Warning! A hidden dragon has emerged!

Chapter 126 Visiting the Museum

Outside the unfinished building.

Several figures sped away, quickly moving away from the danger zone.

They stopped when they reached a secluded corner, took off their night clothes and masks, and revealed their true appearances.

"Mr. Qin, the scarred man from earlier is my elder brother, Song Qingshu. Is he injured? He must be on a secret mission."

Song Hongyan looked worried, fearing that Qin Quan might have gone too far and accidentally injured her brother who had changed his appearance.

Little did anyone know, Qin Quan had already seen through everything.

A confident smile played on his lips.

"Don't worry, although he took a sword strike from me, I timed it perfectly. He was seriously injured but not fatal. After this battle, his suspicion will be completely cleared, and his position in the White Eagle Alliance will be firmly established. No one will suspect him of being an undercover agent anymore."

"That's good, that's good."

Song Hongyan breathed a long sigh of relief; the heart that had been in her throat finally settled.

Chen Shuang, standing to the side, was still pale and trembling slightly, unable to recover from the life-or-death situation she had just faced.

If it weren't for Song Hongyan's prior analysis of the situation and clarification of the stakes at the Blue Mountain Hotel, given her impatient nature, she would most likely have exposed her weaknesses during the confrontation, completely destroying the meticulous plans that Song Qingshu and the war department's high-ranking officials had made over the past decades.

The thought of the danger she had just experienced filled her with lingering fear, and her back was covered in cold sweat.

She looked up at Qin Quan, who was tall and had a composed demeanor, and couldn't help but ask:

"Yan Yan, who is this Mr. Qin?"

"Sister-in-law, he is the peerless master who saved me and Xuanxuan before."

Song Hongyan explained softly.

Upon hearing this, Chen Shuang could no longer hold back. Her legs went weak, and she knelt down with a thud, solemnly kowtowing three times to Qin Quan.

"Thank you so much, Mr. Qin, for risking your life to save me. I am deeply grateful."

"Mr. Chen, you absolutely mustn't!"

Qin Quan quickly stepped forward to help her up, and solemnly instructed the crowd:

"President Chen, President Song, my senior sister's people will come to pick you up shortly. You must immediately abandon all your businesses in Australia and Asia, take the secret passage, and return to China without delay."

"Mr. Qin, we will listen to you."

Song Hongyan and Chen Shuang obeyed Qin Quan's every word without hesitation.

Before this, Chen Shuang still harbored a glimmer of hope, thinking that she might be able to preserve her overseas businesses. But after experiencing this life-or-death crisis, she realized that she dared not have even the slightest bit of hope left.

Qin Quan then turned to Ling Yuyan, "Second Senior Sister, you should also lead your team to evacuate. If the White Eagle Alliance finds traces of the Wind and Rain Pavilion, the consequences will be dire."

The White Eagle Alliance and the Wind and Rain Pavilion both belong to the Golden Valley. Over the years, the two major forces have not interfered with each other, which is why Ling Yuyan saved people while masked.

If the White Eagle Alliance finds something to hold against us, a major battle will be inevitable.

"And what about you? Aren't you coming with us?"

Ling Yuyan frowned slightly, her eyes filled with worry.

Qin Quan smiled wickedly, "We've gone all the way abroad, how can we come back empty-handed?"

"The same artifacts they looted from China back then, I will make them return to China in the same way they did back then."

While others avoided the most strictly controlled ports of entry like the plague, he insisted on facing the challenge head-on.

The most dangerous place is the safest place.

Ling Yuyan looked at her junior brother, who was full of confidence and aura, and her eyes were full of satisfaction.

Qin Quan is no longer the naive boy he once was on Ziyun Mountain. With his Foundation Establishment cultivation, he is invincible among his peers, and no one here can rival him.

He acts alone, comes and goes freely, and no one can do anything to him.

"Be careful, we'll evacuate first."

After giving her instructions, Ling Yuyan, along with Qin Ling, Song Hongyan, and the others, quickly and quietly left the scene with their backup, completely fading out of the influence of the Aoya Kingdom.

After watching everyone leave, Qin Quan calmly walked towards the bustling street, hailed a taxi, and headed straight for the National Museum of Australia and Asia.

The afternoon sun was shining brightly.

The museum was bustling with people, with a constant stream of visitors, creating a lively atmosphere.

Qin Quan casually blended into the crowd, pretending to be a tourist, bought a ticket and entered the venue. He strolled leisurely between the various exhibition halls and soon locked onto his target.

In the very center of the exhibition hall, a gilded bronze statue of Weituo, the Heavenly King of the Ming Dynasty, stands quietly.

Standing 1.4 meters tall, the piece is entirely gilded and translucent, with a regular and grand shape and exquisite carving. It is a genuine national treasure of the imperial court and a first-class cultural relic.

A hundred years ago, it was forcibly taken from the Dragon Kingdom by foreign enemies and ended up here, unable to return home for a long time.

"You're the one."

Qin Quan's gaze was firm, and after confirming that it was genuine, he no longer hesitated.

He raised his hand, gathered his strength into a fist, and slammed it out with a roar.

Boom! Crack!

The sturdy tempered glass display case shattered with a crash, shards of glass scattering across the floor like steel balls.

He moved swiftly, opening his treasure bag with a flash of inspiration, and instantly the entire gilded bronze statue was contained within.

The entire set of movements was fluid and seamless, performed in one go.

The museum's security alarm didn't sound until he turned and left.

The entire museum instantly descended into chaos.

Qin Quan followed the panicked crowd and quickly walked out of the museum.

Soon, he broke away from the crowd and disappeared into the bustling city.

After taking the national treasures, he did not leave immediately. Instead, he carried a pre-prepared list of lost cultural relics and headed straight for the Presidential Palace of Australia.

One hour later.

The atmosphere in the presidential palace council chamber was oppressive.

President Henry sat in the main seat, listening to the urgent report from the head of the Antiquities Bureau, his face extremely grim.

"Mr. President, the gilded statue of Weituo, the Heavenly King, from the museum's collection has just been stolen!"

"just?"

Henry looked up abruptly, his anger surging.

"In broad daylight, under the clear sky, someone dares to blatantly steal national treasures from a museum? Do you think this is a movie?"

Today, he was already overwhelmed and frustrated by the pressure from the White Eagle Alliance and the mess of the border crossing blockade.

At this moment, the scandal of the museum theft broke out, instantly igniting his anger and making him furious.

He slammed his hand on the table, spitting as he shouted angrily:

"The White Eagle Alliance's mess is already giving me a headache enough, and now the museum has been robbed. What's the police station doing? Are you incompetent, or just complete idiots?"

The head of the cultural relics bureau was terrified and broke out in a cold sweat, bowing deeply as he hurriedly explained.

"The other party had planned this all along. Not only did they avoid all surveillance cameras, but they also destroyed the security glass cover at an extremely fast speed. The high-definition cameras and alarm devices couldn't even capture their appearance before the artifact was gone."

"Useless! A bunch of useless trash!"

Henry was furious and continued to curse.

Just when the atmosphere in the office reached its most tense point.

A lazy, playful, and slightly mocking male voice suddenly rang out in the empty office.

"Oh, everyone's here? That makes things much easier for me now."
