Supremely Talented Tyrant-Chapter 611 - Identity Exposed
Lijin Grand Capital, Kong Xiaozhen's residence.
At this moment, he was playing chess with his grandfather.
Ever since Kong Xiaozhen defected to Hao Jian, he had been completely estranged from Old Master Kong, but now that he learned Hao Jian wouldn't live much longer, he decided to thaw their icy relationship with Kong Xiaozhen.
Kong Xiaozhen had originally left his family because of Hao Jian, and now that Hao Jian was about to die, naturally, Kong Xiaozhen had no reason to continue wandering outside.
"You've made a terrible move!" exclaimed the old master, obviously in a good mood because he won over Kong Xiaozhen in vision, having long predicted that Hao Jian wouldn't live long.
But Kong Xiaozhen smiled and shook his head, "It's too early to conclude that it's a terrible move!"
"What, you still think that kid could survive?" Old Master Kong laughed. Wasn't Kong Xiaozhen overly confident in Hao Jian?
"He Changhuan once thought he could certainly kill Hao Jian, yet he died; Liang Jiankun also thought he had a sure victory, but he died as well; and me, I thought killing Hao Jian would be like squashing an ant, yet I ended up being his dog." Kong Xiaozhen listed these examples one by one. Although he didn't make it explicit, he seemed to believe that Hao Jian wouldn't topple so easily.
Upon hearing this, Old Master Kong's face turned unpleasant as he said coldly, "This time, with the Murong Family and the Ye Family joining forces against him, how could he possibly survive?"
"Grandfather, you don't know; Hao Jian always has unexpected moves up his sleeve. Every time you think you can corner him, he pulls out a trump card and turns danger into safety. That's something Kong Xiaozhen has come to understand while dealing with Hao Jian. The guy is too mysterious; you'll never know what kind of trump card he'll play next."
"Well, we'll just wait and see!" said Old Master Kong with a stern face.
"Checkmate!"
At that moment, Kong Xiaozhen moved his piece, effectively sealing Old Master Kong's game.
Old Master Kong was dumbfounded. Had he been checkmated?
"Grandfather, sometimes a bad move can turn into a brilliant one," Kong Xiaozhen said with a half smile, suggesting something more.
Old Master Kong then fell silent, not saying anything more.
"Let's see who has the last laugh!" Old Master Kong stopped talking, lost interest in continuing the game, and stood up to leave.
...
"Damn it, why would Moon Goddess Jiang get involved with that kid!" In the office of the Military Department, Murong Yeyun was furiously lashing out, nearly smashing everything breakable to pieces.
Yu Zhixun, standing beside him, dared not utter a word, trembling as if struck by the cold. His instincts told him that it was best to keep quiet at this moment to avoid making matters worse.
"You, go investigate what Moon Goddess Jiang and Yu Xiatang are up to. I absolutely won't let that guy ruin my plans, understand?" Murong Yeyun ordered sharply.
"Understood, I'll look into it immediately," Yu Zhixun nodded repeatedly, wishing to keep as far away from Moon Goddess Jiang as possible.
Just then, one of Murong Yeyun's attendants walked in, handing a document to Moon Goddess Jiang, then whispered a few words to Murong Yeyun.
Following that, Murong Yeyun's eyes gleamed as he burst into loud laughter, saying as he laughed, "Heaven is truly helping me, truly helping me!"
"Young Master, what brings you such joy?" asked Yu Zhixun in astonishment upon seeing this.
"The death warrant for Hao Jian has been issued; his execution will be in three days. This time even gods can't save him," said Murong Yeyun, clearly relieved that his application for Hao Jian's execution was approved so quickly.
"Does that mean that even if Moon Goddess Jiang wants to interfere, it's useless now?" Yu Zhixun also couldn't contain his elation. Was Hao Jian finally going to die?
"Moon Goddess Jiang, huh, although she is the National Guardian, she has no right to intervene in the nation's laws. The national order has been issued, would she dare to disobey?" Murong Yeyun scoffed, at this moment he was not afraid of Moon Goddess Jiang anymore.
Hearing this, Yu Zhixun was as excited as if invigorated by adrenaline, his face flushed with fervor.
He feared that Hao Jian would break free again. If that happened, he would have to face Hao Jian's wrath.
"Just wait for three more days; in three days, I will personally take Hao Jian to the execution ground!" Moon Goddess Jiang's lips curved into a sinister smile.
Meanwhile, in a desolate forest in Hua City, Moon Goddess Jiang stood amidst the evening breeze, her black hair flowing like a waterfall, dancing in the wind.
She had a cigar in her mouth and her gaze was deep, staring intently at the forest ahead where gunfire flickered continuously.
At that moment, Yu Xiatang's skin crawled as he exclaimed in shock, "What on earth are these things?"
In front of him, bizarre-looking monsters scattered and charged, engaging in battle with his troops.
