Tycoon War God

The situation in the international underworld intensified dramatically, causing an absolute sensation.

One billion dollars!

That was a substantial fortune!

In the underworld, one billion dollars was enough to buy the life of a Martial Arts Grandmaster.

No matter how strong a Grandmaster was, they couldn’t withstand an assassination by sniper rifle.

And so what if you could block a sniper rifle? What about rocket launchers and armor-piercing rounds?

Even the person at the top of the current bounty list was only worth two billion dollars. But that person was an existence that even the world’s number one assassin dared not try to kill.

But Lin Wudi?

This unfamiliar name made many assassination organizations and mercenary groups green with envy.

They can’t kill the one at the top, but surely they can kill this Lin Wudi?

Therefore, as soon as this bounty was issued, the entire underworld went mad, with countless people accepting the contract. A successful assassination meant a life free of worries.

”Huaxia’s Lin Wudi?”

When this name first spread through the underworld, countless people were muttering it.

”Why is he in Huaxia? That place is a forbidden land where not just assassination organizations, but even mercenary groups dare not set foot.”

Many hesitated upon discovering this information. Huaxia’s control was incredibly strict, making the chances of obtaining powerful, destructive weapons practically zero. Without such weapons, taking on a Martial Arts Grandmaster was exceedingly difficult.

However, some organizations that considered themselves powerful were unfazed.

”He’s just a Martial Arts Grandmaster. Huaxia’s Martial Arts Grandmasters might claim to be the strongest in the world, but my Blood Skeleton has killed Grandmasters before. A Martial Arts Grandmaster who isn’t even thirty? It will be a piece of cake.”

A man with a blood-red skeleton tattooed on his neck scoffed as he looked at the photo on his phone, leaping out of bed. A smooth, pale leg that had been draped over him was shaken off, prompting a displeased murmur.

”Bone Corroder, be careful. This Lin Wudi is no simple matter. No fewer than ten Martial Arts Grandmasters have died at his hands!” A red text alert popped up on the phone, indicating the mission’s danger level.

”No need!” the man replied quickly, his fingers flying across the screen. ”I am the king of assassins. Once I have my sights on a target, death is their only option!”

”You must be careful. Don’t fail in Huaxia!”

”Send me all his information!” Bone Corroder’s reply was blunt.

”Okay, I’ll send it to you now. Destroy it immediately after reading!” The message popped up, and a file was sent along with a note: Bone Corroder, good luck!

Bone Corroder was one of the world’s top assassins, having previously assassinated three internationally renowned Fighting Masters. Those experts were comparable to Martial Arts Grandmasters, but under Bone Corroder’s meticulous planning, they all died in a series of bizarre accidents.

Huaxia, Lin Wudi?

Bone Corroder put down his phone and walked to the window. He drew open the curtains and gazed out at the modern metropolis below, a cruel and chilling murderous intent curling the corners of his mouth.

I hope you don’t disappoint me. After all, you will be the first Martial Arts Grandmaster from Huaxia that I have ever hunted.

Bone Corroder smiled coldly.

Half an hour later, hotel staff found a naked woman dead in the hotel bed. This woman was the daughter of a certain Tokyo crime boss, and a bounty had previously been issued for her. The enraged boss launched an investigation, but it turned up no clues whatsoever.

「Meanwhile」

「Harbor Island」

”Master Feng, what’s the situation now?”

Huang Sheng had not yet left Harbor Island, mainly because the Hongmen President there had died three days ago. That day was right after Lin Mu had left the island.

Suddenly, countless reports came flooding in. They all claimed that this mysterious Master Lin, after killing Wan Xiong, had departed gracefully, completely unstoppable.

Huang Sheng was somewhat puzzled by this. He had personally seen Lin Mu off at the airport, so how could Lin Mu have had time to kill Wan Xiong?

Then again, given Senior’s formidable capabilities, I would believe it even if he used an avatar to commit the murder, Huang Sheng thought.

”It’s still unclear at the moment,” Feng Chen said, his expression grave. ”It’s not just Wan Xiong. A young lady from the Guo Family has also died, and someone saw her with Master Lin.”

Huang Sheng’s gaze sharpened.

The Guo Family!

The Guo Family of Harbor Island was a truly powerful and influential clan that had stood for many years, possessing a deep heritage. Rumor had it that an actual immortal, who had lived for a very long time, backed this family.

”If that’s the case, could the bounty have been issued by the Guo Family?” Huang Sheng asked grimly.

Feng Chen gave a wry smile. ”It’s really hard to guess, but all the major assassin organizations are going mad. I believe many have already come to Huaxia, preparing to kill Master Lin.”

”They’re courting death!” Huang Sheng scoffed. ”With Senior’s cultivation being so unprecedented, anyone who dares to come to Huaxia is walking a dead-end path!”

”Indeed,” Feng Chen agreed before his brows furrowed in concern. ”What worries me is that if these assassin organizations can’t deal with Master Lin, they might go after his family.”

Huang Sheng nodded. ”Master Feng, let’s head to the Mainland at once to protect Senior’s family! As long as he has nothing to worry about, any number of assassins who show up will die!”

...

「Jiangbei」

In the large conference room of the Boheng Pharma subsidiary.

”Manager Liu, don’t blame me for not reminding you. We have less than half an hour until our agreed-upon deadline,” a man in a white suit said with a faint smile, looking at Liu Zijian, who sat at the head of the table.

This man, despite not being in Jiangbei for long, had already made a huge name for himself. Boheng Pharma was now the hottest enterprise in Jiangbei. The several drugs they had developed and brought to market had already made a significant impact on the entire industry, attracting countless partners.

The man in the suit was the head of a company from Yue Province called Magical Biotech Company, and his purpose in coming to Jiangbei was to seek a partnership with Liu Zijian. Of course, it was less a partnership and more a plan to get their hands on Boheng Pharma’s drug formulas before kicking them out of the picture.

Magical Biotech Company had pulled this stunt many times before. Although many of their former partners wanted to sue, the company’s influence was such that an average person couldn’t afford to offend them.

”I cannot agree to your terms,” Liu Zijian said, tapping his fingers lightly on the table. ”We can cooperate, but the method must change.”

The man chuckled. ”And how would you like to change it, Manager Liu?”

Liu Zijian stated, ”Magical Biotech Company will only have sales rights, not the right to participate in research and development. That is the bottom line!”

The man’s eyebrows shot up. ”So, we’re at an impasse?”

”How do you want to negotiate? I’ll be the one to talk with you.”

Just then, a calm voice drifted in, and a young man walked into the conference room.
