I Can See Through Everything

As Lu Qing prepared to stealthily ascend the mountain.

In the village, within a secret attic.

Several figures exuding powerful auras were discussing something.

"Master, we just received a message from headquarters this evening. They want us to find out Lu Qing's true strength in Cang County at all costs," said a small figure.

"Lu Qing again? How are we supposed to find out? In the past two years, four Heaven-ranked assassins have already fallen at his hands. Investigating his strength is just sending us to our deaths!" A tall man in brocade clothes growled impatiently.

Nowadays, just hearing the name Lu Qing made him irritated.

In the past two years, four Heaven-ranked assassins from their Seven Kill Tower had been confirmed dead at his hands.

Those people were dead, and their Seven Kill Tower assassins had always had little affection for each other, often being competitors.

He had no time to mourn for opponents.

The key issue was that all of them had set out from his place before dying, yet no intelligence about Lu Qing could be retrieved, leading to multiple scoldings from headquarters.

"Those useless fools! They occupy Heaven-rank positions but are so ineffective. They can't even deal with a mere Internal Organs Realm kid!"

"The old folks at headquarters insisted on issuing the Seven Kill Order. Now it's backfired. If that kid survives seven assassination attempts, let's see how they explain themselves!"

The man in brocade couldn't help but curse, including the headquarters in his anger.

But after cursing, he was still troubled.

All signs pointed to Lu Qing's extraordinary strength.

Even Heaven-ranked assassins were no match for him.

It was very likely that he possessed some secret method to see through the Seven Kill Tower's stealth techniques.

Otherwise, it was hard to explain why four Heaven-ranked assassins failed to not only assassinate him but also failed to escape or send any intelligence.

Yet, headquarters kept pressing him to find out Lu Qing's true strength.

How was he supposed to investigate such a deadly matter?

He had no intention of competing for a Heaven-rank position and did not want to have any connection with that monster!

Moreover, he wasn't willing to risk his life gathering intelligence just to pave the way for those little bastards at headquarters.

"Master, Young Master Zheng wants to see you."

Just as the brocade-clad man was troubled, a subordinate came in to report.

"What does that second-generation ancestor want now?" the brocade-clad man asked.

"He said he had a lot of fun with those two girls last time and wants something more exciting this time. He hopes you can arrange it."

"This useless trash! No skills at all, relying on being a direct descendant of the Zheng family to cause trouble daily, never doing proper business. Last time, those two girls almost died from his play. What more does he want?"

"In any case, he asked you to go out."

"Damn it! If I didn't have to keep a low profile, I'd crush him and turn him into a cripple!"

The brocade-clad man couldn't help but curse.

"Master, be careful. Walls have ears," the small figure reminded.

"Fine, I know. You go out first. Tell him I'll see him later!"

The brocade-clad man was just venting his anger.

He knew that headquarters was setting up a big plan, and every stronghold took a lot of effort to establish.

If he acted impulsively and exposed this place, he would face severe punishment.

So, he couldn't touch the Zheng family waste now.

Otherwise, drawing the Zheng family's attention would expose them.

Lu Qing silently sneaked up the mountain.

The Soul Rune perfectly concealed all his aura.

With the protection of his night walking clothes, even a Precelestial Realm expert would find it hard to detect his presence.

So, Lu Qing easily infiltrated the village.

Inside, the village was bustling and brightly lit, a scene of debauchery and indulgence.

This reminded Lu Qing of the Happy Fort he had destroyed, which he despised.

In fact, according to the intelligence provided by "Shadow," this place was similar to Happy Fort, a brothel and casino run by the Seven Kill Tower, used for gathering and exchanging information.

Of course, most of the people who came here for pleasure had no idea it was the Seven Kill Tower's territory.

Upon entering the village, Lu Qing activated his abilities, hiding in the shadows while using his soul power to sense the entire situation of the village.

"Fifty-seven warriors, twenty in the Tendons and Bones Realm, five in the Internal Organs Realm, and the rest in the Qi and Blood Realm."

Within a few seconds, Lu Qing had a clear understanding.

He was surprised by the strength of this seemingly insignificant stronghold.

This place alone had enough strength to crush any force in Cang County, except for the Wei family.

The Seven Kill Tower was indeed a top faction with formidable foundations.

"Let's start with you two!"

Lu Qing's gaze fell on two figures in a high pavilion behind the village gate.

Under his watchful eyes, the two clearly marked Seven Kill Tower members' identities stood out.

With a flick of his fingers, Lu Qing launched two steel needles using his concealed weapon technique.

Under his immense power, the needles shot out with a slight sound, instantly piercing the heads of the two Qi and Blood Realm guards.

After dealing with the visible guards, Lu Qing didn't stop. He sent two more steel needles towards a dark corner of the village wall.

Although it was dark and nothing could be seen there, his soul power sensed two hidden auras.

Their breathing patterns were identical to the two guards on the high pavilion, indicating they practiced the same technique.

Under Lu Qing's steel needles, the two hidden figures trembled, and their auras quickly dissipated without a sound.

The faint sound of the needles piercing through the air was drowned out by the laughter and revelry in the village, causing no disturbance.

After swiftly eliminating four guards, Lu Qing immediately moved towards the nearest warrior aura.

With the Soul Rune concealing his presence, he moved like a ghost and arrived in front of a Qi and Blood Realm warrior.

Seeing the Seven Kill Tower member label above the man's head, Lu Qing didn't hesitate, breaking his neck.

Thus, relying on his superior stealth abilities, Lu Qing quickly reaped the lives of the Seven Kill Tower members in the village.

