'It's over!'
'Completely over!'
'A moment of carelessness leads to total defeat!'
Wu Yaodong was in despair.
His ultimate 'self-detonation' naturally drew unanimous blame and curses from all the villagers of Wu Family Village.
Because this had deeply affected everyone's interests!
"I knew Wu Yaodong was unreliable! Who would expose their own secrets?"
"If someone asks, do you have to answer honestly? Are you a dog raised by the other party?"
"Clan leader, you're confused! We're all going to be ruined because of you!"
"I wondered why he was so kind to help us make money, but it turns out he's an undercover cop, just to lure us in and send us all to prison!"
.....
With one baseless accusation after another thrown at him, Wu Yaodong could only smile bitterly, choosing not to explain or even bother to defend himself.
These ignorant people had no idea what kind of existence they had provoked!
However, with his meticulous mind, he suddenly realized that perhaps there was still a glimmer of hope.
He had already cleaned up all the evidence beforehand.
Even if the police came to search now, they probably wouldn't find any substantial evidence.
Even if there were a trace or two, the fire wouldn't reach him!
In the investigation of cases in Long Country, as long as there was no substantial evidence, no one could convict him!
But suddenly, Mu An spoke up.
His sharp gaze seemed like a blade, directly peeling away Wu Yaodong's hidden heart, leaving him nowhere to escape.
"Do you think you've done everything flawlessly, and without evidence, we can't do anything to you?"
"But think about it this way: since I can make you unwillingly speak the truth, I can make others do the same!"
"You can erase temporary evidence, but can you guarantee that you've cleaned up all the evidence from the moment you got involved in this business until now?"
"Moreover…"
Mu An leaned closer, deliberately lowering his voice.
"Do you really think I need evidence to kill you?"
At that moment, looking into Mu An's murderous eyes, Wu Yaodong felt as if he had fallen into an ice cellar.
His actor-level disguise finally couldn't hold up anymore; his face turned pale, and his pupils shrank in deep terror.
'Damn!'
'Really damn it!'
He had forgotten that this person with extraordinary power could no longer be judged by common sense!
Killing someone for them was as easy as squashing an ant; once dead, it was dead—no reason needed!
So, would he… die?
Wu Yaodong's throat rolled, his mind shaken violently.
He was a proud person!
He could accept failure and death, but he was unwilling to accept being crushed like an ant!
[Your mysterious methods and unabashed threats have successfully shattered Wu Yaodong's mental defenses. His luck -2000, congratulations, you have received the reward [Early Master Realm? Number of Shadow Guards +3]!]
…..
"Don't make me take action; I'll leave you some dignity. Just go in and eat peanuts honestly!"
"Oh, and remember to be a good person in your next life!"
Mu An patted the other's shoulder, revealing a devilishly sunny smile.
Earlier, he had used the [Identification Eye] to observe Wu Yaodong.
It could only be said that he was indeed a character, leading the impoverished Wu Family Village out of despair and gradually developing it into a gray empire.
Although this gray empire was still just a prototype, it was enough to show that his abilities were remarkable!
It was just a pity that in the face of his ever-expanding ambitions, these abilities had been used for nefarious purposes, and now there was no turning back...
"Ha, the victor takes all; I have nothing to say!"
"As for being a good person in the next life? Ha, in this world, good people will only be devoured until not a bone remains..."
Wu Yaodong straightened his back.
He looked at Mu An with reluctance and said in a low voice.
"If I had your abilities, the one losing today wouldn't be me!"
"But unfortunately, there are no 'ifs' in this world, only results!"
Mu An shrugged indifferently.
Right!
In this world, there are only 'results', no 'ifs'!
Thinking of this, Wu Yaodong smiled bitterly.
He felt like a deflated balloon, his previously straight back now bent significantly.
"Is this… really happening…?"
Until now, Liu Ziqian still felt it was somewhat unreal, as if living in a dream.
It seemed they had done something, but also seemed like they had done nothing.
The gray industrial chain that had troubled them for so long was uprooted just like that?
[From Liu Ziqian's shocked emotional fluctuation +19, congratulations, you have received the reward [Proficiency +2333]!]
[From Liu Ziqian's worshipful emotional fluctuation +30, congratulations, you have received the reward [Luck +30]!]
.....
"Of course it's real! Or should I help you prove it?"
Mu An chuckled lightly, playfully pinching the other's cheek.
Liu Ziqian: !!!
[From Liu Ziqian's embarrassed and angry emotional fluctuation +15, congratulations, you have received the reward [Cultivation Years +2 years]!]
In an instant, Liu Ziqian's cold and beautiful face flushed with a lovely hue, glaring at a certain lecher with a mix of embarrassment and anger.
Because this guy, Mu An, had sneakily 'attacked' her and pinched her hard!
There were so many people present; who knew if anyone was watching? Even if he wanted to pinch, it should have been done when...
No, no!
Why did she assume she could pinch this scumbag?
She was the pure love warrior!
She would never fall for this scumbag who was stepping on multiple boats!
She definitely, absolutely… would not! (Uncertain tone)
"How can you pinch me there in public! What if someone sees?"
Liu Ziqian pulled Mu An's collar, bringing him to her height, and pretended to say fiercely in a low voice.
"Didn't you ask me to help you prove it?"
Mu An blinked innocently.
"I haven't agreed yet!"
"But I've already proven to you that you're not dreaming! No need to thank me; just call me a good young man raised under the red flag!"
"..."
"Shameless!"
Staring at Mu An's incredibly handsome face, Liu Ziqian was momentarily at a loss for words.
In the end, she gritted her teeth and managed to squeeze out these four words.
Each word contained different emotions: gratitude, anger, shyness, affection...
This shows just how complex his emotions are at this moment!
"Thank you for the compliment!"
Mu An happily responded.
It seems he didn't feel ashamed about it, but rather proud?!
"..."
Liu Ziqian was naturally furious, but there was nothing she could do.
If it weren't for the fact that they were still on a mission, she really wanted to pounce on him and have a close-range discussion about the martial arts techniques of military boxing!
Suddenly.
Mu An's gaze sharpened as he glanced in a certain direction.
Because a certain dead person suddenly reacted!
"Haha, it's so lively here?"
"So many people kneeling to welcome my arrival, it's making me a bit embarrassed!"
