Chapter 951 The Emperor-Slaying Campaign Commences
"I never expected that Ji Xiuhan would actually discover Zhao Long and Qian Yao, and even take Zhao Long's life!"
Ji Xiuhan must die! If he doesn't die this time, the Ye family will be destroyed!
The old ox sat there blankly for a long time, and soon, its eyes flashed with a cold light.
Now, it's his turn to make a move.
If you don’t succeed, you will succeed!
He had never failed to complete the tasks assigned to him by Ye Boxiong, so he was determined to do so successfully this time as well.
Even if it costs him his life, he will make sure that Ji Xiuhan stays in the Maldives forever.
In Ningcheng, Wu Jiajun's life continued as usual. Apart from occasionally going out to buy groceries and other necessities, or taking a stroll, he basically stayed in his small courtyard.
Since retiring from the martial arts world, he has never made a public appearance again.
That day, having nothing to do, he started scrolling through his phone.
Even someone as renowned as him, the industry's number one, the mighty Killer King, is no different from an ordinary person after retiring. His biggest hobby now is scrolling through his phone, reading the news, and browsing trivial matters.
"Isn't this the Ye family from the capital? How come they're on the front page?"
He quickly came across a news article related to the Ye family, featuring Ye Haitao and Xiao Ran.
He knew very little about the Ye family before, but after getting involved in Ji Xiuhan's affairs with the Ye family, he learned about their situation.
He couldn't help but carefully read through all the headlines about Xiao Ran and Ye Haitao from beginning to end. Then, thinking about the entanglement between Ji Xiuhan and Xiao Ran, he couldn't help but feel sorry for Ji Xiuhan.
Xiao Ran is the apple of the eye of one of the three great families in the capital. Ji Xiuhan is too arrogant. Such a rich young lady traveled a long distance to pursue him, but he didn't even like her.
Not only did he look down on her, but he also inexplicably married an ordinary woman and got a marriage certificate.
At this moment, Wu Jiajun really wanted to curse Ji Xiuhan for being crazy, for letting go of such an excellent woman, it was simply a waste of talent.
Thinking of Ji Xiuhan, he remembered that before Ji Xiuhan went to the Maldives, he came to him specifically to learn about assassination.
Looking at the news about the Ye family on his phone, he suddenly felt a jolt in his heart: "Ji Xiuhan seems to have a great grudge against the Ye family, having swallowed up a trillion-dollar conglomerate of the Ye family."
Could it be that the Ye family is planning to attack him while he's on vacation in the Maldives? Is that why he came to me to learn about assassination techniques?
Since Wu Jiajun was able to become the number one in the industry and was revered as the Killing Emperor, he was naturally intelligent and quickly figured out the key point.
"That guy, last time I said I would go with him to protect him, he actually refused!"
I wonder how he is now. I hope nothing bad has happened to him, after all, he did me a great favor.
Wu Jiajun continued browsing his phone, searching for news about the Maldives.
Soon, he saw a news report and was taken aback: "There's been an accident during the underwater diving project, and it seems there were casualties?"
He quickly clicked to check.
Although Ji Xiuhan had arranged for his men to suppress the news as much as possible, there were simply too many tourists from all over the world, and the bodyguards were unable to stop everyone from taking videos and sending messages.
Moreover, some tourists posted content in less common languages, which the bodyguards couldn't understand at all.
Looking at one of the photos, Wu Jiajun felt a pang of anxiety.
There was a blurry figure in the photo. Although it was far away and not very clear, the person was none other than Ji Xiuhan.
"Ji Xiuhan is on this island? Something happened on this island, and there were casualties?"
"Did an assassin really make a move against Ji Xiuhan?"
Wu Jiajun's expression turned serious.
Everything he has now was given to him by Ji Xiuhan. He is a person who values loyalty and gratitude and will repay kindness. If Ji Xiuhan is in trouble, he absolutely cannot stand idly by, especially when it concerns his life.
He pondered for a moment, then suddenly pulled out a phone number from a worn-out notebook and dialed it directly.
After quite a while, the call was finally answered.
As soon as the call connected, a joyful shout came through: "It's you? You actually called me?"
Amidst the surprise, there was also an undisguised respect.
"It's me, old friend, hello there."
Even Wu's army couldn't help but feel a sense of emotion.
This person was one of his few close friends when he was a prominent figure in the industry.
After he retired from the underworld, he deleted almost everyone's contact information, but he wrote down this person's number in his notebook.
He had been out of the underworld for many years, and if he wanted to inquire about certain things, he had to go through these old connections.
And now, this is the only person he can contact.
"After all these years, I'm so happy to finally hear your voice! So happy!"
"Your Majesty, where are you now?"
The person on the other end of the phone said excitedly.
"Don't ask me where I am. I don't want you to find out my location over the phone."
I'm calling you because I need your help with something.
Wu Jiajun said in a calm tone.
"It is my honor to serve you! Please give your instructions!"
The man's voice grew increasingly agitated.
What a joke! The Emperor of Assassination is the most brilliant and talented person in the history of the industry. For such a person to owe me a favor is an immense honor.
"Here's the thing, can you check for me if anyone in the industry has recently gone to the Maldives and is planning to take action against someone?"
"Lord Killer, you actually care about industry matters?"
The man couldn't help but speak up.
"Never mind all that, just give me news as soon as possible!"
After Wu Jiajun finished speaking, he hung up the phone.
The phone number he's using is the one he used when he dominated the industry, and he's kept it all these years without canceling it.
However, it is usually switched off, so no one can call in.
Moreover, his reputation is so great that no one dares to dial this number casually.
This is why his old friend was so pleasantly surprised when he saw the caller ID and recognized the number at a glance.
Sure enough, less than half an hour later, the man called back: "Your Excellency, the Emperor of Slaughter, recently, quite a few people from the industry have indeed gone to the Maldives, not just one or two groups, but many groups!"
Even the top five have shown up! More importantly, an astronomical bounty has appeared—a whopping 1.5 billion!
"Many waves, with a bounty as high as 1.5 billion?"
Wu Jiajun's brow twitched involuntarily.
Even when he dominated the industry, he had never seen such a high reward.
"Yes, a whopping 1.5 billion! The target appears to be a young tycoon!"
The man repeated the key information.
"Thanks, old friend. I'll come visit you sometime."
After Wu Jiajun finished speaking, he quickly hung up the phone.
"Ji Xiuhan, Ji Xiuhan, I never imagined your head would be worth so much, a full 1.5 billion!"
Offering such an exorbitant price clearly indicates their intention to destroy you. And you didn't even tell me, and you wouldn't let me accompany you! You're so arrogant!
You have no idea what kind of ruthless characters the top-ranked assassins are.
Even if you're incredibly skilled and have learned a lot from me, you're still far from being a match for top assassins!
Wu Jiajun sighed for a while, but his admiration for Ji Xiuhan grew even stronger.
It was obvious that Ji Xiuhan didn't want to trouble him.
"Looks like I need to go to the Maldives soon!"
Wu Jiajun immediately took out his phone, booked a plane ticket, and then went straight out the door.