In just over ten breaths, more than ten Seven Kill Tower assassins had perished at his hands, including three Tendons and Bones Realm assassins.

Given Lu Qing's current strength, there was no difference between Qi and Blood Realm and Tendons and Bones Realm; neither could withstand a single blow from him.

However, his slaughter couldn't continue smoothly forever.

In the Seven Kill Tower's stronghold, the sentinels were required to use a secret method to communicate at regular intervals to ensure mutual safety and alertness.

When Lu Qing broke the neck of the thirteenth Seven Kill Tower assassin, the village finally sensed something amiss.

Suddenly, alarm bells rang, and numerous lights illuminated the entire village.

Several powerful auras appeared in the tallest building in the village's center.

At the same time, a loud voice rang out.

"Whoever is here playing tricks with Yuanyang Village, show yourself!"

Seeing that he had been detected, Lu Qing stepped out of the shadows, tossing the corpse he was holding aside.

Plop!

Seeing the corpse fall to the ground, the burly man who had spoken narrowed his eyes at Lu Qing.

"Who are you? Why have you intruded into Yuanyang Village and slaughtered our people? If you don't give me an explanation, you won't leave here alive."

Lu Qing looked up at the building.

He saw many people standing there, some of whom were not members of the Seven Kill Tower, likely there for pleasure.

Seeing Lu Qing wrapped up tightly, concealing his face, and not responding to the village master's question, while brazenly surveying them, a Tendons and Bones Realm middle-aged man shouted, "Scoundrel, our master is speaking to you. Answer quickly!"

Lu Qing remained silent, using his abilities to carefully identify each person's identity.

Suddenly, his gaze stopped on a luxuriously dressed young man with a jade fan, his pupils narrowing slightly.

At that moment, the young man also closed his jade fan and smiled, "Master Long, it seems Yuanyang Village has encountered some trouble. Do you need my help? My condition is simple: just fulfill my previous request."

"No need. This minor issue can be handled by Yuanyang Village. There's no need to trouble Young Master Zheng."

Recalling the second-generation master's earlier request, the brocade-clad man's eyes flashed with disgust and refused.

"That's a pity," the young man looked disappointed. "But if you ever need help, I'm always willing."

"No need for such courtesy. You won't escape either."

Before the brocade-clad man could respond, Lu Qing suddenly spoke.

"I came here today just to settle accounts with the Seven Kill Tower. But I've changed my mind. You all must die!"

The mention of the Seven Kill Tower shocked the brocade-clad man and others.

Before they could react, Lu Qing's hand suddenly produced several steel needles.

The next moment, with a whizzing sound, the needles shot towards the people on the high building.

"Protect the young master!"

"Ah!"

"Master, save me!"

Amidst the screams, most people on the high building, except a few, turned into rolling gourds.

The luckier ones were merely pierced and suffered flesh wounds.

The less fortunate were directly pierced through the head, dying instantly.

What!

The brocade-clad man was stunned, looking at the steel needles that had penetrated heads and embedded deeply into the walls, shining coldly.

The steel needles launched by Lu Qing had almost caught him off guard.

This intruder's hidden

weapon skills were terrifying!

Young Master Zheng was dumbfounded, staring ahead.

Before him, a steel shield blocked the way, with a steel needle deeply embedded, almost piercing through, with only the tail visible, pointing at his face.

Seeing the cold, gleaming needle half a foot away, Young Master Zheng turned pale, cold sweat dripping.

He realized that without his guard's protection, this needle would have taken his life!

After fear came immense anger.

Who dared to attack him so brazenly?

But before he could vent his fury, a cold voice sounded beside him.

"Oh? You didn't die. Your guard is indeed capable."

Everyone was shocked.

Lu Qing had somehow already reached the high building, standing silently on the railing.

"Young master, stay silent and step back!"

As Young Master Zheng was about to curse, his guard pushed him behind, shielding him with the steel shield, and warily eyed Lu Qing.

The guard was secretly alarmed.

His shield, made of refined steel, had been pierced by a mere steel needle.

This hidden weapon skill was beyond belief.

Even the dark weapon masters in the state capital might not compare.

Where did this mysterious expert come from?

Facing the guard's vigilance, Lu Qing remained unmoved, his gaze shifting to the brocade-clad man and others.

"Are you the master of this Seven Kill Tower stronghold?"

The brocade-clad man's heart trembled, but he put on a tragic expression, "What Seven Kill Tower? You must be mistaken. This is Yuanyang Village. You barged in, killing wantonly, relying on your martial prowess. Aren't you afraid of being ridiculed?"

"You put on a good act, but it won't work on me," Lu Qing shook his head slightly. "Tonight, you all die."

"Attack!"

At that moment, the brocade-clad man suddenly shouted.

With his shout, several figures emerged from the shadows, attacking Lu Qing.

Simultaneously, the brocade-clad man drew a black short sword, its shadow flashing as he thrust it towards Lu Qing's chest.

The Zheng family guard's eyes widened.

This ambush was sudden.

He hadn't sensed these figures' presence until they appeared.

Such stealth techniques!

Recalling Lu Qing's earlier words, the guard wondered if they were indeed Seven Kill Tower assassins.

But before he could think further, his gaze was drawn to the clash.

The figures and the brocade-clad man all exuded powerful auras, reaching the Internal Organs Realm.

Facing such a group, even the black-clad man's strength couldn't prevail!

However, just as this thought crossed the guard's mind, the next moment his eyes widened further.

In an instant, an overwhelmingly powerful aura burst from the black-clad man.

The next moment, the brocade-clad man and the powerful figures were all sent flying.

"How is this possible!"

The Zheng family guard couldn't help but exclaim in shock.
