"Ah! What do we do now?" Although it was their first ti eting Rose, the certainty in her voice still startled all the won.
"Don't panic, with these third-rate assassins, I could take out two with one hand!"
Seeing the girls alard and flustered, Xia Liu earnestly joked.
...
As Xia Liu spoke, the won stabilised a bit, but they still couldn't help worrying.
The Treading Snow Without a Trace Movent, second on the Blood List, were among the deadliest assassins globally.
However, no one noticed that, as Xia Liu boasted, far away, the figure of Treading Snow Without a Trace trembled ever so slightly.
He remained with his back to everyone, utterly silent.
Like a pine standing firm against a relentless storm.
"Hahaha! Ignorant fool, you may be well-known in the Central Region, but facing soone from the Blood List, you'll only beco a corpse to be assassinated!"
Rose laughed again, although she was no match for Xia Liu.
But she had been close to Xia Liu and had even made a strike at him.
Though she didn't know why he wasn't dead yet, the fact that she had made a move proved Xia Liu was weak enough to be taken down.
"Sister, my Brother Xia Liu is really amazing,"
Zhang Xiaoxue was sowhat irritated. Rose had never seen Xia Liu's strength and her presumptuous attitude was truly annoying.
"I admit that point, but he's still far from being a match for Treading Snow Without a Trace. In this world, only Red Dragon Shadow, the number one on the Blood List, can defeat Treading Snow Without a Trace!"
Rose, left with no choice, brought up Red Dragon Shadow again.
Red Dragon Shadow wasn't just a formidable presence in her heart; in the Underground World, it was a terrifying legend.
For from obscurity to first on the Blood List, Red Dragon Shadow took just one year.
Just one year!
This sudden ergence of Red Dragon Shadow naturally attracted the attention of the masters on the Blood List.
So countless people challenged him, yet very few returned.
Even those who did wouldn't disclose a single word.
As a result, the Underground Assassin World fell silent, and Red Dragon Shadow beca a legend.
"You keep ntioning Red Dragon Shadow. Have you ever t him?"
Xia Liu temporarily set aside Treading Snow Without a Trace, his interest piqued by Rose's constant muttering, and he couldn't help but question her.
"Hehe, a deity high above, how could soone like
have seen him?" Rose's face showed a trace of bitterness.
She too longed to witness Red Dragon Shadow, not just her, but any assassin in the Underground World wanted to et Red Dragon Shadow.
But how could gods possibly mingle with mortals...
"Comparing Red Dragon Shadow to a god is sothing only the weak would do."
"Hmph! What does it matter if I'm weak, you still got stabbed by
just now!"
Hearing Xia Liu mock her, Rose vehently retorted.
"Ah! Brother Xia Liu, you got stabbed by this bad woman?"
"Xia Liu, are you alright?"

Rose's confession imdiately made the won tense.
They had thought Rose was just another sister sweet-talked by Xia Liu, but she turned out to be there to kill him!
This contrast instantly filled the won with resentnt towards Rose.
"I'm fine, a little blade like that can't hurt ," Xia Liu said nonchalantly.
"That's a relief. So won, using their looks, engage in shaful deeds. They're scum!"
"Exactly, that kind of woman is the worst."
```
"What are you talking about! Who has done anything disgraceful? I am an assassin, killing him with ans is my skill!"
Rose furiously roared upon catching the implications in the won's conversation.
"Hmph! Despicable!"
Seeing Rose twisting the concept to that state of mind, the won knew that talking was futile and coldly snorted, ignoring her.
"You all better cherish the ti he can still breathe because in a little while, this man might be gone."
Rose covered her lips and began to chuckle.
If Treading Snow Without a Trace was taking action, it ant Xia Liu was a great evil.
Then, when Xia Liu died and she received the reward, Treading Snow Without a Trace would surely do good deeds. That way, she would have a chance to get close to him.
While her ultimate idol was Red Dragon Shadow, that being was like a god, unreachable. It was better to try to improve her relationship with Treading Snow Without a Trace, so she could persuade him to exert efforts for the poor people together with her.
"However, I feel that even if Red Dragon Shadow were to co, he might not be a match for Treading Snow Without a Trace."
Rose said softly, her thoughts drifting to that matter.
"Why?"
The won were puzzled. Wasn't it said that Red Dragon Shadow was the first on the Blood List? How could he not beat Treading Snow Without a Trace if he ca?
"Rumor has it, Red Dragon Shadow couldn't find joy in the world and so sealed himself away. The kind of sealing that cannot be undone. As such, his current strength is probably not even half of his peak."
"He sealed his own power!"
"Just like self-mutilation."
"Stop talking about that; let's think about how we are going to survive this ordeal."
Hearing Rose reveal the secret of Red Dragon Shadow, the won began to worry again.
Because if that was true, then there was no one who could truly defeat Treading Snow Without a Trace.
In the end, all the won turned their gaze toward Xia Liu, each of them hoping deep inside that this man could pull off a miracle.
"Survive? Just wait to collect the Nether Emperor's corpse."
"Rose was it? How about we make a bet? If I beat that long-haired man, you work for
for three years."
"I understand what you're thinking. How about this: If you really can beat Treading Snow Without a Trace, I'll be your subordinate for five years, but if not, I'll take every bit of your assets."
Rose had been paying attention to Xia Liu all along and had investigated his holdings, which were worth several billion to say the least.
"Cough cough..." Just as Xia Liu was about to speak, there was a dry cough in the distance from Treading Snow Without a Trace.
"Brother Xia Liu, he's speaking,"
"Xiaoxue, don't worry too much; Xia Liu can handle it."
"Tch tch, go ahead. I'll protect your won. Just don't die too quickly; you should at least struggle a bit and put up a fight."
Rose, of course, needed to take a stand now, otherwise if Xia Liu died and these won plumted emotionally and followed him in death, where would she go to take the money?
"A cough for what! Boy, I'm giving you a chance, co over here and apologize to my wives."
"Pff!" Upon hearing Xia Liu say that, Rose imdiately sputtered.
Indeed as arrogant as the Nether Emperor, fa isn't as impactful as eting in person.
"Hehe, should I call you Nether Emperor now? Or is it Red Dragon Shadow? Or Xia Liu?"
Treading Snow Without a Trace's eyes sharpened, his Eye of Killing Intent locked onto Xia Liu, and a tide of murderous aura swept out from within him.
The surrounding air seed to freeze, and the atmosphere beca oppressively tense.
"Did he just say Red Dragon Shadow?"
After the shock subsided, the won mulled over Treading Snow Without a Trace's words, and their eyes widened in realization.
"Senior Without a Trace, did you just say he is Red Dragon Shadow?"
Rose, who ca from the Underground World, was observant of intricate details.
She had picked up on the implications in Treading Snow Without a Trace's words, but she couldn't believe that Xia Liu might be Red Dragon Shadow!
Li Qianqian and the other won also interpreted Treading Snow Without a Trace's words, and involuntarily, everyone's gaze converged on the two n in front.
