#309 - I didn't kill them, why are they all dead?
Night.
The Spirit Wood Forest was still in the early stages of development, and few people ventured out.
The surrounding protective measures were not yet complete, with only simple formations set up.
Therefore, few people casually went out at night.
After all, danger could arise at any time.
If one was at home, there was at least some support, as there were people living nearby.
So, if someone were to do something shady, they would always have some reservations.
But tonight, after dark.
Many people chose to go out.
Lü Yan was the first to go out.
Hiding in the darkness, she followed some clues from the daytime and found the leader of the Fourth Team.
The leader of the Fourth Team was a strong middle-aged man, much younger than Gu An.
About thirty years old.
He was talking to someone in the room, laughing heartily when he got excited.
"The Third Team is courting death, actually not knowing to take the initiative to strike, giving up their position. Who does he think he is?
The more he delays, the more fatal it will be for him.
Does he have hidden cultivation?
Can he be a Nascent Soul cultivator?" As he spoke, the middle-aged man laughed and released his aura, revealing himself to be in the early stage of Nascent Soul.
The people inside felt the suppression of the Nascent Soul, and their faces were a little pale, but they all complimented, "Has the leader advanced to Nascent Soul?"
"Yes, just advanced. This time, we will let them know that some things are destined to belong to someone. This time, we will make the Third Team suffer heavy casualties, making them beg us to take over."
The middle-aged man laughed heartily, "Confirm the location and find a way to send them more demon beasts tomorrow.
These are all treasures that can be sold, and they will have to thank us.
Hahaha!"
Seeing this, Lü Yan was filled with anger.
Then, with a "boom."
She broke through the door and rushed in.
The power exploded and ended quickly, without even spreading outwards.
By the time Lü Yan left, all four people inside were seriously injured.
Their storage treasures were also taken away.
That way, there would be no problems tomorrow.
Watching Lü Yan leave, Gu An, who was hiding in the dark, suddenly felt that this Senior Sister seemed a little merciful.
However, Gu An turned his gaze to the other side.
There was actually a Void Refinement cultivator there.
This shocked him.
The other party seemed to be on the verge of breaking through to the middle stage, and he didn't know how much chance he had against them.
He just wasn't sure what the other party was going to do.
After Lü Yan left, the other party appeared in the room.
Gu An saw clearly that the other party raised their sword and struck.
All four people died.
After that, the other party left.
They did not go back, but went to the Fifth Team, the Seventh Team, the Ninth Team, and the Eleventh Team.
If there were people in the team leader's room, she would take care of them along the way.
If there was no one else, she would only kill the leader.
Not even giving them any chance to speak.
Gu An silently calculated that they were all the people he was looking for.
However, the other party took all the storage treasures.
Which he found quite regrettable.
After killing the leader of the Eleventh Team.
The other party went to the First Team.
Which was the Senior Sister from the daytime.
The other party also lived in an ordinary house, preparing petals, wanting to take a bath.
Creak!
The door was opened.
A middle-aged beautiful woman walked in.
The Void Refinement aura around her constantly emanated.
Seeing the person, this Senior Sister looked at the other party and smiled like a flower, "You're back?"
The other party just nodded slightly, then closed the door.
"How did things go?" The woman lowered her head and continued to arrange her roses.
"Why does Miss Cheng want to do this?" The Void Refinement beauty asked.
Immortal Maiden Cheng looked at the other party, slightly surprised, "What did I do? I just asked you to kill some people, that's all, it's not like it's anything.
We are the Demonic Sect, and the Demonic Sect naturally has to act like the Demonic Sect.
This is just a frontier land, not the sect.
Which means the Hall of Law Enforcement doesn't care about this place.
Since they don't care, as a Demonic Sect妖女, shouldn't I do something befitting my status?"
"But their methods were given by Miss Cheng, and now you are the one killing them, isn't that a bit too much?
Besides, what's the use of killing them?" The Void Refinement beauty asked.
"If I didn't give them the methods, how could I set the stage to perform the drama I want to see? As for what use it has?"
Immortal Maiden Cheng smiled slightly, "Naturally, to put some pressure on the Third Team. Everyone more or less knows that the person in the Third Team is a reckless person, and usually doesn't let a night pass before killing someone.
So many people suddenly died, and then say that these people seemed to want to exchange with the Third Team, but they didn't expect to be killed.
Don't you think it's quite reasonable?
When the person in charge doesn't want things to expand, he will definitely find a way.
Then, the Third Team will most likely be mine."
"You want to use a knife to get the person in charge to kill the Third Team leader?" The Void Refinement beauty asked.
Hearing this, Immortal Maiden Cheng smiled charmingly:
"It's obvious you don't understand this Junior Brother Gu. How dare the person in charge kill him?
Even I don't dare to mess around.
