The modified tear gas released wasn’t ordinary gas, but a strange smoke. Its effect was that upon smelling it, sad memories would surge into one’s heart, making it difficult to control one’s emotions and causing one to cry.

Jun Changxiao had plenty of sad memories.

For instance, dying in a confused daze, or for instance, transmigrating in a confused daze to this unfamiliar Meteor Continent where he knew no one.

The saddest thing was that before transmigrating he was single, and after transmigrating he was still single!

The more he thought about it, the sadder he became. The more he cried, the more his tears gushed like a fountain.

Seeing the Sect Master so sad he couldn’t control himself, Xiao Zuiji’s face displayed utter collapse written large, but he still kept aiming at the Rain Pavilion headquarters’ cave entrance.

“Creak!”

Shortly after, the mountain gate opened.

“Whoosh whoosh!” Rolling white smoke dispersed outward and drifted toward the sky above.

Several birds had just flown through the smoke, then landed on the stone wall, their tiny eyes glistening with tears.

After Xiao Zuiji saw this through the eight-times scope, his eyes immediately widened into perfect circles.

My heavens!

Even the little birds are crying!

Just then, an assassin walked out from the cave entrance covering his face, tears flowing in torrents, splashing on the ground to form a trail of tear marks.

Xiao Zuiji locked onto the target and was just preparing to shoot when in the next second his expression became dazed.

Assassins rushed out from the mountain cave one after another. They cried like rain on pear blossoms, cried their hearts out, just like… little wives who had suffered tremendous grievances!

“Father, Mother, this unfilial child couldn’t be by your side to show filial piety!”

“Little Red, I miss you!”

“Second Uncle, I want to eat oranges!”

The assassins’ emotions were manipulated by the tear gas smoke. Sad memories surged into their hearts. They cried with what could only be called broken hearts and livers, what could only be called wailing ghosts and howling wolves.

Some couldn’t control their emotions even more, feeling guilty toward their parents and relatives, directly smashing their heads viciously against the stone wall.

People—who doesn’t have some sad memories?

It’s just that ordinarily they disguise it well, only remembering during sleepless nights.

Today, under the tear gas’s control, they completely opened their hearts, gave up their pretense of strength, and just wanted to cry their hearts out!

“Waahhh…”

Wailing cries transmitted through this entire area, suppressing the thundering sound of the waterfall’s rumbling waters.

Jun Changxiao heard the crying sounds, sad memories surging into his heart again. He directly sprawled on the ground crying his heart out.

The Sect Master cried in the back, the assassins cried in the front. Xiao Zuiji’s facial expression became spectacular, finally collapsing: “What on earth is going on!”

……

The tear gas canister released an enormous amount of smoke, enveloping more than half the cave at extremely fast speed.

In a short time, over sixty assassins covering their faces and crying in pain had gathered at the cave entrance.

Ordinarily appearing as cold-blooded, ruthless executioners who killed without batting an eye, they were all squatting down crying in heartbroken grief—this scene was truly unimaginable.

Cry if you want to cry, but why did they come outside?

Because they were professional assassins. The things they did every day were either assassinating others or on the road to assassinating others.

And now?

They were blockaded at home by someone else, abused so badly they didn’t even dare leave their spawn point. Of course they felt wronged and stifled!

This was sad business, so under the tear gas smoke’s stimulation, they lost emotional control one by one and walked out.

Damn it all.

We’re standing right here—come kill us if you’ve got the guts!

Xiao Zuiji didn’t even need the eight-times scope to aim now. Firing any random shot toward the cave would guarantee hitting a target.

“Rumble!”

Just then, the cave’s main gate closed again.

It was closed by assassins who hadn’t inhaled too much smoke and whose emotions hadn’t been manipulated, who then pressed against the inner stone wall while still crying loudly.

“Damn it!”

“What do you look like, crying and whimpering!”

Scorpion and Viper walked over, angrily shouting at the dozen or so assassins remaining inside the cave.

The cave dwelling where the two of them were located was comparatively deep. The tear gas smoke hadn’t been able to spread there, and then when the main gate opened, the smoke had all run outside, so they were fortunately spared.

“That Iron Bones Sect is too diabolical. In my opinion, we should hurry and request the Pavilion Master to come out of seclusion!” Viper said gravely.

“Sigh.”

Scorpion sighed, then entered deeper into the cave, stopping before a secret chamber sealed by a stone door.

After a moment of silence, gathering his courage, he said: “Pavilion Master, something major has happened!”

