186: Chapter 186 Killing Wu Sheng

Soon, Chen Hu arrived outside Lingzhou City.

After ordering the Puppet to descend and hide nearby, Chen Hu utilized his Earth Escape Divine Ability to head into the city.

His visit to Lingzhou City this time was not to continue targeting Mingjian Villa, but rather to deal with Wu Sheng.

He had severely injured Jia Yan and caused Wu Qianfan to lose all face.

If it was truly as Feng Chengyu had said, Wu Sheng would definitely take crazy revenge on him.

Since that was the case, why shouldn't he strike first?

When one lacks strength, it is natural to keep a low profile and lay low.

If one has the strength but continues to lay low, then one becomes a coward.

Although he was only in the Early Stage of the Organ Refining Realm now.

He had many methods and might not necessarily lose to the Blood Refining Realm Wu Sheng.

Before eating, he had gone to the secret chamber and learned the location of the Wu Family from Granny Long.

Upon arriving in Lingzhou City, Chen Hu first identified his direction and then continued to burrow towards the Wu Family.

As an emerging Blood Refining Family, the Wu Family had built a huge manor covering hundreds of acres.

Although Lingzhou City could not be considered a place where every inch of land was worth gold, such a massive manor still held immense value.

He activated his Spiritual Sense, and the entire manor was now under the coverage of Chen Hu's Spiritual Sense.

It had to be said, Wu Sheng was truly worthy of his background in a Gang, having set up numerous mechanisms and traps within this manor.

If it were an ordinary assassin, they would likely have been killed by these mechanisms and traps before even seeing Wu Sheng's face.

Even if they weren't killed, they would expose their tracks under the multitude of mechanisms and traps.

Besides the mechanisms and traps, there were also twelve patrol squads within the manor, each consisting of 10 people, led by a Bone Refining Realm Martial Artist, with the other nine members being in the Tendon Refining Realm.

Moreover, they were all equipped with Divine Weapon-grade rapid-fire hand crossbows.

Chen Hu was certain that if a Marrow Refining Martial Artist were to sneak in, a patrol squad coordinating with the terrain's mechanisms and traps could, even if they couldn't take down the Marrow Refining Martial Artist, at least severely injure them.

In addition to the 12 patrol squads, there were also 4 Organ Refining experts lurking within the manor, and through his Eye of Insight, Chen Hu learned of their cultivation levels and identities.

One was in the Late-stage Refining Viscera, one in the Mid Organ-Refining Realm, and two were in the Early Stage of the Organ Refining Realm; these four were all members of the Eight Ghosts under Wu Sheng's command.

After a slight hesitation, Chen Hu used his Earth Escape Divine Ability to arrive beneath the Bloodthirsty Ghost, one of the Eight Ghosts.

This Bloodthirsty Ghost's cultivation was only in the Early Stage of the Organ Refining Realm, so he took out a loyalty card, locked onto the target, and silently recited "use".

Immediately, an invisible light entered the Bloodthirsty Ghost's body, and in an instant, it twisted his will, making him a loyal follower of Chen Hu.

Chen Hu appeared, planted a sound transmission gu on the Bloodthirsty Ghost, and then immediately burrowed away.

Soon, Chen Hu used the loyalty card again to twist the will of another ghost, the Black-Hearted Ghost, making him his loyal follower as well.

After planting a sound transmission gu on him too, Chen Hu burrowed beneath the Impermanence Ghost, who had cultivation in the Mid Organ-Refining Realm.

He still used the loyalty card on him, and although the target struggled for two seconds, the enslavement was successful.

After planting a sound transmission gu on the target again, Chen Hu used his escape art to head towards the place where Wu Sheng was located.

If a Family wants to become powerful, it must have many offspring, so ever since Wu Sheng established the Wu Family, he had been taking concubines and had produced many children.

Therefore, tonight, Wu Sheng was also "making people," and the object of his "making people" was his newly taken concubine.

She was young and had decent talent, reaching the Earth-grade, so the chance of giving birth to high-talent offspring was very high.

Because of his confidence in his own strength, inside this courtyard, apart from a few maids, there were only two ordinary guards outside the courtyard.

