Chapter 879: Ghost Guard
The people from the He family also sneered.

The He family also suffered heavy losses, and they will never let the man with the bull-head mask go.

"Don't make things difficult for Master Shi. The Ke family is small and has little wealth. They can just bear it and let it go when someone comes to their door. Unlike the two of us, we will be laughed at by everyone in the capital!"

In the past, Elder Shi would have probably flew into a rage.

But now, he didn't move.

Because of the above meaning, he no longer has the heart to consider issues of personal honor and disgrace.

The existence of an entity that even the forces behind their Ke family find taboo means that they must handle the matter carefully.

As for the ridicule from the other two families, it seemed meaningless to him.

This is a matter concerning the survival of the entire family, it is not a joke!
However, Elder Shi soon discovered that the Qin family representative in front of him suddenly changed his expression.

Because a subordinate from the Qin family also ran over in a hurry and whispered something in his ear.

Elder Shi couldn't hear their conversation, but he could see with his own eyes that the Qin family's representative's expression suddenly changed.

"How, how could it be possible?!"

The Qin family representative was so shocked and panicked that he blurted out the answer.

That panicked look was exactly the same as the one Elder Shi had shown before!
Elder Shi suddenly thought of something and couldn't help but sneer.

You just laughed at me, now it's your turn!

"I wonder what news Master Qin You got just now, why did you lose your composure like that?"

Elder Shi spoke in a sarcastic tone, as if rubbing salt into someone else's wounds.

brush!
The Qin family representative immediately glared at him, his panicked mood turning into an angry state of humiliation.

The three parties were supposed to come together secretly to discuss major plans, but it turned out to be what it is now.

The He family was the only one left and couldn't help feeling depressed.

"You two, what do you mean now? Are you still going to cooperate?"

Originally, the Ke family was missing. Although the He family mocked them, they actually understood the other party's weight - they did not have a certain strength. It was just because they encountered the same thing, but they had no way to invite the two families out.

It is useless to just have common interests. The strong will only form alliances with the strong. They will never bow their heads and cooperate with an ant that can be crushed to death with one foot.

So even if he verbally belittled Elder Shi, both he and the Qin family were actually quite positive about Elder Shi and his family.

The He family representative's face had turned gloomy at this moment.

He was very unhappy about the two families' inconsistent attitudes.

"cooperate?"

Elder Shi looked at the representative of the Qin family and exchanged glances with him. Although neither of them could explain the reason for their confused expressions, they vaguely guessed each other's situation.

So they shook their heads almost at the same time.

"I still need to think about this. We'll talk about cooperation later."

"Me too."

After the two of them said this, the people in the He family were furious.

"you!"

Snapped!
The He family members slammed the table and were about to get furious when their subordinates suddenly came rushing in to report.

When Elder Shi and the Qin family representative saw this, they immediately looked like they had roughly guessed what the other side's subordinates reported. They crossed their arms in front of their chests, as if to say "keep on scolding".

As for the He family representative, after listening to his subordinate's report, his brain buzzed and he fell into a brief blank of consciousness. He almost doubted the authenticity of the news he heard.

The supreme power behind their He family actually wanted them to stop investigating the matter and even cover up all traces of it!
Why……

Why? ?

Where did that guy with the bull head mask come from? What was his background? Was he really that scary? Even the backers of his own family...

The people of the He family didn't understand, and couldn't even figure it out. When he looked up and saw Lord Shi and the representative of the Qin family trying to hold back their laughter, he became even more furious.

"Master He, do we still need the three of us to join forces now?"

"Master He, weren't you very angry just now? How are you now? Do you want to continue?"

When the He family representative heard these words, he was so angry that his lungs almost exploded.

His chest heaved violently as he glared at the two of them.

"You two!"

But soon, he reacted immediately.

His expression changed quickly as he blurted out the words.

"Wait! So you guys are also..."

"Shh-"

"There are some things you don't need to say."

Two people, one stopped him and the other spoke calmly, and they were almost broken by the representative of the He family.

They both installed it!
It was obvious that they were the first two to run away and dissolve the alliance!
Although none of the three spoke openly, they undoubtedly guessed each other's situation.

After a brief emotional outburst, they all sighed, with worried looks on their faces.

