#290 - You killed the person?
#290 - You killed the person?
Inside the prison cell.
Gu An originally wanted to continue asking questions.
Although the person in front of him was extremely weak, the necessary procedures still had to be followed.
After all, he was here to complete a task.
As the person involved, the necessary inquiries were indispensable.
Otherwise, he would have no idea how to investigate further.
Without investigating anything, it would be difficult to coordinate.
Only by clarifying the general issues and determining responsibility could the problem be better coordinated.
And finally, to restore everything to normal.
At least, Cangmu Sect's responsibilities had to be shouldered.
If they continued to delay, it would be their problem.
Cangmu Sect was weak, and suffering losses was inevitable.
But what needed to be done was to ensure that the loss was bearable.
If the problem was too big, Cangmu Sect wouldn't want to suffer in vain.
So, in the end, they would definitely punish him for his incompetence.
However, before he could ask more questions, he was locked onto by a powerful force.
They treated him like someone trying to break into the prison.
The accusation was naturally false.
Giving him a show of force was the real intention.
The power came quickly and was very profound.
A complete Yuan Shen stage.
Only a step away from returning to the Void stage.
Strong.
Too strong.
In an instant, the power suppressed the surroundings, making everyone unable to breathe.
Faced with such an attack, Gu An narrowed his eyes slightly.
If he hadn't brought Zhang San, it would have been truly difficult to move an inch.
"Thief, today you may have come with your life, but you won't be going back with it!" At this moment, a bald figure appeared, and the earth shook with each step he took.
The power of a complete Yuan Shen stage overwhelmed everything.
In an instant, he arrived in front of Gu An, ready to grab Gu An's neck with one hand.
However, at the moment he reached out.
Another hand suddenly appeared.
Approaching his neck.
Then, with a slight grip.
Crack!
Bang!
The power belonging to the complete Yuan Shen stage shattered on the spot like a mirror.
Then, before the bald man could react, a hand grabbed his neck.
The huge impact stunned him.
Subsequently, a feeling of weightlessness instantly appeared.
An inexplicable suffocation confused him.
The unbearable force transmitted from his neck filled him with terror.
The feeling of death was close at hand.
Just like that, the once arrogant bald man was grabbed and lifted up like a chick.
Gu An looked at the other party and said expressionlessly, "Is this someone breaking into the prison?"
"I don't know, I guess so," Zhang San replied indifferently.
"Then kill him?" Gu An asked.
Hearing this, the bald man was terrified, especially when he felt the other party beginning to exert force.
It seemed they really intended to kill him.
The desire to survive made him grit his teeth and say, "Mis, misunderstanding, I, I am the person in charge here, Fellow Daoist, you've misunderstood, I am willing to apologize."
Hearing this, Gu An looked at the other party and said, "So it was a misunderstanding."
"Yes, yes, a misunderstanding," the bald man immediately said.
However, Gu An looked at the other party and remained silent.
Zhang San also didn't move.
After sensing the other party's attitude, the bald man took off his storage treasure and handed it over.
Chen Changfeng pointed to the ground.
The bald man tactfully dropped the item on the ground.
Only then did Chen Changfeng pick up the storage treasure and say, "This was picked up by Yi, it doesn't belong to this Fellow Daoist, right?"
"No, it's not mine," the bald man shook his head, his face flushed from being choked.
"Then it belongs to our Dean," Chen Changfeng handed the item to Gu An: "Dean, you've dropped something again, you must keep it safe."
Gu An looked at the other party in silence.
He suddenly thought of what Chu Meng had said.
Some people just want to improve too much.
Gu An took the storage treasure, took three thousand spirit stones, and then threw the storage treasure back to the other party.
He wasn't a bad person, and there was no need to offend people to the death.
Taking everything would easily lead to desperate measures.
But taking nothing might not make the other party remember.
However, three thousand, one thousand to Zhang San, and one thousand to Chen Changfeng.
Although the price had already been agreed upon, it was still necessary to give what was due to them in order to get them to work better.
After all, the spirit stones were picked up by their strength.
Being able to get a thousand spirit stones was already considered a profit.
As for offending these people.
Even if he came alone, he would have to offend them.
There was no difference.
There was no need to take all the benefits for himself.
After Zhang San put the person down, Gu An looked at the other party and said, "Since it's a misunderstanding, can I continue to ask questions?"
"Of, of course you can," the bald man, feeling alive again, immediately said.
He was somewhat angry in his heart, why didn't anyone say that this Golden Core cultivator had a Returning Void expert by his side?
Knowing that there was a Returning Void expert present, he wouldn't dare to be so presumptuous even if he had a hundred guts.
He wouldn't even dare to make things difficult.
Losing three thousand spirit stones at once made him extremely angry.
But he didn't dare to show it.
