Supremely Talented Tyrant

"Whiz!"

The sound of gunfire erupted, followed closely by the whooshing sound that exploded in the villa!

At some point, Hao Jian's figure had already appeared in front of Yuan Shanshan, before anyone could react, taking advantage of the moment when Dan'er was slow to respond. He struck Dan'er fiercely with his palm, wrapping Yuan Shanshan in his arms, and with a quick step, he left the place.

"It was actually a feint to lure the enemy!"

By the time Madison realized what had happened, Hao Jian had already brought Yuan Shanshan to where he had originally stood, his face suddenly turning dark. This guy had calculated everything from the start!

Using the attack from outside as a signal to distract them, he seized the moment when they were drawn by the outside commotion, to rescue Yuan Shanshan in an instant!

To achieve this success, it had to be predicated on absolute speed; otherwise, the whole plan would be a futile exercise. What frightened Madison more was that he hadn't noticed these people approaching at all!

"Heh, isn't it strange how my people bypassed all your setups without making a sound?"

Seeing Madison's shocked expression, Hao Jian chuckled and said, "Those setups of yours are tricks I stopped playing with years ago. Dealing with such things is like child's play."

"As for you..."

Suddenly, Hao Jian pointed at Dan'er, his eyes filled with killing intent, and snorted coldly, "For harming my woman and leaving her with a wound, your only atonement is with your life!"

"Keke... Do you have that ability?!"

Dan'er brushed off the dust from the wall where Hao Jian had knocked him into, struggling to get up, his face twisted.

This... this...

With nothing restraining Hao Jian, Madison was completely panicked; even with Dan'er by his side, he felt unsafe. After all, the rumors about Hao Jian mostly spoke of how powerful he was!

Moreover, from past to present, he had witnessed Hao Jian's outburst of strength himself!

"Do you want to try?"

Twisting his neck and glancing at Yuan Shanshan, whose eyes showed worry, Hao Jian chuckled lightly and said, "Shanshan, just watch closely how your man deals with this guy!"

Spice Ginger and the others hadn't dealt with Madison's guards yet, so they couldn't come over to help take care of Yuan Shanshan; thus, he could only protect her himself.

If the opponents were as strong as him, perhaps he would worry about Yuan Shanshan's safety, but this time the opponent was Dan'er!

This guy, who essentially had never existed in Hao Jian's eyes, could he really threaten Yuan Shanshan? Hao Jian didn't believe it; what he wanted now was this guy's life!

"Mmm... okay!"

As long as Hao Jian was by her side, Yuan Shanshan felt an overwhelming sense of security, and no matter where she was, she wouldn't be afraid as long as Hao Jian was there!

"Kid, you're messing with someone beyond your ability!"

Feeling underestimated by someone like Hao Jian, Dan'er was particularly upset. Despite being a member of the Nicholas Consortium Guard Corps and Madison's top bodyguard, he was being looked down upon in such a small city by this kid?!

Unforgivable!

"Roar!"

A furious roar erupted from Dan'er, his face twisted. He stomped the ground fiercely, his body launching like a bomb straight at Hao Jian!

"Swish!"

As his figure shot forward, a dagger found its way into his hand, the cold blade glinting with a chilling light as it stabbed fiercely toward Hao Jian!

"I don't know if you've learned anything about daggers..."

Seeing how this guy wielded the dagger, Hao Jian sneered. Just based on this level, he could kill Muramasa? This seemed about his limit.

"A real dagger doesn't let the enemy see it when taking a life!"

A faint curve appeared on his lips, the cold voice reaching Dan'er's ears, making his eyes turn fierce!

"How dare you comment on me like that!?"

"Looking for death!"

No one had ever dared to speak to him like that, not even his captain! Even though over the years, he had continuously hidden his true identity within the company, and bringing him up would make others think he was one of Madison's acquired subordinates, only they knew!

Their real identity as professional assassins, or rather the Assassin Group secretly nurtured by the Nicholas Consortium!

Within the Nicholas Consortium, their people might appear to be ordinary electricians, or perhaps high-ranking executives with certain positions.

But no matter where they were, they were assassins! This was an unchangeable fact! Now, a small leader in a broken city dared to comment on his techniques?!

It's like a regional martial arts champion telling a national competition's top-ranked master, 'You're too weak, your movements are incorrect!'

