Under One Person: Please Call Me Golden Flash

Chapter 240 The Sudden Smell of Blood
Xiaolong Street in Chongqing is a very bustling commercial street.

Although the outside world is in complete chaos, this place is relatively peaceful and more prosperous than other war-torn cities, thanks to the Chongqing government.

"Number 66 Xiaolong Street, this should be it, right?"

Looking at the sizable workshop in front of him, Zhao Zhen couldn't help but marvel at the immense wealth of Tiangongtang once again.

Come to think of it, how could someone who has a skill possibly lack money these days?

Especially considering the level of Tiangongtang, their weapon-refining technology is probably already at the top level in the entire world of supernatural beings.

How many people in each industry can actually reach the top?

While thinking about this, Zhao Zhen gently knocked on the workshop door.

dong dong dong~
Hello? Is anyone there?

After a long time, there was still no response from inside.

Zhao Zhen frowned and knocked on the iron gate again.

"Is the address wrong?"

Zhang Huaiyi asked with some doubt.

"No, it's No. 66 Xiaolong Street, right here. Look at the house number."

Furthermore, besides Tiangongtang, who else could have built such a large workshop?

Just as Zhao Zhen and Zhang Huaiyi were wondering if they had come to the wrong place, Lu Huizhong sniffed the air and frowned slightly.

Can you smell anything?

"smell?"

Zhao Zhen also sniffed, but couldn't smell anything.

"No."

"It smells like blood, though very faint, but it is definitely the smell of blood."

As an assassin of the Tang Clan, Lu Huizhong deals with blood all year round, so she is naturally more sensitive to the smell of blood.

Upon hearing this, Zhao Zhen's expression changed drastically.

This time, he didn't knock on the door. Instead, he leaped over the wall and jumped inside. Zhang Huaiyi and Lu Huizhong quickly followed.

As soon as he entered the workshop, Zhao Zhen's pupils shrank sharply, because what came into his view were the corpses on the ground!

"This……"

When Zhang Huaiyi arrived later, he was also stunned and stood there dumbfounded.

Lu Huizhong extended two fingers and gently placed them on the corpse's neck, quickly making a professional assessment.

"He hasn't been dead for long."

"Hirayama!"

Just then, Zhang Huaiyi's low growl immediately drew their attention.

Zhang Huaiyi was staring intently at a corpse on the ground. Judging from his shouts, the corpse must be one of the people Zhao Zhen was looking for.

"Sister Lu, can you determine who did it?"

"It's hard to say, but judging from the bloodstains on the ground, the fight is probably not over yet."

"Chase!"

Without the slightest hesitation, Zhao Zhen immediately had Lu Huizhong lead the way, following the trail of blood all the way from the factory.

In the suburbs, two people, one tall and one short, were fleeing for their lives. Behind them, a dozen dark figures, like demons chasing after their souls, followed closely.

"Zhao Tianhai! Ma Benzai! You are disciples of the Tiangong Hall, yet you have sworn brotherhood with the Quanxing demons. Your crimes are unforgivable! Surrender now!"

"I'll capture your mother!!!"

Zhao Tianhai roared, the scene of his brother Zhao Pingshan's tragic death still vivid in his mind, how could he not be furious.
"What on earth is going on? Wasn't it supposed to be Chairman Zhao from Na Du Tong coming to see us today? Where did these guys come from?!" Ma Ben gritted his teeth and reached out to touch the prayer beads on his chest, which were protective magic items he had made before.

If it weren't for the protection of this protective magic item, he would probably have died a miserable death at the hands of these people, just like Zhao Pingshan!

"Damn it, how did they even get in here?"

Even now, Zhao Tianhai still can't figure out how these people bypassed the spies at the workshop entrance and appeared directly in front of them.

If these people hadn't caught them off guard, how could their younger brother, Pingshan, have died so tragically at their hands before he could even activate his protective magic item?!

"Brother Hai, I think I'm running out of strength..."

Ma Ben began, panting.

He was merely a weapon refiner, relying entirely on the magical artifacts he crafted. Naturally, his cultivation of life force was far inferior to that of other extraordinary individuals.

Moreover, having just experienced a fierce battle in the workshop and now being chased for two hours, his energy and stamina were naturally starting to run out.

"Benzai, hold on! We absolutely cannot lose to these sons of bitches!"

Zhao Tianhai hissed angrily in a low voice.

"Hmph! You can't escape. You'd better come back with us!"

As the people behind them drew closer and closer, despair began to fill Zhao Tianhai's eyes.

Could it be that these three brothers are really going to lose their lives here today?

Just when Zhao Tianhai was almost resigned to his fate, a golden light suddenly shone in front of them.

bang bang bang! ! !
Almost in the blink of an eye, the black-clad men who had already pressed forward were kicked away.

"Not bad, I made it in time."

As a leisurely voice slowly rang out, both Zhao Tianhai and Ma Benzai turned their gazes toward the tall, slender figure in front of them.

"Are you two alright?"

"This golden light... Are you Chairman Zhao, the all-knowing boss?"

"Ah."

Zhao Zhen nodded, then turned his head back to look at the dozen or so men in black in front of him.

"Those techniques you just used... you must be from the Shu Zi Sect and the Wang family, right?"

Upon hearing this, Zhao Tianhai and Ma Benzai's pupils suddenly contracted sharply.

"The Wang family?!"

It's not surprising that the people from the Shuzi Sect would hunt them down, after all, the sect leader Hu Tu was a mad dog who would bite the "Thirty-Six Thieves" on sight.

But what about the Wang family?

Since the sworn brotherhood was exposed, the Wang family has never personally gone to hunt down the thirty-six of them!
"That's it! I was wondering how those bastards managed to sneak in so quietly. They used the Wang family's divine magic!"

Zhao Tianhai, slow to realize what was happening, finally came to his senses.

"It's Jin Xiao Lei Jun! Retreat immediately!"

Upon recognizing Zhao Zhen's identity, the men in black did not hesitate at all and immediately turned to flee.

But just then, a bolt of lightning struck the ground in front of them without warning.

"Run? Hmph! I'd like to see where you can run to!"

Upon hearing this voice, both Ma Benzai and Zhao Tianhai's eyes lit up, and a hint of joy flashed involuntarily in their eyes.

"It's Brother Huaiyi!"

The leader of the men in black glanced at the scorched ground beneath his feet, a hint of apprehension flashing in his eyes.

"This is... the thunder magic of the Celestial Master's Mansion?!"