He just couldn't understand why a Returning Void would be beside a mid-stage Golden Core cultivator, and still look like he was taking orders.
Gu An then focused his gaze on Tie Mudao and said, "When did you discover that the item was missing?"
Because of the power disturbance just now, Tie Mudao had become much more awake.
He looked at Gu An with difficulty and said intermittently, "I, I was going to seal it, for safety, I checked them one by one.
When checking the guqin, I found that the item was missing.
They said that I stole it."
"The treasure was unguarded?" Gu An asked.
"Yes, someone was guarding it," Tie Mudao replied.
"Who was guarding it?" Gu An asked.
"I, I don't know," Tie Mudao shook his head.
He was just a person who did his job seriously and didn't know anything about the surroundings.
Gu An turned to look at the bald man and said calmly:
"Senior, the treasure was guarded, right?"
"Yes, it was, but the person guarding it didn't take it, so naturally the person who entered is the most suspicious," the bald man said.
"Then how did Senior determine that they didn't take it?" Gu An asked again.
"They are all disciples of the Immortal Sect, their character is upright and known to everyone, and they have directly stated that they did not steal it.
Naturally, it wasn't them who took it, and only those people from Cangmu Sect are from impoverished places, looking like poor wretches,
And they are also disciples of the Demonic Sect.
If it wasn't them who took it, then who else could it be?
Moreover, only one person entered that place, and that was Tie Mudao.
Besides him, there are no other suspects," the bald man said solemnly.
Listening to the other party's words, Gu An's eyes didn't change in the slightest, he only said, "Senior is serious?"
The other party looked at Zhang San warily, and then replied, "Could it be that I should believe a Demonic Sect disciple?"
"That's also true," Gu An nodded slightly and said, "How could there be good people in the Demonic Sect."
Hearing this, the bald man breathed a sigh of relief.
In this way, Gu An didn't say anything else, but said:
"Who is guarding it, call them over."
"Fellow Daoist is looking for them to do..." Before the other party could finish speaking, Chen Changfeng interrupted, "Is it your turn to question us? Either kneel down and execute the order, or go and execute it now, you just need to listen to and execute what our Dean says.
Don't ask what you shouldn't ask."
A hint of ruthlessness flashed in the bald man's eyes at being interrupted, but he still suppressed it.
He looked at Gu An and said, "They don't belong to our Tianfeng Palace, I really can't find them."
"Can't find them?" Gu An asked, looking at the other party.
"Yes, Fellow Daoist can go to their sect to ask for people," the bald man replied.
Gu An nodded slightly, "Then I won't trouble you, Senior."
Then he looked at Tiemu Dao and said, "I need to take him back for interrogation. I wonder if Senior would agree to that?"
"I can't make a decision on this either." The bald man looked at Gu An and said, "He was captured jointly by the royal family and the immortal sects, and they unanimously consider him a suspect.
I can't explain if you take him away, Fellow Daoist."
"Take him away then." Gu An said.
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhang San shattered the prison cell with a palm strike.
The bald man didn't dare to stop him, but still said:
"I will truthfully inform the others, the royal family, Tianyang Sect, and other sects. I hope Fellow Daoist can give them an explanation when the time comes."
Gu An ignored him and strode away.
Zhang San took Tiemu Dao and followed him.
Chen Changfeng looked at the bald man, not knowing what he was thinking, and finally followed them away.
As soon as they left, a murderous intent appeared in the bald man's eyes.
Anger was evident on his face.
"I must kill him."
Saying that, he quickly left.
He was going to inform the others about everything here.
In addition, he didn't plan to wait any longer. He was going to join forces with some people tonight to kill this Golden Core cultivator.
He wanted to see if a Void Refinement cultivator could protect this Golden Core cultivator.
Did he really think that one Void Refinement cultivator could dominate everything here?
Wishful thinking.
Demonic sect fiends, everyone has the right to kill them.
"I'll let you live for a few more hours."
Back at his residence, Gu An handed Tiemu Dao over to the three people from Cangmu Sect.
He told them to keep an eye on him for now.
He would continue the interrogation when he felt better.
After that, he returned to his room.
"Dean, you might be in danger," Zhang San said.
Chen Changfeng also said, "That bald man doesn't look like a good person. He might take action against you, Dean."
"Yeah, otherwise, why would I look for you?" Gu An said calmly, "However, they shouldn't do anything these next two days, so take the opportunity to do some more things.
Do you know who the guard is?"
"I know." Chen Changfeng nodded, "What are you planning to do, Dean?"
"After midnight tonight, go and bring that person over." Gu An said.
"Okay." Chen Changfeng paused and then said, "Do you want me to stay and protect you, Dean?"
Gu An shook his head, "No need. They are all people from the immortal sects, they won't be so reckless. If they want to take action against me, they will find a good opportunity.
Moreover, they don't know that you will be out late at night.
