# Chapter 1324: Beyond the Plan

So Xiangzhi's little moves had been seen by Mila all along?

Her ultimate counter-kill journey was way too tough, wasn't it?

Still, had to negotiate with Mila!

Make her my inside agent, prevent any chaos, just in case she tries to save me with all her might and ends up messing things up!

Besides, Jiangnan was very reassured with Mila!

After all, the little one's acting had always been on point!

Jiangnan stealthily raised his finger!

Started writing characters on her belly!

Mila felt a ticklish sensation on her stomach, could barely hold back a laugh!

(๐˃̶﹏˂̶๐)

She could only close her eyes, biting her lower lip tightly, enduring the ticklishness while carefully feeling what Jiangnan was writing!

Her heart even followed with excitement!

Giggle giggle~ Another game of acting to fool people?

Jiangnan gege was way too good at this, wasn't he?

Leave it to Mila, I'll definitely take good care of you!

At this moment, Mila could no longer contain the excitement in her heart!

She was even looking forward to Jiangnan's death!

Mila tucked her head into Jiangnan's chest and gave an almost imperceptible nod.

Jiangnan snickered inwardly.

Everything was ready, just waiting for Xiangzhi to make her move!

But when he sneakily observed Xiangzhi again, she was still curled up in the corner pretending to sleep, with no intention of acting at all!

Jiangnan: ...

...

Meanwhile, on the signal tower outside the Bei family villa complex!

Nate, the Shadow Dao Heaven, stood on the steel frame in black clothes, gazing north!

International codename: Shadow!

He was a notorious assassin within the Divine Group!

At this moment, his phone rang, and Baldr's impatient voice came through.

"Is this how you do your job for me? I don't want news of a failed assassination!"

"What? Do you really want me to personally make a trip to Xia Guo?"

Nate smiled bitterly, quickly replied respectfully: "Sorry, Lord Baldr. The first strike was my negligence."

"I didn't consider that the people around Jiangnan would be that strong. The second strike is already prepared. Jiangnan has no chance of survival!"

"By the next morning, he'll be on the international headlines!"

Baldr squinted: "Better be that way. I await your news."

He hung up.

Standing beside Nate was a giant muscular brute!

Full of fierce features, looking extremely ferocious!

Also a Dao Heaven rank! Named Pei Lun!

International codename: Rioter!

The only difference was that he was a stateless Dao Heaven, without any national background, roaming lawless places like the City of Sin, Blood Capital, and Nightless City.

From his international codename, one could tell he was a tough guy.

(╯ಠдಠ╰) "Brother, we agreed beforehand. I'm only here because I owe the Divine Group a favor, that's why I came to help!"

"I won't make a move on Jiangnan. The retaliation from Xia Guo is something I can't afford as a lone wolf!"

"Regardless of success or failure, don't drag me into this afterward."

Nate patted Pei Lun's shoulder: "Brother, rest assured! The Divine Group will bear all consequences. You don't need to make a move on Jiangnan!"

"Just handle those two old men. The rest is for us!"

"Besides, with Lord Baldr behind us, what are you afraid of?"

Pei Lun's expression softened a bit: "The young have the edge in a fight. I'll handle those two! Put some clothes on me. I don't want to show my face."

Nate smiled faintly: "Done! Shadow Armor!"

Countless shadow substances flowed like water, covering Pei Lun's body surface!

Transforming him into a three-meter-tall shadow monster with burly limbs, a mouthful of sharp teeth, and blood-red eyes!

A perfect replica of Venom's complete form!

Nate shifted his gaze and landed on the two people beside him!

Both were Starlight rank!

One male, one female!

The girl wore a dark red tight suit, with two blood groove daggers made of spirit-binding steel stuck in the scabbard at her lower back!

Pale skin and a head of scarlet hair!

Named Su Fei, international codename: Blood Plasma!

(⁎⁍̴̛~⁍̴̛)

As for the man, he had a lizard head, with a pink tongue hanging out of his mouth!

His whole body was wrapped in green-gray scales, with a perverted expression!

(๑◞ิټ◟ิ)

His name was Lan Ge! International codename: Gecko!

Nate's expression turned serious: "Both of you have been through layers of screening. You're the top assassins of the Divine Group!"

"Don't screw up. Remember! Don't let Jiangnan touch your bodies. If he does, immediately cut off the touched part!"

"Keep Jiangnan away from that golden-haired girl. Don't let him recover!"

"Jiangnan's tentacles have a self-healing ability, so watch out for that. Don't let him grab a blood bag."

Su Fei licked her crimson lips, giggling: "Don't worry. All their intel is already in my head!"

"Jiangnan won't have a chance to recover."

Lan Ge's eyes were full of excitement: "To personally participate in the mission to assassinate Jiangnan, just thinking about it is thrilling!"

"I really want to see what expression Jiangnan will make when he dies!"

"So, we don't need to grab some hostages? Just go straight in?"

Nate sneered: "After the first strike, Jiangnan must be alert. Any further preparation is unnecessary!"

"As for hostages, aren't all the people around him good enough? Move out!"

"The night is my home turf, Nate's!"

