Warning! A hidden dragon has emerged!

Qin Quan and Jiang Yao walked into the lobby side by side, with Qin Quan recording the video while making sarcastic remarks.

"The president and vice president of the prestigious Jincheng Martial Arts Alliance actually knelt before the leader of an assassin organization. If I were to post this video online, do you think the Martial Arts Alliance would be utterly disgraced?"

"Uncle Quan! Help!"

Upon seeing Qin Quan, Jin Hai, as if grasping at a lifeline, scrambled over and cried out:

"They are from the Wind and Rain Pavilion, and their goal is to assassinate you. If we join forces, they will surely die."

Liu Chuanwu quickly echoed, his face full of urgency.

"Yes, Master Quan! We are all warriors of the Dragon Kingdom, and we should unite against a common enemy! Being insulted by you is better than losing our lives!"

The two had long lost their former arrogance and only wanted to escape the masked woman's control.

"Wow, so much backbone?"

Qin Quan scoffed, his mockery deepening.

"Alright, you can deal with these two blonde beauties. I'll take care of this Lord of Fengyu Tower."

"Wha...what? She's the owner of the Wind and Rain Pavilion?"

Jin Hai and Liu Chuanwu looked ashen-faced, and their bodies trembled even more violently.

"No wonder she was able to take us all down; she's someone on par with Alliance Leader Shen!"

"Mr. Quan, are you... are you sure you can succeed?"

Jin Hai looked worried.

If Qin Quan loses, they will all die here; if he wins, the Golden City Martial Alliance can save face.

"Whether we're confident or not, we'll only know after we play."

Qin Quan was too lazy to waste any more words with them. He looked up at the masked woman with a cold and slightly mocking gaze.

Once she is killed, the assassination mission against him by Fengyulou will be completely over.

As for the other organizations, we can use the same method of attack and eliminate them one by one.

"The dignified master of the Wind and Rain Pavilion doesn't even dare to show his true face. Is he afraid of being ugly, or afraid of being hunted down?"

Qin Quan appeared to be joking, but a murderous intent surged in his eyes.

"Hahaha!"

The masked woman suddenly burst into laughter, her laughter revealing an undisguised excitement.

Upon closer inspection, her delicate body trembled slightly with excitement, and her originally cold gaze instantly became incredibly tender, as if she were looking at a lost treasure that had been found again, or a long-lost relative she had reunited with.

"Qin Quan, the only male disciple of Yuquan Temple, am I right?"

Qin Quan was shocked and his expression changed drastically. His killing intent surged, and his icy voice, like a thousand-year-old ice peak, carried a terrifying pressure as it approached the masked woman.

"Who are you?"

"Wow, you've got quite a temper."

The masked woman waved her hand lazily, and Qin Quan's killing intent, which was enough to crush a ninth-grade grandmaster, was like a gentle breeze in her eyes.

She turned to the two blonde women beside her and instructed them:

"This matter ends here. Inform Nightingale to immediately refund the full commission to the employer. The assassination mission against Qin Quan is cancelled!"

"Yes, OP!"

The two blonde women were full of doubts, but dared not ask any more questions, and bowed to accept the order.

The masked woman slowly rose and walked towards Qin Quan with alluring steps, her skirt fluttering lightly, her aura ever-changing.

"Want to kill me? Then come with me!"

As soon as she finished speaking, she leaped into the air, light as a swallow, her figure turning into a blur, and in the blink of an eye, she had darted out of the Martial Alliance headquarters.

Qin Quan's eyes narrowed. How could he let go of the prey he had caught?

Moreover, the other party's identity is mysterious, and they know about his past; we must find out the truth.

"Sister Yao, you keep watching the show, I'll be right back!"

He hurriedly gave Jiang Yao a few words of advice, then flashed away and followed the masked woman, his speed not lagging behind at all.

Inside the lobby.

Jin Hai and Liu Chuanwu looked at each other, completely dumbfounded.

"Shouldn't this be a fierce battle? What's this?"

Liu Chuanwu scratched his head, his face full of confusion.

"Could it be that they can't find a place to fight here, so they've decided to go outside for a final showdown?"

Jin Hai guessed.

Do you think it's possible?

Liu Chuanwu rolled his eyes. "That woman clearly meant Qin Quan no harm. Not only did she cancel the assassination mission, but she also lured him out. Something's not right, something's really not right!"

……

Jincheng Center.

The hundred-story building is like a sharp sword piercing the sky.

The wind howled on the rooftop, and the sunlight was blinding.

Two figures arrived on the wind and landed steadily on the edge of the rooftop. Qin Quan was surrounded by spiritual energy, which was almost tangible, and his gaze was fixed on the masked woman.

"Who exactly are you? What is your purpose in bringing me here?"

From the moment the other party ordered the assassination to be canceled and Qin Ling to return the commission, he knew that this person must know him.

The phrase "the only male disciple of Yuquan Temple" in particular made his heart skip a beat, and his heart was filled with turmoil.

"You don't even recognize me?"

The masked woman chuckled softly, her voice carrying a hint of grievance and mockery.

My heart is truly aching.

Don't give me that!

Qin Quan's murderous aura surged once more. "If you can't give me a clear explanation today, don't blame me for being ruthless!"

He would not hesitate to kill the enemy if they made the slightest move.

However, the masked woman was not afraid at all. She slowly turned around, her fingertips gently touching the golden mask on her face, her movements gentle and somewhat languid.

The next second, the golden mask was slowly removed, instantly revealing a stunningly beautiful, aloof, and breathtakingly gorgeous face to the sunlight.

Sunlight shone on her face, as if gilding it with a faint golden glow. Her features were exquisite, and her demeanor was noble. She possessed both the cold elegance of an assassin leader and an indescribable gentleness, making her breathtakingly beautiful.

"Junior brother, upon seeing Second Senior Sister, why aren't you bowing?"

A familiar voice rang out, gentle yet teasing, exactly as Qin Quan remembered.

brush!

Qin Quan was struck dumb, his body stiffened on the spot, his pupils shrank, and even his breathing stopped.

The owner of the Wind and Rain Pavilion was actually his second senior sister.

Ling Yuyan!

How is that possible?

He had imagined countless possibilities—the other party might be an enemy or an ally—but he never thought that this fearsome assassin leader would be his second senior sister, with whom he had relied on each other for eight years on Ziyun Mountain.

That gentle-spoken, caring, and kind-hearted young woman who looked after him like an older sister.

How could he be a cold-blooded killer, or even a top master in the assassin world?

This huge contrast was hard for him to accept for a while, and he even started to stammer when he spoke.

"Second...Second Senior Sister? You...how come you're the Master of the Wind and Rain Pavilion?"

"Why can't I be?"

Ling Yuyan swayed gracefully as she walked towards him with sexy cat-like steps, the sunlight casting long shadows of her.

"Number one on the assassin ranking list? That's your senior sister, me!"

She walked up to Qin Quan without any hesitation and put her arm around his shoulder. Their intimate manner was completely different from her cold and domineering demeanor at the Martial Alliance.

Qin Quan instinctively tried to dodge, but Ling Yuyan held him tightly, her voluptuous body pressed close to his, a faint fragrance lingering in his nostrils, and the warm touch clearly discernible.

Qin Quan blushed slightly and chuckled awkwardly, "As expected of Second Senior Sister, you're truly amazing!"

"Of course!"

Ling Yuyan became even more smug and hugged him even tighter.

"Tell your senior sister quickly, when did you leave Ziyun Mountain? How are Master, Eldest Senior Sister, and Third Junior Sister doing? And who is that beautiful woman next to you?"
