But Gu Yuan suddenly thought that even if he returned to the Blood Chamber of Commerce, he might not be safe, because although the Blood Chamber of Commerce had the two funny guys, the Second Master and the Third Master, would they really protect him as they said before?

Thinking of this, Gu Yuan gritted his teeth and endured the pain in his lungs caused by the extreme stimulation of the spiritual energy in his body. Gu Yuan continued to work hard to create distance between himself and the two people behind him.

"Huh? This kid is quite interesting. His speed has actually increased even more?"

The big man followed behind Gu Yuan and said in surprise.

"This kid is quite interesting. He actually managed to leave before us. It seems that he has already noticed our arrival. His attainments in soul power are quite profound. It seems that he is really an alchemist. Do we really need to chase him?"

The executioner asked hesitantly. It wasn't that he was afraid of Gu Yuan. After all, even if Gu Yuan was an alchemist, his grade would definitely not be too high, because alchemy required the support of spiritual energy. People with strength at the spiritual master level could only refine fourth-grade pills at best.

And judging from Gu Yuan’s young appearance, he is already a third-grade alchemist.

What the executioner really fears is the person who might be behind Gu Yuan.

After all, Gu Yuan is so young, but he possesses the demon fire that no one else has. Others don’t know how difficult it is to refine the demon fire, but the big man certainly knows it. It can be said that it is a life-and-death struggle. Without the protection of a master, it would be impossible for the young man in front to accomplish it!

If the person behind him is a fifth-grade alchemist or even a sixth-grade alchemist, wouldn't they have stirred up a hornet's nest?

"What? Are you scared?" the big man suddenly slowed down and asked.

The executioner smiled bitterly and said, "It's not that I'm afraid, I'm just a little worried. Something like demonic fire, even the lowest level, can't be separated from a demonic beast without a few powerful Spirit Kings. So I'm worried that there's someone behind that kid."

The big man pondered for a moment and said, "Old Ghost, why don't you leave first? What you said does make sense, but I don't want to give up. I want to give it a try. What if this kid is really lucky? I can directly extract the demonic fire from him and refine it. As long as I refine the demonic fire, I believe I can enter the realm of Spirit King and establish my own sect! Isn't this what you have wished for many years, Old Ghost?"

The executioner's bitter smile widened, and he said, "Brother, it's not that I don't want to help you, but this is the best I can do in my life. I really don't want to take any more risks."

The big man said with a smile: "What are you talking about? How can I blame you? Well, don't get involved in this matter. If the worst happens..."

The big man took a deep breath and suddenly sped up as he ran towards Gu Yuan, leaving only a voice behind: "Then try your best to collect a complete body for me!"

The executioner knew what the worst-case scenario he was talking about was, and instead of stopping the big man, he chose to turn around and leave in the opposite direction.

The strong prey on the weak; this is the law of survival in Boulder City.

Gu Yuan was still constantly urging the spiritual energy in his body to escape at a rapid speed. A strong smell of blood even began to appear in his mouth. He knew that this was a call for his body to reach its limit.

But Gu Yuan didn't dare to stop, because the god of death was following him. However, Gu Yuan was also thankful, because he felt another breath disappear behind him, which meant that there was only one person left behind him, which gave him a little more hope.

He took out a pill and swallowed it. The cool feeling made him feel a little better, but it was soon suppressed by the strong smell of blood.

"Damn it! This kid is really capable of holding on. He hasn't even used up all his spiritual energy after going through a battle. Is it because of the elixir?"

After the big man said goodbye to the executioner, he followed Gu Yuan alone. The temptation of the demon fire made him willing to take the risk.

"Boy, no matter what, I won't let you escape this time!"

The big man urged the spiritual energy in his body and his speed kept increasing. In just a dozen breaths, he was only a hundred feet away from Gu Yuan.

Gu Yuan's face almost turned green. He had been maintaining the maximum speed, but he was caught up.

"Boy, stop it!"

The voice of the big man came from behind Gu Yuan. Gu Yuan sneered and did not slow down at all. He ignored the big man because he wanted to use all his energy to escape instead of wasting it here.

"Boy, I'll say it again, stop. I won't hurt you as long as you agree to one condition of mine." The big man slowly followed behind Gu Yuan, while paying attention to the surrounding situation. He wanted to see if there was a strong man protecting this boy.

Gu Yuan was slightly distracted. What was going on? Could it be that they were not from the Black Ghost Sect?

"You're not from the Black Ghost Gate?"

Gu Yuan asked without turning his head. What puzzled him was that the big man clearly had the ability to catch up with him, but why didn't he catch up?

"Black Ghost Sect? Boy, did you misunderstand? I am not from the Black Ghost Sect!" the big man replied.

Gu Yuan's face darkened, and he cursed: "Then why the hell are you chasing me?"

The big man was stunned. He didn't expect Gu Yuan to dare to speak to him in such a tone, but he didn't care. He said, "So why don't you stop?"

"You're not a fucking member of the Black Ghost Sect, so why are you chasing me?" Gu Yuan cursed.

Damn, after all this time, it turns out he’s not from the Black Ghost Sect?

"So please stop so I can talk to you."

"I fucking believe your lies. I won't stop. I won't stop until you fucking get away from me!"

A nameless anger rose in Gu Yuan's heart. Was he being played?

Why did you chase me without even recognizing me? What did you want?

Gu Yuan felt that even if this guy was not a member of the Black Ghost Sect, he was definitely a guy with bad intentions.

The big man had never seen such an arrogant person, but he didn't dare to take action now. He thought it would not be too late to observe before taking action.

"Um?"

Gu Yuan sensed the position of the big man behind him, with a puzzled look on his face, "This guy can obviously catch up with me, why doesn't he catch up?"

So, Gu Yuan slowed down a little bit, and then found that the big man behind him also slowed down a little bit.

Gu Yuan lowered his height a little bit again, and the big man also lowered his height a little bit. Anyway, he kept a distance of a hundred feet from Gu Yuan.

Now Gu Yuan felt even more puzzled. He had only been in Giant Stone City for two days, and he shouldn't have any enemies except the Black Ghost Sect. Then, since he was not a member of the Black Ghost Sect, why was he here?

Suddenly, the words that the Third Master had reminded him before popped into Gu Yuan’s mind.

"Demon fire!"

Gu Yuan's pupils constricted, and he immediately thought of the demon fire. He was not his enemy, and he should not have seen the guy behind him, so he might have come for the demon fire.

Having guessed this possibility, Gu Yuan did not relax at all. Instead, his mind was constantly working, thinking about how to get out of this situation.

"I don't know what kind of force is on the other side of this forest. I hope it's not the Black Ghost Sect." Gu Yuan thought secretly.
