After concluding the Three Dragons incident, Star Han decided to make a name for himself in the underworld. He called Yu Ya and said, "Xiao Ya, there's something I want to discuss with you. There's a task I need your help with, but I don't know if you're willing. If you don't want to do it, I won't force you. Don't force yourself either."
"Brother, your matters are my matters. Whatever you need, just tell me. If it's something I can do, I will definitely do it," Yu Ya replied immediately.
"Xiao Ya, I want to make a name for myself in the underworld now. You know, the underworld is dangerous. I'm not worried about myself, but I'm concerned about you. However, I've already made arrangements for you to study abroad at a self-funded program in an American school. The procedures can be completed quickly, and I think you should study there for a few years until I have a solid foundation. What do you think?" Star Han asked.
"Brother, whatever you want me to do, I'll do it. I have no objections to studying abroad. I just don't want to leave you for such a long time," Yu Ya said, observing that Star Han seemed to have made up his mind.
"Xiao Ya, it's actually good for you to go out and gain some experience for a while. You can't always be by my side. Being too dependent on me is not good for your future. Don't worry, I will take care of everything," Star Han said.
"If that's what you say, then I'll go. But brother, why do we need to be so polite with each other? Is it necessary?" Yu Ya said with a touch of sadness.
"Xiao Ya, I'm well aware of your feelings, but I still have some unresolved issues in my heart. Please give me some time," Star Han said.
"We've been together for five or six years. Isn't that enough? I know you have feelings for me too. But why do you have to do this? It causes pain for everyone. Is it because of Shi Yi, or is it because I haven't done enough? Brother, tell me," Yu Ya said sadly.
"Xiao Ya, don't overthink it. I have no feelings left for Shi Yi. There's only disappointment. As for you, you're already more than good enough. I've never seen a girl as amazing as you. But I don't know what's going on in my heart. Right now, I'm feeling confused," Star Han said.
"You say I'm so good, but you always treat me so politely. Polite to the point where it feels like we're strangers. I'm afraid, I often have dreams where you suddenly leave me and I can't find you no matter how hard I look. When I wake up, I'm terrified that it might be true," Yu Ya said, throwing herself into Star Han's embrace.
"It's just a dream, don't worry about it. Xiao Ya, trust me, I will never abandon you," Star Han comforted her, stroking her dark hair.
"Brother, I know you won't. Now you're the only family I have. If you leave me, I'll have no one. Brother, rest assured, I will do my best in my studies and come back to help you. I won't disappoint you. But why did you suddenly think about joining the underworld?" Yu Ya said, trying to regain her composure.
"Oh, I don't know either. I'm feeling frustrated right now, and I need to vent. Killing people is the best way!" Star Han said coldly.
"Brother, do you hate the Hua family that much?" Yu Ya asked.
"To be honest, I don't hate them that much. But a person always needs a goal. We need motivation to live. Besides, they kicked me out. I need to vent my anger. As they say, 'People fight for a breath, while the Buddha fights for incense,'" Star Han said.
"Brother, I really hope that one day, we can forget about everything and enjoy ourselves freely wherever we go," Yu Ya said.
"When we succeed in our careers and settle the score with the Hua family, we can hand everything over to others. I will accompany you to travel all over China. How about that?" Star Han said.
"Really? That would be great! Brother, don't lie to me. I really hope that day will come soon," Yu Ya said excitedly.
"Of course, I won't lie to you. Besides accompanying you to travel all over China, if you like, I can also accompany you to travel around the world. We can go wherever you love," Star Han said softly.
"I want to go to Paris to see his fashion shows and to New York to see the Statue of Liberty. There are so many places I want to visit. Brother, will you accompany me?" Yu Ya looked up and asked.
"Of course, I always keep my word," Star Han replied confidently.
"Brother, you're so good to me," Yu Ya said and kissed Star Han's forehead.
One week later, Star Han accompanied Yu Ya to the United States.
After returning, Star Han officially began planning his activities in the underworld. He remembered Sun Zihao, who, based on the information he provided last time, seemed to be talented. If he could join Star Han's side, it would make things much easier. Unfortunately, since their last conversation, he hadn't heard from Sun Zihao.
Thinking about it, Star Han decided to call him again and invite him to his villa. Star Han instructed the chef to prepare a sumptuous meal to entertain Sun Zihao. They didn't talk about anything specific at first; they simply drank. After a few drinks, Star Han deliberately said, "Zi Hao, someone like you must be doing well in the underworld."
"Who knows? I'm just a small pawn under someone else. I'm nothing special," Sun Zihao said angrily.
"Oh, it's been so long, and I haven't asked where you're working now?" Star Han asked.
"I'm with the Axe Gang. But don't worry, if you need any help, even though the Axe Gang is small, I have friends in other places. As long as it's not something too big, I can handle it. Did you get into trouble again, brother? Do you need my help?" Sun Zihao asked.
Star Han paused for a moment and decided to be honest. He asked, "Zi Hao, what do you think of me as a person?"
