I Became the Legendary Emperor Throughout the Ages After I Started Giving Away My Territory

Chapter 276.2



By this time, the news of Empty Hand Master joining the Green Garment Tower had spread throughout the rivers and lakes.

“Empty Hand Master has actually joined the Green Garment Tower?”

“Is he tired of living, to be so reckless?”

“Who knows? Wasn’t it good enough staying in Great Xia? To think he’s returned to his old ways and even joined the notorious Green Garment Tower!”

“That divine weapon Murderous Green must have been stolen by him!”

Others started to mock Great Xia.

After all, Empty Hand Master was originally from Great Xia, and now he had been poached by the Green Garment Tower.

You wanted to stay out of it at first, and now you’ve brought trouble upon yourselves, haven’t you?

Lin Beifan was very angry about it and issued a wanted poster for Empty Hand Master.

As for taking action, there was none at all.

In private, he even secretly met with Empty Hand Master.

Upon seeing Lin Beifan, Empty Hand Master clung to his legs while weeping bitterly, “Your Majesty, I’ve been blackmailed by the Green Garment Tower, I got on the bandit ship and now I can’t get off! You have to help me now!”

Lin Beifan smiled and said, “Stop crying. What’s the big deal?”

“Isn’t that a big enough deal?”

Empty Hand Master jumped up excitedly, “This time, I’ve offended the whole world, ands everyone wants to cut me to pieces! The world is vast, but there’s no place for Empty Hand Master anymore!”

Lin Beifan waved his hand impatiently, “Why are you so agitated over such a trivial matter? Won’t your name be cleared once we take down the Green Garment Tower? Just endure a little longer. It will be over soon!”

Empty Hand Master muttered to himself: Taking down the Green Garment Tower is easier said than done!

If it were that easy, they wouldn’t have lasted for a thousand years.

“Your Majesty, what should I do next?”

“Of course, you should try to make as many contributions as possible and climb as high as you can! When you reach a high position, then you can be of use!”

Empty Hand Master left with Lin Beifan’s plan in mind.

In the days that followed, he worked diligently for the Green Garment Tower.

He didn’t kill, he only stole, and he stole only the most valuable things, like divine weapons, divine elixirs, and so on.

He struck frequently and succeeded just as often.

With his efforts, the Green Garment Tower quickly grew wealthy.

At the same time, his reputation in the rivers and lakes was completely ruined, becoming a target for everyone to curse and chase.

However, Life-Taking Rakshasa was quite satisfied.

The newcomer had been with us for less than a month, yet they had generated years’ worth of revenue for Green Garment Tower. Bringing in Empty Hand Master was totally worth it.

Moreover, he now become completely integrated with Green Garment Tower and can be entrusted with major responsibilities.

So, she called Empty Hand Master over.

“Empty Hand Master, you’ve done well these past days, and I am very pleased! From today onward, you will be our Green Garment Tower’s ‘Heaven-ranked’ assassin! All the benefits will be in line with those of a ‘Heaven-ranked’ assassin!”

“Thank you, Third Leader!” Empty Hand Master said expressionlessly.

Green Garment Tower classifies its assassins into four levels: Heaven, Earth, Mysterious, and Yellow.

A ‘Heaven-ranked’ assassin possesses Innate Imperial Qi and has created a value of over 10 million taels for Green Garment Tower.

An ‘Earth-ranked’ assassin possesses Innate Astral Qi and has created a value of over 3 million taels.

A ‘Mysterious-ranked’ assassin possesses Innate True Qi and has created a value of over 1 million taels.

A ‘Yellow-ranked’ assassin possesses First-rate master cultivation and has created a value of over 300,000 taels.

Although Empty Hand Master had generated far more than 10 million taels in value for Green Garment Tower, his cultivation was only at the level of Innate Astral Qi, which normally would not qualify him for the ‘Heaven-ranked’ assassin.

However, Green Garment Tower was in dire need of experts, which is why they had to make an exception and promote him.

The benefits of becoming a ‘Heaven-ranked’ assassin include higher commission income, access to some of Green Garment Tower’s internal techniques, divine elixirs, and other rewards, as well as an annual guidance session with the chief leader.

The advantages were numerous.

But Empty Hand Master didn’t care at all.

All he wanted now was to quickly destroy Green Garment Tower and gain his freedom.

“Empty Hand Master, I’ve noticed that these days you’ve stolen from all sorts of forces, but it seems you’ve never made a move against Great Xia!” Life-Taking Rakshasa said with a smile, her eyes narrowing, her mind pondering unknown thoughts.

Empty Hand Master replied unflinchingly, “After all, they are my former masters and have treated me well! So, even though I have betrayed them, I would never lay a hand on them!”

“What a loyal and righteous Empty Hand Master!”

Life-Taking Rakshasa exclaimed, clapping her hands. “However, you are now a person of Green Garment Tower, and you should prioritize our interests! Great Xia has many treasures, such as the peerless divine weapon—the Xuanxiao Divine Sword! Can you steal it for us?”

Empty Hand Master’s pupils shrank as he blurted out, “Impossible!”

“Is it impossible, or you cannot, or do not want to?” Life-Taking Rakshasa pressed him, her gaze as cold as a venomous snake.