I originally thought that the man with the bull-head mask was just a minor character. If I killed the monster they raised, I would have to wait for blood debt to be repaid with blood.

In the blink of an eye, they needed to hide from the bull-headed masked man.

Even the forces behind the three of them warned them not to interfere in this matter anymore, which shows the power of the man with the bull-head mask.

"It's a turbulent time." Elder Shi sighed.

"Who says it isn't?"

"But why are we the only ones who are unlucky?"

The Qin family representative was still not convinced and still unhappy.

But the three of them had no choice. The alliance that they had originally agreed on was now dissolved. However, the three of them did have more contacts because of this, and they could communicate more privately in the future, so the trip was not in vain.

But what the three did not expect was that after they separated and returned to their families, they heard the latest news.

"Were the Ma family members also killed by the masked man? Is he also a demon?"

Elder Shi’s eyes widened.

Absolutely.

Or rather, crazy!
The organization of masked men has gone crazy!
It was bad enough that you killed the demons from our three families yesterday, but are you going to continue today?

Are they going to cause chaos in the entire capital? ?
Although they already knew the intentions of the forces behind the family today, he only thought that this was an attempt to calm things down on their side. He never expected that the other side was not prepared to stop at all!
"Interesting...it's getting interesting!"

Elder Shi couldn't help but want to laugh.

It would be really unpleasant if only the Ke family suffered after the whole incident.

But now, the situation is different. Everyone is suffering together and being tortured by the masked organization.

Just like calling out names one by one, the number of unlucky people is constantly increasing, and all the monsters that everyone raises have been affected. The Ke family's feelings about this matter are now completely different.

After all, the Ma family is much bigger than their Ke family.

If even the Ma family suffered losses, then what about their situation?

Now let's see how the Ma family reacts after suffering losses.

Anyway, the Ke family is not going to pursue the matter, and they are even going to help clean up the mess, remove the traces, and suppress public opinion...

Thinking about it this way, the Ke family is still in a pretty miserable situation...

Elder Shi sighed, reunited with the patriarch, and began to explain the situation.

……

呲! !

Blood splattered on Fang Yu's bull-head mask.

That is the blood of the demon.

[System prompt: Congratulations to the player for killing...]

As the system prompt sounded, the twisted corpse on the ground twitched twice and then became motionless.

Fang Yu glanced around and those people were immediately frightened.

"Run, run away!"

"Murder! Murder!" "No! There was a demon! The demon was killed! But murder was also committed!"

These people seemed frightened and spoke incoherently.

Fang Yu didn't bother to care about them. He put away his sword and jumped out.

“This is a thirteen-story building!”

Someone shouted, rushed to the window and looked down.

I saw a falling figure, and before it hit the ground, the air flow on its body shook, and with a few light taps, the person ran away.

After a few ups and downs, it disappeared.

What is this thing called...

Everyone turned around to look at the demon's corpse.

That is, in this tall building, when the battle took place, the man and the demon were fighting at the entrance of the corridor, otherwise everyone on this floor would have run away long ago.

"I remember someone called him Master Ma? Could it be someone from the Ma family?"

"The Ma family is a demon? A demon has entered the Ma family?"

"It doesn't matter... the demon is dead."

"To eliminate harm for the people... I have an impression of that masked man. Someone seemed to have spread the rumor yesterday that a masked man was active in the capital, killing demons one after another!"

"There's such a thing? Didn't it just pop up out of nowhere..."

Everyone was talking about it, but there was no real feeling and no concrete information.

However, just as Juemen has a very good reputation among the lower classes in Beijing.

Any work of slaying demons and eliminating evil will be recognized and approved by the public.

Therefore, the reputation of the masked man spread like wildfire.

For two consecutive days, he slew demons one after another, and all the ones he killed were children of wealthy families.

There is no regard for timing when attacking, and he will draw his knife in public.

So even if someone is deliberately covering up and disappearing, blocking the spread of information, and wants to suppress the matter, it is inevitable that news will leak out.

……

Changhong Street, second floor of Changhong Restaurant.

"Have you heard? Recently, a few crazy people appeared in the capital, wearing bull-head masks and killing people everywhere!"

