The opulent meeting room of the Golden Dragon Guild headquarters in Hong Kong buzzed with hushed conversations.
Ornate tapestries depicting ancient battles adorned the walls, their golden threads catching the light from crystal chandeliers.
At the center of the room, a massive table of polished mahogany stretched out, its surface inlaid with an intricate map of Asia.
Seated at the head of the table, a woman with striking white eyes surveyed the gathering.
This was Lin Mei, the infamous "White Eye" and second-ranked hunter in all of Asia.
Her presence commanded attention, a subtle aura of power radiating from her still form.
"Another S-class gate closed in Beijing last week," a guild official reported, his voice tinged with awe. "That's the seventh one this month."
Lin Mei's lips curved into a slight smile.
"Impressive. It seems our neighbors to the north are stepping up their game."
