The villains are redeemed, and the heroines cry and beg for forgiveness.

Gu Ran's gaze sharpened, and he strode towards the Taifeng Martial Arts Hall.

The information I just got from that gatekeeper is that Zhang Shenghe, the head of the martial arts school, is in seclusion in the innermost part of the school, and is also keeping an eye on several of his students.

However, when he used his telekinetic powers to investigate, the innermost room turned out to be just an ordinary empty room, with no one inside.

If the gatekeeper wasn't lying and his source was correct, then there's definitely something fishy about the innermost room.

Now that he knew his target, Gu Ran stopped testing him.

He walked directly into the Taifeng Martial Arts Hall as if he were in an empty place, and the people of the Taifeng Martial Arts Hall did not dare to stop him at all. They just retreated and retreated, maintaining a "safe distance" from Gu Ran, euphemistically called "monitoring".

Of course, such a "safe distance" is only their own opinion.

In reality, given their strength, if Gu Ran really wanted to deal with them, as long as they were in a place within Canglong City that could be detected by mental power, the only outcome would be "death".

"Gu Ran, you actually dare to come back! There's no place for you in Canglong City anymore! If you know what's good for you, leave now! Our Martial Arts Alliance has dozens of martial arts grandmasters, and we're not so easy to bully!"

Finally, someone who seemed capable of taking charge appeared.

Strong and muscular, with muscles like dragons.

A martial arts master who looks very intimidating.

However, what he said was completely contrary to his appearance; it was not a threat, but clearly fear.

On the surface, they said the toughest words, but the content of their words was only to tell Gu Ran to back down, without mentioning the "serious consequences" of not backing down.

However, involving the entire Martial Arts Alliance only makes its weaknesses more apparent.

Chen Ruozhi looked bitter; he had no other choice.

Gu Ran's strength was simply beyond his ability to resist. Even if all the martial arts masters in the Martial Arts Alliance were combined, he doubted whether they could defeat Gu Ran.

After all, the martial arts alliance consists of dozens of martial arts masters who seem incredibly powerful, but they all have their own agendas and it's impossible for them to cooperate closely. It would be good enough if they didn't sabotage each other.

On the one hand, he had to stand up and stop Gu Ran from continuing to cause trouble; on the other hand, he was also afraid that Gu Ran would lack martial ethics and beat him up unilaterally.

So after much deliberation, I chose these words that seemed incredibly forceful, but in reality, they did not offend the other party in the slightest.

Of course, if Gu Ran really doesn't listen to his "good advice," then he'll exchange a few blows with Gu Ran, then pretend to be outmatched and immediately retreat.

In this way, he has fulfilled his obligations and protected himself at the same time, and no one else can say anything about it.

In any case, Gu Ran is indeed powerful; this has long been a widely acknowledged fact.

He was able to exchange a couple of blows with Gu Ran, which meant he had fully fulfilled his duty.

Although everyone knows he excels in defense, this is Gu Ran after all. He's already quite impressive after exchanging a couple of moves.

In a short while, Chen Ruozhi had already come up with reasons to refute others.

"I'm looking for Zhang Shenghe."

Gu Ran glanced at Chen Ruozhi indifferently, and the other party's information instantly surfaced in his mind.

Chen Ruozhi is a veteran martial arts master at Taifeng Martial Arts Academy. He is skilled in defense, and while he may appear rough, he is actually very meticulous. He is a person who appears rugged but is extremely cautious.

Such a powerful opponent is not suitable to be dealt with using telekinesis.

Gu Ran made a decision in an instant and then drew the nameless sword.

He was in a hurry.

Seeing Gu Ran pull out the nameless sword, Chen Ruozhi had a question mark on his head.

?

I've never heard of Gu Ran being skilled with a sword.

Could it be that Gu Ran was hiding his true abilities before?

What a despicable thing!

Chen Ruozhi cursed inwardly.

Although he himself hides his true strength, the strength he usually displays is actually much weaker than his real strength.

