After few moments the black mist forms again at the same place where the assassin attire was standing before and he reappears making sure that the black cloth person has already left.
Sigh... It's truly hard to fool a dou haung level person not to mention when that person is Medusa.
Yeah that's right the black cloth person was non other then the infamous queen Medusa famous for her ruthlessness , who is now looking for her sister dieba no one knows that queen Medusa have a twin sister but how can he not know when he is a traveler from blue planet.
Aka death reaper widely known for his assassinations skill and 100% complete task guarantee. When he said to Medusa that he haven't failed any task he wasn't lying he had never fail a task before.
He had a notorious reputation for joining any association for better benefits he has fake death many times in order to escape the associations he had previously worked for. There wasn't a line he wouldn't cross for his own benefits he had destroyed the same association he had worked for and killed his comrades in arms even his disciples.
Some called him scum with no morals some call him cold blooded for all and all he didn't care cause he knows in this kind of field there was only one rule kill or be killed so he just kept on killing doesn't matter who they were he just killed them.
He was a true assassin with no emotion a perfect killing machine but he lives for himself only, a true selfish person,he can't even count the associations he had destroyed because they tried to control him.
There is a saying,
"The most dangerous creation of any society is the man who has nothing to lose"
So never mess with a person who has nothing to lose
However no matter how strong or genius a person is they can never win against nature and it's rules.
Same happened to him as well at the age of 60 he came to a realization that he no longer have the same skills he had years ago and can't perform like he used to so he decided to settle down.
Being an assassin changing identities was his specialty so to settle down he picked a 65 years old rich man with a family and took his place now some might thing it's too dangerous as there are many loopholes and being so high profile might get you caught but not for him he has learned one thing in his 60 years of life that the most dangerous place is the most safest. And that exactly what he was doing.
Besides he was the master of identities he can act like anyone he copy their hobbies and unconscious actions so well that no one can ever tell that he was personating someone.
He spent the rest to his life in luxury being lazy all day he doesn't need to worry about anything at all who could have thought the infamous reaper know for his ruthlessness will become such idle person. He spends most of his time in reading books novels anything he can get and from that's where he got to know about this world.
He died at 85 he was satisfied with his life he thought he might go to hell for all he had done heaven was out of question .
but to his surprise he woke up in the body of a young man a lackey who works for soul Hall tasked for collecting the souls a peak of dou ling powerhouse but for soul Hall he was just a tool man. But he wasn't the same loyal dog of soul Hall now he was reaper instead of completing the task he decided to increase his strength.
He knows about the future of soul Hall so instead of returning to soul Hall he decided to absorb all the souls he has collected till now which he was going to return to soul Hall.
Escaping from soul Hall is not an easy task no one can say it's impossible because soul Hall brands the soul directly if someone even had slightes idea of betraying or even thing bad about soul Hall he will experience the excruciating pain but for reaper it wasn't a problem cause the soul has already been replaced by his and he had no branding on his soul.
Soul Hall will think he just died out there and won't care too much about it after all he was just a tool man for them and they had thousands of like him under them.
For two whole years reaper tried to increase his strength and was finally able to get to dou haung level he absorbed all the souls he collected search for every treasure he can get even killed many dou wang and dou ling powerhouse to absorb their souls.
And finally in two years he had managed to reach dou haung level . Although he had to be really careful not to arouse any suspicion of soul Hall or get discovered by other powerhouse but hiding in shadows and hunting like a predator was his forte and being from soul Hall which specializes in blending with shadows and hiding it was a breeze for him however he didn't want to arouse any suspicion after all dou wang level powerhouse were not that common if some tries to track and find out that someone was hunting down dou waung level powerhouse will bring him trouble not to mention unwanted attention.
He didn't want to alert his preys not to mention the soul Hall if they this Matter gets their attention he is finished. He knows he can't confront them now it's only a fool's errand and he knows the true strength of soul Hall and their unusual techniques better not mess with them. Protagonist is enough for that.
Finally he had reach 8 star dou haung that's why he dares to reach to Medusa and make a deal with her. His confidence comes from his cultivation level and he knows Medusa very well. He knew she tried to see through him but he was a reaper a hunter who hides in shadows he hid his cultivation very well from her after all unknown is always dangerous and besides she will be thinking of killing him afterwards.
But he is not so easy to foul he knows her hatred towards human race and knows her too well. He is just doing what he does best waiting for his prey to take the bait.