He's on the Merit List.
Moreover, he has killed people in the sect several times, and he can be safe and sound.
Even if he didn't have anyone behind him at first, he must have someone paying attention to him now.
Killing him is very dangerous."
"Then wasn't what you said to him during the day deliberately offending him?" The Void Refinement beauty frowned and asked.
Putting down the petals in her hand, Immortal Maiden Cheng smiled and said, "Yes, I was deliberately provoking him. I'm quite curious whether someone as impulsive as him is really in the late stage of the Golden Core, and whether he will really be so impulsive.
Logically speaking, his experiences, coupled with what I said, would definitely make him angry.
So I'm waiting for him to come to me, or I also want to see if there is anyone following him, clearing obstacles for him."
"Did you find anything?" The Void Refinement beauty asked.
"No, maybe he can endure it. The rumored recklessness is all fake," Immortal Maiden Cheng said calmly, "But no matter what, someone will always attack him.
We just have to watch, and occasionally stimulate him.
"Do you have a grudge against him?" The Void Refinement beauty asked.
Immortal Maiden Cheng shrugged and said, "No."
The Void Refinement beauty asked in surprise, "Then why do you want to stimulate him? If your plan succeeds, he will be the target of public criticism tomorrow. Logically speaking, your goal has been achieved.
Why still provoke trouble?"
"Isn't it fun?" Immortal Maiden Cheng said with a smile, "Stimulate him, see him angry, but helpless. No matter how high his merits are, he can't kill enemies beyond his level.
Killing him is naturally troublesome, but just stimulating him, humiliating him, the Merit Hall will neither care nor say anything. As for the person behind him, they will care even less.
If such a small thing requires the person behind him to act, then he has no value. If there really is someone behind him, then it's just right to help the other party test his character. They might even thank us. As for the uncomfortable person, it's not me anyway, I'm happy.
The task is so boring, it's okay for me to find some fun for myself, right?"
The Void Refinement beauty looked at the person in front of her and reminded, "I'm just in the early stage of Void Refinement. The person who truly protects you hasn't come yet. They will arrive one after another soon, so for the sake of safety, I hope you can restrain yourself a little.
You have to understand that you have a mission.
If the mission fails, that thing will no longer be suppressed, and neither you nor I will survive.
Just bear with it, the person is coming soon."
Hearing this, Immortal Maiden Cheng raised her eyebrows slightly and smiled, "Is there anyone here who can kill me?
Besides, I'm just playing around. Those people you killed, go ask them if they blame me."
As for that Gu An, I'll take you over there to slap him, and you think he wouldn't say he was honored?
It's so late, and no one's come over. I really overestimated him.
I'll slap him tomorrow and see where his bottom line is."
As soon as he finished speaking, a creaking sound suddenly rang out.
The door was pushed open just like that.
This sudden change shocked both of them.
Fairy Cheng turned her head to look at the Void Return beauty.
The other party didn't dare to hesitate and struck the door with a palm.
Although she didn't know how the other party had avoided her perception, this palm would let the surrounding people know what was happening.
It would also give them a chance.
Boom!
A huge force, like a storm, shattered the door of the house, and the entire room was blown open.
At this moment, they discovered a man wearing the uniform of the Azure Wood Sect, standing right at the doorway.
Behind him, moonlight slowly poured down.
If one looked up, they would find that the sun and moon pierced the sky, but the moonlight overshadowed the sunlight.
But they didn't look up, and even if they did, they might not know what it meant.
"Who is it?" The Void Return beauty stood in front of Fairy Cheng, looking at Gu An with a wary expression.
The aftermath of the power dissipated, and the appearance of the man at the doorway slowly came into view.
The moment she saw the person, Fairy Cheng's pupils shrank.
She never expected it would be this person.
At this moment, Gu An retracted his fist and looked at Fairy Cheng behind the beauty, opening his mouth coldly and calmly:
"Didn't Senior Sister want to slap me?
I'm here. Do you want to try?"
"Void Return?" Fairy Cheng was a little shocked, then she laughed: "So you were hiding your cultivation. No wonder you dared to kill people so unscrupulously.
But don't you think you shouldn't have come to us openly?
You're in the early stage of Void Return, and my people are also in the early stage of Void Return. Do you think you can kill us?
In that case, you're quite conceited. Do you think you can keep us here?
Even if you can, can you prevent others from spying?
If the commotion here gets too big, they'll find out."
"They won't find out," This time, it was the Void Return beauty who spoke.
Hearing this, Fairy Cheng was a little puzzled.
The beautiful fairy pointed to the heavens: "The sun and moon are in the same sky. This isn't an ordinary sky. We're trapped. The other party came prepared, and I didn't even notice. I'm afraid things are not looking good."
