Chapter 1056: Five Seconds, Five People!
"Oh?"
Hao Jian shrugged, completely unfazed by Will's threat. He had come here today precisely to stir up trouble. The bigger the commotion, the sooner Felix would appear before him, and no one was more suitable for this than Will.
After all, Will was Felix's son.
"You're angry? Show me what happens when you get mad."
As soon as Hao Jian said this, the onlookers' expressions changed dramatically. How could this Huaxia person speak so recklessly?!
How dare he talk to Will like that? Wasn't he afraid that Will would take him down mercilessly?!
"You're going to die a horrible death, I guarantee it!"
Will's expression grew quite unpleasant, his colorful hair trembling slightly. His voice, full of anger, resounded as he waved his hand.
"Where are you guys?! Get over here and capture this Huaxia kid for me!"
This estate was his father's territory, and naturally, the bodyguards were under his father's command. Moreover, to prevent any issues with his precious son, a few strong black bodyguards had been specially arranged!
Thus, with his roar, a group of more than one hundred thirty bodyguards pushed through the crowd, aggressively stopping behind Will, and five of them stepped forward to stand in front of him.
These five were Felix's elite bodyguards for Will, their strength on par with the top hundred in the mercenary world. Their sharp eyes locked onto Hao Jian, and Hao Jian looked calmly at the ones who had come out.
"Will, that's enough! If you don't stop, I'll have to talk to your father!"
Seeing that Will had even called over the bodyguards, Sofia couldn't stand by any longer. She stepped forward once again, her pretty face looking quite displeased, though her eyes were mostly filled with worry. Even though Hao Jian had said he'd handle everything, she still wasn't willing to stand behind him.
After all, it wasn't in her nature to watch others help her. She was not the kind of petite and timid woman; being one of Nicholas's shareholders, her prowess was not something ordinary people could compare to.
"Get out of the way! You're just my woman. There's no reason for you to help an outsider instead of me. If you insist on helping this man, then you'll have to see if this man will end up with his head under my foot!"
Seeing his woman repeatedly helping an outsider, helping this Huaxia person, Will's heart was already boiling with rage. Sofia was his forbidden fruit!
It was all this man's fault!
"Get him! I want him to know that my woman is not someone he can pursue!" Will ignored Sofia, waved his hand, and shouted angrily.
"Will!"
Seeing Will so determined, Sofia immediately shouted angrily, stepped forward, and blocked half of Hao Jian's body, her pretty face filled with anger!
But just as she stood in front of Hao Jian, a hand suddenly reached out and grabbed her small hand, causing her heart to tremble. Instinctively, she wanted to shake it off, but a lightly teasing voice sounded in her ear.
"Alright, just stand behind me. Since I said I'd take care of this, trust me. After today, Will won't appear in front of you again."
She didn't know what kind of magic pushed her, leading her to retreat behind Hao Jian as if guided by ghosts and spirits, looking like a docile little woman in love.
By the time she realized it, Hao Jian had already stepped forward and walked ahead. She noticed her flushed cheeks, hurriedly covering them with her hand, but these actions appeared differently in Will's eyes.
"This Huaxia kid is asking for death!"
Sofia had never shown such expressions or actions toward him; he had to make this guy realize his power!
"Get him! Let him see how powerful this young master is!"
Seeing Hao Jian approaching, Will immediately pointed accusingly and shouted.
"Hehe, Young Master Will, leave it to us!"
Being able to rank in the top hundred of the mercenary world and the top fifty in the bodyguard world, these five bodyguards were extremely confident. How could this scrawny Huaxia kid possibly stand against the five of them?!
Probably even one of them could handle him with ease!
"Old Fifth, you go!"
One who seemed to be the leader of the group of black men nudged his mouth and said.
"Hehe, Boss, leave it to me!"
Hearing the order from his boss, the bodyguard called steered his neck and stepped forward. This man was dark-skinned, slender, and his glossy bald head sparkled under the sunlight. The perpetual sneer at the corner of his mouth was his signature look.
"Oh? Only you're coming out?"
After taking a few steps, Hao Jian stopped, first glancing at Sofia not far behind him, then turning to look at the black bodyguard called Old Fifth before him.
"Why don't you all come at once? I don't plan to deal with you one by one."
