C3459 Assassination!
C3459 Assassination!
At the entrance of the Alchemist Association, Mu Qian Shan's feeble voice could be heard.
"Little Fatty, what's wrong with you?" Qing Mu Zi walked out and saw Mu Qian Shan, who was covered in dirt and bruises. Her eyes were filled with astonishment.
At this time, Gu Huang also walked out and saw Mu Qian Shan's appearance, "Fatty, who did this?"
"Boss Gu, you must avenge me! That Nie Qing Long is too much, too much!" When Mu Qian Shan saw Gu Huang, it was as if he had seen his savior. His face was filled with grievance.
"Nie Qing Long, it's actually him. What exactly happened?" Gu Huang's eyes flickered with coldness. This Nie Qing Long's guts were really not small. Did he not know the relationship between him and his uncle?
"Boss, have you forgotten? Today is the day of the new disciple assessment. Originally, it was a competition between our fellow disciples. However, Nie Qing Long's mentor, Yu Shao Yuan, humiliated our C class disciples as trash, trash. In the end, Instructor Luo could not hold back and asked us to compete. In the end, Nie Qing Long went on stage and we were no match for him. We were all defeated. He even said..."
Mu Qian Shan lowered his head, not daring to look straight into Gu Huang's eyes, nor did he dare to say Nie Qing Long's words out loud.
"What else?" Gu Huang stood with his hands behind his back, his gaze becoming increasingly cold. This Nie Qing Long was clearly trying to take revenge. How could he endure this?
"Boss, that Nie Qinglong even said that you are a coward. Today, I won't count your luck. In the future, I'll beat you ten times every time I see you."
Mu Qian Shan said all of this in one breath. He was so angry that he grimaced.
"Heh! See me once, and I'll beat you ten times every time! Good, good, good, fatty, let's go to the academy." Gu Huang's expression was still calm, but his heart was already extremely angry. He hadn't gone to the academy for three days, and such a thing had happened. Nie Qinglong, you want to play? I'll play with you until the end.
"Little friend, wait a moment. Don't you feel that there is something strange about this matter?" Qing Mu Zi stopped the furious Gu Huang.
"Strange, there is something strange." Gu Huang was a little confused. He had already formed enmity with Nie Qinglong. It was normal for him to take the opportunity to take revenge. There was nothing strange about it.
"Little friend, I've been in Thunder City for more than a hundred years. I've also gone to the new disciple assessment. It's always the same class against the same class. There has never been an A-grade class that took the initiative to find trouble with the C-grade class. Since Nie Qinglong took the initiative, I'm afraid someone is instigating him. I'll go with you personally."
Qing Mu Zi had lived for a few hundred years. She was already an old fox. The seemingly ordinary competition was probably the real goal of Gu Huang.
"There's no need, Senior. It's just a mere Nie Qinglong. How can he overturn the heavens? It's just some small tricks that can't be put on the stage. Fatty, let's go."
Gu Huang was not afraid in his heart. He wanted to see what tricks Nie Qinglong and the others were playing.
"No matter what, be careful." Qing Mu Zi was still a little worried. After all, it was not the first time someone wanted to harm Gu Huang. From the Xuan Yang Sect to the Thunder Academy, Gu Huang had suffered a lot.
"Don't worry, I have my own plan." After Gu Huang finished speaking, he took Fatty with him.
When Gu Huang and Mu Qian Shan left the Alchemist Guild, two figures appeared in the alley opposite them. They were Ling Ren and Hong Ning. Looking at Gu Huang's figure, they were filled with hatred, especially Ling Ren. He just wanted to rush out and kill Gu Huang.
"Senior Brother, calm down. If you attack again, not only will you not be able to kill him, you will also put us in danger."
Hong Ning grabbed Ling Ren's arm and shook her head lightly, indicating that he should not be impulsive.
"Junior Sister Hong Ning, the hatred for killing my master is irreconcilable. Don't worry! I won't be so impulsive. I just can't help but want to kill him with my own hands." Ling Ren forcefully suppressed the killing intent in his heart, looked at Gu Huang's back, and said.
"Senior Brother, the Blood God Hall's assassination is renowned throughout the world. Even if Gu Huang has great abilities, he won't be able to escape. When the Alchemist Guild investigates this matter, there will be Wang Jian to be the scapegoat. So you must hold back now."
Hong Ning's gaze was filled with killing intent, and her voice was even colder.
"Junior Sister, let's follow him. I want to see that bastard die with my own eyes." Ling Ren's gaze was terrifyingly gloomy, like a poisonous snake, making people shudder.
"No, Senior Brother, you must not do that. Don't you know the methods of the Blood God Hall? There are no survivors within a hundred zhang radius. Furthermore, we have spent a lot of effort to design Gu Huang. We can't afford to make any mistakes at this critical moment. If we are discovered, we won't be able to escape."
Hong Ning's eyes flickered with an incomparably cold light. He had exhausted all his efforts to design Gu Huang. He had investigated Gu Huang's past thoroughly. It was not easy to find out that Nie Qinglong had a grudge with Gu Huang, and it was an excuse to avoid it perfectly.
"Alright, Junior Sister. I will listen to you. Let's return to the academy." Ling Ren closed his eyes and suppressed the anger in his heart.
Hong Chen nodded and took out a talisman. The two of them turned into shadows and disappeared in an instant.
