How much of Gao Xianchang's actions were sincere and how much of it was an act, a truly smart person would naturally be able to tell.
His fear was real, and so was his anger. However, with his cultivation as the strongest Outer Building realm cultivator in the Gao Clan, who could stop him if he really wanted to kill his son?
Probably only the blind watchman could do it, but he didn't react at all.
Gao Xianchang could only "helplessly" stop under his clansmen's desperate attempts to stop him.
His fear, his anger, and the fact that he purposely pointed out the watchman's identity was nothing more than a show of weakness and self-protection.
He was willing to put the Calm Sea Gao Clan in a lowly position to beg the watchman's forgiveness for his son.
In the worst case scenario, if something happened to the Calm Sea Gao Clan, people would naturally link it to the watchman. This was a form of protection in broad daylight.
It was very smart, but also very helpless.
Because even if the Calm Sea Gao Clan used all of their power, there was no other way to protect the domineering Gao Qing.
A favored Noble Consort Jing allowed the entire Calm Sea Gao Clan to rise to the heavens. No matter what happened, as long as Noble Consort Jing was mentioned, everything would go smoothly. As a result, Gao Qing had developed an arrogant personality.
Gao Xianchang was protecting his son.
Of course, the blind watchman was well aware of this. Although he had been blind for a long time, it was just like what he had said to Zhong Xuan Sheng at the old site of the Withered Courtyard that day — "This old man's eyes may be blind, but his heart is clear!"
In a situation where both sides were attacked at the same time, it was his choice to go to Tianfu City first before coming to the Gao Clan. Yue Leng, who had already retired, had to care about Noble Consort Jing's feelings, but as the watchman's leader, he didn't.
No matter how favored Noble Consort Jing was, she couldn't reach out to the watchman.
Killing wasn't too interesting, but it wasn't too tiring either.
After 'watchman' for the Jiang Dynasty for so many years, what he was best at was killing people, and what he did the most was also killing people.
And now, he was leaving this place, and it had nothing to do with the Calm Sea Gao Clan. It was only because there was someone more important to kill.
…
…
Linhai County.
At the docks that had just been ravaged.
After King Dushi was killed in an instant, the night watchman turned around and headed for Jinghai County.
The soldiers on the dock and the sea merchants who happened to stop there all calmed down and counted their losses.
The dead were already dead, but the living still had to live.
Although it was rare for the King of Hell to launch a surprise attack on the docks, it was definitely not an isolated case.
It was just that Qi had been powerful in the Eastern Region for too long, and many Qi people could not get used to it.
Amidst the hustle and bustle, one of the "corpses" among the first to be killed by King Dushi suddenly moved.
This corpse was originally lying face down. It was an ordinary sea merchant's follower who had been accidentally hit by King Dushi's attack and had died in a hurry.
But at this moment, he abruptly clambered to his feet, and his aura was completely different from before. He was fierce and ruthless, and he was wearing a Yama-King mask on his face - the King Coroner!
It turned out that he had sneaked into this dock early on and deliberately "died" in the hands of King Dushi.
With Blind's strength as a night watchman, it was not difficult for him to see through his disguise. But even a powerhouse like Blind's night watchman would only pay attention to King Dushi in the situation at that time. Other than that, he would at most observe those who were still alive and subconsciously ignore those who were already dead.
It was undoubtedly a very risky act for the King Coroner to disguise himself as a corpse under the eyes of such a powerhouse.
But it was precisely because of his courage to take risks at the edge of a cliff that he succeeded in obtaining such a wonderful opportunity.
King Dushi had just attacked the great array here, and the night watchman had just killed him and left!
King Dushi was already dead, and no one would have thought that a King of Hell would dare to come here!
The King Coroner's sudden appearance gave the others at the dock a big fright.
The dock immediately fell into chaos again.
Whether it was the sea merchants or the soldiers guarding the dock, no one dared to jump out and block the way. Those who had the courage would have already been killed by King Dushi earlier.
Unlike the chaos of these people, the King Coroner's goal was very clear. Or rather, from the beginning, this moment was the opportunity he had been waiting for.
Just as King Dushi understood him very well, he also understood King Dushi very well.
He knew that King Dushi and King Biancheng would definitely play tricks in the operation, but he didn't know whether King Dushi would succeed.
He was just preparing for a rainy day and hiding in the target that King Dushi was most likely to run to.
If King Dushi succeeded in breaking out, he would just run after him.
If King Dushi was unlucky, he would take advantage of the opportunity left behind by King Dushi to escape.
At this moment, at this moment.
The King Coroner waved his hand and collected King Dushi's corpse, and rushed without hesitation towards the place where King Dushi had previously attacked.
He directly rushed towards that place with his entire body!
In the entire Gateless Hell, Yin Guan often took him with him, not because he trusted him the most, but because he had to keep an eye on him at all times, for fear that he would attack the other Kings of Hell in the organization.
He was ranked fourth in the Gateless Hell, not because he could only be ranked fourth, but because Yin Guan only allowed him to be ranked fourth!
He was still much stronger than King Dushi when he unleashed his true strength.
So when he used all his strength and erupted with all his strength, the terrifying power seemed to overturn the entire dock!
And his full force hit the faint light curtain of the great array without any fancy moves.
It was silent, because most of the power was absorbed by the great array.
A small opening appeared on the light curtain of the great array.
That small opening was where the blue sea and the blue sky were located, the path to freedom!
The King Coroner didn't even pause for a breath as he 'drilled' through it.
As soon as he drilled through, the power of the great array surged back and patched up the opening that had appeared. The entire process took less than a breath.
This meant that this degree of damage was completely within the limits of the great array, and it wasn't damaged in the slightest.
But the King Coroner still managed to escape!
Just as the opening on the light curtain closed up, a figure moved above the dock. The night watchman who had sensed the commotion here had arrived once more.
At an ordinary dock, the head of the night watchmen of the Jiang Dynasty had arrived twice in a short period of time.
As soon as he appeared, he immediately knew what had happened here.
And for the first time, he sighed like Yue Leng.
To him, the strength of the Gateless Hell was nothing. However, the disposition of this organization showed that they had the potential to bring calamity to the world.
King Songdi had shown him the frenzied determination of the Gateless Hell, and the escaping Coroner King had shown him the sinister cunning of the Gateless Hell.
If such an organization could grow, it would bring about endless calamity.
Without any hesitation, he stepped out of the formation and onto the sea. He wanted to find the escaping Coroner King as quickly as possible and kill him.
To the night watchmen of the Jiang Dynasty, killing him was a sign of respect.
A terrifying Divine Sense spread out in an instant and locked onto the fleeing figure almost immediately.
But the reaction of the world was also swift.
From the direction of the offshore archipelago, an extremely ferocious voice rolled over.
"Return!"
The sky shook, and the sea surged.
With a single shout, a tsunami was formed.
The surging tide was like a horde of giant beasts, surging back and forth between the heavens and the earth.
Return! Return!
This wasn't the land of Qi. Experts of this level weren't allowed to cross the border recklessly.
The night watchman paused for a moment before finally turning around.
This wasn't the time.
Besides, this wasn't his' responsibility '.