As he spoke, his body directly turned into shadow, merging into the vast night sky.

Su Fei flew straight toward the Bei family villa complex!

Lan Ge plunged into the ground like a spear. The soil was like water to him!

Pei Lun, transformed into the three-meter shadow monster, landed with a massive jump and charged toward the Bei family villa at extreme speed!

...

On the bed, Jiangnan was going crazy!

Could little stinky Xiangzhi hurry up? Was she going to make a move or not?

Wasn't the golden finger enough?

Did he have to give her two more pieces of equipment?

Just then, Xiangzhi in the corner finally mustered her courage!

But at that very moment, an extreme sense of crisis enveloped Jiangnan's whole body!

Without a second thought, his body instinctively activated Displacement!

The next moment!

Beiqiu, wearing a nightgown, a ball-capped sleep hat, reading glasses on her face, and holding a book in her hands, was instantly displaced over!

Suspended above the bed in a sitting position!

Beiqiu's eyes were blank!

(◞꒪~꒪◟) ???

Where is this?

But the next second, a giant shadow blade slashed upward from under the bed!

The entire bed was cut in two, about to strike Beiqiu's vitals!

Beiqiu's eyes nearly split open. She felt a chill beneath her!

"Wind Wall!"

A wind wall instantly formed at her crotch!

"Boom!"

With a loud noise, Beiqiu was shot upward like an anti-aircraft cannon, straight through the ceiling. The immense force sent her flying into the sky!

The entire luxury villa was split open by the shadow blade!

In an instant, the shadow blade collapsed, turning into countless black tentacles, heading straight for Mila!

Take out the healer first!

Mila wasn't asleep at all. The moment the shadow blade slashed, she activated the Time Stop domain!

The shadow tentacles were frozen. Lan, who was sound asleep, was also woken by the commotion!

She leaped and hugged Mila's slender waist, instantly teleporting Mila out of the villa!

Xiangzhi's eyes widened!

The Divine Group's second strike came this fast?

She stood up and shouted!

٩(#ᵒ̌⌂ᵒ̌#)۶ "Save me! Save me!"

Even though I'm on probation, I'm loyal to the organization! I haven't leaked any useful information!

It was all that woman named Eda who said it!

Xiao Jiuwo, startled, didn't care about anything else. It stood up, turned dark blue!

A Snow Kingdom Descends sprayed onto Xiangzhi!

Xiangzhi, who was loudly calling for help, was instantly frozen into an ice block, sealed in a giant ice sculpture!

Meanwhile, Beiqiu, struck by the shadow blade, was knocked flying a thousand meters into the sky!

Feeling a dull pain, her mentality exploded!

(ꐦʘ̆益ʘ̥̆) "Which old bastard dared to cut me? Bastard!"

Old me was in the room studying incantation texts. Who did I provoke? How did I end up as a shield?

Looking at the villa cut in half, Beiqiu's heart was bleeding!

An assassination targeting Jiangnan?

Jiangnan did it? Ahhh!

He really brought the thunder to my house!

[From Beiqiu's Resentment +1000!]

[From Beiqiu...]

At that moment, in Beiqiu's study, Jiangnan sat on a stool in shorts, looking annoyed!

The Divine Group's second strike came this fast?

Damn it, my grand plan to cross the sea under heaven's cover hadn't even started yet! Why are you guys messing things up?

The intensity of the second strike was even more terrifying than the first. The first strike already had a Dao Heaven involved!

Who knew what pit the Divine Group had prepared for him this time?

Although Jiangnan wanted to fake his death and escape, it had to be under circumstances he could control!

Otherwise, he might really end up dead!

Had to fight it out for now?

"Heh~ Old lady's pretty diligent in her studies?"

During the meeting earlier, when Beiqiu hit Jiangnan's hand, he had already left a Spatial Mark on her!

This had become a habit!

Who knew when he might need her as a shield? He didn't expect to use it so soon!

"Boom!"

Shadow spikes pierced through the villa Jiangnan was in, riddling it with holes!

It stabbed fiercely toward Jiangnan's location with an irresistible force!

"Swap again!"

The next instant, Jiangnan appeared high in the sky, leisurely pulling out a pair of big shorts and putting them on!

Calmly dressing himself!

Back in her seat, Beiqiu looked at the shadow blades stabbing toward her from all directions, her forehead veins bulging!

[From Beiqiu's Resentment +1000!]

(ꐦథ口థꐦ) "Jiangnan! Your grandma's leg!"

Using me as a shield again?

"Wind Cannon!"

A powerful wind pressure blasted out in an unstoppable manner!

Countless shadow spikes were torn apart by the strong wind, but the big villa was also shattered by Beiqiu's move!

Such a huge commotion had long awakened Zhong Yingxue and the others!

Especially under the condition of being assassinated by the Divine Group, they hadn't slept soundly at all!

Luo Jiaoyang bounced off the bed, about to rush out!

Suddenly, a three-meter-tall shadow monster created five ear-piercing sonic booms, like a cannonball!

It smashed through seven or eight villas in succession, the violent impact and wind pressure destroying everything along the way!

It charged straight toward Chen Daoyi and Luo Jiaoyang!
