After becoming invincible after descending the mountain, the aloof and beautiful CEO couldn't s

All eyes turned to the source of the sound.

On the second-floor railing, a young man was leaning against something, slowly munching on an apple, looking as relaxed as if he were watching a movie.

When Han Gaoyang saw Su Hao, he was first taken aback, then overjoyed, almost shouting out, "Mr. Su, I thought you weren't coming!"

Su Hao took a bite of his apple and mumbled, "I wouldn't miss out on something as exhilarating as killing Japanese devils."

"However, you guys talked for ages outside, and I waited upstairs for ages, but after you came in, you just kept rambling on and on without actually fighting. I'm so sleepy."

He flipped and jumped down from the second floor, landing steadily in the center of the factory. He patted the apple juice off his hands, glanced at Yin Sangshu, Thousand-Handed Demon, Feng Jiutian, and Qiu Xiaochi, and said in a relaxed tone as if he were greeting them: "Oh, quite a few people. Four Grandmasters, plus a bunch of small fry, not bad lineup."

Yin Sangshu frowned, staring at Su Hao with a hint of wariness in his eyes: "Who are you?"

"Me?" Su Hao pointed to himself.

"My name is Su Hao, the deputy director of the Military Affairs Department. I heard you set up a trap here, so I came to check it out."

"So Zhan Xier gave you the position of deputy director." Yin Sangshu sneered.

"Hehe, I really don't know how she managed to get such a little brat to agree."

"There are a lot of things you don't know." Su Hao finished the last bite of the apple, casually tossed the core aside, and clapped his hands.

"Enough with the nonsense. Fight if you want, or surrender if you don't. I'm very busy."

Demon Pill Phoenix Nine Heavens chuckled sinisterly, "What an arrogant brat! Since you're so eager to die, then I'll grant your wish!"

He slammed his skull staff into the ground, and a surge of black, sinister energy erupted like a tide, transforming into countless black arrows that shot towards Su Hao.

Su Hao didn't even dodge; he simply raised his hand and waved it casually.

A surge of golden true energy swept out like a bolt of lightning, colliding with the black arrows.

"boom!"

With a loud bang, the black, sinister energy was instantly torn apart, purified, and vanished without a trace by the golden true energy.

The golden true energy, undiminished in its momentum, acted like an invisible hand, locking the neck of Demon Pill Phoenix Nine Heavens from afar.

Feng Jiutian's pupils suddenly contracted. He tried to struggle, but found that his body was completely out of his control. The evil true energy in his body seemed to have met its nemesis, and was suppressed by that golden true energy, making it impossible to mobilize even a fraction of it.

"This...this is...pure yang true qi?!" Feng Jiutian's voice was filled with terror.

Su Hao did not answer his question, but simply clenched his fists lightly.

"Snap!"

Feng Jiutian's neck was snapped by an invisible force.

His body convulsed suddenly, then he collapsed limply, his eyes wide open, unable to believe he was dying.

The entire room fell silent.

Everyone was stunned.

A master-level evil cultivator was killed by Su Hao from a distance.

Did you not even touch him?

Yin Sangshu's face turned deathly pale instantly.

He finally realized that the young man in front of him was someone he couldn't possibly handle.

"retreat!"

Without hesitation, Yinsangshu turned and ran, trying to escape this terrifying opponent.

But Su Hao wouldn't give him a chance to escape.

He flicked his finger, and a silver light flew out from his fingertip.

It was a silver needle, gleaming coldly in the dim light. Like a shooting star, it instantly caught up with the mulberry tree, piercing through the back of his head and penetrating his skull.

Yin Sangshu suddenly stopped, his expression froze, and then he slowly fell forward, crashing to the ground with a thud, never to move again.

"Damn it!" Senju Onimaru's face turned extremely ugly.

He gritted his teeth, formed hand seals, and his body suddenly became blurry before disappearing into thin air.

Invisibility.

Su Hao didn't even look, and casually threw a punch into the void to his right.

"Bang!"

With a dull, loud thud, the void seemed to have been shattered by a punch.

Senju Onimaru's figure fell from the void, spitting out a mouthful of blood. A large crater appeared in his chest, and countless ribs were broken.

He struggled to get up, but Su Hao had already walked up to him and pierced his brow with a needle.

Senju Onimaru's body stiffened abruptly, then slowly collapsed.

In the blink of an eye, three of the four grandmaster-level experts were dead and one was injured.

Qiu Xiaochi stood to the side, completely terrified.

Although he was a master of heretical cultivation, he had never seen such terrifying combat power.

The three grandmasters were instantly killed in just over ten seconds, without even a chance to fight back.

Suddenly, his legs went weak, and he almost couldn't hold onto the skull staff in his hands.

Su Hao turned his head and asked, "Do you want to die, or do you want to live?"

Qiu Xiaochi knelt down with a thud, his voice trembling with sobs: "I want to live! I want to live! Please, great hero, spare my life!"