Ironically, this situation confirmed itself on him today!

Regardless of how those documents describe Hao Jian, in Dan'er's eyes, Hao Jian is nothing more than an ant curled up in a tiny city!

Much like a frog in a well, he's never seen the grandeur of the ocean, nor the boundlessness of the heavens!

But, is Hao Jian really as he perceives him?!

Clearly, that isn't the case!

"Then let me show you what an assassin truly is!"

With eyes half-closed and the corner of his mouth lifting into a smirk, Hao Jian lightly taps the ground with his toe, his figure suddenly shifting sharply to the right.

"You think you can dodge like this?!"

Seeing Hao Jian evade his attack direction, Dan'er's face immediately displayed a contemptuous look. As long as his dagger hasn't hit Hao Jian, he can endlessly change direction!

He was just about to adjust the direction of his dagger towards Hao Jian's new position when suddenly his eyes widened!

"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!"

Just as Hao Jian shifted across the scene, he suddenly stomped down and his figure shot upward. However, as he reached a certain height, his hands swung fiercely, shifting him to another spot!

"What is this?!"

As Hao Jian's movements quickened, Dan'er gradually realized he was unable to keep up with Hao Jian's speed. If he lost track of Hao Jian's position, his actions were as glaring as fireflies in the night!

"An assassin stays hidden in the dark, kills silently, unnoticed. Yet now, neither you nor I are assassins because we are both exposed to the enemy's sight!"

"However, sometimes, an assassin is not just an assassin; he might merely be an ordinary person, or just a master who can get angry!"

"Right now, I'm neither an assassin nor an ordinary person, just a man wanting to kill you to vent for my woman!"

As the voice fell, a flash of light suddenly streaked through the air. The view zoomed in and slowed, revealing Hao Jian's figure beside that light.

In his hand, he tightly gripped a dagger as thin as a cicada's wing. The light emanated from this dagger, flickering brightly.

This flash came quickly and left even faster—perhaps it disappeared in less than an instant.

"No... impossible!"

On Dan'er's neck, a visible scar appeared the moment the light vanished, then like an unruly floodgate, blood continuously gushed out!

His hand only grasped his neck, trying to stop the blood flow, but to no avail.

"I already told you, your skills are too weak, not even on the same level. Perhaps even the Muramasa you killed was stronger than you, wasn't he?"

"If I'm not mistaken, when you killed Muramasa, you relied on the fine threads spread in the air, right?"

Hao Jian's figure emerged, and in his palm, lay a tuft of white threads silently. Seeing this bundle of threads, Dan'er's eyes suddenly widened!

This guy, he actually knows...

"Tch!"

Looking at the now-dead Dan'er, Hao Jian sneered disdainfully. Such petty tricks were discovered the moment he stepped into this villa. Whether it was Madison or Dan'er, they stood in peculiar positions.

At first, he thought they were just standing unintentionally, but later, when he found these threads and thought it over, he realized that their positions were clearly within the safe zones of these lines!

But this Dan'er was somewhat smart at least, not leaving threads on Hao Jian's path, knowing that as soon as they touched him, Hao Jian would have noticed immediately.

Hao Jian's previous movements were all to avoid these threads, but eventually, he found Dan'er utterly foolish, lacking even basic means to restrict an opponent.

So he couldn't be bothered to play with him and simply took him out directly...

No wonder this guy could quietly take Yuan Shanshan away. He probably used this method to silently eliminate those protecting her as well, didn't he?

"Heh heh, alright, I helped you take down that guy!"

After handling Dan'er, Hao Jian looked at Yuan Shanshan's pretty but somewhat pale face and chuckled strangely.

"Hmph! You figured it out early this time, otherwise you'd be in trouble!" she snorted softly, glanced at Hao Jian, then turned away, not paying him any more heed. She hadn't forgotten that Hao Jian had threatened to spank her. If she didn't take this chance to suppress him...

She feared she wouldn't be able to avoid that spanking.

Thinking of being spanked by Hao Jian, Yuan Shanshan's pretty face swiftly turned crimson, washing away her pallor, leaving Hao Jian dumbfounded.

What's up with this girl? Was she scared by Madison and the others? Hmm, very likely!

"By the way, where's Madison?"

Thinking of Madison, Hao Jian's gaze suddenly darkened, having forgotten about that guy!
