Chapter 296: Surprise & Trapping the Assassin

The mysterious guy seemed to think for a moment and then said solemnly,

Guy:" If it were a head-on fight I might have a chance against her as I am now, but if she would want to kill me, I would struggle a lot only to survive."

Hearing his disciples solemn voice, and the honest reply Master Ming Tong seemed satisfied with his disciple and said,

Ming Tong:" You have changed so much from that night we met, Bai Hu. You seem to be maturing really fast. You are so different from that crying kid I met in that alley."

Looking at a mirror in the office, the blonde fatty had turned into a handsome blonde young man, with a face that showed much more maturity than the previous one he had.

Yes, this mysterious young man was none other than Young Master Bai Hu of the Bai family of Tianchang city.

The Young Master of the family that left Tianchang City in fear and went to the USA, due to some weird encounter, had turned into Master Ming Tong's disciple.

Right now it seemed like there was no cultivation at all in his body, he seemed like a normal person. But even now he was saying confidently she had a chance against the best assassin.

He didn't seem to be joking and neither was Master Ming Tong chiding him for trying to show off or lying. So it must be true.

How was this possible!? Only the Master and disciple might know.

Far away from them, at the corner of a dead alley, a woman clad in black was looking at some photos. But especially she was looking at one of them.

It was Tianlong Yun's photo, she was looking at it with a complicated look. It had been some time since they had met for the last time, but she still remembered the attraction between them.

She didn't even know if Tianlong Yun was dead or alive, she just knew that he was her target and she had to find that out in the future.

With that thought in mind, she just took one last look at the photo and disappeared from where she was, and soon the alley seemed completely empty.

That marked the end of that night. After that night time slowly passed by, and our assassin started collecting information on her targets.

While Tianchang city was completely under Tianlong Yun and the Shadow Clan, she still managed to stumble over them.

At the same time though, she was spotted and noticed by the Shadow Clan. Normally that would be impossible to be done since she was an expert at stealth and disguise.

She didn't understand where she had made the wrong step or where she used the wrong cover but she was found out.

The reason she was the best assassin all over the East Hemisphere was that nobody had ever seen her face. Nobody knew her identity.

And yet this time she was spotted, this was a stain to her self confidence she didn't understand how this would happen.

The only reason she knew about it was that right now she was inside a big storehouse surrounded by a lot of people, watching over every cranny.

As soon as she got out of this trap, she was going to kill those two trashes that gave her the information today.

In actual fact she herself knew this was a trap and had come here knowingly, she wanted to see if Tianlong Yun or the people behind this would show up.

The place she was right now, was supposed to be a safe way out from the newly opened 'the Mansion' not far away from here.

While on the surface it was a culture club, almost everyone on the underworld knew this was a pleasure house, for the rich and powerful.

Or to say in simpler words it was a brothel for those who could afford it. The background this place had seemed to be the Qin's in front view, but there were shadow traces in the back.

Our assassin though was here for only one reason, this place seemed to be a common point between Tianlong Yun, and the other targets.

Especially, her first target that she had yet to find a trace of, Qin Bao. She was surprised at first learning how fast Qin Bao had grown roots in this place.

But when she stumbled upon some connection of this place with Tianlong Yun she didn't know what to think anymore.

She didn't understand what was going on anymore around the city. Until now she thought she had a good grasp on the situation in this city, but only now she learned she was wrong.

From where did all these kids with fighting experience come from? While they looked innocent and naïve, they gave a presence that was worse than a hunting tiger.

But while she was thinking like that, she suddenly heard a joyous voice sound from behind her,

Tianlong Zhu Que:" Yaaayyy! I found her, I win this time! Come here you idiots, otherwise, I am going to tell Master you are useless, next time we meet him."

As soon as that voice was cut off, there were three buzzing sounds one by one and three little boys appeared around the assassin.

The assassin was totally dumbfounded because she hadn't been able to sense when the little girl arrived behind her at all.

She wasn't even able to sense the arrival of the trio latter either. Let alone that, she was looking at them right now, but they didn't seem to have a presence at all.

Had she gone senile, or was she losing her senses? No way, she was still young. The problem wasn't on her, she could still sense the others, but not these guys.

So the problem was with them, she didn't know what was going on but she understood that she shouldn't stay here even a single second more.

Otherwise, she didn't know what other surprises this place might have, and she wasn't prepared for all those.

Even when thinking about preparations for the next time she didn't know what to do, because she still hadn't found a thing about this place.

The only thing she was able to discover was that it wasn't a normal place at all and that it was really difficult to deal with.

With these thoughts in mind, she threw a little smoke bomb on the floor and disappeared from the storehouse.

At the same moment though disappeared even the 4 kids that were around here, without caring in the least about the smoke they jumped behind her.

While their speed wasn't the same as hers, and she had the better technique to boot, she was still stunned by their fighting skills.

Not to mention their combination, their ability to predict her moves, and also her next position. It was unbelievable.

She was having fun playing with them, but if she kept doing that then more powerful people might appear and she would surely get caught by them.

Deciding to close her fun here, she took out four small needles from her wrist band, and while dodging the attacks thrown at her fluidly like a leaf, she shot them with one needle each.

Normally these needles had enough poison that would be enough for a normal person to get paralyzed for 6-12 hours. But these guys seemed just a bit sloppier and nothing more.

What the hell was wrong with these kids!?

Before she could even think of that though, she suddenly felt a terrible bloodlust on her back directed at her.

It didn't feel like human bloodlust though, it was like an animal's bloodlust, and her doubts were confirmed when she turned her head back.

Behind her was standing a girl of around 17-18 years old. She had weird white and black striped hair and big black eyes.

She was well endowed for one of her age, but the most important thing was the look on her eyes. She was looking at her as if she was a snack.

The new girl's presence seemed to have relieved the kids around her, as soon as they saw her here, a new wave of confidence seemed to have been born between them.

In the meantime, the new girl just purred in happiness and jumped forward. Immediately she disappeared from her place and was nowhere to be seen.

It was only after she got out of her shock, that the assassin could feel the new girl behind her. At that moment she seemed to be, smelling her!?

Her doubts were confirmed a moment later when she heard the new girl say,

New girl:" Right I got your smell, from now on you will not be able to escape me. Haha… Master will be so happy with me."

While the new girl was talking, the assassin made a forwards flip, while she sent a mirror of needles towards the newcomer.

But before the needles could make contact with her skin, steel-like strong hairs started to grow all over the girl's body.

She had seen all those ability users until now, but none of them was so strong as to face her. Not to mention that this girl didn't seem to be even 18 years old.

This place was definitely weird and too difficult for her. There was no way she would be able to complete this task alone.

Perhaps she would have to ask for help from her Clan, but right now the first priority was an escape. She had to leave this place alive first.

With that thought in mind, she decided to use one of her hidden techniques, and immediately her body split in two.

It was two identical clones, there was no difference between them. Even in soul imprint, they seemed to be the same.

Without losing much time she ran in two different directions, but only one was her real body. The new girl seemed to have been fooled and followed the clone.

But before she could enjoy her freedom though, she saw in front of her a beautiful redhead fairy. She seemed dazzling and dangerous.

While she was looking at her eyes though, there was no malice, or even fighting intent. She seemed calm and steady like a lake, as she said with a gentle voice,

Tianlong Xia:" Do you want to see him now, Y…
