Ten Wind Rain Pavilions are both a single entity and independent existences, each doing its own thing without interference usually. Of course, sometimes they also undertake tasks together.
Wind Rain Pavilion is directly controlled by the Biluo Heavenly Emperor, with no other forces having the right to intervene.
Wind Rain Pavilion has the responsibility to oversee the world and the obligation to balance worldly forces.
Moreover, and more importantly, Wind Rain Pavilion is an organization for resolving personal grudges. As long as one has money, anyone can come to Wind Rain Pavilion to place a bounty. Once they receive the payment, the Pavilion dispatches assassins to execute the task, even if it's the head of a regional lord that needs taking. However, there are times they fail too.
This is the background and power of Wind Rain Pavilion.
"The assassins of Wind Rain Pavilion will be protected. The Pavilion provides food and lodging but does not distribute gold coins or pills; assassins wishing to obtain these must accept tasks. Upon task completion, they receive corresponding rewards..." said the man in gray:
"Additionally, an assassin who enters the Great Luo Golden Immortal Realm can enter the 'Golden Immortal Ranking' based on personal strength and achievements,
The Golden Immortal Ranking is a recognized list in the Biluo Realm, with all Great Luo Golden Immortals of the Biluo Realm vying for it. Those who make it into the top hundred of the ranking receive corresponding salaries and rewards, including money, power, beauties, cultivation resources, magic treasures... anything one could ask for."
"Remember, our Wind Rain Pavilion, within the Anyang Domain, is responsible for oversight and the eradication of evil within the Anyang Domain. As for assassination activities, our operational scope is not limited to just within the Anyang Domain,
Assassination activities are free, a right granted to us by the Biluo Heavenly Emperor... except for the Biluo Heavenly Emperor, we can kill anyone..."
Having finished speaking, and seeing Wang Xiaoqiang and the other two listening intently, the man in gray asked, "Do you understand?"
Wang Xiaoqiang came to himself, nodded, "Understood."
"Good, you both wish to join Wind Rain Pavilion, right?" The man in gray glanced at Wang Xiaoqiang and Ding Chunqiu.
Ding Chunqiu weakly said, "I'm merely his immortal slave."
The man in gray replied, "No problem, when assigning tasks, I can arrange for you two to be together."
Fairy Zixia timidly asked, "Can I join?"
"You must reach the Immortal Emperor Realm before you can join," the man in gray said coldly, "Although we have no requirements for an assassin's immortal vein aptitude, there is a minimum threshold, which is that their Qi Refining Cultivation must at least reach the Immortal Emperor Level."
Fairy Zixia was somewhat disheartened by these words.
Wang Xiaoqiang said, "We're in this together. If you don't allow her to join Wind Rain Pavilion, we won't join either."
The man in gray replied, "I didn't say she couldn't join. Isn't she your woman? Our Wind Rain Pavilion is quite humane; assassins are allowed to bring women into the Pavilion. If there are elders and children, they can also be brought in. Rest assured, Wind Rain Pavilion is the safest..."
Fairy Zixia blushed slightly upon hearing this and, after glancing at Wang Xiaoqiang, quickly lowered her eyes.
Wang Xiaoqiang said, "Uh, yes, she is my woman,"
As he spoke, he glanced at Fairy Zixia, her face turning entirely red with embarrassment, unable to lift her eyes. Wang Xiaoqiang felt a pleasant joy in his heart, thinking how wonderful it would be if Fairy Zixia truly became his woman.
"In that case, we will allocate just two lofts for you. Ding Chunqiu gets one, and Fairy Zixia will stay with you," the man in gray said to Wang Xiaoqiang.
"This, this..." Wang Xiaoqiang wanted to ask if the lofts were large enough and if they might be inconvenient, but after acknowledging she was his woman, he stopped.
Men and women in a romantic relationship naturally should stay together; the idea of having separate rooms didn't make sense!
The man in gray didn't say anything more. As if reading Wang Xiaoqiang's thoughts, he smiled slightly and said, "Alright, let me introduce you to a few of the heads of Wind Rain Pavilion..."
"This is Sect Leader Sir, known for his extremely fast movement technique, hence nicknamed Black Whirlwind," the man in gray introduced, pointing to a man dressed in black with a cloak.
