17: Chapter 17 The Death of Jiang Laowu

Qin Xiaogan stood silently in the dust-covered alley of the West District slums.

The blood on his body dripped onto the ground, one drop at a time.

Qin Xiaogan said calmly, "Come out."

Qin Xiaogan's voice echoed layer upon layer through the dilapidated alley.

A moment later, a figure slowly walked out.

Fifth Brother Jiang had a trace of a disdainful smile on his face. "Kid, keep running."

Qin Xiaogan asked, "What do you want?"

"Hahahaha." Fifth Brother Jiang acted as if he had heard the biggest joke in the world.

Fifth Brother Jiang pointed at his severed arm and said coldly, "I've come to settle our score."

Qin Xiaogan said in a deep voice, "Are you not afraid of punishment from the Investigation Bureau?"

Fifth Brother Jiang looked at Qin Xiaogan playfully. "The Four Kings Pavilion caused chaos in the West District, and Gan Xiaoqin heroically sacrificed himself."

Qin Xiaogan nodded. "If that's what you say, then I can rest easy."

System, put all my balance into speed.

【Indestructible】

Fifth Brother Jiang frowned. "Wha..."

Before he could finish his sentence.

Fifth Brother Jiang realized Qin Xiaogan's figure had disappeared.

"Puchi!"

Fifth Brother Jiang felt a sharp pain in his back.

Qin Xiaogan gripped a hell kitchen knife and slashed into Fifth Brother Jiang's back.

【Ring Blade】

Fifth Brother Jiang hurriedly activated his ability.

A circle of blade shadows surrounded Fifth Brother Jiang.

"Ceng ceng!"

Fifth Brother Jiang's pupils dilated, and he exclaimed, "How is this possible!?"

Because when he turned his head, he saw the blade shadows slashing at Qin Xiaogan's body, yet they only left a faint white mark.

Qin Xiaogan watched with an indifferent expression as the blade shadows slashed across his body, one after another.

Fifth Brother Jiang lost his voice. "Impossible! You... monster, you were doing this on purpose before!"

Qin Xiaogan tightly gripped Fifth Brother Jiang's throat with his left hand.

Fifth Brother Jiang's eyes were filled with terror, and he struggled to squeeze out two words: "Spare... me."

Qin Xiaogan smiled. "Bear with it."

Before the words had even faded.

Qin Xiaogan gripped the hell kitchen knife tightly with his right hand and slashed rapidly at Fifth Brother Jiang.

Fifth Brother Jiang's body was soon covered in wounds, a gruesome sight.

His face was twisted like a pretzel, and his body kept twitching and trembling.

Fifth Brother Jiang deeply felt his life slowly slipping away.

A dull thud echoed in the filthy alley.

Fifth Brother Jiang's mangled corpse lay quietly on the ground.

Qin Xiaogan took out a handkerchief and wiped the blood from his face.

"Eat it."

The hell kitchen knife lunged joyfully toward Fifth Brother Jiang's corpse.

Soon, the alley returned to its previous state.

【Devouring complete, host defense attribute +10】

Qin Xiaogan put away the hell kitchen knife and sent a voice transmission to the three kings who were in the midst of a fierce battle: "Stop, come find me."

Upon receiving Qin Xiaogan's transmission, Wang Yi's brow relaxed, and the spiritual power around her quickly condensed into a massive hand.

Feng Tao gritted her teeth, and beads of sweat slowly seeped from her full forehead.

Damn it, this Four Kings Pavilion is really troublesome.

Just when everyone was on high alert, thinking a decisive battle was about to happen.

The massive hand that had just condensed in the sky began to expand at an extremely fast speed.

Captain Wu's expression was horrified, and he quickly shouted, "Retreat!"

Everyone hurriedly retreated.

The corners of Wang Yi's mouth lifted slightly, and she sneered, "Is this the Investigation Bureau?"

After saying this, Wang Yi jumped backward, unhurriedly.

Xiao Heizi and Liu Han also quickly vanished.

Feng Tao looked back, her brow tightly furrowed. "Wait a moment, look."

