Gu Sheng learned from Lin Miaomiao that the Three-pattern Iron Thunderwood they stole from Mu Qinghe was a kind of weapon refining material from Yellow Grade Mid Rank. Although Roaring Thunder Fruit was not of high grade, it was still valuable! These items together are worth nearly one million taels! It was prepared by the sect elder Huang Chengyun for his son's breakthrough Marrow Refining Realm.

When Huang Chengyun found out about this, he was very angry. He originally wanted to vent his anger on Lin Miaomiao and the others, but he never thought that because of Gu Sheng, he did not dare to be too public. After all, he did all these things behind the sect's back. If this matter got serious, he would not be a good person.

Although he didn't take any action on the surface, privately he had been investigating this matter.

Mu Qinghe and the others came to Saint Pill City this time mainly to ask Elder Huang to help them refine Three-pattern Iron Thunderwood into a treasure!

Although Mu Qingyuan, Mu Qingwen and Mu Qinghe are descendants of the master family, they are all marginal figures and have little sense of presence. If they ask the blacksmiths in the clan for help, the news may be leaked, so they can only come to Elder Huang.

Although Elder Huang is a special enshrinement of the Mu's Merchant Guild, he has a high degree of freedom, and the senior management of Mu family generally dare not ask him.

Gu Sheng originally thought about blackmailing the three of them when he could meet them. After all, he didn't have much money left. Now that there are more and more places to use money, the demand for money is also getting bigger and bigger. He must find some way to make money!

Gu Sheng immediately chased after him and shouted, "Brother Mu, long time no see! You're welcome and safe!"

Mu Qinghe stopped and turned his head when he heard the voice behind him. When he saw it was Gu Sheng, Mu Qingyuan's expression suddenly became solemn.

"Why is he here! Could it be that there is some connection in this Saint Pill Sect?"

Mu Qinghe was a little panicked. He never expected that Gu Sheng would come to Saint Pill City in such a short time! Generally, "geniuses" from small places like Gu Sheng will go to the Governor's Mansion City if they come to Chiyun Prefecture Domain!

After all, Governor's Mansion is the official manager of Chiyun Prefecture Domain, and Governor's Mansion city is also the most prosperous city in Chiyun Prefecture Domain. There are more opportunities there, and it is more reliable and easier than joining a sect.

Although he was a little panicked, Mu Qinghe quickly suppressed the panic in his eyes, frowning with a look of confusion on his face. "Who are you? How do you know my name?"

Gu Sheng didn't talk nonsense to him. He walked up to him and laughed softly, "Thunderwood Mountain things have been forgotten so quickly? The appearance of my sect Elder Huang There are people all over the world looking for you. Not to mention, you are so brave that you dare to come to Saint Pill City. You are really not afraid of being chopped by Elder Huang."

Mu Qinghe's heart sank, his brows furrowed, and his tone became clearer, "Have you joined Saint Pill Sect?" As he spoke, he inadvertently put his hand on the saber at his waist.

This location is between Saint Pill City and Saint Pill Sect, which is about a mile away from each other. There are not many people on the road at this time, and Mu Qinghe has a little more murderous intention towards Gu Sheng.

Naturally, Mu Qinghe's little move could not hide from Gu Sheng's perception. With a smile on his face, he reached out and gently patted Mu Qinghe's hand that was already on the knife. "The people coming and going here are all my Saint Pill Sect senior brothers, so be careful!"

At this moment, Mu Qinghe also heard footsteps coming from a distance. Not far away, two disciples of the Saint Pill Sect were coming back from shopping in Saint Pill City. Seeing this, Mu Qinghe could only let go of the hand holding the handle of the knife.

"What do you want? Although you are now a disciple of the Saint Pill Sect, I, the Mu clan, are not easy to mess with! We are members of the head family of the Mu clan, and our status is not comparable to that of an ordinary disciple like you! If you are wise, I advise you to keep this matter in your stomach, otherwise your end will be miserable!"

Gu Sheng was also amused when he heard this. "Members of the master's family? Your Mu family is so big and has a large population. How dare everyone dare to make trouble on the head of elder Saint Pill Sect? In my opinion, the three of you brothers are the master of the Mu family. They are also marginalized in the family! I am not afraid to tell you that your threats are ineffective against me. I have been an orphan since I was a child. Even the village where I have lived for many years cannot tolerate me and expelled me, so I won't feel any pain even if you kill them all!"

Mu Qinghe didn't expect Gu Sheng to be such a bachelor, so she stared at him coldly. "Then what do you want?"

Gu Sheng raised the corners of his mouth slightly, patted Mu Qinghe's arm and said with a smile, "Everyone is asking for money when they go out, and I don't want you to ask for more. Give me five hundred thousand taels, and I will pretend it never happened! What?"

