Li Yuquan's eyes nearly popped out instantly after hearing this. He gasped and exclaimed, ”He's that Bloodthirsty Golden Lion? The butcher who carried the bloodbath of hundreds or so arm dealers in a certain city?”

”You call him a butcher, huh?” Wolf Head scoffed and smilingly continued, ”That's because you haven't met the more ruthless disciples in the sect. Let's save it for later. I'm hoping you can become the latest inner disciple so you can follow Spectre later.”

”Spectre? As in that lunatic Spectre?” Li Yuquan's face was now devoid of color as he screamed out yet again.

”If you dare to call him a lunatic right before his face, he'll definitely drill you in the training really good for three days straight. Those children soldiers who got trained by him for three days nearly lost a few layers of their skins. Well, you're not as good as them, though.”

Li Yuquan's lips wriggled a few times. His shock went through the roof.

It was Spectre—the number one assassin in the world!

The man was simply the devil incarnation in many people's eyes. Even the most powerful bigwigs in various countries were very afraid of his devil, for fear that they would appear on his contract list.

”You mentioned about children soldiers… and tens of thousands of them, right?” asked Li Yuquan with a dazed face. ”Is my son is going to be sent there?”

”Well, unless your son can stand out from tens of thousands of children, only then will he enter Sect Master's eyes again. Else he can only succumb to the breakneck training in the children's army. That's for sure since Tang Sect's custom heavily favors the strong and the weak can only stay at the bottom. Honestly speaking, even if you can become an outer sect disciple, I don't think you can enter the inner court as early as your son, though.”

Li Yuquan fell into silence. He realized that he really had a chance of becoming a carp that leaped through the dragon gate. The person who gave him this chance not only saved his life but also rescued his wife and son. It was very likely that he would also be able to make them—father and son—to become terrifying figures.

He took a deep breath and asked again, ”One last question. About that labor camp #1319 in Israel and more than 200 SSS criminals, they…”

Wolf Head raised his hand to interrupt him and faintly said, ”There's only the two of us now, so I can answer this question. But keep in mind that you must never mention anything about the Tang Sect to outsiders after you've become Sect Master's subordinate. The same goes for everything I just told you. You guessed it right. It's one of the Boss' deeds. He went into action himself then, and those people including Spectre have now become outer disciples and each carry out some missions from the sect.”

Li Yuquan was completely frightened after learning that Tang Xiu's men were all a group of outlaws, a bunch of monsters and devils that many people feared.

Wolf Head seemed to notice his thought and added faintly, ”If you think that Tang Sect is a den of demons, monsters, and lunatics, then you're completely mistaken. The sect has a rule that killing good people and bullying the weak are forbidden. We must treat ordinary people amiably but can treat your enemies with ruthlessness. The entire Tang Sect is like a sharp blade in Sect Master's hand, but it's like the sword of justice for good people and the death scythe for evil.”

The explanation instantly relieved Li Yuquan. But another issue immediately popped up in his head. These people are murderers, outlaws who can kill without batting an eye, can they behave themselves as Wolf Head says?

Late at night, at the Xue Family's residence in Dongshan Province.

Wearing a coat, Xue Guanzhong looked through the window at the dark night while listening to the strange melody with flickering eyes. When he came to the window, he saw the figure standing in the dark corner of the building and suddenly had a bad feeling.

It was Xue Zengmei. She was his daughter and the most outstanding member of the younger generation in the Xue Family, whom he had been tasked with an important mission to manage the family's security company. But she came back secretly and stayed in such a hidden spot now, while also summoning him with the strange syllables that only they knew the meaning of—the means they used to notify each other when something urgent happened.

”What's up, Guanzhong?”

On the bed behind him, Lin Ping sat up in a daze and asked, looking at her husband standing at the window.

”Go back to sleep. There's something I need to tend to,” said Xue Guanzhong in a deep voice.

Having said that, he headed to the door and soon appeared outside the building. He quickly entered the dark shade of the trees as the father and daughter tacitly walked toward a darker spot.

”What happened?” asked Xue Guanzhong in a very low voice that even Xue Zengmei in front of him was barely able to hear it.

”Tang Xiu wants to see you, Dad,” said Xue Zengmei.

”Tang Xiu? Which Tang Xiu?” asked Xue Guanzhong, stunned.

”Tang Xiu of House Tang from Beijing,” answered Xue Zengmei.

Xue Guanzhong's face changed and he furrowed his brows. ”He's the most brilliant junior of that House and also the owner of the Magnificent Tang Corp. What does he want with me?”
