Ancient Heavenly Path?

What is that?

Everyone present had never heard of this peculiar name.

Their eyes inevitably turned toward Lin Hai, filled with inquiry and a desire to know the answer.

Seeing Su Wanjing also looking curious, Lin Hai smiled and shared the secret he accidentally discovered during his days dominating the assassin world.

"Ancient Heavenly Path is not the heavenly path of Huaxia's civilization, but rather the name of a mysterious and special organization."

"This organization is extremely secretive, rarely seen by the public eye, and the exact number of its members is unknown."

"Over the years, I've encountered people from the Ancient Heavenly Path three times. It seems each time only one person appears, but even one person possesses terrifying strength, their intelligence devilish, skilled both in literature and martial arts. Their combat power is terrifying, their intelligence even more so; they are a group of crazily rational and formidable individuals."

"These guys are mysterious and formidable. In terms of one-on-one combat, without modern weapons, I can only manage a draw against them. But those guys seem to disdain using firearms and ammunition, relying solely on bodily combat."

"Moreover, people from the Ancient Heavenly Path have some very distinctive characteristics. They usually wear black robes embroidered with strange symbols, their faces covered with dense scars, making it impossible to discern their features, and their bodies are taller than the average person. The three individuals from the Ancient Heavenly Path that I've seen all averaged over two meters in height and possessed natural superhuman strength."

"I once witnessed a person from the Ancient Heavenly Path punch through the outer layer of a 12 centimeter thick steel plate of the newest United States tank."

Lin Hai thought for a moment, then added, "Anyway, those guys are very tough to deal with. Once they appear, they almost never give up until they achieve their goal."

After hearing Lin Hai's words, everyone was extremely shocked.

How could such a terrifying organization exist?

A single person's strength... to punch through the armor of a tank… unbelievable.

"Ahem, I forgot to add something."

"That guy did it after the tank had already been damaged by a grenade, barely managing to make the punch through."

People found this hard to believe as well.

"Uh, sorry, I forgot to mention one more thing, it was only a hole as big as a little finger, and afterwards, that guy's arm broke from exerting too much force."

Lin Hai awkwardly scratched his head, realizing he really wasn't suited for discussing such mysterious and serious topics as he tended to spoil the mood.

Everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief. So that's what it was; although it was shocking, it was still acceptable.

"How could I possibly have any contact with such people? Don't slander me, trying to trick me into misspeaking," Su Laoer quickly retorted.

Lin Hai sneered, "People from the Ancient Heavenly Path always wear a bracelet with a Silver Angel inlaid with diamonds on their wrists."

"My bracelet was just picked up from a random street vendor, no diamonds inlaid," Su Laoer said, not giving up.

"Ahem, darling, let me add one more thing. They generally like to put smaller versions of the Silver Angel bracelets on their servants and pets too, just like the kind you have, absolutely genuine, no deception."

Su Laoer's face was about to turn green, clearly feeling entrapped.

But his heart was also immensely shocked, never expecting this seemingly young mysterious man to know such profound secrets.

"Second, do you have anything else to say?" Su Zhentian spoke up, his tone turning icy and his expression gravely serious.

After all, an entity as dreadful as the Ancient Heavenly Path had dealings with a member of the Su Family, something he, as the Family Head, must address sternly.

"Err, let me just add one more thing…" Lin Hai spoke again.

Su Laoer's expression turned exceedingly grim, thinking, "Damn it, can't you just say everything all at once? This piecemeal talk is incredibly frustrating and too damn tricky."

"Heavenly Fragrance Grass and Life Extending Pill, in the Ancient Martial Families, are considered rare treasures, and also, these are somewhat special products of the Ancient Heavenly Path, you know."

After saying that, Lin Hai stood to one side, holding Su Wanjing.

Su Laoer's face underwent a drastic change.

"Second, what is your deal with Ancient Heavenly Path? Spill it and I'll spare you from death this time." Su Zhentian's tone was cold as he interrogated.

Su Laoer's face turned pale, and cold sweat dripped from his forehead. In front of his elder brother, especially when being scrutinized as if being seen through, left a bitter taste in his mouth.

"Damn it, what should have been a smooth affair, ruined by this mysteriously appearing young man."

"Seeing how affectionate he is with Su Wanjing, could he be Lin Hai?"

"That's not right, Lin Hai is just a security guard, and this mysterious man looks and feels completely different."

"Who exactly is this mysterious person?"

"Will the master come to save me?"

In just a few seconds, numerous thoughts raced through Su Laoer's mind.

"Second, come here," Su Zhentian suddenly spoke.

Hearing his elder brother unexpectedly calling him over, Su Laoer felt puzzled. According to his elder brother's usual way of handling things, if he found out he was a traitor, he would have him killed immediately.

Su Laoer knew, whether next to Su Zhentian or within this room, there lurked a hidden master secretly protecting Su Zhentian, which is why he only dared to secretively attempt poisoning but not openly assassinate his elder brother.

But what he did not expect was, while he managed to fool that mysterious master of the Su Family, he didn't fool this young man in front of him.

"Damn it, this damnable young man," Su Laoer thought bitterly, wishing he could tear Lin Hai into pieces.

"Come here!" Su Zhentian shouted angrily.

Startled, Su Laoer trembled all over and involuntarily crawled towards Su Zhentian.

"Second, a bit closer, I have something to tell you," Su Zhentian spoke slowly.

Su Laoer moved closer to the feet of Su Zhentian, thinking to himself that perhaps his elder brother might let him off this time, considering their blood relationship and brotherly ties.

"Second, I can't save your family. If you must blame someone, blame yourself for breaking the family rules."

From the slightly open eyes of Su Zhentian burst forth a sharp gleam, and a dagger appeared in his hand, swiftly slashing across the throat of Su Laoer faster than he could react.

Bright red blood splattered three feet high.

Su Laoer's eyes widened in disbelief, a choked sound emitted from his throat, and he slowly fell to the ground.

To his death, he could not believe that his own elder brother would indeed strike to kill him.

"Su Lao, strike now," Su Zhentian said seeming even weaker, speaking to the air before closing his eyes, motionless.

The other members of the Su Family present were stunned, then their expressions drastically changed, and they hastily kowtowed frantically, pleading, "Elder brother, please spare our lives."

A figure appeared as if from nowhere, clad in ancient cyan robes fluttering, hands moving swiftly as heads, just like ripe watermelons, rolled off their bodies to the ground.

Lin Hai's gaze suddenly focused, shocked in his heart: "The Su Family, also has a Supreme Expert!"

The figure came quickly and left just as swiftly; within five seconds, twelve members of the Su Family lay decapitated, lifeless.

The figure, standing firm, cast a glance at Lin Hai, a trace of appreciation visible in his aged eyes, nodded, then his figure suddenly dashed away, disappearing from sight.

"What a strong concealment technique!" Even Lin Hai couldn't help but exclaim in admiration, Su Zhentian truly was a formidable leader, possessing such strong backup, yet kept hidden until now.
