All of this seems so impossible and unattainable. God of Death looked puzzled, then imdiately turned his gaze to Hungry Shark. Everything was said by Hungry Shark alone, aning only she knew about this and understood it. He suddenly started to suspect that Hungry Shark might have switched sides and joined God of Death. If that's the case, then everything she just said was a lie to deceive him.
With a face full of killing intent, God of Death glared at Hungry Shark. Sensing sothing was wrong, Hungry Shark quickly waved her hand and said, "Lord Murder God, everything I said is true. There's not a single falsehood!"
Seeing that her words held no credibility with God of Death, who still looked at her with suspicion, Hungry Shark felt helpless. If even God of Death doubted her, then she was at a great loss. If she had known this, she should have run away when Hao Jian let her go. That way, she might have avoided calamity. But now even God of Death suspects her, which ans she has lost her support and invited disaster.
God of Death did not believe Hungry Shark's words, as he thought no one's words could be trusted; only believing himself was reliable.
He wanted to ask Hungry Shark a few more questions, but unexpectedly, another confidant rashly rushed in.
The confidant ca rushing in and said, "Lord Murder God, the person attacking headquarters says he is the God of Death. He wants to et you, and if you don't go out, he says he will blow up the headquarters!"
"Blow it up!" God of Death heard this and nearly exploded with rage.
Last ti, his strongest assassin, Xie Qianqian, was persuaded by Hao Jian to defect, which made him incredibly angry. Consequently, he thoroughly cleaned his assassin organization, secretly eliminating those with rebellious thoughts. Fearing that Xie Qianqian would expose the location of his headquarters to Hao Jian, he imdiately organized the construction of another headquarters.
Building a new headquarters cost him a huge sum of money and effort. He had only recently moved there and hadn't even ward the seat, yet Hao Jian dared to co threatening to blow it up.
God of Death was, of course, infuriated. He slamd the table and shouted, "Damn it, you're all useless! Get up there! I don't believe he can stir up much trouble. Since he's here, I'll make sure he dies without a burial ground, having co here with life and leaving without it!"
The fierce montum that God of Death suddenly erupted with frightened the confidant who ca to deliver the ssage, leaving him montarily dumbfounded.
"What are you standing there for? Quickly go organize people to resist him! Call everyone out! I don't believe I can't deal with him today!" God of Death said.
Upon hearing this, the confidant imdiately nodded and ran out, followed by the previous confidant. Staying here even for another second made him feel suffocated.
In the conference hall, only God of Death and Hungry Shark remained. God of Death glared at Hungry Shark, angry that his painstakingly trained assassins were playing tricks before him. He was furious, and once he resolved the issue with Hao Jian, he planned to clean out his assassin organization again. Any disrespect or defiance towards him would be secretly dealt with, so they'd know he was the true king of assassins, the Murder God.
Now that Hao Jian was at the door, he didn't have the ti to handle such internal affairs. God of Death gave Hungry Shark a fierce look and said, "Stay in your solitary confinent; I'll find you for reckoning once I've dealt with this matter!"
God of Death did not give Hungry Shark a chance to speak, leaving the conference room with a single sentence.
At this mont, Hungry Shark glared viciously at God of Death's departing figure. She initially thought returning to God of Death might offer a glimr of hope, but she hadn't expected him to distrust her so much, locking her in solitary confinent based on re speculation. Solitary confinent was a place where almost no one erged alive, and if they did, they'd be severely hurt physically or ntally.
Hungry Shark was very angry. Although God of Death adopted her, preventing her from starving on the streets, he also essentially imprisoned her, forcing her to do his bidding all these years and killing so many people. At this mont, God of Death's attitude toward her disheartened her.
Hungry Shark snorted angrily. There's no way she'd obediently go to solitary confinent. Given the lack of compassion, she decided just to leave, believing there had to be a place for her sowhere in the world.
