Chapter 553: Reward Warrant

Reward Warrant . . .

Minister Li stepped forward with solemnity, determination etched across his face. He addressed the king directly, "If we fail to apprehend any guilty individuals, I will consider it a personal failure in my duty to Your Majesty."

His words carried the weight of an unbreakable pledge, affirming his unwavering allegiance to the king and his commitment to the decree.

The king\'s nod conveyed a chilling resolve. It was clear that he was prepared to rid the world of brothels himself. The decree he had issued was merely the initial step in his ambitious plan.

In the king\'s eyes, the eradication of prostitution was the first step in cleansing the world of its vices. He understood that such an endeavor would necessitate global influence and authority. Even if he succeeded in banning all brothels in the Kingdom of Chen, numerous establishments would continue to operate in other kingdoms, potentially undermining his own kingdom\'s standing.

Within the royal house, the king\'s anger remained unabated.

Meanwhile, Ling-Bao Hall stood empty. The assassins were dispatched on missions, with a significant number heading to the Kingdom of Lan-Feng and the Kingdom of Tian-Yu. Their objective was clear: the annihilation of every Voluptuous Flower Building.

Even though Second Prince had displayed a genius for running the entertainment business, he had squandered his potential by concentrating solely on financial gain. If he had directed his talents and resources toward benefiting the kingdom, he could have been a formidable contender for the throne. Brothels were valuable sources of information, teeming with secrets and hidden knowledge. Unfortunately, he had misused these assets for personal enrichment, missing a golden opportunity to bolster his power.

Bing-Er, who had participated in several battles, was unrelenting and merciless. She exhibited no compassion, regardless of the pleas for mercy. Her attacks were swift, precise, and ruthlessly efficient, leaving no room for leniency. Her combat proficiency was steadily advancing, and she neared the Earth Origin Stage, level five.

Ye Xiao\'s mixed feelings arose from Bing-Er\'s rapid progress.

[She\'s improving at a much faster pace than I am. If I\'m already transcending human limitations, then she must be surpassing the heavens themselves...]

As the reward warrants prepared by Boss Wan were delayed by Feng Monarch\'s sudden outburst, the martial world grew increasingly restless. The martial world\'s assassins, who cared little for Feng Monarch\'s fierceness, yearned to seize the opportunity to claim their bounties. With the delay, however, they refrained from causing trouble.

Finally, on the fifth day, Ling-Bao Hall\'s reward warrants made their long-anticipated debut in the martial world. The announcement sent shockwaves throughout the Land of Han-Yang, stirring excitement and anticipation.

The astronomical reward offered reached an astonishing five hundred billion silver. The very mention of this amount left most assassins dumbfounded.

While money could drive one to great lengths, the magnitude of this reward was unparalleled. It was, without a doubt, a monumental sum.

The warrant\'s title was simple and chilling: "Five Hundred Billion Silver; A tooth for a tooth, an eye for an eye!"

A comprehensive list containing a staggering seven thousand and eight hundred names accompanied the warrants. These names ranged from members of the world\'s royal houses to the noble-born families that had contributed to the bounty on Feng Monarch\'s life.

The number of names on the list was substantial, given that they represented human lives. However, in the context of the two kingdoms\' population and the staggering bounties outlined in the reward warrants, this list seemed relatively modest.

Each name came with a specific price tag, creating a scale of values for the targets. The prices ranged from a modest five million silver to a jaw-dropping three hundred million silver.

It was an amount that could only be described as astronomical. In response to this windfall, the martial world was in a frenzy of excitement. While some considered Ling-Bao Hall\'s offer to be absurdly generous, others recognized the institution\'s unwavering commitment to upholding its reputation.

There was no doubt that the martial world was buzzing with anticipation. Assassins, whether renowned experts or lesser-known figures, embarked on their missions with zeal. It was a collective effort that involved both young and inexperienced individuals and seasoned masters who had remained concealed for years.

Each contract on the list had its own level of difficulty, but the prospect of substantial rewards for relatively straightforward tasks was too enticing to ignore. The financial incentives were compelling enough for anyone to contemplate retirement from their perilous profession.

Excitement filled the air as assassins voiced their enthusiasm:

"Let\'s seize this opportunity and make a fortune!"

"These bounties are unbelievably generous. Just one target on the list, and I can finally leave this dangerous life behind!"
