Chapter 430 Action
Overnight, dozens of people in the inner city died at home, all due to bone loss.

When the people outside the city learned about this, they became even more frightened.

There are martial artists who have trained in marrow to guard the inner city, but even so, those people still die due to strange things.

What about them? What should they do as unprotected people?
As for the inner city, the reaction to this was strange.

Those arrogant families in the past did not take any action when faced with the death of family members, as if the death had nothing to do with them.

Three days later, a carriage suddenly came out of the tightly closed palace.

Soon, Xiao Guanyu, who received the news, walked into the study with a look of surprise on his face.

As soon as he opened the door, he saw a hooded man sitting in the shadows.

"Let everyone get down."

After instructing the servants, Xiao Guanyu walked up to the man.

"Master Dong? How come you have time to come to my place?"

Dong De took off his hood, revealing his fat face with a smirk.

"Brother Xiao, I'm here to talk to you about something."

"What's the matter?"

"Brother Xiao, you asked that young master to come to me, what's the matter?"

Dong De stared at Xiao Guanyu and smiled bitterly.

Qin Zhiming's image instantly appeared in Xiao Guanyu's mind.

Young Master? Is that him? What does he want from Dong De? Could it be...

Xiao Guanyu narrowed his eyes and looked Dong De up and down.

“Master Dong, I don’t know what you heard.

There are some things you'd better think about before you say them."

"No, no, no, Brother Xiao, you misunderstood. I'm not here to call you to task."

Dong De quickly shook his head and waved his hands.

“That young master found me and asked me to cooperate with you.

He said that as long as I did so, I could remain the county governor.

Otherwise, I'll become like those people in the inner city."

Looking at Dong De's cautious look, Xiao Guanyu realized that he was not lying.

He said nothing and sat next to Dong De.

Dong De became anxious when he saw this and growled at him.

"Brother Xiao, everything I said is true!"

"Don't panic, Master Dong. I'm just curious about the identity of that young master."

Dong De looked around, then looked at the closed door, and leaned his head towards Xiao Guanyu.

“I can’t tell you, you just need to know that he’s very important.

The family behind him is related to the Immortal Sect."

Xiao Guanyu was silent, picked up the teacup on the table and took a sip.

A moment passed and he still didn't speak.

Dong De was a little anxious, and just when he was about to say something else, Xiao Guanyu spoke.

"What did he tell you?"

"He said you want to talk to the Immortal."

As soon as these words were spoken, Xiao Guanyu suddenly looked up and looked at Dong De.

His gaze was like a sharp sword, pressing against Dong De's throat, scaring him so much that he dared not move.

The next moment, Xiao Guanyu stood up and opened the door.

"Someone! Ask Master Gao to come over!"

Then, Teacher Gao walked slowly into the study.

Xiao Guanyu went straight to the point and pointed at Dong De.

“Master Dong wants to join us, but I’m a little worried.

What if Mr. Dong accidentally says something wrong outside... "

Before he finished speaking, Master Gao pulled out a finger-long dry branch from his waist and threw it at Dong De.

Dong De hurriedly reached out to catch it. When he looked carefully, he found that it was not a branch but a shriveled centipede.

"Swallow it."

Dong De was at a loss and looked at Xiao Guanyu in panic.

Xiao Guanyu smiled, stared into his eyes, and said nothing.

After hesitating for a long time, Dong De took a deep breath and swallowed the centipede in one gulp.

"Well, this way, he won't talk nonsense."

Hearing this, Xiao Guanyu immediately changed his attitude and opened his arms to hug the sweaty Dong De. "Master Dong, please take care of me in the future."

After discussing the details and seeing Dong De off, Xiao Guanyu entered the study again, followed closely by Master Gao.

"Isn't that person too talkative?" Master Gao frowned.

“No, he really wants to join my plan.

That's why he threatened Dong De to help me.

With Dong De's help, our plan will indeed be more secure."

Xiao Guanyu sat behind the desk, leaning back in the chair, facing the sky.

"Those people who died? We need to explain to the outside world, wasn't it us who did it?"

“That young master confessed to the murder through Dong De’s mouth for two purposes.

The first purpose is that he is proving through his actions that he is executing the plan in his own way.

The second purpose is that he wants to remind us that there is a strong person by his side.

If what we do displeases him, our fate will be the same as those people.

Right now, people in the inner and outer cities are in a state of panic, which is exactly what I want.”

"But those noble families will think that we killed those people."

Xiao Guanyu lowered his head and smiled at Master Gao.

"So what? Anyway, those who died were insignificant people, and it would not affect the interests of most families.

This is also the reason why no one has come to question him until now.

Besides, that young master is now on our side, so his killing is equivalent to our killing.

Judging from the current situation, he has a good sense of proportion, so let him continue to kill."

"okay, I get it."

Teacher Gao turned around and prepared to leave, but suddenly she stopped and looked at Xiao Guanyu.

"One more thing. Some weird and evil things have died in the outer city recently."

Xiao Guanyu frowned and looked at Master Gao: "A lot?"

“Not many, just some things of average strength.” Master Gao shook his head slightly.

"Perhaps it was done by some self-righteous martial artists. Don't worry about it. I will send someone to investigate."

At the same time, Dong De returned to the carriage and bowed to the person in front of him:
"Real person! Help!"

Qin Zhiming stretched out his left hand and grabbed Dong De's head.

"what!!!"

In an instant, Dong De heard a woman's scream, which made him dizzy.

"Okay, I've helped you with that thing."

Qin Zhiming patted Dong De on the shoulder, signaling him not to worry.

Dong De breathed a sigh of relief and quickly reported what Xiao Guanyu had said truthfully.

“Half a month later, let those things surround the city?

Well, you did a great job.”

Immediately afterwards, a warm current came out from Qin Zhiming's right hand which was placed on Dong De's shoulder.

Soon, the heat flow disappeared and Dong De suddenly felt refreshed.

He clenched his fists, and his body was surprisingly full of energy, a feeling he had only experienced when he was young.

“Some of the illnesses in your body have been erased by me.

For the next half month, just focus on working for Xiao Guanyu.

When this is over, you will still be the governor of Chaomu City."

Dong De was overjoyed and was about to thank Qin Zhiming, but when he looked up, he found that he had disappeared.

At the same time, in a house in the outer city.

Countless monsters with fingers of different sizes emerged from their ears, noses and mouths, and they struggled to slowly get up from the ground.

"Why kill me?!"

In front of him stood a scholar, and behind the scholar was a woman in a red robe with six arms outstretched.

"It's not me who wants to kill you, it's the families of those people you killed who want to kill you."

"But those people are just ordinary people. Don't the monsters you raise eat humans?!"

As the monster growled, the corners of Zhang Yuhuai's mouth slowly sank.

"She is my wife, she is not a monster."

Bang!
Before the monster could react, the six arms of the red-robed woman had torn it into pieces.

Looking at the corpse on the ground which was gradually turning into black ash, Zhang Yuhuai muttered to himself.

"In the name of the Immortal Lord Wuxiang Wuliang, I will fulfill the wishes of the believers."