Mu Qinghe never expected that Gu Sheng's appetite would be so big. He immediately refused with a black face. "Impossible! Those things are not worth so much money in total. We don't have so much money to give you!"

Gu Sheng raised his eyebrows. "Hey, you don't really think that I am still the same Little White as before! To tell you the truth, I have already investigated the value of Three-pattern Iron Thunderwood and Roaring Thunder Fruit. Those things alone are already worth a million taels, let alone After being refined into treasures and elixirs, the price will double! Even if you give me 500,000 taels, you will still make a profit of at least 500,000 taels. Secondly, these five hundred thousand taels are also the life money of your brothers! You must have heard of Elder Huang's temper. What's the use of keeping the money if he really cuts it off?"

Mu Qinghe looked at Gu Sheng and then said, "We don't have that much money on us right now, so we have to raise some money! Tonight, there is a barren slope ten miles north of Saint Pill City. Let's meet there! I will give you the money then!"

The three brothers Mu Qinghe are all Copper Bone Realm, and they are not a big threat to Gu Sheng. They themselves dare not speak out about this kind of thing, but Gu Sheng is not afraid of what they will do.

"No problem! See you later!"

Gu Sheng first pretended to leave, and after disappearing from Mu Qinghe's sight, he immediately changed his appearance with Body Shifting and Bone Changing Art and came back to follow Mu Qinghe.

This is five hundred thousand taels, and Gu Sheng is also afraid that he will run away, so it is safer to come and keep an eye on him in person.

Mu Qinghe entered the city and walked straight into a brothel named Bright Moon Pavilion.

Gu Sheng wanted to follow, but he really couldn't stand such a glamorous scene, so he had no choice but to give up and find a seat by the window in a restaurant opposite.

Mu Qinghe entered Bright Moon Pavilion and soon came to a room on the second floor. At this time, an urgent and indescribable voice came from the room. Mu Qinghe knocked on the door and whispered, "Brother Yuan, Brother Wen!"

Mu Qingyuan and Mu Qingwen, who were having fun in the room, suddenly became unhappy when they heard Mu Qinghe's voice. "Don't bother us!"

Mu Qinghe Although he knew that the two of them were at a critical moment, the matter was really urgent, so he simply pushed the door open and went in.

In the house, Mu Qingyuan two brothers were playing a three-person game with a half-clothed woman. Mu Qinghe suddenly broke in and the three of them immediately stopped their actions.

The woman glanced at Mu Qinghe, and she was not shy. She looked at Mu Qinghe with charming eyes. "If you add one more person, you will have to pay extra."

Mu Qingyuan and Mu Qingwen's faces darkened. "Who let you in! Get out!"

Mu Qinghe didn't waste any time. He walked over and pulled the woman up from the bed. He picked up a quilt and threw it to her. Then he took out a silver coin and stuffed it into her hand. "It's none of your business, get out!"

The woman took the silver and threw the quilt on the ground with a frown, picked up a piece of gauze on the side and put it on before walking out.

The woman left, and Mu Qingyuan and Mu Qingwen, who were still unfinished, became furious.

"Mu Qinghe! What do you mean?"

Mu Qingyuan said and raised his fist to hit Mu Qinghe.

Mu Qinghe looked gloomy, sat on the stool and said, "There was a fish that slipped through the net in the last mission, and I met it today!"

Mu Qingyuan and Mu Qingwen were shocked when they heard this. They pulled off their pants and put them on and hurriedly sat down and asked, "Who is it? Have you dealt with him cleanly?"

Mu Qingyuan shook his head. "He is now Saint Pill Sect's disciple. How dare I do it in broad daylight! This kid asked me for 500,000 taels of hush money, and threatened me. If I don't give it to him, he will go to Huang Chengyuan to report us!"

Mu Qingyuan was so angry that he punched the table. "Fuck! If I had known, I should have killed them all!"

Mu Qingwen's brows were full of murderous intent. "This kid has a big appetite, and he's not afraid of stuffing himself to death!"

"I have made an appointment with him to meet him tonight at midnight on a deserted slope ten miles away. This kid is a nuisance, and we are going to do it for him tonight!"

Hearing this, Gu Qingyuan sneered disdainfully, "He's just a Blood Refining Realm perfect guy. Any one of us can easily defeat him, let alone the three of us? You're so prepared, you think too highly of him!"

Mu Qingwen has a cautious character. After thinking for a moment, he rejected his brother's idea. "No! This place is too close to the Saint Pill Sect. If they want to check it, they can easily find it."

Mu Qingyuan was a little angry, "Should we kill him or not? If not, where can we get so much money to give him?"

