"Expert?" Ling Chen asked in confusion, "What expert?" As soon as he finished speaking, Ling Chen suddenly realized sothing and exclaid in surprise: "Are you talking about Liu Dongsheng as the expert?"
Seeing He Ziyun and Kaelina both nodding, Ling Chen grew even more puzzled. He had fought side by side with Liu Dongsheng, and while it was undeniable that Liu Dongsheng had skills, they were far from reaching the level of a true expert. Moreover, Liu Dongsheng did not show any signs of being a martial artist.
Therefore, he couldn’t understand why even He Ziyun would consider Liu Dongsheng an expert.
As he was pondering, he heard He Ziyun say: "Liu Dongsheng even managed to kill an expert from the Dragon List. Isn’t that enough to be considered an expert?"
Killed a Dragon List expert?
Upon hearing this news, not only Ling Chen but also Qiu Yong and the others showed a hint of curiosity, and asked interestedly, "Mr. He, could it be that Liu Dongsheng is an expert who has the strength of the Dragon List but has yet to be included on it?"
"I can’t be sure," replied He Ziyun. "Liu Dongsheng doesn’t seem like soone who has trained in martial arts, but his skills are indeed impressive. Frankly, I really want to know how he does it. If he hadn’t passed out, I would have liked to ask him myself."
Seeing everyone’s keen interest in Liu Dongsheng’s identity, Ling Chen said, "Wanting to know who he is isn’t difficult, just call over Hu Fei and ask him. He knows the most about Mr. Liu’s background."
Speak of the devil, and he shall appear!
As they were talking, they saw Hu Fei briskly heading towards the lab.
"Hey! Fatty, why are you running so fast?" Ling Chen called out.
Hu Fei didn’t turn back, as if he hadn’t heard Ling Chen’s call, and directly rushed into the lab. Seeing this, Ling Chen simply took Qiu Yong and the others to the lab as well.
In the lab, Liu Dongsheng was lying on a bed with Zhu Xiaozhu and several other dical researchers treating him.
After asking a few questions, Hu Fei learned that Liu Dongsheng’s condition was not life-threatening, which relieved him quite a bit.
"Fatty," approaching closer, Ling Chen looked at the bedridden Liu Dongsheng and asked: "Who exactly is he? You’ve never ntioned him to before."
"He..." Hu Fei hesitated, seeming reluctant to reveal Liu Dongsheng’s real identity.
"You don’t need to keep hiding it for him," intervened Kaelina. "I think I already know who he is." Looking at Ling Chen, she said, "If I ntion his na, I believe you must have heard of it."
Hearing this, Hu Fei chuckled wryly and said: "You’re an assassin, and I knew I couldn’t fool your eyes. Well, since you’ve already guessed his identity, there’s no point in hiding it from you anymore. Liu Dongsheng is his real na, that’s true, but he used to have a nickna, called ’Ghost Tiger.’ Anyone who’s been in this line of work should have heard this nickna."
Ghost Tiger?
At this revelation, the expressions of everyone present changed simultaneously.
It’s actually Ghost Tiger!
Ling Chen widened his eyes in disbelief as he looked at the unconscious Liu Dongsheng. He had never expected that this unimpressive looking man was actually a world-famous assassin!
"It’s hard to believe he is actually Ghost Tiger," said Xu Ming with a tsk.
A surprised Ling Chen asked, "Second Brother, you’ve heard of him too?"
Xu Ming nodded and said, "Heard of him, yes. That was many years ago. I was just over twenty years old then, probably around his age. At that ti, I was just a rookie, while he was already a top-tier world-known assassin."
Considering this, Ling Chen thought that made sense. Xu Ming and Liu Dongsheng were about the sa age, both in their forties or fifties.
Ghost Tiger! Once the number one on the assassin list. If Blood Wolf is a legend of the assassin world, then Ghost Tiger is the myth of the assassin world. There were so many stories about Ghost Tiger circulating in the assassin community, and almost every assassin idolized him as their role model and goal.
Ghost Tiger beca the number one assassin in the world before he was even twenty. Ling Chen knew he had killed his fair share of people over the years, but compared to Ghost Tiger, it was like comparing a minor magician to a grand sorcerer with no comparison. It was said that by the age of twenty, the number of people who died by Ghost Tiger’s hands had already exceeded three hundred.
Ghost Tiger was famous for his brutality, ruthlessness, and extraordinary skills.
The nickna ’Ghost Tiger’ perfectly represented his personality.
’Ghost’ described his speed, ghostly and elusive, making him hard to grasp. ’Tiger’ described his ferocity. Facing an enemy, Ghost Tiger showed no rcy, cutting down all, leaving no survivors. However, Ghost Tiger had one principle: he did not kill won and children.
Sotis, to deal with a powerful leader, other assassins might opt for assassination, first devising a ticulous plan and then executing it. But Ghost Tiger wouldn’t bother with such complexities; he liked to keep things straightforward and brutal, directly storming into the enemy’s headquarters, slaying gods if they blocked his path, and Buddha if they stood in his way. Anyone who dared to hinder his mission had to die.
Over the next twenty years, Ghost Tiger undertook hundreds, if not thousands, of missions. So, in terms of killing, no one could surpass Ghost Tiger.
In those days, governnts from various countries tried to capture Ghost Tiger, an international fugitive, dispatching countless manpower and resources. But without exception, not only did they allow Ghost Tiger to escape easily, but they also suffered heavy casualties.
"Ghost Tiger’s skills are incredibly formidable; I have no idea where he learned them from," Qiu Yong remarked.
Continuing, Qiu Yong adjusted his words and said, "There are so things you might not have heard of. Initially, governnts from various countries couldn’t handle Ghost Tiger and had to reluctantly seek help from the Huaxia governnt, hoping that Huaxia could dispatch so true experts to assist in capturing Ghost Tiger. After all, everyone knew that Huaxia was the real dwelling place of hidden dragons and crouching tigers, filled with nurous experts. At that ti, the Huaxia governnt agreed to this request and selected a few experts from the Martial Arts world, one of whom was my old friend, who told about this."
"At first, the plan went very smoothly. They tracked down Ghost Tiger’s whereabouts, secretly followed him, and when Ghost Tiger reached a secluded place, several experts attacked simultaneously, surrounding him, ready to capture him. You know, the experts from Huaxia are extrely proud when they step outside their country. At that ti, those experts didn’t take Ghost Tiger seriously at all, considering him rely an assassin who knew so killing tricks but not martial arts. However, exactly because of this reason, those experts were disastrously defeated by Ghost Tiger, and only my friend barely escaped with his life. Unfortunately, although he survived, both his legs were crippled, confining him to a wheelchair for life."
Taking a deep breath, Qiu Yong let out a sigh, seemingly feeling sorry for his old friend.