……

Ten minutes quickly passed. Jun Changxiao suddenly stopped crying, then with a ‘whoosh’ jumped up from the ground, saying in a heavy voice: “What’s the situation now?”

Just moments ago he had been crying his heart out, but in the blink of an eye he stopped the tears and put on a serious face. This change nearly made Xiao Zuiji faint.

“Sect Master.”

He said earnestly: “There are sixty-five assassins at the cave entrance, all squatting there crying loudly.”

“Move aside, this seat will go kill them.”

“Mm.”

Xiao Zuiji yielded his position. Jun Changxiao lay down, his eyes red from crying pressing toward the eight-times scope. He quickly saw the wailing assassins.

“I don’t even need to activate enhanced mode to pick them off one by one.”

He moved the gun barrel, his finger resting on the trigger. Just as he was preparing to fire, the stone door behind opened slowly.

“Hm?” Jun Changxiao instinctively aimed the crosshairs over, only to see a woman wearing black tight-fitting clothes walk out. Through the scope’s magnification, he could see her figure was extremely voluptuous, especially her chest which had great visual impact.

“*Sob sob*… Pavilion Master…” The assassins squatting outside crying called out while crying with grinning mouths.

Holy shit.

The Rain Pavilion’s Pavilion Master is a woman?

Jun Changxiao raised the eight-times scope, his field of vision moving upward, locking onto the black-clothed woman’s face.

A pointed oval face, a pair of phoenix eyes, two curved willow-leaf eyebrows, a delicate upturned nose, skin like congealed fat, lips the color of cherry blossoms—stunningly beautiful and absolutely captivating.

If Lu Qianqian was a cold and aloof snow lotus, then the Rain Pavilion’s Pavilion Master who walked out was a blooming enchanting rose.

Jun Changxiao said speechlessly: “How could such a beautiful woman be the head of an assassin organization?”

Just at this moment, the Rain Pavilion’s Pavilion Master suddenly turned her face. Her bright eyes flashed with a trace of coldness, as if she had captured his position.

Was he discovered?

Jun Changxiao didn’t particularly care. He openly and magnanimously shouldered his gun and stood up, shouting: “You’re the Rain Pavilion’s Pavilion Master?”

“Correct.”

The black-clothed woman answered, her voice clear and crisp, but penetrated with a cold quality.

During her seclusion, over twenty subordinates had died, and of the two gold-ranked assassins, one had been killed and one hung up. No matter how good her temper, she couldn’t accept this.

Jun Changxiao said indifferently: “So many subordinates died, yet you as the boss only come out now—truly too incompetent.”

The Rain Pavilion’s Pavilion Master said coldly: “Who are you?”

Although she had already learned from Viper’s mouth that the ambusher was very likely related to the Iron Bones Sect, she had to confirm it.

Jun Changxiao said: “Accepted money and goods from the Spiritual Spring Sect, repeatedly came to assassinate this seat—isn’t the Pavilion Master asking questions she already knows the answer to?”

This seat?

The Rain Pavilion’s Pavilion Master raised her willow-leaf eyebrows, saying: “You’re the Iron Bones Sect’s Sect Master, Jun Changxiao?”

“Correct.” Jun Changxiao said.

Scorpion and Viper who had followed out showed startled expressions, clearly not expecting that the one ambushing from the shadows wasn’t an Iron Bones Sect disciple, but the sect master himself!

The Rain Pavilion’s Pavilion Master smiled charmingly, saying: “Sect Master Jun personally taking action—this truly makes this humble woman feel overwhelmed with favor.”

“Bang—”

Suddenly, a thunderous sound came. Not far from her, an assassin who was crying had his chest directly penetrated, then collapsed limply on the ground.

Jun Changxiao said: “The head of an assassin organization that kills without batting an eye calling herself a ‘humble woman’—this seat feels embarrassed on your behalf.”

The Rain Pavilion’s Pavilion Master’s face was covered with frost.

In her heart, however, she was quite shaken, because the flowing light that had just burst forth was too fast. If it had attacked her, trying to dodge would probably be very difficult.

This is the Divine Might Firearm?

No wonder my subordinates were repeatedly assassinated by him!

“Sect Master Jun.”

The Rain Pavilion’s Pavilion Master calmed down, brushed her black hair, and smiled: “Offending an assassin organization is not a wise choice.”

“Bang—”

Jun Changxiao fired another shot, once again killing an assassin, saying indifferently: “You seem to have misunderstood. This seat didn’t come here to offend you—this seat came here to exterminate your Rain Pavilion.”
