Xia Street was not the name of a street, but the name of the night market in the center of Xiagong City.
There were more than ten small alleys intersecting with each other. The alleys were not wide, but it was crowded every night and it was very lively.
Usually, there would be shops and stalls opening at around five in the afternoon. However, it would only get crowded after dark.
It was about 6.30 pm when Lin Huang and Lin Xin walked over from the hotel. Dusk had started to fall.
The red lanterns on Xia Street were lit up one by one. It made Lin Huang feel that it was China style.
"These lanterns are so beautiful!" It was Lin Xin's first time seeing such a scene and she felt that it was a novelty.
"Let's find something to eat first. We'll walk around after we're full." Lin Huang suggested. The reason why they had not had dinner yet was to leave enough space for them to taste the delicacies here.
As they entered Xia Street, Lin Huang and Lin Xin were attracted by the variety of interesting things. Other than food, there were many things to drink and play. There were even performances by the roadside.
Under the crowded crowd, a few pairs of eyes locked onto Lin Huang and they were slowly approaching him.
Lin Huang could vaguely feel that something was wrong. He felt that there was a murderous intent towards him nearby. It was faintly discernible and he could not tell where it was coming from.
Seeing that there was a clothing store not far away, he pulled Lin Xin and walked in. Almost at the same time when he stepped into the clothing store, he summoned Bai.
"Brother, what's wrong?" Lin Xin was familiar with Bai. Seeing that Lin Huang had summoned him, she knew that Lin Huang had entered battle mode.
"Nothing much, pick a piece of clothing for Bai," Lin Huang said as he took a cloak with a hood and put it on Bai.
Bai tried it on and it fit perfectly. His eye-catching white hair was covered by the brim of the hood.
"Boss, I'll take this." Lin Huang pointed at the cloak that Bai was wearing and paid for it.
Bai did not take it off after putting it on. Instead, he covered himself with the cloak and followed Lin Huang and Lin Xin out of the store.
Although it was summer, there were many people in weird clothes in this world. Nobody cared about Bai who was wearing a cloak.
When they saw Lin Huang coming out of the clothing store, they quickly approached him.
But just as they moved, a green light flashed in front of them, and they disappeared in an instant.
The speed at which the green light appeared was too fast. The people around them didn't notice anything unusual at all. They didn't even notice that someone had disappeared.
"Hmm? Was it just an illusion? "
Walking out of the clothing store, Lin Huang felt a little strange. The killing intent from before had actually disappeared without a trace.
"This guy is quite alert. He's only an iron-level but he can sense the killing intent of a Silver Badge Assassin." In front of a stall not far away, a middle-aged man smirked. He was wearing a green robe that reached his waist. He was handsome and had a unique aura. However, it was strange that he was standing there as if nobody could see him.
Although the killing intent had disappeared, Lin Huang did not let his guard down. He walked on the left side of Lin Xin while Bai protected Lin Xin on the right side, protecting Lin Xin in the middle.
"Brother, let's go to that shop!" Lin Xin suddenly pointed at a barbecue shop.
"Sure." Lin Huang saw that there were many people queuing at the barbecue shop when it was just opened.
"I've read about this shop before. I heard that it has been opened for 56 years and three generations of its descendants have been running it until now." Lin Xin explained to Lin Huang.
"There are so many people queuing when it just opened. It must have a good reputation." Lin Huang nodded and joined the queue with Lin Xin.
As soon as he joined the queue, Lin Huang frowned. He could sense the killing intent again.
It was crowded and he could not tell where the killing intent was coming from. However, he could feel that the killing intent was getting closer.
He tensed up and was just about to make a move when the killing intent suddenly disappeared.
"It can't be my illusion this time!" Lin Huang was sure that the killing intent was real. However, he had no idea why it had disappeared. It felt like those guys who wanted to make a move on him had been silently eliminated by someone.
At a corner not far away from Lin Huang, a man in a suit dialed a number.
"Boss, the second team has been killed. We haven't found out who did it yet … "As soon as the man in the suit finished speaking, a man in a green robe appeared in front of him and looked at him with a smile.
"You are …" The man in the suit was stunned. He recognized the man.
"Ask your boss to come out and talk. You're not qualified." The man in the green robe smiled faintly.
"Who is it?" A hoarse voice came from the other side of the communicator.
"It's …" The man in the suit stopped talking. A translucent green wolf had grabbed his throat.
"Come out and meet me. Won't you know who I am?" The man in the green robe said calmly.
"Sure. I want to know who's causing trouble," the boss on the other side of the communicator replied after a moment of silence.
"Alright, I'll meet you at the clock tower. See you there."
After hanging up the call, the translucent wolf's head suddenly enlarged. It opened its mouth and swallowed the man in the suit.
The people who were less than two meters away did not notice what was happening. It was as if the man in the suit and the man in the green robe were invisible.
The man in the green robe tiptoed and his body turned into a stream of green light. In an instant, he arrived at the bottom of an ancient clock tower on Summer Street.
He looked up and saw a man in a black robe standing at the top of the clock tower. His entire face was covered by the shadow of his hat and his face could not be seen clearly.
"It's you, Feng Zhuoran." The man in the black robe recognized Feng Zhuoran immediately. There was fear in his voice.
"It's summer and you're wrapped up so tightly. Don't you feel hot?" Feng Zhuoran teased.
"Are you sure that the Leng family wants to protect that kid?" The man in the black robe ignored his teasing and asked.
"I'm here. What do you think?" Feng Zhuoran shrugged his shoulders.
"What's the relationship between that kid and the Leng family?" The man in the black robe asked again.
"I have to ask you this as well. Why would a transcendent like you be sent to kill an iron-level kid just because of the death of an insignificant person? Don't tell me that small fry has a secret identity? "Feng Zhuoran asked with a smile on his face.
"So, the Leng family wants to get involved?" The man in the black robe ignored Feng Zhuoran's question and asked again.
"The order I received was to kill all the attackers!" Feng Zhuoran suddenly attacked as soon as he finished speaking.
With a wave of his long sleeves, countless giant green wolves suddenly condensed in the void from all directions and pounced towards the black-robed man one after another.
"Feng Zhuoran, are you trying to start a war?" The man in the black robe shouted and a bloody sword sliced through the air. It tore a path through the giant wolves and turned into a bloody glow as it flew far away.
