Mu An really wasn't lying.
As a 'villain' who had the script in hand beforehand, he naturally knew that someone was coming to kidnap him on the way.
And to deal with those who came to 'block the road', he did indeed spend a little time.
So, he was just a bit late.
But it was nothing serious.
Mu Wanrou is a big female lead with great fortune. Even if he doesn't intervene now, according to the original script, she wouldn't be in any life-threatening crisis!
.....
Meanwhile, Long Haotian secretly arrived near Qingchuan Airport. He was wearing a black hat, trying to cover his head full of green hair! But everyone knows that the power of grass, though small, is incredibly stubborn. Not to mention being pressed by a hat; even if it were pressed by a stone, it could still force its way out!
"Grass (referring to hair)!"
Long Haotian couldn't help but curse under his breath at his unruly green hair. Ever since he had that episode last time, he didn't know why, but these troublesome things suddenly sprouted on his head. Coupled with the perfectly timed 'Declaration of Independence,' he unexpectedly went viral on the internet again!
Now, whenever he casually goes out, he can be ambushed by a few of his little black fans who jump out from who knows where to dance awkwardly in front of him. Or they keep repeating, "Everyone, look at me! I have an announcement to make: I'm a big cutie!"
Being pursued like this made him so angry that countless strands of green hair were about to stand up!
Not only that, but he was also harshly scolded by the Gong family, who blamed him for losing their face! If it weren't for his understanding of human relationships, strategically choosing to kneel before his mother-in-law and the Gong family, abandoning the dignity of a man, he would probably have been kicked out of the Gong family by now!
If that happened, he would fail the assessment task given to him by his master at the Dragon King Hall! To inherit the Dragon King Hall, what is a little grievance worth? Just a small humiliation!
As a proper man, he naturally... endured it! Long Haotian clenched his fists, his gaze becoming more resolute.
To get back to the point, he came to Qingchuan Airport to pick someone up. But it was the kind of secretive outing! If his mother-in-law found out, he would probably be punished to kneel and clean the toilet a thousand times again!
As for who he was picking up... it was naturally the members of the Killing God Squad he had been eagerly awaiting! This is a team composed of the world's top assassins. Just taking one of them out would be enough to instill fear in anyone!
Most importantly, this was one of the powers he controlled! "The Killing God Squad returned just in time!"
"Now I have to play the role of a son-in-law of the Gong family, without revealing my identity or using the power of the Dragon King Hall, but that doesn't stop me from using my own subordinates! This is also part of my power; using my own strength doesn't count as borrowing external force!"
"If the Killing God Squad can help me execute some tasks in secret, it will undoubtedly reduce the difficulty of this trial!"
"At that time, I will definitely make that woman Gong Jinyao look at me in a new light!"
"Always giving me that cold expression, huh? I can't wait to see you kneel and lick my feet when you find out my true identity!"
Long Haotian muttered to himself, growing more excited as he spoke, and finally couldn't help but let out a sinister laugh. It was as if he had gone from thinking about picking someone up to envisioning himself successfully inheriting the Dragon King Hall, marrying countless rich beauties, stepping on the villain, and ultimately reaching the pinnacle of life!
"Mom, there's a fool laughing at a trash can! And he looks so creepy!"
"Let's go, let's go! We need to leave here quickly! I told you before, don't get close to fools; you'll get infected!"
A mother and child looked at Long Haotian with great disdain and then quickly left.
Long Haotian: "..."
"Damn!"
Long Haotian's face turned red, like he was constipated, and in the end, he could only squeeze out one word. If it weren't for the fact that he was in his own country, he would have rushed over to take action and sent those two to meet the King of Hell!
How dare ordinary people mock him, the Dragon King? They really have no idea what death is!
"By the way, where is my Killing God Squad?"
Long Haotian stretched his neck, patiently waiting for the Killing God Squad that could help him turn the tide.
On the other side, five people wearing sunglasses had unknowingly arrived at a hidden location. The earlier sounds of explosions mixed with the rain had clearly caught their attention! Among them were both men and women, exuding an aura that suggested they were not to be trifled with. This made many ordinary passersby instinctively quicken their pace, not daring to stay near them for too long.
They were the members of the Killing God Squad that Long Haotian had been anxiously waiting for!
"Red Fox, look over there! Is that the target the Dragon King wanted us to take out?"
A burly man pointed at Mu An in the distance, his face filled with excitement at seeing his prey.
"From a general rational perspective, it indeed seems to be!"
A slender young man adjusted his gold-rimmed glasses and calmly analyzed. With his strong perception abilities, he was always accurate in identifying someone's identity! The prey was indeed right in front of them!
"Then what are we waiting for? He looks like an ordinary person, weak and frail; a gust of wind could probably break him!"
"I don't know why the Dragon King wants us to take action; it really feels like using a sledgehammer to crack a nut!"
The burly man spat disdainfully on the ground.
"Perhaps the Dragon King is currently undergoing a trial and it's not suitable for him to act personally!"
Red Fox pondered for a moment and provided a reasonable explanation.
"If we take him out, it would be the perfect first gift for the Dragon King!"
The burly man grinned and decisively stepped into the rain. His bronze skin and towering physique made him look like a violent beast!
He probably could crush that little chick's neck with just a bit of force, right? This task would be completed easily and simply! The Dragon King would definitely love the gift I bring!
Thinking this, the burly man's smile became even more sinister. The other team members hesitated for a moment but followed suit. Based on their past experiences, there had been no one the Killing God Squad couldn't take down!
Let alone this time, the target was just an 'ordinary person'! Isn't it easy to erase any trace of his existence in this world?!
"You guys..."
The cautious Red Fox was about to speak up to stop them, wanting to prevent everyone from being so impulsive and blind.
But then he thought again. Since the Dragon King said the other party was an ordinary person, wouldn't it be a bit impolite to doubt that too much?
After all, he was a staunch supporter of the Dragon King!
So soon, he also followed the others into the rain. How could the first gift for the Dragon King be without his contribution?!