Su Hao knocked Qiu Xiaochi unconscious with a single palm strike, then used a feint to knock out Qian Shouyin, who was hiding in the shadows. He then said to Han Gaoyang, "Take him and this Qian Shouyin back and interrogate them thoroughly. Make sure to dig out all the information they know."

Han Gaoyang finally snapped out of his shock and quickly nodded, "Yes! Deputy Director Su!"

Gui Haiyi and Wu Xiaoming finally snapped out of their shock.

They exchanged a glance, and both saw deep awe in each other's eyes.

Gui Haiyidao walked up to Su Hao, clasped his hands in a respectful salute, and said, "Your subordinate, Gui Haiyidao, greets the Deputy Director! I was quite negligent just now, please forgive me!"

Wu Xiaoming quickly followed suit and bowed, saying, "Your subordinate, Wu Xiaoming, greets the Deputy Director! Your skills have truly broadened my horizons!"

Su Hao waved his hand: "No need for formalities. Quickly clean up the scene, take what needs to be taken away, and destroy what needs to be destroyed."

"yes!"

The officers immediately sprang into action; some escorted prisoners, some searched the factory, and some destroyed the harmful virus experimental equipment.

Su Hao stood in the center of the factory, preparing to leave with the others.

Suddenly, his brow furrowed slightly.

An extremely subtle aura was slowly approaching from the void.

That aura was far more powerful than that of the four grandmasters from before; it was as deep as an abyss, carrying an ancient and dangerous feel.

Su Hao stopped and looked out into the dark void outside the factory. He said calmly, "Since you're here, why hide? Come out."

In the darkness, a blurry black shadow slowly emerged.

It was a figure whose face was obscured, shrouded in a layer of black mist. Only a pair of scarlet eyes could be vaguely seen, gleaming with a cold light in the darkness.

The shadowy figure didn't speak, but simply raised his hand and slapped Su Hao from afar.

This palm strike was silent and stealthy, yet it carried a devastating pressure, as if the entire space trembled under its power.

The surrounding air instantly became viscous, and an invisible pressure enveloped an area of ​​tens of meters in radius.

Su Hao's gaze sharpened slightly. Instead of retreating, he advanced and met the attack with a palm strike of his own.

"boom!"

The two palms collided, unleashing a deafening roar.

A violent shockwave swept outwards, blowing away discarded equipment and fabrics from the factory, and causing spiderweb-like cracks to appear on the walls.

The shadowy figure swayed slightly, then transformed into a wisp of black smoke and swiftly disappeared into the distance, leaving only a hoarse voice echoing in the night sky.

"The successor of the peerless killing god... truly lives up to his name... We will meet again..."

The sound gradually faded away in the night wind.

Su Hao withdrew his hand, staring at the direction where the dark figure had disappeared, a hint of solemnity flashing in his eyes.

Gui Haiyi and Wu Xiaoming rushed over and breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that Su Hao was safe and sound.

Gui Haiyi asked urgently, "Deputy Director, who was that person just now?"

"I don't know." Su Hao shook his head.

"But he is very strong, at least above the peak of the Grandmaster level, and may have even reached a higher level."

Wu Xiaoming gasped, "Higher than a Grandmaster? What level is that?"

"Celestial Master," Su Hao slowly uttered the four words.

Gui Haiyi and Wu Xiaoming exchanged a glance, both seeing shock in each other's eyes.

Celestial Master—that's a legendary realm. In the entire ancient martial arts world of China, only a handful of people can reach that level.

Su Hao withdrew his gaze and said to the two, "Report today's events truthfully to the director when you get back. That shadowy figure is not someone you can handle. If you encounter him in the future, do not fight him head-on; notify me immediately."

"yes!"

The members of the Martial Arts Department escorted Qiu Xiaochi and Qian Shouyin away from the abandoned clothing factory.

The virus laboratory and related equipment inside the factory were also completely destroyed.

Su Hao did not leave immediately.

He leaped onto a large tree outside the factory, concealed himself among the branches and leaves, and quietly waited, suppressing his aura.

About fifteen minutes later, a dark figure indeed returned silently.

It was the same mysterious man who had just exchanged blows with Su Hao.

The dark figure circled the factory ruins once, confirming that all the Martial Division members had evacuated, before landing on a broken wall. It muttered to itself, "The successor has emerged… and those three top female powerhouses have all descended the mountain… It seems the master's prediction of the future was indeed correct. The power structure of China is about to undergo a complete reshuffle…"

He paused, then whispered, "We must go back immediately to report to our master and make preparations in advance."

After saying that, the shadowy figure transformed into a wisp of black smoke and disappeared into the night.

Su Hao peeked out from among the leaves, gazing intently in the direction the dark figure had disappeared.

He did not intervene.

Because he knew that this shadowy figure was just a minor player behind the scenes, and the real enemy was hiding in the deeper shadows.

Su Hao wanted to play the long game and catch a big fish.

He wanted to see just who this enemy was, the one that his three masters had been plotting against for over a decade...