With that thought, Hungry Shark quickly fled in the direction away from headquarters, using her mory to avoid people she knew and didn't know, and imdiately left Murder God Headquarters.
After angrily leaving the conference hall, God of Death imdiately led a group into another hall.
At this mont, sitting on the chair, God of Death was facing ten to twenty n and won, all sharp-eyed and emitting a killing intent honed from bloodshed. If Xie Qianqian hadn't joined Hao Jian and Hungry Shark hadn't escaped, both of them would have been among this group.
These individuals were among the strongest in God of Death's assassin organization.
Murder God looked confidently at this group of people. They were the elites he trained, tasked with nurous missions each year, bringing him significant inco. Of course, training them required considerable investnt.
At this mont, he stood up, gazing at them with excitent: "You are the elite I've trained. Now our organization is in trouble, and it's up to you to get us through this crisis!"
Their eyes were burning with fervor, clearly stirred by Murder God's words.
Just then, a trusted aide hurriedly ran in and whispered in Murder God's ear that Hao Jian was getting closer to the headquarters center with his n.
A flash of shock crossed Murder God's face, but he quickly composed himself, knowing there was no more ti to waste. He pointed at the elite assassins before him and said, "Go now. The survival of our organization is at stake. Don't disappoint . Additionally, whoever brings the head of the God of Death will be richly rewarded, with a billion, and granted freedom to leave the organization at any ti!"
These words from Murder God inspired fervor among everyone. A billion bounty—how much was that? They hadn't accumulated that much from all the tasks they'd completed. But if they killed the God of Death this ti, they'd instantly receive such a huge bounty. Most importantly, the reward of freedom to leave the organization ant they could gain their freedom!
They were exhilarated, and before Murder God could speak again, they rushed out, their hearts pounding with excitent.
Murder God sat back down, watching them in their frenzy, feeling more assured.
Humph, so you still dare to challenge ? He thought Hao Jian was overestimating himself.
Murder God crossed his legs, sat at the central position of the headquarters, observing every move below.
Hao Jian walked calmly from outside towards Murder God's headquarters. Small fry attempted to attack them, but Li Xin and his team dispatched them before they could make a move.
Li Xin's team used firearms for long-range and their fists and daggers for close combat. As for Xie Qianqian and Jiang Long, it wasn't their turn to act yet, so they stood by watching Li Xin's team fight.
As they advanced, suddenly, over twenty people rushed out, led by a strangely dressed person whose gender was indiscernible. This person led the group towards Hao Jian. Xie Qianqian imdiately took a defensive stance.
When they were about twenty ters from Hao Jian's group, the person suddenly signaled for the others to stop, and looked directly at Xie Qianqian.
This person stared at Xie Qianqian and said, "Traitor, I didn't expect you'd have the guts to co here!"
The speaker was Gao Feng, actually a male, but due to training gone wrong and following an extrely dark path, appeared androgynous. Gao Feng was ranked second on the Assassin's List, always overshadowed by Xie Qianqian, so seeing Xie Qianqian now filled him with anger, eager to crush her underfoot.
Xie Qianqian remained indifferent and said, "You pervert!"
Gao Feng hated being called a pervert and androgynous, so hearing Xie Qianqian say this infuriated him. He charged at Xie Qianqian, who, unfazed, unsheathed her sword from her back and rushed towards Gao Feng.
"Bang!" The two quickly engaged and swiftly locked into combat.
Seeing Gao Feng move, his followers charged at Hao Jian, fueled by the thought that killing him would earn them a billion and freedom. They went wild.
Seeing the engagent, Jiang Long imdiately moved in front of Hao Jian, joining the lee.
At this point, the firearms could no longer be used, so Li Xin and his team discarded their guns, drew the daggers from their waists, and, demonstrating their adaptability in solo combat, plunged into the crowd to join the battle.
A clown-dressed assassin was the first to break through the crowd's obstruction, reaching Hao Jian. His cane suddenly sprouted a spike, which he thrust towards Hao Jian.
