Supremely Talented Tyrant

"Let's call it a day for now. I'm tired and won't argue with you anymore..."

Hao Jian glanced at Zhong Fei, twisted his neck, and walked towards Spice Ginger. As he turned away, the killing intent that had filled the air vanished in an instant.

"Son!"

Realizing he could finally move, Zhong Fei rushed anxiously to Zhong Xing's side. Seeing Zhong Xing still unconscious, his heart sank.

He swiftly turned his head, glaring at Hao Jian, and shouted angrily, "Hao Jian, this grudge is settled today!"

Initially, upon understanding Hao Jian's identity, Zhong Fei had planned to reconcile with him. After all, for people like them, having another friend is always better than having another powerful enemy. Even if they couldn't be friends, at least they shouldn't become enemies.

But what about now? Hao Jian had crippled his son right in front of him. Such deep hatred leaves no room for reconciliation. Besides, he holds a high position and power now. How could he not manage to deal with a mere gangster leader?

With the power of an entire city against Hao Jian, could he really not resolve this?!

Upon hearing this, Hao Jian's eyes remained calm. He looked at Zhong Fei coldly and said, "If you plan to come at me, I'll be there to the end. Just don't regret it when the time comes..."

"Ridiculous! I should regret it?! I think it's you who will regret! You were untouchable in Hua City because Guo Shuxian had your back. But now that I'm in charge, your reign is over!"

Zhong Fei laughed furiously at Hao Jian's words, his eyes shining fiercely, shouting, "Zhong Fei keeps his words!"

He naively thought that Hao Jian reached where he is today only because Guo Shuxian helped him.

Hearing this, even Guo Shuxian shook her head, feeling sorry for Zhong Fei.

"Then I'll wait and see..." Hao Jian's lips curled into a sinister smile, and he laughed coldly.

"Hmph!"

Knowing he couldn't out-argue Hao Jian, Zhong Fei snorted coldly. Looking at his struggling subordinates behind him, a surge of anger rose in his heart, and he shouted at them with displeasure, "All of you, get up now! You've disgraced me today!"

"So many of you couldn't even handle one person! Find two people to bring the young master, and let's go!"

After speaking, Zhong Fei stepped towards the door, anger smoldering in his eyes, clearly furious about the situation.

These subordinates had been utterly suppressed by the opponent in just a moment, with no chance to show their strength!

Seeing Zhong Fei leave, the bodyguards scrambled to their feet, carefully picking up Zhong Xing. Their cautious manner was as if they were handling a fragile glass cup.

"You've really ticked that guy off this time!"

Seeing the anger in Zhong Fei's departing eyes, Guo Shuxian casually remarked next to Hao Jian, causing him to shrug.

"That guy brought it upon himself, it's not my fault. Besides, you don't need to worry. No matter how strong his methods, they're limited to Hua City."

"But you, coming straight to me, aren't you afraid that guy will trouble you if he can't deal with me?" Looking at Guo Shuxian, Hao Jian's eyes showed no amusement, only concern.

"Hehe, Hao Jian, don't worry. With your people around, will anything happen to Mother Guo?"

Upon hearing Zhao Yating's laughter, Hao Jian nodded and then looked at Spice Ginger, saying with a smile, "These days, just have someone protect the two of them well..."

"Yes, Young Master Hao!"

Spice Ginger nodded heavily, saying solemnly, "Even if it means death, I will not let anything happen to the two of them!"

"Just keep an eye on them, nothing major should happen. After all, I'll be in Hua City these days, so with me around..."

Glancing around the restaurant, Hao Jian shook his head and said, "Leave those guys here, I don't want to stay in this place either. You take them back first, I have something else to do..."

"Yes!"

Upon hearing this, Spice Ginger nodded solemnly, respectfully saying, "Then, Young Master Hao, I'll take the brothers and leave first, you can rest assured!"

"Hao Jian, where are you going? You haven't had lunch yet!"

Noticing Hao Jian's decision not to leave with them, Zhao Yating displayed a look of reluctance, while Guo Shuxian, standing beside her, seemed much calmer. Although not as worried as Zhao Yating, her eyes still showed inquiry.

"You two go home first, don't worry, I'm fine!"

With a light chuckle, Hao Jian also walked out of the restaurant, leaving Zhao Yating and Guo Shuxian staring in silence. Standing before them, Spice Ginger could only offer a dry smile. These two were both Young Master Hao's women, and crossing them was no joke...

