Chapter 56

"Did you know, how many people want to be his disciple but can't even find the opportunity?" Old Yun shook his head, seemingly marveling at Yan Yumo's good fortune.

At this moment, Li Ao also spoke up, sighing, "Little girl, the 'Kiss of Darkness' in your hand is a divine weapon that countless people want to obtain! Don't be ungrateful."

"That's right," Jiang Han interjected, his eyes gleaming as he stared at Yan Yumo, "If you think your dagger isn't good, I can trade you mine!"

As he spoke, a laser sword appeared in his hand. He lightly pressed a button, and a pale blue beam shot out. Unlike the somber 'Kiss of Darkness,' it was dazzling and captivating.

Jiang Han had already examined the 'Kiss of Darkness' and was astonished by the information he found. Calling it a divine weapon was no exaggeration!

**Kiss of Darkness** (Weapon)

Description: A weapon from the Heavenly Martial Continent, it has a mysterious magical power beneath its black exterior, capable of ensnaring your soul. The material is unknown, seemingly a rare and extinct ore.

Level: Epic

Epic!

The 'Kiss of Darkness' was actually an epic-level weapon!

Apart from a few unidentifiable items, this 'Kiss of Darkness' was definitely the best item Jiang Han had seen so far!

You must understand, the leap from Gold to Legendary is enormous, and the lowest exchange price for an epic-level item is a terrifying 10 million Dream Coins!

This number made Jiang Han's head spin. 10 million Dream Coins, who knew when he could save up enough, let alone exchange for an epic-level item.

"How about it? If that's not enough, I can add this." As he spoke, Jiang Han was covered in the Mad Rhino Battle Armor, his voice muffled from inside, "Do you want to trade?"

"No!" Yan Yumo was not a fool. After hearing these words, she knew the 'Kiss of Darkness' must be very precious. Although she thought Jiang Han's laser sword and armor were powerful, she firmly shook her head.

Jiang Han's Mad Rhino Battle Armor instantly retracted, and the laser sword disappeared from his hand. He regretfully shook his head, "What a pity. You've actually become smarter."

"Huh, your weapon and armor are so unique!" Li Ao suddenly spoke up, looking at Jiang Han in surprise, then turning to Old Yun, "Uncle Yun, I don't think I've heard of this type of weapon and armor... especially that sword, it seems to be made of energy, right?"

Old Yun shook his head with a bitter smile, saying, "I haven't heard of them either. Those strange things were given to him by his master, and I'm not very clear about them."

"What?" Li Ao was stunned, "Isn't he your disciple, Uncle Yun?"

"Yes," Old Yun nodded, "But he has another mysterious master whom I have never met. However, his strength should not be weaker than mine."

Li Ao: "..."

Li Ao was truly shocked. He stared at Jiang Han with his old eyes, trying to see him clearly. He knew how terrifying Old Yun was, yet this young man had a master who was not weaker than Old Yun!

Heaven! In this world, except for a few people, who would dare to touch him?

A disciple of two super experts, even if his current strength was not high, he would surely rise to a very high level in the future!

In that instant, Li Ao had the idea of trying to win Jiang Han over. Even if they couldn't become very close, they should at least become friends!

"Hey, you guys are off-topic. We should be focusing on the beautiful Yumo now!" Jiang Han, feeling a chill under Li Ao's gaze, quickly spoke up.

Yan Yumo: "..."

"By the way, the 'Kiss of Darkness' is indeed very powerful, but you can't fully utilize its power yet." The topic was successfully redirected. Old Yun looked at Yan Yumo, whose eyes were misty, the deep, weathered eyes seemed even more profound.

"He is a dancer in the shadows. The moment you see him, you will surely receive the kiss of darkness."

Old Yun murmured, as if reciting an ancient ballad, ethereal and lonely.

"Shadow Walker, Kiss of Darkness. These two names represent the honor of a generation of assassin kings!" When Li Ao mentioned these names, his eyes showed a mix of fear and deep respect.

Assassin King!

This title was undoubtedly very high! The entire Central Continent was ruled by three empires, and Emperor was the highest title!

However, the Shadow Walker could be called the Assassin King, a widely recognized title, which was a great honor!

Yan Yumo was stunned. She clearly didn't expect these two elders to have such a high opinion of her master, and for the dagger to be so powerful.

She thought to herself, a faint light flashing, the 'Kiss of Darkness' lying quietly in her palm, still sharp and deep. She lowered her head and stared at it, lost in thought.

Yan Yumo had always known that the dagger was extraordinary, but she never imagined it could be classified as a divine weapon, and that many people wanted to obtain it. She also never expected that her messy master would have so many people wanting to be his disciples.

Could it be that what she saw before was all an illusion? Was it something her master deliberately put on?

Involuntarily, Yan Yumo's mind conjured up her master's image: messy hair like a bird's nest, a scruffy face, eyes always half-closed from drinking, and clothes that hadn't been changed in who knows how long... It was hard to associate him with the title of 'Assassin King.'

"Are you... sure you haven't mistaken him?" Yan Yumo couldn't help but ask.

"I might make a mistake, but Uncle Yun would never!" Li Ao shook his head and said firmly.

"Why?" Yan Yumo was puzzled.

"Because... I once fought your master." Old Yun's voice echoed, filled with reminiscence and emotion.

In an instant, Yan Yumo's pupils constricted, her body tensed, and she stared at Old Yun in fear, the 'Kiss of Darkness' in her hand glowing ominously.

"Don't be nervous." Old Yun smiled and waved his hand, "I just sparred with your master, not as enemies."

With these words, Yan Yumo instantly relaxed, letting out a sigh of relief. In just a few seconds, she was drenched in sweat, showing how much pressure Old Yun had put on her.

"The 'Kiss of Darkness' is his symbol. By inheriting the 'Kiss of Darkness,' you are his only successor." Old Yun continued, "I believe the martial arts he passed down to you are not simple, but his ultimate techniques. Study them carefully, and one day, you might achieve what he did."

"Assassin King, huh?" Yan Yumo murmured, "No wonder he said he had no other requirements for me, except to become an assassin."

"That's right." Old Yun nodded, "He was an assassin by origin, a lifelong assassin, living in the shadows, the king of darkness!"

"It seems he trusts you a lot. But there's one thing I'm curious about: your talent isn't great, so why did he choose you?" Old Yun frowned, puzzled.

"I'd like to know too." Yan Yumo shrugged, "Becoming the disciple of the 'Assassin King' out of the blue, it's quite overwhelming."

Suddenly, a white light flashed in Old Yun's eyes, illuminating Yan Yumo. In an instant, she felt as if she was completely exposed, a feeling that made her both embarrassed and angry.

"Ah, I see!" Old Yun suddenly understood, with a mix of surprise and clarity.
