Gusu is located in the prosperous eastern region of Dashun, with countless commercial exchanges, and can provide a large amount of money and grain to the court every year.

After nightfall, the prosperity not only remains unchanged, but becomes even more prosperous.

Here, as long as you have money, you can find all the happiness in the world.

But on the other hand, a prosperous economy also breeds all kinds of filth and dirt.

There are numerous gangs in the city, and they are deeply intertwined. There are countless people operating in shady places.

Even if the government wants to intervene, they dare not make a big move, because you never know whether a gang is the black glove of a wealthy noble family, or even has someone in the court backing them up.

Therefore, Xu Feng's sudden appearance at that time seemed quite uninhibited.

He doesn't care at all whether you are a powerful force maintained by a wealthy family in the city or who is behind you.

Once you are targeted, you will definitely end up dead.

However, at this moment, he had just left the Feng family residence and was walking alone and leisurely on the bustling streets of Gusu.

He would stop from time to time to buy a meal or watch a street opera performance, behaving like an ordinary person out for a night stroll.

He has always been cautious in doing things. Even if he has the Human Emperor Banner as his trump card, he will still investigate things to be absolutely sure before taking action.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have to hide in Ling Longfeng's house and suffer bullying every day.

After walking and stopping along the way for more than an hour, we arrived at the most prosperous Dongcheng Night Market.

Just as he was about to parade through the streets to see if there was anyone setting an ambush, he saw a little beggar with both legs broken struggling to move up to him.

The little black guy pulled at his trouser legs, raised his head and begged, "Sir, can you give me some money?"

Xu Feng looked at the child and squatted down. He took out a string of copper coins from his sleeve and handed them into his broken bowl.

"It's getting late, go back and rest early."

The child didn't care whether he listened or not, he just kept kowtowing to him and thanking him, then supported himself with his hands and disappeared into the dense crowd.

Looking at his disappearing little figure, Xu Feng's eyes suddenly became much more sinister.

He has always been cautious and never fights an unprepared battle, which is why he has not been arrested by the court and the Six Gates so far.

Therefore, he had already planned tonight's action.

Through investigation some time ago, we learned that a gang called Wild Dog Hall was circling this night market.

Unlike other gangs in the city who like to collect merchant fees on their territory, the interests involved in the night market are extremely huge, and the Wild Dog Gang is not qualified to participate.

So they took a different approach and broke the legs and feet of the children they lured into the gang, or gouged out their eyes and cut out their tongues.

Then they are thrown into the streets and disguised as beggars, deceiving kind-hearted passers-by to do good deeds in order to support their gang members.

If the beggars failed to collect enough money that day, they would not only be deprived of food and drink, but might even be beaten.

If this continues, life expectancy will often be only a few years!

There are many gangs in Gusu City, and the territories have long been divided up. It is impossible for beggars without support to survive here.

Therefore, it can be basically concluded that the child just now was the child thrown out by the beasts in the Wild Dog Hall to beg.

Xu Feng licked the corner of his dry mouth, and a hint of bloodthirstiness appeared on his usually weak body.

This Wild Dog Hall is perfect for sacrifice!

After circling the night market a few more times and finding no signs of an ambush, Xu Feng boldly turned into a dark alley.

He changed his usual restrained and elegant style and strode towards the deepest part of the alley.

While no one was paying attention, he took out a white evil ghost mask from his arms and put it on his face.

At the same time, on his back, wisps of black mist emerged from the tattoo of the Human Emperor Banner, forming twisted and resentful ghostly shadows, which disappeared into the darkness after a moment.

These indescribable creatures were the souls that he had killed before and were sucked into the banner. There were only about ten of them.

Although their number is small, they can use the cover of night to tip him off.

Or wait until he is in danger and provide timely support.

It gave him the feeling that he was a one-man army.

With the help of these ghosts, he quickly found the Wild Dog Hall.

Under two dim lanterns in front of the courtyard gate, four gang members were drowsy and were suddenly awakened by the sound of Xu Feng stepping on water.

The man was wearing a strange mask and holding a drawn sword in his hand, looking like he had bad intentions.

The four of them were startled at once and drew their knives from their waists to be on guard.

"Who?!"

Xu Feng didn't say anything, he just stood there and tilted his head to look at the four people. His behavior seemed extremely strange to the other side.

Then he suddenly rushed forward, and with his light footwork, he covered a distance of nearly fifteen feet in just a few light steps.

While the four gang members were shouting warnings, they quickly came up to one of the men and beheaded him with a single blow.

The headless corpse fell down, gushing out a huge amount of blood, and at the same time, a wisp of imperceptible black mist from the corpse rushed towards Xu Feng's back.

Xu Feng's strength also quietly increased as he attacked the next gang member.

He had no intention of fighting any longer, and with a few swipes of his sword, he had already rushed into the yard.

