Chapter 239: Jun Wushuang was surrounded

Zuo Feng, cloaked in a black robe, silently infiltrated Lord Gun's territory with Fatty.

Zuo Feng naturally couldn't directly infiltrate the office area; he only needed to wait patiently on the outskirts of the office area. He believed it wouldn't be long before powerful individuals arrived, at which point Jun Wushuang would naturally be forced to reveal himself.

At this moment, Jun Wushuang was sitting in his office, his brows slightly furrowed.

He had been busy taking over Lord Gun's forces recently, so he hadn't been able to devote much energy to monitoring news from the Bounty Hall.

Therefore, he hadn't received the news that he had been placed on the bounty list immediately.

But today, Jun Wushuang felt a sense of unease, yet after much thought, he couldn't pinpoint what the problem was.

He subconsciously rubbed his brow, a vague premonition of misfortune stirring within him.

He stood up, walked to the window, looked out, and his thoughts drifted far away.

That direction was the office area where Black Wolf was located. Black Wolf also knew about Lord Gun's death, a piece of news Jun Wushuang had deliberately leaked to him.

Ninth Lord's death had too great an impact; once the news was confirmed, he would be the sole beneficiary and would inevitably become a key observation target for the higher-ups, which would be extremely detrimental to his subsequent plans.

Therefore, he chose to leak the news to Black Wolf, using it to divert the higher-ups' attention, and even allowing himself to fall behind in the competition.

Jun Wushuang wasn't worried that Black Wolf would pose a threat to him. With his strength, killing Black Wolf and making him disappear without a trace would be effortless.

By then, all of Black Wolf's efforts would merely be preparing a wedding dress for him.

Everything was proceeding according to his plan, but the unease in Jun Wushuang's heart grew stronger, yet he truly couldn't think of any variables.

He lit a cigarette and took a deep drag.

Amidst the swirling smoke, Jun Wushuang's pupils suddenly contracted, because he saw dozens of figures swiftly streaking through the air outside the window. Their speed definitely belonged to powerhouses who had lit the Six Lotus Seeds, and they were extremely rare flying Mutants!

In the entire Mo Tianya, only the leader and two deputy leaders could mobilize so many flying Mutants at once. Especially—these flying Mutants were clearly heading straight for his direction.

Jun Wushuang's heart tightened. He quickly extinguished his cigarette, his gaze fixed on the figures in the sky, wondering, 'Are they coming for me?'

He quickly recalled if he had revealed any flaws recently, but after thinking it over, his plan was meticulous, with no loopholes at all. Even Black Wolf didn't know that the news of Lord Gun's death was deliberately leaked by him.

Immediately, Jun Wushuang's pupils contracted again. In the distant sky, more than twenty figures rapidly approached, each exuding a powerful aura. Clearly, the leader and both deputy leaders had all been mobilized.

Jun Wushuang took a deep breath, quickly calmed down, and thought hard.

It didn't make sense. Lord Gun was the leader's confidant. Even if the news of Lord Gun's death was leaked, the two deputy leaders had no reason to make such a big fuss.

At most, the leader would come to investigate personally. Why were the deputy leaders also mobilized?

Could it be that they weren't here for Lord Gun's matter, but because something else major had happened?

Jun Wushuang's brows furrowed, countless thoughts flashing through his mind like lightning.

Just then, the office door was suddenly pushed open, and a subordinate rushed in, reporting in a panicked voice, "Shuang Wu, something bad has happened! The leader has brought people and surrounded us, completely!"

Upon hearing this, Jun Wushuang's heart sank. If he still couldn't confirm they were coming for him, he would be a fool.

He quickly steadied himself and asked in a deep voice, "Did the leader say anything?"

The subordinate shook his head, "No, he just brought nearly a hundred people and surrounded us tightly. They're just waiting outside, they haven't come in."

Upon hearing this, Jun Wushuang's mood grew even heavier.

The opponent's formation was too grand. If they were dealing with an ordinary powerhouse who had lit the Six Lotus Seeds, it definitely wouldn't be this kind of formation. Just those flying Mutants in the sky were all powerhouses who had lit the Six Lotus Seeds, so the people they brought were definitely top experts.

