Xu Ling regarded Qin Fang with hostility, which was only natural. After all, Qin Fang had snatched Tang Feifei right from his hands. It would be a miracle if Xu Ling were polite to Qin Fang.

Therefore, a red light that signified animosity towards Qin Fang appeared around Xu Ling. The aura was not faint, indicating the hostility was quite serious.

Yet, the intensity of that animosity paled in comparison to the red light emanating from Nakamura Shun, which was like a chasm between heaven and earth. It was as if Qin Fang were his sworn enemy who had murdered his father, with the intensity almost coalescing into one.

This was what most puzzled Qin Fang, because it was the first time he had ever met Nakamura Shun. There seemed to be no reason for such profound hatred, as if Shun were intent on quickly taking Qin Fang's life.

"Understood..."

Ling Feng's warning was naturally well-intentioned. They were now brothers in the same group, and it was clear that Qin Fang had offended Nakamura Shun because of Xu Ling. Considering Shun's terrifying aura of bloodthirstiness, he was undoubtedly an executioner with hands stained in blood...

It was because of this that Ling Feng feared Xu Ling might use unconventional methods against Qin Fang. Such a warning was very necessary, as he did not want Qin Fang to lose his life due to a moment of carelessness.

For a master, even a moment of laxity could be fatal, as the killer would not notify you in advance...

Qin Fang certainly understood such kindness and immediately nodded, even though such a gesture might seem trivial to others. In reality, Qin Fang took Nakamura Shun even more seriously than Ling Feng did.

The source of his concern was the result of his reconnaissance—Nakamura Shun, LV5, Ninja and Assassin, Skills: Assassination Art LV4, Stealth LV4, Swordsmanship LV3...

Ninjas were a unique occupational identity in Japan, a branch of martial artists, but they underwent various Ninjutsu trainings, mainly engaging in espionage activities such as scouting, assassination, and stealth.

Such a profession was highly regarded in the Japanese martial arts world, and only truly gifted martial artists qualified to be trained as ninjas, at least in the modern era.

Like in Dragon Country, humanity had entered the era of hot weapons, and the use of cold weapons in combat showed signs of diminishing. Consequently, the number of ninjas dwindled, becoming more secretive...

But this made them all the more dangerous. The art of assassination, which involved hidden and sneak attacks, naturally suited the identity of a killer.

According to Qin Fang's knowledge, within the World Assassin Alliance where the highest-ranking Five-star, Six-star, and Seven-star assassins were, nearly a third were ninjas from Japan.

Although they could never become the top assassins, it was undeniable that their influence within the Assassin's Alliance was considerable. This was due to their formidable Assassination Art, the Indonesian (Indonesian art typo for Ninjutsu?) art, along with the katana, Ninja Darts, and even various small hot weapons, which made them even more formidable...

Qin Fang, now encountering Nakamura Shun, was not sure whether Xu Ling knew Shun's true identity, but without a doubt, this guy was a ninja and concurrently a professional assassin.

Ninjas were also martial artists, and many of them practiced Cultivation of Inner Breath. Without Inner Breath, they could perform assassination techniques, but not the so-called Ninjutsu Hiding Art...

This Hiding Art, referred to as Ninjutsu by the Japanese, actually originated from the Five Elements Escape Technique of the Toukotsu Sect in Dragon Country. It was just a shallow comprehension, which, after some modifications, had evolved into some sort of Ninjutsu—far different from the true Five Elements Escape Technique...

Unfortunately, the Five Elements Escape Technique was the secret art of the Toukotsu Sect, which was adept at Qimen Dunjia. This sect was ancient, as it belonged to another sect—Thousand Gate.

Thousand Skills, also known as the Art of Stealing Heaven or Deceiving Heaven Technique, where even heaven is dared to be stolen from or deceived, one can imagine how powerful such art would be.

However, Thousand Skills was an umbrella term, with many different branches. Qimen Dunjia of the Toukotsu Sect was just one of them, and the Five Elements Escape Technique was just a branch of the many Thousand Skills.

Therefore, this Ninjutsu was nothing but a minor derivation from the Five Elements Escape Technique of the Thousand Skills...

Qin Fang pondered whether his Cheating Skills combined with his Scouting Skill could see through Nakamura Shun's Stealth Art...

Yet, without having actually taken action, even Qin Fang couldn't speculate about this.

Such strong hostility, coupled with the fact he was with Xu Ling, Qin Fang guessed Nakamura Shun would surely make a move against him. Being at LV5, one level above Qin Fang, ninjas excelled in stealth and assassination, but direct combat was surely their greatest weakness...

Therefore, if Nakamura Shun attacked him, it would definitely be from behind.

Currently, Qin Fang had few people by his side in Capital City, with only Shen Liang secretly following. Although Shen Liang was capable, he was clearly no match for Nakamura Shun.

"Should I ask Brother Qin Shou to come over?"
