Urban: It turns out this is a comprehensive world

Once the defense plan against Xiao Chen was finalized, Li Shiheng completely abandoned the idea of ​​going to the company. After all, he was busy receiving those four guests in the morning, and going to the company in the afternoon would be redundant and a waste of time.

After instructing the kitchen to prepare the family dinner for tonight, Li Shiheng turned and went into his study. Although he didn't go to the company office, he didn't neglect his work at all. Fortunately, the internet technology is advanced enough that most of his work can be done remotely, so it didn't delay him.

However, Luo Yuntian's earlier words kept swirling in Li Shiheng's mind: "My brother found out about this yesterday, which means that the Dragon King Palace taking on the assassination mission must have happened yesterday as well."

On the surface, everything seems calm, but the more you think about it, the more chilling it becomes; the shady dealings hidden there are truly terrifying.

The moment the other party accepted the assassination mission, we intercepted the information with pinpoint accuracy!

The sensitivity of this news network is simply terrifyingly absurd!

The moment they make the decision to take action, you're already aware of it. That level of infiltration and intelligence capability is enough to send chills down your spine.

What's infuriating is that even knowing this, what can you do? You have absolutely no idea how the other party managed to get the information so quickly and accurately. Even if you want to take precautions, it's all in vain, and you can only stare helplessly.

Meanwhile, Xiao Chen, whose injuries had long since healed, was leading his Fox Hunt team into a neighboring city, systematically conducting an investigation based on the clues given by his employer.

Zhao Hao and his group were naturally kept in the dark about this. If that guy found out, he'd definitely slap his thigh and brag about Xiao Chen to the skies: "He actually knew to investigate first!"

As for Xiao Chen's personal protector, Long Yi, ever since Xiao Chen was able to move normally, he has started to use "invisibility" again, hiding quietly in the shadows like an invisible guardian, silently protecting Xiao Chen's safety.

Time flew by, the sky gradually darkened, the streetlights lit up one after another, and sparse starlight dotted the night sky. The nightlife of the neighboring city slowly began.

"How's the investigation going?"

Inside the hotel's private room, Xiao Chen leaned back in his chair, looking at the five members of the Fox Hunt team who had returned looking travel-worn, and asked them in a calm tone.

"Boss, we don't have much information yet. The target didn't even go to the company today, so we can't confirm his schedule and habits to see if they match the information the employer provided."

The captain of the Fox Hunt team, whose code name was Fox Hunt, stepped forward and gave a concise report on the current reconnaissance results.

Xiao Chen nodded slightly, tapping his fingertips lightly on the table, and continued to ask, "Where is the target now?"

"It's in his usual manor villa, which matches the information the employer gave us. However, four guests came to the villa today, and we haven't figured out their identities yet, so we can't confirm their origins for the time being," Fox Hunter replied in a deep voice.

"Guests have arrived?" Xiao Chen raised an eyebrow, slightly surprised, then nodded knowingly. "No wonder he didn't go to the company; he had a business dinner at home."

After a moment's hesitation, he looked up at Fox Hunter, his tone becoming more serious: "How is the defense of the target villa?"

"There are quite a few bodyguards. There are about twenty patrolling the perimeter alone. The situation inside the villa is still unclear, but I imagine there are quite a few as well," Fox Hunter replied truthfully, recalling the footage he had gathered.

"Ha, so many bodyguards? As expected of the wealthy, their fear of death is no different."

Xiao Chen chuckled, his tone tinged with disdain, his surprise only fleeting.

After a moment's thought, he immediately made the decision and issued the order: "Tomorrow during the day, scout out the route the employer gave us, select the ambush location, and then take action tonight."

"Boss, isn't this a bit too hasty..." Fox Hunter instinctively tried to dissuade him, but Xiao Chen interrupted him with a raised hand before he could finish speaking.

"I know what you're worried about," Xiao Chen said firmly, his eyes sharp, "but the other party is just a patriarch of a wealthy family, and his bodyguards are just ordinary people. There's no need to be so restrained."

Besides, this is Chinese territory. Even if they're arrogant, they wouldn't dare to hoard firearms and cause any trouble.

Fox Hunter opened his mouth, but ultimately nodded helplessly.

That makes perfect sense. Without firearms, the opponent's strength would be halved compared to that of these martial artists.

Although the target was a top-tier wealthy family head, who might have martial arts bodyguards hidden around him, the thought that his own Dragon King was already at the Innate Realm and that his group of people were all first-rate martial artists made them fearless even if the other party had a trump card.

As for whether there will be any innate masters around the target, we cannot be sure, but even if there are, it doesn't matter. After all, they are innate masters, and it would be quite good to be able to invite one.

If there are indeed innate masters at that time, the Dragon King will naturally deal with them.

And just like that, the assassination plan against Li Shiheng was finalized.

Nothing happened that night. The next morning, Li Shiheng set off for the company as usual. The car he was traveling in looked the same as usual, but the bodyguards inside had all been replaced.

After disguising themselves, Mo Yu and Ye Fan accompanied Li Shiheng into the middle car.

Luo Yuntian and Zhao Hao mingled among the members of the Killing God Hall under Mo Yu's command and got into the back car. Both of them had changed their appearances and concealed their original identities.

