When Ye Hao's blade decapitated the bearded man, the handle of the bearded man's knife was also about to cut into Ye Hao's body. At that critical moment, in his mind, Ye Hao shouted to Qianqian, "Autonomous protection..." After speaking, Ye Hao decisively fainted, while the bearded man...

As the bearded muscle man's knife was about to cut into Ye Hao's waist, he showed a cruel smile, thinking that even in death, he would have completed his task, and the organization wouldn't make things difficult for his family...

This organization is good in many ways, but it controls their families, putting restraints on their actions. Only at specific times can they see their families. Seeing Ye Hao about to be beheaded by him, he naturally breathed a sigh of relief.

However, just as he breathed a sigh of relief, a faint red aura suddenly emitted from Ye Hao's body, preventing the bearded muscle man's knife from cutting any further, as if Ye Hao's body had invisible armor protecting it.

At this critical moment, Lin Ruyu and others shouted for Ye Hao, while Lu Yunsong also shouted "Big Brother" inside the car. But what happened next confused them, as they saw the bearded man's knife seemingly hitting a hard shell...

"System autonomous protection, will deactivate in three hours." The system's voice echoed in Ye Hao's blurred consciousness.

"Bang!"

The bearded muscle man froze, then felt a tremendous force from the blade, and then an overwhelming sensation of numbness and swelling pain throughout his body, lasting for three seconds. Yet, he lost all signs of life.

No one could sense he had died, only that the treasured blade Ye Hao was holding suddenly fell to the ground.

"Clang!"

After the blade hit the ground, both Ye Hao and the bearded muscle man collapsed. At that moment they simultaneously hit the ground, a dozen military vehicles roared past, each carrying ten well-prepared soldiers.

Their superiors had ordered them to ensure all individuals involved in the large-scale conflict here were taken out safely and completely.

This order wasn't just from their superiors; it was also pressured by the Lu Family and the Xue and Zhuo families in Peng City.

Although Lu Yunsong and the others charged forward, it didn't mean those secretly protecting them charged as well. Those protectors quickly reported to their respective patriarchs.

Thus, the scene of powerful families pressuring the local military unfolded.

The commander of the local military, receiving orders from the chief commander of Nanyue's largest military district and the pressure from Peng City's wealthy, hurriedly brought fierce soldiers speeding down the road.

Upon arriving at the scene, looking at the scattered heads and headless corpses, they couldn't help but shudder. Even as soldiers, they had never seen such a bloody scene. Witnessing this bloodbath, they could assure it was the first and definitely the last.

Liu Xu, commander of Peng City, took a deep breath upon arriving at the scene. Although it wasn't the bloodiest scene he'd seen in his life, it was certainly the bloodiest he'd seen in a city—a hundred miles of floating corpses... horrific, no, should say ghastly...

Stunned for a moment, Liu Xu finally found his voice and said with some difficulty, "Arrest everyone present, no resistance, bring them all back to the military district..."

As Liu Xu spoke, he noticed his subordinates were frozen in place, not moving, and he couldn't help but shout, "Why haven't you moved to arrest them?"

One of the soldiers awkwardly replied, "Sir, are we supposed to arrest those few young masters from Peng City too?"

Hearing this, Liu Xu wanted to shout to arrest them all directly but shivered upon remembering his subordinate's words. Could he provoke those young masters from Peng City?

"Well... promptly contact the local police, have them arrest and interrogate these brawlers thoroughly." Liu Xu, fearing trouble, could only have the local police handle the aftermath, while they went ahead to set up a cordon...

When Lin Ruyu called Lin Tian about the incident, Lin Tian was furious, immediately calling the Peng City Party Secretary to question the management of Peng City, as there was a large-scale brawl and the local police were sluggish in their response.

"I don't care how you explain it, if my daughter's harmed in any way, you're packing your bags to the CCPPC to retire!" Lin Tian shouted into the phone at the Party Secretary.

Upon hearing this, Peng City's Party Secretary, trembling, immediately arranged for people to support the scene. Supporting, in essence, was simply going to clean up the aftermath.

Lin Ruyu held Ye Hao's body, shouting loudly, "Ye Hao, you bastard, you haven't taken this old lady to become a legend yet... Get up..."

Noticing Ye Hao was breathing normally and seemed fine, Liu Xu stepped forward to persuade, "Miss..."

"Get lost! Don't bother me. If anything happens to my bodyguard, no matter who it is, I'll make sure they have no place to bury their remains..." Lin Ruyu coldly replied.

It was as if Lin Ruyu could change the weather. After saying that, the sky began thundering and lightning, with a faint drizzle falling as she held the unconscious Ye Hao...

About ten minutes after the military arrived, various media outlets and news agencies began raising their tools of the trade to photograph this inhumane scene.