Gu Huang and Fatty walked side by side. On the way, they treated Fatty's injuries. Nie Qinglong did not kill him on purpose. His purpose was to provoke Fatty, and it was obvious that he had achieved his goal.
However, when Gu Huang turned around and walked to another street, he suddenly realized that something was amiss. This street was the closest route to the academy, and it was also a must-avoid route. This street was usually very lively, but it was extremely deserted at this moment. Even the pedestrians were absent. Although the shops on both sides were open, there was no sound of human activity.
"Boss, why aren't we leaving?" Mu Qianshan did not notice anything amiss. Instead, he urged Gu Huang to leave quickly.
"Fatty, there is no one on this street. Don't you find it strange?" Gu Huang's divine sense surged out like a tide, enveloping the entire street. Other than no one, there was nothing wrong.
"Boss, have you forgotten? Today is the day of the Thunder Ancient King's death! At least half of the people in the city have left the city to pay their respects." Mu Qianshan looked at Gu Huang in puzzlement. He suddenly remembered that Gu Huang was not from the Thunder City, so he naturally did not know.
"So that's how it is." Gu Huang frowned. Although Fatty said so, he did not give up his vigilance. He felt that a crisis was about to descend.
"That's right! Let's go!" Fatty strode forward.
When Gu Huang lifted his foot, his pupils contracted. A golden divine light flashed, and with a furious roar, he shouted, "Fatty, dodge!"
With that, Gu Huang took a step forward. The golden light in his palm was suffused with a terrifying suction force, sucking Mu Qianshan ten meters away. At this moment, the void in front of him trembled, and four daggers shining with blue light stabbed towards Gu Huang's body.
The golden light around Gu Huang's body was suffused with a golden light, but the daggers easily tore through the battle qi defense and stabbed into Gu Huang's vital points. Gu Huang felt a sharp pain all over his body, and waves of numbness spread out. It was obvious that the daggers had been smeared with poison.
"Boss." Mu Qianshan finally reacted and let out a furious roar. His figure rushed towards Gu Huang.
"Fatty, let's go. Don't worry about me." Gu Huang roared like a Leviathan.
"Die."
In the void, a cold voice came. A dagger appeared behind Mu Qian Shan. Gu Huang's pupils contracted violently, and the blood in his body seemed to be burning like a flame.
His figure disappeared from where he stood and appeared behind Fatty. At this time, the dagger had pierced deeply into Gu Huang's chest.
"Puff!"
"Void Collapsing Fist."
Gu Huang spat out a mouthful of blood. He endured the pain in his body and the blood energy around his body erupted like a surging river. With a punch, the space trembled and enveloped a radius of fifteen feet. Dust and dust rolled in all directions, and rocks danced, forming an incomparably terrifying air wave.
"Puff!"
Another mouthful of blood was spat out. Gu Huang's lips and face turned purple and blue, as if he was a terrifying ghost.
"Boss, how are you? Don't scare me." Mu Qian Shan's expression was filled with shock. This sudden attack had completely stunned him.
"Let's go." Gu Huang grabbed Fatty's shoulder and forcefully ignited his bloodline. The surrounding void was filled with ripples, and his figure disappeared from where he stood.
"Leader, the target has escaped. Should we chase?"
The surrounding void distorted, and four masked assassins in blood-red clothes appeared. Their sinister eyes were like poisonous snakes.
"No need. Keep an eye on him and wait for the right time."
The leader of the assassins in blood-red clothes looked at the place where Gu Huang disappeared. His eyes flickered with a cold light. A dagger that was covered with countless strange runes appeared in his palm. It lightly cut through the air, and the surrounding space distorted. The four people disappeared as if they had never appeared.
"Bam!"
In the Windy Snowy Moon Restaurant, Gu Huang and Mu Qian Shan's figures fell to the ground. Gu Huang's body was covered in blood, and his face was purple. There was black blood at the corner of his mouth, and his spirit had shrunk to the extreme.
"Boss, Boss Gu, how are you? Don't scare me!"
Mu Qian Shan shook Gu Huang's body with a mission, and his eyes were filled with sadness.
"Who is it? Gu... Young Master Gu, oh my god! Who did this? Young Master Mu, quickly go to the Alchemist Guild and invite someone over." When Yu Chenxi heard the commotion, she walked out. When she saw Gu Huang's appearance, her eyes were filled with surprise.
"Alright, Miss Chenxi, I'll leave the boss to you. I'll go and invite someone now." Mu Qian Shan was at a loss. When he heard Yu Chenxi's words, he immediately prepared to leave.
Gu Huang forced his eyes open and grabbed Mu Qian Shan, "Fatty... Don't go... Miss Chenxi... find a... quiet room... Before I come out... don't tell anyone..."
"Alright, Young Master Mu, help me." Yu Chenxi did not know what had happened, but Gu Huang did not allow her to say it out loud. There was naturally a reason for Gu Huang to do so. She immediately helped Gu Huang up and walked towards the back.
"Young Master Gu, we are just outside. If you need anything, you can tell us at any time." Yu Chenxi brought Gu Huang to her room. Looking at the injuries on Gu Huang's body, her heart was filled with shock. Just who had the guts to injure Gu Huang to such an extent? No matter who the other party was, once Gu Huang's injuries recovered, he would definitely flip the entire Thunder City upside down.
