Several hours passed, and the Three Murders Gang's members entered the secret room one after another. They had the newest hostages write letters to their families.
The last one was Gongsun Wuxie's turn. She seemed to have just entered not long ago.
"Uncle, please let me go." Tears streamed down Gongsun Wuxie's face, and she looked as innocent and pitiful as a little lamb.
The person who came in was a middle-aged man in his early twenties. He looked Gongsun Wuxie up and down, and a lustful look appeared in his eyes.
Gongsun Wuxie was born beautiful and adorable. She was a beauty in the making, and coupled with her pitiful and delicate appearance, it made her even more lovable.
"Little beauty, give uncle a kiss and I'll let you go. How about it?" The middle-aged man smiled evilly and reached out to touch her smooth white face.
Gongsun Wuxie shrank back and cried out in fear, "Uncle, don't. My family has a lot of money, and I can give you as much as you want."
The middle-aged man chuckled and said, "This little girl's family is rich, but can they be richer than our Three Murders Gang? As long as you listen to uncle, I'll let you go immediately. "
There were many people in the gang who were interested in this sweet and lovely little girl.
Half a day ago, this little girl had gotten lost in the outer city, and a member of the gang had discovered her. He had deceived her and brought her to the Three Murders Gang. He had imprisoned her and planned to sell her for a good price.
Such a pure and lovely beautiful girl was worth a lot of money.
Gongsun Wuxie cried and said, "My family runs an auction, and we are very rich."
Auction? The middle-aged man was shocked. He retracted his hand and licked his lips. His eyes flashed with excitement. "Auction? Which auction?"
"Tianya Auction House …" Gongsun Wuxie cried.
The middle-aged man's expression changed drastically. "Tianya Auction House? You aren't lying?"
When Gongsun Wuxie saw that she could be saved, she immediately took off the pendant on her neck and handed it to him. "This is my keepsake, and as long as you bring it to the Tianya Auction House, they will be able to verify my identity. As long as you don't harm me, the Tianya Auction House will give you as many crystals as you want. "
The middle-aged man grabbed the pendant. The pendant was fiery red, and it looked like a fiery red bird. It contained traces of flame power.
"Hiss, Fire Essence Jade?" The middle-aged man gasped.
This pendant was surprisingly refined from the extremely precious Fire Essence Jade.
Fire Essence Jade was born from extremely hot flames.
This fire was usually not a reverse fire, but a terrifying fire that had been burning for hundreds of years.
Even an All Creations expert would not dare to enter this kind of flame easily!
The Fire Essence Jade was a peerless jade essence that was formed after hundreds of years of tempering in such terrifying flames!
The Fire Marrow inside was liquid and also the essence of fire. A single drop was worth a million crystal stones!
Within the Fire Essence Jade, one could see with the naked eye that there was a drop of Jade Essence rolling within!
Just this pendant alone was worth a million crystals!!
The middle-aged man simply couldn't believe that the little girl in front of him possessed such a heaven-defying treasure!
When he looked at Gongsun Wuxie again, it was as if he was looking at a crystal mine, and his eyes shone brightly. He knew what kind of reward he would receive if he presented this item to the faction leader!
Although he really wanted to keep the Fire Chalcedony for himself, he understood that if he really did that, he would definitely not be able to escape the Three Murders Gang's pursuit.
Hence, the wise man decided to present this item to the faction leader in exchange for trust and rewards. Perhaps he could even be promoted!
He left the dungeon excitedly and rushed toward the faction leader's location through the complicated tunnels.
The bitter Gongsun Wuxie stopped crying, and a smug and sly smile appeared at the corners of her mouth. "Humph! He took the bait so easily! It's really not challenging at all!"
In the dungeon, before the shocked gazes of the hostages, Gongsun Wuxie wiped away her tears and threw her two braids behind her head. She clasped her hands behind her back, raised her head, and kicked open the dungeon's door.
The people behind her couldn't help but be shocked. Then, their faces lit up with joy, and they all wanted to rush out.
However, after Gongsun Wuxie went out, she closed the door again and rolled her eyes at them. "What's the rush? Wait until I take the faction leader's head and complete the task, then I will let you out! If you come out now, you will only alert the enemy. "
As she spoke, she clapped her hands and quickly followed behind the middle-aged man, walking back and forth in the complicated underground tunnels.
After five minutes, the middle-aged man cautiously arrived in front of an inconspicuous and ordinary stone cave.
This stone cave was no different from the cave where the ordinary members lived.
However, the middle-aged man was extremely respectful, and he stood respectfully in front of the stone door. "Faction Leader, I have an important matter to discuss with you."
After waiting for a moment, the stone door opened silently, and a cold snort transmitted from inside. "I told you, don't call me faction leader so casually!"
The middle-aged man was a yes-man, and he didn't dare to move. He didn't think much of it, and he thought that his faction leader was too cautious. He was so cautious even in his own territory.
"Come in," the person inside said.
The middle-aged man entered, and the stone door immediately closed tightly.
No one knew that the famous faction leader of the Three Murders Gang was actually staying in such an ordinary secret room. If this person hadn't led the way, who would have thought that he would be here?
