Dragon Hidden in the Sky

"And this is!" Ye Qing looked at the young man!

"This is my apprentice!" Chen Banxian said. "Didn't your old man at home tell you that when you grow up, you should fight someone?"

Ye Qing shook his head blankly and said, "They didn't mention it!"

"Hmph, this old man is quite confident!" Chen Banxian said, "I made a promise with your master that my disciple will have a fight with you someday!"

"Me and him?" Ye Qing glanced at the young man and said, "Isn't he too young? This is too much of a bully!"

The scruffy-looking boy glared at him and said, "Who do you think you are? Believe me or not, I'll punch you to death!"

Ye Qing pursed his lips, then looked at the boy and said, "Are you very hungry?"

The boy's expression faltered, then he clutched his stomach and said, "I'm not hungry at all!"

"I'll treat you to a late-night snack!" Ye Qing said.

"Really?" The boy's eyes lit up.

Chen Banxian glared at the boy and said, "You son of a bitch, do you have any ambition? You're going to be fighting him someday, and you think you can just get rid of him with a midnight snack?"

He paused for a moment, then added, "But the fight isn't something that's happened in the last two years. You can go have a meal with him, and remember to bring me some back when you come back. I want twenty skewers of kidneys!"

Ye Qing, the boy: "..."

"You didn't just wander over here aimlessly, did you?" Chen Banxian said again, "For this guy?"

He pointed to the person falling in the air and said.

Ye Qing nodded thoughtfully and said, "What... is this?"

Chen Banxian cursed and said, "Damn it, my good disciple and I were sleeping here when we vaguely heard some idiot climbing up this frame and making some noise. After he came down, we took him down and were going to teach him a lesson!"

This person is in a terrible state; he is tied up and suspended, his body covered in bruises from being beaten with bamboo strips.

"A sniper rifle!" Chen Banxian exclaimed. "He's not here to get you, is he?"

"It seems...yes!" Ye Qing smiled slightly.

Then he came to the man's face. The man's expression was filled with fear, and he dared not meet Ye Qing's eyes!

"Lin Xiang?" Ye Qing asked.

The person remained silent.

"Damn it, I'm asking you a question!" the boy next to him cursed, "You're not going to talk, are you?!"

He raised the bamboo stick in his hand and said, "I'll beat you to death!"

The man hanging there suddenly changed his expression. He was clearly a little scared from being whipped, and obviously he wasn't a tough nut to crack.

He quickly and cooperatively replied, "Yes, that's me!"

"Who invited you here!" Ye Qing said calmly. "You want to kill me?"

Yes, the enemy's first shot was aimed directly at him.

If it was for Lin Qianyu's sake, under those circumstances, Lin Qianyu would have had absolutely no chance of surviving.

She wasn't Ye Qing; she didn't react that quickly.

Lin Xiang's expression shifted between light and dark, and he quickly said, "Someone wants me to kill Lin Qianyu!"

"Who?" Ye Qing asked.

"The people behind the Heavenly Net!" Lin Xiang said.

"Huh?" Ye Qing's pupils contracted. "Who told you to come!"

"I don't know!" Lin Xiang said.

"What did you say?" The disheveled boy's eyes turned cold!

"I...I really don't know!" Lin Xiang hurriedly said, "Years ago, I left Tianluodiwang, and it was he who made me leave. At that time, my family encountered some trouble, and he said he could help me solve it, but on the condition that I leave Tianluodiwang and become an assassin!"

"After that, he would occasionally give me tasks, but he never showed up, including the first time! The only thing I can be sure of is that he must be a high-ranking member of the Heavenly Net, either from the Heavenly Net itself or from one of those major families!"

At this point, he quickly added, "This time, his mission for me is to kill Lin Qianyu and bring her body back!"

"When I arrived in Donghai, someone gave me information, including your rooms and the most suitable gathering place!"

Ye Qing pondered for a moment and said, "Two points!"

"The first point: Who gave you the information?"

"Secondly, didn't you want to kill Lin Qianyu? Why was the first shot fired at me?"

Lin Xiang's expression shifted between light and shadow. He shook his head and said, "I don't know who collected the information. After I arrived in Donghai, I went to the designated location and obtained this intelligence data!"

"As for why I shot you!" Lin Xiang gritted his teeth and said, "The underworld is all saying that you've appeared next to Lin Qianyu, the most beautiful woman in Jiangcheng!"

He swallowed hard and said, "I have some grudges between me and your Mangshan!"

"Hmm?" Ye Qing's pupils contracted. "You have a grudge against Mangshan?"

"I...I used to...pursue your second senior sister, but I was...I was humiliated by the people of Mangshan, so I've always wanted to kill someone from Mangshan to prove myself!" Lin Xiang's expression was somewhat complicated, with a hint of shame in his eyes!

Hearing this, Ye Qing stroked his chin and pondered for a moment before asking, "How did you contact that person? For example, how did he assign you tasks?"

“Make a phone call!” Lin Xiang said. “He calls me directly to tell me about every mission, but every call is different.”

Upon hearing this, Ye Qing's pupils contracted slightly!

He felt that this was a breakthrough.

It sounds like the person who contacted him directly is most likely a high-ranking member of this inescapable network, and most likely one of the masterminds behind it all!

He hesitated for a moment, then took out his phone and called Yang Xiaoxiao.

A short while later, the call connected, and Yang Xiaoxiao's voice came through: "Calling me so late at night, do you want to ask me out?"

"Uh!" Ye Qing coughed and said, "I guess so, but... something came up!"

He briefly explained the situation, and after a short while, Yang Xiaoxiao nodded and said, "Okay, I'll arrange for someone to come and handle it. Should we kill the person or...?"

"Keep it for now!" Ye Qing said. "If someone calls again, let him answer it. This guy's a bit soft-hearted and easy to control! Record his voice and see if you can identify who's calling him from their voice!"

“Okay!” Yang Xiaoxiao said.
