"Here, I've already set up signal jamming. That means even if you press that button, Di Sha's headquarters won't know anything about what's happening here. To be precise, from the moment you entered this place, all communication has been completely cut off," Lin Xiao said, not stopping him, but offering an explanation.
"You..."
Tan Lang stared intently at Lin Xiao, unable to comprehend. "How could you possibly know when I would appear?"
"Because, every move you make is within my grasp," Lin Xiao said with a slight smile. "Don't doubt it. When it comes to reconnaissance and counter-reconnaissance, even your Di Sha people would have to surrender here."
"You..."
A memory suddenly surfaced in Tan Lang's mind.
There was once an assassination mission personally undertaken by the Di Sha leader, but on that occasion, the Di Sha leader returned severely injured.
That incident had alarmed everyone in Di Sha.
After all, it wasn't just about cultivation; the Di Sha leader was already a Grandmaster, not to mention his mastery of stealth, which was unparalleled in the entire world!
Yet, such a person had been injured, and the mission had nearly failed.
And at that time, he had heard they encountered the madman from the northern border of Dragon Country.
Only that madman could make all their assassins utterly exposed!
"You... are you the Northern Dragon King?!"
Tan Lang uttered a name that he himself was unwilling to believe.
"I don't recall ever hiding my name," Lin Xiao replied, looking at the astonished man with a hint of confusion. "Had you bothered to investigate me even a little, you would have known, or even seen the news reports. I, Lin Xiao, am the Northern Dragon King."
"..."
Tan Lang stared at Lin Xiao, falling silent.
Who could possibly believe that the person before him was the Northern Dragon King? He was the Dragon Country's God of War!
If the people of Di Sha had known their target was this Northern Dragon King, Di Sha would never have accepted this contract from the outset.
Unless they wanted Di Sha to be annihilated.
Regardless of whether Di Sha succeeded in assassinating Lin Xiao, only one outcome awaited Di Sha afterward.
"If I were to take my own life here."
Tan Lang took a deep breath. His hand had already reached his neck. He then knelt on both knees, head bowed, awaiting Lin Xiao's judgment.
Tan Ang had now lost all will to fight.
"No."
Lin Xiao refused Tan Lang. "From the very beginning, all I cared about was Di Sha, not you or those two women."
"Your lives are irrelevant to me, but Di Sha must disappear before long."
Hearing this answer, Tan Lang's hand trembled.
...
Nangong Family, Nan Province.
Among the three great families of the Heavenly Association, the Zhou family was almost wiped out, but the other two great families had long since taken their people south.
They didn't want to end up like Zhou Dongyong.
From the moment they witnessed Lin Xiao instantly kill a Grandmaster, they knew they could not have any direct confrontation with him. The best approach was to have the person who had instigated all of this from behind the scenes step forward.
"Mr. Nangong... we are willing to offer one hundred billion in funds, and we only hope the Nangong family can drive Lin Xiao away from Shashi." Wang Dong sat in the conference room, placing a contract on the table.
