I stormed down the mountain, took down all the big shots in the city, and the female CEO dragged me

The man with the sniper rifle sensed something was wrong, stood up, and fired at Xu Yuan.

"Hurry up and go."

The two knew that in close combat, they were no match for Xu Yuan.

Now that we've been discovered, evacuation is the best course of action.

Seeing that things were going badly, the man in the tree jumped down and ran wildly into the darkness in the distance.

bang...

Gunshots rang out in the night, and the birds in the trees fluttered their wings and flew into the night sky.

The bullet grazed Xu Yuan's ear and broke off a tree trunk as thick as a bowl behind him.

Holding onto the leather-clad man who had raised a gun, she ran forward desperately without looking at the consequences.

With a flick of his sword finger, Xu Yuan sent a talisman into the leather-clad man's back. The man felt a chill run down his spine and instinctively turned around, only to find Xu Yuan already standing before him.

"ah…"

He screamed in panic, and seeing Xu Yuan raise his hand, he decisively pulled the pin on the grenade at his waist.

Let's die together.

Seeing him counterattack, Xu Yuan immediately sensed something was wrong and quickly retreated.

"The warriors of the great chrysanthemum will never be defeated."

The man in the leather jacket roared, and the grenade exploded in his hand, sending thick smoke and blood flying through the woods.

"Ptooey, ptooey, ptooey..."

Xu Yuan spat out the grass in his mouth with disgust, got up, patted the dust and wrinkles off his clothes, and frowned slightly as he looked at the crater on the ground.

"Preferring death to surrender?"

His gaze fell on the sniper rifle beside him, and Xu Yuan examined it closely, realizing that the ambush they had encountered on the way to the resort was also his doing.

However, he was too short, so Uncle Wang mistook him for a woman, when in fact he was a man.

Xu Yuan didn't linger. He looked in the direction of the fleeing person, pushed off with his feet, and quickly chased after them.

If you don't cut the weeds at the root, you'll only leave trouble behind.

He didn't want something like the martial arts tournament to happen again.

Leaving them behind would put danger in the hands of his sister and those around him.

Xu Nuo, who was sleeping soundly in the manor, was awakened by the explosion. She jumped up and left the room in her pajamas.

Zhang Ruonan, who was in the next room, also opened her door. The two exchanged a glance and went directly to knock on Xu Yuan's door.

When the door opened and they didn't see Xu Yuan, they immediately understood what was happening and headed downstairs.

As soon as they opened the door, two figures appeared in front of them; it was Uncle Wang with another bodyguard from the Zhang family.

The Zhang family had been secretly protecting Zhang Ruonan, and they naturally left when they heard the commotion.

"Miss Xu, there was an explosion just now. I've already sent people to check it out. It's safer for you to stay inside and not come out."

Uncle Wang respectfully reminded him.

He glanced back but didn't see Xu Yuan.

Why didn't the wish come true after making such a big commotion?

Just then, Xu Nuo said worriedly, "It must be my brother. I need to go see him."

"You mean, Mr. Xu isn't in the room?" Uncle Wang's eyes widened.

His men have been outside the whole time, but they haven't seen Xu Yuan come out.

"Miss Xu, don't worry, Mr. Xu will definitely be alright."

I immediately sent people to look for it.

Uncle Wang turned around and made a phone call. The people who went to check the scene outside rushed back.

"Uncle Wang, there has been an explosion outside. One person was killed. He looked like someone from Chrysanthemum Country, but his face was unrecognizable."

"A sniper rifle was also found at the scene."

The man handed over the sniper rifle he had brought back: "Our people believe there are other people at the scene. Mr. Xu may have gone to chase after the escapees."

Uncle Wang nodded and carefully examined the sniper rifle in his hand: "Go and verify if it's the same gun we were attacked with on the road during the day."

"Send more personnel to ensure the safety of Miss Xu and Miss Xiao."

After giving his instructions, Uncle Wang walked to the side and continued making phone calls.

"Mr. Zhang, something unexpected has happened."

Our people discovered that the other party appears to be an assassin from the Chrysanthemum Kingdom…

On the other side, Xu Yuan swiftly traversed the night, chasing after the other party out of Yunding Mountain and following their trail into the brightly lit city.

The city was bustling and dazzling at night, and the escapees blended into the crowd, making it more difficult to find those who wanted to make wishes.

"That's really cunning."

Xu Yuan muttered something to himself and followed them into a secluded alley. At the end of the alley, a dark figure moved swiftly.

"Got you?"

He quickened his pace and chased after them for another half hour, gradually leaving the city and entering the sparsely populated suburbs.

Xu Yuan had a strange, ominous feeling; it seemed like the other person was deliberately playing games with him.

He looked up abruptly, and the stone monument of the martyrs' cemetery came into view.

"wrong."

Realizing something was wrong, Xu Yuan turned to leave, but suddenly light shone around him, and red threads wove into a large net, trapping him and rapidly shrinking away.

With a loud bang, the ground beneath their feet suddenly cracked open. Xu Yuan, trying to dodge the incoming red lines, was caught off guard and fell straight down.

bang...

As soon as he threw his wish onto the stone on the ground, his first instinct was to jump up. Just as he stood up, an iron net appeared above the hole, blocking his way.

"Ha ha……"

"Like catching a turtle in a jar, where can you run now?"

Several dark figures appeared at the cave entrance, standing on the iron netting, looking down at the wishing area.

"Aren't you good at fighting?"

"Come and hit me if you dare!"

"Moriji?"

As soon as the person above spoke, Xu Yuan recognized his voice.

"That's right, it's me."

Mori held a flashlight in his hand and shone the bright light on Xu Yuan's face: "Didn't expect that, did you? You'll fall for my tricks."

Actually, I should thank you.

"If you hadn't sent me to your martyrs' cemetery, I wouldn't have discovered that this is the Mingdai Dragon Vein that we've been searching for."

"Tell me, should I thank you?"

"Dragon Vein?" Xu Yuan narrowed his eyes, sensing the fluctuations in the guardian's aura.

As Moriji said, there is indeed a dragon vein here.

"Were the coffins on the road during the day also your doing?"

"That was an accident," Moriji readily admitted.

The wish was already in their hands; there was nothing to hide.

"When we were exploring the dragon vein, we suddenly discovered a large number of coffins, and the one on the road was one of them."

I just never expected that you would run into me like this.

"I've fought you before, and I know your skills."

"To prevent our plans from being exposed too soon, we have no choice but to get rid of you quickly."

"However, you now have another option."

Moriji stared smugly at Xu Yuan, who had fallen into the trap: "Come work for me, work for my great Chrysanthemum Kingdom."

"With your abilities, I can guarantee you a place in our organization."

"Whatever you want, we can give you. How about it, my friend?"

"Women, power, money—whatever you want, I can give you."

Once China falls into our hands, you can even rise to a higher position.

Back then, you were second only to the emperor, above all others.

"Just thinking about it is an unparalleled honor. Don't you yearn for it?"

Moriji danced with excitement, as if he had already succeeded.

"You can have whatever you want? That sounds pretty tempting."

Xu Yuan looked completely serious.

Seeing his expression, Moriji immediately became serious.

Xu Yuan is a rare talent, and that's exactly the kind of person they need. Moriji is willing to pay a price to win him over.
