I am just a mortal, why do you all worship me as a saint?

Chapter 135: Senior Gu Gave Me a Chance to Show My Strength

"Young Master Gu, may I ask how my young lady is doing?"

As soon as they came downstairs, Bai Mo rushed up to them, asking anxiously.

Gu Heng shook his head and said, "He hasn't woken up yet, but he shouldn't be in any danger."

Upon hearing this, Bai Mo breathed a sigh of relief, but then revealed a resentful expression.

Bai Mo, needless to say, was furious to see the young lady he had watched grow up so closely, only to find her so badly injured.

Even Bai Chong's face was gloomy.

Although Bai Feier had fallen out with her family, and he was responsible for bringing her back, this matter was ultimately still the Bai family's own affair. But now, Bai Feier is injured like this!

Regardless of who did it, this is a slap in the face to the Bai family!

Although Old Gu was uninvolved and had nothing to do with the two women, he was able to break through his cultivation level with Gu Heng's help, so he stayed here without hesitation to see what Gu Heng planned to do and what help he could offer.

If anyone dares to harm his disciple like this...

If we were to follow the old man's past habit of "slaying demons with a dry brush," then the culprit would not be appeased until he was cut into hundreds or thousands of pieces.

"Young Master Gu, Young Master Gu!"

Just then, shouts came from the front yard, drawing everyone's attention.

It is Feng Wuxin and Aunt Yuan.

They arrived in a great hurry, as if they knew some news. Before they even entered the door, they saw the "blood trail" stretching from the far end of the street, and their hearts sank immediately.

Oh no, something's happened.

Upon entering the front yard and seeing that the bloodstains on the ground had disappeared, Feng Wuxin felt a glimmer of hope return to her heart.

"President Feng? May I ask what brings you here?"

Upon seeing Gu Heng approach, Feng Wuxin anxiously inquired, "Young Master Gu, may I ask if Miss Qin is alright?"

Her tone was somewhat flustered.

Upon hearing this, Gu Heng's expression hardened further. He shook his head and said, "That girl was seriously injured. I just treated her, and she is currently recuperating."

Although Feng Wuxin was somewhat prepared, she still felt a little sad upon hearing the news.

Too late! Feng Wuxin immediately mobilized all the spies and informants employed by Jinhuang Baoxing to investigate from multiple sources, compare intelligence, and even have the unexposed insiders of Qingfeng Baoxing risk their lives to gather information. Only then did she finally confirm that Qingfeng Baoxing had actually invited two Blood Shadow Envoys!

Blood Shadow Envoy, this is the most elite assassin of the Blood Shadow Tower, and his cultivation is quite strong!

Putting aside the question of how Shang Xiong, with his limited resources, could afford to hire an assassin of this caliber, the fact that they've come means trouble is inevitable.

Now Feng Wuxin knows that she has arrived too late.

But it's not too late.

Although Qin Yiyao was seriously injured, she still returned. With Young Master Gu's protection, the Blood Shadow Envoy will definitely not be able to achieve anything again.

"Does President Feng know something?"

Gu Heng could tell that Feng Wuxin was rushing to him in such a hurry because she must have found out something! Admittedly, Gu Heng knew that only a cultivator could injure Bai Feier like this, but he didn't plan to think about that now. He couldn't avenge his disciple himself, so he would ask someone else to help him!

This matter won't just end like this!

Feng Wuxin didn't hide anything and directly revealed all the information she had obtained.

She even knew that there was another Blood Shadow Envoy who was currently staying in Qingfeng Treasure Shop, while another was responsible for going to assassinate him!

After listening to what Feng Wuxin said.

"Hmph! So the Qingfeng Treasure Shop in Yunling City has become this audacious!"

Bai Mo was furious, and Bai Chong's face was also ugly, because they never expected that Bai Feier was not the target, but Qin Yiyao. The Qingfeng Baoxing and Xueyinglou actually dared to attack this senior's beloved disciple!

They really haven't died before. "Hmph, this mere branch of Yicheng Baoxing dares to do such a thing..."

The old man stroked his beard and sneered.

He was not a member of the Sunflame Dynasty, but a powerful rogue cultivator who had traveled the world. He naturally knew the strength of the Azure Wind Treasure Company, but that was only because the head office was very strong. This small branch in Cloud Spirit City was simply not worth mentioning!

But this nobody, whom he wouldn't even give a second glance, hired an assassin and injured Gu Heng's beloved disciple...

"...Young Master Gu, are you alright?"

Feng Wuxin hesitated for a moment.

Unlike the others who were either angry or disdainful, Gu Heng appeared relatively calm, as if the bloodstains on the ground that had not yet been cleaned up were not left by his most favored disciple.

But it was precisely his calmness that frightened everyone.

"President Feng, are you sure it was assassins hired by Qingfeng Baoxing?"

Gu Heng spoke, and when he looked up and met Feng Wuxin's gaze, he felt a chill run through his body.

"I am absolutely certain!"

Even if you gave her a lot of courage, she wouldn't dare lie about something like this.

"Very well, Qingfeng Baoxing will have to pay the price."

Gu Heng's indifferent voice seemed to contain a divine power that could freeze people's blood; it was devoid of any emotion, sending chills down everyone's spines.

The senior is very angry!

Very serious consequences!

The world of Yunling City is about to change!

but.

Gu Heng was very clear-headed.

Qingfeng Baoxing must repay blood with blood. But he's just a mortal running a clinic, how can he possibly fight against the enormous Qingfeng Baoxing?

They can afford to hire monks as assassins, but can he?

Gu Heng could also choose to refine more deadly poisons and then become a suicide bomber, but then who would take care of Qin Yiyao?

The only person they could turn to for help was the Golden Phoenix Pharmacy.

Their cooperation is a win-win situation.

Now that Qin Yiyao is seriously injured, Jinhuang Baoxing is also a party with a stake in the matter. Given Gu Heng's opinion of Feng Wuxin, she would naturally not sit idly by. Otherwise, why would she rush over to inform him that Qingfeng Baoxing has hired assassins?

Although the notification came a little late, it finally arrived.

"President Feng, I would like to ask you to do this again, after all, I..." Since Feng Wuxin was present, Gu Heng did not delay and spoke directly.

He didn't finish speaking, but he knew that Feng Wuxin could understand his difficulties, and Gu Heng also felt somewhat powerless.

When ordinary people encounter such a situation, there is nothing they can do.

Feng Wuxin's brow twitched slightly.

Because she thought that Gu Heng might, in a fit of anger, directly destroy the Qingfeng Treasure Shop.

However, is he planning to give himself a chance to prove himself?

Is this to prove her ability?

"...Please rest assured, Young Master Gu, I will definitely avenge Miss Qin!"

Feng Wuxin didn't mince words and readily agreed.

She knew that Gu Heng was willing to give her this opportunity because he valued her abilities. She not only had to accept the task, but she had to do it well! "Okay, thank you, President Feng."

Gu Heng stood up and cupped his hands in greeting.
