Hurt my loved ones? I'm not guarding this country's borders anymore!

"What's wrong? Are you seeing things?"

The old man rubbed his eyes and muttered, "My eyesight has been getting really bad lately, looks like I'll have to watch less of those long-legged live streams."

That dark figure was none other than Shen Jinglong.

At this moment, he didn't even have time to calm the turbulent blood and qi surging within him.

That damned Northern Bear Kingdom's biochemical poison is like a madman dancing in his veins, stomping on his internal organs every time he uses his internal energy.

But he doesn't care.

Because he smelled that nauseating odor.

murderous look.

Although the other party concealed themselves very well, almost blending into nature, it couldn't fool Shen Jinglong's eyes, which had been immersed in mountains of corpses and seas of blood.

It's about 100 meters away from Qin Xuerong's villa.

Shen Jinglong abruptly stopped in his tracks.

He saw it.

In the shadows surrounding the villa, three strange figures dressed in tight black clothes and wearing white masks without any facial features were silently approaching the courtyard wall in a triangular formation.

Their movements were extremely strange; they didn't seem to be walking, but rather floating.

He touched the ground with his toes, landing silently.

profession.

This is definitely not the kind of street thug who does things for money, nor is it the kind of ordinary killer who only knows how to fight.

That movement technique reminds one of a rat hiding in a sewer.

Ruthless and deadly.

"court death!"

The rage in Shen Jinglong's eyes erupted instantly, and at that moment, he felt no pain from the poison in his body.

Because my heart aches even more.

That's his home!

It was the pure land he swore to protect with his life!

"boom!"

The ground exploded.

Shen Jinglong's figure vanished from the spot, and when he reappeared, he was already above the head of one of the men in black.

There are no fancy starting moves.

He threw a punch right away.

"Get the hell out of here!"

This punch, accompanied by the sound of wind and thunder, could smash through even a steel plate.

The man in black reacted extremely quickly.

It was even abnormally fast.

Just as Shen Jinglong's fist struck his body, his body twisted like a boneless snake, performing a contortion that no human could possibly do.

The upper body remained still, but the lower body shifted half a foot in a strange manner.

"laugh--"

A short blade, gleaming with a ghostly blue light, slid out from the black-clad man's sleeve like a viper's tongue, slashing at Shen Jinglong's wrist at an extremely tricky angle.

To relieve the siege of Wei by attacking Zhao.

If Shen Jinglong doesn't stop, this hand will be ruined.

"That's interesting."

Shen Jinglong sneered. Instead of stopping, he flicked his wrist, turning his fist into a claw, and directly grabbed the wrist of the other man holding the knife.

"Ding!"

A crisp sound.

Shen Jinglong felt as if he were gripping a slippery block of ice.

The black-clad man's skin was covered with an extremely fine, fish-scale-like soft armor that was slippery to the touch.

At the same time, the other two men in black also made their move.

They did not hesitate for a moment, nor did they turn back to rescue their companions.

One of them thrust his short blade directly into Shen Jinglong's back, while the other...

His target was the pink window on the second floor that was lit up!

That's Sisi's room!

"court death!!"

This time, Shen Jinglong was truly furious.

These scumbags.

They weren't there to assassinate him at all; their target from the beginning was Sisi!

"Get out of here!"

Ignoring the blade behind him, Shen Jinglong unleashed his Dragon Lord Qi within his body.

"Bang!"

The man in black who had been fighting him was sent flying backward by the shock, crashing heavily into the courtyard wall, half of his body sinking into it.

But at that moment...

The man in black who rushed towards the villa raised his hand.

"Whoosh!"

A dart flashing red light flew straight toward the second-floor window with a sharp whistling sound.

That speed was astonishing.

"No--"

Shen Jinglong's pupils contracted sharply.

At this moment, time seemed to slow down.

He could even see the strange patterns on the dart.

Can't catch up?

Do not!

We must catch up!

Shen Jinglong gritted his teeth and forcibly overdrawn his body's potential, even ignoring the excruciating pain of the poison instantly attacking his heart.

Instant Step!

This is an extremely fast movement technique that he mastered on the brink of death; using it once requires lying down for three days.

But now, I can't worry about that.

"Snapped!"

Just as the dart was about to shatter the glass.

A large, blood-stained hand grabbed it tightly.

The sharp blade cut his palm, and blood flowed down between his fingers.

But Shen Jinglong seemed to feel no pain at all, staring intently at the object in his hand.

That was close.

It was only one centimeter off.

Even if it were just 0.01 seconds later, that thing would have shot into my daughter's room.

"squeak--!"

Upon seeing this, the leader of the men in black let out an extremely piercing shriek, like that of some kind of bird.

withdraw!

Without any hesitation or fuss.

