Xu Hao nodded slightly and said, "Understood, that's why assassins all prefer to target those with high bounties rather than thinking about killing a rich man and seizing his property. In today's world, with the increasing prevalence of bank cards and online payments, along with the growing difficulty of disguising personal identity information, the latter method is really too hard."

"That's indeed the truth." Lawrence nodded in agreement.

"Then, who is the person ranked first? How high is his bounty?" Xu Hao asked.

Lawrence apologized and said, "Young Master, my clearance only allows me to see from the one-hundredth to the fiftieth rank. The names of the top fifty require higher clearance to be seen."

"There's even such a level of division?"

Xu Hao was slightly taken aback and said, "Then tell me about the Heavenly List."

"Yes, Young Master."

As Lawrence spoke about the Heavenly List, his expression notably turned much more serious, then he continued, "The Heavenly List is a ranking established by America to better grasp information on powerful individuals worldwide. The evaluation of the list, in addition to personal strength, places greater emphasis on combat achievements.

Because those who can make it onto this list are all equivalent to Huaya's Grandmaster Level of Great Perfection, or even half-step Martial Sovereign realm. The disparity in realm among them is already very small, unless there's someone exceptionally outstanding, like those perverts in the top ten. They've been solidly in the top ten for thirty years, and no one has ever dropped out of the top ten, and in fact, their rankings have hardly changed."

"Interesting."

Xu Hao chuckled, "Truly can't underestimate the heroes of the world, Grandmaster Level is already beyond reach in the eyes of ordinary people, yet in that circle, Grandmaster Level of Great Perfection is just entry-level! So who is ranked first now? He should be the world's most powerful person, right?" This chapter was originally posted on *.

"If no hidden expert escapes detection by the CIA, then the current number one, Child of Light Kesha, should be the world's most powerful person, followed closely by Child of Darkness Morgana, who should be the second powerful. Both of these people are revered individuals," Lawrence said.

"Child of Light? Child of Darkness? Interesting, these two people are actually called such titles." Xu Hao laughed.

Lawrence awkwardly chuckled and said, "Young Master, although you haven't made it onto the Heavenly List yet, you've entered the Assassination List, so you have a title too."

"They've given me a title? Let me hear it." Xu Hao laughed.

Miranda immediately interrupted, "I bet it's not a good title, most likely something like Murderous Maniac, after all, you did kill so many people last night."

Lawrence laughed, "Miss Miranda's guess is quite close. Young Master, your current title is 'God of Slaughter Xu Hao'!"

God of Slaughter!

"Hahaha! Divine King! Not bad! I really like this title!"

Xu Hao laughed heartily and said, "With the sword in my hand, I will cut down all enemies! So what if I become the God of Slaughter?! Hahaha, let's go!"

Xu Hao's laughter echoed throughout the entire forest, his voice carried immense energy, causing the leaves within a hundred-meter radius to tremble and fall, turning the place into a winter wonderland in an instant!

With a bewildered Miranda, he got into the car, and Xu Hao laughed, "Let's go, I want to meet Doug. I hope this kid has some guts and brings in a strong opponent for a fight!"

Xu Hao stepped on the gas, and the off-road vehicle shot forward like an arrow.

...

In the interrogation room of Doug's manor, Ge Danwei was stripped of his upper clothing and was enduring the torment of severe torture.

From being captured last night till now, he hadn't slept a bit all night, continuously tortured by several interrogators with electric shocks, pepper water, branding... they used almost every torture method they could think of on him.

They even brought his gravely ill mother to this place, forcing her to watch her son undergo such inhumane torture.

And his former playmate, who later became Doug's housemaid, Boer, had been there since last night.

Now, while eating delicious food, Boer mocked Ge Danwei, who was battered and exhausted in the distance: "Ge Danwei, how does it feel? Wasn't your master Xu Hao very impressive? Let him come and save you! You're beaten like a dog now!

Yes, it was actually my idea to bring you here. Mr. Doug didn't even know about this, but that's because he wouldn't care about a small fry like you. But I am different. Your arrogance yesterday with the backing of someone made me very displeased, so I've come for revenge, brutal revenge on you!"

Ge Danwei slowly lifted his head and sneered, "Boer, do you feel quite pleased abusing me now? But don't forget, Young Master Xu only went to Shatu State. He will return soon, and when he sees you have beaten me to this state, you will surely die!"

"Hahaha! That's hilarious. You really think Xu Hao can walk into Binei City alive? To tell you the truth, Mr. Doug already set ambushes in place last night on every route Xu Hao has to take to enter Binei City!"
