Warning! A hidden dragon has emerged!

Before Jin Hai could finish speaking, he was interrupted by the masked woman in a cold voice.

"Go ahead and shout, no matter how loud you shout, no one will come."

"Who exactly are you? Why have you trespassed into my Martial Alliance?"

Jin Hai forced himself to calm down.

The three women were able to appear silently behind him and Liu Chuanwu, so their strength must far surpass theirs. Coupled with their fearless demeanor, they were clearly prepared.

Suddenly, Jin Hai seemed to realize something, his expression changed drastically, and a terrible thought surged into his mind.

"You...you didn't kill everyone from the Martial Alliance, did you?"

He had just called out to the outside of the courtyard, but not a single martial artist responded.

He couldn't think of any other possibility.

The masked woman ignored him and walked to the grand chair in the main hall, sitting down calmly with a powerful aura, like a queen in control of everything.

The two blonde women behind him immediately stepped forward, skillfully brewing tea and arranging snacks, their movements as natural as if they were back in their own home.

After a long silence, she slowly spoke, saying calmly:

"I didn't kill them, I just knocked them all unconscious."

"hiss!"

Upon hearing this, Jin Hai and Liu Chuanwu couldn't help but gasp, their faces turning ashen.

The Kinsei Martial Arts Alliance has nearly a hundred martial artists stationed there year-round, with about thirty on duty at a time.

The fact that these three could knock them all unconscious in broad daylight shows that their strength is terrifyingly powerful.

They had a vague premonition that a catastrophic disaster was about to befall the Golden City Martial Arts Alliance.

"We have no past grudges or present animosity, so why did you knock my men unconscious?"

Jin Hai forced down his fear and asked in a trembling voice, his legs shaking uncontrollably.

The masked woman picked up her teacup and took a small sip.

His posture was languid yet his aura was overwhelming; his cold voice was devoid of any warmth.

"Lord Fengyulou, do you know him?"

brush!

Jin Hai and Liu Chuanwu exchanged a glance, both seeing the doubt in each other's eyes.

"I know! He just arrived in Jincheng a few days ago, but what does that have to do with us?"

The Martial Alliance is a massive organization with informants all over the world. All assassins and spies who infiltrate the Dragon Kingdom are under its and Hidden Dragon's dual surveillance.

Unless the other party possesses extraordinary strength, they will not be able to escape surveillance.

"After he joined the Martial Alliance, he never appeared again."

The masked woman put down her teacup, her tone suddenly turning cold.

"Don't you owe me an explanation?"

As soon as she finished speaking, she raised her hand and waved. A blonde woman behind her immediately understood and quickly took out a tablet computer and opened it.

On the screen was the complete surveillance footage of Lord Sir leaving Jincheng University and infiltrating the Jincheng Martial Arts Alliance in the middle of the night.

The image is clear and undeniable.

"We've never even seen him!"

Jin Hai frowned, his heart pounding.

"I've long heard of Lord Duke's strength. If he dares to intrude into the Martial Alliance, I will definitely find out immediately; there's no way I'll remain silent!"

Suddenly, Jin Hai snapped back to reality, his whole body trembled, and he asked in terror:

"No! You're looking for Lord Jue, are you from the Wind and Rain Pavilion?"

Judging from the other party's aura and style of doing things, their status and position must far exceed his and Liu Chuanwu's, and they are not people they can afford to offend.

"Stop talking nonsense."

The masked woman said impatiently, "Hand over the Duke and bring him to see me."

"We really didn't..."

Before Jin Hai could finish speaking, the masked woman suddenly flipped her wrist, and the teacup on the table was instantly enveloped by an invisible force, spinning and whistling as it hurtled towards Jin Hai's face.

"not good!"

Jin Hai was shocked and mobilized all his inner energy to form a defensive barrier in front of him.

But his defenses were as thin as paper in front of the masked woman, utterly vulnerable!

Boom!

