"Can we talk?" Gu Chen stomped the poison under his foot and looked at him coldly.
"Since I have lost to you, then you may kill me or torture me, it is entirely up to you!"
The man showed no fear, and even spoke with considerable bravado.
"Interesting." Gu Chen lifted the man, then sealed his acupoints to prevent him from gathering qi, and threw him into the back of the car. Next, he walked over to Ma Gang, channeled some True Qi into him, and asked, "Is this still working?"
"I'm fine." Ma Gang took a breath and said fiercely, "Young Master Gu, aren't you going to kill that guy?"
"He held back, otherwise you wouldn't have survived that blow," Gu Chen said. "I have a use for him. If there's nothing else, keep driving, let's meet up with Zhao Bo first."
Ma Gang nodded, glared hatefully at the man in the back of the car, and then started the car!
The exchange between the two just now completely overturned his understanding. At this moment, he suddenly understood why every martial artist wanted to climb higher. Whether it was the Late Bone-Forge Realm or the Revolving Illumination Realm, the power they generated was so great that even bullets couldn't harm them! In an instant, his pursuit of martial arts rose to a new level, and he even felt ashamed of his previous complacent attitude!
This world is indeed full of talented people and powerful individuals!
Lu Fan in the black market is only at the Mid Bone Forging, but Gu Chen, Zhao Bo, and even this suddenly appearing assassin all possess unparalleled strength! If they don't cultivate, they will fall behind, and falling behind naturally means they are not far from death.
At that moment, Ma Gang made up his mind.
"Was that something you used just now a magical artifact?"
The man remained silent throughout the drive. After more than ten minutes, Gu Chen finally spoke, saying, "You're at the Late Bone-Forge Realm. Among the silver-ranked assassins of the Wuji Manor, you should be considered one of the best, right?"
The man completely ignored Gu Chen, only giving him a contemptuous smile upon hearing this.
"Very good!" A sharp glint flashed in Gu Chen's eyes. He then knocked the man unconscious with a chop to the neck and pressed his pressure points.
They traveled in silence until they reached the vicinity of the Zhou Family's manor on the outskirts of the city. From afar, Gu Chen could already see a jeep there.
"You stay in the car and keep an eye on this guy for me."
After saying that, Gu Chen got out of the car.
"Master!"
Three people got out of the jeep: Zhao Bo, Zhu Jun, and Jiang Qi.
Zhao Bo saw Gu Chen, licked his dry lips, and said, "Ready to make a move?"
"Hmm." Gu Chen glanced at the Zhou Family manor, his eyes icy, and said, "Let's go. I'll get in your car and ram it in."
"Okay!" Zhao Bo nodded, got into the car, and Jiang Qi drove. The jeep then sped off towards the Zhou Family's gate.
At the main gate of the Zhou Family Manor, there was a security booth and several security cameras around the area. But before they could react, the front of the jeep slammed into the iron gate!
Bang!
Although the iron gate was sturdy, the jeep had been modified and provided to them by Lu Fan on the black market. Now, at a speed of over 100 miles per hour, the impact caused a huge dent in the iron gate.
What are you doing?!
Several security guards ran out of the pavilion.
As bodyguards for the wealthy, they were all well-built, with muscular physiques resembling those of retired soldiers. Now, armed with weapons, they were cursing angrily at the direction of the jeep.
"Master, this gate is difficult to break down; it will take at least two or three more times."
Zhao Bo spoke up.
"No need for that. Let's deal with them and open the door to go in."
Gu Chen lay back in the back seat and said calmly.
Zhu Jun nodded, then put on the boxing gloves, gave a cruel smile, and walked towards the security guard.
Before the security guards could even make a move, Zhu Jun knocked them all to the ground with a single punch each.
"You're so useless!"
Zhu Jun muttered a few curses, then went into the pavilion and turned on the button for the main gate.
"Rumble rumble--"
The somewhat damaged gate slowly opened to both sides with a heavy thud, and at the same time, an alarm sounded inside the manor, its wailing echoing throughout the entire suburbs.
"Never mind that, go inside."
After Zhu Jun got into the car, Gu Chen said calmly.
At the same time, inside the Zhou Family Manor.
Zhou Nanfeng was now standing in front of a man dressed in an ancient-style robe, his expression slightly respectful, as if he were waiting for some instruction.
It would be extremely rare for anyone else present to see the dignified head of the Zhou Family display such an attitude.
However, it is not surprising that he was like this, because the middle-aged man in the long robe in front of him was a martial artist from the Steel Tremor Sect, one of the most prestigious sects in Huaxia!
Moreover, he's a martial artist at the Revolving Illumination Realm!
Zhou Nanfeng called him a master because his strength had reached the Grandmaster level!
It was precisely because of this person's backing that he began to act recklessly in Zhou City, preparing to dominate the city!
"Master Jiang, what should we do next?"
Finally, Zhou Nanfeng spoke up and asked.
Master Jiang picked up the teacup on the table, took a small sip, and then said, "Weren't you investigating recently? What were the results? And what was the Gu Family's attitude?"
"Gu Beichi couldn't possibly have any connections. I've already asked Gu Changfeng about this. Gu Changfeng is the current head of the Gu Family family, so what he said shouldn't be false," Zhou Nanfeng said. "However, that Gu Chen guy seems to be acting a bit strange lately."
"What's so strange about a mere teenager?" Master Jiang said calmly. "I might not even care about the Gu Family, let alone a mere teenager."
"The Jiang Family of Zhou City, for some reason, has somehow gotten involved with him. Not only that, it seems that Zhao Haiqing of the Black Wind Hall, as well as the Wen Family, are quite wary of him," Zhou Nanfeng said. "Furthermore, he used to frequent the black market, so he seems to have close ties with it as well."
"You don't need to go into details about the families of Zhou City; I'm not interested." Master Jiang said arrogantly, "As for the black market, if I remember correctly, the background of your Zhou City black market should be the Water Cloud Sect, right? I'll give you a heads-up, and dealing with the Gu Family father and son will be a piece of cake."
"There's no need to trouble Master Jiang with this matter; Wuji Manor has already accepted the mission." Zhou Nanfeng revealed a cruel smile and said, "I estimate we'll have results from Gu Chen soon!"
"A mere father and son abandoned by a small family have become your biggest worry? How laughable." Master Jiang chuckled lightly and said, "But it's good that you resolve this sooner, and that you can start working for me sooner. Recently, more and more people have received news that the Liu Family has sent men to Zhou City. I don't want any mishaps."
"Don't worry, I will definitely take care of it for you." Zhou Nanfeng quickly lowered his head and said in a deep voice.
Thump!
But just then, a loud bang came from outside, interrupting their conversation.
"What's going on?" Master Jiang raised an eyebrow.
Zhou Nanfeng's heart tightened, and he quickly went to the window, his face immediately filled with shock.
Because a strange jeep slowly drove into the main gate below!
