In the Jianzhou Prefecture Inspector Hall, Yang Ling walked in with a smile and said, "Official Chu, I have good news!"
Chu Xiu pretended to be surprised and said, "Oh, what good news?"
Yang Ling smiled and said, "The remnants of the Ghost King Sect have finally been found. Mr. Gu has already gone there. Official Chu, you should also bring your men there quickly."
Chu Xiu said indifferently, "Since the people from Sword King Sect have been found, let them go. Since they think that the people in the Jianzhou Prefecture Inspector Hall are trash and that we don't put in the effort, why should we go there?"
Yang Ling smiled and said, "You can't say that. After all, the people from the Ghost King Sect appeared in the Guanzhong torture room. In the end, the Guanzhong torture room didn't even show up. This is a little too unreasonable. Moreover, this matter was ordered by Foster Father. Official Chu is Foster Father's favorite. He definitely doesn't want to disappoint Foster Father because of such a small matter, right? "
Chu Xiu took a deep look at Yang Ling. In the past, he really didn't pay attention to this person. Now that he saw it, he was not a simple person.
This person was Wei Jiuduan's adopted son, but in reality, he did not hold much power. Also, in the entire Guanzhong Torture Hall, so many inspectors and Jianghu constables did not have any ill feelings towards him. This was not an easy feat.
Just like now, if it were someone else, they would have used Wei Jiuduan to suppress them. They wouldn't be like Yang Ling, who tactfully said a few words. As long as they didn't fall out, they would try their best not to have a conflict with the other party.
Looking at Yang Ling, Chu Xiu suddenly smiled and said, "Since Brother Yang said so, then I will give Brother Yang face and go."
As he spoke, Chu Xiu called out. The Ghost Hand King, Du Guangzhong, and the others immediately left with Yang Ling.
However, Yang Ling felt a little strange. Why did he feel that Chu Xiu seemed to be ready to go?
The people that Chu Xiu brought were all his elite subordinates. These people seemed to have gathered together in advance, so now that Chu Xiu called out, everyone immediately attacked. This was very strange.
However, Yang Ling did not pay much attention to it. After all, the most important thing right now was to clean up the remnants of the Ghost King Sect.
Meanwhile, on Gu Jiangliu's side, Wei Hanshan led him to a deserted villa at the junction of the Shang Prefecture and the Jian Prefecture.
It was said that this place used to be the villa of a small family, but it was abandoned because the family was exterminated.
Legend has it that every night, there would be the sound of ghosts wailing and wailing. It was the exterminated family that had come back to seek justice.
It was daytime at this time, but this place still looked a bit gloomy and terrifying. It was no wonder that such a legend would spread.
Gu Jiangliu sneered and said, "The people of the Ghost King Sect really know how to pick a place. This place matches their style. Let's just let them die here today."
As he spoke, Gu Jiangliu looked at Wei Hanshan and said, "Are you sure that they are here?"
Wei Hanshan nodded and said, "They are definitely here! I saw two people of the Ghost King Sect enter the villa ruins with my own eyes, but I was afraid of alerting them, so I didn't get too close. "
Gu Jiangliu nodded, and there was a touch of coldness in his eyes. He said, "Hide your breath and kill them directly. Don't let any of them go!"
Wei Hanshan hesitated and said, "Mr. Gu, don't you want to wait for Chu Xiu to lead the attack?"
He was thinking of letting Chu Xiu's subordinates go and exhaust them. Now that Chu Xiu hadn't arrived, they were going to attack?
Gu Jiangliu said indifferently, "Put away your little schemes. My Swordking City only wants the lives of the Ghost King Sect's demons. If we are delayed by other matters and let the Ghost King Sect escape, then the gains will not make up for the losses."
Wei Hanshan didn't dare to say anything after hearing Gu Jiangliu's words. He could only do as he was told.
With a wave of Gu Jiangliu's hand, the Swordking City's disciples immediately concealed their breath and followed Gu Jiangliu into the abandoned manor. Wei Hanshan could only helplessly follow behind them.
Even in broad daylight, the abandoned manor still carried a trace of gloomy atmosphere. This atmosphere was very familiar to Gu Jiangliu. It was the stench of the Ghost King Sect's demons.
However, at this moment, a thick black gas suddenly bloomed under the feet of Gu Jiangliu and the others. Countless black fog wrapped around them, and a burst of ghostly wails could be heard. There seemed to be evil spirits in the black fog, constantly tearing at them!
Gu Jiangliu didn't panic in the face of this scene. It was very normal.
The Ghost King Sect's people were not blind. It would be strange if they didn't notice them until they were right in front of them.
Gu Jiangliu was also very familiar with this formation. It was the Ghost Formation of the Ghost King Sect.
This kind of formation was the easiest and fastest to set up. As long as there were more than three Three Flower Realm martial artists of the Ghost King Sect, they could set it up. By connecting the ghosts of the three people together with a secret method, they could set up the Yin Ghost Formation.
Moreover, the stronger the people involved in setting up the formation and the more people there were, the stronger the power of the Ghost Formation would be.
