Capítulo 71: Chapter 71: If there are no conditions to win, create them.

Su Lun had anticipated the assassin that suddenly appeared behind him, far from being surprised.

Decisively, he tore open his leather jacket, and two puppets—one emitting a chilling wail and the other grinning grotesquely—flew towards the enemy. Their hands cracked, revealing dagger blades poisoned in black.