"You? Just by your demeanor and presence, it's clear that you're not an ordinary person. Besides, look at the mansion you live in. You're either a wealthy tycoon or a big boss," Sun Zihao said.
"If I were to join the underworld, what kind of person do you think I should be?" Star Han asked again.
"You? Someone like you, no matter where you are, would never be subservient to anyone. In the business world, you would undoubtedly be a big boss, and in the underworld, you would be the leader," Sun Zihao said without hesitation.
"Then why don't you want to work with me, even though I asked you?" Star Han said.
"I don't see any reason why I should. You don't seem like someone backed into a corner, and you don't seem like someone who lacks money. I'm not sure why you decided to join the underworld!" Sun Zihao said.
"I have my reasons for doing so. First, I'm feeling frustrated right now and want to have some fun in the underworld. Secondly, to be honest with you, I have a rival who is rich and influential. I was driven here because of him, and I want revenge," Star Han said.
"Oh, if that's the case, then you do have valid reasons. But why did you come to me?" Sun Zihao asked.
"There are three reasons: firstly, I don't know many people in the underworld; secondly, you're a rare talent, and I don't want you to continue being just a small figure; thirdly, even if we don't get along, I know you won't betray me. I trust you. Is that enough?" Star Han said.

"That's enough. But I'm already working under someone else," Sun Zihao said.
"I know you doubt my abilities, and that's not surprising. Come, let's go to the training room. I'll show you what I'm capable of," Star Han said.
"Alright, I'll see what you're capable of, brother," Sun Zihao agreed without hesitation.
The two of them arrived at the training room. Star Han hung up seven targets for throwing knives in different places in the room. Star Han took a throwing knife, tossed it, and it flew through the air, cutting all seven ropes holding the targets. The knife then returned to Star Han's hand.
Star Han calmly said, "Zi Hao, what do you think of my throwing knife skills? It's quite impressive, right? I believe slitting someone's throat wouldn't be much harder than cutting these ropes."
"Amazing, truly amazing. I never expected you to have such impressive skills," Sun Zihao exclaimed.
"It's nothing, really. Let me throw another knife for you to see," Star Han said. He rehung the targets, this time in a row. He threw the knife, as fast as lightning, and it pierced through the heart of the first target, continuing to penetrate the hearts of the next three targets until it finally stopped in the fourth target, deeply embedded in its heart.
"Brother, I think with your throwing knife skills, anyone who faces you alone would be dead for sure," Sun Zihao said.
"I usually carry seven throwing knives with me that I can continuously shoot. I believe I can handle around twenty people without fear. I also have money, not a lot, but I can easily produce several million," Star Han said.
"I think it would be difficult for you if someone had a gun," Sun Zihao said.
"Do you have a gun?" Star Han asked.
"No, only the major gangs have some guns, but not everyone. Small gangs like ours don't have guns, but our gang leader has one," Sun Zihao said.
"I can give you a gun. Try shooting me and see if you can hit me," Star Han said, picking up a gun he had taken during their previous encounter on Guanghua Mountain and handing it to Sun Zihao. "Go ahead and shoot!"
After hesitating for a moment, Sun Zihao, seeing that Star Han didn't seem to care, aimed at Star Han's leg and fired a shot. Star Han waved his knife, blocking the bullet just in time. The bullet hit the knife, but it didn't deflect or break. In Star Han's eyes, the bullet was no faster than a mosquito flying in the air. Sun Zihao quickly fired a few more shots, but the same thing happened. At this point, Star Han said, "How about that?"
"What do you want me to do to help you?" Sun Zihao was starting to be swayed.
"It's simple. I can give you a gun and enough money. You gather some people, occupy a territory. If you encounter any difficulties, I will help you. We can discuss the rest after this is done. Trust me, our cooperation will not let you down," Star Han said.
"Alright, from now on, I, Sun Zihao, will listen to you. It's not too late to throw oneself into the fire. I've made up my mind," Sun Zihao said after thinking for a moment.
"Good, we will always be good brothers. Cheers to our successful cooperation!" Star Han said happily.
"Cheers!" Sun Zihao also said excitedly.
They then discussed some basic matters. Since they started their activities in the underworld by killing the three dragons, they decided to name their upcoming organization the "Dragon Assassination Society." They agreed that Star Han would temporarily remain hidden to create a sense of mystery. Sun Zihao would handle all the activities and secure a territory. Star Han gave Sun Zihao five million yuan as funding to recruit members and also gave him the gun he had taken. Once everything was settled, Sun Zihao left to make the necessary preparations.
With everything arranged, Star Han felt relieved. However, for now, he had nothing to do, as the Dragon Assassination Society didn't require his presence yet. He strolled around the city without driving, going wherever his feet took him.
This area was the famous red-light district of the city, bustling with restaurants, dance halls, and the noise was deafening. Various hostesses dressed provocatively, standing there to attract customers, while the streets were filled with busy pedestrians. Star Han didn't want to linger here, so he turned around to leave. Suddenly, he heard someone shouting ahead.
