Chapter 421: Millennial Heritage of the Green Dragon Society

His heart gave a start as Leng Xuan’s arrogance a moment ago was actually deliberate, an attempt to provoke Qi Yue, to test the waters and see just how formidable the organization she belonged to really was. Now, hearing Qi Yue’s disdainful ridicule, he suddenly thought of something and said excitedly, "The Green Dragon Society, are you a member of the Green Dragon Society?"

Upon hearing Leng Xuan mention the Green Dragon Society, Qi Yue was shocked and stared at him in disbelief, saying, "What... what are you talking about?"

Leng Xuan, seeing Qi Yue’s shocked face, became even more convinced that his guess was correct. In this world, apart from the Green Dragon Society, what other assassin organization could be composed of a group of Internal Arts Masters? With this thought, his face paled slightly, his eyelids twitched uncontrollably, and his hands clenched into fists so hard that his fingernails seemed to dig into his flesh, a rage coursing through him like a skyrocketing blaze.

Under the moonlight, the veins on Leng Xuan’s pale face became faintly visible, giving him a fierce look. And in his icy eyes, suddenly burst forth two tangible streaks of murderous intent, cold to the extreme!

Honestly, Leng Xuan couldn’t forget his last mission, where three of his comrades sacrificed themselves because of his own reckless heroism. Yet, within the organization, which mission hadn’t he carried out alone and emerged victorious?

Only that time, he failed.

The reason for his failure was simply because he had been blinded, misjudging a person—that person was—Chu Zhixuan.

When Leng Xuan met Chu Zhixuan, it might as well have been the day he first joined the organization’s training camp. They trained together, ate together, shared the same dorm, and joined the Dark Sword Organization together, becoming inseparable brothers-in-arms.

However, what Leng Xuan never dreamed of was that on the night before he and those three comrades were to assassinate a certain naval commander in a foreign war zone, where they had been lying low for days, Chu Zhixuan appeared as well, claiming he had another mission and had come to check up on Leng Xuan, even inviting Leng Xuan out for drinks.

Naturally, Leng Xuan would never have suspected his best friend, Chu Zhixuan, of slipping slow-acting poison into his drink to secretly harm him. Thus, the mission was doomed to fail right from the start.

Fortunately, although his mission failed, Leng Xuan was at least alive and had managed to escape. Moreover, during his escape, he encountered Chu Zhixuan once more.

At that time, Chu Zhixuan thought Leng Xuan was at the end of his rope, hence he didn’t take Leng Xuan seriously, candidly revealing that he was an undercover agent from the Green Dragon Society embedded within the Dark Sword Organization. He also confessed to poisoning Leng Xuan’s drink with a slow-acting poison known as Pigeon Poison, which could make one’s Cultivation Level quietly fade away.

However, Chu Zhixuan wasn’t aware of the nature of the spell Leng Xuan practiced, the Defying Heaven Art. Although Leng Xuan’s Cultivation Level indeed was fading away, it wasn’t as fast as Chu Zhixuan had anticipated. Taking advantage of this, Leng Xuan pretended to be on his last leg, and at a critical moment dealt Chu Zhixuan a severe blow, which allowed him to survive by the skin of his teeth. Later, after returning to the organization, with the help of Dragon Head, he expelled the poison from his body.

When Leng Xuan disclosed to Dragon Head about Chu Zhixuan being an undercover agent from the Green Dragon Society, and inquired about the history of the Green Dragon Society, Dragon Head was astounded. After a long while, he told Leng Xuan that the Green Dragon Society was an ancient, mysterious, and enormously large assassin organization with a heritage of nearly a thousand years!