If it weren't for seeing it with his own eyes, Yu Xiatang simply couldn't believe that such things could exist in the world. He even suspected that he had stepped into an alien world, where everything in front of him was extraterrestrial.
"A group of mad scientists who want to betray God created these evil creations!" Moon Goddess Jiang said indifferently, a meaningful smile on her cheeks.
Having followed Hao Jian for so many years, Moon Goddess Jiang had seen countless storms, so she was no longer surprised by such bizarre events.
In the beliefs of Westerners, humans are the creations of the creator, and any attempt to create life on their own is sacrilege.
"What do they want to do?" Yu Xiatang once asked, feeling a chill down his spine, it was too terrifying.
What purpose was there in creating such vicious, soulless, single-celled cold-blooded creatures? Such things seemed only suited for war and had no other purpose.
"Who knows? Perhaps they simply want to prove that humanity has surpassed the power of God, or maybe they plan to leverage them for warfare to reap profits, or even possibly to use them to rule the world. Anything is possible."
"However…" Moon Goddess Jiang paused and then scoffed coldly, "Whatever their purpose is, it's not anything good for humanity. Because the very existence of these things is meant for the destruction of mankind!"
Moon Goddess Jiang had reason to believe that once this experiment was fully developed, it would pose a significant danger to humankind.
Because there would be nothing left on this earth that could be their rival, except for humans!
These monsters combined the best traits of all living beings without any of their flaws, strong, swift, and fearless; they were born assassins!
"Didn't those guys consider the consequences when developing such things?" Yu Xiatang asked somewhat angrily, for he was currently grappling with these bioengineered creatures and knew how difficult they were to deal with.
One of them could challenge ten of their well-trained soldiers. He had brought three thousand men this time and in the first clash, more than half had fallen.
If it weren't for the presence of Moon Goddess Jiang with her Dragon Tooth, the consequences would have been unthinkable.
"Consequences? You're too naive. In this world, some people want to kill not because they have a grudge against someone, but simply because they have a desire to kill. Some people just want to watch the world turn into Hell, and we're lucky to have encountered such people," Moon Goddess Jiang laughed, yet her face showed not a hint of nervousness.
This made Yu Xiatang feel very uneasy. He asked Moon Goddess Jiang, "How are you not the least bit afraid? Have you encountered such people before?"
"I have! When I was on missions with Hao Jian, we came across a psychopathic bomber who enjoyed strapping bombs to women and detonating them for pleasure. The women's desperate screams were, to him, the most beautifully haunting sound, and watching them blown to pieces was an ascension of his soul. In his words, that madness was comparable to sex!"
Upon hearing this, Yu Xiatang was speechless for a long time. Could such a person even be called human? They were more like demons in human skin, right?
Yu Xiatang thought himself well-informed, but compared to Moon Goddess Jiang, he immediately felt insignificant.
The calm and carefree posture of Moon Goddess Jiang unnerved him.
Then, as if struck by a thought, Yu Xiatang exclaimed in astonishment, "Did you say you've been on missions with Hao Jian? Was that guy really a member of Dragon Tooth?"
"No!" Moon Goddess Jiang shook her head.
"Oh." Yu Xiatang replied, thinking it made sense. Although Hao Jian was impressive, it seemed unlikely he could join an elite force like Dragon Tooth, given their extremely strict entry requirements.
"He is the founder of Dragon Tooth!" Moon Goddess Jiang added, revealing that Hao Jian was not just a member but the founder of Dragon Tooth.
"What?" Yu Xiatang immediately looked as if he had seen a ghost. Hao Jian was the founder of Dragon Tooth? Was this some kind of joke?
"What? He never told you?" Moon Goddess Jiang frowned. It seemed that Hao Jian was remarkably tight-lipped, not telling anyone at all.
Yu Xiatang smiled wryly and shook his head, saying, "He only mentioned he was in the army, nothing else."
"He is the founder of Dragon Tooth, and also my mentor. The rumors outside are true; I was indeed brought up by Hao Jian himself," Moon Goddess Jiang confessed.

Upon hearing this, Yu Xiatang was utterly astounded. He could never have imagined that even Moon Goddess Jiang was cultivated by Hao Jian.
He had thought reality and truth would always have their differences, yet he had not expected them to be exactly the same.
Thinking this, Yu Xiatang could not help but sigh. His own perspective couldn't compare to that of Old Master Kong. Old Master Kong could tell at a glance that Hao Jian wasn't ordinary and made every effort to forge a good relationship with him. Looking at the situation now, it seemed truly necessary.
Yu Xiatang was relieved he had chosen to stand with Hao Jian at a critical moment, or else he would have missed a great opportunity to lead his family to prosperity.
"Since he is the founder of Dragon Tooth, why would Murong Yeyun dare to kill him?" Yu Xiatang asked. Given this information, Hao Jian ought to be a highly decorated figure; one would think such a distinguished person should be treated well.