But his external identity was merely a Mutant who had lit the Six Lotus Seeds, and he had always acted very low-key. Such a grand formation targeting him could only mean one thing: the other party knew his true strength!

Jun Wushuang had guessed about seventy to eighty percent, but he didn't understand. H City was so far from E City, there was no real interaction, and it was the apocalypse. He had even changed his name, so how could his strength be exposed so quickly? Who exposed his information?

A grave look flashed in Jun Wushuang's eyes. He leaped out of the window onto the rooftop, quickly scanned his surroundings, and found that the area had been tightly sealed. Over 30 flying Mutants circled in the sky, clearly conducting comprehensive surveillance.

Jun Wushuang stood on the rooftop, carefully observing every detail; he needed to find a breakthrough point.

With this lineup, he couldn't possibly fight head-on; he had to break through and escape.

Soon, Jun Wushuang's face darkened, because two more teams of people were rapidly approaching in the distance, each with nearly a hundred people, all exuding a fierce aura.

Soon, Jun Wushuang's gaze fixed on the person leading, surrounded by dozens of powerhouses. Jun Wushuang recognized him instantly: it was Mo Tianya, the leader of Mo Tianya.

Mo Tianya's eyes were cold as he stared directly at Jun Wushuang. As soon as Mo Tianya learned of the bounty information, he immediately gathered the elite forces still in the city and rushed to this location.

A powerhouse who had lit half of the Eighth Lotus Seed had appeared, and he was alone. This instantly drove Mo Tianya mad. Although he was the leader of Mo Tianya, there were two deputy leaders who had always been openly and secretly contending with him.

If he could capture Jun Wushuang this time and uncover the secret to breaking through the bottleneck, his position in Mo Tianya would be unshakeable.

As for the authenticity of the bounty news, he didn't need to deliberately verify it. As long as he captured the person, he would naturally know if the news was true.

But now, Mo Tianya dared not be careless in the slightest. After all, the opponent was a powerhouse who had lit half of the Eighth Lotus Seed. He didn't dare to face Jun Wushuang alone; who knew if the other party would suddenly attack.

Although he had lit the Six Lotus Seeds, if Jun Wushuang had truly lit half of the Eighth Lotus Seed, he could definitely kill him in seconds. So, Mo Tianya was currently waiting outside, protected by his subordinates, not daring to easily step into the office area.

"Haha, Leader, what's with such a grand display? Did a subordinate rebel? Don't worry, Leader, I, Old Pan, am here to help you."

A hearty laugh came from a distance. A corpulent middle-aged man strode over, followed by hundreds of elite subordinates.

He was Pan Yeluo, the deputy leader of Mo Tianya, and also the person behind Black Boss. At this moment, Yin Jiu was following behind Pan Yeluo, his bald head particularly conspicuous in the sunlight, his eyes wandering.

At this moment, Yin Jiu's little heart was trembling, and he cursed inwardly, 'How unlucky! That's a powerhouse who has lit half of the Eighth Lotus Seed. How did I get stuck with such a life-threatening mission?' Moreover, because he was a defensive Mutant, his assigned task was to protect Pan Yeluo's safety.

Yin Jiu wanted to cry. If a fight really broke out, the area around Pan Yeluo would be the most dangerous. Everyone knew the principle of 'capture the king first.'

If a fight truly ensued, Pan Yeluo was very likely to become the primary target of that powerhouse who had lit half of the Eighth Lotus Seed. Could his small body withstand the attacks of such a big shot?

Yin Jiu even started to envy Black Boss. Because Black Boss wasn't a Mutant, he didn't have to participate in such dangerous matters.

But his boss's boss had personally given the order, so Yin Jiu could only brace himself and stay by Pan Yeluo's side, silently reciting a life-saving mantra: if that powerhouse really attacked Pan Yeluo, he would just lightly brush against the scattered aftershocks of the attack, then immediately fall to the ground and feign death. He still had many sweet romances to pursue; he couldn't die here.
