Chapter four hundred and twentieth nine make a big deal
Li Jiuzhang is indeed a strange person. It can be said that there are not many people in the world.
The strength of a normal person after being transformed into a demon must have skyrocketed. There are not a few left-right practitioners who possess this secret technique, almost everyone is like this.
Only this guy turned into a bird after being transformed into a demon? An ordinary bird?
But Gu Cheng also had to admit that this guy was really a talent.
As long as it is controlled by a practitioner, there will be power fluctuations, just like the Gu insect used by Qiu Erniang to contact Gu Cheng last time. The power fluctuations of that thing are very small, and Gu Cheng will not notice it as long as he is not paying attention.
In fact, there will still be fluctuations.
And what Li Jiuzhang turned into was really a bird, without any power fluctuations belonging to a practitioner.
Although Jingyesi and the military were vigilant, they were not vigilant enough to kill a bird even if it fell on the wall.
Gu Cheng touched his chin and suddenly smiled at Li Jiuzhang: "Do you want to die or live?"
"Of course I want to live!"
Gu Cheng slapped his face: "If you want to live an easy life, just be a taint witness for me."
Li Jiuzhang looked confused: "What is a tainted witness?"
Gu Cheng said calmly: "To put it simply, Murong Hou snooped on my secrets and had evil intentions. Although you were working for him, you turned over the dark side at the critical moment and stood up as a witness to identify Murong Hou."
Hearing this, Li Jiuzhang's complexion suddenly turned pale.
"No! If I do this, Murong will kill me!"
In Leping County, Murong has almost no rivals. Every practitioner in Leping County has a fear of Murong from the bottom of his heart.
Gu Cheng said calmly: "Since you are unwilling to be a tainted witness, does that mean you are useless?"
Kou An on the side sneered and touched his cold blade, looking like a murderer.
Li Jiuzhang may not be afraid if Gu Cheng talks too much about threats and inducements.
But with Gu Cheng's nonchalant look now, it seemed that he would be killed immediately if he had no use value, and with Kou An watching him eagerly, Li Jiuzhang's psychological defense suddenly collapsed.
"I'll do it! Why don't I do it?"
One is to die later, the other is to die now. Based on the principle of living one more day, Li Jiuzhang agreed.
After giving instructions to his men, he went to wash the floor. Chu Youran, who was following along, was stunned when he saw this scene.
He asked with some uncertainty: "Mr. Gu, did you do things this way before?"
Chu Youran was already a little unsure which side Gu Cheng was on.
As a member of the Jingye Sect who was guarding the capital, Gu Cheng looked ruthless and did not take human life seriously, while Li Jiuzhang was pitiful and his psychological defenses were directly defeated.
This scene is as unconventional as possible.
Gu Cheng said calmly: "Of course it's not this style. In fact, I am still very reasonable and follow the rules.
However, you have to use extraordinary means to deal with extraordinary people. There is no need to follow so many rules when dealing with these evil cultivators who have done countless evil things.
They are evil, and you can only deal with them by being more evil than them."
Chu Youran nodded hesitantly. He felt that what he said seemed to make sense, but he also felt that something was wrong.
"By the way, Mr. Gu, are you really planning to attack the Murong family? After all, the other party is one of the seven aristocratic families, so be careful."
Gu Cheng narrowed his eyes and said solemnly: "The other party has already spoken to me. How can I bear to let the other party make the first move? It's better to strike first.
What about the seven aristocratic families? This is the capital, not Leping County, and the prestige of the Murong family cannot be established in the capital."
In fact, this time Gu Cheng is truly seeking revenge for his personal vengeance.
When he was in Nanyi County, that guy Murong Hou gave him a lot of trouble.
Although Gu Cheng was in charge of Nanyi County at that time, Murong Hou was actually the one who supported the geographical advantage. Behind him was the entire Murong clan, and Gu Cheng had nothing behind him.
And now that he has arrived in the capital, if he doesn't 'entertain' Murong Hou well, how can he be worthy of the fights and killings they had back then?
Of course, Gu Cheng did this to establish greater authority.
Feng Shisanlang does have some reputation among the left-handed practitioners, but no matter how famous he is, he is just a left-handed practitioner.
How can a leftist cultivator compare with Murong Hou, the white-clothed heir apparent of the Murong clan from one of the seven great aristocratic families?
At this time, in the southern region of the capital, Hong Dingshan directly punched a leftist cultivator into a blood mist. When he raised his head, the entire long street was filled with blood mist, which looked extremely terrifying.
For Hong Dingshan, who was born in the frontier army of Western Xinjiang, dealing with these deviant cultivators in the capital was really a piece of cake.
Compared with the bandits and thugs in the Western Frontier, these guys are just rats in the gutter at best.
"General Hong is very agile in his actions. Can you solve all these problems so quickly?"
Hong Dingshan turned around and saw Gu Cheng carrying Li Jiuzhang, he shook his head and said: "A bunch of incompetent things, their strength is really not that good.
