Starting from a short stick, becoming the master of the universe

The next day.

Early in the morning, Gu Changkong received a call from Yang Chun, and then he rushed to the laboratory building in a hurry.

When I arrived at a room on the second floor, I saw that the room was empty.

The several spiritual masters who were originally stationed here have disappeared.

"Supervisor, I tried to contact them, but without exception, their phones were turned off. I tried to contact their families, but they also said they did not go home last night." Yang Chun's face was extremely solemn.

He didn't think that these people would leave without saying goodbye. There was only one explanation for the current situation: something happened!
But these few people are already the strongest defense force here, and there are only a few people in the outer city who can kill them without anyone noticing.

Gu Changkong's eyes were burning with anger and heartache!

This is all his hard work! It took him many years to train these people.

After waiting for a month or so, he entered the inner city, intending to bring these people with him as his confidants.

As a result, it was all gone overnight!
"Just go and do your thing first."

He waved.

"Yes, supervisor."

Yang Chun understood and left.

Gu Changkong took out his cell phone and called Gu Changjun.

"Hey?"

After a while, Gu Changjun's voice rang out on the phone, "Third brother, what's the matter? Why are you calling me so early in the morning?"

"You are still playing dumb in front of me at this time?" Gu Changkong suppressed the anger in his heart, "What did we say at that time? That incident should be treated as if it never happened, but what about you?"

"Third brother, what are you talking about?" Gu Changjun pretended not to know.

"What am I talking about?"

Gu Changkong gnashed his teeth and said, "Did you send someone to my place again last night to kill Jiang Cheng?"

"Three, you can eat whatever you want, but you can't say whatever you want."

Gu Changjun chuckled.

"I am the most trustworthy person. Since I promised you, Third Brother, that matter will end here and I will not go back on my word. If Third Brother does not believe me, I can swear to heaven."

Anyway, this matter was not instigated by him, so it doesn’t matter whether he swears or not.

Gu Changkong sneered, "Do you think I don't know that your mother sent someone here? Do you dare to say that this matter has nothing to do with you?"

"Third brother, if you really think so, then I can't help it."

Gu Changjun shrugged.

"Okay, Third Brother, I have something else to tell you, so I won't talk to you anymore. Let's talk again when we have the chance."

After saying that, he hung up the phone without waiting for Gu Changkong to say anything.

"Humph, you don't even know your own weight, but you start questioning me."

He sneered, his eyes full of disdain.

As for whether Gu Changkong will tell his father about this, don't worry.

Because his mother had already made arrangements, even if Gu Changkong took out Huang Xing's body, the outcome would most likely be nothing.

Gu Changkong was filled with grief and anger.

Things turned out like this thanks to Gu Changjun!
Not only did Jiang Cheng leave, but several other people he had worked so hard to train also died.

By then, even if he entered the inner city, he would be alone.

After standing there and thinking for a while, he still called Gu Changlin. Although he knew that doing so might not make much sense, it was better to do something than to do nothing.

The time has come at night.

Gao Ling brought his men and counted the pills that Jiang Cheng had made in a day.

There are four furnaces in total, with forty top-level awakening pills.

Twenty of them represent the cost of medicinal materials.

As for the other twenty pieces, according to the agreement, each party took half.

The ten coins belonging to Jiang Cheng will be used to repay debts. With the current daily income of 10 million, it will probably take more than a month to pay off the debt completely.

Of course, Jiang Cheng was also cautious and called Gu Changkong during this period to ask him if he had received the money.

"Brother Jiang, thank you for your hard work."

After putting away the pills, Gao Ling smiled and said, "Are you free? If you are, can we chat?"

Jiang Cheng nodded.

The two found a meeting room and sat down.

Gao Ling took the initiative to pour a cup of tea for Jiang Cheng, and asked with a smile: "You have been here for a few days, how do you feel?"

"pretty good."

Jiang Cheng smiled slightly.

"Is it really all right? If you have any questions, be sure to speak up, don't be embarrassed."

"It's pretty good. To be honest, it's a bit boring to be refining pills all day. I finally got into the inner city area. It would be nice if I could go out for a walk and a stroll." Jiang Cheng said after thinking for a while.

"normal."

Gao Ling nodded, "It's really boring to be in the alchemy room all day, but Brother Jiang, I have to tell you something."

His face turned serious.

"Did they find me?"

The smile on Jiang Cheng's face also froze a lot.

"Yes," Gao Ling sighed, "Just last night, someone sneaked into Dinghu Community and killed all the spiritualists who were there. The killer was very powerful and did not alert anyone from beginning to end. We guess that it was most likely done by Gu Changjun, or in other words, by Gu Changjun's mother Bai Yan. Only she could send out such a master."

At this point, he looked at Jiang Cheng deeply and said, "Brother Jiang, if you were still there last night, the result would probably be no better than those spiritualists."

"Yes."

Jiang Cheng also nodded repeatedly.

"I have to thank Brother Changlin for all this. If it weren't for him, how could I still be sitting here and talking to you, Brother Gao? I would probably be a corpse on the ground."

Hearing this, Gao Ling nodded in satisfaction, but said, "Brother Jiang, you are too polite. It is your ability that makes Changlin take a liking to you. If it were an ordinary person, how could he be asked to come in person? Moreover, Brother Jiang, you have performed very well in the past few days. The other alchemists here are still a little behind you."

It seems that using ten medicinal materials to refine a top-grade awakening pill only requires a hand, but in reality, it is not really the case.

After all, the cost is there, and one must ensure that there are five top-level Awakening Pills in a furnace of pills to avoid losses. The other five, even if they are high-level Awakening Pills, can only make more than one million. In terms of cost-effectiveness, it is not as good as using two portions of medicinal materials to refine high-level Awakening Pills.

"Brother Jiang, you'd better not go out for the next period of time. Since Bai Yan and the others have already known that you are here, they will definitely take some actions in secret. They can't do anything to you if you are here, but if you go out, it's not certain. Besides, you are a newcomer, and this inner city is not as peaceful as it seems. In fact, many places are also undercurrents, and even dangerous."

Jiang Cheng's ears twitched.

"Brother Gao, what do you mean?"