The teacup collided with the defensive barrier, producing a deafening sound.

In the blink of an eye, the defensive barrier crumbled, lasting less than a second.

The teacup, unstoppable and relentless, slammed into Jin Hai's chest, sending him flying five or six meters away before crashing heavily onto the marble floor, spitting out a mouthful of blood.

The teacup, however, spun back perfectly to the masked woman's hand and landed steadily.

Not a single drop of tea spilled from the teacup.

"Please investigate thoroughly, Your Excellency. Everything I have said is true; we have never seen the Lord!"

Jin Hai struggled to his feet, knelt down and begged for mercy, looking extremely humble.

"I swear on my life that Chairman Kim's words are true!"

Liu Chuanwu also immediately knelt down, trembling all over.

He and Jin Hai were in the same boat; their fates were intertwined.

Jin Hai is in trouble; he will not have a good end.

The masked woman's gaze was like a knife, fixed on the two of them as if trying to see through their thoughts, and her murderous aura grew stronger and stronger.

"Are you sure you haven't seen the Duke?"

"No!"

The two answered in unison, their voices crisp and decisive, without the slightest hesitation; the fear in their eyes was genuine.

The masked woman's face grew increasingly grim, her murderous aura almost bursting through the hall. She coldly waved her hand.

"Go, pull up all the surveillance footage from the Martial Alliance!"

"No! The Martial Alliance's surveillance involves classified information; you have no right to view it..."

Snapped!

The crisp sound of a slap echoed throughout the hall. Jin Hai was sent flying by the masked woman's palm strike from a distance, crashing heavily five meters away. His cheek instantly swelled up, and he even lost two teeth.

"How dare you interrupt me when I'm handling matters? Kneel down!"

The masked woman's voice wasn't loud, but it was like a chilling wind from the depths of hell, carrying a bone-chilling pressure.

Jin Hai and Liu Chuanwu felt as if a mountain was pressing down on them. Their legs went weak, and they involuntarily knelt on the ground, unable to even lift their heads.

A few minutes later.

Two blonde women walked over quickly, opened a tablet computer, and the screen still showed the scene of Lord entering the Martial Alliance. However, at the end of the scene, it was not Lord who walked out of the Martial Alliance, but a tall and handsome figure.

It was Qin Quan!

"On the night the Duke disappeared, only this person left the Martial Alliance. No one else entered or left until eight o'clock the next morning."

The blonde woman reported in a deep voice.

"That back view... looks so familiar."

The masked woman's gaze was sharp as a knife, fixed intently on the tablet screen.

The night was dark and the lights were dim, making it impossible to see the face of the person on the screen. Yet, that silhouette stirred something within her, as if she had seen it somewhere before.

She held the tablet up to Jin Hai and Liu Chuanwu and asked sternly:

Do you know him?

The two looked closely and exclaimed in surprise, saying in unison:

"He is Qin Quan, your Fengyulou assassination target. What is he doing at the Martial Alliance?"

"What? Qin Quan?"

The masked woman was struck as if by lightning. She sat up abruptly, her expression changing drastically. Her sinister gaze glared fiercely at the two blonde women behind her, her eyes filled with boundless rage.

"Why didn't anyone tell me that the target of this assassination was Qin Quan?"

"Dear poster, we don't know either!"

The two blonde women looked bewildered and hurriedly explained.

"We're so focused on investigating the lord's disappearance that we never ask about the details of our subordinates' missions..."

They were truly baffled as to why a mere Qin Quan could cause the usually composed Lord of the Tower to lose his composure like this.

"Oh my, Chairman Kim, Vice Chairman Liu, your posture is quite unique."

A mocking voice suddenly came from outside the door.

Immediately afterwards, Qin Quan held up his phone and quickly went inside to record the entire scene in the lobby.

Jiang Yao, dressed in sportswear, stood beside him, her figure dashing, her eyes coldly sweeping over everyone in the room.