Mu Qingwen snapped his fingers and revealed a sinister smile, "This kid will be a disaster even if he is left alive. He must be killed, but he must pay attention to his method!"

Mu Qingyuan and Mu Qinghe looked at him one after another. "Why are you so particular about the law?"

"I heard Saint Pill Sect's disciples chatting downstairs earlier. They seem to have been in trouble with the Thousand Poisons Sect's people recently! Let's get some poisons and hidden weapons commonly used by the Thousand Poisons Sect. When the time comes, we can kill this kid and deliberately leave some clues to divert the trouble!"

Mu Qingyuan gave his brother a thumbs up after hearing this. "Wonderful! That boy was able to easily find 20,000 taels to buy Stone Shattering Crossbow last time. He is also a wealthy owner. You might even make a fortune by killing him! Qinghe, you will go to the black market later to get some Thousand Poisons Sect poisons and hidden weapons."

"Okay! The method has been finalized, let's continue?"

Mu Qingwen also had a lewd smile on his face, "Qingyuan, do you want to come together? It's very exciting!"

Mu Qinghe felt a chill when he remembered the scene when he first came in. Although he also liked sports, he was not so perverted. He hurriedly shook his head and waved his hand to refuse. "I'll forget it! You two can play, I'll get the things first!"

After Mu Qinghe went out, Mu Qingyuan had a look of contempt on his face. "Tch! This kid really doesn't know how to enjoy it! How can it be better to have fun alone than to have fun with others! Brother, should you continue to call me the same person as before or change it to another one?"

"I just like the saucy vibe of the one just now! Just her!"

Mu Qinghe didn't stay in the Bright Moon Pavilion for long, just over ten minutes. When he came out of Mingyue, he had already changed his outfit and had a simple disguise on his face.

Gu Sheng was drinking leisurely in the restaurant when suddenly his eyes were fixed on a fat man who had just walked out.

After a while, Gu Sheng couldn't help but laugh and said, "You're quite careful! It's just that this disguise technique is too bad!"

Gu Sheng quickly followed after throwing down some broken silver.

This fat man is exactly what Mu Qinghe looks like after his disguise.

Gu Sheng followed Mu Qinghe and wandered around Saint Pill City for a long time before arriving at a lively casino.

The casino was buzzing with people. After Mu Qinghe entered, he didn't stop and just squeezed through the crowd toward the backyard.

Gu Sheng could only wander around the casino for a while to avoid being discovered. After about ten minutes, he squeezed towards the backyard.

Arriving in the backyard, there was a ferocious-looking man with a beard sitting boredly at the counter.

After seeing Gu Sheng, the big man didn't even raise his head. He took out a mask from under the counter and handed it to him. "Buy three, sell two!"

Gu Sheng After seeing the mask, he suddenly realized that this place was not only a gambling house but also a black market!

Gu Sheng took out two hundred taels of silver notes and put them into the big man's hand. His feet began to step on the floor regularly. When he finished stepping, a slope of two or three levels appeared on the ground behind him. Gu Sheng put on his mask and slid down the slope. After the end, the sound of noisy bargaining in the market could be heard in his ears.

After walking into the light, Gu Sheng was shocked by the scale of the black market.

Although this black market is underground, it is very vast. Gu Sheng just scanned it so casually, it is estimated by visual inspection that it is no less than three thousand square meters! He also saw several people wearing black armor stationed at the edge. Apparently there were some more "advanced" areas over there.

The black market is very large, with many people setting up stalls and buying things. Gu Sheng shuttles among the crowd looking for Mu Qinghe.

Mu Qinghe The disguised figure was relatively easy to find, and it didn't take long for Gu Sheng to discover him.

At this time, Gu Qinghe was squatting in front of a stall and chatting quietly with the shop owner. In order not to alert the snake, Gu Sheng squatted down in front of a stall not far away.

"Hey, boss, do you want to buy martial arts? The complete version of my Star Piercing Sword Art is a first-rate martial arts! Although this is just a broken copy, it is as powerful as a second-rate martial arts. I see that you are attracted to me, so how about I open one today to make it cheaper for you?"

Gu Sheng Just squatted down, the boss wearing a monkey mask immediately started talking.

Gu Sheng picked up the martial arts copy book on the stall, opened it, and asked casually, "How much is it cheaper?"

The boss suddenly became interested when he heard this tone. "Hey, brother! It's hard to find this kind of first-class martial arts swordsmanship! I am the only one in this huge black market. I just left the stall today and haven't opened it yet. I don't want more. I just treat you as a friend and charge you 50,000 taels. I usually don't talk about the shortage of 100,000 taels."

The boss's tone sounded as if Gu Sheng had gotten a huge bargain. Gu Sheng When he heard the price, he thought that what the boss was selling must be the real thing, so he opened it carefully and looked at it.
