Rebirth of the Peak Young Master-Chapter 378: Guess Again

So Yang Tian merely sighed, his Nascent Soul Middle Stage aura unleashed without restraint.

In an instant, within the still brightly lit bar, all the lights exploded one by one, emitting terrifying sounds.

As for the sky outside the bar’s windows, it churned violently as well.

The assassins, witnessing this scene, each wore an expression of stark dread.

However, not long after, their struggle to remain standing ended in vain. One by one, they trembled and knelt to the ground under the overwhelming pressure.

Even the elder appeared afraid. Though he didn’t kneel like the assassins, he could barely hold himself upright, stammering with difficulty: "You... who are you? Such an oppressive aura, it’s utterly terrifying. Are you... the one who won the top prize?"

"Chenn Bangguo?"

Yang Tian heard this and shook his head lightly, smiling as he replied, "Try again!"

"You... you’re not Chenn?"

When the elder heard Yang Tian’s words, he quickly responded, "Ah, yes, you’re right! Chenn Bangguo is sixty-six years old this year. You, looking like eighteen, surely couldn’t be someone that old."

Before he finished speaking, the elder suddenly froze, like a stuck tape recorder. He repeated "eighteen" several times before abruptly betraying fear in his expression, trembling in his speech as he called out: "You... you are the world’s number one, Yang... Yang... Mr. Yang!"

Mr. Yang?

A world myth?

The Yang Mr. Yang, who shook the aviation world by downing F-35 fighter jets? The one man who crushed East Sea disputes, forcing islands to bow in surrender?

The strongest man in the world?

A single man who slaughtered South Africa’s Evil God Kate and Lion King Leo, not to mention the undefeatable Tang Taisi from the kill list?

The one person who reached God-level strength, wielding unquestionable dominance in the world?

This young man, appearing merely eighteen, is in fact an unstoppable existence.

For a moment, those assassins kneeling on the ground were all rendered dumbfounded upon hearing the elder’s words.

They even forgot to resist. The terrifying pressure that enveloped them instantly pinned them to the ground.

As for shedding tears, none dared to cry at the moment. They lay on the ground, filled with regret and despair!

Blindly, they had provoked such a terrifying existence.

This was nothing but the reckless foolishness of an old man courting death!

Yet for Yang Tian, who had reached this level, he didn’t regard them as significant or worthy of disdain. Instead, he showed interest in the elder.

Seeing Yang Tian’s demeanor, the elder felt even more certain of his identity. He quickly lost composure, nervously asking, "Yang... Mr. Yang, you... you came to my Blood Kill operation today, do you know about its ongoing matters? My apologies for failing to recognize you earlier!"

"It doesn’t matter! I said I was here for Silver Wolf."

Yang Tian smiled faintly and suddenly spoke, "But right now, I find it meaningless."

"Meaningless?"

The elder was visibly perplexed.

Just then, a voice rang in his ears: "Should I address you as Long?"

Long? As the voice carried, no surrounding assassins heard it, but the elder’s expression changed instantly.

He was even more shocked than before.

He drew a deep breath, then laughed bitterly, saying, "I understand Mr. Yang’s intent, but please follow me to the inner room for a private discussion!"

The elder motioned with his hand.

Squeak, squeak!

Instantly, due to the elder’s release of Inner Strength, a secret door opened.

The assassins raised their heads in curiosity. Despite carrying out Blood Kill missions for so long, they had never known of such a secret door, nor suspected that the mysterious elder before them was anything more than a typical cultivator!

"Please, Mr. Yang!"

The elder bowed respectfully to Yang Tian.

Yang Tian watched and nodded slightly before stepping inside.

The elder followed closely behind, but as soon as he reached the dark entrance, he abruptly released his own aura.

In an instant, the assassins were dumbstruck! Because what they discovered today was shocking—this elder was not merely Innate, but the aura he unleashed reached the legendary peak!

