After discussing for more than an hour, they finally finalized their plan. The only thing that James was
still worried about was Thea. Although May reassured him that although the assassins were cold-
blooded and ruthless, they had professional ethics -killing only those that the employers wanted dead
and never involving innocent people.
Major assassin organizations would blacklist those who involve innocent people while carrying out their
jobs.
However, this time it was not a simple case.
It was possible that a killer would attempt to harm Thea for the sake of money. “Ronald.”
“I’m listening, James.” “Send a hundred people to protect Thea in secret. I don’t want anything to
happen to my wife during today’s act.”
“Understood.”
Ronald immediately went to make arrangements.
With the underground intelligence network he controlled, it was easy to find Thea’s whereabouts. A
hundred experienced soldiers of the Black Dragon Army were dispatched. They dressed in plain
clothes and secretly followed behind Thea and Quincy to ensure their safety. May headed to Mount
Five Valley. James waited in the repair’s shop underground basement.
The evening arrived in the blink of an eye. James had arrived at the mountain and was less than a
kilometer away from the cave where May was hiding in advance. It was already eight in the evening.
Cansington, harbor, A ship approached and quickly docked. A man dressed in a black jacket and black
hat walked off the boat.
This man was the Black Snake in disguise. He wore a human mask and appeared to be an older man
There were many people at the harbor.
“Black Snake,”
“Has everyone arrived?” Black Snake waved his hands.
“The top ten assassins have arrived in Cansington and await your next orders.”
Black Snake took out his phone and sent May a message. After May received the message, she
quickly replied and sent her specific location to the Black Snake.
Black Snake wore a wicked smile after receiving a reply. Then, he ordered, “May is on the Mount Five
Valley. Pass on the instructions to get rid of her immediately. Also, inform them that the mountain is
definitely full of traps, so be careful not to be ambushed by the Black Dragon.”
“Understood.”
The man immediately went to make arrangements. Another person stepped forward and asked, “What
are we going to do Black Snake?”
The Black Snake smiled devilishly and replied, “Of course, to look for Thea. The Black Dragon’s
biggest weakness right now is Thea. Although we can’t kill her, we can still use her to force him into
submission.”
“Understood.” Mount Five Valley. In the lush mountain forest, James and Ronald sat together smoking
cigarettes under a big tree.
James received May’s message. After reading the message, he instructed, “May has already passed
on the location. The people from the Dark Castle should be arriving soon. Inform the others not to act
rashly without my order and don’t expose themselves.”
“Understood.”
Ronald immediately went to pass on the order. At the same time, Quincy and Thea were exhausted
after walking around for the whole afternoon. They chose a well-decorated hot pot restaurant in
Cansington to dine at and enjoy their food.
“Quincy.”
Suddenly, a voice sounded,
Quincy turned around and saw a man walking toward her.
The man appeared to be 25 or 26 years old. He was a decent- looking man dressed in a white suit with
delicate facial features,
“Caleb?”
Quincy was taken aback for a moment but quickly recognized the man. “Y-You’re Caleb Freeman?”
The man smiled, “I thought you wouldn’t recognize me anymore. I haven’t seen you in so many years. I
didn’t know you returned to Cansington.”