At this time, the people in the Wild Dog Hall who had received the early warning had already walked out of the house with knives, guns, sticks and clubs, and were standing in a row in front of him, ready for battle.

But to Xu Feng, this scene seemed quite unusual.

After all, he now has a rather notorious reputation in Gusu City, especially among the major gangs.

Not to mention the big gangs, let's take the small gangs like the Wild Dog Hall as an example. When they find out that the person coming is him, the "Ghost Face Man", they often show their cowardly side.

But at this moment, Xu Fengcong could not see any fear on the faces of these gang members, but rather... teasing?

Could it be that my outfit wasn't obvious enough, so they didn't recognize me as the Ghost-Faced Man?

Just when he felt that this place was full of weirdness, the crowd suddenly parted, and a fat figure carrying a ring-handled knife slowly walked out.

"Oh my! It's the dead of night, and I thought it was that distinguished guest who arrived. Looking at your appearance, could it be that ghost-faced man?"

Xu Feng did not respond, his body was tense, and he was ready to escape.

However, before he could take any action, he heard the sound of large numbers of footsteps coming from the direction behind him.

Soon, the shining blades and torches had surrounded the small courtyard completely.

Looking at the official uniforms these people were wearing and their silent style, it was obvious that they were not the same kind of people as the Wild Dog Hall gang members who only knew how to fight and be brave.

Six doors!

Suddenly Xu Feng's heart sank to the bottom.

Damn, I’ve been tricked!

We clearly didn't find any signs of an ambush during the previous investigation, and the ghosts sent out as whistles didn't give any warning. So where did this group of people come from?

Seeing him looking like he was facing a great enemy, the smile on the fat face of the Wild Dog Hall leader became even more distorted.

"Ah, you, the ghost-faced man, came here to take my head today, why are you standing there motionless?"

"Or was it because he saw the officials outside the door and was so frightened that he couldn't move?"

While he was making noise, three figures came behind him.

The leader among them was a middle-aged man wearing the purple clothes of the Six Gates and had a serious face.

Standing to the right of the middle-aged man was a young man holding a sword in both hands. His appearance and features were surprisingly similar to Zuo Jincheng, whom Xu Feng had met once before.

As for the last position on the left, it is a pretty girl in gorgeous clothes, with a great figure and appearance, and a face full of arrogance and domineering.

Xu Feng was shocked when he saw her - Feng Yumian!

Why is she here?

Could it be that my identity has been exposed, and she was the one who leaked the information to the Six Gates?

Feng Yumian didn't even glance at him, and kicked the Wild Dog Hall leader in the thigh: "Get out of here!"

She herself was not a warrior, so her kick had no power, but it made the noisy Wild Dog Hall leader roll on the ground several times.

"Auntie, please spare me! Auntie, please spare me!"

This is the power of the Feng family!

The young man standing to the right of the middle-aged man teased, "Sister Yumian, if my sister-in-law saw you like this, I'm afraid she would ridicule you again."

Feng Yumian sneered, "When did my eldest sister become your sister-in-law? Have you forgotten that my sister's husband is still that loser Xu Feng? If your eldest brother Zuo Kuncheng was really capable, why didn't he break into my house and chop him down and take his place? Now he can only have an affair outside!"

The young man's tongue was obviously not as eloquent as hers, and his expression changed again and again after being choked by a word.

He then retorted, "Didn't you ask your guard to push him into the water last time, and he didn't drown? Instead, not long after, the guard died in your house. Isn't that ridiculous?"

Feng Yumian's face turned completely gloomy, and she turned to look at Xu Feng, who was trapped in the yard and had not spoken a word.

The inexplicable death of the security guard a few months ago made her think that her brother-in-law had finally lost his patience and exploded.

But then he thought, that loser Xu Feng was just a skinny scholar, and was no match for the guards who had martial arts skills.

It was later discovered that the guard died of poisoning, and the cause of death was consistent with the modus operandi of the ghost-faced man who appeared in the city a few months later.

This eventually led her to point the finger at the Ghost-Faced Man.

It’s not that she had any feelings for the security guard, it’s just that this incident made her feel embarrassed.

That's why there was an ambush of the ghost-faced man tonight.

"You were the one who killed my guard, you bastard?" She held her head high, looking down on everyone as always.

Xu Feng still stood there, looking at her through the mask.

It seems that their identities were not exposed, but it was just a series of coincidences that brought the two together in this place.

At the same time, the captain of the Six Gates also stood up, holding a roll of documents in his hand.

He read aloud, "Ghost Face, you have disregarded the laws of Dashun and murdered seventeen people in Gusu City within six months. Your methods were brutal and all for personal gain. Do you acknowledge your guilt?"

Xu Feng smiled.

The Six Gates knew better than him who he had killed, but now they turned around and joined forces with beasts like the Wild Dog Hall to capture him. It was really ironic.

Although it was difficult for him to escape under such heavy siege, it was not without hope.

But now, he doesn't want to escape!
