The masked man with a bloody hole on his forehead fell down, hitting the ground with a dull sound, and died instantly.

For a moment, everyone was shocked.

what happens?

How could someone suddenly fall to the ground and die? Among them, Manager Zhang was so shocked that his eyes widened.

He just saw the golden light coming out from Chen An's finger and recognized that this was the second level of the golden finger - golden light emission! But how is this possible!

The magic of Golden Finger is notoriously difficult to practice.

If a cultivator with ordinary talent wants to cultivate the second level of golden light emission, it will take at least several decades.

The effort and reward are totally disproportionate, and the cost-effectiveness is extremely low.

No one will practice it.

Otherwise, it is a magic spell after all, how could it be sold for only 100 low-grade spirit stones? Then the question is, how did Chen An, a mere fourth-level Qi Refining cultivator, manage to practice the golden finger to the second level in such a short time? It's really weird!

Manager Zhang was completely puzzled and his face was full of doubt about life.

“Buzz!”

There was a sound of a blade rubbing against the air.

At the moment when everyone was distracted, the masked man from Black Iron Villa, who had reached the seventh level of Qi Refining, launched a sneak attack without any moral principles and slashed at Manager Zhang's head with a knife.

Fortunately, Manager Zhang reacted quickly and dodged the fatal knife by turning sideways.

But he didn't dodge completely, and a cut was made on his right shoulder. Blood instantly seeped out and soaked a large area of ​​his clothes.

After his sneak attack failed, the masked man at the seventh level of Qi Refining immediately distanced himself from Manager Zhang. He was afraid that the other party would find an opportunity to counterattack, so he was very cautious.

Then, he yelled at the lower-level accomplices on the carriage side, "What are you still standing there for? Let's end this quickly!!!"

Suddenly hearing this roar, several masked men who were originally frightened by the golden light emitted by Chen An immediately rushed towards Chen An with knives in their hands, looking ferocious on their faces.

However, before he had taken a few steps, he suddenly felt his whole body going limp and weak, and he looked shaky.

An experienced masked man realized immediately that he was poisoned!

"Quick, eat something to detoxify..."

"……puff!"

The masked man was about to speak out to warn his accomplices, but before he could finish his words, he was hit on the head by a burst of golden light and fell to the ground with a thud.

“Puff…Puff…Puff!”

A series of dull sounds were heard.

All the poisoned masked men were shot in the head by a flash of golden light and died instantly.

These masked men who were killed by headshots all had low cultivation levels.

Except for one cultivator who is at the fifth level of Qi Refining, the rest are all low-level cultivators at the third or fourth level of Qi Refining.

With the cartilage powder in his body, he had no power to fight back against Chen An's golden light attack and could only die on the spot unwillingly.

"Manager Zhang, let me help you!"

Chen An shouted, but did not step forward to join the fight. Instead, he continued to stay where he was to provide remote support, using golden light to assist Manager Zhang in killing the opponent.

Manager Zhang was originally at a disadvantage and had been on the passive defensive.

Now with Chen An's support, the situation was turned around in an instant, from disadvantage to advantage.

So, he began to take the initiative and his style of play was extremely aggressive.

The only remaining masked man knew that the situation was hopeless, so he decided not to continue fighting with the two men. He fought and retreated all the way, intending to withdraw.

How could Chen An do what the other party wanted? He couldn't sleep well at night after letting the tiger go back to the mountains.

So he immediately jumped off the carriage and risked his life to chase the retreating masked man, vowing to kill him here.

Manager Zhang had the same idea and kept chasing after him, beating him up madly.

Chen An was responsible for long-range assistance, while Manager Zhang was responsible for close combat attacks. The two cooperated with each other and beat the masked man, who had reached the seventh level of Qi Refining, into a state of disarray.

But no matter how embarrassed he was, the masked man had no intention of fighting back.

Just defending and retreating continuously.

It was not until the next second, when a golden light shone off his mask, revealing his true face, that he suddenly stopped running.

"Manager Ouyang, why is it you?!"

After seeing the true face of the masked man, Manager Zhang in front was shocked.

This masked man, who he had always believed to be a monk from the Black Iron Villa, was actually a member of the Bamboo Leaf Gang!

Moreover, he was also the manager of another cheap area who was his colleague! Was he trying to blame the monks of Black Iron Villa for what he had done, or was he an undercover agent planted by Black Iron Villa?

Manager Zhang had a lot of thoughts in his mind, but he still couldn't figure it out, so he could only ask directly: "Manager Ouyang, what is going on?"

Manager Ouyang ignored him and silently took out a red pill from his arms and threw it into his mouth.

It was the Red Blood Pill! An evil medicine that could improve one's cultivation in a short period of time, but would later damage one's foundation! Steward Zhang recognized the evil medicine and immediately swung his sword at Steward Ouyang.

The other party would rather damage his foundation in order to improve his temporary strength in a short period of time. What else could this be except to silence him? He must be killed with a sword before the other party's medicine takes effect, otherwise there will be big trouble next.

“Ding——”

Deacon Zhang swung his sword, but was easily blocked by the opponent's knife.

Seeing this, Chen An did not just watch the show. He frantically provided fire support from a distance, continuously shooting golden light at Manager Ouyang.

But unfortunately, the other party dodged them all.

Manager Ouyang now has bloodshot eyes, bulging muscles all over his body, and his aura is suddenly surging.

His strength was approaching the eighth level of Qi Refining.

It's not something a low-level cultivator like him, who is only at the fourth level of Qi Refining, can do.

“Buzz!”

Suddenly, Manager Ouyang flashed in front of Chen An and punched him on the forehead, trying to get rid of this annoying fly first.

Relying on his spiritual awareness which far exceeded that of ordinary cultivators, Chen An reacted quickly and dodged the fatal punch.

However, he only dodged the fatal blow and not the punch.

The forehead was spared, but instead the shoulder was grazed by the opponent's fist.

“Crack!”

Just heard this sound.

The next second, Chen An flew backwards and crashed into a patch of grass, his life or death unknown.

Upon seeing this, Manager Zhang immediately turned around and ran away without saying a word, choosing to leave Chen An alone.

He had no confidence at all that he could defeat Manager Ouyang, who had improved his strength, so he chose to die rather than himself and went ahead.

However, how could Manager Ouyang let him get away?

Without bothering to deal with Chen An in the bushes, he turned around and chased after the fleeing Manager Zhang.

Manager Zhang was not fast and was caught up by him in an instant.

Seeing that he really couldn't escape, Manager Zhang immediately took out all the valuables on him and said to Manager Ouyang:

"Manager Ouyang, this matter has nothing to do with me. I didn't see anything today. I have 88 middle-grade spirit stones hidden under my desk in the office area of ​​the cheap area. They are my savings for the past thirty years. I will give them all to you now. They are enough for you to go back to Black Iron Villa and live happily for decades. There is no need to suffer losses together with me."

"I want the spirit stone, and I want your life too."

After saying that, Manager Ouyang rushed forward with all his might.

As an undercover agent of Black Iron Villa, he had spent more than ten years to climb to his current position in the Bamboo Leaf Gang. How could he just go back like that?

Wouldn’t this mean all the previous efforts have been wasted?

In a few years, Black Iron Villa will go into full-scale war with the Bamboo Leaf Gang. By then, he will need the identity of Bamboo Leaf Forest Manager to help him complete some secret tasks.

"In that case, let's die together!!!"

Manager Zhang's eyes turned red and he gritted his teeth, knowing that the other party would not let him go today. He chose to counterattack before his death, determined to drag the other party down with him.
