Assassin Wu Liuqi starts with a bull and horse talisman and smashes Red Fang.

Time flies like an arrow, and in the blink of an eye, the day of the Blood Exchange Ranking Tournament, as stipulated by the Assassin Leader, arrived.

As a shadow assassin, Manjusaka was naturally recalled in advance by the assassin leader.

For safety's sake, Gu Qianhan gently pulled her into his arms again before she left, and lightly touched her forehead with his finger.

Gu Qianhan then added a double protection spell of horse and sheep to her, lasting for another month.

Since his dragon talismans are not yet at their peak, their power can only temporarily bless her for a month at most.

But that's enough. Once I've cleared this trial and become a Shadow Assassin, Manjusaka won't be in any danger with me by her side.

Gu Qianhan's plan was to temporarily appoint him as the chief, and then manually eliminate him once that weak leader brought A Qi back.

After all, Gu Qianhan's only purpose in keeping the assassin leader alive was to wait for him to bring back the big Qi.

Otherwise, just the fact that he threatened Manjusaka with the Blade of Fear alone would have been enough for him to kill her ten thousand times over.

He is a person who never cares about the life or death of others, yet he is extremely protective of his own.

In a word.

He can treat his women with all his heart, provided that they don't betray him or oppose him.

Otherwise, he could treat them just like any other outsider, showing them complete honesty and ruthlessness.

Just like before in the red-light district.

If Manjusaka had said the wrong thing or chosen the wrong side, he could have killed her along with the Eyeless Monk.

Since I'm going to participate in an event organized by the Assassins, it's inconvenient for me to bring Plum Blossom Eleven with me.

So he took Mei Hua Eleven directly to the "Tianlong Building Nursery".

Ask them to look after Plum Blossom Eleven for me.

However, when they arrived, they found no trace of Lanminghua.

Not only that, many of the disciples of the entire Tianlong Gang headquarters are gone, and now only Jianglong and Fuhu are left to guard the gate.

Where is Lao Liu?

The two, Jianglong and Fuhu, grasped at this as if it were a lifeline, and were almost ready to hug Gu Qianhan and weep bitterly.

"Mr. Gu, our gang leader has disappeared!"

"When you have time later, could you please help us find our leader? We miss him terribly!"

Hearing this, Gu Qianhan couldn't help but chuckle.

Of course he knew where Lanminghua had gone.

I had only mentioned Chicken Island to him briefly, but I never expected that this scoundrel Hua would take action so quickly.

Come to think of it, although his cultivation level would make him less bored, he was currently a hot potato.

If I'm not mistaken, Mo Lang might have already come here and talked to Lanminghua about me.

If he heard from Mo Lang about what he had done in the Kingdom of Ster, he should not have had much trouble guessing that the Eyeless Mage was someone he had killed.

Given his aversion to trouble, if he were to remain in Xuanwu Kingdom at this time, he would surely face more and more worries.

With the attitude that it's better to avoid trouble, escaping from here is definitely the best option.

Thinking of this, Gu Qianhan smiled.

That's fine too. He's too lazy to break ties with this rotten Hua in the future. It's best if everyone can live in peace this way.

"Alright, alright, why are you crying, you grown men?"

But Gu Qianhan's words made Jianglong Fuhu cry even harder.

The two men, with snot and tears streaming down their faces, were about to rush over and hug his legs, but Gu Qianhan simply kicked the Dragon Subduing Tiger away.

"I have OCD, damn it! You two idiots, stay away from me!"

"You two keep an eye on Xiao Shiyi for me, and I'll help you find that rotten-hearted Hua later."

At this moment, Jianglong and Fuhu, whose faces bore clear shoe prints, nodded repeatedly.

"Don't worry, Mr. Gu, we will take good care of Miss Plum Blossom."

"We'll take Plum Blossom Girl to catch butterflies later!"

Gu Qianhan responded with an "oh," then gently patted Mei Hua Eleven's head, signaling her to wait for her obediently.

The latter nodded obediently and then cheered him on.

"Master, come on!"

"Don't worry, I can beat those guys with just one finger."

...............

The headquarters of the assassin organization.

Gu Qianhan and a group of assassins were in a lounge.

The Black Ice Phoenix had already returned to the Frosty Snow Cold Waves, while Gu Qianhan sat cross-legged with her eyes closed, resting.

At this moment, many assassins were curiously observing him.

"I heard this young man is the pretty boy that Lady Manjusaka has taken a liking to?"

"To be honest, he is quite handsome."

"I can't believe he actually dared to participate in this Shadow Assassin selection competition. I think he's really getting a bit cocky."

"Shh, keep your voice down, lest he hear you and go to Lord Manjusaka to complain, hahahahaha."

"Hmph, you pretty boy who got here by taking shortcuts, you have no idea how cruel this world is."

.........

Gu Qianhan ignored the assassins' taunts and sarcastic remarks.

At this moment, he was repeatedly checking his system, and after confirming that he could not get any new talisman quests from these useless people, he sighed helplessly.

Sure enough, these guys have absolutely no substance.

Just then, a woman wearing a mask slowly walked up to them.

"The Blood Transformation Ranking Selection Tournament is about to begin, but before that, the leader will give you a small test."

Upon hearing this, Gu Qianhan opened his eyes and couldn't help but snort coldly after seeing the woman.

Isn't this the female robot envoy from the Kingdom of Ster who's always by the side of the assassin leader?

Just as the female robot was speaking, a purplish-black aura rushed towards them from afar.

In an instant, an air wall formed between the female robot and the group of assassins.

"Our leader said that if you can't even get through this wall, then you should go back."

After saying that, she stood behind and didn't say anything more.

At this moment, an assassin curiously stepped forward and pushed the transparent air wall with his hand, only to find that he could not move forward even an inch.

The assassin immediately showed a look of shock. Was he going to stop here today?

Another assassin walked over with an arrogant expression.

"Get out of here, you piece of trash. This wall is meant to separate me from you mediocre people."

"Shadow Assassins, I will have you all! You are not worthy!"

As he spoke, he strode confidently toward the transparent air wall and crashed headfirst into it.

The next second, blood started flowing from his forehead.

"what?!"

"Impossible! I'm a top ten expert!!"

Ignoring the blood streaming down his forehead, he kept pushing against the air wall with all his might, only to find that he couldn't move forward an inch, just like the person before him.

Not only them, but some other assassins also tried to enter the air barrier, only to find that they were all blocked outside.

Of course, some powerful individuals passed through with ease, as if they were nothing.

This fueled the fighting spirit of the assassins who failed to get in.

They were seen circulating their internal energy and even brandishing their weapons, trying to cross the wall despite being battered and bruised.

But all of this was in vain.

At this moment, their every word and action was being observed by the assassin leader and the five shadow assassins.

At this moment, the black bird smiled and looked at the red spider lily standing opposite.

"Hahahaha, Manjusaka."

"Speaking of which, your pretty boy, could it be...?"

Before he could finish speaking, Gu Qianhan easily stepped over the air barrier.

Seeing this, Blackbird coughed lightly, somewhat embarrassed.

"I didn't realize this kid was so talented."

However, none of them noticed that the masked assassin leader was staring wide-eyed in shock!

"That's...!!"
