Bai Long's Head Has Arrived!

At the Emperor's Grand Hotel in Yunhai County.

Lanterns and colorful decorations filled the place with festive cheer.

Today was the fiftieth birthday of Wang Biao, the underground boss of Yunhai County.

The entire hotel had been booked for the occasion.

Wealthy and powerful figures came and went, all here to offer Wang Biao their birthday wishes.

In the banquet hall, Wang Biao sat in the seat of honor.

He nodded and smiled constantly at the people who came to congratulate him and present expensive gifts.

"Brother Biao, Xiaogou of Qingshui Town has come to wish you a happy birthday."

"May your blessings be as boundless as the East Sea, and may you live as long as the Southern Mountains!"

At that moment, a defiant-looking man strode in.

After presenting his gift, he knelt on one knee before Wang Biao and offered his congratulations.

"Liu Fulai of Yongshan Town wishes Brother Biao everlasting rule over Yunhai and a life of a hundred years!"

Another fierce-looking man walked in.

He, too, knelt on one knee before Wang Biao.

"Dong Shenghai of Guangming Town..."

"Liu Yidao of Fuyuan Town..."

As one congratulatory greeting after another rang out,

In the blink of an eye, eight men were kneeling on one knee before Wang Biao.

Every one of them looked defiant and fierce.

One glance was enough to tell that none of them were to be trifled with.

Everyone already seated felt their hearts tighten.

"The Nine Lords of Yunhai!"

The Nine Lords of Yunhai were the underground bosses of Yunhai County's nine towns.

All nine were ruthless and vicious, wild and untamable.

Each had over a hundred lackeys under him.

They ruled their own territories and held people's lives in their hands.

Their power reached the heavens, and no one dared provoke them.

They were Wang Biao's trusted subordinates in his rule over Yunhai County's underground world.

Though everyone present was a prominent figure in Yunhai County,

They were still deeply wary of these fierce, lordlike figures who each held sway over a town.

"Hahaha, get up, all of you!"

"Take your seats over there!"

Overjoyed, Wang Biao spoke in a booming voice.

"Thank you, Brother Biao!"

Liu Yidao and the others answered in unison.

Only then did they rise and take their seats, exchanging greetings with one another.

"Hm?"

"Bai Long didn't come?"

Suddenly, Wang Biao frowned, displeasure appearing on his face.

Only then did he notice that just eight of the Nine Lords of Yunhai had come.

Bai Long of Guyang Town still hadn't arrived.

Hmph, he's getting more and more disrespectful!

Wang Biao couldn't help letting out a cold snort inwardly, deeply dissatisfied.

"Qi Ping of the Yunhai County Public Security Action Brigade wishes Brother Biao health and peace!"

Suddenly, a resonant voice rang out from the entrance.

Wang Biao looked up and saw three men in uniform striding in.

The man in front was in his early forties, full of vigor, and commanding without anger.

The two behind him were also full of energy, with proud expressions on their faces.

One look was enough to tell they were men of distinguished standing.

"Oh, Captain Qi and the two deputy captains have graced us with their presence."

"I am deeply honored!"

Smiling broadly, Wang Biao hurried to his feet and went to greet them personally.

Although he was the underground boss of Yunhai County, Qi Ping was in charge of public security across the county.

To put it bluntly, keeping him in line was precisely Qi Ping's job.

Even if he didn't take Qi Ping seriously in the slightest, he still had to give Qi Ping plenty of face in public.

Otherwise, if Qi Ping really decided to make trouble for him, he wouldn't have an easy time of it either.

Besides, Qi Ping had brought his two deputies to offer birthday wishes in person today.

That was giving Wang Biao plenty of face.

After exchanging pleasantries with Wang Biao, Qi Ping took his seat with his two deputies.

At this point, everyone who was coming had arrived.

Except Bai Long!

Wang Biao's brows drew tightly together, and anger flashed in his eyes.

It was Wang Biao's birthday, and Bai Long dared to be late!

Had being the boss of Guyang Town made him stupid?

This was outrageous!

"Liu Yidao, call Bai Long!"

"Ask him why he still hasn't arrived!"

Suppressing his anger, Wang Biao gave the order to Liu Yidao of Fuyuan Town.

Liu Yidao acknowledged the order and hurried to call Bai Long.

But before he could place the call, a cold voice, seemingly from hell itself, rang out.

"Bai Long can't come!"

"But Bai Long's head has arrived!"

Whoosh!

The moment the words fell, a dark object came hurtling toward Wang Biao.