Therefore, both Spice Ginger and his subordinates held their breath, attentively waiting for the two young ladies. Meanwhile, after leaving the restaurant, Hao Jian didn't head towards the mall's parking lot but instead turned left and slowly walked into a nearby empty alley.

"Tap, tap, tap..."

Feet swiftly touched down on some boxes, propelling upwards to reach a desolate building. The walls had long been torn down, leaving just the skeleton struggling to hold up this six-story structure.

Gazing at the building starkly divided from the bustling avenue, Hao Jian nodded in satisfaction.

The corners of his mouth curved slightly, and a light, breezy laughter escaped his lips as he fixed his eyes on a concrete pillar on the building.

"You've been following me for so long, isn't it time you showed yourself?"

The laughter resonated across the building, yet no change followed the sound. Three minutes passed just like that.

Hao Jian's face still did not show any impatience; instead, he continued to look at the spot with a sly smile and said, "With your amateurish concealing techniques, I could sense you from a mile away. As for your barely hidden killing intent, I won't even bother mentioning it..."

"Come on out and show yourself. Maybe if I'm pleased, I'll spare your life..."

"Buzz!"

This time, when Hao Jian spoke, the concrete pillar suddenly writhed mysteriously, and a figure slowly materialized...

"Tap!"

Feet landed on the ground, and a cold, merciless voice came forth: "I never thought you'd be able to sense my presence..."

The man stood at 1.5 meters tall, his entire body wrapped in a night suit, revealing only his agile eyes. A long sword, disproportionate to his figure, hung on his back. Seeing him, Hao Jian couldn't help but wonder if this guy could even draw the sword in a fight.

"Island language, and dressed like this, so you're a ninja..."

The man spoke not in Chinese or English but in Japanese. Fortunately, Hao Jian was fluent in multiple languages; otherwise, he wouldn't really know what the man was saying.

"I am Assassin Muramasa Ichizoku! Ranked third on the international assassin list!"

Muramasa proudly proclaimed his identity upon arrival, his eyes filled with unforgettable pride, his hand resting on the sword at his side.

"Oh, it seems the one who is here to end me this time is not ordinary! Tell me, who sent you? My head must be worth quite a bit, right? Third-ranked, your fee must be substantial too..."

With too many enemies to count, Hao Jian wasn't sure which rival had spent so much to target him. Yet, after some thought, only minor enemies would do such a thing. Those major enemies surely knew his prowess and would realize sending someone of this level would not be very wise!

"Three billion, that's your price! It's the most lucrative job I've ever had!" Muramasa did not conceal the bounty on Hao Jian's head but chose not to disclose the client's information.

"In the assassin world, betraying a client is an action that leads to a collective execution by all assassins!"

"Tell me how you wish to die; I am ranked third among international assassin elites. I will allow you to say your last words, and remember, it is Muramasa Ichizoku, ranked third, who is your reaper!"

A dense killing intent suddenly erupted from Muramasa's body, swirling rapidly around him. The temperature of the entire building dropped a few degrees as his aura spread.

His arrogant tone and disdainful gaze naturally emanated, viewing Hao Jian as a small mouse he could crush at any moment.

"If I recall correctly, the third-ranked should be William, the boss of the Italian Mafia, right?"

However, in response to Muramasa's words, Hao Jian replied fluently and casually in Japanese. Yet, as he uttered these words, a ripple of emotion inevitably flickered in his eyes.

The assassin rankings! It had been quite a while since he last graced them... He wondered if the current assassins were as formidable as they used to be.

"Haha! I didn't expect a country bumpkin like you to know William, so killing you will be worthwhile. The William you speak of was assassinated by me half a year ago!"

"And I naturally filled his position!"

"I see..."

Upon hearing these words, Hao Jian fell silent for a moment, his face showing a look of reminiscence. Perhaps only someone at his peak could see what others couldn't.

The strength of the man before him was inferior by many levels compared to his era.

"Boy, you'd better prepare to die! Those words will be your final ones!"

Muramasa had no intention of letting Hao Jian reminisce. His eyes flashed fiercely, and the murderous aura coiling around him suddenly condensed.

"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!"

His foot stomped the ground, and in a mere instant, his figure flashed nearly ten times!
