The nest of wolf gang turn quiet, the festive atmosphere had long gone everything become oddly quiet only a few members of the wolf gang who stands outside guarding the front gate not long after a woman with black hood and red mask appear, they open the door for that woman as usual.

The woman in the mask walks cautiously everything is the same but somehow this place it's too quiet but she pushes that thought behind her since it got nothing to do with her when she enters the room only the thin man presence the masked woman frown "Where're the others?" she asked.

"Busy!" the thin man answer briefly.

The masked woman scoffed "Where's the token?" she asked again.

"There's no token, just this" he shoves the necklace on the table.

"What you mean, there's no token?" the masked woman becomes upset.

The thin man also furious, she accepts this job because he thought this job is simple and lucrative who knew it would bring a great demon knocking on their door, he feel lie and cheated.

"She doesn't have it, this is all she got, you want it or not!"

The masked woman seems confused but she didn't say anything else, she grabs the necklace and throws a big pouch on the table "This is the payment for your job" the masked woman turn around and left the room.

Unbeknown by her people with the black uniform is watching her, some already following her.

Meanwhile, Zhao Li Xin got out from his hiding he opens the pouch he sees fifty taels of silver inside the pouch with an indescribable expression.

"My whole world only worth fifty taels of silver" he murmured in quiet voice then suddenly he chuckle and he laughs his laughter is getting louder and louder, the thin man gulped nervously he feel this beautiful man just get crazier.

Silently he takes a few steps back but than Zhao Li Xin throe the silver tael on the thin man head, the silver tael pierce the thin man skull and he falls on the floor.

"Bring these taels I want to bury them with this" Zhao Li Xin quietly left the room suddenly he halt "Kill everyone in here and burn this place, I don't want anything left" then he left the room with Mong Ki following him

"Yes, Milord!"

While he walks in calmed pace behind him people scream in agony they scream and begged, the blood spilled and bones breaking people run in frenzy one by one they fall on the ground, the beast whimper in fear and the fire lit up, Zhao Li Xin face remains placid his heart turns cold as if he was floating in the darkness he can't differentiate the top or bottom everything is stagnant.

"Where that masked woman goes," he asked indifferently.

"To Sun Jan city Milord" Mong Ki replied.

Zhao Li Xin becomes silent, suddenly a gold mask appears on his hand, he never wears this masked since he met her because he doesn't need to hide his identity and mostly because Lory said she like his face but she's not around anymore, the only person he wants to see his face is not here anymore.

He wears the gold mask on his face leaving old his cold dark eyes "Let's kill someone..." he hissed.

"Yes, Milord!" Mong Ki nods his head firmly.
