Qi Yunlong carefully hid in the woods by the roadside, lying quietly on the ground without making a sound.

For him, this time, there was only one goal: to completely eliminate Wu Hao.

If he fails to deal with Wu Hao this time, he will likely find it difficult to retain his title of Grandmaster.

For him, this was not just about rescuing Mu Shanhai and the others from Wu Hao's clutches, but also a battle to prove himself.

Qi Yunlong's gaze was unwavering; his eyes never left Wu Hao, like a wolf staring intently at its prey. Unfortunately, Wu Hao was that prey.

He was unaware that his previous actions had thoroughly enraged Qi Yunlong.

At this moment, he was smiling as he gazed into the distance, at the place where his two enemies, Luo Chen and John, were fighting.

Wu Hao wanted to see how the two of them would kill each other to vent his hatred.

"Hmm?" Wu Hao looked into the distance, feeling a sense of unease, but he couldn't quite put his finger on what it was.

"Do you guys have that special feeling too?" Wu Hao turned to his team members and shouted, "That feeling of being constantly watched, do you guys feel that?"

Several team members shook their heads, indicating that they did not feel that way.

Wu Hao frowned; this feeling stirred something within him again.

"Boss, you must be overthinking it. We've been fighting with them all the way here, so it's perfectly normal for us to feel this way. We can understand," a team member said calmly, taking a sip of water and looking at Wu Hao.

"Is that so?" Wu Hao murmured, not letting his guard down despite his teammate's explanation, after all, he was all too familiar with this feeling.

He had felt this before, and in Wu Hao's view, it could be summed up in two words—killing intent.

A thick aura of killing intent emanated from them.

"Could it be that someone else is following me? That's impossible!" Wu Hao stroked his chin, squinting as he looked around.

But when his gaze fell upon the grove of trees by the roadside, his heart suddenly skipped a beat.

A bright light seemed to suddenly shoot into his mind.

"Damn it, Xiao is the guy who loves doing this kind of thing, so it's possible that it's him."

Immediately, Wu Hao looked at his teammates, then at Mu Shanhai and the others, and came to stand in front of Jiang Xian'er.

Without saying a word, he lifted Jiang Xian'er up and held her in front of him.

"Ah, ah, what are you going to do?" Jiang Xian'er was completely bewildered, inwardly lamenting how much grievance she was about to suffer.

Jiang Xian'er tried to break free from Wu Hao's grasp by waving her arms and legs, but how could her strength compare to Wu Hao's? She had no strength at all to break free from Wu Hao's grasp.

"Wu Hao, what do you want to do?" At this moment, Mu Shanhai stood up and shouted at Wu Hao.

Wu Hao glanced at Mu Shanhai and sneered, "Mu Shanhai, don't fucking play dumb in front of me. Get out of my way. If you anger me, I'll kill you all. Get the hell out of here!"

On the brink of life and death, Wu Hao is not the kind of person who would show you any mercy, not even Mu Shanhai.

After all, what's the point of having money if you're already dead?

Is it possible to leave it for someone else to burn for you in the future?

Wu Hao didn't care about any of that at the moment.

"Go back, I won't do anything to her." Wu Hao was also annoyed by Mu Shanhai, so he could only offer an explanation. He placed Jiang Xian'er in front of him, then pressed the gun against her forehead and looked towards the woods.

He neither uttered a sound nor made any move.

After this standoff lasted for five or six minutes, Wu Hao finally said to his teammates, "You two, go check out the woods over there. Don't go too far, and come back as soon as you see nothing."

"What's going on, boss?" The two team members were also confused, unsure of what Wu Hao was up to.

They didn't even know what was going on, yet they blindly walked into the woods?

Could it be that something is really happening over there in the woods, or...?

"Just go when I tell you to, stop arguing." Wu Hao frowned, gave a low shout, and urged the two to hurry forward.

Inside the woods, Qi Yunlong quietly shrank back, completely burying himself in the soil.

He had originally pointed his gun at Wu Hao, but Wu Hao's sudden alertness surprised him. No one expected things to turn out this way.

Wu Hao still had a sliver of awareness. If Wu Hao had been even slightly slower, he would have been killed by Qi Yunlong in the next second.

"Heh, they're really alert," Qi Yunlong thought to himself, before burying his head completely in the soil.

About ten minutes passed.

Two team members emerged from the woods, looking impatient, and said to Wu Hao, "Boss, nothing's wrong, don't worry."

"Are you two sure?" Wu Hao was still a little uneasy. This concerned his life, so he had to be careful.

"We've searched the woods, but we still haven't found anything."

Upon hearing this, Wu Hao's tense expression finally eased, and he slowly put down the gun in his hand.

"Get lost."

Wu Hao pushed away the terrified Jiang Xian'er and said coldly.

"Damn it, it's all that Xiao's fault. If it weren't for his father, would I be living in such fear right now?"

"Boss, the fighting over there is really intense. It seems John is determined to fight Xiao this time." A team member who didn't go into the woods pointed into the distance and shouted.

They had been keeping a close eye on the situation, and as the gunfire grew increasingly intense, their faces lit up with joy.

If something happens over there, it will be a good outcome for Wu Hao and his team...

"Xiao, you've finally shown up. Let's see if you can still run away this time!"

John, gun in hand, roared at Luo Chen in front of him, vowing to tear Luo Chen to pieces.

Luo Chen wasn't afraid of such petty tricks. You just have more people, right?

So what if they have a few more guns than me?

Bang!

Bang!

With just two simple shots, Luo Chen took down two of John's teammates.

Roy was terrified at this point and dared not come out to fight Luo Chen again, for fear that Luo Chen would kill him with a single shot.

It was because he had cleared the way in front that Luo Chen was able to save Roy's life, as he hadn't killed him with a single shot.

Do you think you can kill me?

Luo Chen stared coldly at John's mercenary team members on the road. How dare a bunch of clowns be so arrogant in front of him?

What are you anyway?

In Luo Chen's eyes, he didn't take this group of people seriously at all, after all, his methods were even more ruthless than theirs!
