NOVEL WEB Chapter 191
In a blink of an eye, three days passed.
At noon, Tieyun City was still bustling with traffic, and the bustling crowds filled the wide streets.
Suddenly, the crowd was in turmoil, as if driven by an invisible force, and consciously retreated to both sides, leaving a wide road.
There was an invisible pressure in the air, and everyone's eyes were focused in one direction, as if some great figure was about to appear.
After a while, a crisp sound of horse hooves came from far away.
A black and extraordinary dragon horse came slowly with steady steps.
This rare mount unique to Tianshui County is priceless, and you can tell at a glance that its owner is extraordinary.
The knight on the horse is a tall young man in black.
His appearance is not outstanding, but it is difficult to hide his sharp edge. Wherever he looks, everyone bows their heads and avoids, feeling awe.
On both sides of the street, the warriors who were originally arrogant and domineering were now as silent as quails, and they didn't even dare to breathe, for fear of angering this evil star.
The young man in black rode a dragon horse and slowly crossed the street under the attention of everyone.
It was not until his figure disappeared at the corner of the street that people dared to talk again, and the street gradually returned to its previous hustle and bustle.
"Hey, who was that man on the horse just now? He was so arrogant. Why are you all like mice seeing a cat?"
Beside a roadside noodle stall, a white-clothed swordsman looked at the direction where the young man in black rode away on horseback and asked the boss in confusion.
"Hush! Keep your voice down! Are you going to die?"
The noodle stall owner's face changed drastically as if he had heard some taboo, and he quickly lowered his voice to warn:
"How long have you not been to Tieyun City? You don't even know that gentleman?"
"He is the 'living devil' of our Tieyun City now. If you are not afraid of death, you can go and provoke him!"
"Living devil?"
The white-clothed swordsman frowned slightly when he heard this, and his doubts in his heart became even greater.
"Brother, you don't know..."
A chatterbox at the next table saw the white-robed swordsman's curious face, and couldn't help but come forward and tell the story vividly:
"Two days ago at noon, the Iron Tiger Gang and the Lion King had a conflict for some reason. The two gangs fought on the street, which disturbed the gentleman's interest in eating. Guess what?"
Speaking of this, the diner deliberately paused, and seeing that the white-robed swordsman was indeed interested, he continued:
"The living devil was furious and single-handedly rushed into the headquarters of the Iron Tiger Gang and the Lion King, killing the two gangs!
In less than an hour, the two gangs were completely wiped out from Tieyun City!"
"What?! How is this possible?!" The white-robed swordsman was shocked when he heard this.
You know, although Tieyun City is a mixed bag with many gangs, except for the City Lord's Mansion, the six major gangs are the most powerful, each occupying one side, and the power is complicated.
The Iron Tiger Gang and the Lion King Society were the best among them. They were uprooted by a single man in just one hour. This is unheard of!
"What about the two gang leaders? Are they dead too?" The white-clothed swordsman asked in disbelief.
"Isn't it!"
A short diner on the side took over the conversation, his tone full of awe for the "living devil":
"You don't know how terrifying the living devil is!
The leader of the Iron Tiger Gang, Li, is a master of the seventh level of innate body refining. His horizontal training skills make him invulnerable to swords and guns, and water and fire.
It is said that he once used a pair of flesh palms to fight against many people and killed seven innate masters in a row, but he himself was unscathed!
But such a man like an iron tower could not survive a single move in front of the living devil, and was beaten into a pool of meat with a punch!"
"And the leader of the Lion King Society, Zheng The leader is a master of formations who is proficient in Qimen Dunjia.
The headquarters of their gang was arranged by him like an iron barrel. It is said that even if it is besieged by the other five major gangs, it can hold out for ten days and a half.
But in the end, the living devil did not take his formation seriously at all, and rushed all the way. What maze, illusion, killing formation, and curse, all became decorations and had no effect at all!
In the end, even the people and the house were chopped in half by the living devil with one knife! "
Speaking of this, the diners who were listening around couldn't help but take a breath, their eyes full of fear and awe.
"Counting the Poison Spider Society that was wiped out more than a month ago, half of the six major gangs have fallen into the hands of the living devil."
The noodle stall owner rolled the dough skillfully and said in a low voice, with a hint of fear in his tone:
"Two of the remaining three gangs fled Tieyun City overnight, and the last one is said to beThe gang leader personally visited the living devil, and I don't know how much he paid to barely save his life. "
Listening to the descriptions of the people around him, the white-clothed swordsman was more and more shocked, his face full of confusion.
How come Tieyun City has changed so much in just a few months since he left?
"Is there no one in charge of the City Lord's Mansion?" The white-clothed swordsman couldn't help asking.
"Control? How? The City Lord Shen is said to be in seclusion and has no news so far!"
"And, I heard from the grapevine that..."
The short man lowered his voice mysteriously and said:
"City Lord Shen has long been possessed and died in the secret room where he was in seclusion! This entire Tieyun City will sooner or later be in the pocket of the living devil! "
-----------------
Gu Cheng naturally didn't know that rumors in the streets had already portrayed him as an ambitious man who coveted Tieyun City.
In fact, the reason why he destroyed the two gangs was purely to kill time and make up for the loss of life.
However, such a shocking event happened in the city, but the City Lord's Mansion remained silent.
This further confirmed his previous speculation: there must be some unspeakable conspiracy brewing in the deep courtyard...
Gu Cheng rode on a dragon horse and came to the restaurant he visited last time.
The diners in the restaurant hall were so scared when they saw the arrival of this "living devil" that they seemed to have encountered a ghost who wanted to take their lives. They dropped their silver and fled in a hurry.
In a blink of an eye, only Gu Cheng and the trembling, nodding shopkeeper were left in the huge restaurant.
"Sir, you...are you still the same? "
The shopkeeper leaned forward and asked cautiously, fearing that he might accidentally offend the evil spirit.
Gu Cheng nodded slightly and walked straight to his usual seat.
Soon, all kinds of delicacies were served like water, filling the entire table.
Since he slaughtered the gang last time because they were interrupted during their meal, how could ordinary people dare to get close to him when he was eating? This restaurant was also temporarily reserved by him in disguise.
Gu Cheng was not happy about this. I was also happy to be quiet, sitting alone in this spacious hall, savoring the food carefully.
However, today, this quietness was soon broken.
Da, Da, Da——
A sound of footsteps came slowly.
Two men in black, wearing black gauze hats and swords on their waists, walked slowly into the restaurant.
They seemed to be indifferent to Gu Cheng's notorious reputation. After scanning the restaurant, they found a seat and sat down...