Out of respect, Wang Xiaoqiang stood up and cupped his hand, "Sect Leader Sir."
Sect Leader Black Whirlwind waved a hand, "No need for formalities. Here, there isn't really a hierarchical dynamic, but rather a relationship between employer and employee."
Then, the man in gray introduced two other men in gray clothing: first pointing to a stout man, "This is Deputy Sect Leader Lord Anqing,"
And then pointing at a man in gray with a black face, "This is Steward Ann Qilang. If there are assassination missions in the future, he'll be assigning them to you,"
Upon finishing his introduction, the man in gray patted his chest, "I am Wenn Tianliang, responsible for your daily and logistical needs. If anything comes up in your living arrangements, feel free to come to me. You can call me Deacon Wenn in everyday situations."
Wang Xiaoqiang cupped his fists, "Thank you."
Wenn Tianliang turned his hand over and took out two waist tokens, handing them to Wang Xiaoqiang and Ding Chunqiu, "Here, these are your waist tokens. Avoid showing these easily unless absolutely necessary,"
The two took the tokens and saw that each was made of a material neither jade nor bamboo, depicting a building with the words "Wind Rain Pavilion" etched in crimson as if written with blood, emanating an aura of eeriness.
"Alright, you've been on the run and fought battles; I imagine you must be quite exhausted. Let me take you to your rooms to rest," Wenn Tianliang said, standing up to lead the way.
The three followed.
Walking down the corridor, they arrived at two lofts. Wenn Tianliang pointed to one of the lofts and said to Ding Chunqiu, "You stay here."
Ding Chunqiu acknowledged and went inside.
Then Wenn Tianliang opened the door to the other loft and personally led Wang Xiaoqiang and Fairy Zixia inside,
The loft was clean and tidy, not much different from an ordinary room, but it only had one lounge area and one bedroom. Seeing this, Wang Xiaoqiang frowned, thinking how they might manage to sleep at night?
Fairy Zixia was also secretly troubled. How could a lone man and an unwed woman sleep at night?
However, neither dared to say much, for they were currently viewed as a romantic couple by the four high-level members of Wind Rain Pavilion. Denying it might result in Fairy Zixia being expelled from the Pavilion.
"This room is a bit small, but it doesn't matter. Once you advance to the Great Luo Golden Immortal and make it into the top hundred, you'll have your own territory, and if you reach the top fifty, you can have an entire tribe... you'll have more houses than you'll ever need..." Wenn Tianliang finally said to them.
Wang Xiaoqiang sighed at this. "Looks like the Golden Immortal Ranking is quite valuable, indeed..."
"Of course, but it's not easy to break into the Golden Immortal Ranking. If it weren't so valuable, people wouldn't be so enthusiastic about competing for it, would they?"
"Uh, yeah, I guess," Wang Xiaoqiang replied.
Suddenly, Wenn Tianliang looked him in the eye, "You want to obtain an Immortal Pill, right?"
"Yes, I just wanted to ask," Wang Xiaoqiang said.
"You want the Immortal Pill, right?" Wenn Tianliang's eyes flashed as he spoke.
"Yes, I was going to ask about it."
"Well, you must wait until you achieve the True Immortal Stage of Myriad Phases, then you can think about these things. Right now they are too far out of your reach, don't even think about it..." Wenn Tianliang scoffed dismissively.
"Uh, thanks." Wang Xiaoqiang muttered, feeling a bit embarrassed. Indeed, those things were far from reach, as he was not even a True Immortal, let alone a Purple Mansion Immortal.
"Alright then, let me introduce you to some of the other staff and heads of Wind Rain Pavilion..." said Wenn Tianliang finally, with a slight smile as if he could see through Wang Xiaoqiang's thoughts.
"Alright, you've been on the run and fought battles; I can guess you're quite tired. I'll let you rest now. Follow me, and I'll show you to your rooms," Wenn Tianliang said as he led the way out.
Wang Xiaoqiang and Fairy Zixia stood there for a moment, realizing that although the loft wasn't particularly large, it also wasn't small. However, the issue was, they were not yet couple, so sharing the same room was a bit awkward.