Everyone looked back in confusion.

They saw that after the massive hand in the sky expanded to its limit, it actually transformed into pieces of spiritual crystals that slowly drifted down.

Captain Wu's face turned bright red, and he cursed angrily, "Damn it! We've been tricked!"

The golden-haired beauty beside him asked cautiously, "Captain Wu, what should we do now?"

Captain Wu exhaled. "Stay in position, count the casualties."

"Yes!"

Feng Tao caught the spiritual crystals drifting down from the sky with her hand, shook her head, and smiled bitterly. "Truly impressive."

"Sister Tao! Sister Tao!"

Xiaomai said anxiously to Feng Tao, "Sister Tao, Gan Xiaoqin is missing!"

Feng Tao's peach-blossom eyes shot out two beams of cold light.

Xiaomai said in a choked voice, "Sister Tao, he suffered two attacks from a B-rank Awakened, I worry that he has already..."

Feng Tao comforted her, "It won't happen, he has great luck."

After speaking, layers of ripples rose around Feng Tao.

【Thread Seeking】

Soon, Feng Tao's delicate brows were tightly locked, and she thought to herself, "How can there be no threads?"

At the same time.

In an unknown alley, the three kings who had just been dominating the scene outside were kneeling on one knee, prostrate before a man.

Qin Xiaogan's pitch-black eyes were as deep as a cold pool, as if a thin layer of mist was drifting within them; his gaze was unfocused, revealing a thoughtful expression.

The soul potion actually provides such a massive boost to pure soul entities.

However, calling these three over wasn't to observe their attributes.

Qin Xiaogan said in an irrefutable tone, "Give me those ten bottles of high-level potion."

Wang Yi hurriedly took them from her waist and then carefully handed them to Qin Xiaogan.

Qin Xiaogan nodded in satisfaction, then thrust both hands directly into Wang Yi's chest.

Wang Yi let out a muffled groan, and her body began to flicker.

The two people kneeling on the ground kept their heads bowed, not daring to lift them even an inch.

【Primordial Smelting Furnace】

Qin Xiaogan's hands transformed into two dark vortexes, sucking the four light orbs inside Wang Yi's body into them.

"Smelt!"

Then, a brand-new light orb was spat out from the vortex.

Wang Yi gasped for breath, her delicate face already filled with pain.

Qin Xiaogan withdrew his hands and shifted his gaze to Xiao Heizi and Liu Han. "Come here."

Xiao Heizi and the other did not dare to disobey and quickly got up to come over.

Qin Xiaogan used the same method again to perform a smelting for the two of them as well.

Qin Xiaogan looked at the two of them rolling on the ground in pain and shook his head helplessly.

Wang Yi endured the sharp pain and asked cautiously, "Master, what is the meaning of this?"

Qin Xiaogan said calmly, "To increase your potential."

Wang Yi and the two on the ground were stunned.

They had long been accustomed to their master's power and mystery.

However, such god-like methods still left their hearts unable to calm down for a long time.

Qin Xiaogan asked Wang Yi, "Where are the corpses I told you to clean up?"

Wang Yi replied, "Master, they are all in the Pavilion."

Qin Xiaogan was just about to speak.

Wang Yi's dark brows suddenly furrowed tightly. "Master, the people from the Investigation Bureau are here."

Qin Xiaogan nodded and said, "You know what to do, right?"

Wang Yi hesitated for a moment and replied, "I know."

As soon as the words fell.

A massive amount of spiritual power gathered around Wang Yi and surged rapidly toward Qin Xiaogan.

Qin Xiaogan first let out a loud, shrill scream, and then was embedded into the wall by the spiritual power.

The pain in Xiao Heizi and Liu Han's bodies also gradually subsided, and the two stood up from the ground.

Liu Han's right hand struck toward Qin Xiaogan, who was in the wall, at an extremely fast speed.

A deep claw mark appeared on Qin Xiaogan's chest.

And not far away, Feng Tao and her group were searching for Qin Xiaogan's tracks with great urgency.

Suddenly, Feng Tao heard a scream.