However, he was quite angry about other old silver coins that he had collected.

It seems I need to show my true strength.

Chen Ruozhi took a deep breath.

In an instant, his body turned into a metallic sheen.

Without shouting out the name of his move or giving any "warning" before attacking, Chen Ruozhi suddenly launched an attack on Gu Ran.

Extremely insidious.

A sneak attack is also a valid tactic.

Chen Ruozhi said to himself.

He said he would exchange two moves, and after the sneak attack, he would exchange one more move with Gu Ran before retreating!

Although Chen Ruozhi's sneak attack was sudden, Gu Ran, who possessed telekinesis, had already been monitoring her every move.

Not only was there no element of surprise, but on the contrary, because the opponent was not good at attacking and the moves were ordinary, Gu Ran thought they were ridiculously slow.

"Too slow, it's a waste of my time."

Gu Ran moved swiftly, casually flicking his sword upwards.

Immediately, Gu Ran appeared behind Chen Ruozhi.

Sheath the sword.

"The true meaning of swordsmanship... is this what it means?"

Chen Ruozhi smiled wryly.

Then, he could no longer utter a second word, and blood streaks appeared diagonally upwards from his dantian.

The blood vessels expanded and split open.

Finally, the body was cut in two, and its internal organs spilled onto the ground.

His eyes revealed deep regret.

If he knew that Gu Ran had already grasped the true meaning of swordsmanship, he certainly wouldn't have thought of exchanging a few blows with Gu Ran before retreating.

Gu Ran ignored him and continued walking towards the innermost part of the Taifeng Martial Arts Hall.

Although Chen Ruozhi was much stronger than the gatekeeper outside, to him, the two were essentially no different; both could be dealt with in one move.

Having identified his target, he was too lazy to interrogate him any further.

He needs to catch up with time!

Although he didn't know exactly when he was catching up, Gu Ran felt a sense of urgency to catch up.

Everyone who stood in his way was someone who wanted to waste his time.

After Gu Ran defeated Chen Ruozhi in one move, those who had been monitoring Gu Ran from a distance immediately screamed in fear.

Although they had some expectation of Gu Ran's strength, they did not expect that Gu Ran's strength would ultimately far exceed their expectations.

For a moment, even though they were so far apart, they suddenly felt unsafe.

"Can the Martial Arts Alliance really stand up to such a powerful Gu Ran?"

"One of the people 'monitoring' Gu Ran muttered to himself."

"Even if the Martial Arts Alliance is no match for him, surely someone in the vast Azure Dragon City can handle Gu Ran..."

The other person "monitoring" Gu Ran tried to comfort himself and his companion, but in the end, his own voice grew softer and softer, and he became increasingly insecure.

In the vast Canglong City, is there really anyone who can stop Gu Ran?

Only when you are Gu Ran’s enemy can you truly feel his power!

With Chen Ruozhi dead, Gu Ran suddenly felt that the road ahead was much quieter.

It turns out that there were still people who dared to glare at him from afar, and some were even eager to jump out and fight for the martial arts dojo.

But once Chen Ruozhi died, everyone's gaze toward him immediately turned to fear.

As soon as he got close enough to them, they became like headless flies, frantically scurrying about in all directions, just trying to get away from him.

"The feeling of being feared... seems not so bad. At least, no one dares to stop me anymore. With fewer flies around, it's much quieter..."

Gu Ran murmured.

When Gu Ran walked to the innermost room of the Taifeng Martial Arts Hall, his mental perception became clear, and he could sense that there were indeed several people imprisoned inside.

"The demon's disguise of a location will lose its effectiveness as the distance increases."

Gu Ran concluded in his mind.

Bang!

Gu Ran's mental power transformed into an invisible giant hammer, which smashed onto the ancient-style gate.

The giant hammer easily smashed the gate, sending splinters of wood flying.

Gu Ran frowned slightly.

Contrary to expectations, everything went surprisingly smoothly.