Chen Hu, who had burrowed nearby, had an extra card in his hand—it was a Clone card.

Silently reciting "use," a Clone materialized.

Next, Chen Hu took out an invisibility card and used it on himself, and also activated several pieces of the War God set.

In a flash, Chen Hu arrived before the room door.

"Bang!" He flew up and kicked the door open.

Wu Sheng, who was in the middle of "making people," was slightly startled.

In a flash, he landed by the bedside, his sharp eyes coldly scanning the entire room, yet he discovered nothing.

Just at this moment, a terrifying blade light appeared before him.

He subconsciously wanted to dodge, but felt as if his Divine Soul had been fiercely struck by an iron hammer, the intense pain almost causing him to lose all ability to think.

But in his haste, he still mobilized the True Qi within his body, forming a golden True Qi shield on the surface of his body.

"Puff!" The blade light was unbelievably sharp, easily slicing through Wu Sheng's body and cutting him in two.

Chen Hu, who had made the move, couldn't help but be slightly stunned; he hadn't expected to succeed so easily.

The next moment, he waved his hand and collected Wu Sheng's corpse, as this was the corpse of a Blood Refining expert, which was excellent nourishment for the Heaven-Swallowing Vine.

"Master!" Seeing her master cut in two by a blade light and then seeing the corpse disappear into thin air, the concubine on the bed finally woke from her dream and let out a startled cry.

Chen Hu ignored her and burrowed directly towards the Wu Family's treasury.

Soon, he arrived at the Wu Family's treasury, and looking at this massive underground treasury, Chen Hu immediately became impolite.

Collecting gold and silver, various weapons, various rare medicinal herbs, Spirit Medicine, Spirit Grain, exotic beast meat, silver notes and gold notes, and Medicinal Pill.

It took a full two minutes for Chen Hu to clear out the entire Wu Family treasury.

Burrowing out of the treasury, Chen Hu scanned with his Spiritual Sense and discovered that all four ghosts had arrived at that courtyard and were asking Wu Sheng's concubine what exactly had happened.

When they learned that it was very likely that Wu Sheng had been killed, the expressions on the faces of the four ghosts became exceptionally ugly.

Of course, apart from the Romantic Ghost, the other three ghosts were pretending, because they knew that Wu Sheng had most likely died under their master's blade.

"Should I take the opportunity to finish off the Romantic Ghost as well?" Chen Hu thought to himself.

After slaying Wu Sheng with one blade strike, his confidence had skyrocketed, and at the same time, he also felt that he had severely underestimated his own strength.

Among the Eight Ghosts under Wu Sheng's command, there were two in the Late-stage Refining Viscera—one was the current Romantic Ghost, and the other was the Vixen Ghost.

This Romantic Ghost loved beautiful women, while the Vixen Ghost loved handsome youths; moreover, they were husband and wife, and who knew how many green hats they had put on each other.

"Clone, use the Star Blade, kill the Romantic Ghost!" Chen Hu ordered the Clone lurking outside the courtyard.

Originally, he had summoned the Clone with the intention of having it use the Eight Star Blades to ambush Wu Sheng, but as it turned out, Wu Sheng had been slain by his own blade, and the Clone had been summoned for nothing.

Receiving Chen Hu's order, the Clone began to condense a flying blade; previously, when Chen Hu was in the Marrow Refining Realm, it took about ten breaths to condense a flying blade, but now that he had reached the Organ Refining Realm, it took three breaths to condense a golden energy flying blade.

"Go!" The golden energy flying blade left the Clone's palm, shooting into the room like a streak of golden lightning.

And the Romantic Ghost in the room felt a sense of impending doom, so just as he intended to flee from his spot, the golden energy flying blade directly entered his body.

Then, a golden flame enveloped his body, and within the span of a breath, his body was burned into a pile of black ashes.

"Damn!" Seeing this scene through his Spiritual Sense, Chen Hu couldn't help but exclaim; the power of the Eight Star Blades seemed a bit perverted, as a Late-stage Refining Viscera expert couldn't even block one of his blade strikes.
