Chapter 453: Dirty Tactics

“Honey, are you really going to fight that Azure Dragon? According to Tianyi, his strength isn’t weak…”

When Tianxuan learned of the Azure Dragon’s existence, he couldn’t help but feel somewhat worried. There was no doubt that Xiao Yufan was powerful—half a year ago, this man’s strength had already been enough to crush everyone including himself from the Tian Group. However, there would always be someone stronger.

“Does my wife doubt my strength?”

Xiao Yufan smiled, his lips curling slightly, his hand gently covering Tianxuan’s firm, delicate body. His eyebrows raised playfully. Having a little fun before battle might not be a bad idea after all.

“I believe in you!”

With a soft moan, Tianxuan’s jade lips were already captured by Xiao Yufan’s mouth. Her prominent peaks were effortlessly found by him. A passionate scene quietly unfolded as Xiao Yufan indulged himself in conquering her body, eventually gaining ultimate satisfaction…

Although the duel was set for two days later, the Azure Dragon remained lingering around Yaoshan because he didn’t want to return and explain anything—it was unnecessary. What he intended to do, no one could stop, not even Chen Jiamin.

“Boss, two more bottles of Erguotou…”

To the Azure Dragon, only two things were interesting: one was killing, and the other was naturally drinking. If Shanxi’s liquor was considered strong, then the liquor from Linjiang was more fragrant and smooth.

“Brother, you’ve already drunk five bottles. If you keep going like this, I’m afraid something might happen!”

Not making money when it was offered would be foolish, but looking at the Azure Dragon, the tavern owner felt somewhat hesitant. He had never seen someone drink this much liquor before. If something unexpected happened, his small tavern wouldn’t be able to handle it.

“Old sir, don’t worry. Even if I drank five more bottles, I’d still be fine!”

If Xiao Yufan saw how amiable the Azure Dragon appeared now, he would certainly be shocked. Was this really the same man that Wang Wei had listed as an S-level threat? Except for that hideous scar running across his face, there was currently no trace of danger or terror emanating from him.

Hearing the Azure Dragon’s words, the old man hesitantly brought two more bottles of Erguotou. This kind of liquor was particularly strong—most people couldn’t handle even one bottle…

Many people shifted their gazes toward the Azure Dragon, silently cursing him for showing off in their hearts, but none of them dared to show it outwardly. After all, that scar was particularly eye-catching—it was clear that this was a ruthless man.

“You’ve followed me for quite a while. Don’t you want to come out and have a drink?”

The Azure Dragon naturally disregarded those gazes with disdain. He shook his wine glass slightly, his lips curling into a sinister smile. He was the Azure Dragon—if he couldn’t sense someone following him, he wouldn’t have survived until now.

“Indeed, nothing can escape the Azure Dragon’s perception. But I thought I had hidden myself quite well. How exactly did you discover me?”

Solitary Wolf’s expression turned somewhat grim as he stepped out from a corner. He naturally understood that the Azure Dragon was referring to him. He had concealed himself well and had no idea how the Azure Dragon had detected him.

“The aura you emit betrayed you. With your abilities, trying to hide from me is nothing but a dream!”

Without even glancing at the seated Solitary Wolf, the Azure Dragon gently sipped his wine. This act caused a glint of subtle sharpness to flash in Solitary Wolf’s eyes.

“The leader said not to let you meet that person. Why did you insist on meeting him secretly? If you ruin the leader’s plan, do you think you can bear the consequences? Or do you really believe no one can deal with you?”

Solitary Wolf had never liked the Azure Dragon. Without Chen Jiamin nearby, he naturally showed no respect toward him. This man had nearly overshadowed all his glory, and Solitary Wolf had been thinking constantly about how to make him disappear completely.

“There is someone!” Although the Azure Dragon didn’t want to deal with this annoying guy, he nodded slightly, then added, “But whoever can defeat me certainly doesn’t include you!”

“Is that so? But doing this will definitely make the leader very unhappy…”

At this moment, Solitary Wolf could only invoke Chen Jiamin’s name. However, he noticed that the Azure Dragon’s expression remained unchanged. Right now, Chen Jiamin simply couldn’t touch the softest part of his heart.

“I never explain my actions. Even if he knows what I did, I doubt he would be foolish enough to appear in front of me. That would only irritate me!”

Frowning slightly, the Azure Dragon looked at Solitary Wolf with pity. Admittedly, this man was strong, but his intentions were impure. No matter how much progress he might make, he would never break free from his own limitations.

“So you’re saying you no longer listen to the leader’s orders…”

“I’m different from you. I only stay by his side to repay a debt of gratitude. He cannot control my freedom, nor do I have any obligation to remain his henchman forever!”

The Azure Dragon had no intention of giving Solitary Wolf any face. After all, respect was something one earned, not something given freely.

“Fine, very well. If even the leader can’t control you, do you think you can leave this place today?”

His attitude shifted completely, and Solitary Wolf’s smile turned vicious. He was an extremely extreme person. Since the Azure Dragon annoyed him, he was already thinking about how to eliminate him.

“Is your confidence coming from the poison you put in my food?”

As if he had already expected this, the Azure Dragon showed no surprise. Instead, with a single sentence, he caused a chill to run down Solitary Wolf’s back. He had poisoned the Azure Dragon’s meal—how could the Azure Dragon possibly know?

“How did you find out?” Solitary Wolf’s heart missed a beat. If the Azure Dragon knew he had poisoned him, then he wouldn’t have been poisoned at all. If he hadn’t been poisoned, then he had no chance at all…

“You’re too foolish. You even wear your killing intent on your face. Do you think everyone is as stupid as you? This must be your own idea to attack me, right?”

The only reason the Azure Dragon hadn’t acted against Solitary Wolf yet was because he didn’t know who had ordered the attack. If it was truly the person who had saved his life, he might not hold much resentment. After all, he owed that person his life.

But if it was Solitary Wolf’s own decision, then he naturally knew exactly what to do…

“It was the leader’s order! Don’t think I don’t know what you said when you met that person. Are you planning to betray the leader?”

Solitary Wolf’s last hope was slowly vanishing. He suddenly felt panic. He knew the Azure Dragon’s methods well—if he admitted it was his own idea, he probably wouldn’t leave this place alive.

“I hate the word ‘betrayal,’ and frankly, you’re terrible at lying. You can’t even control your emotions when you lie!”

A glint of coldness flashed in the Azure Dragon’s eyes, and his aura became naturally imposing. At this moment, Solitary Wolf regretted his decision, but it was already too late. No one could withstand the Azure Dragon’s wrath…