Old Fifth was about to say a few words when Hao Jian didn't even give him the chance, beckoning with a taunting demeanor that made people's teeth ache in anger.
"It's been a long time since I've seen such a brat!"
Old Fifth gritted his teeth and growled lowly, stomping the ground fiercely. His figure darted out swiftly, soon appearing in front of Hao Jian. Once again accelerating, he charged and swung his fist up.
"Your skills are pretty good."
Easily dodging Old Fifth's sudden burst of attacks, Hao Jian twisted his neck, let out a mocking laugh, and then his eyes suddenly turned icy, letting out a cold snort.
"It's just a pity, you're too slow..."
"What..."
Old Fifth was still chewing on Hao Jian's words, not immediately reacting, his face showing confusion. In the next moment, he saw a huge fist rapidly enlarging before his eyes, and then nothing more...
"Sigh, I wasn't planning on getting into a fight, but since you don't plan to sit down and have a good talk, don't blame me." After knocking Old Fifth to the ground with a punch, Hao Jian shook his head, his foot gently resting on Old Fifth's head, and he casually glanced at the four people in front of him.
"Now, do you all plan to come at me together?"
"Huaxia people, don't be so arrogant!"
"This is our territory!"
"Get your foot off Old Fifth's head!"
With Hao Jian's words, the four truly enraged bodyguards followed closely! As soon as the words fell, the four of them stomped simultaneously, splitting into four angles and violently charging at Hao Jian!
At the same time, a dagger was drawn from their waists, gleaming coldly in the sunlight. Seeing them draw weapons, everyone except Will and his bodyguards was left speechless, mouths agape.
Sofia quietly covered her mouth with her small hands, her eyes shining with deep concern.
"Oh? They've drawn weapons?"
These guys' speed was fast, but in his eyes, it seemed frozen. However, their knife-drawing speed surprised Hao Jian a bit. These guys must have seen battle before.
"In that case, I'll play with you for a while."
"Tap!"
His foot lightly tapped the ground, and Hao Jian, who was originally beside Old Fifth, suddenly disappeared, leaving the four of them with drastically changed expressions. Such speed, so fast!
"Old Three, it's over there by you!"
The boss's eyes kept scanning around, and suddenly he caught sight of a figure emerging from the shadows behind Old Three. His pupils suddenly constricted as he instinctively shouted!
"What?"
Old Three was a slightly chubby, average-built man. Despite his physique, he was the fastest runner among them! It was precisely him who first got close to Hao Jian at the start of the action, but no matter how fast he was, he couldn't be faster than Hao Jian!
Hao Jian's God of Death title wasn't earned casually; it signifies that his assassinations are like the God of Death, reaping lives with a scythe!
"Your speed is really slow..."
The sudden voice behind him caused Old Three's pupils to constrict instantly. He instinctively tried to stab backward with his dagger, but as Hao Jian said, he was too slow...
"Bang!"
The same fist, but aimed differently, fiercely hit the back of Old Three's head, forcefully knocking him out, and he eventually landed in a flowerbed not far away, unconscious.
"Damn it!"
Watching his brothers being easily taken down one by one by Hao Jian, the boss's eyes were bloodshot. As his foot hit the ground, he wanted to change direction, but unknowingly, Hao Jian's ghostly figure suddenly appeared beside him, swiftly sweeping him off his feet with a leg move, sending him flying.
Then, repeating the method, the remaining two were knocked out. Hao Jian stepped forward once more, slowly advancing toward Will.
The God of Death, taking lives from the shadows, this is how the mercenary world describes Hao Jian. Although brief, it speaks of his prowess!
Many targets didn't even know how they died.
"In my Huaxia, there's a saying, consider it a gift to you: 'I watch the crab arrogantly strut, let's see how long you can act intimidating!' Now is the moment of reckoning!"
"No...don't...get him! Why are you all standing there, get him!"
Hao Jian's appearance frightened Will, turning his face pale. His trembling legs quickly retreated, hiding among the crowd, but in his eyes was utter terror.
Five seconds, five moves, five people down!
This is Hao Jian's strength!
These five people were specially hired by his father! Normally, they easily handled some small gangsters, but against Hao Jian, why were they so ineffective?!
Will's face looked grim. He didn't suspect these five people of holding back, but upon reflection, he realized there was no reason for them not to exert themselves.
After all, the high salaries they earned now were all his father's money!