After a short while, a petite figure appeared nearby stealthily. She wore a sly smile on her small mouth. "Humph! Humph! Humph! It turns out that you were hiding here! It took me a long time to find you!"
In the room …
A man shrouded in black light sat on a stone bed, and he seemed to be cultivating some powerful demonic technique.
"Why are you looking for me?" The man shrouded in black light was the Three Murders Gang's faction leader, and he was an extremely mysterious expert. In the past, when a Red Blood Palace's Divine Master had led a group of people to kill him, he had managed to kill that Divine Master's expert.
The middle-aged man trembled with fear as he spoke, "Faction Leader, we found a member of the Tianya Auction House among the hostages, and after I learned about it, I immediately came to report it to you."
"A member of the Tianya Auction House? Why did they bring their people here? " The faction leader furrowed his brows. "This faction's background is quite mysterious, and I would rather provoke the Red Blood Palace and the Purple Cloud Palace than provoke it. So, what kind of identity did they capture? If it's just an ordinary person, we should just let him go. There's no need to offend the great faction behind the Tianya Auction House for a small ransom. "
If it was an ordinary member, they wouldn't be able to extort a large amount of ransom, and they would easily offend this mysterious faction.
Cold sweat seeped out of the middle-aged man's forehead. Does the faction leader mean that he doesn't want to become enemies with the Tianya Auction House?
He realized that he had probably overreached himself.
After hesitating for a while, the middle-aged man took out the Fire Essence Jade Pendant and said gravely, "Faction Leader, please make a decision. This is the keepsake we found on that member's body. She claims that the Tianya Auction House belongs to her family."
The Faction Leader rolled up his sleeves and grabbed the Fire Essence Jade Pendant. As he examined it carefully, his expression became grave, and his pupils contracted. "It can't be wrong. This is Fairy Ling's keepsake from the Tianya Auction House!"
"Who did you capture and bring here?" Anger and killing intent appeared in the Faction Leader's eyes. "You are just a bunch of fools! You have all committed a grave mistake!"
Fear and wariness could be heard in his voice.
It was as if he was afraid of the Tianya Auction House!
The middle-aged man knelt on the ground and said, "I don't know either. It was a gang member who deceived her and brought her here."
The Faction Leader was infuriated. "You are just a bunch of good-for-nothings who can't do anything right! If you captured an ordinary member and let her go, we can avoid trouble, and the Tianya Auction House won't make trouble for us just for an ordinary member. But, since she has Fairy Ling's keepsake, she must be an important member. Even if we let her go now, the Tianya Auction House won't let this matter go. "
A wisp of killing intent appeared on his face as he asked, "Where is she?"
Since the matter had already reached this point, he couldn't let her go, and the only way to avoid trouble was to kill her.
As long as the Tianya Auction House didn't know that she was killed by the Three Murders Gang, they wouldn't get into any trouble.
When the Faction Leader's voice just echoed, the middle-aged man suddenly fell on the ground. His eyes were still open, but his limbs were limp, and he couldn't move in the slightest. Only his mouth could move slightly as he cried for help in fright. "Faction Leader, save me, save me! I can't move all of a sudden …"
The Faction Leader's black radiance flickered, and his expression changed. "Were you poisoned? When did you get poisoned? "
The Faction Leader suddenly realized something and shouted in a low voice, "It's awful! There is something wrong with the pendant …"
As he shouted in a low voice, he quickly threw the Fire Essence Jade in his hand.
However, it was already too late for him to throw it.
The Vital Energy in the Faction Leader's body became sluggish, and his whole body became limp and powerless. He then fell on the bed, his limbs stiff, and he couldn't move. He cried out in alarm, "What kind of poison is this? Even an Almighty Divine Master can't resist it …"
Creak!
At this moment, the leisurely sound of a stone door opening drifted into his ears.
A petite young girl, who had her hands clasped behind her back, walked into the stone room with a smile and said, "You reacted quite quickly."
Gongsun Wuxie smiled as she picked up the pendant and swept it with her Vital Energy. A layer of pink mist, which could be seen by the naked eye, was swept away from the pendant's surface.
This was the object that had poisoned the Faction Leader.
"Who are you?" The Faction Leader's pupils contracted as he shouted in a deep voice.
The little demoness walked over and revealed a cute and sweet smile. "I'm obviously here to take your life. Don't you know that your life is quite valuable in the Red Blood Palace? It's worth 300,000 merit points, and you are the Eighteen Blessed and Heavenly Lands' thirteenth most wanted criminal, Ghost Buddha. So, you are quite valuable. "
The expression of the Faction Leader, whose whole body was engulfed by a black radiance, changed drastically. "How did you know my identity?"
The middle-aged man lying on the ground was also startled. "What? Did you just say that our Faction Leader is the infamous wanted criminal, Ghost Buddha?"
There were a series of wanted criminals in the Eighteen Blessed and Heavenly Lands, and all of them were vicious and merciless criminals who killed without batting an eyelid.
However, due to their high cultivations, the Eighteen Blessed and Heavenly Lands' experts weren't able to capture them in time.
This was why the Eighteen Blessed and Heavenly Lands' wanted list was issued!
