Extracting Billions Of Toxins And Tempering An Unsullied Body-Chapter 375 - Tong Shan of the Ten Thousand

If it was not for the alliance of the Hall of Flowing Light and the Ancient Sect, he would not have followed Mei Qianmeng to the Demon Region and almost died at the hands of that mysterious Demon Venerable!

Of course, it was also because of this that he had the opportunity to go to the Southern Continent and make some friends. He learned that there were actually four other continents in the world besides the Eastern Continent, but this did not mean that the grudge between him and the Hall of Flowing Light would be forgotten!

Looking at Gu Xi’s sudden change in expression, Song Qingluan was also very surprised, but she did not make a sound to stop him, because she knew that Gu Xi would not reveal such emotions for no reason. It was likely that they had not gotten along earlier. Moreover, she had previously heard from Yun Zhiyi that Gu Xi had returned to the Eastern Continent to seek revenge, and there was nothing else.

Compared to Song Qingluan’s surprise, Duan Hao was now terrified. He was still struggling with all his might, and the continuous suffocation had already caused his eyes to become somewhat unfocused.

“You… aren’t you afraid of me… The Hall of Flowing Light?” Duan Hao tried his best to spit out these words, and his voice was like the sound of a mosquito.

One had to know that Jingyang City was under the jurisdiction of the Hall of Flowing Light. Let alone in this city, even in other cities, no one would dare to treat him like this when he mentioned the name ‘Hall of Flowing Light’.

He had never expected that the Hall of Flowing Light, which he was usually proud of, would be so insignificant in front of this strange man.

“Afraid? Not only am I not afraid, but I also want to thank all of you.” Gu Xi chuckled and increased the strength in his hand. Following that, the extent of Duan Hao’s struggle began to decrease. It was obvious that he could not hold on any longer.

“Who… Are you?” Duan Hao muttered to himself. His heart was already filled with despair.

Gu Xi pulled him in front of her and whispered into his ear, “My name is… Gu Xi.”

These two short words caused Duan Hao’s pupils to suddenly shrink to the size of a needle’s tip. It was as if he had heard something terrifying.

However, before he could regain his senses, Gu Xi suddenly exerted force with his large hands. Following a crisp cracking sound, his neck was instantly snapped.

Duan Hao immediately stopped struggling. His arms drooped weakly, and his entire body showed no signs of life.

For a moment, everyone present was stunned on the spot. Numerous gazes filled with disbelief, shock, and astonishment fell on Gu Xi.

“He… killed Duan Hao?”

“Am I dreaming?”

“Does this kid want to die?!”

A moment later, exclamations sounded one after another.

Gu Xi did not pay any attention to the words of the crowd. Instead, he turned around and looked at the shop owner who was trembling with fear. He said indifferently, “Do you still want to sell this Snake Twining Vine?” 𝐟𝚛e𝐞𝙬𝗲𝒃𝓷𝒐𝘃e𝒍.c𝑜m

“Yes, yes, yes. Ah, no… I’ll give it to you!” The stall owner stuttered and immediately handed the Snake Twining Vine to Gu Xi with both hands.

After keeping the Snake Twining Vine in his bag, Gu Xi spoke indifferently, “I naturally won’t take advantage of this. Qingluan, pay up.”

Upon hearing this, Song Qingluan nodded her head lightly and immediately took out a bag of spirit stones and placed it on the stall. The stall owner trembled and did not dare to stretch out his hand to take it.

Gu Xi’s gaze fell on Duan Hao’s followers. Looking at their trembling expressions, he smiled. He said in a deep voice, “Go back and tell your Hall of Flowing Light’s bullsh*t Branch Master that I took his son’s life. If you have the ability, come and find me!”

As his words fell, those people were extremely puzzled. However, they did not have the time to think too much at this moment. With great difficulty, they managed to keep their lives and hurriedly left this place.

Looking at their disappearing figures, Gu Xi did not attack them. In his eyes, they were just a few insignificant ants. Killing them would dirty his hands. And what he wanted to kill was the so-called Branch Hall Master of the Hall of Flowing Light in Jingyang City.

Since he had come back, he knew that there would be a big battle between him, the Hall of Flowing Light, and the other sects and forces sooner or later. What he needed to do now was to exhaust their comprehensive strength as much as possible before that big battle.

Now that he had met the Hall of Flowing Light head-on, there was naturally no reason to let them go.

Thinking of this, Gu Xi did not plan to stay here. He immediately turned around and wanted to leave this place with Song Qingluan.

However, before the two of them could take a few steps, a majestic pressure suddenly enveloped the two of them and actually forcefully pressed them to the ground.

Gu Xi was slightly better off. On the other hand, Song Qingluan, who was at the side, staggered and almost knelt on the ground. Fortunately, Gu Xi reacted in time and a spiritual energy barrier enveloped the two of them, completely isolating this pressure from the outside.

“Eh?” Seeing that the pressure was easily dissolved, a slightly surprised and soft ‘eh’ sound rang out.

“I presume you are someone from the Thousand Treasures Pavilion, right?” Gu Xi’s expression didn’t change as he looked around. Everything seemed to be within his expectations.

He knew that he had created such a huge commotion here, and it would definitely attract the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion’s attention. After all, this was their territory.

He had brought Song Qingluan with him to leave first because he thought that he would be able to leave by luck. Now that he was stopped, it was reasonable.

“You actually killed people here. Do you underestimate the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion?!”

As a deep voice sounded, the crowd slowly parted. Many guards of the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion rushed in and surrounded the two of them.

Behind these guards, a man and a woman slowly walked out.

The man was middle-aged and had a strong build. One look and one could tell that he was not someone to be trifled with. The woman, on the other hand, had an extraordinary appearance and a slim figure that attracted people’s imagination. Her beautiful eyes were curiously sizing up Gu Xi and Song Qingluan.

When she noticed Song Qingluan, a hint of surprise flashed across the woman’s eyes. Clearly, she did not expect that there would be such a stunning woman among the people who were causing trouble here.

“It’s actually Pavilion Master Tong of the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion. I didn’t expect that even he would come personally.”

“Looks like this kid won’t be able to walk out of the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion today.”

“Who’s that woman? She’s so beautiful!”

Seeing the two of them appear, the crowd could not help but burst out in exclamations.

Obviously, everyone recognized this middle-aged man, and this middle-aged man was the Pavilion Master of the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion here, Tong Shan. f𝗿𝗲e𝒘e𝚋ｎ૦𝘃𝙚𝑙.com

“It’s indeed a little rude of me to kill someone here, but don’t worry, Sir. This matter will definitely not affect you in any way.” Gu Xi cupped his hands in apology, but he did not show any other expression.

Tong Shan was obviously surprised by Gu Xi’s attitude, but he still shook his head. He said in a deep voice, “Our Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion has never allowed any fighting, let alone killing people on the spot. This has seriously violated the rules of our pavilion. I’m afraid you’ll have to pay a corresponding price.”

Hearing that, Gu Xi raised her eyebrows and asked with interest, “What price?”

“It’s very simple. If you win, you can leave safely.”

Tong Shan pointed at himself. “If you lose, you’ll have to forfeit your life.”