At that moment, the elder delivered a cold glance and said, "Today, no one is allowed to speak of this to anyone else. Otherwise, endless bloodshed shall follow! Trust me, no one can survive until tomorrow if they defy Blood Kill."

Upon hearing the elder’s warning, the assassins broke out in cold sweats, the fear no less than what they felt earlier when facing Yang Tian.

After saying his words, the elder entered the secret door and sealed it shut.

Inside the secret room.

Descending the stairs, the elder saw Yang Tian already seated on the sofa, smiling enigmatically, clearly awaiting his response.

Seeing Yang Tian’s expression, the elder hastened his steps, making his way forward hurriedly while wiping his face to reveal a youthful appearance of a man in his thirties.

He approached and stood directly in front of Yang Tian, issuing a loud declaration: "Dragon Group Xuanwu Team Leader, Long Yuan, greets Admiral Yang!"

Indeed!

The elder who had been presiding over the Blood Kill affairs turned out to be one of the five leaders of the Dragon Clan, renowned for his deeds under Long Lin, Martyr Long, and Long Hou. None other than Long Yuan, Xuanwu Team Leader!

No one could have imagined the greatest killer of the continent.

This was a grand secret!

Upon concluding his ceremonial greeting, Long Yuan anxiously said, "Admiral Yang, may I ask you a question?"

"Ask away!" Yang Tian replied with a faint smile.

Upon hearing this, Long Yuan swiftly asked, "I’ve been stationed at South Mountain for over ten years, working covertly without exposing myself. Yet today, you recognized me at a mere glance. Forgive me, but... how did you determine that I was of the Dragon Clan?"

"A guess!" Yang Tian retained his amused expression.

Long Yuan’s face instantly froze with disbelief.

A guess?

How could he guess?

Yang Tian chuckled while explaining, "Was it truly difficult to guess? On the Blood Kill reward list, the top-ranked individuals among the Innate cultivators stood out one after the other. Considering such vast reward networks and resources, it’s impossible for an assassin organization alone to accomplish such feats. Just like the international Dante reward list created by the United States, so the Blood Kill reward list... if you think about it, only an extensive continental office could manage such capabilities!"

"And among the continental offices, the Dragon Group is specialized in handling cultivators. Naturally, that makes you a member of the Dragon Group! However, I am curious—why did the Dragon Group establish such a killer organization?"

"Ah... it’s nothing but a lack of funding!"

Long Yuan revealed a wry smile and explained, "Admiral Yang, as you know, we in the Dragon Clan are all cultivators. Annual expenditures amount to astronomical figures! Completely relying on allocated funds from above is unrealistic. Therefore, the old Dragon Head decided to rely on Blood Kill to raise funds for the Dragon Clan. Additionally, it allows us to observe and learn about every cultivator economically while not wasting personnel and resources. After all, assassins are the best intelligence agents."

Yang Tian nodded in acknowledgment.

Before assassins execute their missions, they perform thorough investigations. The intelligence gathered through Blood Kill has naturally formed into an extensive intelligence network.

Yet Yang Tian uncovered another intriguing clue from Long Yuan’s words, prompting him to ask, "Old Dragon Head? Who is he? The leader of the Dragon Group?"

"Ah... that’s a Dragon Group secret. Admiral Yang, please understand—I wish I could share, but I simply cannot!"

Long Yuan hastily explained, yet upon seeing Yang Tian’s brows furrow slightly, he quickly added, "However, Admiral Yang need not dwell on it. In recent years, the Old Dragon Head has been in seclusion. I believe when the time comes for him to emerge, his first call will surely be to you, Admiral Yang, at which point you will naturally learn his identity! After all, you aren’t an outsider!"

Seclusion?

Yang Tian heard this and chuckled lightly. He wasn’t one to excessively pry. Despite his curiosity, he chose not to pursue the matter any further.

Thus, he shifted the topic, revealing the true purpose of his visit.
