Chapter 65

Zhao Xinxin looked at He Dong, who was lost in thought, and she slowly fell into her own memories.

She was an orphan, adopted and trained as an assassin by Li Lao Da. On her first mission, she met her master. She originally thought her master was a martial arts expert, skilled in the Golden Bell Cover and Iron Shirt techniques, but she never expected that her master would actually know magic.

Magic, not the kind of tricks used to fool children, but something truly astonishing. If she learned magic, she would definitely make Niulang, Fengjie, Juanjie, Heizi, Dilei, and even Fangfang envious. She would turn Fangfang into an ugly duckling once she learned magic.

"Master has been thinking for so long without giving me a reply. He can't be planning not to teach me magic, right? Humph, I don't care. He already agreed to teach me, and he even... even saw my pure body. If he doesn't teach me magic, I'll... I'll stick to him, and stick to him for life! Hehe!" As she thought about this, her face flushed as if she had a fever.

At this moment, He Dong was also very conflicted. Teach or not teach? If he taught, he might reveal his biggest secret, but he couldn't bear to see Zhao Xinxin disappointed and sad. After this ordeal, Zhao Xinxin had left an indelible mark in his heart.

Just as He Dong was torn between teaching and not teaching, a sudden strong fluctuation of fire magic elements startled him.

"How could there be a fluctuation of fire magic elements? Ah! Could it be the person who attacked Xinxin?" He Dong's expression immediately became serious, and he quickly moved to the edge of the roof, looking in the direction of the fluctuation.

He Dong, having extracted his pet's skills and talents, had an instinctive sensitivity to magic elements, enhanced by his Insight Eye. He soon spotted a suspicious figure at the hospital entrance.

This person was radiating a strong aura of fire magic elements, standing out like a bright light in the darkness among a group of ordinary people, particularly glaring.

"It's him! He's not dead!" Seeing this person, He Dong clenched his fists tightly, his eyes wide with anger, and his gaze filled with hatred.

Whether he sensed He Dong's gaze or not, the person suddenly looked up at the building where He Dong was, then showed a strange smile and quickly disappeared into the crowd.

"Don't run!" Without thinking, He Dong ran downstairs.

"Master!" He Dong's actions left Zhao Xinxin stunned. It wasn't until He Dong ran downstairs that she came to her senses and hurriedly followed.

"Lei An, send more brothers to protect my family!" As He Dong ran downstairs, he took out his phone and called Lei An.

"Master Dong, what happened?" Lei An was leading people to search for He Dong. When he received He Dong's call, he was initially relieved, but He Dong's instructions made him tense again.

"Sun Sheng is not dead, and he has somehow gained great power. He was the one who did this to Xinxin. I'm worried he might target my family again!" He Dong didn't hide anything and recounted what he had seen.

"What? Impossible! In that fire, even if he had nine lives, he couldn't have survived!" Lei An said, disbelieving.

"When I saw him, I was also very surprised, and I believe what you said, but he is indeed not dead!" He Dong said firmly.

"Alright, Master Dong, rest assured, I will ensure that your family is not harmed in any way!" Lei An promised.

With Lei An's assurance, He Dong felt slightly more at ease. After he went downstairs, although he couldn't see Sun Sheng anymore, the residual fire magic elements in the air had not completely dissipated. He Dong immediately followed the faint trace and quickly pursued.

Passive defense was not He Dong's style. He always believed that the best defense was a good offense. So when he discovered that Sun Sheng was targeting him, he chose to attack first, eventually uprooting Sun Sheng's family. Now that Sun Sheng was still alive and posed a significant threat, He Dong could not let him go.

"Where is he going?" Following the trace, He Dong found himself in front of an unfinished building in the suburbs.

At this moment, on the fourth floor of the unfinished building, in an unfinished room, Sun Sheng was arguing with a middle-aged man.

"Sun Sheng, I have already warned you not to reveal your abilities in front of ordinary people. Do you not listen? Do you know that your actions today have attracted the attention of the National Security Bureau Nine?" The middle-aged man glared at Sun Sheng.

"What about the National Security Bureau Nine? I don't need you to tell me what to do!" Sun Sheng completely ignored the other man.

"I am your sponsor and your superior. All your actions must follow my orders." The middle-aged man said, extremely angry.

"Do you even qualify to be my superior?" Sun Sheng said with disdain.

"Whether you qualify or not is not for you to decide; it is the organization's arrangement!" The middle-aged man said.

"Organization? Ha, what a bunch of nonsense, always hiding in the shadows!" Sun Sheng said with a cold laugh.

"You dare to blaspheme the organization? Fine, just wait for the organization's punishment!" The middle-aged man was first shocked, then glared at Sun Sheng with hatred and turned to leave.

"Did I say you could leave?" Sun Sheng suddenly showed a sinister look, his eyes glowing with madness.

"What? Are you planning to kill me? Don't forget, I am also a C-level ability user, you...!" The middle-aged man's tone was filled with disdain, but at that moment, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his forehead and fell to the ground, lifeless.

The middle-aged man never understood that Sun Sheng, also a C-level ability user, would dare to attack him, and even use a mundane gun.

"No matter how high your martial arts, you still fear a kitchen knife. No matter how powerful your abilities, one shot can bring you down. So what if you're a C-level ability user? Without any defense, you still die by a gun." Sun Sheng said with a sly smile.

"Sun Sheng, it's really you!" As He Dong appeared, he saw Sun Sheng's self-inflicted murder. Seeing Sun Sheng's smug look, He Dong couldn't help but roar.

"He Dong? Ha, you actually chased me here. Ha, great, you chose the path to hell when the path to heaven was open. Today, we will settle all old and new accounts!" He Dong's shout initially startled Sun Sheng, but he quickly recovered, his face showing wild joy.

"Settle accounts? Fine, I also have accounts to settle with you." He Dong said coldly.

"You want to settle accounts with me? Ha, this is the best joke I've ever heard. Do you even have the ability?" Sun Sheng laughed coldly, and a fireball the size of a person's head slowly formed in his hand.
