Hongmeng Heavenly Book

As Xu Sheng stepped into the main hall, a powerful surge of spiritual energy began to overwhelm everyone.

This caused the expressions of many elders to change drastically, and they even found it difficult to breathe.

They felt no pain; instead, they were overjoyed and excited.

"Lord of the City, you've finally emerged from seclusion!" Xu Kun exclaimed in delight.

A smile flickered in Xu Sheng's eyes as he said calmly, "What, you already miss me after only a month of seclusion?"

Xu Kun said anxiously, "City Lord, it's like this..."

Then.

He then told Xu Sheng what had happened in Qingzhou City.

Xu Sheng's smile suddenly froze, and his killing intent surged, instantly enveloping the hall in a powerful chill.

His face contorted in a grotesque grimace as he snarled, "That little beast dared to kill my people!"

"And they even brazenly killed people from the City Lord's Mansion?"

"They're simply not taking this city lord seriously at all."

"If this kid were still just a piece of trash, I, the city lord, could let him live to be a hundred years old. But now, he is a man who is destined to die."

Xu Yue said, "Father, Gu Changsheng must have obtained some kind of opportunity."

"If we can uncover this opportunity, or this secret, I think my father might be able to get even closer to it."

Xu Sheng nodded.

"Well said."

"I, the city lord, have decided on this kid's secret."

"Even Gu Cheng was killed by me, the city lord. How could such an ant be a match for me?"

His eyes were filled with greed.

"We set off for the Yan family."

"Take down the traitor."

"Yes."

As soon as Xu Sheng finished speaking, the City Lord's Mansion immediately dispatched hundreds of guards towards the Yan family's location.

The commotion was so great that it covered the entire city of Qingzhou.

"What's going on?"

"It's said that she went there for Gu Changsheng."

"Gu Changsheng? That good-for-nothing son-in-law of the Yan family?"

"Be careful what you say."

"That Gu Changsheng is no useless son-in-law. Not long ago, Gu Changsheng slaughtered the entire Yan family, including the head of the Yan family, his wife, and the second young lady of the Yan family."

"After killing them, they also killed Xu Tian, ​​the captain of the city lord's guard."

"Captain Xu? He's a master at the first level of the Spirit Sea Realm."

"Who can argue with that? Gu Changsheng is terrifyingly strong right now."

"With such a large force from the City Lord's Mansion heading towards the Yan family, even if Gu Changsheng is strong, he can't possibly be stronger than the City Lord's Mansion, right?"

"That's for sure. I've also received news that the city lord's strength has already broken through."

"..."

The Yan family.

scoff.

Gu Changsheng's eyes widened, filled with endless killing intent. He extended his divine soul, and although he could only touch the outside of the Yan family, he was still able to detect the movement.

"It seems the people from the city lord's mansion are coming to kill you," the woman in the book couldn't help but laugh.

Gu Changsheng sneered, "Want to kill me? With their strength?"

"In this life, I will be even more ruthless than in the last."

"Those who provoke me will be killed without mercy."

With a hissing sound.

He stood up abruptly.

His bones trembled incessantly, like thunder.

"Prepare to unleash another massacre."

Gu Changsheng narrowed his eyes, a cold glint flashing deep within them.

Outside the Yan family mansion, figures were bustling about.

Xu Sheng led a group of men and stood there menacingly.

"The son-in-law of the Yan family has fallen into the demonic path, cruelly murdering his wife, father-in-law, mother-in-law, and the entire Yan family! Now that I, the city lord, have personally come here, I will surely eliminate this son to prevent future troubles and rid the people of this scourge!" Xu Sheng roared angrily.

Upon hearing this, everyone present changed their expressions drastically.

Just as Xu Sheng was leading his men to enter the Yan family to capture Gu Changsheng.

Footsteps could be heard coming from the Yan family home.

Gradually.

A figure slowly appeared.

"Gu Changsheng?" Xu Sheng stared at Gu Changsheng with chilling eyes, his voice icy cold: "Kneel down now, or I, the city lord, will grind you to dust."

Gu Changsheng looked at Xu Sheng and sneered, "City Lord, you've really put a huge accusation on me."

Xu Sheng looked at Gu Changsheng, narrowed his eyes, and his chill intensified.

eccentric.

Gu Changsheng seems like a completely different person.

He had also met Gu Changsheng before.

As a son-in-law of the Yan family, he lost his innate sword bone and had no talent for cultivation. He was always subservient to them.

However, Gu Changsheng is now showing his true colors.

Incredible.

It's that good-for-nothing Gu Changsheng.

Xu Yue's gaze towards Gu Changsheng also became strange; they could all sense the change in Gu Changsheng.

But now that they've arrived, they naturally can't be intimidated by Gu Changsheng.

"Gu Changsheng, you killed your wife and your own family. You have already fallen into the demonic path. Why don't you surrender immediately?"

She snorted coldly.

"The person next to you in bed?"

"Your family?"

Gu Changsheng's lips curled into a disdainful smile: "The City Lord's Mansion, your news travels way too slowly, doesn't it?"

"I divorced Yan Ruyu not long ago, so Yan Ruyu and I have nothing to do with each other."

"The Yan family is certainly not my maternal family. To be precise, they can only be considered my former maternal family."

He said it calmly.

Divorce Yan Ruyu?

Many people stared wide-eyed at Gu Changsheng, finding it hard to believe that this sycophantic son-in-law had actually divorced the second young lady of the Yan family.

Wasn't he head over heels in love with the second young lady of the Yan family?

How could that be?

They broke up with each other.

You're lying.

Xu Sheng said angrily.

Gu Changsheng laughed and said, "City Lord, look, that letter of divorce is still floating there."

He glanced at the Yan family's courtyard.

This made Xu Sheng tremble with anger.

He roared, "You bastard, but that's no excuse for killing innocent people!" Xu Sheng retorted angrily, "This is my territory, and what you're doing is putting me in a difficult position."

"So I'm going to lock you up in the city lord's dungeon. Are you willing?"

Gu Changsheng scoffed, "City Lord, you must be joking. You haven't forgotten, have you? My parents' lives are still in your hands!"

Xu Sheng frowned. This kid really knew everything. But he smiled coldly to himself. So what if he knew? He still couldn't escape death.

"What? The Gu family patriarch and his wife were both killed by the city lord?"

Everyone present stared wide-eyed in disbelief.

Everyone looked at Xu Sheng.

Were the Gu family patriarch and his kin killed by the city lord?

"Gu Changsheng, stop deceiving the world! Why would my City Lord's Mansion want to kill Gu Cheng and the others?" Xu Kun said angrily, staring coldly at Gu Changsheng.

Now that the kid knows...

They must not be left behind.

Gu Changsheng smiled coldly, "There are too many reasons. Even if I told you, you would deny it, so there's no need to explain again."

"You will all die today. Go down and join my parents."

A chilling voice resounded, and the aura around him grew even stronger.

Gazing at the aura surrounding Gu Changsheng, Xu Sheng's eyes gleamed with greed. This little beast must have a secret. He roared furiously, "Everyone, attack! Anyone who injures Gu Changsheng will be rewarded with a thousand low-grade spirit stones. Anyone who seriously injures Gu Changsheng will be rewarded with twenty thousand!"

Boom! As soon as these words were spoken, everyone was like they had been injected with chicken blood, and they rushed towards Gu Changsheng to attack.

"kill!"

"..."