The remaining members of the Killing God Temple led the way in the lead car, with three cars following behind, their auras concealed. In total, there were only ten people accompanying them, not including Li Shiheng.

The journey was uneventful until the end of the workday. The same lineup and the same order of vehicles drove them back from the Li Group to the manor villa.

"Creak,"

The sudden screech of brakes shattered the silence. The car leading the way came to a sudden stop, and the two cars behind it also braked immediately and came to a steady stop.

"What's going on? Could it be that the people from the Dragon King's Palace have come knocking on our door so quickly?"

As Mo Yu grabbed the walkie-talkie to ask questions, his brows furrowed, and his tone was filled with disbelief. This was a bit too hasty.

Before he could speak, his subordinate's urgent voice came through the walkie-talkie: "Boss! The road ahead is covered with nails, the car can't go any further! It's most likely the work of the Dragon King's Palace!"

Mo Yu was taken aback, then a cold, sinister smile curled at the corner of his lips: "It seems that Xiao Chen, that slippery eel, has personally taken to the field."

Honestly, which mercenary organization wouldn't spend two or three days investigating the target before taking action, thoroughly investigating their background? Only someone like Xiao Chen would dare to be so rash and reckless. No one else from the Dragon King Palace would dare to do this.

"Everyone out of the vehicle! Be on alert!"

Mo Yu gave a deep order into the walkie-talkie, and before he finished speaking, he pushed open the car door and jumped out. Ye Fan followed closely behind. The two of them, one on the left and one on the right, scanned their surroundings with eyes like hawks, exuding their full aura.

The members of the Killing God Temple in the lead car also got out of the car. Two of them were responsible for guarding, while one pretended to go forward to clean the triangular nails, but in fact he was luring the other party to show himself.

Finally, Luo Yuntian, Zhao Hao, and two members of the Killing God Hall also looked around warily.

"call out!"

A whooshing sound suddenly rang out from the green belt on the side of the road, and a dagger wrapped in chilling true energy shot straight towards the member who was pretending to clear the obstruction, so fast that it left only a blur.

At the same time, three other daggers were fired from different directions from the green belts on both sides, targeting Mo Yu, Ye Fan, and Li Shiheng, who was still sitting in the car. Of course, the dagger aimed at Li Shiheng was mainly intended to break the car window and confirm his exact location.

As soon as the dagger was shot, five masked figures rushed out from the green belt. Four of them were dressed in uniform gray-black outfits, while only one was dressed in specially made martial arts outfits, with a tall and upright figure and an exceptionally prominent aura.

"A trivial skill!"

The member who cleared the obstacle reacted extremely quickly, dodging the dagger with a nimble roll.

Mo Yu and Ye Fan casually raised their hands and easily slapped away the daggers that were attacking them. The one that was flying towards Li Shiheng's car window was caught precisely by Mo Yu. With a slight force from his fingertips, the dagger shattered into pieces instantly.

"The one dressed differently is mine!"

Mo Yu roared and charged forward first. It was obvious that among the five people, the one with the most eye-catching clothes was Xiao Chen.

Xiao Chen initially thought this was an easy ambush, but the moment Mo Yu circulated his true energy and pounced, his pupils contracted sharply, and alarm bells rang in his heart—it was a trap!

"Bang!"

Their palms collided fiercely, and the surging true energy spread out like a tsunami. Xiao Chen was forced back several steps by Mo Yu's palm strike, and his chest heaved.

Shocked, a surge of rage welled up within him, and he gritted his teeth, growling, "This true energy... it's you, Mo Yu!"

"Heh, didn't expect that, did you?"

Xiao Chen's eyes flashed with murderous intent, his tone filled with resentment and arrogance, "So what if it's a trap? Mo Yu, do you think you can still overpower me like you did last time?"

As soon as he finished speaking, his innate true energy surged wildly, and the air around him swelled up, causing him to rush towards Mo Yu once again.

He hadn't used his full strength in the previous exchange, and now that he had broken through to the Innate Realm, he didn't believe he was no match for Mo Yu.

At the same time, the members of the Fox Hunting Squad were all shocked when they heard Xiao Chen's angry roar. It was actually Mo Yu! But since their Dragon King had not ordered a retreat, they could only grit their teeth and continue charging.

However, the members of the Killing God Temple were no pushovers either. Ye Fan, Luo Yuntian, and Zhao Hao didn't even move; the remaining members of the Killing God Temple were enough to keep the four members of the Fox Hunting Squad firmly occupied.

If it weren't for the Dragon King Palace's profound foundation and the many exquisite martial arts techniques it possessed, the four members of the Fox Hunting Squad would have been defeated long ago due to their numerical disadvantage. They are only barely maintaining their undefeated status now.

As for why only four people went into battle, the reason is simple: the hacker in the team, Ghost, is not very good at combat and only provides technical support from the rear during each operation, never participating in the battle head-on.

"This Xiao Chen is quite capable. Let's finish this quickly and act together to avoid any unforeseen complications!"

Seeing Xiao Chen struggling against Mo Yu, Zhao Hao didn't hesitate and prepared to attack him.

That is, after all, the Dragon King, the legendary "protagonist." Even though he is currently at a disadvantage and may be defeated at any time, there is no guarantee that no unexpected event will occur.