But the tricky thing is their number. If we kill a group, another group will appear tomorrow.
Sometimes I really doubt that there is something wrong with these guys' minds.
Even if the elixir of immortality is really there, it’s not their turn to snatch it. Who do they think they are? They have no idea!”
Gu Cheng said: "So there is no way to continue killing like this. I have a new target here. After solving it, I can scare a large number of people."
"Oh? Who?"
"The heir to the Murong family in Leping, one of the seven great families, the 'Prince in White' Murong Hou!"
Hong Dingshan suddenly took a breath of cold air.
"How dare you kill the heir of the Murong family? You are crazy!"
Gu Cheng said calmly: "It's not about killing, even if it is to kill, it won't be our turn to kill him, but it is still okay to imprison him in a black prison and let the Murong family redeem him in the end.
Since you want to establish your authority, then choose someone with enough weight to establish your authority. Otherwise, you just choose an unworthy guy. Just like what you said, General Hong, if you kill one, another one will come."
In fact, if given the chance, Gu Cheng would not mind killing Murong Hou.
The two of them had clashed several times when they were in Nanyi County, and had fought life-and-death battles. Unfortunately, Gu Cheng was weak at that time and had always been passively defensive.
And now this is the capital, but it's Gu Cheng's home court, and it's his turn to take the initiative.
It's just that the timing is too sensitive now. If he really kills Murong Hou, it might cause large-scale riots in the capital. After all, the Murong family's influence is extraordinary.
The Inspection Department was established to suppress the current situation in the capital. As a result, you failed to suppress the situation and instead became more chaotic. So what use do you have?
Gu Cheng was not afraid of the Murong family, but he was afraid of being used as a scapegoat by his superiors.
"Besides, General Hong, if this situation is not stabilized as soon as possible, Your Majesty will have to blame you and me again.
What Jingyesi did was to offend people, and what you are doing now is also to offend people. How can it be so easy to get things done without offending people?"
Hong Dingshan was not an indecisive person. Hearing this, he nodded sharply and said, "Then just do what you say, Mr. Caregiver!"
Hong Dingshan is now the general of the Imperial Guard. With his qualifications, he will not be sent to ordinary frontier troops. Therefore, he is not afraid of being sent to Nanjiu County, so naturally he is not afraid of offending the Murong family.
This is the capital, not Nanjiu County, so Murong's influence is still limited.
In an inn in the east region of the capital, Murong's people directly booked the entire inn.
Not only people from the Murong family are here, but also some forces from Leping County, including Nanjiu County, have sent people here to take the front line. Basically, they are some young disciples of their respective families, mainly Murong Hou.
In the last family experience in Nanyi County, although Murong Hou could not be considered a loser, he could not be considered a winner either.
He who had always had no rivals in Nanjiu County was defeated by Gu Cheng, which also greatly reduced his prestige within the Murong clan.
And that's not all. Yu Yuanhai, the newly appointed governor of Nanyi County after Gu Cheng left, is an even more difficult character. Both his strength and his own methods are extraordinary, which directly squeezes him out of Nanyi County.
land.
Moreover, the time for family training had also come, and Murong Hou had to lead a group of people from Leping County back in embarrassment.
In short, this experience was a big blow to Murong Hou. In the next year, he stabilized his position in the family. The most important thing is that he successfully entered the master realm in the past few months. This can be regarded as completely stabilizing his position.
Living.
Moreover, among the entire younger generation in Leping County, he is the only one who has entered the realm of Grandmaster. With such a relationship, he can continue to be the leader of the younger generation in Leping County and lead everyone to come to the capital to take a stand.
At this time, in the largest room in the inn, in addition to Murong Hou, there were more than ten people inside, all of whom were from major forces in Leping County.
Murong Hou knocked on the table and asked, "Have all the things been sent out?"
A young man stood up and said with a smile: "We gave them all away. The commander of the Eastern Region, Jingyesi, is just a country bumpkin who has never seen the world. When we took out the things, each other's eyes went straight."
Anyway, he was able to get so many things just by providing us with some basic conveniences and some innocuous information, no idiot would be willing to do it."
Murong Hou said in a deep voice: "Don't be careless. The current Commander-in-Chief of the Eastern Territory came from the Qingshui Yamen. Although he is already a master, he has not seen much of the world, so he is easy to talk to.
If the previous commander-in-chief of the Eastern Region was here, you would be taking advantage of yourself by taking this thing out."
When he mentioned the previous commander of the Eastern Territory, Murong Hou couldn't help but reveal a stern look in his eyes.
Murong Hou has always been proud. He has no rivals within the Murong clan, nor in the entire Leping County. Even in the entire Nanjiu County, he has no rivals. Only in the hands of Gu Cheng, whether in terms of strength or ability, he has no rivals.
, he didn’t take any advantage at all.
For people like Murong Hou, if you don't take advantage, you will suffer a loss; if you don't win, you will lose. There is no such thing as a tie.