"Does he dare to kill me?" Fairy Cheng sneered.
But in the next instant, she suddenly felt a light.
In an instant, Gu An arrived in front of her.
Just as she was about to speak, Gu An raised his hand to strike down.
The beauty subconsciously wanted to block it.
But Gu An's hand didn't come down. Instead, he kicked out.
With a "bang," Fairy Cheng was sent flying upside down.
A cracking sound came from her waist.
Something broke.
Boom!
She crashed into the wall.
She looked at Gu An with resentment in her eyes.
"I suddenly realized that hitting Senior Sister would dirty my hands a bit," Gu An said calmly.
"Kill him!" Miss Cheng, who had struggled to get up from the ground, roared angrily.
The Void Return beauty had already gathered all her strength and attacked Gu An.
She wanted to catch him off guard.
Her five fingers were together, and five streams of power manifested at her fingertips.
In the next instant, a large hand roared through the void.
It didn't give people a chance to breathe at all.
This huge palm was much stronger than before.
Clang!
Gu An didn't dare to be careless and drew Zhu Ri.
He lowered his eyes and drew his saber.
For a moment, a feeling of sadness appeared in the beauty's perception.
She immediately realized that something was wrong and strengthened her mind.
But in the next instant, the saber light appeared, without bringing any vast power.
Whoosh!
Boom!
The huge palm shattered, and the beauty's arm that had struck out was directly cut off.
Fresh blood spurted out.
She gritted her teeth and retreated a few steps. A ring appeared, guarding her front.
The power around her manifested, protecting her surroundings.
Then, nine spiritual swords appeared, whistling away.
And the moment the spiritual swords appeared, Gu An had already attacked.
He held Zhu Ri and drew his saber extremely quickly.
Clang!
Clang!
His figure appeared like a ghost, flashing continuously. After passing through the nine spiritual swords, he stabbed the ring with his saber.
Gang Qi erupted.
Crack!
Bang!
The ring shattered.
The saber went straight in.
Pfft!
Zhu Ri pierced through the beauty's body.
At this moment, Gu An's hand pinched the other party's neck.
He directly lifted the person up.
The beauty looked at the person in front of her in shock. At this moment, the nine spiritual swords behind her fell to the ground and shattered.
"You..." The beauty said with difficulty: "You can't kill her."
Gu An nodded slightly and said: "Yes, I heard you."
The other party was a little surprised and wanted to ask if it was true.
But Gu An's hand exerted a little force.
Pfft!
The Qi Sea Heavenly Gang mixed with Xuan Huang Qi directly crushed the beauty's internal organs.
The power was disintegrated, and the Yuan Shen shattered.
He wasn't some heinous villain, so he wouldn't torture the other party.
He agreed with the other party's point of view, and then killed the person.
He thought she could rest in peace.
With that, Gu An turned his head to look at Fairy Cheng, who was crawling out.
Then, he took a step and landed in front of the other party, stepping down with his foot.
He directly stepped the person into the ground.
"You, you can't kill me. I am...
Bang!
Gu An directly finished off the other party.
The other party was terrified, but until death, she didn't understand that she would really die.
Gu An retracted his foot. He didn't care who the other party was.
Since he had already made a move, he couldn't stop.
Perhaps the other party had a great background, but...
This wasn't the sect, and the people from the Law Enforcement Hall wouldn't investigate.
He didn't need to worry too much.
After collecting the storage treasures, Gu An disappeared from the spot.
Just as he returned to his residence, the reclaimed land rang with the sound of the bell.
It meant that something had happened, and everyone had to gather.
Gu An knew that the deaths of those people would definitely cause a sensation.
Lu Yan was a little worried. She had only taught a few people a lesson. Had it caused such a big commotion?
But soon she was stunned. The people from the fourth team were dead.
She remembered that she hadn't killed anyone, but soon, she was shocked to find that not only the fourth team had died.
The fifth team, the seventh team, the ninth team, the eleventh team, and another team. All of these leaders were dead.
What shocked her even more was that there was actually a Void Return in one team, and the Void Return had also died.
In an instant, she broke out in a cold sweat.
She had calculated the time. That meant that after she had just taught the people a lesson, the other party went in to kill people.
And the other party was most likely watching her teach the people a lesson.
Who was it?
Not only did she want to know, but the person in charge also wanted to know.
At first, he was extremely angry and instantly thought of various people.
He planned to give these people some lessons.
But when he saw the Void Return, he calmed down.
And dismissed the people.
Gu An originally wanted to go back.
On the way, he saw the undercover agents who were originally passing on the location to him.
The corners of their mouths were smiling coldly, thinking that these people were simply trash and had been killed just like that.
Gu An looked at their slightly disdainful faces and finally disappeared into the night.
The next day, five more bodies were found in the back mountain.