He saw two young women stumbling and running while supporting each other, their clothes disheveled. Chasing after them were about ten fierce-looking men, each wielding a weapon. They were shouting all sorts of vulgarities:
"You filthy whores, stop running!"
"Stand still, or you'll regret it!"
"Stop them!"
What's going on? Anyone with some experience could tell at a glance. However, in this era, everyone should mind their own business, and it's commendable to be courageous but not advisable. Besides, seeing those menacing men, one should also consider their own ability to handle the situation. Star Han had no intention of interfering; he simply stood there and observed how things would unfold, as he didn't want to offend the local gang. As they passed by, the crowd made way for them. The two women, after all, were physically weaker than men, and if they weren't running for their lives, they would have been caught long ago. However, even in their exhausted state, they ran into Star Han. How could he let them collide with him? He swiftly dodged, and the two women lost their balance, about to fall. Subconsciously, Star Han reached out and helped them up.
One of the women said anxiously, "Sir, please save our lives. We are willing to be your slaves, even if it means death."
Star Han frowned. He was about to speak when the men chasing them caught up. They immediately surrounded the three of them but didn't attack right away. They approached slowly, like cats playing with mice. One of the men with a fat face full of flesh smirked and said, "Look, brothers, someone wants to be a hero and save the damsels in distress. Should we grant his wish?"
Everyone burst into laughter, and one person said, "Too bad he didn't save a princess but a whore! Such trash, even if you gave her to me, I wouldn't want her. Can you believe someone actually saved her? Hahaha."
"Take a look at yourself, do you even have what it takes?" said a man with a scarred face.
"Yeah, what a joke. How dare you cause trouble in our Wild Wolf Gang's territory? Do you not value your life?" another person said.
"Brothers, why waste words on him? Let's give him a taste of our strength," someone declared.
As they finished speaking, one of them swung a stick towards Star Han. At first, Star Han intended to explain, but the more he heard, the more his anger grew. Since they were already attacking, he couldn't hold back anymore. He moved his body, grabbed the stick, and with a light shake, the stick ended up in his hand.
Seeing this, the group of men became furious. Over ten of them scattered and surrounded the three of them. The two women said to Star Han, "Sir, you don't have to worry about us anymore. You should escape. It's our misfortune."
Star Han was touched. At such a moment, when they were in danger, the two women still cared about his safety. They couldn't be ungrateful people. After taking a glance at them and giving it some thought, he decided to be polite before resorting to force. He turned to face the men and said, "Why are you chasing after these two women? If it's about money, no matter the amount, I'm willing to repay them for you. Just let them go."
"You've offended our Wild Wolf Gang. Do you think you can settle it by throwing some money? It's not that easy. Today, if we don't teach you a lesson, how will our Wild Wolf Gang survive on the streets? Brothers, attack! Give him a good beating," a harsh voice said.
It seemed that there was no room for negotiation. In that case, let's teach them a lesson, thought Star Han. He pulled the two women behind him and said, "Stand still and don't move, understood?"
Without waiting for the men to make a move, Star Han swiftly approached the apparent leader and struck him with the stick. The man didn't expect Star Han to attack first, and before he could react, his head exploded, and he fell unconscious.
The rest of the men finally realized what had happened and shouted as they rushed towards Star Han.
Star Han met them head-on, ducking and sweeping his stick, knocking down two of them. It appeared that their legs were broken as they lay on the ground moaning in pain. Star Han jumped up and struck two more, causing them to lose the strength to get back up. It may sound easy, but to accomplish this in just a few tens of seconds required exceptional skills and accurate and calm judgment. The remaining few men no longer dared to approach. Star Han also didn't pursue them. He turned around and saw that the two women were being attacked by two men who took advantage of his distraction. However, the two women seemed to have some martial arts skills, and they were holding their own against the attackers, even though they didn't have sticks. Star Han grew impatient. He rushed over, struck one of the men with a stick, and quickly resolved the situation. Then he said to the remaining men, "Get lost!"
The men helped their injured comrades and slowly walked away, threateningly saying, "Kid, remember this. The Wild Wolf Gang won't let you off."
Star Han ignored them. He turned to the two women and asked, "I don't know why they were after you, but they probably won't let you go so easily. Do you have anywhere to go?"
"We have no relatives or friends here. We have nowhere to go," one of them said.
"I see. Since I've gotten involved in your affairs, I'll see it through. You can stay at my place for a few days. We'll figure out the rest later. How does that sound?" Star Han suggested.
"Okay, but wouldn't it be a bother for you? Besides, they might... It could bring trouble to you," one of the women said.
"It's no big deal. We've reached this point already. Even if you don't come to my place, they won't let me off. Don't worry about any trouble. Besides, I doubt I would fear them. Just relax and come to my place," Star Han reassured.
"Since you put it that way, we won't be polite. But we don't know how to thank you properly," one of the women said.
"It's a small matter, nothing significant," Star Han smiled and said.
Afterwards, he hailed a taxi and took the two women back to his villa.