Liu Xu hurriedly arranged people to stop them, but there were too many reporters from the news agencies, leading them to capture some of the bloody scenes despite the obstacles.

The police arrived at the scene shortly after, witnessing the chaotic scene with heads scattered all over and headless bodies lying in disarray.

At this moment, Xue Zhaolong, Lu Yunsong, and the others felt a deep sense of pride. The initial anxiety of committing murder for the first time gradually dissipated over time as they became more composed.

They all stepped forward to see Ye Hao lying in Lin Ruyu's embrace. Although Lin Ruyu was calling out to Ye Hao, they didn't reveal that Ye Hao was fine; he had just fainted from exhaustion due to overexertion.

"Ye!" Su Qing's heart was pounding rapidly. Looking at the heads and bodies scattered around, she felt an urge to vomit, but seeing Ye Hao unconscious in Lin Ruyu's arms, she suppressed her nausea and called out to Ye Hao beside Lin Ruyu.

"Ye, can you hear me? It's Qingqing!" Su Qing became even more worried when she saw Ye Hao with his eyes closed, not responding.

"Where's the ambulance? Has the ambulance arrived?" Lin Ruyu turned her head and shouted at Liu Xu.

"Soon, Miss Lin, please wait just a little longer..." Liu Xu replied, having just received a phone call from his superiors while organizing people to block the reporters.

His superior had only said one sentence, but it made Liu Xu's mind highly alert. The superior mentioned that Lin Ruyu, the daughter of Lin Tian, one of the top ten international billionaires, was involved in this brawl. If they didn't want to lose their positions, they had to handle the situation with utmost seriousness.

Liu Xu shivered when he heard it, realizing the gravity of the situation. To think that someone dared to besiege and slaughter Lin Tian's daughter? Their opponents must be formidable. How would Lin Tian unleash his wrath?

Liu Xu wasn't wrong. Lin Tian was indeed venting his anger. He dialed an encrypted phone number and coldly said, "Was this your doing? Very well, I don't need your acknowledgment. I'm just telling you, you're on my list. As soon as you step inside Huaxia, I will ensure you have no place to be buried; also, our collaboration is terminated as of now, and I will devour all your businesses within Huaxia." Lin Tian hung up as soon as he finished speaking.

On the other end of the call, a person who looked no different from a Huaxian heard Lin Tian's words and cut off the call immediately, cursing loudly, "Shit, Lin Tian, you bastard, daring to terminate our collaboration and even thinking of killing me? Very well, very well."

However, his anger turned into horror within minutes as Lin Tian truly acted, and acted ruthlessly.

A commercial storm brewed under Lin Tian's manipulation; in just half an hour, hundreds of companies within Huaxia saw their stocks plummet, facing the brink of collapse.

At this critical moment, Lin Tian injected a million worth of weak capital into the companies, obtaining the largest shareholder voting rights. It was a slap in the face to the middle-aged man from before.

It was a clear message to that middle-aged man that Lin Tian was someone who couldn't be trifled with. Lin Tian even suspected that the first hijacking incident was orchestrated by him, not to mention this time when someone besieged his daughter, how could he not be furious?

In Lin Tian's world, his daughter was the most precious. Any potential threats he perceived as harmful to his daughter, he would eliminate without mercy...

As Lin Tian stirred up a business storm, the Peng City Daily presented the unfolding events to the world.

A slew of officials in Peng City were ousted in this incident, with even higher-ups in the Public Security Ministry involved in conspiracies, causing delays in police response.

"This is truly inhumane news!" People talked about it on every street and corner of Peng City.

"Ah! It seems the wealthy second generation in Peng City still has some spine!"

"Indeed! They used to be seen as merely indulging in pleasure, but this time, their actions have been truly satisfying!"

"But what deserves our scrutiny is one of the bodyguards, whose combat power was off the charts..."

"..."

Various discussions emerged in Peng City. The top leader of Nanyue Province personally descended to deal with the matter, while Lin Tian made his voice heard in the business world, declaring that any participants in today's siege in Peng City would meet their ultimate demise.

Although many were dissatisfied with Lin Tian's declaration, given Lin Tian's leading position in the Huaxia business world, others dared not voice their discomfort.

Rarely, one of the top ten leaders of Huaxia personally phoned Lin Tian, hoping he could identify these unsettling elements within the business world.

This massive upheaval didn't just halt there; on his return home, Lin Tian ordered his elite team to take action against several obscure businesses.

Those obscure businesses were naturally connected to the person Lin Tian called, but they were merely hidden forces.

However, sitting as the leader in Huaxia's business, Lin Tian naturally had sources of intelligence. Even in partnerships, Lin Tian had everything figured out clearly.

At the First Hospital in Peng City, Ye Hao was receiving the attentive care from two women.
