Chapter 129: Chapter 100 Ruthless and Heartless! The Woman in White Dress!_2

"As the parent official of the people in Canghe County, I am their only protector. You vile maggots dare to trade human lives in secret, an act devoid of any conscience? I am here to carry out heaven’s justice!"

The two seemed to have a tacit agreement, neither revealing whose power was behind this auction.

"Good! Very good! Truly befitting of our righteous magistrate. You’re even more ruthless than Cao Shiduan! This time, we admit defeat!"

The masked figure trembled in fury, clutching his severed hand as he floated away with an eerie, nimble movement. His mastery of movement techniques was formidable, but Liu Yuanhu was not one to let such a big catch escape. With a forceful stomp of his foot, his figure darted out like a lightning-fast leopard in pursuit.

Gu Sheng glanced from afar, not daring to linger. He noticed that the silhouettes battling around him had greatly diminished, and no one seemed to pay attention to this area.

His gaze suddenly turned icy.

Qi Blood Power surged in his right fist, cloaked by the Great Success Snake Breath Skill, without a trace of its presence appearing. The soldier facing him, oblivious to the anomaly, still swung his knife fiercely.

But Gu Sheng’s Qi Blood Power erupted violently, his fists accelerating and intensifying in strength!

Bang!

Like a massive stone weighing thousands of pounds, his fist smashed brutally into the soldier’s chest. A sickening crack echoed as the soldier’s chest caved in, forming a terrifying hollow. His internal organs were instantly crushed, and bright red blood sprayed from his mouth.

"Blood Refining Realm..."

His eyes widened in disbelief, as he died with his eyes open, incapable of fathoming that his opponent, who had sparred with him for so long, turned out to be a cunning expert in the Blood Refining Realm.

Gu Sheng wasted no time, advancing to search through the soldier’s belongings. Unfortunately, his spoils were meager, amounting to less than ten taels of silver.

After all, the soldier wasn’t a guest attending the black market auction; it made sense for him to carry little money.

From afar, Gu Sheng glanced at the central battlefield.

Liu Yuanhu was chasing after the masked man. Meanwhile, those who were previously under heavy scrutiny were now unleashing their power and fleeing in all directions. None of them acted alone; their accompanying followers were shielding them from harm, taking advantage of the chaos to escape without any hesitation.

The other guests were also sprinting down the mountain at full speed. Every guest who dared attend the auction was no ordinary individual; they had their own survival skills.

Gu Sheng felt no attachment to the scene and turned downhill.

This was no place to linger. Liu Yuanhu, being a Bone Refining Realm expert, likely wouldn’t take long to deal with the masked man. If he caught up again, it would spell trouble.

He had no intention of scrounging in the chaos. Although the black market guests were wealthy, the current situation was still perilous. Even if he managed to seize their fortunes, it would ultimately benefit someone else.

As he ran.

A chorus of killing echoed from the foot of the mountain.

Evidently, Liu Yuanhu had stationed men there as well. Those who descended ahead of time were ambushed, taking significant casualties. Many had lost their lives in the surprise assault.

The mountain was indeed fraught with danger at every turn.

Gu Sheng’s gaze tightened, and he changed direction to continue his descent.

Snake Breath Skill silently circulated, concealing both his aura and Qi Blood fluctuations. He sprinted swiftly, navigating shortcuts across the moderately-sized barren mountain — a luxury afforded only to Martial Artists, unlike the twisting paths the palanquin carriers had taken earlier.