"Great Light Brilliant Sun Sword Formation!"
Gu Jiangliu shouted, and a dazzling light burst from the longsword in his hand.
The other disciples of Swordking City also did the same. With the help of the sword formation, it was as if a blazing sun had risen from the center of the Yin Ghost Formation and instantly tore through the darkness. Now, only ghost cries were left in the Yin Ghost Formation. They were horrifying and mournful ghost cries!
Wei Hanshan, who was in the formation, didn't make a move. There was no need for him to do anything now, so he was also carefully observing the power of the Swordking City disciples when they attacked.
The other party was truly worthy of being a member of the Five Major Sword Sects. Although he used a saber, he could feel the terror of the other party's powerful sword technique. In all fairness, in terms of individual strength, this group of Swordking City's martial artists far surpassed the Guanzhong Punishment Hall's.
After all, although most of the Jianghu arresters in the Guanzhong Torture Room were strong, they weren't really good at killing and fighting.
Of course, there were exceptions, such as the group of secret agents in the Criminal Division. The strength of this group of people was simply insanely strong. They were both in the Three Flower Realm, but Wei Hanshan was not confident that he could fight them to a draw.
Just as Wei Hanshan's thoughts were running wild, Gu Jiangliu and the others thought that they had broken the formation and were ready to capture the remaining demonic cultivators of the Ghost King Sect in one fell swoop, a black spear suddenly stabbed at Gu Jiangliu from behind.
The spear was very evil. The body of the spear was black, but the tip was a strange blood-red.
There was also a pungent smell of blood coming from the tip of the spear, as if the spear had been soaked in blood before.
Gu Jiangliu felt a strong sense of danger. At this moment, he suddenly tensed up. His Gang Qi erupted around him, and a raging flame surrounded him. Without looking back, the Flaming River Sword in his hand slashed behind him. The Flaming River Sword erupted with a loud bang, as if the Flaming River was flowing backward.
However, at this moment, a sharp ghost's howl suddenly rang in Gu Jiangliu's ears, causing his vision to darken. In the haze, he seemed to see an evil ghost biting at him. This made Gu Jiangliu's head suddenly hurt, and he let out a miserable howl. The sword in his hand also paused.
It was this pause that allowed the strange demonic spear behind him to slash across his ribs, instantly taking away a piece of his flesh.
Moreover, the demonic spear seemed to be able to suck blood. A large amount of blood was swallowed by the demonic spear, making the smell of blood on the spear even stronger.
Gu Jiangliu let out a muffled groan and retreated. Ignoring his injuries, his Gang Qi erupted around him, and he looked behind him. When he saw the scene behind him, he couldn't help but show a hint of shock in his eyes.
"Blood-devouring Demonic Spear! Gui Ming, your injuries have actually healed!? Impossible! You were hit by Uncle-Master's Sky-burning Sword Qi, it's impossible for you to recover so quickly! "
Behind Gu Jiangliu was Gui Ming, who was holding the Blood-devouring Demonic Spear, and a dozen Ghost King Sect disciples.
From the looks of it, they weren't preparing to refine pills in a hurry to heal their injuries. Instead, they were prepared to ambush them.
Gu Jiangliu was not an idiot. He immediately realized what was going on. This was a trap!
Previously, Gu Jiangliu and the people from Swordking City were the hunters, but now, the prey had set up a trap to kill them.
Gu Jiangliu turned to Wei Hanshan and said coldly, "How dare you collude with the Ghost King Sect to frame us!"
The traces of the Ghost King Sect were discovered by Wei Hanshan, and Wei Hanshan even said that the people of the Ghost King Sect had already gathered the elixirs and were preparing to refine pills. Now that they looked at it, the other party had even recovered from their injuries and were preparing to ambush them.
Wei Hanshan was dumbfounded. He couldn't figure out what was going on at all.
"Mr. Gu, it really wasn't me! I'm not an idiot. What's in it for me to collude with the Ghost King Sect? Besides, even if I really colluded with the Ghost King Sect, I wouldn't be stupid enough to come with you. Wouldn't that be courting death? "
Looking at the ferocious faces of the Swordking City warriors, Wei Hanshan felt that he was simply unlucky.
Things were going well. How did it turn out like this in the blink of an eye? What did it have to do with him that the Swordking City people were ambushed?
Gu Jiangliu's eyes showed a trace of hesitation. Wei Hanshan indeed had no reason or motive to do this.
Moreover, Wei Hanshan was currently surrounded by the Swordking City people, and he had insisted on coming. If he really colluded with the Ghost King Sect and did this, wouldn't he be courting death?
However, Gu Jiangliu couldn't care less about Wei Hanshan at this time.
Just now, he had been hit by the Infernal Ghost Spear, and one-tenth of his Qi and blood had been directly absorbed by the Blood Devouring Demon Spear!
The Blood Devouring Demon Spear was a powerful Divine Weapon of the Ghost King Sect. It could devour flesh and blood to nourish itself, and it could also nourish the user. As long as the user was touched by it, they would become stronger and stronger!
