they have expanded, the Faceless People’s power has gradually extended to the Northern Continent, Southern Continent, and Western Continent, but they have no sub-branch in the Central Holy Nation.

The Faceless People are like a transfer station for assassins!

Warriors on the Barbaric Ancient Continent who want to assassinate someone can post a bounty through the Faceless People, and if an assassin takes interest, they can claim the bounty order from the Faceless People.

After the assassin kills the target and brings back the victim’s head or the item required by the client, they can find the manager of the Faceless People, who will then pay the commission.

If the client needs to appoint a specific assassin, they must negotiate with the assassin, and the Faceless People will arrange a meeting between the assassin and the client to discuss the price.

When a client designates an assassin for the task, the skill and reputation of that assassin are immense. For example, employing the likes of the Seven Sword Immortals or the Heavenly Wolf Assassination Team for a single kill demands an incalculable commission.

This time, the East Continent of Kunxu did not issue a chase against Lin Bai through the Faceless People. Instead, they declared a bounty for Lin Bai to all warriors under heaven.

Anyone who kills Lin Bai and takes his head to Kunxu would receive two billion spirit liquid, a King-level Spiritual Artifact, and an Emperor-level Spiritual Tool. Such a generous reward naturally spurred the agents of the Faceless People to action.

Lin Bai thus naturally found himself on the Faceless People’s Bounty Rankings.

Moreover, Lin Bai’s ranking on the Bounty Rankings was high, within the top ten!

This was why so many assassins were driven to madly hunt down Lin Bai!

Because during the chaos in the East Continent and with so many Wending Realm strong ones around Lin Bai, the assassins from the Faceless People did not act against him. But now, as Lin Bai left the East Continent and ventured alone to the Northern Continent, it presented a perfect opportunity for the assassins!

The Soul-Stealing Thirteen is a medium-sized assassin team within the Faceless People. They have assassinated many strong ones and Tianjiao before, but their reputation is not as resounding as the Seven Sword Immortals or the Heavenly Wolf Assassination Team!

Therefore, they also want a share of Lin Bai’s rich commission.

Since the great battle in the Jianghai Region ended, the Soul-Stealing Thirteen had been trailing Lin Bai. Until Lin Bai left the East Continent Academy and traveled alone to the Northern Continent, they followed closely behind!

Now, they finally found a suitable opportunity.

They planned to take action!

Atop the mountain, Lin Bai sat cross-legged, eyes closed, resting.

Suddenly, at this moment, Lin Bai opened his eyes, looked around, and said with a cold smile: "I thought they would wait a little longer, but it seems they couldn’t hold back anymore?"

Lin Bai’s lips curled into a cold smile.

How could Lin Bai not have noticed these people following him for so long?

However, since they had only been tailing him from a distance, Lin Bai had avoided conflict, but if they intended to strike now, he wouldn’t mind killing them!

Just then, three black arrows broke through the air, aiming directly at Lin Bai’s head, heart, and throat.

Lin Bai, who was sitting cross-legged, immediately flipped and stood up, grabbing the Blackwood Scabbard in his hand, coldly eyeing the front as he dodged the three arrows.

Rumble——

Subsequently, around the mountain where Lin Bai stood, a light curtain rose from the ground, enveloping Lin Bai and the entire mountain within it.

At the same time, seven warriors slowly approached Lin Bai.

Lin Bai looked at the seven, smiling: "You are well-prepared, aren’t you?"

The Soul Snatcher Leader laughed: "To deal with the Saint of the East Continent Academy, one must be very cautious!"

Lin Bai watched the seven warriors, each wearing a faceless mask, and immediately said coldly: "Faceless People’s assassins?"

The Soul Snatcher Leader replied coldly: "Faceless People assassins, assassination team, Soul-Stealing Thirteen, we have met the Saint of the East Continent Academy, today Saint Lin Bai meets us, you need not resist anymore, just surrender your head!"

Lin Bai looked at the seven warriors in front of him, all possessing cultivation of Death Reversal Realm Great Perfection, and sensed other warriors lurking in the dark.

Lin Bai smiled: "Are you planning a direct frontal assault with seven? And three hiding in the shadows are planning to ambush me, while three on the periphery plan to attack me from a distance?"

"I must say, your assassination team indeed has a clearly defined division of labor!"

"I believe many warriors have died at your hands before me!"

The Soul Snatcher Leader laughed: "Exactly, our Soul-Stealing Thirteen have taken up one hundred and fifty cases, not one mishandled, from princes of dynasties to Tianjiao disciples of major sects, even inner disciples of the East Continent Academy, we have assassinated them!"

"But today is different!"

"After we kill you, our name, the Soul-Stealing Thirteen, will surely resound under heaven!"

"The Saint of the East Continent Academy dying by our hands will be a supreme honor for us!"

The Soul Snatcher Leader spoke fanatically. 𝘧𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃ℴ𝓋𝑒𝑙.𝑐𝘰𝑚

As an assassin, the Soul Snatcher Leader knows all too well how important reputation is!

Lin Bai heard these words and smiled with pursed lips: "I’ve come all this way, and countless warriors have wished to step on my head to climb higher, yet they all met the same end..."

"They all had to die!"

"Today, I can make a bet with you all, too!"

"I bet you won’t kill me today!"

The Soul Snatcher Leader laughed: "That remains to be seen. We have sealed this place using a Magic Circle, even if Saint Lin Bai has boundless power, it would take half an hour to break the formation!"

"This half an hour is more than enough for us to kill you!"

Lin Bai smiled: "Then go ahead and try!"

The Soul Snatcher Leader’s expression hardened, and he said coldly: "Take action!"

Shua! Shua! Shua!

As soon as the Soul Snatcher Leader’s voice fell, three shadows flew towards Lin Bai simultaneously from behind, left, and right, wielding sharp weapons, lashing out ferociously.

These were the very three that Lin Bai had mentioned earlier, lying in wait to ambush him!

Lin Bai had already noticed them, and his figure flickered instantly, evading the assault!

At the same time, the Soul Snatcher Leader also coldly said: "Let’s attack as well!"

With those words, the Soul Snatcher Leader, along with the other six warriors, encircled Lin Bai from the front!

In an instant, on the distant mountain, three arrows pierced through the air towards Lin Bai’s head.

The Soul-Stealing Thirteen, advancing and retreating in an orderly fashion, with a clear division of labor, their attack forming a Heavenly Spider Web in an instant, leaving no escape for any warrior they target!

Indeed, an extremely troublesome existence!
