At the top of the hall, there were four figures, all dressed in black, hanging upside down from the high ceiling like bats.

Due to the Jiangnan Grand Hotel's hall reaching heights of over ten meters, coupled with the current charity gala, the lighting was not particularly bright.

Even with lighting, it was mostly concentrated on the stage, so no one noticed when those black-clothed figures silently perched on the ceiling upside down like bats.

Just as Qin Yang lifted his head to look at the ceiling, those four inverted black figures finally moved slightly, with one pair of icy eyes filled with killing intent looking over at Qin Yang.

"Discovered by a Chinese, kill!"

The black-clad ninja's eyes flashed coldly, and he shouted harshly in Japanese; his voice sounded somewhat old.

As he spoke, the black-clad ninja reached behind him and pulled out a razor-sharp Samurai Short Saber from Japan.

Without the slightest hesitation, the black-clad ninja swung the Samurai Short Saber in his hand towards the hall's top, severing the massive crystal chandelier.

Swoosh!

With a sharp blade arc, the connection where the massive crystal chandelier linked to the ceiling was cut, and then the enormous chandelier came crashing down amidst the crowd's screams.

Boom~!!

The huge crystal chandelier crashed heavily onto a table in the hall, shattering the lights and crystal fragments into pieces.

Without the giant crystal chandelier, the lighting on-site dimmed even further.

"Ah!!"

At this moment, the scene was filled with screams; not only women but even the seasoned entrepreneurs were all taken aback with shock.

The scene descended into chaos, wine glasses filled with grape wine and plates with delicacies were knocked to the floor amidst the women's screams in the hall.

The crowd frantically surged towards the outside of the hall in a panic.

"Ninjas from Japan?"

Qin Yang looked towards the ceiling, with a cold gleam flashing in his eyes.

"Kill!"

The eyes of the elderly black-clad figure glinted as he coldly shouted in Japanese.

Swoosh! Swoosh!

As the old man's voice fell, two of the black-clad ninjas kicked off the ceiling, springing up like frogs.

"The Asakawa Clan's scum, truly reckless."

Qin Yang said coldly.

Instinctively, Qin Yang thought these four Japanese ninjas were targeting him, but then he realized they seemed not to be coming for him.

Because, those two black-clad ninjas didn't even glance at him, their figures were shooting fiercely towards Xu Mengjie on the stage!

"Ah."

On the stage, Xu Mengjie's pretty face turned pale with fright, and she let out a scream.

"Yun Duo, quickly protect Meng Meng!"

At this moment, Xu Xinghan, who sat in the front row, with a usually calm and determined face, was also in shock, urgently speaking to the girl standing behind him.

The girl called "Yun Duo," standing behind Xu Xinghan, nodded hurriedly upon hearing his words.

Boom!

A mighty Inner Power surged around Yun Duo; she flicked her toes, and her figure shot towards the two black-clad ninjas attacking Xu Mengjie like a cannonball.

"Kurama, stop her!"

The elderly black-clad figure spoke to the last remaining black-clad ninja who was still hanging upside down on the ceiling with him.

"Yes, Senior Aozora."

The black-clad ninja named Kurama nodded, his eyes flickering with cold light as he also drew a Samurai Short Saber from his back.

Swoosh!

The sharp short saber in Kurama's hand slashed through the air, intercepting Yun Duo.

Seeing the fierce blade arc coming at her, Yun Duo's face changed, her figure suspended in mid-air as her powerful Inner Power surged around her, allowing her to dodge the attack.

At this moment, the two black-clad ninjas attacking Xu Mengjie were already upon her, and it was too late for Yun Duo to rescue her.

"Take her alive!"

Seeing this, the elderly black-clad figure Aozora spoke in Japanese to the two black-clad ninjas.

Upon hearing it, one of the two black-clad ninjas put away his ninja dart and formed a claw with his hand, reaching for Xu Mengjie's fair neck.

"Xu Xinghan, hand over that item, or your precious daughter might not survive for long!"

The cold gleam flashed in the eyes of the black-clad figure Aozora, and he sneered coldly.

At this moment, Xu Xinghan's face turned extremely ugly, his eyes full of deep hatred and overwhelming anger as he looked at that black-clad elder.

"Don't touch the young lady!"

The young man named Yun Ao, standing behind Xu Xinghan, changed his expression. Although he knew it might be too late, he still mustered his Inner Power to its utmost, rushing towards Xu Mengjie's direction.

"No ..."

On the stage, as the black-clad ninja was getting closer and closer, Xu Mengjie's pretty face turned deathly pale, and her eyes were filled with panic.

Whoosh!

Just as the black-clad ninja's hand was less than a foot away from Xu Mengjie's fair neck, a Cyan Wind Blade suddenly shot towards the black-clad ninja's hand without warning.

"Ah...!"

Suddenly, a heart-rending scream echoed as the hand flew up from the wrist.

Splat!

Blood instantly spurted from the severed wrist, and Xu Mengjie's eyes widened as she saw the blood splashing towards her face.

"Water Manipulation Technique."

At this moment, a young voice sounded, and a figure stood beside her.

Buzz~!

Immediately after, a deep blue light film appeared, enveloping her, and the severed hand along with the spraying blood were all blocked outside the light film.

Plop! Plop!

The blood spilled onto the ground, and the severed hand also fell to the floor.

"What's going on?!"

The other black-clad ninja who was also attacking Xu Mengjie, along with Kurama and Aozora, were all startled by this sudden change.

Looking up, they saw that, at some point, there was a young man beside Xu Mengjie.

"Qin Yang?"

Xu Mengjie turned her head, with a hint of surprise in her beautiful eyes.

"Hmm, are you okay?"

Qin Yang nodded and smiled, asking.

Xu Mengjie was considered his friend, and furthermore, Qin Yang had no goodwill towards the Japanese, so it was only natural for him to intervene.

"I'm okay."

Returning to her senses, Xu Mengjie gently exhaled, saying with lingering fear.

"Thank you for saving me."

Xu Mengjie's eyes sparkled as she looked at Qin Yang, expressing her gratitude.

At this moment, Yun Ao, who was ready to go save Xu Mengjie, suddenly stopped in his tracks, while Xu Xinghan and Yun Duo also looked at Qin Yang standing next to Xu Mengjie.

The eternally composed Xu Xinghan subtly sighed in relief, his palms already covered with sweat.

If his daughter had been captured by this group of Japanese, he truly wouldn't have known what to do.

However, fortunately, this situation did not happen, and that young man, about the same age as his daughter, actually saved Meng Meng at the critical moment.

"Damn Chinese brat, how dare you ruin the Munemasa Clan's plans! Nakashima, kill him!"

A cold gleam flashed in the eyes of the black-clad figure Aozora as he shouted harshly to the uninjured black-clad ninja.