"Is it so terrible? What are the people in the Yuhe Mansion doing? Is there no one to take care of such a big thing?"

"Foolish Underworld? They are so busy, I don't know what they are investigating, and they asked us not to spread rumors? Is that a rumor? My eldest brother was at the scene and saw with his own eyes that the masked man killed someone!"

“Tsk tsk tsk, it looks like this guy is also going for the Tianzi Wanted List. I heard that several people from the Tianzi Gang have fallen recently, and they are now making a new ranking.”

"I see. I was wondering where this ruthless person came from."

Listening to the whispers of the people at the table in the distance, Chong Zhan indifferently reached for the knife on the table, then slowly turned his head.

Just then, someone came up from the stairs. After looking around, he quickly came to his table and sat down.

“…I didn’t invite you.”

Chong Zhan said coldly.

"I am from the Feng family. The head of the family asked me to come."

While the man was speaking, he was also looking at Chong Zhan.

"..."

Upon hearing that it was someone sent by the head of the Feng family, Chong Zhan was obviously stunned for a moment, then slowly withdrew his hand from the hilt of the knife.

"what's up?"

"Recently, a troublemaker has emerged in the capital, and the head of the family hopes that you can help deal with it."

“…I haven’t taken on any work for many years.”

"This is a letter from the head of the family. The head of the family said...she believes in the strength of the former Lord Youwei."

brush! !

Knife light.

What a fast knife flash!
The moment the messenger felt a slight chill on his neck, the sharp blade was already on his neck.

The messenger's strength is not weak, not weak at all!

Because of this, he was even more impressed by the strength of the person in front of him.

As expected... of the former Ghost Guard!

Among the eight meridians of the imperial court, one of them is called Jiuyou Palace.

The Youwei are all under the name of Jiuyou Palace!

His strength and ability are beyond doubt.

But the interesting thing is that this person was expelled from the Jiuyou Palace many years ago.

Now, he can only be regarded as... an idle person!
Coupled with his drinking all day long, his health has been deteriorating over the years.

Even so, that kind of power is not something that ordinary warriors can match.

"She wants... me to help her get rid of that masked man?"

Chong Zhan was just drunk, he wasn't really oblivious to what was happening outside.

He can still find out about news like this that is a little hard to suppress.

All I can say is that the people above had a different initial approach to action than the later approach to suppressing the news.

It is denied that this kind of gossip will never spread, at least not to the ears of the general public.

"The master of the family just hopes that you can protect a young person from our Feng family."

Chong Zhan couldn't help but sneer when he heard this.

Junior?

What junior?
Young demon?

He took a big gulp of wine, grabbed the knife on the table and walked towards the corridor.

"Lead the way. Consider it a favor I owe her. From today on, it's all written off."

"……Yes!"

The messenger was just a nobody.

Even if he heard some news, he would definitely pretend not to hear it, otherwise he would be asking for trouble.

They said they were leading the way, but in fact the Feng family had already called the captive demons to wait in the carriage below the restaurant.

"This is..." The demon in the carriage was very honest.

It feels very comfortable in Feng's home and has no pressure to survive. It no longer wants to go out into the wild and compete with its own kind.

It can be said that, in a sense, it has been domesticated.

As long as human flesh is provided on time and in sufficient quantity every day, he doesn't mind staying with humans and doing some work for them.

Of course, if it does not have these supplies and treatments, it can transform into the most primitive demon at any time and use its demonic methods to seize the food it wants.

"Chongzhan."

Chong Zhan said indifferently, his cold eyes sweeping over the demon. Even if it is covered in human skin, a demon is still a demon.

Everything in the capital, everything about the powerful, all those methods and practices, all made Chong Zhan feel sick.

But he himself was caught in a spiral vortex and couldn't escape. He could only live in a daze and drunkenness.

"Master Chong, I am truly flattered to have you protect me this time."

The demon's attitude is very humble, but you can't believe a single bit of what the demon says.

In the human skin state, the demon's combat power is not high. Besides, this human skin still has a use, and it will not take action unless it is necessary.

So basically, it all depends on Chongzhan to protect its safety.

"Tell me about your plan. You're not just going to sit back and wait, are you?"

Chong Zhan took out a wine gourd from his waist, took a sip of the wine, and asked coldly.