The remaining two men in black blurred and instantly disappeared into the darkness.

The guy who was blasted into the wall by Shen Jinglong was coughing up blood, but he was still struggling desperately to get up and escape.

"You think you can just leave after you've come all this way?"

Shen Jinglong flung the dart in his hand violently.

"puff!"

The dart transformed into a streak of light, piercing the guy's thigh and pinning him firmly to the wall.

"ah--"

A scream shattered the silence of the night.

Shen Jinglong didn't have time to chase after the other two.

He didn't even have time to deal with the hole nailed to the wall.

He smashed open the second-floor window and rushed into the room.

in the room.

Sisi was huddled in the corner of the bed, shivering, her little face streaked with tears.

Qin Xuerong held a fruit knife and stood in front of her daughter like a mother hen protecting her chicks. Although her hands were trembling, her eyes were unusually firm.

Upon seeing the figure break through the window, Qin Xuerong was startled and raised her knife to stab.

But when she saw who it was, the knife in her hand clattered to the ground.

"The Dragon's Shock..."

"dad!"

Sisi burst into tears and threw herself into Shen Jinglong's arms.

"Dad... there are bad people... I'm scared..."

Feeling the small, warm body in his arms, Shen Jinglong's heart, which had been hanging in his throat, finally settled down.

But the killing intent in his eyes was a hundred times stronger than before.

He saw it.

On Sisi's fair wrist, there was a faint red mark. Although the skin was not broken, it was somewhat red and swollen.

It looks like a mark left by some kind of special infrared beam.

"It's alright, Dad's back."

Shen Jinglong held his wife and daughter tightly, his voice hoarse and trembling slightly.

This was said to Qin Xuerong, and also to myself.

"Xue Rong, I'm sorry I'm late."

"I swear, from this day forward, no one will ever come near you again!"

Qin Xuerong leaned against his chest, which was filled with the smell of blood and gunpowder, yet felt it was the safest place in the world.

She didn't cry, but just gripped his clothes tightly, loosening and tightening them repeatedly.

"They... came for Sisi."

Shen Jinglong nodded, a cold glint flashing in his eyes.

"I know."

He released his wife and daughter, walked to the window, and looked down at the man in black who was nailed to the wall and had stopped screaming.

"Don't move upstairs, I'll go down and check."

Shen Jinglong flipped over and jumped down.

The man in black kept his head down and remained motionless.

died.

In the few dozen seconds that Shen Jinglong went upstairs, this guy actually bit into the poison sac hidden in his teeth and committed suicide.

Decisive and ruthless.

They're even this ruthless to themselves.

Shen Jinglong crouched down and ripped off the mask of the man in black.

An ordinary, unremarkable face.

The kind of person you absolutely wouldn't notice if you threw them into a crowd.

He searched the corpse for a while, and finally found something cold in his inner pocket.

A badge made of pure gold.

The badge is small, only about the size of a coin.

But the pattern on it is quite strange.

It was a burning sun, but at its center was etched a tightly closed eye.

It doesn't look like the logo of any legitimate organization.

Just then, a sharp screech of brakes sounded at the villa entrance.

Zhuque arrived in a great hurry with a squad of Black Dragon Guards.

"Dragon Lord! Are you alright? Your subordinate is late..."

Zhuque immediately spotted the dead man nailed to the wall and the golden badge in Shen Jinglong's hand.

Her expression changed instantly.

It turned deathly pale.

It was as if I had seen something extremely terrifying.

"Dragon Lord! This...this is..."

Suzaku's voice changed, and his fingers trembled as he pointed at the badge.

"This is the emblem of the 'Temple of the Sun'!"

"The Temple of the Sun?" Shen Jinglong frowned slightly.

"That's one of the most mysterious and terrifying supernatural organizations overseas!"

Suzaku took a deep breath, trying to calm the shock in her heart.

"It is said that they specifically search for special 'divine bodies' all over the world, capture them, and subject them to cruel live experiments and modifications..."

"On their dark web bounty list, any mission related to the 'Divine Body' is always an S-rank death order!"

At this point, Zhuque looked up at the lit room on the second floor, her eyes filled with terror.

"They...they actually found their way to Cangcheng?!"

Shen Jinglong's fingers slowly tightened, and the pure gold badge made a "crunching" sound as it deformed in his hand.

Temple of the Sun?

Capture the divine body?

Live experiment?

well.

Shen Jinglong casually tossed the badge, which had turned into a gold nugget, onto the ground and stomped into the mud.

A cold smile curled at the corner of his mouth, sending chills down Zhuque's spine.

"Who cares if it's the sun or the moon?"

"Since you've already set your sights on my home."

"Then leave your paws here, chop them up and feed them to the dogs!"
