Lin Hai's heart was a stormy sea. Now that there was blood on the finger bone in his body, didn't that mean he had the chance to become a being that transcends legends in the future?

What kind of peak would that be? How powerful could it be? Could humans truly possess the so-called superpowers? Everything made him long to step forward and see for himself.

"Qian Sect is after the half finger bone in my body, which when combined with the one purchased by President Ouyang, will reveal the recorded Cultivation Technique. This one should be the Human Martial Finger Bone."

"These finger bone techniques, as long as one has good talent, have a great chance to cultivate a Legendary Expert."

Han Chongtian finished speaking.

No wonder Qian Sect was so eager to strike at South Heavenly Gate, so the finger bones were so precious.

"Qian Sect is poor, the guy at the auction today must be from Qian Sect. If they were a bit richer, they would definitely sell everything to bid for it." Han Chongtian's words were a bit disdainful towards Qian Sect.

"Where are the people from Qian Sect? How can we find those fellows?"

What Lin Hai was most concerned about now was the CEO's safety; everything else was nonsense. He had a finger bone and didn't covet others.

"I know a place that should be a gathering point for Qian Sect." Hai spoke.

"Should we go immediately?" Lin Hai asked.

Hai hesitated and then said, "Mr. Lin, this is not something you can be involved in. Your strength..."

Lin Hai ignored Hai and looked towards Han Chongtian.

"Don't delay, let's go together. We will try to protect you when the time comes," Han Chongtian said.

Hai hesitated again, then pulled out a gun and handed it to Lin Hai: "Do you know how to use this? I can teach you."

Lin Hai casually took the handgun, hooked it onto his belt, and shook his head in refusal: "No need, I've been a soldier."

Hai didn't bother to talk further with Lin Hai, feeling although Lin Hai was a good person, he had no sense of the bigger picture, and going on such a dangerous mission would only hold them back.

"Hoping this guy doesn't die too quickly, he's actually not bad," Hai thought.

Han Chongtian's men gathered very quickly. A phone call later, more than a dozen vehicles were already waiting outside the villa.

Everyone was ready to go. Han Chongtian patted Lin Hai's shoulder: "Brother Lin, I can see you're a loyal person. Don't blame me for speaking bluntly, be careful later. Supreme Experts are really formidable; we might even be completely annihilated."

Lin Hai heard the good intention, nodded: "Brother Han, thanks for the warning."

"Everyone, get in the cars, to the abandoned dock number seven in Zhonghai."

The engines roared and they left in a cloud of dust.

Sitting in the car, Lin Hai kept pondering how to deal with a Supreme Expert without exposing his identity.

The other people in the vehicle were all armed and ready, clearly belonging to the elite forces of South Heavenly Gate, as South Heavenly Gate was not a criminal organization.

Meanwhile, at a small cabin next to an abandoned dock, Xiaoya Ouyang woke up and shockingly found Han Yixia also unconscious beside her.

"Tell me, where did you hide the half finger bone?"

A woman wearing a mask crouched in front of her, startlingly the same woman she had seen at the auction.

"What do you want to do? This is illegal!" Xiaoya Ouyang said coldly.

"Wow, didn't see it coming, such a pretty lady has quite the courage."

The masked woman suddenly pressed a dagger against Xiaoya Ouyang's delicate cheek, lightly caressing it.

"What would happen if I were to slice a cut on your face?"

Xiaoya Ouyang's expression changed drastically. The damage to one's appearance, even the ugliest woman would find hard to accept.

"Who exactly are you? Why did you capture me!" Xiaoya Ouyang shouted angrily.

"I just want the half finger bone. Tell me where it is hidden, and I might let you go."

"I don't have it on me; the finger bone is in Han Chongtian's villa."

Ouyang Xiaoya wouldn't be foolish enough to tell the others that the finger bone was with Lin Hai.

"Beauty, you're good at lying, but unfortunately, you can't fool my eyes. You're lying."

The other party spoke, pressing the dagger tighter against Ouyang Xiaoya's face.

"You!"

"As the price for your lies, a scar. If you lie again, there will be a second cut, and so on."

After saying that, the woman tightened her grip on the dagger, ready to make a cut.

Suddenly, the sound of numerous cars could be heard from outside.

"Miss, someone has suddenly attacked from outside."

"It's people from the South Heavenly Gate!"

"There are about thirty people coming."

One of her subordinates rushed in, also wearing a metal mask.

The woman put down the dagger and said to Ouyang Xiaoya, "You're lucky, I'll deal with you later."

After that, she struck Ouyang Xiaoya's neck rapidly with her palm like a knife, knocking her out.

Lin Hai stepped down from the mountain of cars, took a deep sniff, and immediately determined Ouyang Xiaoya's location in that small cabin.

At this moment, about a dozen people dressed in black ancient martial arts attire and wearing metal masks confronted the people from the South Heavenly Gate.

"People from Qian Sect, release my daughter, or I will kill all of you today!" Han Chongtian said fiercely.

From inside the cabin, a slender woman came out and coldly said to Han Chongtian, "Sect Leader Han, or perhaps it's more appropriate to call you President Han, are you coming here with these nobodies to die?"

"Big talk, a mere girl like you isn't worthy of speaking to me, call out your family head," Han Chongtian scoffed.

"Hehe, Sect Leader Han, you are really out of the loop. I am the current Family Head of Qian Sect," the woman chuckled.

Han Chongtian paused for a second, and then asked:

"Are you that Qianhuan Yunbing?"

"It seems that Sect Leader Han still has some informants."

"Yes, I am Qianhuan Yunbing," the woman spoke.

"If that's the case, let's be straightforward. You're the Family Head of Qian Sect, right? Did you capture my daughter?" Han Chongtian asked.

"Yes, we captured her. Sect Leader Han, if you're sensible, hand over the half finger bone and the Bone Display Pendant, and I might consider sparing the lives of your South Heavenly Gate members."

Qianhuan Yunbing spoke confidently, seemingly viewing the members of the South Heavenly Gate as mere ants.

At this moment, Lin Hai's expression stiffened, and he vigorously cleaned out his ears to make sure he wasn't hearing things wrong.

Sh*t, Qianhuan Yunbing? I know her!

More than just knowing her, she's an old acquaintance!

To be exact, she's pretty close to her senior sister.

Qianhuan Yunbing, she's also an international female assassin. I didn't expect her to be the Family Head of Qian Sect in Huaxia.

What about her senior sister? Could she also be a member of the Qian Sect?

If her senior sister is also a member of Qian Sect, then there's no point in fighting; they're all old acquaintances.

Lin Hai thought for a moment and, to be safe, decided to rescue the CEO first.

Lin Hai quietly disappeared under the cover of the crowd, unnoticed.