They will definitely plan everything before taking action.
If it's tonight, they are too rushed to prepare, so they won't take action directly."
Hearing this, Zhang San and Chen Changfeng nodded.
They felt that it was indeed the case.
They couldn't possibly take action that night.
However, if it wasn't possible tonight, the possibility would be higher tomorrow night.
They still had to act cautiously.
Zhang San also felt that this mission was a bit tricky.
As expected, it wasn't as simple as he thought to regain his freedom.
Especially since he had come and immediately clashed with the people from the immortal sects.
Was the Dean being reckless? If he didn't do this, it would be impossible to move forward.
Those people were deliberately making things difficult.
If he didn't take action, he would be restricted everywhere. Offending them was the best option.
If he had enough strength, he should have killed that bald man today.
Unfortunately, one move would affect the whole situation. Killing him on the spot would cause many problems.
Zhang San sighed.
He could only take it one step at a time.
It would be much easier if he could bring out two Void Refinement cultivators.
It would be best to bring the strongest Void Refinement late-stage cultivator.
That would be enough to crush everyone here.
That night.
After Chen Changfeng and the others left, Gu An slowly got up and decided to go out for a walk.
In addition, the Ring of Destiny gave him feedback at this time.
[Yesterday morning, Hua Yu was humiliated by you and has already harbored hatred in his heart. He vowed that you would die tonight, that you would be tortured beyond recognition, and that you would understand that a small Golden Core cultivator who is too conspicuous must pay the price with his life.
At night, he found Fan He and Ruoxin and discussed in the room how to lure away the Void Refinement cultivator. As soon as the Void Refinement cultivator left, they would directly cut off your limbs, and then take you away to interrogate you for the Nirvana Dao Scripture.
Give you hope, and when everything is revealed, let you despair, and finally kill you.
During the discussion, Hua Yu slammed the table and angrily scolded you, saying that you were just an old guy, and that you really thought you were someone remarkable.
You're just a dog relying on his master's power.
Once the details of the discussion are completed, it will be your death date.]
Looking at the feedback from the Ring of Destiny, Gu An was slightly surprised.
He originally intended to only find one person, but he didn't expect there to be three people involved.
Forget it, in order to make this mission of his go smoothly, he should try to awaken the conscience of those people.
He hoped that they would have a change of heart and stop making things difficult for him.
After that, Gu An transformed into a ray of light and disappeared from the spot.
For safety's sake, he needed to see what kind of cultivation that Ruoxin, whom he had never met, had.
If she was a Void Refinement cultivator, then it would be troublesome.
Perhaps he would still need to defeat them one by one.
Although he had been a bit inflated recently, he still needed to be cautious when it came to his own safety.
On the other side.
The bald man was discussing with two people.
"Then Senior Sister Ruo will be responsible for luring away the Void Refinement cultivator, and we will be responsible for going in to capture the person.
When the Dao Scripture is in hand, we will give it to Senior Sister Ruo first.
This trash Golden Core cultivator is only relying on having a Void Refinement cultivator by his side. If he didn't, he wouldn't dare to say a word if he stood in front of me.
He would only be fit to kneel down and beg for mercy.
If he had the ability, would he dare to come out and fight me one-on-one?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the bald man suddenly heard a voice in his ear: "One-on-one? Is it like this one-on-one?"
Hearing this, the bald man's pupils shrank, and he was about to pull away.
However, a hand grabbed his shoulder, and then with a pfft sound.
Black Abyss pierced through the bald man's body from behind. The black knife went in and the red knife came out.
In an instant, the gang energy in the knife swept through his body, and his internal organs instantly disintegrated.
Endless fear made him want to beg for mercy.
However, Gu An put his hand on his head.
Then, he squeezed.
The bald man saw Gu An's cold face behind him: "It seems that Senior lost one-on-one."
At this time, the bald man's eyes were filled with horror. He didn't understand how he was killed by the other party until his death.
This sudden change shocked the two people beside him.
How did the other party appear?
And how did he kill Hua Yu so easily?
Fan He and the others began to flee without saying a word.
For a moment, they all regretted that they shouldn't have come tonight.
However, before they could leave the room, they suddenly felt a sense of sadness.
Then, they saw a knife slashing over from nowhere.
The original escapees seemed to see half of their bodies staying behind.
Then, with a bang.
The two fell to the ground.
They lost consciousness.
Midnight.
Gu An was sitting in his room reading a book, reading the Three Styles of Pingqiu.
Suddenly, the door was pushed open.
Zhang San and Chen Changfeng came back.
"Dean, something bad has happened. That bald man from the daytime is dead," Chen Changfeng said immediately.
Hearing this, Gu An pretended to be surprised, and then looked at Zhang San: "Did you kill him?"
It's the beginning of the month, are there any monthly tickets?
Thank you very much!
