"Half a month ago, a Half-step King offered the heads of three Core Elders in exchange for a Longevity Pill," Yu Fei reported.
"Oh, someone made the exchange? Was it the Half-step King from the previous auction?" Lin Xuan asked.
"Yes, it's him!"
"Are there any other updates?" Lin Xuan asked again.
"Yes, although the Duan Family suffered a heavy blow, it's not enough to bring them down. Moreover, there were two assassination attempts on Young Master Ling Feng and Martial Venerate, but both failed."
Additionally, a Half-step King died at Martial Venerate's hands.
Upon hearing this news, Lin Xuan was greatly shocked.
A Half-step King is a terrifying existence, beyond the Venerable Realm; back in the day, Sword Venerate at his peak was a Half-step King.
Yet such a fierce person not only failed the assassination but was killed by Martial Venerate.
"Just how formidable is this Martial Venerate?"
Lin Xuan gasped, his eyes showing a hint of solemnity.
