"Sui Xin, this is Qin Ming."
"Qin Ming? ... That Qin Ming?!"
"Yes, the one who went missing with your aunt ten years ago."
"He’s back?! What about my aunt—"
"Wait—I'm a bit confused..." Huo Suixin's mind was tangled with recent events, making it hard to think clearly. "Ayan and Lou Xiang are together to eliminate the Lou Family's embedded issues within the Peng Family... and to cut off the rotten parts of the Peng Family... So why does Qin Huai still need to—"
"Threaten him earlier at the door of the private room?"
Qin Huai smirked lightly. "This plan seems to be improvised for all of us, and I, well... I followed Director Li's request to test him. After all, the person you, Sister Huo, are entrusting is highly valued by both the Li Family and the Huo Family. No matter what, he has passed the test and even turned it around to bite back at those stubborn old fools from the Peng Family. Now, the newly formed Peng Family is completely in his hands—aren't you, Young Master Peng?"
"What?!"
Huo Suixin stared in shock at the Handsome Man who walked in, her anger rising. "You, Peng Nanyan, dared to deceive me! I thought you—I thought you..." Her voice choked up at the end, unable to continue.
The usually carefree Huo Suixin showed a vulnerable side, revealing that her earlier indifference towards Lou Xiang was merely an act... Tsk, women~
Qin Huai's lips curled into a smile as he exchanged knowing glances with Beichuan—no, it should be Qin Ming. Everything was understood in silence.
...
"Beichuan—no, Qin Ming... what exactly is going on? Where is my aunt?"
"Your aunt may be trapped in a very special place..."
"Where?!"
Qin Ming and Li Nanbei exchanged a glance. He had come to Furong Pavilion to find Li Nanbei for something he could hardly believe himself.
"Zero Point."
Li Nanbei took over Qin Ming's words, coldly uttering two syllables.
"Zero Point—?!"
Huo Suixin suddenly recalled what Yan Yan had said at Zhao Hunter's house. Now that she thought about it carefully...
The game, Loulan Ancient City Ruins.
Yan Yan warily stared at the NPC in front of her, who exuded a strong sense of incongruity, her Ember Bow fully drawn.
"Girl, do you know where this is?"
The woman, painted with bright Red Sandalwood, wore a thin red gauze dress. The yellow sand could not conceal her alluring figure; her enchanting posture and the shimmering light in her phoenix-like eyes created a dangerous curve on her red lips. Two curved blades rested behind her, glinting with a sharp cold light... Even so, that strikingly beautiful face was an uncanny replica of Huo Suixin!
Yan Yan suppressed her unease and various speculations, bowing respectfully as she said, "Senior, I was just passing through."
"Oh? It sounds like you know where this is... So why did you dare to intrude?!"
As the latter part of the sentence was spoken with a fierce tone, an overwhelming pressure suddenly descended upon Yan Yan, and the abruptly stagnant air made her feel a wave of breathlessness.
In a hurry, she looked up and scanned the attributes of the Bss before her, but as expected...
Assassin: Guardian of Loulan Ancient City Ruins
Attribute: Leading Monsters
Level: ???
Health Points: ???
Attack: ???
However, her name was highlighted in yellow, indicating that she was not an actively aggressive monster... Furthermore—there might be a quest associated with her.
She had to explore the Loulan Ancient City Ruins and find those items she needed to collect; she couldn't delay the Guild Base of Strict Language and Misinformation any longer...
"Senior, I came over because of a quest. I wonder if you have heard of the name 'Thorn'?"
"Thorn?! How do you know about him!"
"I am a disciple of Master Runi," she said, as a player from the Archer Alliance, which should nominally count her as one of Master Runi's disciples... right? Yan Yan vaguely glossed over her identity and explained her mission, "I am here to complete what Thorn left unfinished in his lifetime."
"You lie! As a girl, even if you are a disciple of Master Runi, you could not possibly know about Thorn's affairs because even his teacher, Master Runi, does not know about them!"
"Swish—"
The sun and moon shone brightly!
Damn... the BOSS's name suddenly turned red!
A powerful move came crashing in!
Aerial Blast!
As Yan Yan soared high into the air, Arrow Rain poured down from her hands like a torrent, carrying a devastating momentum...
As the Arrow Rain fell, the yellow sand swirled around.
When the dust settled, the Red-Clad Figure stood silently in the massive pit, two gleaming Cold Radiance curved blades crossed over her chest, and the ground was littered with severed arrowheads.
She actually caught them all?!
Yan Yan stared in shock at the Assassin. Truly, a level sixty full-level gatekeeper BOSS, but...
She was astonished to see the Assassin's name change from red to yellow. Just as she was about to speak, the other party suddenly burst into joyful laughter.
"Hahaha! You really are the heir of Thorn—you’ve learned his secret technique ‘Aerial Blast,’ I believe you!"
Heir?!
Wait, if she remembered correctly, Thorn was one of the Dark Camp members!
She pinched the bridge of her nose, trying to push aside all her chaotic thoughts and forcing herself to deal with the max-level Boss Assassin in front of her.
"Senior, I know the secret of the Loulan Ancient City Ruins... A thousand years ago, before the racial wars and the wars of the gods, it was a dreamlike paradise. After those two great battles, it became the dead city buried under the sands," she continued as she noticed the astonished look on his face. "The last lord of Loulan Ancient City, Musa, hid all the secrets of the ancient city in a room deep within it. This includes various concealed truths from both the racial wars and the wars of the gods. If I'm not mistaken, Thorn..." She licked her dry lips and tentatively asked, "Master Thorn, is his secret hidden in there as well?"
"Girl, are you trying to extract information from me?" The Assassin narrowed his eyes slightly, a hint of sharpness emerging from this max-level Big Boss's Intimidation. Instantly, Yan Yan felt sweat bead at her temples under the pressure that made her want to kneel. She struggled to speak, "Senior, I have already proven my identity to you. I hope you can trust me."
The Assassin scrutinized her for a few minutes.
Those few minutes felt like centuries.
Finally, he said something that made Yan Yan breathe a sigh of relief.
"Follow me."
Inside the Furong Pavilion private room.
"Only in that place did both the Li Family and Huo Family mobilize all their resources and still fail to find Huo Sitong. Moreover, by chance, I was fortunate enough to witness someone coming out from there."
After saying this, he cast a subtle glance at Qin Huai, who was leaning against the Grandmaster Chair. The latter returned him a vague look.
